Ron Paul: Best Congressman Ever.
For making the Federal Reserve an issue. May it cease to exist. What an amazing article. Pelosi poses as for transparency, but claims to have never heard of Ron Paul's audit the Fed bill (which has more than half of the entire House signed on as co-sponsors), some nobody from the "libertarian" Cato institute complains that the Fed could lose its "independence," and Lamar Alexander compares auditing the Federal Government's central bank to taking over the auto industry. Love the picture...

06/18/09 – Michael Boldin – The Scott Horton Show
Michael Boldin of the 10th Amendment Center discusses how the doctrine of enumerated powers has become quaint, how the Constitution provides persuasive talking points for a strictly limited government for those otherwise undisposed, why activist priorities should be on limiting federal power as it is the most expansive and potentially destructive and how the states are, in some cases, resisting federal laws and asserting their own.
06/18/09 – Walter Block – The Scott Horton Show
Walter "Moderate" Block, professor of economics at Loyola University and scholar at the Mises Institute, explains why mankind should abolish governments, why we don't need them to protect us from foreign countries or from each other and why the problems of overfishing and ocean pollution would best be solved with free markets and property rights.

Patrick Doherty, Deputy Director of the American Strategy Program at the New America Foundation, discusses the Iranian government crackdown that reinforces the perception of electoral fraud, the popular Iranian discontent with autocracy, the dearth of legitimate polling in Iran that increases uncertainty and how Ahmedinejad's tough negotiating with the U.S. is seen by some as the Persian equivalent of Nixon going to China.
US News’ Hate Speech Kills One Million-Plus
So, the Brownshirts at U.S. News and World Report want to ban "hate speech" and have the state "round up" any American deemed to cross that line. (Never-you-mind the 1st, 5th and 10th amendments. The Constitution, far from being the basis of all law in our society, is a joke of a long-dead letter, and we all know it.) Well I just wanted to get a head start here and recommend to any federal prosecutors out there wishing to make their stripes and move up in the world that there is an open and...
