I was pursuing the local (zips starting 447) list of contributions to the Presidential campaigns (follow that link and you can find out for your area, or candidate or donor), and there seem to be a fair number of illegally large contributions.
Each individual is allowed $2300 per candidate per election, with the primary and general [...]

I posted earlier about people being arrested for reading the Constitution, I figured enough time should have passed that more details would have leaked out by now, but I can find little.
This was at a pro-war rally, and the first lady, some men and members of Code Pink were arrested. It does not seem the [...]

“Mattel apologizes to China for product recalls” is the headline of a story about Mattel’s recall of about 21 Million toys. What is Colgate going to apologize to Chinia next, “sorry we didn’t watch the shelves for fake Colgate,” after all was it China’s fault that they made fake Colgate with poison? Are the pet [...]
An interesting video of people being arrested, not given their meranda rights and not being what they are charged with beyond apparently reading the Constitution to people out loud, and when I say out loud, I am not talking about volume, just speaking the words of the Constitution of the United States of America in [...]

There is a supposed new Bin Laden video out or coming out (odd how the last “new” one that came out last week freezes so you can’t read his lips every time when he talks about current events before resuming) where he introduces the prerecorded martyrdom video of Waleed al Shehri, whom the FBI says [...]

I went to the firing range for the first time in something like seven years. Back then I took a firearms training class, and all we shot was a .22. This time out, I got a quick refresher and shot a Springfield XD 9mm. The XD is the gun I have been looking to buy, [...]

Posted in Politics, Ron Paul for President on Sep 6th, 2007
There was another GOP debate on Fox last night. Initial reports are that the moderators were attempting to skew the questions and format against Ron Paul. However, Ron Paul rose to the occasion, and won the text messaging poll afterwards. Fox tried to downplay the results saying that they were messed with, despite the fact [...]

…and no it’s not another Ron Paul music video… actually it isn’t the video that is cool so much as the song itself… although I am not the biggest hip-hop/rap fan in the world.

One of the most dangerous organizations to US sovereignty is the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), who is out to create a North American Union in the style of the European Union. The Daily Paul has posted a list of who are members of the CFR from both major parties.
The Democrat CFR Members:
Hillary Clinton, Barack [...]

California Blocks Mandatory ID Implants in Employees is a report on how California has made it illegal for companies to mandate that their employees have ID chips implanted in them. I have already covered how Bush is affiliated with large RFID companies and is pushing to have RFID’s implanted into everyone (oddly, his croneys seem [...]

I saw yet another great video posted over at Daily Paul, but first a quote of Ron Paul’s that the video had:
The obligation of our representatives in Washington is to protect liberty, not coddle the world, precipitating no-win wars, while bringing bankruptcy and economic turmoil to our people. - Ron Paul

I saw over at Daily Paul that Ron Paul placed 3rd in the Texas Straw Poll.
Seeing how the party did their best to keep him from being able to get any votes at all, this is a truly amazing victory.
Third place puts him well ahead of Giuliani and Romney, the media’s favorites. Duncan Hunter finished [...]

If you use Winamp and/or Windows Media Player, here are a couple plugins you need.
I have been frustrated of late with the inability of WinAmp and Windows Media Player to remember not just the last track played, but where on that track I was before I shut it down. Say you are listening to a [...]
