“Deal Me a Hand and Let Me See What I Can Make of It”
Alas, we enter February and another “Black History Month.” Yep, I'm white, and no, I'm not a racist; rather, I object to propaganda and pandering. And I merely echo black writers...
Rand Paul’s Stand Against the TSA
The TSA didn’t just “detain” Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) Monday: it showed us another of the agency’s many uses to Our Rulers. Not only does it teach the serfs their place...
The TSA: Ruining Lives Over Forgetfulness
Item: A Chinese woman studying at Hays State University in Kansas tried to board a plane with a stun gun in her purse. The TSA called the cops to arrest her....
The NDAA and Suspension of Habeas Corpus: Not Just for “Enemy Combatants” Anymore
Remember all those neocons and Republicans who cheered George W. Bush’s “indefinite detainment” of “enemy combatants”? Many of them — though, amazingly, not all — have lost their enthusiasm for trampling...
The TSA’s Voodoo Security
Along with perpetual metastasizing and nauseatingly double standards, another of the State’s principles is insatiability — on everything, all the time. For example, it can neither consume enough of our wealth...

The TSA: More Crimes, More Lies
Now the government-goons who molest little kids while claiming without a single blush that pedophilia is “proper procedure” are strip-searching grannies with the same excuse — even as they deny inflicting...
How the Gingrich Stole Freedom
It’s rare that a contender for his party’s presidential nomination calls for his own execution, but Newt Gingrich did exactly that on Monday. ...
Politics Is Money — Other People’s, And Lots of It
We frequently hear from the particularly naïve that they want to take the money out of politics. That claim recently resounded from the Occupiers of Wall Street and other locations —...
Disarming That “Important Layer of Aviation Security”
We probably all agree on the worthlessness of the New York Times. For starters, it publishes propaganda it barely bothers to disguise as news, relentlessly pushing its various agendas from a...
Do-It-Yourself Taxation
Boy, but it was a Red October! Polls conducted throughout the month just ended confirm that Karl Marx has won the hearts and minds of the American people. Two of his...
A Tennessee Trucker and the TSA
You might assume that unconstitutionally searching Tennessee’s trucks while recruiting their drivers to snitch on us would keep the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) too busy for further evil. You would be...
