WOULD IT BE TO MUCH TO ASK THAT OUR OWN LEGISLATORS FOLLOW THE RULE OF THE LAW?

By the Watchman. 
  Our state legislature is spending like a bunch of drunk sailors. Most people in America understand the basics of finances. You should never spend more than you can afford. So why is our legislature doing so and doing it in violation of the State Constitution and the blessing of the Governor on top of that. Why hasn’t the Attorney General stepped in and brought this to a halt? What kind of idiocy is ruling our state? This is idiotic.

Abolish Memorial Day

0

by Justin Raimondo Posted on May 28, 2017

Author’s note: I had actually started to write a Memorial Day column when I looked up this piece from 2012, which says almost precisely what I intended to say. When you’ve been writing a column covering foreign affairs for over twenty years, as I have, repetition is inevitable, but what follows captures my view of this holiday and its contemporary meaning so completely that I decided to give it to my readers, rather than attempt to replicate the same thoughts albeit in different words.

We might as well get rid of Memorial Day, for all the good it does us. Originally “Decoration Day,” the last Monday in May has been the designated time for us to remember the war dead and honor their sacrifice – while, perhaps, taking in the lessons of the many conflicts that have marked our history as a free nation. In line with the modern trend of universal trivialization, however, the holiday has been paganized to mark the beginning of summer, when we get out the barbecue grill and have the neighbors over for hamburgers and beer. As for contemplating the meaning of the day in the context of our current and recent wars, that is left to those few pundits who pay attention to foreign policy issues, or else to writers of paeans to the “Greatest Generation” – World War II being the only modern war our panegyrists deign to recall, since it is relatively untouched by the ravages of historical revisionism.

For the fourth year in a row it has been my responsibility to vote against the state’s general appropriations proposal, commonly referred to as the state budget bill. That’s because for a fourth consecutive year the general appropriations bill…

Although this is an old article by todays standards it was news to me, and I suspect many people never saw this. I now believe that terrorism, abortion, sexual perversions, and wars are all symptoms of the real problem. I believe the real problem is that there are a small group of people that control […]

US Coalition Strikes Are Causing Soaring Casualties

by Jason Ditz, May 26, 2017

Exemplified by the hundred and some odd people they’ve killed in the last 48 hours, the US is struggling mightily with the narrative that they are taking extraordinary care to limit the number of civilian casualties in the air war in Syria, and are rapidly losing any pretense of a moral high ground.
