TED CRUZ Goes Off On Democrats At Jeff Sessions Hearing

THE "PROBLEM" WITH TRUMP

THE "PROBLEM" WITH TRUMP . . . is that , though rich, he is an ordinary guy in many ways. That is why he says stupid things, shoots from the hip, and says things he probably doesn't truly mean. Like many of us, he voices his inner thoughts about what is going wrong, knowing that it is really more complicated. He knows that he will have to actually put more work into things like the illegal immigrants who are in some cases model citizens today . . .those who were essentially much like refugees. We do not know why each one came. Many were desperate, and he knows that. And he knows, as an international businessman, that immigration is a real problem and open borders is an elitist goal. He knows the abject evil of radical Islam and that some of his seemingly radical statements (to the elitists and leftists) are not wrong, like restricting Muslim visas. He knew when he fired off an ill-advised shot from the hip and "insulted" John McCain, that in many ways McCain is not a strong conservative and does not always seem to have America's best interest at heart, and that McCain was attacking him. anyone can see the wrong positions of many politicians of McCain's ilk. Trump challenged McCain not veterans or POWs. He is the ordinary guy, though wealthy, that America has always needed. It is time to evict the "ruling class" the class of people who think of themselves as our permanent bosses.

A LITTLE STRAIGHT SHOOTING

A LITTLE STRAIGHT SHOOTING . . . about what is said. Huma Abedin once said that banning some or all Muslims was racist. Islam is a religion not a race, and there are issues with it's belief system in a free society. We are open to other religions that support a free society. Donald Trump spoke derogatorily in a sort of joking/sarcastic way about John McCain's capture. While we all revere such heroes, his comment that it is better to avoid capture is not wrong. McCain isn't the hero he was during Vietnam to many of us. He is too moderate and too cozy with those we perceive as crooked politicians and those who may be a threat to the Republic. When Huma's possible ties to questionable Muslim people and organizations were brought up, he jumped to defend her in a knee-jerk manner. One wonders if he knew the truth and facts, or just defended a leftist . . .and is he one. A lot of Republicans may be closely tied with questionable leftist, and Trump knows that. Another thing that is happening is that Hispanics are apparently being told that 'trump will deport them even if they are legally here. That is of course not true, and he has even said that he will study the options concerning illegals who are vested in this country and otherwise positive and productive residents. The bottom line is that misrepresentations are being made in this election and all of the time. and they are more often the tool .of the left . . . those that portray themselves as the insightful, knowledgeable young rebels defending you from the corrupt establishment. Hell they are the establishment, the biggest and worst part of it anyway. And the real establishment they have planned when they can regulate and punish every thing you do is a society built on the concept of metaphorical prison walls.

US Civil Rights Commission Targets Religious Liberty - Crisis Magazine

US Civil Rights Commission Targets Religious Liberty - Crisis Magazine: On September 7, 2016, the US Commission on Civil Rights issued a report entitled Peaceful Coexistence: Reconciling Nondiscrimination Principles with Civil Liberties. The report has not received the attention it deserves. Should the next president appoint and the Senate approve judges and justices that agree with its findings, the report will serve as a playbook …

THERE WAS NO INCOME TAX BEFORE 1913

THERE WAS NO INCOME TAX BEFORE 1913 and the Federal government was funded by trade tariffs and federal land rentals and such things. Less funding was needed because the U.S. Federal Nanny State did not exist and needed no money to take care of the world outside our borders and the world trying to sneak in our borders to steal our good life from us here. Then the jobs of government were, as they are supposed to be, protecting our borders and coasts and helping develop basic infrastructure and maintain basic law and order. The government could be helpful with some programs and sensible laws, such as those banning child labor and establishing national parks. But maybe the Federal Government still broke the law. Perhaps the use of troops against striking mine workers is one example. That came after income tax however. I believe it is illegal in the U.S. to use the military against American citizens, no matter what. And thus, the Civil War was probably an illegal Federal act. But of course the Confederates standing against Fort Sumter fired the first shot because the Feds would not close up shop there and leave. I'm not sure who was right there, but I suppose the South Carolinians were. All of you open borders folks and free traders pay more now because of the system you support. I'm all for other countries building their economies, but not on our shoulders. We take home and get to keep less money because of free trade robbing our government coffers of tariff income and open borders letting illegals in to suck from the welfare breasts engorged by our taxes.

IS THE FILIPINO FISHERMAN WHO FOUND THE WORLD'S LARGEST PEARL GETTING RIPPED OFF.

IS THE FILIPINO FISHERMAN WHO FOUND THE WORLD'S LARGEST PEARL GETTING RIPPED OFF. The article in the paper we read says he will receive a yet undisclosed reward. He found this years ago and has kept it in his home. Fishermen seek valuable items form the sea (food fish, pearls, etc.) as a business. It is his work and he has possessed the pearl for some time. I ask_ Isn't the pearl his to sell as he wishes for the price he can get? If the Philippine authorities want to keep the item in the country for heritage reasons, should they not have to buy it from him at a fair market price. A benefactor could help foot the bill, and maybe the fisherman will lower the price some out of patriotism. But is it not his to sell, not to give up for a 'reward'? [Pass this around, and if you know an official Philippine website or page, send it to them.]
