The Biggest Lie

2012-01-25T20:13:00.008-05:00

Last night, Obama gave us the ultimate lie - placing him in the category of Hitler - the biggest lie possible to tell Americans. He justified collectivism - "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need" - with all his moral ammunition (it's right, it's fair) and called it "All American."*If you believe this and allow it to happen, you will have no choice but be reduced to

Pay Attention Now

2012-01-22T15:46:00.006-05:00

Saturday's result in South Carolina tells me everything I need to know to get a person off the couch and to the voting booth.Here's an article that appeared in American Thinker written by C. Edmund Wright. It is spot on as to what to zero in on that is going on in the country right now. After my republishing it here, I add my comment.January 22, 2012Psst: Hear the Roar and Pay Attention By C.

What's Wrong With Romney?

2012-01-21T13:46:00.004-05:00

Every time people are thinking they might have to accept Romney, someone comes along and moves ahead of him. This has happened enough that it is now time to put the finger on what it is that Romney can't do and because of that, can't inspire people to follow him. None of us want to follow him by default.Romney cannot access his passion. Given that his dad was a politician, my suspicion is he

What is The Moral?

2012-01-04T11:07:00.003-05:00

This republished from The Order of the Heldhigh Torch website where it was published today. The moral in human life pertains to the life force – that force within every living thing to continue living. But in humans, it pertains to the life force in a specific way because of the nature of human consciousness.Man’s consciousness frees him from the automaticity of survival to which all living

Man's Rights

2012-01-03T12:41:00.005-05:00

February 2, a month from now, is Ayn Rand's birthday. For a blog on liberty, her quote is especially appropriate at this crossroad for Americans' liberty:"You cannot say that 'man has inalienable rights except in an emergency,' or 'man's rights cannot be violated except for a good purpose.' Either man's rights are inalienable, or they are not. You cannot say a thing such as 'semi-inalienable'

Existential Equality - Man's Most Evil Social Idea?

2011-12-30T08:39:00.010-05:00

The reason that EQUALITY is so horrible is because it empowers envy. Envy is the hatred of the good because it is good. If Michael Jordan plays basketball better than anyone else, an envious person feels hatred and wants to cut off his legs or hurt his ability to be that good. He is not drawn to maximize his capacities and compete with Michael Jordan. In fact, he recoils (shrivels?) at the

Debt Limit - A Guide to What is Going on.

2011-12-28T11:00:00.005-05:00

The guy requesting more debt is postmodernist philosophy in action. He's acting as if his world of values is the truth even though it does not correspond to reality. We see this same absurd way of being in President Obama.Postmodernist philosophy holds that everything is political and if enough people believe something, it is true. Not!

Obama Destroys the Middle Class

2011-11-22T05:57:00.010-05:00

Obama has ordered a Mennonite health insurer to not raise their rates. This is as iconic as it's going to get that Obama is out to destroy the middle class and make sure that in true Marxian fashion, everyone except he and his cronies are laborers. This is cutting off the American dream at the knees.This past summer, I raised my rates to my clients. I'm an architect and I'd been charging the

Rothbard Destroys A Common Statist Argument

2011-11-15T19:39:00.005-05:00

I agree with this in every respect except one: society does need a State with no power except the control of the retaliatory use of force when a citizen violates another citizen's rights. Such a State must be designed to possess a monopoly on the use of retaliatory force. (No man or State can prevent initiatory force if a man chooses to initiate the force.) The State is to possess this monopoly

Blacks Need to Kick Obama's Ass

2011-11-09T23:35:00.007-05:00

Never have we, in my lifetime, had a more racist President. Racism means that one assesses and judges a man by the color of his skin. One doesn't look at a person's talents nor his character. Only his skin color matters. Skin color is the first and only means that one ought to use to know how to treat a person - says a racist.Today I read an article with this headline: Obama Seeks Ideas on

The American Principle 101

2011-11-05T08:48:00.005-04:00

We now see that the top down politics that has come to a head in the Obama Administration is against human nature. Only the individual man knows what it takes to keep him looking forward to and wanting to take on life. (The moral is that which causes that desire in the individual human being. He must pursue happiness or his lust for life will die.) All orders and dictates from a top-down

The Lesson No One Forgot

2011-11-01T22:01:00.005-04:00

This came to me as one of those forwarded messages that we all get on the internet. No matter, the point is excellent and needs to be spread far and wide. So, I am.An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be

Here is a John Stossel column from the Washington Times. There is no doubt that government is the most toxic agent in our society. Nothing else is even close.Government is the biggest job killer By: John Stossel | 10/13/11 8:05 PM President Obama says government will have to build the nation out of the economic

Politicians, the New Criminal Class

2011-10-14T09:18:00.008-04:00

We are coming to a new realization in America: Politicians comprise the new Criminal Class. They decide everything about our lives from what we shall eat, how we use our property and how we shall spend our time. Apparently, all they care about is how to loot us for their purposes. Their rhetoric is the con's front which always proves to be a lie in the end. Even Michelle who advocates the

The ESSENCE of Evil and the ESSENCE of Good

2011-10-08T10:02:00.013-04:00

A man has to CREATE to get from a need of his, which is asserted by his life asserting itself (the thing that life does since life is a self-generating, self-sustaining process), to the value that satisfies that need and sustains his life. He can only do this if he chooses to do it. To live, a man must create value. The antithesis of creating value, the ESSENTIAL GOOD, is to be a VICTIM of the

Are We Headed for Dictatorship and a Totalitarian State?

2011-10-01T14:46:00.003-04:00

It is now time to take action to protect and maintain our political freedom and America, the land of the free and the home of the brave. We are under threat from within. Here are two people giving us information portending an ominous future.

The Campaign of Hate

2011-09-26T22:51:00.012-04:00

Already it has begun. The only way you can place your name under the Democrat banner this coming year is if you hate the rich, hate the Republicans, hate the Tea Party, hate the anti-Obamacare-ites, hate the Constitutionalists, hate, hate, hate.Obama gets this honestly. He sat in that hatred-spewing Reverend Wright's church for 20 years - and Reverend Wright is a master of hate. No one can

Do You Know the Difference Between Freedom and Slavery?

2011-09-20T08:01:00.006-04:00

‘On their way to Susa, they visited Hydarnes, a Persian by birth who was in command of the whole Asiatic seaboard; and by him they were given a hospitable welcome and invited to dinner. During the meal Hydarnes said: ‘Why is it, Lacedaemonians, that you refuse to be friends with the king? You have only to look at me and the position I enjoy to see that he knows how to reward merit. Now

This is What Evil Looks Like

2011-09-19T15:05:00.014-04:00

Take a good look at this look. That is evil incarnate. How do I know? He is unable to create value. No, its worse, much worse than that. He foments divisions among men and hatred in order to destroy value. Obama is a destroyer for no reason except to destroy. This is the essence of evil. His slick facade only fools the fools.Maybe Oprah can be excused. She's gullible and has supported

Who Is Going to Pull Back the Curtain on the Wizard of Oz?

2011-09-09T12:52:00.003-04:00

We all know the story of the Wizard of Oz. The potentate in charge was never seen. He stayed behind the curtain. He probably spoke using a teleprompter.But one day, the curtain was pulled back and there was this ordinary man. Everything that had propped him up was stripped away.We have a similar situation with our President. He is the Wizard of Oz and the curtain that no one will pull back

JUDGMENT - The Missing Moral Principle

2011-09-08T19:27:00.016-04:00

Who is the Ragnar Danneskjold* of our time? Who is calling the destroyers of value to account?We live in a time of a giant sucking sound. The WEST is flushing itself down the toilet.Why? It cannot pronounce moral judgment. When I say "it," I mean that the culture is in such a weakened state that a strong pronouncement of moral judgment to true matters up would be shouted down as unseemly.

I Create

2011-09-05T01:13:00.009-04:00

A two-session course is being offered on the creative process. The wording on the flyer is as follows: To be human is to be a creator. Learn to tap this power at will. Creativity is man's most fundamental means of survival. There is nothing more nourishing, more gratifying, more ennobling and more productive than to know what this process is, how it works and then to consciously work it.

I Wonder Whose Side These People are On?

2011-08-30T20:54:00.009-04:00

Maxine Waters told the Tea Party they can go straight to hell. The Tea Party's main focus is to get Federal spending under control lest it destroy our wealth and liberty. Who are the people of the Tea Party? They are the taxpayers - those ordinary people who work and pay for Maxine's programs and benefits. So we have here a thoughtless, impudent woman chastising the people upon which, in a

The Broken Window Fallacy

2011-08-29T14:20:00.006-04:00

On August 7, I called attention to the fallacy of Obama's policies. To win the game, "Cut the legs off Jordan," he says. Here. Here's the fallacy that is running that thinking: The Broken Window Fallacy. By this reasoning, total war and destruction will cure our problems and stimulate the economy. Oh my, ohmy, ohmy.

A Hideous Tribute to Anti-Liberty

2011-08-24T06:41:00.011-04:00

Martin Luther King is one of America's heroes. He is because he stood for and caused the freedom of every American and, in particular, our freedom from apartheid, the Jim Crow laws that were still on the law books in the 50s and 60s. By championing the dignity of the black American, he stood for the dignity of all men. His speeches reach so deeply into the human soul that no human can escape
