Liberty Trail--The Conservative Road to Freedom

A gathering of interesting tidbits, links, news articles, all of which present information about a myriad of topics related to issues which negatively affect the American way of life.

3/1/10:  By now, if you don't know who George Soros is, you might be considered somewhat ignorant, or at best, very ill informed.  So, let me paint a word picture.  Every puppet has strings, correct?  And in order for the puppet to do it's thing, someone has to be pulling the strings, just as for a dummy to talk and move and be the focal point, it is actually the ventriloquist who is behind the scenes making it all happen.  Starting to get it now?  George Soros holds the puppets strings and is the ventriloquist, all in one.  And has been since before Owe-bama took office, so it is not a new thing....it is just an accelerated puppet now and a faster talking dummy. 

I'll paint a picture for you.  First, he is not new to the arena at all.  If you have heard of the Huffington Post, you are no doubt familiar with the fact that it is the ultimate in liberal blather.  How is the Huffington Post connected with Soros?  That started in the year 2000, and you can read more about that HERE.  Needless to say, this is but one example of Soros involvement in liberal leaning media, but it is used to point out that he has been in the game perhaps longer than many would suspect, and for a reason.  Start the poisoning early and often through the media. 

Now, for the main part of the picture....the economic situation, which everyone is aware of...not just here in America, but throughout the world.  Enter Soros, again.  Let's go back to Owe-bama's pre-president days in 2008.  It was obvious then, that he was what was known as "the hedge fund candidate", and with good reason.  From this September 2008 SOURCE, we find that Soros, hedge fund pioneer and titan, oversees 527 groups and wielded his influence to help his largest political investment (to date) ever...Barak Obama.  And that influence has not slowed down one iota today, a year after his pet puppet was elected president. 

As you will see HERE, Soros and a small group of his friends (super rich one world order folks) have their tentacles deeply embeded in the democratic party, and continue to exert their influence by funding outcomes....with little regard for the little people. 

And, as mentioned above, the Soros factor is not limited to America.  One World Order is a global thing, and America is just a piece of the puzzle as pointed out above.  Remember the old axiom...he who has the money, has the power.  Soros has been well aware of that for a very long time, and he knows the global implications of that.  It is already widely acknowledged that the crash of the UK economy was a result of the machinations of Soros.  Here is, most likely, the next step.  Greece, and with it, in part, some major damage to the Euro economy.  He is willing to torpedo the Euro as evidenced by the bets his hedge funds are making.  Read more HERE.

Now, what about that lamb stew?  People throughout the world, like us, are like sheep being led to the slaughter, the victims of politicians who have sold their souls to him for campaign funds (or, as in the case of Senator Dodd who got his hand caught in the cookie jar, perhaps much more than just campaign funds).  And that's my 2 cents.

2/20/10:  Evidently, some one in Rhode Island get it, and is taking a very bold move to do two things...take on the stranglehold of unions in education, and taking a definitive slap at the continuing dumbing down of American education.  This lady should get a medal, and her school district should serve as a model for every school district in the country as to how to combat the lethargy in education and huge costs to districts that has come as a result of money grabbing unions in education.  THIS ARTICLE explains more.

2/25/10:  As a follow up to the above, it is now official that every teacher in the Central Falls school district was fired, effective the end of the school year.  And, no surprise, the union forces came out en mass to protest and throw their weight around prior to the school board meeting.  More in THIS ARTICLE. 

Now, here's a flash.  Don't be surprised if there isn't more of this type of "house cleaning" in other areas of the country.  For example, Chicago schools currently have a list of 7 schools that will be closed due to under-performance...the problem that existed in Central Falls.  Arne Duncan, Secretary of Education, has already made a pronouncement about the closings in Central Falls.  Arne Duncan is immediate past Supt. of the Chicago School District.  Arne Duncan was appointed by President Owe-bama.  My point is this....is Central Falls the kindling for perhaps a larger looming fire?  Is it the beginning, perhaps, of something not yet on the radar...a full federalization of the educational system?  What is happening in the public eye now sure seems waaaaay to coincidental to me.  The only factor that doesn't really add up is that most, if not all, public school systems are in the stranglehold of the unions, and closings and firings anger the unions.....unless they know something that we don't know about what it going on.  We'll just have to wait and see how this all plays out, and that is my 2 cents.

2/18/10:  We are led to believe that the relationship between Monica Clinton is a cold one, or cool at best.  At least this is the scenario that has "seemed to have been the case" since Obumbler took office.  I, for one, have never bitten into that sandwich.  One of the reasons for that is the closeness to Miss Hillarious, and another is the gathering of more than a few of the close Clinton pals, former aides, and appointees who have become part of the Obamanoid cartel bent on screwing the country up.  Those close ties are easily found through just a small bit of research.  All that said, the fact that Clinton is involved in plotting a counterattack on the Tea Party movement comes as no surprise to me.  It is just another move, in my opinion, on the part of Obumbler to have someone else do his dirty work.  THIS ARTICLE offers some good information about what Clinton may be up to, and why.  Oh, I guess that by now you sense I have no love lost for Clinton.  Besides having the morals of the worst alley cat, one look at his picture at the head of the article clearly shows another reason why I despise the man....the picture 100% reflects arrogance and stealth, two of the hallmarks of being a demonrat.

2/23/10:  And here is some more information about this sad chapter.  THIS ARTICLE offers some insight and validated history into just how the Clintonistas do their dirty work, and serves as a reminder that they have NO conscience at all when it comes to dirty politics.  

1/16/10:  THIS NY TIMES ARTICLE presents an excellent overview of the effectiveness of the whole tea party activism movement since it began next year, and points to how the sabre rattling is indeed causing notice.

1/12/10:  BEWARE, THIS IS GRAPHIC.....AND DISGUSTING. THIS IS ABOUT THE PIECE OF SLIME ODUMBA APPOINTED AS HIS SAFE SCHOOL CZAR. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.

 AS IS THIS LINK

 He's a part of our government now.  Someone we can be proud of.....NOT!

1/12/10:  ILLINOIS NEEDS TO GET ACTIVE IN THE STATE SOVRENEIGTY AND NULLIFICATION MOVEMENT !! This article offers an excellent insight into why this is so.

1/11/10: 

Will 2010 be the year of the 10th? According to Tenth Amendment Center founder, Michael Boldin, "With people looking to resist D.C. through state laws on everything from national health care to medical marijuana, the 10th Amendment appears ready to be front and center in the national debate this year."

Los Angeles, California (TAC) January 11, 2010 -- In 2009, seven states passed sovereignty resolutions under the 10th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Two states passed laws nullifying some federal firearms laws and regulations. States with Medical Marijuana laws in direct opposition to federal laws reached thirteen. In 2010, some expect the ante to be raised significantly.

"Already, over a dozen states are considering laws or state constitutional amendments that would effectively ban, or nullify, any proposed national health care plan in their state, and we expect that number to reach at least twenty in 2010," said Michael Boldin, founder of the Tenth Amendment Center.  "In conjunction with 20+ states that have already said "No" to the Bush-era Real ID act, another dozen or more considering state laws to nullify federal gun laws, and the steady growth of states refusing to comply with federal marijuana laws, some might consider what we see today to be an unprecedented state-level rebellion to the federal government." 

The principle behind such legislation is nullification, which has a long history in the American tradition. When a state nullifies a federal law, it is proclaiming that the law in question is void and inoperative, or non-effective, within the boundaries of that state; or, in other words, not a law as far as the state is concerned.

"Nullification has been used to stand up for free speech, resist the fugitive slave laws, reduce tariffs and more.  It's a peaceful and effective way to resist the federal government, and might be our only hope for moving towards the constitution.  Legislators drawing this kind of line in the stand should be commended," said Boldin.

Grassroots activists around the country are looking to the Tenth Amendment and nullification to bolster their efforts too.  Tenth Amendment rallies are planned in at least 10 states before the end of January, including Virginia, Washington, Alabama and Texas.  "These aren't tea party protests, or tax protests, or any of the other topics that were popular last year," said Boldin.  "These are rallies solely in support of the 10th Amendment, State Sovereignty or Nullification - something that indicates a major shift from the grassroots, and shows potential for the growth of a popular mass movement in support of the Tenth."

A recent article in the New York Times included "Tenther" as a top buzzword for 2009. In response, Boldin said, "With people looking to resist D.C. through state laws on everything from national health care to medical marijuana, the 10th Amendment appears ready to be front and center in the national debate once again this year."

Absolutely fascinating !

Click here: An interactive map of vanishing employment across the country.
- By Chris Wilson - Slate Magazine <http://www.slate.com/id/2216238>

The economic crisis, which has claimed more than 5 million jobs since the
recession began, did not strike the entire country at once. A map of
employment gains or losses by county tells the story of how those job losses
first struck in the most vulnerable regions and then spread rapidly to the
rest of the country. As early as August 2007, for example—several months
before the recession officially began—jobs were already on the decline in
southwest Florida; Orange County, Calif.; much of New Jersey; and Detroit,
while other areas of the country remained on the uptick. ....

Illinoisans:  If Oklahoma can do it, why cannot we?  Think of this item when considering change in Springfield during the next election cycle.

Oklahoma defied the Feds, they got rid of illegals, supported gun
rights, hung the 10 commandments all in the face of the ACLU and some
bully Feds.

God bless citizens from Oklahoma.
The bottom line here is each state has the power to refuse mandates
and money forcing them into liberal programs. Your county sheriff is
elected by the people to serve you, and if Feds want to push their
agenda, they have to deal with the sheriff, state National Guard and
the the few strong political leaders of that state. So folks, start
running for state office and don't complain, change the landscape.
