Scott McConnell's Oral History of Ayn Rand includes an interview with a consultant of the Atlas Shrugged author and founder of the Objectivism cult, who details how she helped the artist formerly known as Alisa Zinovievna Rosenbaum get on the public tit. From Mark Frauenfelder at BoingBoing: Noted speed freak, serial-killer fangirl, and Tea Party hero Ayn Rand was also a kleptoparasite, sneakily gobbling up taxpayer funds under an assumed name to pay for her medical treatments after she got lung cancer. An interview with Evva Pryror, a social worker and consultant to Miss Rand's law firm of Ernst, Cane, Gitlin and Winick verified that on Miss Rand's behalf she secured ...
Obama deception indicators “off the charts” during Stephanopoulos interview

If you watch and listen carefully to the 20-minute, 14 April 2011 interview of Barack Hussein Obama by George Stephanopoulos, you will notice something very telling that takes place during that interview when the discussion shifts to the issue of Donald Trump and ultimately, the “birther conspiracy.” Veteran investigators who are experienced in interviewing and interrogating suspects, witnesses, criminals and non-criminals have undoubtedly identified numerous big red flags of deception precisely when expected, and in textbook fashion. To observe this in action, begin watching the video at about the 13:25 minute mark, when Stephanopoulos lobs the following softball, leading ...
Social Security 'Whoppers' and the Compliant Media

Social Security 'Whoppers' and the Compliant Media Jon N. Hall It's bad enough that year after year career politicians shamelessly perpetuate the same untruths, but when the media don't call them on it it's intolerable. Journalists are supposed to be guardians of the truth; they comprise one of just three professions mentioned in the Constitution. Democrats continue to tell whoppers about Social Security, and so-called journalists continue to let them get away with it. In his April 13 speech, President Obama said that: "Social Security is not the cause of our deficit." Which mirrored what Sen. Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, said Feb.20 on NBC's Meet ...

Paul vs. Paul: Should Ron Step Aside and Let Son Rand Run?

America has a short history of father/son presidential duos, including John and John Quincy Adams, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, as well as grandfather and grandson William Henry and Benjamin Harrison. But never before have we faced the prospect of a dad and his son going head-to-head for their party’s nomination. Last time around, rabble-rousing Republican Ron Paul became the king of the “money bomb” when his hyped-up supporters made him an unlikely (though short-lived) contender for the Republican presidential nomination. Paul’s repeated calls for fiscal sanity at the time are starting to sound a bit less out there in light of our impending government ...
GOP should stop picking "winners," pick Rand Paul

This is strictly nonpartisan advice to Republicans from an independent observer tired of the same-old-same-old during presidential primaries: Pick Rand Paul! The Kentucky senator came to South Carolina last week, dipping a toe into the GOP primary pool. And why not? Obama proved a Washington novice need not worry about a sparse resumé. And it's not like there is an all-star team lining up for this home-run derby. Gingrich, Pawlenty, and Bachmann? This is the part of the lineup where ticket holders know its safe to go to the bathroom. They'll strike out. Now, I'm not going to get into the merits of a Paul candidacy. Instead, I'll point to the GOP's doomed journey ...
Rand Paul: 2012's Barack Obama?

For the most part, republicans choose their presidential candidates based on who's turn they think it is. I've been espousing this for years. 2012 I figured was Mitt Romney's year because it's his turn. Sadly for Mitt, a monkey wrench by the name of Rand Paul may be what derails his march and eventual landslide loss to President Obama in 2012. Just like President Obama, Rand is a first term senator with limited national experience. Also, Rand knows what his audience wants to hear and gives it to them. The mantra of freedom and low taxes and less government with no explanation as to how to achieve all this while maintaining infrastructure and national defense and safe ...

Free spirits, the ambitious, ex-socialists, drug users, and sexual eccentrics often find an attractive political philosophy in libertarianism, the idea that individual freedom should be the sole rule of ethics and government. Libertarianism offers its believers a clear conscience to do things society presently restrains, like make more money, have more sex, or take more drugs. It promises a consistent formula for ethics, a rigorous framework for policy analysis, a foundation in American history, and the application of capitalist efficiencies to the whole of society. But while it contains substantial grains of truth, as a whole it is a seductive mistake. There are many varieties of ...

STRATFOR: The Libyan War of 2011

1 Comments
The Libyan war has now begun. It pits a coalition of European powers plus the United States, a handful of Arab states and rebels in Libya against the Libyan government. The long-term goal, unspoken but well understood, is regime change — displacing the government of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and replacing it with a new regime built around the rebels. The mission is clearer than the strategy, and that strategy can’t be figured out from the first moves. The strategy might be the imposition of a no-fly zone, the imposition of a no-fly zone and attacks against Libya’s command-and-control centers, or these two plus direct ground attacks on Gadhafi’s forces. These could ...
7 Questions For Liberals About Obama's Libyan War
Post Date: 2011-03-22 08:39:57 by A K A Stone

It seems like it was just yesterday when we had an "imperialist warmonger" in the White House who was going to be replaced by a peace-loving Democrat who promised "hope" and "change" instead. It's funny how that worked out, isn't it? We still have troops in Iraq, we've escalated the war in Afghanistan, and now we're bombing everything that moves in Libya. Yet, the same liberals who were protesting in the streets and calling George Bush a war criminal have mostly been meek and quiet about the fact that the President they supported has been following in George Bush's footsteps. So, the obvious question is, “Did you lefties believe ANY of ...

The globalists are infiltrating, corrupting, and turning the entire planet, one nation at a time in a combined scientific-geopolitical dictatorship that will be effectively impossible to reverse once it is completed. The latest Western-fueled conflagration in the Arab world indicates an accelerated regional strategy of destabilizing and taking over target nations. Nations like Russia and China, whose interests are being directly threatened and stripped away in this malicious melee, appear powerless and unprepared. Some nations succumb in silence behind the scenes, others are invaded, mercilessly brutalized, and assimilated into the globalist combine. The civil society overlay the ...

The nuclear disaster unfolding in Japan is bad enough; the nuclear disaster unfolding in China could be even worse. “What disaster?”, you ask. The decision today by the Chinese government to suspend approval of new atomic power plants. If this suspension were to become permanent, the power those plants would have produced is likely to be replaced by burning coal. While nuclear causes calamities when it goes wrong, coal causes calamities when it goes right, and coal goes right a lot more often than nuclear goes wrong. The only safe coal-fired plant is one which has broken down past the point of repair. Before I go any further, and I’m misinterpreted for the thousandth time, ...

Mohamed ElBaradei has recently announced he will be running for president in a move that should surprise no one.

Obama ducking deficit debate

When President Barack Obama opened the first meeting of his fiscal commission last April, he promised to be “standing with them” as they produced recommendations for curbing the nation’s escalating debt. Republicans and Democrats say they are still waiting. While Obama has said he’s committed to deficit reduction, he has also has made clear it is secondary, at least for now, to his “winning the future” agenda. And that reflects a strategy driven by what his senior aides believe voters care about most — jobs, not deficits. Obama’s reluctance to join the debate in a sustained way has provoked rising frustration among lawmakers from both parties, who ...

Bon Jovi's lead singer blames Steve Jobs and iTunes for killing the music business. Musician Jon Bon Jovi has taken a personal shot at Steve Jobs, accusing the Apple co-founder of killing the music industry with the launch of iTunes. As the lead singer of one of the 80s' biggest hair bands, Jon Bon Jovi's voice brought millions to the band with "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Wanted Dead or Alive." But now his voice echoes previous comments made by other musicians, record companies and retailers who have taken a blow to the wallet thanks to the decline of physical CD sales, whether it's related to piracy or the shift over to digital distribution.

Conservatives are right to go after Sarah Palin

I’m no conservative. And I'm certainly no intellectual. But I totally understand the freakout among conservative intellectuals over Sarah Palin. For a movement based on ideas, the former governor of Alaska and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee who sits astride the party as a powerhouse fundraiser and potential king- or queenmaker has been uninterested in setting forth a vision crafted after years of thorough study to match her outsized influence. The Atlantic’s Joshua Green wags his finger at those worry-wart Republicans: “It's not hard to understand what these conservative intellectuals are trying to accomplish,” he writes, “They genuinely believe ...
Putting an end to Wall Street's 'I'll be gone, you'll be gone' bonuses

Want to reform Wall Street bonuses? Try clawbacks. That's right. We need to make executives personally liable for their reckless bets if we want to remove the risk for taxpayers. That means giving shareholders, boards of directors and regulators the ability to "clawback" past gains when new speculations go horribly wrong. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and the Securities and Exchange Commission have floated proposals on performance-based compensation for traders and bankers. Firms that have more than $1 billion in assets would have to disclose incentive-based bonuses. The largest firms (those with more than $50 billion in assets) would have to pay at least half of their ...

Captain Ed notes the Pentagon's decision yesterday to bar several military officials and intelligence analysts from testifying today before a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing investigating whether the Able Danger program identified Mohamed Atta months before the 9/11 attacks. The Pentagon's decision to keep the witnesses silent "only demonstrates that the program found something that the Pentagon still wants hidden," according to the Captain. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter is less unconcerned about the Pentagon's action, saying his panel has already established the credibility of other witnesses who will testify at the hearing.

Is Wisconsin the Real Republican Waterloo? [Full Thread]

After the Affordable Care Act was passed in 2010, conservative writer David Frum called the passage of the bill the GOP’s “Waterloo” referencing Napoleon Bonaparte’s crushing defeat at the hands of the Duke of Wellington. This earned him the ire of his fellow conservatives and pushed him further outside the conservative movement. But David was wrong. If anything, the healthcare reform victory was the GOP’s Siege of Acre. Wisconsin is shaping up to be the real Waterloo. And not just Wisconsin, but also Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Arizona, Florida, and the rest of the over- reaching state Republicans. Governors like Scott Walker, Rick Scott, and Jan Brewer are riding ...

Please consider the validity of what I am about to say rather than having a knee jerk reaction dismissing it as being "over the top."

Despite Obama's zero experience at running anything, they said a leader with his spirit and heart was "what we have been waiting for". Fearful of criticizing our first black president, politicians politely say, "President Obama's policies have been unfruitful," while ignoring the huge elephant in America's living room.

In 2010, Megan Sampson was named an Outstanding First Year Teacher in Wisconsin. A week later, she got a layoff notice from the Milwaukee Public Schools. Why would one of the best new teachers in the state be one of the first let go? Because her collective-bargaining contract requires staffing decisions to be made based on seniority. Ms. Sampson got a layoff notice because the union leadership would not accept reasonable changes to their contract. Instead, they hid behind a collective-bargaining agreement that costs the taxpayers $101,091 per year for each teacher, protects a 0% contribution for health-insurance premiums, and forces schools to hire and fire based on seniority and union ...
Sarah Palin: Could She Run as an Independent or Third Party Candidate?

Sarah Palin talks a lot about the tea party. On Fox News last week, she said, "I find inspiration in tea party patriots [and] those with common sense who aren't playing a lot of games." She could be considered the tea party's godmother. With her Sarah PAC and support for 2010 tea party candidates, Palin has generated a lot of good will, not to mention publicity, for a movement that began only two years ago. She also isn't afraid to attack popular Republicans such as New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Further proof that Palin isn't always a GOP team player: She is skipping the first GOP primary debate on May 2 to give a keynote address, "Tribute to the Troops ...
