From Infoshop. —————————————————————————————————– “I will say I’m sorry I shot you the day you stand before the court and admit what you did was an act of violence.” Those were the uncompromising words Larry Naman, a 57 year-old homeless man with what up to that point had been […]
Article by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz. ————————————————————————————————– A nation of immigrants: This is a convenient myth developed as a response to the 1960s movements against colonialism, neocolonialism, and white supremacy.

Watch the video. ————————————————————————————————- Will the United States collapse like the former Russian Empire? Will the dollar fall? What will happen to America? What will life in the future look like? What is the evidence?
Article by Edmund D. Cohen.

Article by Pat Buchanan. ————————————————————————————————— Well, it sure didn’t take long for the Tucson Truce to collapse. After Rep.

Article by David D’Amato. ——————————————————————————————————– “Thailand and Cambodia have,” according to BBC News, “reached a ceasefire after a week of fighting along a disputed border … .

Thanks to our wonderful neoliberal economy. Article from Daily Kos. ————————————————————————————————– You may have heard about McDonald’s putting on a big public relations blitz about offering 50,000 new jobs around the country. In some places, there were big crowds that showed up to apply and interview. Today, Bloomberg […]
Article by Sean Gabb. ————————————————————————————————— Because it is unwritten, and because its various conventions are in continual flux, the English Constitution can be rather opaque to foreign observers. Some of these fail to understand the nature of convention, and assume that the Queen of England is an absolute […]
Article by Chuck Baldwin. ——————————————————————————————————- At this point, it may be helpful if I give a little history lesson. The Tea Party movement began in 2007 as a grassroots effort to support the 2008 Presidential candidacy of Congressman Ron Paul of Texas. I am proud to say that […]
Article by Scott Locklin. —————————————————————————————————— I admire hypocrisy: the more brazen, the better. It makes people strive toward something better than what they are. Hypocrisy is just faking it until you make it. The anti-hypocrites would prefer that everyone wallow in their vices rather than attempting to become […]
Interesting observations from Vinay Supta. —————————————————————————————————- * The “fading away of the state” is a long-held dream of many radical political ideologies. I never believed it was possible, and then I realized something. * The Church and State were once peers. Over the past few centuries, the Church […]
Article by Michael Bauwens. Required reading. —————————————————————————————————– This is a follow up on yesterday’s post, arguing that the idea and practice of markets, should be divorced from their present embeddedness in an unsustainable infinite growth system such as capitalism.

Article by James Abourezk. ——————————————————————————————————- You remember Helen Thomas? She was the senior White House Correspondent who always opened Presidential press conferences and closed them by saying the magic words: “Thank you Mr. President.” Her Wikipedia entry cites her professional accomplishments: “Helen Thomas (born August 4, 1920) is […]

Article by Alexander Cockburn. —————————————————————————————————— Americans were offered closure Wednesday to one of among the multifarious strands of our national dementias. It took the drab guise of the “long-form” birth certificate, signed and filed in Hawaii on August 8, 1961, indicating that the president is a legitimate occupant […]
Article by Glenn Greenwald. ————————————————————————————————– The first four Directors of the CIA (from 1947-1953) were military officers, but since then, there has been a tradition (generally though imperfectly observed) of keeping the agency under civilian rather than military leadership. That’s why George Bush’s 2006 nomination of Gen. Michael […]
Article by Justin Raimondo. ——————————————————————————————————- While the rest of the “news” media was busy covering the Great Birth Certificate Drama, Rachel Maddow spared her audience yet another hour of having to watch that walking hairpiece make a fool of himself (and us), and instead focused on the real […]
Article by Paul Craig Roberts. —————————————————————————————————- Remember when Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld told the world that Guantanamo Prison held “the most dangerous, best-trained, vicious killers on the face of the earth” and gave assurances that nevertheless “we’re treating these people as if the Geneva Convention applied?” The […]
A rough draft is now available online. This looks to be good stuff, as would be expected from Carson.
Article by Michael Earl Patton. ————————————————————————————————— I need a lawyer, not because I did anything wrong, but apparently because I am in the cross-hairs of the city. I will explain the “crime,” such as it exists in the eyes of the city, below. I am the secretary of […]
Article by James Clingman. ———————————————————————————————- For years now we have been involved in movements, events, and initiatives organized for the purpose of saving Black people from the ravages and vestiges of historical discrimination, disparity, and disenfranchisement. We have had meetings, conferences, forums, and seminars whose purpose was to […]
Article by Sebastian Ernst Ronin advocating Novocadia as the suitable destination for a white separatist homeland. What’s ironic is that while that region may be among the whitest in North American, it’s also among the most liberal. It would be even more ironic if in the post-American scenario […]
Remembering Austria’s Bruno Kreisky. Hat tip to Chris Donnellan. ——————————————————————————————————- Kreisky led his country for 13 years, from 1970-83, winning a clear majority for the Socialist party of Austria a remarkable three times.

Article by MRDA. _______________________________________ For all the time Minchin spends ripping into religion, it’s tragicomic to see him endorsing one of his own; then again, it seems part and parcel of his sociopolitical outlook: supposedly irreligious Leftists haven’t disposed with God—simply replaced him. Why go to church when […]
Article by Brett Stevens. ————————————————————————————————— Incompetent people (and by that I mean people who cannot predict the real-world results of their actions, at all) have one thing in common, whether insane, stupid, criminal, oblivious or intoxicated: It’s not their fault. Honest. If you are incompetent in this world, […]
From the Economic Collapse. ——————————————————————————————————– Once upon a time in America, virtually anyone with a high school education and the willingness to work hard could get a good job. Fifty years ago a “good job” would enable someone to own a home, buy a car, take a couple […]
John Derbyshire discusses the possible Republican candidates next year. It’s the usual collection of dimwits, opportunists, and sociopaths along with one cool guy, Ron Paul, or maybe two, if Gary Johnson runs. Trump is the wild card. —————————————————————————————————– Mitt Romney. Dear old Mitt. Always a bridesmaid, never a […]
My most recent column at Alternative Right. I analyze the stormtroopers on granola. ————————————————————————————————- The ultimate outcome of totalitarian humanism taken to its logical conclusion would be a totalitarian state organized as a kind of caste system whereby individual rights are assigned on the basis of group identity […]

Article by Saman Mohammadi. —————————————————————————————————- Who would have thought twenty years ago that a wrestler would become one of the heroes of our age?

Article by Ralph Raico. ——————————————————————————————– With the end of the 20th century rapidly approaching, this is a time to look back and gain some perspective on where we stand as a nation. Were the Founding Fathers somehow to return, they would find it impossible to recognize our political […]
Article by John R. MacArthur. —————————————————————————————————- To understand the utter absurdity of America’s intervention in the Libyan civil war, I recommend a visit to the Museum of Modern Art in New York to see its new exhibition of German Expressionism. It will be much more instructive than reading […]
Article by Nicole Colson and Alan Maass. ————————————————————————————————– THE U.S.-led military operation in Libya has morphed from the initial imposition of a “no-fly zone,” ostensibly to prevent Muammar el-Qaddafi’s regime from carrying out a massacre, into an ongoing bombing campaign with no end in sight–and now there’s increasing […]
From Truthdig. ———————————————————————————————————– In a column for Bloomberg, Ralph Nader has outlined the reasons he believes President Obama will not be defeated in 2012. Though the piece certainly doesn’t read as an endorsement for Obama—it’s more critique than anything—Nader argued that a combination of Republican shortcomings and the […]
Article by Robert Scheer. —————————————————————————————————– There is a craven disconnect between the eagerness of leading editors to exploit the important news revealed by WikiLeaks and their efforts to distance themselves from both the courageous website and Bradley Manning, the alleged source of documents posted there. Alleged is required […]
Article by Nat Hentoff. ————————————————————————————————- When President Obama and Eric Holder succumbed to fierce bipartisan resistance to trying Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and four other charged defendants – for the 9/11 massacre of Americans – in our civilian federal court system, they were defied by Michael Daly, a stubbornly […]
Article by Jack Ross. —————————————————————————————————– During the upheavals sweeping the Arab world, a common refrain among hawkish supporters of Israel has been that the Arab street is indifferent to the plight of the Palestinians, and thus the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not at the heart of Middle East troubles. […]
Hat tip to Peter Bjorn Perls.
Hat tip to NATA-NY ———————————————————————————————— Who was present when you were born? Can you remember every address you’ve ever had? How about every place you’ve ever worked? Were you circumcised? What if I told you that those were some of the queries the State Department is proposing for […]
