ISRAEL, CHURCHES, AND CONGRESSIONAL AID: MORE HIGH OCTANE SPECULATION

November 30, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

First, consider this: Hallelujah: Traditional Churches Challenge Congress On Gift Money To Israel I'm one of those that is genuinely grateful to be living in a country that is secular, for like it or not, secularism affords an unprecedented degree of freedom and tolerance, though as we all know, liberty (and I do not confuse freedom and liberty) is under assault in it. It allows religious expression, but doesn't sanction any particular version of it, though, in recent years, it has made of secularism something of a religion in an of itself, with ludicrous strictures against menorahs or … [Read more...]

PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS AND ANOTHER RETROSPECTIVE ON THE 2012 (S)ELECTION

November 23, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

Yesterday was my favorite holiday of the year, that quintessentially American holiday called Thanksgiving, where we tend to gather with family and friends, eat lots of turkey and/or ham, watch some football games (or, if you're like me, studiously avoiding them), and having long and fun conversations. Well, yesterday was no different for me, though much of my family circle is now constricted, and the groups around the table are smaller, but the conversation is no less lively, and as one might expect, was this year centered on the recent US presidential (s)election. Readers here will recall, … [Read more...]

2012 (S)ELECTION RETROSPECTIVE: THE NUMBERS THEY DON’T TALK ABOUT, AND THE QUESTIONS THEY NEVER ASK

November 21, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

Rarely do I blog about my personal feelings, or reactions, on this site, but a number of circumstances prompt me to share them. Within days of the last (s)election, two friends, each from one of the two political parties, asked me how I voted. Now, for one thing, I've made my sentiments and opinions of these "two" corrupt party machines well known: NO CONFIDENCE. But rather than trying to explain that to my friends, and that it is really a POSITIVE exercise of the vote, I was treated to the same old saw: "If you don't vote, you have no right to complain." I had to remind my friends that the … [Read more...]

NO CONFIDENCE IN THIS (S)ELECTION

November 6, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

Today is the national (s)election day in the USA, and for those of you in the rest of the world watching this carnival that occurs once every four years in this country, you have my sympathies, for the fates of so many people in so many countries, even powerful ones such as Russia or China, are tied to an increasingly corrupt process in the "leader" of the "free" world, by a voting population increasingly showing signs of systemic illiteracy and stupidity. Don't get me wrong, I am a passionate believer in liberty, and in the basic ideals upon which this nation was founded. As such, I tend … [Read more...]

TIDBIT: FEEDING THE OLIGARCHS: PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS ON THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS

October 13, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

Hear hear...! I thought I'd share this one with you from Paul Craig Roberts, addressing the "lesser of two evils" philosophy that people have been using as a voting strategy for decades, and he does so in the context of the increasing backlash against American imperialism that is sweeping across South America: Don’t Vote For Evil … [Read more...]

TIDBIT: JUSTIN RAIMONDO ON THE “HOLLOW EMPIRE”

September 24, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

Here's one that I found, in this presidential selection year when once again the American oligarchy has given us two incomparably bland sock puppets to "choose" from, that perfectly encapsulates some of what I think is the growing gulf between most Americans, and the delusional power-mad idiots on Wall Street and in Washington: The Hollow Empire See you on the flip side. … [Read more...]

TIDBIT: BARMITT OBROMNEYACK TIED TO MONSANTO

September 19, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

This one from Mr. V.T. came in today's "e-pile" of "emails", and it was just too good to pass up and I had to share it, for it seems that political weathervane Barmitt Obromneyack (the sock puppet running for the Replublithugs, not the sock puppet running for the Dummycrooks) has ties with - surprise surprise - the food-poisoning goons and mad scientists at Duponzanto (and doubtless that means that Barmitt also has "connecttions" to the FDA): Mitt Romney, Monsanto Man I'm relieved, however, that we have a "real choice" this time around between Bush-Duponzanto-backed Barmitt Obromneyack, … [Read more...]

DECISIONS DECISIONS… ROMNEY? OR OBUMMER? OR VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE

June 12, 2012 By Joseph P. Farrell

Well, now that Mitt Romney is the presumptive (s)electee of the Republithugs, and our long circus primaries and "debates" are(thankfully) over and the national theater can get on with the usual round of mud-slinging, promise-making, and shenanigans by each party's respective Wall Street sponsored sock puppet can begin ("Don't hold back Farrell, tell us what you really think of them!" "I would, if such language were acceptable in polite company.") It's worth having a little look at some of the "two" parties' candidates respective financing: Top Mitt Romney Donors: Update Oh golly oh gee, … [Read more...]

VENTING: THE MISSING VOICE IN THE DEBT DEBATE APOCALYPSE THEATER

August 8, 2011 By Joseph P. Farrell

OK...like you, I'm only human, and every now and then I have to blow off steam, to vent, otherwise, I, like you, would explode. It's been a little more than a week since the "debt debate" between the Dummycrooks in the Senate and White House, and the Republithugs in the House, and their shills on CNN, FOX, ABC, &c, all interviewing each other on what they thought about it. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty much still disgusted by it. Of course it was the usual finger-pointing: your party set record spending levels, no your party did. Our credit rating will drop from triple A status by … [Read more...]
