There comes a time when we must take stock of what our blank checks to the military industrial complex accomplish for us, and where the true threats to American citizens lie.
Gardner Goldsmith touches base with Sheldon on the recent ruling by the Supreme Court in the Comstock case. Then, Gard and Sheldon investigate the recent flap over KY Republican Senate candidate Rand Paul's comments about the bad aspects of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
Gardner Goldsmith explores the often unspoken assumptions that support the unsupportable: government through means of the state. It's an analysis of contemporary assumptions, but also an historical look at how those assumptions have been carried along for centuries.
For the first time since the Federal Reserve was created nearly a century ago, they have hired an actual lobbyist to pound the pavement on Capitol Hill. This is a desperate effort to hang on to the privilege of secrecy and lack of accountability they have enjoyed for so long.

The sanctions in this bill, and the blockade of Iran necessary to fully enforce them, are in themselves acts of war according to international law. A vote for sanctions on Iran is a vote for war against Iran.
As ya'll may recall, Sir Mix-a-Lot's seminal ode to humongous booty hammered home the refrain "I like big butts." The Klown Execs' genius lay in changing the refrain to "I like big bucks." Transforming the piece into a WaMu stadium anthem by metaphorically morphing ass(ets) into cash.
