Those of you who were indoctrinated in America's college campuses know full well what a counter-revolutionary is. The national socialist (nazi) and marxist communist of various strains and persuasions use the idea of the materialists: "for every action there is an opposite and equal REACTION."
They expect a COUNTER revolution to emerge as a result of their revolutionary action. It is woven into their agenda as doctrine, and as "marxist philosophical technology." It is an integral component of t…

The Nobel Prize is a Trojan Horse, an Act of War disguised as a Prize of Peace. That no one up to now has called it what it is, is as disgusting as it is treasonous. Not anyone in any sphere, Left or Right, has dared to expose this breach against American National Security. (continued) Continue

Just recently the Army said the total number of potential or confirmed suicides since January stands at 82. Last year the Army recorded 133 suicides, the most ever.
Earlier this year, Army officials saw the suicide numbers moving up, and by February said the service was on track for a record year for suicides.
If the government, especially the Pentagon and the Veterans Dept., wanted to know why the rate of suicide among returning Vets was so high, they did not need to look any further than in…

I believe that what Congress plans to do to the 73 AIG executives (taking their bonuses with a Tax Law) is unconstitutional as it is a bill of attainder. We need to be careful in these things. Consider the issues below.
Definition: A legislative act that singles out an individual or group for punishment without a trial.
The Constitution of the United States, Article I, Section 9, paragraph 3 provides that: "No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law will be passed."
"The Bill of Attainder Clau…
