Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

GOP Gibberish

I thought I would try to watch the GOP convention on its web site. Since the feed didn't work, I looked at the key line for all to read:


Compared with Democrats, many Republicans believe in a more robust version of federalism with greater limitations placed upon federal power and a larger role reserved for the States.

Here is the problem: there are no versions of federalism. There is the ONE where the states reserved all powers not delegated to the federal government. The federal government did not reserve anything 'for' the states. The states are not given a role, they were to have all the POWERS not delegated.

More distortion, more statism. None of this is by accident.  You are programmed every day.  Just pay attention and you will emerge from the sleep. At least, they used "with" correctly.  

I expect today is the first day of the end of the current GOP. The ruling class thinks they have subdued to conservatives, Tea Party, and libertarians by subverting delegates and changing the rules; this time around people understand the game and they picked on the wrong folks. The party is morphing. In the meantime, people have to decide if they want to submit to the fascism and vote for Romney rather than Johnson.

People may vote to slow down socialism, but many will vote their philosophy. 

Maybe the libertarian convention will be online. So, keep buying silver and do so soon.
