Democracy!!

Democracy: You get to vote for who oppresses you. That's freedom. --Unknown

THE appropriate question

Unfortunately, the appropriate question when viewing Western Main Stream Media is, "Who paid you to lie?" --L. Reichard White, April 6, 2011

Humanitarian war?????

"The phrase 'humanitarian war' is an oxymoron." --Noam Chomsky

Seer?

"If the so-called "anti-terrorist bill" [U.S.A. Patriot Act] is indeed signed tomorrow in the expected form, it will be looked on by future historians as the end of the United States as even a quasi-constitutional state and the beginning of potentially the most repressive police state in the history of the world." --L. Reichard White, N+N" The BIGGEST One, October 25, 2001, 07:33:16

White's Law of Halo Damping

If I perceive "The Government" is taking care of it -- or might take care of it -- or might not approve of what I do to take care of it -- at worst, I can relax awhile. At best, I can forget about it entirely. I egotistically call this "White's Law of Halo Damping." My personal response is damped within the halo of perceived government action. --L. Reichard White,  The Securitized Housing Investment Trust Has Hit the Fan By L. Reichard White - Price of Liberty 

Which is more dangerous -- politicians or guns?

"Let's ban politicians. They're ever so much more dangerous and uncontrollable than guns." --Bill St Clair, Wednesday, July 06, 2011 2:40 PM

How to Pack the Lies

"How do you include 20 lies in a 10 word sentence?

Hire a Government spokesman to write it." --L. Reichard White, Sunday, July 03, 2011 2:44 PM

Maybe this guy - - -

--Israeli Official Condemns Gaza Flotilla, Refuses to Deny Israeli Role in Sabotage of Boats"

Monumental misdirection

"Government schools teach WHAT to think instead of HOW to think. Which makes for uncritical consumers of propaganda." --L. Reichard White

The REAL definition

Nation: Imaginary alliance among millions of individuals who don't know each other, manipulated by hierarchical elites for fun and profit.  --L. Reichard White, Monday, May 23, 2011 1:14 AM

Biased?

Why do so-called "debunkers" spend all their time trying to debunk alternative conspiracy theories and virtually no time debunking the Establishment Conspiracy Theory?  --L. Reichard White, Saturday, May 21, 2011 10:05 AM

Universal epitaph

Note that Fascism (crony Capitalism) creates an internal struggle between the politicians and their contributors (businesspersons). This creates the false impression with the public that business and government are adversaries. While the specific winners and losers may change the game remains the same. The only constant losers are the outsiders, e.g., the tax payers. How ironic that the taxpayers indorse the system, decade after decade, century after century, but not the result. Those who blame business are called liberals. Those who blame big gov are called conservatives. We are getting what we deserve. Few understand the root of the problem: centralized power is not controllable, constructive, or rational. Every civilization has been destroyed by it and we are in our last decades.  --Don Duncan, May 11, 2011

Know The Truth and The Truth Shall - - -

Get you in trouble - - -

"An unchallenged lie becomes an unquestioned truth." --L. Reichard White

Which may be why,

"In [this] age of mass deception, telling the truth is a radical act." --Eric A. Blair, AKA George Orwell

And, finally,

"You will know you have spoken the truth when you are angrily denounced; and you will know you have spoken both truly and well when you are visited by the police." --J. B. R. Yant

Speak UP!!

Keep speaking common sense! Because when common sense is quiet, common non-sense takes over. --L. Reichard White, April 27, 2011, 01:54:17

Why you were hired - - -

A note to politicians: You weren't hired to get re-elected, you were hired to do what's right for your employers, "we the people."  --L. Reichard White, Tuesday, April 26, 2011 8:10 AM

The bad-guys: It's not who you think - - -

Remember, it's not the people who are paid to run it who are evil, stupid and incompetent, it's the system, the machine, itself. --L. Reichard White, Saturday, April 23, 2011 5:20 AM

A complete reversal of fortune?

"We used to pay off the mortgage and leave our kids the farm, now we mortgage the farm and leave our kids the payments." --The unknown truth-teller

The KEY economic insight - - -

"Money" obeys The Law of Supply and Demand. --L. Reichard White, Wednesday, April 20, 2011 7:50 AM

Dear Uncle --- by the way - - -

Dear Uncle Sam, why did you borrow $14.3 trillion instead of paying cash? --L. Reichard White, Tuesday, April 19, 2011 9:17 AM

By the way, what are you going to do about the estimated $65 trillion Medicare for our older folks is going to cost you? 

Rocket scientists - - -

"Attacking Iraq because of 9-11 would be like the U.S. attacking Mexico because of Pearl Harbor."  --White House terrorism adviser Richard Clark

"...the U.S. invaded a country [Iraq] that did not threaten us, had not attacked us and did not want war with us, to disarm it of weapons we have since discovered it did not have." --Patrick J. Buchanan, "Where The Right Went Wrong," quoted in --The Only Way to Make Your Vote Count

You can't handle the truth - - -

"Few of us can easily surrender our belief that society must somehow make sense. The thought that the state has lost its mind and is punishing so many innocent people is intolerable. And so the evidence has to be internally denied." --Arthur Miller (and thanks to Agente Snow)
