Subject: Fwd: 2.3% Medical Excise Tax ?????? !!!!!!!


The 2.3% Medical Excise Tax that began on January 1st is supposed to be “hidden” from the consumer, but it's been brought to the public’s attention by hunting and fishing store Cabela’s who have refused to hide it and are showing it as a separate line item tax on their receipts.

Anyone still believe Obama didn't raise taxes on the middle class?

Facebook bans Gandhi quote as part of revisionist history purge: "Among the many misdeeds of British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest." - Mohandas Gandhi, an Autobiography, page 446.

The Carmel Pine Cone's first story of the week

The Carmel Pine Cone's first story of the week: “President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people,” Eastwood told The Pine Cone this week. “Romney and Ryan would do a much better job running the country, and that’s what everybody needs to know. I may have irritated a lot of the lefties, but I was aiming for people in the middle.”

Time as an asset, not just fact

"An actor chooses means from his environment, in accordance with his ideas, to arrive at an expected end, completely attainable only at some point in the future. All action aims at rendering conditions at some time in the future more satisfactory for the actor than they would have been without the intervention of the action. Time is a means that man must use to arrive at his ends. It is a means that is omnipresent in all human action."

--Murray N. Rothbard. Man, Economy, and State with Power and Market

Gay Marriage: Killing the Democracy of the Dead | Crisis Magazine

Gay Marriage: Killing the Democracy of the Dead | Crisis Magazine: In his book, Orthodoxy, Chesterton wrote: “Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about. All democrats object to men being disqualified by the accident of their birth; tradition objects to their being disqualified by the accident of death. Democracy tells us not to neglect a good man’s opinion, even if he is our groom; tradition tells us not to neglect a good man’s opinion, even if he is our father.”  Paul Kengor

France's bonds sell for negative interest rate; Socialist President Hollande exacerbates circumstance by giving organized Labor an institutional role in creation of legislation.

"Hollande said he wants the constitution to require politicians to consult with unions before making any major labor decisions. "No law from the domain of economic and social life will be able to be voted by the Parliament without a phase of dialogue and consultation prior to it," he said.

In Monday's bond sale, the treasury sold three-month bonds at -0.005 percent, and six-month bonds at -0.006 percent. The treasury agency says it's the first time they have registered negative yields."  Assoc. Press Website, today.

This is just the action Sen. Steve Sweeney took when he joined the Senate in New Jersey.  He shepherded through legislation to have unions at the table during the planning phase for all govenment construction projects.

Mother Church and the Nanny State | Crisis Magazine

Mother Church and the Nanny State | Crisis Magazine: "The new style of the federal government, in speech after speech, to replace freedom of religion with freedom of worship is not innocent of calculation, for while permitting ritual acts of devotion within the walls of a building, it would limit the right to express religious beliefs in public discourse. In Orwellian semantics, soon enough even the commandment to love the sinner but hate the sin becomes “hate speech.” There are some religions, like some governments, that are intrinsically hostile to freedom of religion."  Rev. George Rutler.

Ms. Taniguchi,

I'm a lawyer here in N.J. and I am degreed in Political Science from the Univ. of N.C. at Chapel Hill. I've been looking at the stuff Mr. Brown and others have been preaching for many years.

Your article fails to detail the recent evidence that most of the Doomsday conclusions from Climate Science are nothing but junk. Take a look at Mr. Delingpole's works ( http://jamesdelingpole.com/ ) and Creighton's "State of Fear". Delingpole notes the evidence from this new Century's data shows the Earth's temperature cooling. Note the recent "rebellion" of the N.A.S.A. scientists. Isn't total glacier coverage on Earth increasing? Why didn't you challenge Mr. Brown concerning such matters.

"Climatgate", showed purposeful, pervasive climate science academic dishonesty at work.

Bottom Line: Reason dictates that "Going Green" or preaching "Sustainability" are best described as either political agenda or a Druid-like, Mother Earth centered quasi-religion. As political or quasi-religious agendas the goal of proponents is systematic control of human populations.

Just because Mr. Brown is a S.J. native son he shouldn't be given an assist by you in pulling the wool over our eyes.

Evolution, Human Dignity, and Crafting Public Policy | Crisis Magazine

Evolution, Human Dignity, and Crafting Public Policy | Crisis Magazine: "In secular discourse, the concept of morality can be no more fixed than a wax nose that can be manipulated and shaped by the one defining it. While one might not like the answer “thus saith the Lord,” it is hard to think that it is any less compelling than “because I say so.”  Blackburn.

Evolution, Human Dignity, and Crafting Public Policy | Crisis Magazine

Evolution, Human Dignity, and Crafting Public Policy | Crisis Magazine: “A man who has no assured and ever present belief in the existence of a personal God or of a future existence with retribution and reward, can have for his rule of life, as far as I can see, only to follow those impulses and instincts which are the strongest or which seem to him the best ones.” —Charles Darwin
Quoted by W. Charles Blackburn.

Lawless Christians | Crisis Magazine

We consider that a person is justified by faith apart from works of the law.
–Rom. 3:28
We have believed in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
–Gal. 2:16.

"Works of the law", as a phrase connotes that the good person on his own, without having faith in the resurrection attains little.

Juan Cole and Ivory Tower Anti-Catholicism

Juan Cole and Ivory Tower Anti-Catholicism: Santorum's ingenuity, as is the same with much Conservativism in America, is based upon there being a pervasive Madisonian "tyranny of majority" risk in so many aspects of life in America. He's all about there being no "consent of governed" in many areas of this life. PC notion runs rampant in such politized areas of science as environmental, cosmology and the social sciences including political science.

Israel's P.M.'s scary and no doubt accurate assessment of Middle East politics

"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is quick to disabuse anyone who believes that the uprisings could also have positive consequences. The Arab rebellion is developing into an "Islamic, anti-western, anti-liberal, anti-Israeli, undemocratic wave," the premier said in November. According to Netanyahu, the Arab world is "moving not forward, but backward," and anyone who believes Arabs and democracy are compatible is naïve."  Spiegel Online post.
