The king of all RINOs is indeed Ron Paul, who, as the most genuinely conservative politician out there, behaves nothing like real Republicans have behaved from the beginning, as big government statists. Those of us fooled into thinking the Republican party, at least at the institutional level, has ever truly been the home of any form of conservatism our founders would recognize need to wake up and see reality for what it is.

You have expressed what was my only real complaint about the Judge’s show (I don’t see Stossel’s show very often, but I do read his WND columns).
Why, I would say to myself, is the Judge putting someone like Nancy Skinner on his ‘Freedom Panel’ when she obviously doesn’t believe in freedom? She may be a good talker, but is that reason enough to put her on his show and dilute the freedom message in the process? I think the ‘Fair and Balanced’ thing has gone a little too far. To paraphrase Rush Limbaugh, they don’t have to be fair and balanced – they are the balance!

The MSNBC giggle squad (your link) is babbling on the babble of the process of the process…… god this is all so hopeless….. My nephews Macaws and Cockatoos make more sense

Perhaps the biggest denial is that “politics” or “the voters” can create their own version of Economic Law (such as government creating wealth from nothing) any more than they can change the laws of Physics.

I disagree, however, with your labeling of the big government hypocrite Warlfare-Welfare statists as “RINO”. The 80% – 95% of the Republican party mainstream worship Bush/McCain/Romney/Gingrich/Perry/Cain/Santorum and the professional hacks who control the Republican party. Like the communists of old, they applaud on command and cheer Drug Plans and Educational Initiatives offered by Republicans and boo on command if the same baloney comes out of the mouth of a Democrat.

I met Ron and Carol Paul at a fundraiser in Virginia and several other people who are committed FIRST to liberty, the Constitution, and limited government – and second to various politicians. I discussed our local VA-11 Congressional Republican candidate whose only item he would cut from the government was “waste”. Several of us talked how we preferred and admired Marine James Webb (pro-gun anti-war Democrat now retiring from the Senatorial whorehouse) over professional Republican George “Macaca” Allen (a primary opponent of George Allen was at the Paul fundraiser). Many of us at that fundraiser would happily support Ron Paul if he ran as an independent in Fall 2012 (but it would probably sink Rand).

“We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality.” – Rove (?)

In the past, when such things still mattered, each statement may have served either to have the claimant committed to the stocks, prison, or a mental institution.

Now you get to be the rear end of the ruling class.

Well, to continue, just the names Skinner & Heldman grind in my ears. Jeffers makes me puke. These deniers of economic realities and their social justice solutions are, quite simply, mythology in the making. Fascism, Communism, and philosophically-similar myths are what perverts what could be productive self-actualizing individuals into messengers and actors who eventually conclude that the mass extermination of their scapegoats is appropriate. History repeats…but are the repeats based on facts or fictions?

TRUTH IS HARD TO FIND.

Where are the geographic locations of the entities – the vaults of recorded historical truth – and who are their masters – the supposed guardians of recorded historical truth – and how is the veracity of the messengers of truth proven?
