I'm starting to not have much love for the USA. Too many stupid people. Yes, we always had stupid people, but at least they had a bit of common sense. TV, and in particular the National news that used to be somewhat impartial, and report FACTS, has now changed to give the news caster talking head's opinion, and of course the Network owners opinion. Nothing can be trusted from these clowns. The brainwashing started when I was young, and continues full force. We can't elect good politicians, because there are not any! Ron Paul would have shook things up, and made it better, but he was considered too old, and the press made him out to be crazy. A man who wanted to follow the Constitution was labeled Crazy! The young people--who know nothing, are electing Presidents---we need to fix this in the next election. Everyone who bitches needs to vote! Go to nursing homes, and give them a ride to the voting booth! Our Country needs all of us to vote, or Hillary Rodham Clinton will be President.Cry the beloved country.Happy Birthday, USA!!!Tony, that was very good!

Time for bed. Have a good 4th all.G'night, Dave.
It's really no different now than it's ever been, in fact (all things considered) it's better than it's ever been, except during the 1990's. The problem right now is we've raised two generations of mama's boys who don't know how to hunt or shoot and have been overly sheltered except for the ones we sent into combat and then nickel-and-dimed their VA benefits. We don't have a government problem, we have a manhood crisis.I'm starting to not have much love for the USA. Too many stupid people.

What??? I disagree, Bret. We have a problem. Trillion dollar debt, and give Billions for stupid programs that do not work. We had an excess, not debt when some of these give away programs started. What does hunting and shooting have to do... you lost me. I live in a state where EVERYONE knows how to hunt and shoot, and that has nothing to do with voting for people that want to end the USA as we know it. Obama hates America--he really does. He has done nothing but try to break the bank, and ruin this Country.It's really no different now than it's ever been, in fact (all things considered) it's better than it's ever been, except during the 1990's.

Understand - my principles are conservative, in the sense of what conservatism should really represent. I don't care who anyone fucks, or marries, or what they smoke or drink or stuff up their noses, asses, vaginas, or veins.Bret, I liked this second rant. Because that is me personified!
What I know is that the government should stay out of our personal lives, and out of our wallets. The more money I have in my wallet, the more I'm gonna spend on cigars, and the more I'm gonna spend on parts for my Harley, and the more I'm gonna spend on my house. And that puts a lot of people in business. And the more cigars there are in my humidor, the more I'm gonna want to up and ship a box out to Steve, or Ken, or JR. The more I have in my wallet, the more I'm going to be willing to kick out to the homeless guy on the street, or my unemployed neighbor, or my church. The more I have in my wallet, the more likely I am to indulge my wife's sentiments that we should maybe adopt some troubled kid. The more I have in my wallet, the more I'll spend on firearms training so that I can dispatch the sumbitch who feels the need to splatter people's blood or steal their cash. That makes the world a better place.
But when Obama starts sticking his hands in my wallet, I turn into a tightwad. That makes the world worse off.
That's the kind of conservative I am.
Did everybody just go to sleep?Good morning JR, I wish I was asleep but I was just catching up on the two banters from last night.
Did everybody just go to sleep?Only 11:22 here. I figured y'all had nodded off. Just getting ready to light up the next cigar.
Basically, a Libertarian. It's very simple: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."YesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYesYes.

Read:In principle, I'm with you.
Libertarian Party Chair Nicholas Sarwark said, "Those words from the Declaration also hold true of political parties. The Republicans and Democrats have no interest in securing our rights -- they have become 'destructive of these ends,' and now spend most of their time working on new ways to violate our rights. It's time to throw them out."
Sarwark continued, "According to recent Gallup polling, 46% of Americans now consider themselves 'independent' from the Democratic and Republican parties. We urge the other 54% to join them.
"The Republicans and Democrats have maintained their power partly by fostering the illusion that they are significantly different from each other. Supporters are told that if the other team gets elected, the world will end. In reality, the Republicans and Democrats are so similar that it doesn't matter which of them are in power. George W. Bush and the Republicans grew government across the board. Barack Obama and the Democrats grew government across the board."

"The problem with Libertarianism is that if it's done right, it fails for lack of a structure to preserve it" What? No sense was made here.

But principles are easily bought. The problem with Libertarianism is that if it's done right, it fails for lack of a structure to preserve it. This is what I find so objectionable about the "top-two" primary systems. It allows political participation without principle.
The answer is not to throw all the sumbitches out, the answer is to put in the right sumbitches. I don't mind junkyard dogs, I just want them to recognize me from the last time I threw them some red meat. I want MY sumbitch in office.

Accountability? The two parties are not famous for that either. Who in Washinton is famous for accountability? It will be a revolution, or the end of this Country as we know it. It's already heading in that direction. This is not a case study in class--this is reality. Only so much can a man take. You are brainwashed that there has to be a two party system, but it has been in place for that reason--so we take sides, and it does not matter who wins. Because we all will loose. Maybe not in my lifetime, but maybe our kids lifetime. Wake up! You are spewing the pablum you were fed! Think without the political machine, and all of the brainwashing.Ouch! ;-) Fair enough."The problem with Libertarianism is that if it's done right, it fails for lack of a structure to preserve it" What?

Libertarianism, by definition, is suspicious of party structure. It relies on the principles of its adherents for its strength. Problem is, men of principle are few and far between. There's you, and me, and JR and Chip. KC. JWack, but JWack isn't everyone's cup of tea. And let's face it, I've compromised my principles so often I've got scars on my knees from it.
After that, how many men of principle do you know? I could introduce you to some up here - my friends Tim, Jay, Keith, Patrick, and Brad. My dad. My brothers. But then...what? How do you enforce discipline upon the weaker men with so few better men to wield the big stick?
This has always been the weakness of Libertarianism. It doesn't want to enforce accountability. It wants to presume that men are not only created equal, and endowed with inalienable rights, it wants to also presume that both their boldness and passivity are equally valid.
Looking back at yesterday's DDA, I can't believe what some of these guys are willing to bid just to win, the top guy almost doubled the starting price just so he could win some punch's.Auctions produce insanity. Sometimes I just have to shake my head and hope the winner really enjoys what he paid too much for.

I don't believe there should only be two parties. But there should be parties. They force their members into principle, discipline, and - when necessary and appropriate - compromise. That's the only way a Republic will work. The ideal of the "lone wolf" - Mr. Smith Goes to Washington - is a false ideal. In nature, the lone wolf has been rejected by the pack because he is deficient. The lone wolf is a leper, if not bodily, then socially.
Think about it in terms of the banter. Let's say I lose my job on Monday. I can't buy cigars, or booze to go with them. Now...if I've lived up to the unstated principles of the banter - don't be a dick, have something to contribute, be generous with what you have - then it would not be out of the question that the amigos here might send me some cigars, maybe some decent beers or booze. We enforce a certain principle here, and it benefits all. You once sent me a bunch of cigars, just because. You probably have no idea how often I've told the story of opening that box of cigars, or how man times you've been toasted. And because of that, I feel a burden to be generous with what I've got. So Steve inquired about Partagas D#4s, and I sent him one, along with one of each of the best I've got in my humidor. I did it because I wanted to emulate Ken. Steve tells me today he's sent me some cigars. I'm gonna send JR some cigars. We're all better for it, because there is the gentle - but unyielding - pressure to yield to the principles of the group.
The problem with Libertarianism - even though I agree with its principles - is that it doesn't want to shove itself down anyone's throat. But with humans, you gotta shove it down their throat most of the time.
Tell you what, when the revolution starts, I'll be with you on the front lines. You bring cigars, I'll bring scotch. And we'll both bring guns. ;-)Bret, has anyone ever told you that you think too much? Well, they were right. I do it too, so welcome to the club.

We enforce a certain principle here, and it benefits all. You once sent me a bunch of cigars, just because. You probably have no idea how often I've told the story of opening that box of cigars, or how man times you've been toasted. And because of that, I feel a burden to be generous with what I've got. So Steve inquired about Partagas D#4s, and I sent him one, along with one of each of the best I've got in my humidor. I did it because I wanted to emulate Ken. Steve tells me today he's sent me some cigars. I'm gonna send JR some cigars. We're all better for it, because there is the gentle - but unyielding - pressure to yield to the principles of the group.
The problem with Libertarianism - even though I agree with its principles - is that it doesn't want to shove itself down anyone's throat. But with humans, you gotta shove it down their throat most of the time.

Happy 4th of Jewly.Hah. Same to you, Oy. Finishing up a Monte White Churchill with Kona Longboard, brought to me by the national rep. Great summer beer. Had a Monte #2 ISoKW earlier, courtesy of a local BOTL. Said it was musty (from someone else). Boxing it in cedar for a couple months must have really helped. It was good.
