Today's Mention -- Rep. John Larson

Ronald Reagan was famous for, among other things, noting the citizens have a government, not the other way around. Some people are too stupid, or power-drunk, to have paid attention to that. Or to little thinks like the 8th, 9th, and 10th Amendments tot he U. S. Constitution. Those are some parts of that document that demand limited government. And are widely ignored by both major parties and virtually every judge in the land.

Here's another example. Another nanny-stater, another liberal fascist. Care to guess the party?
Worse yet, one with power. As in, House Democratic Conference Chairman John Larson (D-Conn.). The people of Connecticut have proven quite often their preference for liars, knaves, and traitorous creeps in their choices to send off to Washington (and the statehouse as well).

This blithering idiot, this nincompoop, this dolt with delusions of grandeur and importance has taken yet another step in thrusting the nation deeper into tyranny. He has decided that it is up to the (federal) government to ''... Compel Consumers to Use Alternative Energy''. Odd, a thorough reading of the powers granted to the federal government in that Constitution does not reveal ANY grant of power to do this.

This is a naked power grab by another liberal fascist. And YOU pay this bum's salary!
FIRE him!!

Today's (dis)-Honorable Mention

Go read the U.S. Constitution. It is not long, the words are not hard, it's worth the effort. You can find a copy on-line here. in pdf format. Or here. Every U.S. citizen should read it periodically, it's part of our vanishing heritage as a once-free nation.

Now, having done so, a question or two:

• do you see there, anywhere, the grant of power to a judge, at ANY level to ''make law''?
• do you see there, anywhere, any reference whatever to the supremacy of the judicial branch?
• any reference, perhaps, to 'precedent' as having a superior or even equal weight as the written statutes?

If your answer to the above is not only NO, but Heck, NO!!, congratulations. You have passed the test. Unfortunately, you have also proved yourself wiser and more intelligent (the terms are not synonymous) than virtually every judge and most every lawyer in the country.

Case in point. One fed judge with delusions of adequacy. Comes one creepo slinking about under the designator of U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly. By the way, this is yet another ''legacy'' of the sleazy Clinton mis-administration. And now this sad overindulger in good Oxygen has not only found ALL the above matters within the Constitution and, further, has imagined herself to be the female equivalent of 'The Superior Man' as the Ye Ching puts it. And has found the grant of power, somehow hidden from we lower beings, to put a stop to a rule change that worked its way through the Bush administration for years. Repead, YEARS. And this dimwit has deemed it, somehow, notwithstanding that, to be a 'last minute'' change. Guess she not only is not conversant with the Constitution as written, but has not spent much time pondering the plain meaning of the 2nd Amendment either.

FIRE her!

FIRE U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly

Arrogance and incompetence should have a remedy.

FIRE U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly
FIRE U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly

A New Low -- Banning Farmer's Markets??!?!?!

There is no nice way to put this: Obama and, it seems, ALL of the louts and goons who support him are fascisti in the most technically correct way. No, they don't wave banners with the swastika (or the hammer and sickle). Yet. But the more I see, the more that I see a bunch that would have supported Mao's 'Great Leap Forward', Stalin's war against the kulaks, or Benny Mussolini's campaigns.

Case in point: there is now a proposal, a serious one it seems to, well, let me quote a better writer than I am.

Change We Can Believe In: How About the End of Farmers Markets? Say Hello to H.R. 875: Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009

What this will do is force anyone who produces food of any kind, and then transports it to a different location for sale, to register with a new federal agency called the “Food Safety Administration.” Even growers who sell just fruit and/or vegetables at farmers markets would not only have to register, but they would be subject inspections by federal agents of their property and all records related to food production. The frequency of these inspections will be determined by the whim of the Food Safety Administration. Mandatory “safety” records would have to be kept. Anyone who fails to register and comply with all of this nonsense could be facing a fine of up to $1,000,000 per violation.

Neat, huh?

By some accounts, this could outlaw the hot-dog salesman, the pizza delivery, much else.

Let's play 'Guess The Party''!!
Ok, no fair. The author of this piece of asinine fascism is one Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-CT. You knew it would be a Democrat, didn't you? And you are not surprised, are you, that this chunk of human detritus originates from Connecticut? I mean really.

Tell me again why we fought against Hitler and Mussolini. It would appear that they won.

Barney Frank, Part 2 of Many

Some members of the Kakistocracy deserve to be named to the All-Star team. Barney Frank is one of those. We could, and may well, devote many a post to this creep and to the cloud of creeps around him, but not today.
At any rate, once in a while, someone else puts out something that is so good, you can't top it and instead need to give it wider play. Click on this and you will see what I mean.

Honorable Mention of 1 March 2009 The E.P.A.

Nincompoops.
Blatherskites.
Fascists (or is that fascisti ?)
Fools.
Meddling dolts.

Yep, that pretty well describes the EPA under the best of circumstances.

Now, get this. They have presumed the power to regulate the dust that comes about when farmers plow the fields that they thought were their own. One version of the story is here.

Shut down the EPA! Close it down! This is not, and never has been, an operation whose existence is to be found within the grant of powers of the US constitution. Bluntly, it's an illegal agency. Not just stupid, not just populated by unaccountable bureaucrats who answer to no citizen, but an operation funded by taxes, and whose very existence is a violation of the Constitution.

Close it down!

Today's Nominee -- Adolfo Carrion

Is it just me, or does the word ''carrion'' bring to mind a squished skunk on the side of the road? Well, at least the skunk part fits with this lout.
Does anyone other than me think that the use of the term ''czar'' to describe appointees to various offices within the Federal Executive is incompatible with a representative federal republic with severely limited central government reach and power, and accountability for all such? It does seem to be more than a bit too much like the various gauleiters under the National Socialists or the Blackshirts.
Such positions rarely attract good people, and here's another such case.
The person on stage is one Adolfo Carrion, formerly a borough president in the Bronx, and based upon this story in the NY Daily News, ''pay to play'' was not a stranger to him. Now Obamarama is putting him into the post of ''urban czar''.
Yep, more of that ''hope and change''.
