But all that spending was worth it because just look at the great results! So what exactly is the argument that Obama isn't a hugely incompetent failure? So far it's 'Look! Over there! A war on women!'

• This is not a matter of subjective theory, but of plain, historical fact. If there had never been a nation of Israel, there would have been no patriarchs, no prophets, no apostles, no Bible and no Saviour. In John 4:22, Jesus Himself summed all this up in one simple statement: "Salvation is from the Jews." Christians from all other racial backgrounds owe to the Jewish people a spiritual debt which can never be calculated.

• La mitad del camino no es más que volver sobre nuestros pasos. Deberíamos emprender el camino más corto, tal vez con el espíritu de una aventura eterna, para no regresar jamás, dispuestos a enviar nuestros corazones embalsamados sólo como reliquias a nuestros reinos desolados. Si estás dispuesto a dejar a tu padre y a tu madre, a tu hermano y a tu hermana, a tu mujer y a tu hijo y a tus amigos, y a no volver a verlos, si has pagado tus deudas, has hecho testamento, has arreglado tus asuntos y eres un hombre libre, entonces estás preparado para el camino.

  Henry David Thoreau

• A global financial cabal engineered a fraudulent housing and debt bubble [2008], illegally shifted vast amounts of capital out of the US; and used 'privatization' as a form of piracy - a pretext to move government assets to private investors at below-market prices and then shift private liabilities back to government at no cost to the private liability holder Clearly, there was a global financial coup d'etat underway.

• In Mexico, a poor country, higher education is of quite good quality -- and is free. Ten years ago the government tried to impose small fees. There was a national student strike and the government backed down. High tuition is not an economic necessity, as is easy to show, but a debt trap is a good technique of indoctrination and control. And resisting this makes good sense.
