Bill Ayers on RussiaToday

Covers a lot of topics in 12 minutes. Mostly about building an antiwar movement.

Interesting view of how the left and right view Obama. Starts at 2:28 in video.

“One of the things that is misunderstood I think about President Obama is, he said all during the campaign. ‘I am a moderate, pragmatic, compromising politician.’  And people on the  right refuse to believe that to this day. They insist he is a secret Muslim, a secret Socialist, a secret terrorist of some kind. People on the left also distrust that statement and think secretly he is winking at them and that he has an agenda that’s to the left.”

Bible Reading Removed From Town’s Holiday Celebrations

The PC rules seem to say its OK to voice a belief on public property as long as that belief isn’t backed by a religious organization.

If a religious view is being voiced on public property there is the risk of a lawsuit.

Why has the separation of church and state has turned into denial of the existence of religion?

Separation of church and state was never meant to be a black marker to strike out beliefs we don’t agree with.

This case isn’t forcing religion on others any more that holding an environmental meeting and quoting Al Gore is forcing Gaia worship.

Petition from 100,000 People: End the War Now

It took about a thousand Special Forces troops to overthrow the Taliban in 2001. Why do we need a hundred times that number now to keep them out?

Restoring American Federalism

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYcDEZdNrA8&feature=sub

I think Federalism is the best path because corruption follows power.  Concentrating power leads to concentrated corruption; in the long run we’re better off with states having power over the federal government.

Being honest with myself, I’ve flip-flopped on the subject.

When the state law provides more freedom then I’m all for Federalism.

When the states law has less freedom, I’ll reach for the Constitution to find something unconstitutional in the state law.

How about a constitutional amendment that when the state and federal governments laws disagree, the law that provides for the most freedom wins?

If you don’t agree with me, you are a moron.

Calling other people morons to dehumanize and nullify differing views and beliefs is the reason this site was started.

This video is a very good example of “If you don’t agree with me you are clearly a “moron – mindless zombie – zombiecrat – zombiecon – troll –  idiot.”

Everyone is their neighbors mindless zombie.
