Who Goes Nazi? (from Harper’s 1941 and reprinted 2012; h/t Blake) By Dorothy Thompson It is an interesting and somewhat macabre parlor game to play at a large gathering of one’s acquaintances: to speculate who in a showdown would go Nazi. By now, I think I know. I have gone through the experience many times—in Germany, in Austria, and in France. I have come to know the types: the born
TRUTHINESS! “CNN Caught Staging News Segments on Syria With Actors”
Oopsie! From Friends of Syria: The primary “witness” that the mainstream media is using as a source in Syria has been caught staging fake news segments. Recent video evidence proves that “Syria Danny”, the supposed activist who has been begging for military intervention on CNN, is really just a paid actor and a liar. […] By pointing out that the mainstream media is orchestrating their entire coverage of this incident, we are
The Liberty Amendments: the discussion continues
K-Bob over at the Right Scoop is running a continuing series to discuss how practically to bring about a return to constitutionalism — based around the document’s original intent — using the amendment 2 process Mark Levin highlights in his book as a way to circumvent the entrenched DC elite. I discussed what I thought was a very important, if ancillary and theoretical (at this point), end-game question, because I
Happy Labor Day!
Unless you happen to be one of the millions who’ve left the workforce, or one of the millions who’ve been forced onto food stamps, or are one of the millions of young people who — having been fooled by Obama’s practiced cadence and sonorous platitudes — voted for the guy twice, only to find he really doesn’t care all that much about you, creating conditions for businesses that make it

Let’s fight such a hideous tradition and do something positive for September this year. What do you say? Thanks in advance to those of you who continue to keep this creaky vessel afloat. With the toddler and other obligations, it’s been tough for me to keep going, but your interest, intelligence, and observations help me learn, and that makes this all worthwhile. Even if it means people wishing your family
California: Non-citizens to sit on juries, monitor elections … [Darleen Click]
The continued dilution of American citizenship California Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation Tuesday that allows non-citizens who are permanent legal residents of the United States to serve as poll workers. (See AB 817.pdf) […] Another bill (AB 1401) passed by the California State Assembly last week and currently awaiting Brown’s signature would also allow California’s 3.4 million green card holders to sit in judgment of U.S. citizens as jurors.

The following, in its entirety, from Dennis Prager. —————————————————– The following are some of the basic postulates about America, religion, society, morality, the arts and Israel that are taught at almost every American university. America: • The United States is no better than any other country, and in some important ways it is worse than many. • On the world stage, America is an imperialist country, and domestically it mistreats
The Good News: Obama to seek Congressional approval to move against Syria … [Darleen Click]
… The Bad News: that a President following the Constitution is news.
More than just losing his balls … [Darleen Click]
The Nanny State will make sure to punish all dissent. ‘So this is what starting over looks like. I have a seven-by-seven space with two little desks in it.” Craig Zucker is remarkably good-humored, considering what he’s been through over the past year—and the tribulations that lie ahead. He’s referring to his office, rented month-to-month in a dilapidated building in a dusty corner of Brooklyn. There is construction all around,
