People, this is HOT. Please put your hands together for Beccy Cole, from Down Under. She can be MY poster girl any time! Her music is GREAT and her attitude is even better!

Here's some video of my Marines in Iraq... quite interesting and even educational!

Oh, and by the way, watch this space for news of my PodCasts, after I get my new 'puter set up. If they cannot be posted here, I will be posting a link to them. A twenty to thirty minute commentary on the issues of the day...

THIS is scary, people. Watch this and TRY to remember that this is supposed to be the Land of the FREE!

Just because this has been around a while is no reason not to revive it... especially in light of current events!!!

Happy Independence Day, folks. Here's a unique quiz on freedom and independence from the inimitable Neil Boortz:

JUST HOW MUCH DO YOU REALLY LOVE FREEDOM? Planning for your retirement. I want my employer to provide me with a pension plan. I want the government to take something out of every one of my paychecks and then pay it back to me in monthly payments after I reach retirement age. I'm perfectly willing to save some money toward my retirement years out of each and every paycheck and I want my employer and the government to butt out. If I fail to finance my retirement years adequately I'll have nobody to blame but myself. Desecrating the American Flag I believe the Bill of Rights was written by men to tell government what it can and cannot do. Even though I strongly disapprove of anyone desecrating our Flag, I realize the First Amendment was written to protect unpopular expressions, not ones that everyone is going to agree with. I believe that our Flag is the symbol of our country, and anyone who desecrates it ought to be punished harshly. To that end I approve of a new Constitutional amendment, the first one since prohibition that would tell us what we can and cannot do, instead of the government. Medical Care My employer should provide me with a health insurance plan covering me and my immediate family. The government should provide taxpayer funded health care for everyone. I should be responsible for providing my own health care and health insurance in a competitive medical marketplace unhindered by government mandates and regulations. Health Insurance The government should tell health insurance companies what they must and what they cannot cover in their policies. I wish to be free to negotiate with health insurance companies in order to find the best price for my policy by including matters I wish to insure against, and excluding health matters, like drug and alcohol abuse, which are of no concern to me. Having No Health Insurance If I have no health insurance the government should provide me emergency health care paid for by the taxpayers. If I have no health insurance and the taxpayers are compelled to pay for any of my health care the taxpayers should be reimbursed through the seizure and sale of all of my assets. I have no claim on the property of others for the purpose of paying for my medical needs. Choosing a doctor I'm perfectly willing to rely on private accreditation organizations to tell me who is properly trained in the delivery of medical services. After conferring with those accreditation organizations, like the American Medical Association, I want to be free to chose any person I want for any medical purpose I see fit. I want the government to tell me who I can seek medical services from. Wages and Employment I realize that in the free enterprise marketplace I have something to sell just as to all other individuals and businesses do. My product is my physical and intellectual labor. I should be left absolutely free to negotiate a price for my physical and intellectual labor with any prospective employer free of government interference. The only role for the government in my relationship with my employer would be to provide a means to enforce contracts between us. I want the government to set a minimum wage below which I would not be free to work. I also want the government to set my working hours, how I am to be paid for overtime, family leave options and my vacation periods, I recognize that the most important task I shall have as a human being will be to nurture and raise my child. With that in mind: I want the government to seize my money through taxes and to use those taxes to set up a system of government schools to which I shall be compelled to send my child. I will be free, if I wish, to send my child to a private school, but the government will not let me have any of my money back to pay for it. I want the government to back out of the picture and allow me to accept the responsibility for the education of my child free of government interference and mandates. Knowing that the more despotic a government becomes the more that government tries to control the dissemination of information. I also know that most American rely on the broadcast media for their news. Therefore: I want the government to continue to license the operation of all radio and television stations and to regulate their conduct so that they don't broadcast against the common interest. I want the broadcast media in this country to have the full First Amendment rights granted to the printed media. I am a devoutly religious person and my religious feelings include strongly felt opinions on what other people should and should not do in their private lives. I want the government to regulate the sexual conduct between consenting adults so that said conduct will be in keeping with my personal sense of what is right and what is wrong. I may be disgusted by what some people do to and with each other in the privacy of their own homes, but I do not wish for the government to prevent those perverts from doing whatever perverted things they like to do to each other. Even though I drink alcohol and smoke nicotine: I want the government to make sure that nobody uses any substance that I find personally offensive. Marijuana, for instance. I do not believe that the government should be involved in what people do, and that includes what people smoke, in privacy of their own homes. I just don't want to have to pay for it when they screw themselves up good. You need some legal advice. 1. You want the government to tell you who you can go to for legal advice. If you go to someone for legal advice who is not approved by the government, and that person charges you to prepare a will or to draw up a lawsuit for you, you want the government to punish that person with a heavy fine, or perhaps some jail time, even though you freely entered into an agreement with him for that advice and legal help. 2. You are willing to use your own common sense in choosing someone to represent you before a court, either someone who is recommended by a private accreditation agency such as the American Bar Association, or someone who is otherwise known to you to be informed and capable as to legal affairs, and you are willing to abide by the choice you made. You're going to have a child. You understand that having a child will be physically, emotionally and financially challenging. So ..... You want the government to used money seized from taxpayers to pay for child care for your child. You want the government to force your employer to give you 12 weeks off from the job in order to care for your new child, and you want your job to be waiting for you when you return. You know that you had the child, not the taxpayers and not your employer, and you are willing to bear the responsibility for raising that child without the government imposing any cost, burden or duty on anyone else on your behalf. You want to ride your motorcycle without a helmet. You're willing to take full responsibility for your decision, including the possibility that you might die if you crack your head open and you don't have enough money to pay for the medical care you'll need and there's no private charity willing to step up and cover your costs because they consider your injuries to be essentially self-inflicted. You want to be free to ride without a helmet, but if you do happen to sustain a horrible injury you want the government to force the taxpayers to be responsible for your health care.

Now from those wonderful guys and gals at JPFO comes another alert, 
one we need to pay good, CLOSE attention to... Remember these folks 
are putting it all on the line. The BATFags HATE those who would shed 
light on their nefarious activities...


ALERT FROM JEWS FOR THE PRESERVATION OF FIREARMS OWNERSHIP
America's Aggressive Civil Rights Organization

March 15, 2006

JPFO ALERT: "If You Have Nothing to Hide..."

"If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear."

How often have those words been spoken by supporters of the
growing surveillance state? As each of our rights are
systematically violated or legislated out of existence,
we're reassured that it will only affect terrorists,
murderers and other criminal types.

Untrue.

The news is rife with reports of innocent Americans caught
in the "war on terror."

- Innocent Americans -- including small children -- are
refused the right to travel due to the "no-fly"
list...which they are never allowed to see.

- The Patriot Act was used in Las Vegas, Nevada to "sting"
exotic dancers (one wonders how the Patriot Act applies to
exotic dancers -- perhaps prosecutors believed they were
part of a terrorist's harem?)

- And over the past two years, the BATFE ran a sting
operation against Arizona's Hells Angels Motorcycle Club,
claiming the Hells Angels "participated in drug violations,
gun running, murder, racketeering and other crimes."

According to the _Arizona Republic_ (
http://tinyurl.com/o8kkg ), the Arizona crackdown was part
of a national Hells Angels sweep led by ATF agents
attempting to prove the club was a "criminal syndicate". As
is often the case with BATFE investigations, the agency
relied on dubious informants and intimidation techniques in
an effort to elicit plea bargains.

The end result of this investigation -- reportedly costing
millions of YOUR confiscated tax dollars -- was the arrest
of a mere handful of suspects. Despite the BATFE's
accusations, NONE were convicted of "racketeering," half
plea-bargained to much lesser charges (sentenced to less
than 5 years in federal prison), and almost a third were
exonerated completely.

Nothing to fear? The Hells Angels are a "fringe" group,
with fringe interests, and the US Attorney's office (along
with the BATFE) wanted to make an example out of them.
Wanna bet that firearm enthusiasts are considered "fringe"
as well?

Join JPFO'S "Boot the BATFE" Campaign (
www.jpfo.org/bootbatfe.htm ) and make a stand. We MUST rein
in this rogue agency. We MUST defend our rights against an
increasingly Orwellian police state. And we MUST bring back
a Bill of Rights culture to America.


There are only 275 days until Bill of Rights Day. Let's
give it meaning.

- The Liberty Crew
