In a totalitarian society your choices are narrowed: Keep silent and hide your principles, working to overturn the system from within or act as a public and vocal dissident. This young man has chosen the second path.

This is outrageous, and Libertarians, and the few Republicans left who are more concerned with liberty than the status quo, need to get involved.

Why don't they get their lobbyists to treat them? Better yet, a pox upon the lot of them! The politicians are beneath contempt. The only lowlifes lower than them...are those who keep them in office. You voted to keep Obamacare rolling when you voted for Comrade O and a social democrat Senate. If the imperial president and his imperial assistants in Congress are exempt, why does that surprise anyone? Do you think Putin goes to the corner clinic and stands in line? No. And Russia is more of a capitalist country than the US.

He is the "UN Human Rights Council's Palestine monitor". I find his comments unsurprising. His 'Palestinians', (actually Jordanians who were ejected from there decades ago), danced in the streets on 9/11. The UN is a blight. This vermin represents its virulent hatred for our country faithfully. We should abolish the UN, reclaim the valuable property occupied by these worthless parasites and be done with it. The League of Nations II is no better than the first one.

I am shocked, shocked, that president Hussein is spiriting away the Saudi operative back to the home of religious freedom and peace, Saudi Arabia. Why whatever could he be thinking? Incidentally, it's entirely possible that this is not in fact the Saudis, but Putin at work.

I nominate Congressman Jim Moran, who was indicted while mayor of Alexandria and has made a career of bad decisions, corruption and folly. Unfortunately I can't see the whole list and determine if he's there because Townhall is trying to force people to subscribe by putting part of the article behind a wall. Too bad. Guess they get taken off my browser's favorites bar.

The principle doesn't just apply to unemployment. When DC education officials determined that 80% of one program's high school grads are illiterate they found a solution: change the standards and claim a victory. After all, they are graduating more people, so the actual quality of the education doesn't matter. The same goes for fighter aircraft. After a trillion (yes, with a 'T') bucks spent on the new all forces fighter it flies like one of those toasters in old screen savers. No sweat. The standards have been changed and toasters declared superior to the better fighters produced by the Russians and Chinese, sometimes using stolen US technology and design. Inflation? Not there! Don't count food and gas. It's all good!

I'm done with Republicans. If someone wants to run as 'Tea Party Republican' or officially as a Libertarian, I'll consider them. I'm tired of the geriatric rhinos who run the Grand Old Party, and I'm going to vote accordingly. Rand Paul had my support in the Kentucky senate race and has my support now.

Actually, Obama isn't Lenin, Stalin or Brezhnev. Obama is Kerensky. Incompetent, idealistic, and in the right place at the right time. It's a historic process as seen in Russia's revolutions (yes, there were two). First comes the 'pink' revolution of the Kerensky's to overturn the established order, then comes the real rodents and reptiles like Lenin and his gang.

Beckel is a graduate of the Jimmy Carter Institute of Anti-American and Anti-Semite Studies (vernacular name, the Carter Administration). He is the only talking head on TV whose presence on a panel makes me IMMEDIATELY change channels.
