Zabrocki has competition, Ron Paul supporter joins mayoral race

Robert J. Willett, (on left side) 38, tossed his hat into the ring today. He said he wants to oust the leader of what he calls a village board ripe with cronyism.
Willett, who supports former presidential candidate U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, (R-Texas), is a letter carrier for the United States Postal Service with a route that wraps around downtown Orland Park.
If elected, Willett said he plans to protect privacy rights, keep taxes low and propose an ordinance that would lower business licenses to $1 each.

41 Student Groups Demonstrate on Barack Obama’s Inauguration Day

“Not all young people are excited about the policies of President Obama. Who do you think will pay for all of this reckless spending? Who will fight and die in these unnecessary wars oversees? Our generation will,” says Jeff Frazee, Executive Director of YAL, in Arlington, VA.
YAL’s event, Real Change Requires R3volution, seeks to peel back the marketing of Barack Obama and expose his policies for what they really are – not real change. Before taking office, Barack Obama has put forth an $800 billion economic plan, promised more troops in Afghanistan, and begun talks of reviving the draft.

Strengthening or Weakening the Economy?

The economic situation continues to deteriorate this week as past and future bailouts were discussed on Capitol Hill. The debate was over the accountability of already disbursed TARP money, and on whether or not to release remaining funds. Banks that had already been bailed out before are looking for more money to fill the black holes that are their balance sheets, warning that they are simply too big to fail. However, whatever ‘devastating’ consequences these banks are dreaming up and pushing on Capitol Hill regarding their own collapse will be nothing compared to the collapse of our currency if we keep debasing it through these foolish bailouts. It should be that they are too big to bailout. The world will not come to an end without this or that bank. The most troubling thing to me is this rhetoric that only government can save the economy, and must act. This is so counter-productive.
We must ask ourselves what strengthens this country, and what weakens it.

Ron Paul Grassroots Docum3ntary Trailer

Congressman Ron Paul's run for the 2008 GOP Presidential nomination sparked a unique grassroots brush fire not seen in recent history. Ron Paul's integrity inspired and ended the apathy of many, which showed a large remnant of a belief in American liberty lives on.
An effort is currently underway to document this historical political insurgency against the elite system of modern day manipulation and control.

Orwellian Finance: Is 1984 Happening in 2009?

There are no major differences between Republicans and Democrats, just minor meaningless variations. They are both under the control of the fascist corporate oligopoly that runs this country. Representative Ron Paul explains how The Party is able to maintain control in today’s world:

Pretending that a true difference exists between the two major candidates is a charade of great proportion. Many who help to perpetuate this myth are frequently unaware of what they are doing and believe that significant differences actually do exist. Indeed, on small points there is the appearance of a difference. The real issues, however, are buried in a barrage of miscellaneous nonsense and endless pontifications by robotic pundits hired to perpetuate the myth of a campaign of substance. Influential forces, the media, the government, the privileged corporations and moneyed interests see to it that both party’s candidates are acceptable, regardless of the outcome, since they will still be in charge. It’s been that way for a long time. The two parties and their candidates have no real disagreements on foreign policy, monetary policy, privacy issues, or the welfare state. They both are willing to abuse the Rule of Law and ignore constitutional restraint on Executive Powers. Neither major party champions free markets and private-property ownership. Those candidates who represent actual change or disagreement with the status quo are held in check by the two major parties in power, making it very difficult to compete in the pretend democratic process. This is done by making it difficult for third-party candidates to get on the ballots, enter into the debates, raise money, avoid being marginalized, or get fair or actual coverage.

Ron Paul and Barack Obama, Trading Places

Right now the notion of Ron Paul running again in 2012 is barely in the embryo. If Obama’s spending, corporate welfare, and targeted tax cuts fail as expected then by 2011 we may have an influx of new friends in the Ron Paul-inspired freedom movement.
If the economy continues its unraveling throughout Obama’s first term I don’t think he’ll be ducking thrown shoes like Bush. It wouldn’t surprise me to see him ducking hurled copies of Ron Paul’s manifesto. Well, actually that would surprise me. Another thing that would surprise me is if Obama ends his first term anywhere close to his current approval rating.

View From Dubai: The West Will Pay for Israel's Sins

The House resolution was passed by 390-5. That is, against 390 supporting the war on Gaza that has killed nearly a thousand innocents, nearly 400 of them children, only five were opposed to the aggression.
And out of five who opposed the motion, moved jointly by Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Republican House majority leader John Boehner (R), only Congressman Ron Paul had the courage to confront Israel for its crimes against humanity. Ron Paul, the lone Republican Congressman who unsuccessfully ran for presidential nomination last year, tried to hold a mirror to the powers that be in the US by pointing out the US is aiding and abetting Israel in Gaza through its financial and military support. "The weapons being used to kill Palestinians are American weapons, and American funds are being used for this," said the congressman.
Unfortunately though, when it comes to Israel, conscientious voices like those of Ron Paul might have as well been raised in wilderness.

'Atlas Shrugged': From Fiction to Fact in 52 Years

For the uninitiated, the moral of the story is simply this: Politicians invariably respond to crises -- that in most cases they themselves created -- by spawning new government programs, laws and regulations. These, in turn, generate more havoc and poverty, which inspires the politicians to create more programs . . . and the downward spiral repeats itself until the productive sectors of the economy collapse under the collective weight of taxes and other burdens imposed in the name of fairness, equality and do-goodism.
One memorable moment in "Atlas" occurs near the very end, when the economy has been rendered comatose by all the great economic minds in Washington. Finally, and out of desperation, the politicians come to the heroic businessman John Galt (who has resisted their assault on capitalism) and beg him to help them get the economy back on track. The discussion sounds much like what would happen today:

Galt: "You want me to be Economic Dictator?"
Mr. Thompson: "Yes!"
"And you'll obey any order I give?"
"Implicitly!"
"Then start by abolishing all income taxes."
"Oh no!" screamed Mr. Thompson, leaping to his feet. "We couldn't do that . . . How would we pay government employees?"
"Fire your government employees."
"Oh, no!"

Abolishing the income tax. Now that really would be a genuine economic stimulus. But Mr. Obama and the Democrats in Washington want to do the opposite: to raise the income tax "for purposes of fairness" as Barack Obama puts it.

Small Business Under CPSIA Siege

I have been a Ron Paul Supporter for about 2 years now and I have already contacting his office and his aide told me the best thing to do is to get everyone I know to contact their U.S. Rep/Senators to ask them to help amend this Act for small business owners. The sad part of this Act is that Ron Paul was the only one who voted against it, while I think 423 Reps voting for it. It tells me that they didn't even bother read it to realize it would ruin 1000s of small businesses.

Ron Paul: Stimulating Our Way to Rock Bottom

With attention turning to the next big economic stimulus package, questions are still swirling about our economic troubles. How did we get here? How do we get out? As usual, Washington has all the wrong answers. According to many politicians, we got here by not spending enough, not consuming enough, and not regulating enough. Now government, like some mythical white knight, is going to ride in to save the day by blanketing the economy with dollars, hiring an army of new bureaucrats, creating make-work jobs, and sending everyone some form of a bailout check. The debate seems to focus on whether this will cost enough to save the economy, or if this is just a “down payment” with much more government spending to come. Talk like that would be comical, if the results weren’t going to be so tragic.

Ron Paul: Failure of dollar will dwarf current crisis

"I'm afraid that this generation's going to suffer," Paul replied. "I think the confidence eventually will be lost. ... The financial system broke down because they lost confidence in it ... but soon they're going to lose confidence in the dollar. Now that'll be a crisis that'll be much bigger than the crisis we're facing today. ... I would balance the budget and I would tell people to save their money."

The freedom walkathon

The second cause is Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty. The ten-term U.S. Rep, long familiar to libertarians as the Libertarian Party's presidential candidate in 1988, made himself nationally notable again when he ran in the Republican presidential primaries in 2008. He set new fundraising records with grassroots "money bombs," inspired supporters to set up hundreds of Meetup Groups with thousands of members across the country, and introduced a whole new internet-savvy generation to the concept of real freedom, as opposed to the mainstream media and political party lip-service variety we always hear.
Today, Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty boasts over 83,000 members in 52,000 Meetup Groups scattered across 20 countries.

Paul supporters stay in political process

"(Paul) has incredibly fervent support," the professor said.
Indeed, a Paul supporter had, on the night of the vote, already dismissed Huckabee-centered analysis of the outcome. The other candidates' supporters had just as much time to find people to come out to the meeting as the Paul supporters did, said Joel Jones of Bella Vista. "Either they don't have the support, or they're not as passionate," he said.

IS THE PARTY OVER?

Ron Paul stated: “The bailout is not just economically foolish. It is downright sinister. It makes a mockery of our Constitution, which our leaders should never again bother pretending is still in effect. You can’t stop a problem of too much spending and too much deficits and too much monetary inflation with more of it. So I’m positively opposed to the bailout and believe it will just delay the correction that is required.”

Monetary Malfeasance, Resurrection of Gold

Reasserting the Monetary Powers and Disabilities of the U.S. Constitution. (By Ron Paul supporter Lawrence Parks, Ph.D.)
Our monetary system is unstable and will blow up, because there is no longer any market based self-correcting mechanism for increasing financial leverage, increasing debt, or increasing the money supply. Historically, whenever the authorities have had the ability to issue legal tender irredeemable paper-ticket money, they were never able to resist the temptation to over issue. Savings, annuities, and pensions are at unacceptable risk.

It's encouraging to see so many coordinators come on board and to see so many precinct leaders step up to take back their neighborhoods! Before we know it, we'll blanket the country (and a few of our non-U.S. countries, too) with precinct leaders armed with the knowledge and tools they'll need to make a huge difference in the outcome of our future.

A Conservative Foreign Policy

Like the Founding Fathers, Senator Taft valued liberty here at home above "superpower" status abroad. The Founding Fathers understood that these two are in tension. To preserve liberty here at home, we need a weak federal government, because a strong federal government is the greatest potential threat to our liberties.

Happy New Year from the Campaign for Liberty!

We are preparing to hit the ground running in 2009. It will be CFL's first full year carrying on the legacy of the Ron Paul Revolution, defending liberty and fighting the leviathan state. Thanks to everyone for supporting our efforts to reclaim our civil liberties, restore America's traditional policy of nonintervention abroad, and return to a system of economic freedom and sound money. The new year means a new president and our adversaries have a laundry lists of foreign wars, invasions of our constitutional rights, bailout scams and inflationary monetary policy.
