Sun-Tzu:

"Warfare is the Way of deception.
Therefore, if able, appear unable,
if active, appear not active,
if near, appear far,
if far, appear near.
If they have advantage, entice them;
if they are confused, take them,
if they are substantial, prepare for them,
if they are strong, avoid them,
if they are angry, disturb them,
if they are humble, make them haughty,
if they are relaxed, toil them,
if they are united, separate them.

"Attack where they are not prepared, go out to where they do not expect.
This specialized warfare leads to victory, and may not be transmitted beforehand."

"No Sympathy for the Lib'rals"
(To be sung to the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil")

Please allow me to introduce the World...
To the Left, they feel no shame!
Been around here for forty long years...
Stole many a man's Hope and Faith!
Fascists in Power when Jesus Christ...
Bore our crosses and bore our pain.
Made damn sure our Savior...
Wouldn't threaten their Evil Reign!
Please believe me...Lib'rals are to blame!
Despite their righteous talk, more Power is their aim!!

They saw their chance in St. Petersburg,
When they saw the Monarchy had been shamed.
Killed the Czar and his ministers...
As well as any Man who could think!
They rode the tanks in Heil Hitler's ranks...
When the blitzkrieg raged and all Waco stank!
Please believe me...Socialists are to blame!
Oh, yeah! Bloody failures, yet, they seem oblivious to shame!

They cheered with glee helpin' Pol Pot succeed...
Led by Hanoi Jane, their hands are bloody-stained!
They shouted out, "Who killed the Left's Elite?"
While slaughterin' all who just wished to breathe free!
Let me please clarify myself, these Elites have wealth and "taste"...
But their attacks on Liberty...have become a National Disgrace!!

I swear to you, Democrats are to blame!
Oh yeah! But what's puzzlin' me is their arrogant lack of shame!
Ah, yeah!...Go out and get 'em, boys!!

(cool guitar jammin')

Please believe me, Slick's tyrants are to blame.
Oh yeah! But what's important now is the ending of Bill's reign!

'Cuz the Prez'dent's just a criminal...and all his critics Saints!
While I could call Slick "Lucifer," I'll exhibit some restraint!
When you see Slick, show due courtesy...
But have no sympathy, 'cuz Bill's a snake!
Condemn all his corrupt politics, or be ashamed to show your face!!

Pleased to meet you...Mudboy Slim's my name!
Uhm, yeah! Bringin' Clinton down is why I must serenade.
Uhmm, I mean it...Get out...Yeehah...Resign!...Get on out, BOY! Ah, yeah!

Tell you Country, Lib'rals are their name.
Tell you, voters, it's something you can change!
Tell us, Willie, where's your shame?!
Tell you one thing, Slick's to blame!!
Ooh Hoo! Ooh Hoo! Wahoo! Alright! Ooh Hoo Ooh! Ooh Hoo Ooh! Ah yeah!

"Chi-Com Spies!!"
(To be sung to the Eagles' "Lyin' Eyes")

Lib'ral Pols just seem so gawl-durned squirrelly...
SlickWillie's Whore'd says, "Trust the Commies' Bile!!"
Effete ol' men, will go now to the Jury...
They'll fess up and disgrace Left's Elite Style.
Late last night, most DemonRATS felt lonely...
Reckon every Dolt knows Clinton isn't Right!!
And it breaks MUD's heart to think RATS' love is only...
Given to Dem folks who stand fer Rape and Vice!!
So RATS tell Slick they must Vote NOW fer their Country...
To support their Nation that the Left's torn down...
But Slick knows where RATZ're goin' as they're leavin'...
Left is headed for the TREASON side of town!!

{start_of_chorus}
You can't hide yer ChiComSpies!!
Yes...Left's Vile and lost, passion-wise!!
I thought by now RATS'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!

On the other side of town, Mudboy is waitin'...
With fiery eyes and dreams no RAT shall steal!!
He types on through the night, anticipatin'...
'Cuz Slick makes MUD FReep away RATS' sleazy schpiel!!
Left rushes to Slick's arms, they'll fall together!!
MUD whispers that Bill's goin' to be tried!!
RATS swear that soon they'll be comin' back, emboldened...
MUD laughs away and sings "McAuliffe's FRIED!!"

RATS can't hide their ChiComSpies...
And Slick's guile is a thin disguise!!
I thought by now Left'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!

RATS, wake up and pour yerself a strong one...
You know now that Left's Stars just keep on LYIN'!!
Come Join the Right...We're gonna FReep the Wrong Ones!!
Slick's bed is made...we'll hang him fer his crimes!!
Left wonders how it ever got this crazy...
RATS think about the dreams they dreamed in school.
Did Left get tired or were RATS always crazy?!
They're so far gone, Left seems just like they're fools!!
My, oh my, RATS sure seem now like deranged things...
Press set it up so well, so carefully...
Ain't it funny how Left's new life didn't change things
Left's still the SocialistShills they've always been!!

RATS can't hide their ChiComSpies...
And Slick's guile is a thin disguise!!
I thought by now Left'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!

"Black XII"

"Sun Tzu Say..."

"If one gains victory in battle and is successful in attacks, but does not exploit those achievements, it is disastrous.
This is called waste and delay. Therefore, I say the wise general thinks about it, and the good general executes it.
If it is not advantageous, do not move; if there is no gain, do not use troops; if there is no danger, do not do battle.
The ruler may not move his army out of anger; the general may not do battle out of wrath.
If it is advantageous, move; if it is not advantageous, stop.
"

"Those angry will be happy again, and those wrathful will be cheerful again,
but a destroyed nation cannot exist again, the dead cannot be brought back to life.
Therefore, the enlightened ruler is prudent, the good general is cautious.
This is the Way of securing the nation, and preserving the army.
"

"The Ballads of Mudboy Slim"

"Once upon a time, there was a magical Kingdom, where a God-fearing, industrious people flourished, enjoying their Lives, their Liberty, and their Pursuit of Happiness. These good people were empowered by their trust in a Government of Constitutionally-limited powers, the inherent goodness of their Democratically-chosen Leaders, and their belief that Justice and the Rule of Law ultimately triumphs over all. This Great Kingdom, led by the patriot Reagan, fought the Great Crusade against the evil, totalitarian Red Fiefdom accross the Sea, and were Victorious, inspiring other Peoples--longing for FReedom--to look upon the Kingdom as a Shining City on the Hill!

Until one day, a devious cabal of power-hungry men and womyn infiltrated the Kingdom, casting a wicked spell of Fear, Cynicism, and Doubt that steadily enslaved ever-increasing numbers of these good people in the shackles of Dependency and Entitlement. And the power of these despoilers of freedom--who called themselves Lib'rals--grew immense, as they wrested control of the Halls of Enlightenment, the Chroniclers of Information, the Ministry of Culture, and the gargantuan Bureaucracy of Regulators. As the Great Reagan and his many strong Knights returned from vanquishing the despots of the Red Fiefdom, they wearily attempted to resist this Vast, Left-Wing Conspiracy and the sinister tide of Pessimism that had permeated the Soul of their once-great Kingdom. However, Reagan had grown weak and ill from his heroic efforts, and the defenders of Liberty--who called themselves Conservatives--found themselves without a strong leader, and temporarily without direction. And the Sheeple were spell-bound and silent...

Into this breach strode the vile, boorish ruler, Slick Willie, a charlatan without a soul, devoid of character, and driven only by a shameless Lust for Power (and for young harlots to whom he was not betrothed). The Lib'rals hailed his tyrannical reign and excused his TREASONOUS crimes, as this self- styled "Effete Elite" secretly despised the Kingdom's granting of FReedom and Liberty to the peasant folk, for it empowered their subjects and undercut the Lib'rals' claim on Power. The corrupt Slick Willie--who came to be known as Billzabubba--sought to further the enslavement of the once-strong Sheeple by secretly colluding with the despots of a new, totalitarian Red Fiefdom accross the Sea, and conspired to increase his countrymen's dependence on the Omnipotent Diety of Guv'ment. Still, the Sheeple remained spell-bound and largely silent...

Until, gloriously, a wise man of Noble, yet Humble, descent--who came to be known as the Maja Rushi--arose from the masses, and spread accross the Kingdom his message of The Way Things Ought To Be. An heir to the optimism of Reagan, the Maja Rushi inspired millions to awake from their Mellow Apathy and strike out against the tyrannical rule of the Lib'rals and the reign of the evil Billzabubba. Still, most of the Sheeple remained spell-bound and largely silent...

Finally, a young balladeer--who came to be known as Mudboy Slim--joined the Great Crusade against Slick Willie! This young Patriot combined the optimism of Reagan with the wisdom of the Maja Rushi. Mudboy and MUDzMerryMinstrels vocalized many great folk songs that enlivened the Masses, causing the corrupt, Lib'ral spell to be broken and Billzabubba and his Lib'ral apologists to be vanquished from Power!!

Thus, there dawned a great new Libertarian Era of ever-shrinking governmental authority and an ever-expanding emphasis on Individual Liberty and Personal Responsibility. Herein are compiled but a few of those songs that have been passed down through the Ages, The Ballads of Mudboy Slim..."

"SlickWillie's RightHand!!"
(To be sung to the Highwaymen's "The Devil's Right Hand!!")

About the time MUDZ daddy left to fight fer VietNam...
I hear that Bill Clinton ran away like a girl...
Ran away like a girl, with his girley-man squeeeeeal...
Thought Slick was the punkest wimp WhiteHouse's ever seen!!

So I asked if I could whup Slick someday when I grew up...
Limbaugh dropped ten dozen hints...MUD really knew Rush!!
MUD often heard Rush...and MUD strove to understand...
Limbaugh said McAwful is SlickWillie's RightHand!!

(Chorus:(All together)
SlickWillie's RightHand...Bill Clinton's MainMan...
Mudboy sang, "McAuliffe is SlickWillie's RightHand!!"

MUD whupped his first Lib'rals 'cuz DemLefties're all Dolts!!
McAwful acts FRightnin' but he knows he's mighty slow...
RAT PUNK's mighty slow and soon he found out...
Slick can get you into trouble, then he won't help you out!!

So then I went and taught Slick's PUNK how Slick Willie LIES!!
Slick's the Stainmaker, but RATS never knew why...
RAT Chairman did DIE, Terry didn't understand...
'Cuz Ron Brown said, "Bill Clinton is the Devil's Right Hand!!"

The devil's right hand, Bill Clinton's right hand...
Mudboy said RAT Punkster is SlickWillie's RightHand!!
SlickWillie's RightHand, RAT RAPIST's MainMan...
Mudboy sings, "McAuliffe is SlickWillie's BoyFriend!!"

(Mudboy on harp)

Well, MUD joined JimRob's Band and they went to town!!
Caught the Lib'rals cheatin'...FReepers, hunt the dawgs down!!
Walk Dem PUNKS down...help RATS' Punk fall...
Terry punched at Mudboy, then Ol' MUD had a Ball!!

PUNK's trial was shown on TeeVee, and Truth rang within Mac's head...
Asked him how he pleaded, "Slick's Guilty!!" MUD said.
"PUNK's Guilty!!" MUD said, "PUNK loves Slick's cute arse..."
Voters polled the Lib'rals, but Bill Clinton's no Man...
Slick Willie's no man, Bill Clinton's just BAD!!
Mudboy says, "BillzaBubba's the Devil's LeftHand!!"

Limbaugh said McAuliffe is SlickWillie's RightHand!!

"Show Yer Rage!!"
(To be sung to Bob Seger's "Turn the Page")

He's all wrong, this loathsome liar, The Beast From Arkansas...
Can you condone Ol' Slick's intern moanin'...humpin' Bill's four-inch Ceegah?!
Can you ignore how he treats women...
Or the girls Willie's Lust destroyed?!
Folks, your thoughts must soon be wonderin'...the way mine always do...
"Why'd we give Slick so much Power...when he's such a gawl-durned fool?"
Now you know why folks missed Reagan...
I'm just glad Clinton's term is through...ummhmmmmmm...

See, here's the scam...crimes've been bold, my FRiends!!
More than a Man...humpin' his page...
He must go!! CONVICT Slick, my FRiends...
Must be BOLD...Left'll feel our RAGE!

Well, the Lib'rals are so arrogant...Left's got no Moral Code!
Still, they spew their lies and "spin you"...
As if you just got off the Boat!
You pretend the Press don't bother you...
But you just want to explode...!!!
Most times you can't hear 'em talk...other times you can...
All the same ol' cliches..."Radical Christian"..."Righteous Man".
But, you always seem outnumbered...Right don't dare make a stand.

Here's The Plan, get control again...
Fight da Man, show'em your Rage...
LEFT MUST KNOW!! JAIL RAT's WHORE, my FRiends...
When we're BOLD, we'll turn the page!!

Out there on your jobsites...you think ev'rything's "Okay"...
While bit by bit your Liberties...are slowly sucked away!
As the cash flows from your wallet...you cower just beneath the fray.
Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed...
With the echoes of EX-Prez'dent's lies...ringin' in your head...
How you try, but you just can't forget...
All your forefathers who bled...
They bled for you!! We didn't want a King...
We've got laws...put Slick in a Cage!!
Left don't know...how to feel our pain!
When we VOTE, they'll know our rage!!
Ah, there Slick is...in the News again...
DemonRATS, where's YOUR outrage?!
SLICK MUST GO!! Right's in charge again!!
There Slick goes...Where? Think I know-ow!

discounting the little period of time during the actual scream itself when your ears might have been hearing it but your brain wasn't reacting yet to let you know.

"Five Books That Explain It All"

By Jeffrey Tucker

[Posted February 10, 2003]

The drive to war, the threat of terrorism, the stock-price meltdown, the continuing recession, and the decline of liberty—all add up to a moment of grave insecurity in which government power thrives and grows. Underneath it all is widespread confusion about what happened to turn the prosperous and relatively peaceful 90s into the current madness, who or what is to blame, and what to do about it.

What most people do in such times is cling to the words of politicians and the statements of TV's talking heads—the two sources least likely to offer a broad perspective that yields answers. The best means to fight back against their superficial prattle is serious study of history and economics. Looking over the Mises Institute's shelf of books, five stand out for providing a clear a historical perspective, a theoretical explanation, a forecast for the future, and an agenda for change. These are the books that are essential to understanding our times of conflict and stagnation.

The Costs of War, edited by John V. Denson. A debate is currently raging concerning how much Bush's proposed war on Iraq will cost (in dollar terms) and whether those costs ought to be figured into his new budget (they are not). This is an important concern, insofar as war is always financed with the people's money taken from them by force. But this book shows that the costs of war are far higher than most people realize.

In addition to outright expenditures, we must also consider the foregone uses of the resources that go into warmaking. With the resources used to spread destruction and death, families might have sent kids to college, saved for retirement, or invested in future production. No, war is never "good for the economy."

More significantly, we must consider the costs of war on freedom. Denson's book argues, as did Mises, that even victorious war can be devastating to a country's well-being. This is a point that was widely understood at the country's founding, which is why the founding generation was so adamant that the US should trade with the world but avoid all political entanglements, particularly those that lead to intrigue, conflict, and finally war.

This is amply shown by an examination of the rise of the American leviathan, the consolidation of government power, and the decline of American liberty. Contributors such as Murray N. Rothbard, Allan Carlson, Clyde Wilson, Joseph Stromberg, Hans Hoppe, Robert Higgs, Paul Fussell, Ralph Raico, and many others, weigh in to cover major areas of American history and most topics associated with the idea of war. The overriding thesis is that the friend of freedom must always be gravely skeptical of government war plans.

The influence of the volume has been immense. Appearing in 1997, it was the first (and is still the best) revisionist view of the relationship between war and freedom to appear after the end of the Cold War. In many ways, this book called the partisans of liberty back to their roots. It shows that believers in freedom were against the Northern attack on the South, against the Spanish American War, against World War I, and against FDR's drive to war. The support the American Right gave to the Cold War was an aberration. If you have doubts about Bush's war on Iraq, or the administration's belligerant pose in general, this book shows that you are in good company.

America's Great Depression by Murray N. Rothbard. A Republican president, facing relentlessly falling stock prices, tries every manner of intervention to shore up an economy headed toward liquidation. The result is new protectionism, welfare for labor, vast increases in government spending, and an economic decline that just seems to get worse all the time. This narrative could apply to George W. Bush in our own times, but it also applies to Herbert Hoover and his response to the 1929 crash on Wall Street.

Even today, students are taught that Hoover pursued a policy of laissez-faire and that FDR rescued the country with the New Deal. Rothbard shows that the story is completely false. The Hoover presidency was one of rampant intervention, policies for which he was criticized by (of all people) Franklin Roosevelt before he was elected. Rothbard further documents how Hoover's policies drove the country into depression from what might have otherwise been a brief recession. His protectionism laid the foundation for conflicts that led to World War II, his attempt to prop up banks led to the later bank closings, and his labor interventions prevented wages from falling as they should have.

Here again, it is hard to overestimate the importance of this book. For generations, it has been taught that the free market is at fault for the Great Depression (in the same way it is said that Bush is pursuing free-market policies now). Rothbard, especially in his chapter on the Austrian theory of the business cycle, shows that it was the Federal Reserve's loose money policy that set the stage for the stock market crash, and the government that prolonged the suffering with policies that accomplished the opposite of their stated aims. In other words, this book refutes a central myth of the 20th century, and shows that the current path of countercyclical policy will not only fail to save it; it will dig us in deeper.

Omnipotent Government: The Rise of the Total State and Total War by Ludwig von Mises. Before writing Human Action, Mises went to work on a book examining the rise of Hitlerism in Germany. Appearing the same year as F.A. Hayek's Road to Serfdom, Mises provides what may be the best account ever written on the psychology, economics, and politics of a society overtaken by chauvinism and militarism. He deals with the dangers inherent in a citizenry thirsting for vengeance, being led by a government headed by a power-mad executive with a relentless passion for war making at any cost. In short, Mises unlocks the secret to how a seemingly normal country can find itself plunged into nationalist totalitarianism.

Books on German politics in the 1930s are ubiquitous, but only Mises provides a thorough examination of the economic doctrines that formed the basis of German nationalism in this period. Beginning with the desire for autarky, Germany pursued a disastrous course of erecting the planning state that regimented of every aspect of life, from economics to education to language and religion. He contrasts the prevailing doctrines with the ideas of the old German liberals, who favored trade, peace, toleration, and self-determination.

Much of this history has been lost and replaced by an exclusive focus on the evil of Hitler himself. Apparently, the parallels of Hitler's policies with those of the US in the period (or in our own times) are just too close for comfort. That issue aside, Mises's book stands out among all the literature on this topic as a terrifying examination of the consequences of statist ideology, war propaganda, and misplaced patriotism—and its lessons apply in all times and places.

Reassessing the Presidency: The Rise of the Executive State and the Decline of Freedom edited by John V. Denson. If George Washington had delivered a speech along the lines of George W. Bush's State of the Union in January 2003, the outcry would have been palpable. It would have widely been assumed that King George had returned, madder than ever. One was given the impression that nothing in the Constitution restrains his war-making power, nothing prevents him from spending billions upon billions on what he wants to do, and that anyone who objects is an enemy of all that is right and true.

The framers envisioned that the president would have few powers at all, and those that he did have were to be exercised with stern oversight from the legislative branch. If you are seeking an answer to how we came to imperial presidency of the current day, don't look at the conventional presidential histories, in which it is widely assumed that the more power the chief executive grabs, the "greater" he is. Especially wartime presidents come in for good marks, while the downside is either not discussed or downplayed.

Rothbard. Anyone who has studied the relationship between money and state eventually comes to a remarkable realization: there is no modern leviathan without the central bank. It is the analytical key to understanding how government can run up deficits and debts without limit, bail out foreign governments, fund wars without end, and otherwise attempt to manage the globe. Take away the power to print and you rob the government of its primary means of expansion. (More than any reform, the gold standard would devastate big government.)

The story of American political history is radically incomplete without a history of money and banking, and yet there is not one history that gave the complete picture until this treatise by Rothbard appeared just last year. The history itself is masterfully done, enhanced by the theoretical lens of Austrian School economics through which the author understands events. But what really makes this a great read (aside from the sparkling prose) is the way Rothbard weaves together the theory and history through the lives of shady financiers and the politicians and political machines with which they are connected.

In many ways, this treatise brings all the themes of our day together. It shows how central banking creates the boom-bust cycle and funds wars, how the financial sector serves as the essential link between politics and banking, and how paper money makes big government possible and manages to make worse all the problems it originally caused. Most importantly for our purposes, this book shows that no matter how extraordinary our times appear, there are many precedents for the current mess, and one clear path away from destruction: freedom, sound money, and ever smaller government.
