I would be willing to wager that there are many people who don’t know why we have Memorial Day. Luckily I am here to either inform or refresh your memory on the topic.

Hayek and Keynes. Most people have never heard of either of them. At the pointless “Rally to Restore Sanity” a great many geniuses were infuriated and flummoxed  by a sign asking if Obama was Keynesian:

I saw something a couple of months back and instantly thought that it would be more fuel to the 9/11 truth movement and their fun conspiracy theories that the U.S. government killed 3,000 Americans. Imagine my surprise when about 3 months later I have yet to see anything come out of it. At this point I will point out what it was. I just ask that you remember that I do not believe that the towers were imploded by government agencies and I believe that it was terrorists and heat that brought the buildings down.

“Know your rights”. Who hasn’t heard that phrase? More importantly, who actually follows it? And who actually learns about the system of government in the United States? Apparently very, very few.

Here is a beauty that I kept from the Midland Reporter Telegram in Midland Texas. The main story, is of course, one everyone should be familiar with. See here for the ultimate follow-up to this headline. Other big news of the day included a book signing tour from Colin Powell, abortion protest cases being decided by the supreme court in the absence of the chief justice and a local bus crash.

In an argument in a different venue someone referred me to a video that is, as the title tells you, one of the most ignorant videos I have ever seen. Our discussion was about religious principles in the system of government for the United States. The video presented to me, as an argument that the U.S. government and Constitution are not based on religious principles, was a wonderful opportunity to present many fallacies, foolish ideas and deceptions commonly used by those who disagree with me. I was salivating as I watched it. Critical thinkers watching the video should be able to quickly pick up on many of the aforementioned types of problems.

Laws are not established for the good people in a society. Laws are for those who cannot control themselves and therefore must be controlled. More and more in recent times laws have jumped out of their proper frame to come after the good people of society. The American Revolution occurred, in part, because laws were beyond their proper place and came after the common man (Stamp Act). The Constitution of the United States of America established the best system yet devised on earth for men to be free to act for themselves while maintaining some control on those in society who cannot control themselves.

In high school and college I was taught that along the political spectrum we have communists on the left and fascists on the right. I have heard many others outside of a school setting use this view many, many times as well. I must say that I have always absolutely despised this view of things. Come with me now and learn why.

Quite a common quote thrown around is said to have been made by Thomas Jefferson. I have not been able to track down an actual reference for the statement coming from Jefferson and am prepared to publicly call B.S. on it. As with most things I leave it open to new information.

I was once in a vegetative state back when I had television and saw what one could get away with calling a documentary about Ozzie Osbourne. There was a moment in the show when they started talking about a fairly famous incident which landed Ozzie in some trouble. The people that were interviewed about the incident talked about it in a seemingly amused manner and appeared to think it was actually quite funny. Read more on Remember the Alamo…
