This Blog Is Moving

Greetings. After this weekend, this Take Our Country Back Blog will be moving to the new web site. Too many conservatives are getting zapped by the intolerant dweebs of the Obama Goons and seeing that this editing platform is a free site, Blogger can do pretty much what it feels like doing. Hence, I now have a paid site and will be migrating the last 1400+ posts shortly.

So, one day, you just may click this page somewhere and it will show up as "private". It has been fun but the intolerant Czarbie Goon Squads are brain dead idiots. They can come play at the new site which I OWN outright.

The Jihadi Tet Is Coming...So Shut Up

~Snooper~

Many moons ago, way back in November of 2007, Ace of Spades published a piece The Coming Tet.

The long-anticipated insurgent/jihadi Tet is coming. It must come. Al Qaeda and their bloody-minded "nationalist" allies aren't going to give up the war without a last ditch attempt to break the American spirit.

They know all about Tet. They've attempted Tets in the past. And a Tet is their last remaining hope.

So there will be a Tet. And the media will be filled with stories about it, deeming the new offensive a true "trend" which hardly needs confirmation by repetition and duration, and a complete vindication of Harry Reid's "The war is lost" unilateral declaration of surrender. All of this is as inevitable and predictable as the chiming of Big Ben.

It's the only play that makes sense for them. If they've delayed it this long, it's only because they're having trouble arranging a big coordinated series of bombings with the US military and even Iraqi forces harrying them at every turn, and probably because they want the attack to have maximum impact -- and maximum impact requires maximum disappointment. It requires the US public finally beginning to think that maybe this war can be won, or perhaps even is won -- and for once, perhaps, the MSM is inadvertently thwarting Al Qaeda's propaganda goals by not reporting on the recent turn towards victory in Iraq, thus denying the jihadis the circumstances of hope and optimism which is necessary for their Tet to work. [...]
Read the rest...it is an eye opener but, then again, we have been saying this as well...

Whereas we ARE wining in Iraq, General Petraeus has also warned that too much "winning" stuff can do more harm than good. The War In Iraq is NOT over until the War In Iraq is over. Like Ace said, perhaps the MSM has accidentally given the hope of the Jihadis a bad turn by NOT reporting all of the Good News. I haven't given that much thought and I haven't really posted on this subject because of the words of General Petraeus and other military leaders said pretty much the same thing and it has been all over the blogosphere.

Methinks some folks think that the war is pretty much done. I have said many times that the AQ leaders have pretty much given up the fight and moved on to Pakistan but left behind forces to distract and annoy. Certainly the AQ in Pakistan has increased a great deal but AQ is still in Iraq. I decided to post on this tonight because I ran across this gem from The Captain's Journal:
Iraqi Jihadis Analyze Coalition Strategy

If anyone has stated that the Jihadis are dumb and stupid are dumb and stupid themselves.
Pretext and Thesis

Abdul Hameed Bakier of The Jamestown Foundation gives us an interesting review of Iraqi jihadis and their analysis of the surge and security plan in Iraq. The analysis is posted over jihadi web sites and forums from multiple individuals, but the focus of the analysis is what they find to be three strategic phases. [...] read the rest.
Go on over there and truly study that which is published. Hang onto your britches...our troops would appreciate it if we would restrain from declaring total victory and giving the impression that the war is over. In case you haven't noticed, it isn't over yet and the fighting in Afghanistan and Pakistan has heated up since just before Christmas.

Pay attention.

Thanks.

Iranian Puddle Pirates: Incident Never Happened

~Snooper~

In a previous post here and a piece at Digital Journal, we brought to you our take on the Iranian Puddle Pirates probing the defenses of the USN in the Straight of Hormuz.

Now, Iran Says the Harassing Boats Were American!

Ya. Sure. Some of our own fools here are equating this to the Gulf of Tonkin over at an article at Digital Journal.

Hot Air puts out to sea here as does The Weekly Standard here and here, and France has been harassed as well. The Environmental Republican says to rebuts the Iranian apologist here.

MacsMind wants...DEMANDS...that the Huff and Puff needs to apologize to the USN. The MEMRI bloggers have some interesting input here. Pat Dollard has the take of the night.

We can catch all of the buzz at memeorandum. Sister Toldjah told us so. The Iranians just might be preparing for suicide attacks at sea for Allah and their 72 virgin gay Rotweillers.

The List of 45: Something You Should Consider As You Choose Your Elected Officials

~Snooper~

The List of 45


Years ago, a brave soul or two tried to bring to the attention of the American People that the Communist take over of America was well under way. They were chattered down and pretty much ignored through space and time. Much like today. Yet, we see every day or, at least which are tuned into reality, our political machinations stripping away at our freedoms time and time again.

It is called Identity Politics. It is called Multiculturalism. It is called Why Can't We All Get Along? It is called all manner of colored and disguised names and titles. Now, in these modern times, one can also include Cultural Jihad.

In today's rough and tumble and troubled times, we see that the ignorance of the masses has indeed brought about MANY policies of which, left unabated and unchallenged, will see the dreams and goals of the First Czarina of The United Socialist States of the Former United Free States of America. That Czarina would be the Madame Rodham, her supporters and her like-minded politicos.

Below is what I have called, The List of 45.

In the comments section, if you have a mind to, please list the items that you have seen become a reality. I have my list and it is truly eye-opening. Do you have a list? If not, you need to establish your list so you can Fight the Good Fight. Our very survival is at stake.

The communist goals were entered into the Congressional record by Albert Herlong, Jr. (a Floridian who served in Congress from 1949-69).

1) US acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2) US willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

3) Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the US would be a demonstration of "moral strength."

4) Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

5) Extension of long term loans to Russia and Soviet Satellites.

6) Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

7) Grant recognition of Red China, and admission of Red China to the UN.

8) Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the Germany question by free elections under supervision of the UN.

9) Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the US has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

10) Allow all Soviet Satellites individual representation in the UN.

11) Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the UN as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo).

12) Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

13) Do away with loyalty oaths.

14) Continue giving Russia access to the US Patent Office.

15) Capture one or both of the political parties in the US.

16) Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17) Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism, and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put the party line in text books.

18) Gain control of all student newspapers.

19) Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20) Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

21) Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.

22) Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings," substitute shapeless, awkward, and meaningless forms.

23) Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."

24) Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

25) Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography, and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.

26) Present homosexuality, degeneracy, and promiscuity as "normal, natural, and healthy."

27) Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."

28) Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."

29) Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30) Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man".

31) Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture": Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

32) Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture - - education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.

33) Eliminate all laws or procedures, which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.

34) Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

35) Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

36) Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.

37) Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

38) Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.

39) Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

40) Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

41) Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

42) Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up and make a "united force" to solve economic, political, or social problems.

43) Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

44) Internationalize the Panama Canal.

45) Repeal the Connally Reservation so the US can not prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike.

The nitty-gritty details can be read and studied in the book, The Naked Communist.

The goals that he read were taken from "The Naked Communist" by Cleon Skousen, which can be purchased from Amazon:

Next, we will look at the Communist Manifesto

Circa 1956, or so, the Top Dog of the USSR, Nikita Kruschev pounded his shoe on the podium of the United Nations and shouted to the West, "We will bury you!"

Many had no idea what this meant and said openly that they would have to have that translated. Some scoffed at the concept at the USSR burying the West but hind sight is now 20-20. It shows that we should NEVER take for granted that this and that can never happen to us and to take all threats seriously and keep a watchful eye on the enemy in both peace time and during war. I would go as far as saying that it would be wiser to keep a more watchful eye on the enemy in peace time whether than war time.

Cooler heads prevailed and with the USSR waltzing through Europe and the Middle East, the United States proceeded to build up the United States military and created the most powerful military in the world and in history. Thus remains true to this date. Unfortunately, while the military gained prominence in the world, we allowed our political machinations go unchecked and naturally assumed that the politicians knew what they were doing. Some did. Some didn't.

There were and, still are, two kinds of those that did know what they were doing. Some were devout socialists that penetrated the American political scene and some recognized that threat but were scorned and frowned upon because certainly, this socialist take-over surely could not happen. No one would choose socialism/communism over the American Federal Republic. They have been proven wrong and it is time to wake the hell up. There are many kinds of politicians that have no idea what they are doing and it is very much evident when you hear them speak.

Liberal activists, read that communist operatives, gained positions of political office throughout American on the local, State and Federal levels. Impossible you say? Conspiratorial you say? Perhaps; but the evidence puts to rest the conspiratorial over tones.

American law making processes have gradually, through the years, and nearly assimilated into American society laws that will give a natural and seemingly painless pathway to drift into full-blown Communism in downtown America. "The Communist program from the start has been one which sees their revolution of 1917 successful only upon total domination of the world. (See Brain Washing, A Synthesis of the Russian Textbook on Psychopolitics)"

We Americans are the singularly most compassionate in the world, the most benevolent and the most naive people there have ever been. We even believe that Communism is dead because the Berlin Wall came down. Communism ain't dead. It is called something else. It is called "progressive". It is called "Social Democracy". It is called "Democracy". Some even call it "International Democracy"...think George Soros here. Political Correctness has blind-sided those that merely go along with the emotionally weak.

There are others that claim that DC has become part of the New World Order of atheist governments. Whereas that can be argued, I would not go that far but I do see a resemblance of this in the current political climate. The Iron Curtain has come down in Europe and there are indeed proponents within the United Sates that would like to raise it here at home and give birth to what I have come to call the New United Socialist States of the North American Continent, including Canada, seeing that parts of Canada has indeed succumb to socialist ideals and thought and speech control.

With that said, it is a matter of record and fact that our American Politicians have supported and passed legislation during the years spanning from the early 1960s to 2008. They are anti-Christian, anti-American statutes and regulations on the federal, state, and local levels. They are oddly reminiscent of the original ten planks of the Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx in 1848.

Listed below are 10 key "laws" which have become part of the every day life of the American populace. "The American people have truly been 'buried in Communism'" and they do not even know it or not aware of it. Not one "main stream" political party is to blame. Both Democrat and Republican parties are to blame with the majority of socialistic yearning members being in the DNC and a great number in the GOP...we call them RINOs and I now dub the socialist Democrats DINOs.

Each of the Ten Planks is noted below with annotations of laws passed in the US Legislative Processes. Be afraid and wake the hell up.

1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rent to public purpose.
The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution (1868), and various zoning, school & property taxes. Also the Bureau of Land Management.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
Misapplication of the 16th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, 1913, The Social Security Act of 1936.; Joint House Resolution 192 of 1933; and various State "income" taxes. We call it "paying your fair share".

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
We call it Federal & State estate Tax (1916); or reformed Probate Laws, and limited inheritance via arbitrary inheritance tax statutes.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
We call in government seizures, tax liens, Public "law" 99-570 (1986); Executive Order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 which gives private land to the Department of Urban Development; the imprisonment of "terrorists" and those who speak out or write against the "government" (1997 Crime/Terrorist Bill); or the IRS confiscation of property without due process.

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.
We call it the Federal Reserve which is a credit/debt system nationally organized by the Federal Reserve act of 1913. All local banks are members of the Fed system, and are regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the State.
We call it the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated through the ICC act of 1887, the Commissions Act of 1934, The Interstate Commerce Commission established in 1938, The Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and Executive Orders 11490, 10999, as well as State mandated driver's licenses and Department of Transportation regulations.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
We call it corporate capacity, The Desert Entry Act and The Department of Agriculture. As well as the Department of Commerce and Labor, Department of Interior, the Evironmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Mines, National Park Service, and the IRS control of business through corporate regulations.

8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of Industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
We call it the Social Security Administration and The Department of Labor. The National debt and inflation caused by the communal bank has caused the need for a two "income" family. Woman in the workplace since the 1920's, the 19th amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, assorted Socialist Unions, affirmative action, the Federal Public Works Program and of course Executive Order 11000.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the population over the country. We call it the Planning Reorganization act of 1949 , zoning (Title 17 1910-1990) and Super Corporate Farms, as well as Executive orders 11647, 11731 (ten regions) and Public "law" 89-136.

10. Free education for all children in government schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.
People are being taxed to support what we call 'public' schools, which train the young to work for the communal debt system. We also call it the Department of Education, the NEA and Outcome Based "Education".

So I ask you...does changing the words, change the end result? By using different words is it all of a sudden OK? We are so "smart," aren't we??

Ladies and Gentleman, not only are we in a war; a Global War On Terror, we are in a war right here in the Continental United States and her "offspring" and territories.

What are your freedoms worth? What price is your soul? To whom and to what do you swear your allegiance to?

Excerpt from The Communist Manifesto of 1848 by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels:

Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production; by means of measures, therefore, which appear economically insufficient and untenable, but which, in the course of the movement, outstrip themselves, necessitate further inroads upon the old social order, and are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionizing the mode of production.

These measures will, of course, be different in different countries.

Nevertheless, in most advanced countries, the following will be pretty generally applicable.

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the state.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state; the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal obligation of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc.

When, in the course of development, class distinctions have disappeared, and all production has been concentrated in the hands of a vast association of the whole nation, the public power will lose its political character. Political power, properly so called, is merely the organized power of one class for oppressing another. If the proletariat during its contest with the bourgeoisie is compelled, by the force of circumstances, to organize itself as a class; if, by means of a revolution, it makes itself the ruling class, and, as such, sweeps away by force the old conditions of production, then it will, along with these conditions, have swept away the conditions for the existence of class antagonisms and of classes generally, and will thereby have abolished its own supremacy as a class.

The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism. -- Karl Marx, German political Philosopher and revolutionary, 1818-1883

Op-Ed: Ron Paul Is No Constitutionalist...PERIOD! UPDATED!!

~Snooper~

I know a little about Ronniev Pauliev. He has fooled so many people because he knows how to talk the talk but he does not know how to walk the walk. He talks pretty. He cites chapter and verse. He mouths off a lot but when he associates himself with the likes of Dennis Kucinich, Sean Penn, Adam Kokesh, the Revolutionary Communist Party, Students for Justice In Palestine (btw Palestine has never existed), American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, Cindy Sheehan, and idiots that say this:
This is an answer to the Jew Horowitz and the neo-conservative Zionists who dragged us into an imperialist war in Iraq and are spreading hatred against Muslims to support their war plans against the Republic of Iran.

...he is no more a Constitutionalist than I am a proponent of Josef Stalin. What the hell is wrong with people? Have they lost their powers of discernment? Are they so taken aback that when he mentions the Constitution they begin to drool, froth at the mouth and say, "OH YEAH, BABY! HE CAN SAY THAT C-WORD!"? Give me a break. Sit the phuk down and shut the phuk up. Pull up a chair and lemme 'splain some thangs to yas.

I hear tell that some folks are so taken by this frothing clown and fraud that they fall for his shiite at every turn. I hear retarded comments like...
He has the right message but he is the wrong person to deliver it.
I call bullshiite.

I hear regurgitated comments like...
Look at the other GOP candidates as they snicker and laugh every time Ron Paul mentions the Constitution on stage at the debates! What do you make of that?
Well, when the mutants that ask that question, they have zero intention on letting you answer the damn question. I'll tell you what I think of that. The folks doing the snickering know what I know...the guy is talking out of his arse. That's why. The fool is a consummate liar.

A shortened history of Ron Paul is this: he is a Libertarian. WTF is he doing in the Republican Party, then? He tried to get elected as a Libertarian in a Republican district and failed. He tried to get elected as a Democrat, in a Republican district and failed. He learned to talk like a Republican and got elected. He is a fraud. He is not a Democrat or a Republican. He is a RINO and a DINO.

I hear other equally inane and uninformed and uneducated comments as such...
Then why does he keep getting elected?
That is a rhetorical and dumb question. Why does Kennedy keep getting elected? Why does Kerry keep getting elected? Why does anyone keep getting elected? They know what to say to GET elected and they know what to say to KEEP getting elected. What the hell is wrong with these people?

Ron Paul associates himself with the anti-Americanists of American Fascism Awareness Protest. Hello? Are you out there? Ron Paul is an anti-Semite. Ron Paul is a racist. He was a guest speaker at a "rally" and this is the flier for that rally:

Who Hates Americans? We Do.

Your typical American is:

A racist. A sexist. A homophobe.

An Islamo-phobe.

Is willing to invade other countries for oil and pleasure.

Is easily manipulated by Rush Limbaugh and Jews.

Is the cause of global warming.

Not clear yet what Ron Paul is? Stand by.
[...] On September 24, 2007, replying to an inquiry about U.S. policy toward Cuba, the campaign of Republican Congressman Ron Paul of Texas responded: "Congressman Paul believes that real free trade benefits both parties involved. His stance on Cuba would be to end the embargo, which only leads to the suffering of the people of Cuba while Castro is far from 'punished' and is in fact, strengthened by them. By setting a good example at home we can become an inspiration for countries such as Cuba, who may wish to emulate our actions." [...]
Clearly, as educated as Dr Ron Paul is, he sure is ignorant of the goings on of Cuba and Che Guevara. And this sorely uninformed rambling fool wants to be President? Please. While we are at it, if Ron Paul is such a constitutionalist, why in the world does he say to stop the war and spend that trillion dollars on health care? Where in the hell is that in the Constitution? Hell, even I can say and spell Constitution. It doesn't mean I know anything about it. Apparently, however, I know more about it than he does. Maybe I should run for President.
[...] In that vein, I had to wonder a little bit about Paul's supposed devotion to the Constitution. He said that we can't afford to spend a trillion dollars on health care because we're in a trillion-dollar war. Wouldn't an originalist also mention that the federal government doesn't have a Constitutional mandate to spend the trillion dollars on health care -- and at least acknowledge that it does have that mandate for national security, even if Paul thinks the policy is misguided? [...]
The man is a blithering idiot. A two-faced lying ass. He talks out of both sides of his face and both arse cheeks. More than likely, he is running for President to get out of Texas because he is finding it difficult to hold onto his district in Texas...we are on to him. Duncan Hunter beat him out in a Texas straw pole not too long ago.
[...] Zoom ahead to this election cycle, almost four years later. Recent polling by another Texas Republican pollster confirms that Paul's electorate doesn't appreciate the increasingly leftish libertarian bent of Paul's voting record. In the eyes of voters, Paul is now also wrong to oppose the Patriot Act, off base on energy policy that affects Texas enormously, and to be faulted for knee-jerk opposition to the fight against terror in the Middle East.

The difference this time is that Paul's critics have a bona fide challenger lined up: Chris Peden, a mainline social conservative who has distinguished himself opposing the tax hijinks of local elected officials. If Paul files to run for both Congress and the presidency by the Jan. 2 deadline, he'll likely lose to Peden on March 4. That'll be OK, though. Dr. Paul can just move to New Hampshire where the libertarian Free State Project might try and elect him their first governor, leveraging the boost in name ID and image that his presidential bid will have wrought. Good riddance. [...]
The flake is certifiable and I am, as a Texican, sick and tired of the uneducated about Ronniev Pauliev yammering on like they know something and telling me and the rest of the world about leftist RINO Fraud Paul being a strict Constitutionalist...he ain't one of those and I will Indian Leg Wrestle you over it and you will lose.

Hell, I could go on and on. Ron Paul is a leftist and leftists love him. I dare say that his most staunch supporters are either devout socialists or communists. He is certainly NOT a conservative. Not by ANY stretch of the imagination. Knock it off already about his constitutionalism...it ain't so.

Susan (Spree) at Wake Up America has a piece up from today, 1/9/08: she lists and quotes the various Paultard sites from the "rational" to the "spinners" to the deniers" to the "hold your nose and vote anyway" crowds. She has decided to be "brave" and is ready for the Paultard attacks and is requesting anyone woth input from the Paultards implosions to list them in her comments section:
Although I suspect that they are so busy with this "voter fraud" conspiracy theory, they may just not have the time to attack comment sections right now.

I have taken this little foray into the Pualites homefront one step further at considerable risk to my sanity, all for the readers, and am going through the Ron Paul Forums and will be adding to this thread as I come across anything about the newsletters or just general insanity and if anyone wants to help with this project, here is one of those forums and here is a page listing other Ron Paul dediated websites.

Leave anything of interest in comment section with a URL and I will add it to the updates with a thank you.

Happy hunting and tune back in for further updates as the day progresses....

Hillary The Fraud...the Emotional Card Comes Out

Breaking: Hunter Campign To Have A Major Announcement UPDATES

~Snooper~

HT to CQ via mm.com.

Michelle Malkin forwards a notice from the Duncan Hunter campaign that they plan a "major announcement" later this afternoon, likely when I'll be in motion and unable to follow it. With almost no traction in any of the national or state polls, Hunter will likely announce his withdrawal from the presidential race:

Presidential Candidate and California Congressman Duncan Hunter will be making a major announcement today at 2:00 p.m. (EST), regarding the future of his Presidential bid. All media are encouraged to attend or contact Bob Bevill, National Media Coordinator, to arrange alternate interviews.
If this is true, it will be a shame, although not unexpected. Congressmen running for President usually do so for the publicity rather than any real hope of actually winning a nomination. People talk about how difficult it is to get elected President from the Senate, but I'm unaware of anyone who did it directly from the House (I assume CapQ readers will correct me in the comments with any examples). [...] read the rest
This is merely speculation but what else could it be? If Duncan Hunter bows out, I hope he throws in with Fred Thompson.

The United States Constitution Does Not Apply To DC

~Snooper~

Yes, you heard that correctly or, "Rather", you read it correctly. Ready for this one? You will have to visit Don Surber for the whole piece but:
DC argues that the Constitution doesn't apply in Washington.

Mathew Barakat of AP reported: "The Second Amendment's provisions protecting the right to keep and bear arms apply only to the federal government, not the 50 states and the District of Columbia, lawyers for the nation's capital argued Friday in a written brief to the U.S. Supreme Court."

That is an interesting approach.

And by interesting, I mean asinine. [...]

I wish Don would quit holding back on us...go read the rest...amazing. No wonder the country is ALL FUBAR'd...

Knock, Knock, Knockin' On Terror's Door: Osama's Security Chief Captured UPDATES

~Snooper~

Remember that oldie but goodie tune with Paul McCartney? Let 'Em In?
Someone's knockin' at the door, Somebody's ringin' the bell. Someone's knockin' at the door, Somebody's ringin' the bell. Do me a favor, Open the door and let 'em in.

Bill Roggio at The Long War Journal, Pat Dollard and Fox are reporting that Osama's security chief has been nabbed and is in custody. The turban wearing turd was nabbed in Pakistan.

Roggio:
A senior al Qaeda commander has been reported to have been captured in the Pakistani city of Lahore, according to a Pakistani newspaper. Dr. Amin al Haq, the security coordinator of Osama bin Laden's Black Guard, "was apprehended from Lahore couple of days back," The Nation reported, citing "credible Afghan sources." Al Haq is said to be "under interrogation" at an undisclosed location. [...]
Fox:
The alleged security coordinator and bodyguard for Al Qaeda terror chieftain Usama bin Laden was arrested in Pakistan sometime last week, the influential newspaper The Nation reported Monday.
Amin al-Haq, 48, also known under the alias Dr. Amin Ah Haq, was arrested last week in Lahore during a special police operation and is being interrogated by Pakistani intelligence, the newspaper reported citing an anonymous law enforcement source.

Pakistani officials have not yet confirmed the arrest.
A Blog For All for has a quip or two.

[UPDATES]

The Jawa Report
I was just checking this out over at The Long War Journal when Birddog 26 e-mailed this Fox News report. Both Roggio's piece and the Fox News story are based on this unsubstantiated report from The Nation claiming that Dr. Amin Al Haq, who is described variously as a "bodyguard" for bin Laden and "security chief" for al Qaeda, was arrested.

But the most interesting part? He was arrested in Lahore. Any quick map search of Pakistan will show you that Lahore is not "tribal" Pakistan or one of the "lawless" regions where Pashtun is the main language making them ethnically related to the Afghans who made up the majority of the Taliban and their supporters. It is smack dab in the middle of Punjab and is the second largest city in the country.

The implication of this should be immediately obvious: if one of bin Laden's closest aides was busy hiding out in plain site in the middle of Pakistan's second largest city, and bin Laden is still alive, then maybe bin Laden is, as I mentioned just this morning, "in Karachi directing al Qaeda from the comfort of the top floor of a luxury apartment complex."

Iranian Gnat Boats Provoke US War Ships [UPDATES]

~Snooper~

And that isn't a very wise thing to do, is it? The USN showed restraint and honor during the "confrontation". HT to JWF.

It is going to happen one day or another. I say give it to them.
WASHINGTON - Iranian Revolutionary Guard gunboats harassed three U.S. Navy warships in the Strait of Hormuz Sunday, in what the U.S. military considers a "significant provocative act."

Military officials told NBC News that two US Navy destroyers and one frigate were heading into the Persian Gulf through the international waters of the Strait of Hormuz when five armed "fast boats" of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard approached a high speed, darting in and out of the formation.

At one point a radio message from one of the Iranian boats warned, "You are going to blow up within minutes."

The Navy warships went into defensive mode, radioed the usual warnings to steer clear, and in the end no shots were fired. U.S. military warships believe the Revolutionary Guard boats were "testing our defenses," the officials said.

They are testing our defenses? Laughable, that. We call them piss ants here in Texas.

Another memeorandum entry...

NYT Lede Blog:
Iran and the United States have been playing chicken for some time now, but reports this morning say that the game turned unusually direct on Sunday....

Power Line:

Retired Navy man Tom Wyld emails us a guide to the Navy's close encounter with Terhan yesterday and assures us it's "only the beginning..." Tom writes:

1. At 5 a.m. local Time Sunday morning, 5 Iranian gun boats charged 3 U.S. Navy ships transiting the Straits of Hormuz. Cruiser PORT ROYAL, destroyer
HOPPER and the frigate INGRAHAM were about to open fire when the boats
turned away. Here's a good source on the engagement. And here's a slow-loading but worthwhile graphic on the incident.

2. In addition to the ships' standard fare (missiles, 5" guns, etc.), theyhave 50-cal BMGs adapted for surface ship use and the Phalanx Close-in-Weapons-System. Originally a missile defense system, Phalanx was upgraded for use against surface targets -- ideal for hostile gunboats. Here's a video of Phalanx.

3. Hear the audio that sounds like a 2-stroke chain saw? Those are 20mm rounds being fired by the Phalanx gatling-style rotary cannon at 3000 rounds a minute.

4. Another ideal response to enterprising gun boat drivers who threaten ships in international waters is the Mark 38 Machine Gun which fires a one-inch-diameter round at about 175 rounds a minute. That's the slower-shooting and obviously more powerful gun in the background in this video (the 50-cal is in the foreground).

5. And remember. It is only January 2008. "Etand 86" (or "Ettehad 86"), Iran's biggest naval exercise, occurs February 2008 and will debut Iran's first home-built diesel-electric submarine and destroyer.

Go Navy.

Consistent with Tom Wyld's observations, Michael Goldfarb characterizes Sunday's close encounter as "an obvious jab at our naval perimeter," and Ralph Peters elaborates.

"This is only the beginning", folks.
