… , what’s more, a state’s endorsement of same-sex “marriage” does create an arbitrary and invidious discrimination.
Now, that Obama has accomplished to piss off the Catholics (even Dionne is foaming at the mouth), it won’t be long now and church bells will be accompanying his official demise in November (or not). Ron Paul is the perfect Catholic candidate. And not just because he is not a warmonger and murderer * Marriage is a “business” contract. Homosexual unions are an indulgence contra naturam (yes, I know, you’ve derisively told me, that it is a scholastic term – as if that were the final put down). Homosexual marriage is a proposition that leads to absurd and untenable conclusions (reductiones ad absurdum). I firmly believe that homosexual marriage represents the proverbial overreach of the liberals and will be the death knell of their movement which has as its goal the destruction of conservative ideology itself and the distribution of free contraceptives (sheer horror!). But, no dice, homey. It will never happen ¹ * So, I am torturing my brain over your head over heels love affair with Obama. It helps that he has the right amount of melanin, but that’s not it. He is the perfect liberal with the perfect liberal agenda. He does everything to please his devoted base. He does not miss a beat. He is the perfect liberal. He even nixes a pipeline he must know would help us affordably running our cars and him winning elections. Yet, he sacrifices all for your hugs. Even I, a stalwart anarcho-capitalist Libertarian freedom rider, impeccable foe of all things progressive, am all over the place. One day Obama is quite the sly fox, the other day he is the incompetent. One day he can’t lose (like, when he and Panetta severely reduce our standing killer machine), the other day he is supremely beatable. Above Regensburg is the Donau Durchbruch. Millennia ago the Danube broke through a massive wall of rocks on her way through Bavaria, into Austria, on its way forming the beautiful Wachau valley, passing by Vienna (the city does not incorporate the river), flowing on through Hungary into the Black Sea. Such will be the coming election. It will signify a major Durchbruch. After November not much will be the same. I have no clue about the particulars. But November will be a threshold. It won’t bring a city on a shining hill covered with liberal busy bodies running hither and fro trying to strangle a great nation with socialist legislation and rules. It will indeed be a city on a shining hill, but a beacon for all of us who yearn to be free from the shackles of all leftist nonsense for which we will find a proper place on history’s garbage pile. Gaudeamus igitur!

Let us take away our president on a tumbril
Dear Emeritus: A nation does not run up debt for the same reason it raises children: it believes in its future. Presently, America, by worshipping hacks and celebrating abortion lacks the political will to bequeath a worthy culture to its progeny. Obama stifles, stultifies and destroys. And another Obama term will make us wish we were dead. Looking at Obama I get the same spine splintering feeling as hearing fingernails scratching on a blackboard. Obama’s departure from the public scene is way overdue. He even annoys our cat which rolls over and plays dead when he shows up on TV. As much as I despise what the Grinch, Sanctorum and the Mormon Bishop stand for, I still find them eminently more qualified to be president, and I much rather have any of them sully The White House than this swaggering oaf from Chicago. I have read some of the unbearable nonsense of the State of the Union speech. The Obama worshippers handle this trite and repetitive eighth grade drivel as if it were scripture. Why are people unable to see that there is nothing there? Fictional Dorothy has a greater ability for self assessment and honesty than those frilly Obama acolytes. At least she has the courage to look behind the curtain!

Black is white, white is black (this is not a reference to our president)
Dear Emeritus: We Paulinistas shall vanquish Mitt Newtorum. And we shall bring Obama home and mount him on our trophy wall. The wholesome difference being, Ron Paul has insights the other candidates are utterly without. I finally figured out why you have no time for Austrian economy. Ludwig von Mises, F.A. Hayek, and the other Austrian School greats began explaining, in the early twentieth century, that Socialism is an inherently failed economic system. And you just hate to hear that. For you Socialism is elixir and balm. And Marx is head god in your pantheon. Barry, the hope for and of mankind, sits at his feet. Government has been instituted to rob the citizens, keep most of the loot for its goons and redistribute a pittance to keep the unwashed quiet. Your sense of justice is to steal and redistribute. Socialism is state ordained thievery and from dawn of civilization the cause for societal destruction. The only question left to be answered is why Socialists don’t learn from their colossal failures. Because it feels good? A posteriori we know Socialism is responsible for all the misery in the world: Lenin, Hitler (oh, yes, he is a lefty), Stalin, Mao, Ho Chi Minh, et alia, all brought destruction, bloodshed and hopelessness! History tells us! And still, historical facts just don’t matter to the ideologues. Just as if a Ravenous fan would insist he clearly had seen Cundiff put it right between the posts. There existed majority Democrats who blamed the Republican minorities for the Democrats’ failure to pass legislation. When I told those Democrats that their party had the votes but obviously not the gumption to pass legislation, I just got empty stares. And I know they are absolutely convinced up is down and down is up. Obama, just like Newt, is temperamentally unsuited to the presidency. No matter who will face him in the fall (if he survives the constitutional challenges), be it a swamp frog or a newt, he will be electorally destroyed. In the end, not only the “numbers” will kill him. We will not reelect a contemptible racist who has contempt for our country and its people. He already has invalidated himself.

Vox populi?
Dear Emeritus: What are the chances that, after more than 200 years, we will ever become a constitutional Republic? Meaning: a sovereign people? Stop laughing, will you? It is a serious question. Our rulers are steadfastly preventing the population of The United States from becoming a people. Those thugs hijacked our νόμος, the rights and obligations of citizens. We are nothing but a herd of voters, every few years driven, supplied with empty promises, into the voting booths so we may choose the “lesser evil.” The States are worldwide in position 47 in the category “Freedom of the Press.” The Journaille, spokespeople for our ruling elite, are, of course, too intimidated and browbeaten, to speak up. Nor do they appear to care. Have you ever considered how you are being manipulated? How you regurgitate political ideas, by rote, just like a good apparatchik, of your party’s programme? The establishment, which gives Obama a Nobel Peace Prize for purely political reasons, is a sham. Rudolf Hess, risking his life flying under Hitler’s orders to England to make peace, dies after decades a prisoner in Spandau, which was maintained as a prison for decades just for Hess. Hate is what keeps them alive. I grew up constantly hearing about the evil apartheid regime in South Africa while a few miles from my home Millions chafed under a murderous, cruel, brutal and oppressive evil dictatorships. And the world competed fiercely with each other by beating a path to the door of those thuggish oligarchies. What do we know about our Representatives, except for the letter behind their names? How long is the list of things we thoughtlessly accept? That we even entertain to vote for any of those cretins running for President does not speak well for us. Electing Obama as president, drawing down shame on us and our progeny, will be held against us for all of our history. He will be forever a dark spot (no pun intended) in our electoral history. Because we are so eager not to be called racists we elected the worst of them all. Right in the kisser, Alice!

A new certainty has emerged in American life: in a crisis, the government will make matters worse and worse until it wrecks our life and all that makes it worth living.
Dear Emeritus: Your palpable disdain for the Austrian Economists because no American university would hire them, as if institutional acceptance is the criterion for one’s academic worthiness, is severely grating on my Austrian sensibilities. Yet you celebrate and worship Obama, an academic bottom feeder, as the ideal of intellectual achievement. Not just academically he is a cypher, a big zero, a nothing, he also underachieved as Senator and is catastrophically failing as president. He is in all those positions only on account of his skin color. He has been wafted into those positions by those who please to use him. He is the symbol for liberal ideology’s intellectual bankruptcy which celebrates its predilection for accidentia over substantia as if it were a virtue. Its not that intellectual prowess isn’t meaningful, it is wisdom which is superior. And in the present Stygian administration it is sorely lacking. He and his thuggish advisors took advantage of a sullen, stuporous and easily manipulated electorate which, stultified and stupefied, opened the door for electoral disaster. And the Stupid Party is mightily laboring to give America another four years of same unmitigated policy failure. Archie Bunker as president would be an improvement. However, as Ronald Reagan used to say, underneath this pile of shit there got to be a pony somewhere. And, indeed, there is. Obama not only will prevent Bolton as Secretary of State, he, and the saintly Panetta, who was given insufficient time to destroy the CIA, will reduce the Empire, if not destroy it. This way we both will have something, albeit different, to celebrate in Taormina next spring. Benvenuti in La Trinacria!
New doubts over historical Jesus.
![]()
There always will be doubters. First among them is retired Pastor Hermann Detering. In his new book he shows non-Christian sources of antiquity are no reliable witnesses for a historical Jesus. The Bible Geek and Biblical scholar extraordinaire Robert Price: "Hermann Detering once again proves himself the most keenly insightful New Testament scholar of this generation, worthy to stand among the neglected giants of Radical Criticism whose work, he has brought to light to stir today's Bible students from their deep dogmatic slumbers. My own debt to his work is profound." Just so.

Could this be the reason?
Dear Comrade Bensõnista: Cuba embraces Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, public schooling, income taxation, welfare, and equalization of wealth – that is, the same socialist programs that our dictator embraces. Cuba also treats its citizens the way we do – military tribunals, denial of due process, no independent criminal defense attorneys, no jury trials, and swift punishment. Cuba even favors the war on drugs, despite its decades of failure. So, why does our government hate Cuba? Could it be because Cuba has long kept independent of Washington?

Updated Gonzo Journalism: Hunter S. Thompson, R.i.P.
We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world. A nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us. No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we'll kill you. Well, shit on that dumbness, Barry Obama does not speak for me or my son or my mother or my friends or the people I respect in this world. We didn't vote for these cheap, greedy little killers who speak for America today and we will not vote for them again. Or ever. Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by Obama? They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers among us. They are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck them.
Sexual mores and arrest all unions
The Democrats are crucifying Newt for his libertine attitude towards marriage and women. As we sinners all should. But the liberal eyes are firmly shut to a president who likes to be fellated by his body man and by the old white geezers in the Chicago bathhouses, all the while snorting and inhaling – in company of his Mayor and other assorted friends, some of whom have ended up murdered. Well, dead anyway. The curtain will be rent and the filth will be revealed. “All foul deeds rise to the top.” The Democrats celebrate Bubba, a vicious serial rapist, unashamed adulterer and accomplished female abuser-in-Chief. Another piece of Democrat filth. But being a Democrat one is by definition of finest character, highest standards and privileged to be an outlaw. Democrat presidents are a gift to the universe. I couldn’t become a Democrat. My capacity for mendacity and hypocrisy is not sufficiently devious to gain me membership in the club. Nor could I represent a reprehensible idea. It being, you may by force take from anyone and give it to anybody and you alone decide who will get the loot. Socialism is nothing but a malicious and devious theme of grand theft. As long time member of the International Association of Machinists I know where evil lurks. The unions are despicable. Instead of getting government support they should be prosecuted under RICO as crime syndicates. Like government, unions also commit grand theft writ large. You may lard copious amounts of lipstick on a pig, alas, it will remain a sow. As a liberal you should have a lot of affinity for Newt. He is shameless, opportunistic and likes to play in the mud.
