This, as I've pointed out in the past, isBizarro Conservatism– a doctrine that preaches the preciseoppositeof what the traditional "less government," pro-individual rights conservativesused tobelieve."Showdown at Neocon CentralNewt Gingrich vs. Ron PaulbyJustin Raimondo, November 25, 2011
> > The Republican "national security"debatesponsored byNeocon CentraltheAmerican Enterprise Instituteand theHeritage Foundationcaptured perfectly the intellectual and political bankruptcy of the Republican party when it comes to foreign policy. Here the party's panderingdemagoguery, reflexiveultra-nationalism, and visceralhostility to libertywas on full display in all its exhibitionistic belligerence. It was only natural, therefore, that the first question was asked by disgraced former US Attorney GeneralEdwin Meese, who was forced to resign as Reagan's AG as a result of his complicity in obtaining big defense contracts for a phony "minority"-owned company. Here is his "question":"At least 42 terrorist attacks aimed at the United States have been thwarted since 9/11. Tools like the Patriot Act have been instrumental in finding and stopping terrorists. Shouldn't we have a long range extension of the investigative powers contained in that act so that our law enforcement officers can have the tools that they need?"What a set up forNewt Gingrich! And he certainly took advantage of it: naturally he was given the first answer –with poor Herman Cain having outlived his usefulness and been unceremoniouslydumped, Newt is the "mainstream" media'snew darling. That's because he can always be counted on to reiterate the neocons' favorite talking points, and on this occasion he did not disappoint:"BLITZER: Speaker Gingrich, only this weekend there was an alleged terror plot uncovered in New York City. What do you think?
> > "GINGRICH: Well, I think that Attorney General Meese has raised a key point, and the key distinction for the American people to recognize is the difference between national security requirements and criminal law requirements.
> > "I think it's desperately important that we preserve your right to be innocent until proven guilty, if it's a matter of criminal law. But if you're trying to find somebody who may have a nuclear weapon that they are trying to bring into an American city, I think you want to use every tool that you can possibly use to gather the intelligence.
> > "The Patriot Act has clearly been a key part of that. And I think looking at it carefully and extending it and building an honest understanding that all of us will be in danger for the rest of our lives. This is not going to end in the short run. And we need to be prepared to protect ourselves from those who, if they could, would not just kill us individually, but would take out entire cities."In less than 200 words, Newt managed the wholesale bifurcation of American law into two parallel tracks, one that acknowledges how "desperately important" it is to "preserve your right to be innocent until proven guilty," and the other which recognizes no such necessity – and, in fact, negates it.
> > Oh, isn't he glib – isn't heclever? With a mere sleight of hand he has obviatedtheConstitutionand upended the legal and moral traditions of two hundred years. What an achievement! He smiles agreasy, easy grin,well-pleased with himself. The audience dutifully applauds.
> > "I've spent years studying this stuff," he adds, and one could well believe he had indeed spent years learning how to start out with a libertarian premise –"It's desperately important that we preserve your right to be innocent until proven guilty"– and coming out the other end with a purely authoritarian conclusion. This, as I've pointed out in the past, isBizarro Conservatism– a doctrine that preaches the preciseoppositeof what the traditional "less government," pro-individual rights conservativesused tobelieve.
> > Newt'sclash with Ron Paulover this issue defined the parameters of the subsequent hour or so: this was the firstPaul-centricdebate, preceded by hisrise in the pollsand his increasingly important role as theideologicalcatalystof this GOP presidential primary. Once again, as in the economic sphere – with even former Federal Reserve board memberHerman CainechoingPaul's callto audit the Fed – the Texas congressman set the tone of the discussion with his ringing defense of the Founders' concept of what freedom means:"I think the Patriot Act is unpatriotic because it undermines our liberty. I'm concerned, as everybody is, about the terrorist attack. Timothy McVeigh was a vicious terrorist. He was arrested. Terrorism is still on the books, internationally and nationally, it's a crime and we should deal with it.
> > "We dealt with it rather well with Timothy McVeigh. But why I really fear it is we have drifted into a condition that we were warned against because our early founders were very clear. They said, don't be willing to sacrifice liberty for security.
> > "Today it seems too easy that our government and our congresses are so willing to give up our liberties for our security. I have a personal belief that you never have to give up liberty for security. You can still provide security without sacrificing our Bill of Rights."Newt thought he'd won by making a dramatic pause and intoning:
> > "Yes. Timothy McVeigh succeeded. That's the whole point."Looking like a Halloween pumpkin left out in the rain, Gingrich went into novelist mode,scaring the childrenwith the specter of "losing a major American city" and bringing his fist down hard on the podium as he thundered"I want a law that says, you try to take out an American city, we're going to stop you!"Paul's answer wasperfect:"This is like saying that we need a policeman in every house, a camera in every house because we want to prevent child-beating and wife-beating. You can prevent crimes by becoming a police state. So if you advocate the police state, yes, you can have safety and security and you might prevent a crime, but the crime then will be against the American people and against our freedoms. And we will throw out so much of what our revolution was fought for. So don't do it so carelessly."In short: why not just set up a dictatorship and be done with it? Paul is too polite to point out that Newt would make theperfectdictator, strutting about the stage and puffing out his chest like a peacock on parade – so I will.
> > I thought I detected an elegiac note in Paul's remarks, a sadness in his voice as he pleaded with his audience not to throw away the Founders' gift "so carelessly." As if he fears that they probably will, anyway.
> > There is reason for pessimism: we are, after all, living in a time when a half-bakedprofessionalbloviatorlike Gingrich is considered a conservative "intellectual." With the help of the "mainstream" media – which would like nothing more than to see the singularlyunattractiveandbaggage-ladenGingrich up againsttheir heroObama – the Newtster is having his moment in the sun. It will, however, be a brief moment – and he's not really running for president anyway.Everyone knowshis campaign has been a vanity project and moneymaking operation from the outset.
> > Quietlygaining traction, the growth and development of the Paulian movement occurring largelybeneaththe media's radar, the Paul campaign has achieved tremendous gains for the peace movement in America. No matter how it ends, it has created a new chapter in the history of the foreign policy discourse in this country: anti-interventionism is no longer considered the exclusive preserve of the "radical" left. For the first time since the 1930s, the anti-imperialist tendency in American conservatism is in the ascendant: theOld Rightisback, more organized andintellectually coherentthan ever.
> > This is a development the neocons have longfeared, and the viciousattackson Paul coming fromthose quartersare bound to increase in number and intensity as the campaign succeeds in becoming theconservative alternativeto thesupposedly"inevitable" Mitt Romney.
> > Gingrich's job in all this is to act as the "moderator," the Deep Thinker who polices the discussion, always on the lookout for any deviation fromneoconservative orthodoxy. His role-playing is underscored by thepost-debatespeculationover whether he imperiled his rising star by taking a "soft" stand on immigration.
> > It may seem passing strange that someone so concerned about a nuclear bomb being smuggled into a major American city would take such a lax attitude about policing our borders. But that's the Newtster for you: he can think up an argument foranything– even taking$1.6 millionfromFreddie Macwhile at the same timeclaiming to be in favor of abolishing it! I tell you, the man's a genius – and if you don't believe that, then just ask him. After all, he's "spent years studying this stuff."
> > There's nothing new in Newt's stance on immigration: he's been saying the same thingfor years. He said at the debate he's "willing to take the heat" on this issue because the neocons – who see America as a "universal nation," like Rome, Great Britain, and the other great empires of the past – have always been for amnestying so-called illegal aliens.

For this offer to work, we need make an arrangement regarding the
referees. My original offer was a bit different: either you get 100
dollars or you get a free book or free junk food. In other words, it
was a one-sided offer. I did not need to pay someone's expenses or the
other way around. I had an allocated budget for that and regardless
the judgment of the referees I was going to achieve my goal: start
rational dialogue in an environment where warmonger's confrontational
propaganda of hostility and bloodshed is popular.
So, offer a method to select an impartial referee, then I will take
your proposal, preferrably in Tucson.
Peace,

Virginia has a history that caused her to become the mother of FF presidents.
That history still shows within the extraordinary beauty of Virginia's constitution and statutes.
Virginia's law is still enables her to save the constitutional republic of the United States if she will first save herself from the custom of cavalier conceits of authority whose toxic culture came to the 'Old Dominion' with refugees from the English Civil War.
Virginia appears to be the only state that has a law equivalent to VA18.2-481(5) where 'Resisting the execution of the laws under the color of its authority' is defined as 'Statutory Treason'.
In 1619 slavery had no lawful basis under the English common law written upon the hearts of its people – Slavery in Virginia started as no more than the cavalier criminal conceit of 'Our law will not protect you – as far as you are concerned I am the law'. That purely criminal evil is still with us and is conclusively evidenced by EVERY officer of our courts – Yet, if confronted and pardoned by our Governor upon the penitent virtue of toothy parole oath that evil can be removed from Virginia's future.
Yes, and even our country's future because every Virginia federal judge is still a member of the Virginia Bar , still an officer of the courts of Virginia, and so deemed by the presumptions of Virginia law to professionally know the law so that they must recognize VA18.2-481(5) felony when it occurs and so are conclusively evidenced as having at LEAST criminally perpetrated felony VA18.2-482 'Misprision of Treason'.
ALL such officers must plead for pardon or eventually be condemned by our law – under God – that requires that ALL felony, and conditions that foster felony, be presented to a grand jury until the felony is properly judged. Our Governor's pardon is the best and only way out of the felony condemnation due every lawyer and judge in Virginia, INCLUDING Virginia's federal judges!
'Constitution Reset' naturally cascading from Virginia can gently and gracefully save our country.
The Question that remains is 'Does Virginia still have the heart to raise leaders ready to face God?'
All prayer warriors, please remember us. May we become fit to serve God & Country as our law requires.

RE: Warning: Stop war against people; disband Rapid Action Battalion (RAB)
Dear Prime Minister,
I am William Nicholas Gomes, human rights activist and journalist. I have observed the overwhelming human rights violations in Bangladesh.
Your government is in war against the ordinary people of Bangladesh.
The state can be titled as dysfunctional under ruling of your government. Each and every ministry is corrupted with corruption. The judiciary and the law enforcement agencies became tools of subjugate the opposition parties or to anyone trying to expose the dysfunctional character of your government.
Your government is in war against, the people of Bangladesh. The government that you are leading is clearly is not pro people government. Your government became a government of few elected dictators by the cost of many and that is what set you in war against the people of Bangladesh.
The law enforcement agencies and the security forces care little for the ordinary people of Bangladesh. The special unit of Bangladesh police, killing squad Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) became the licensed killing tools of government; as a result the cross fire and now a days the disappearances had crossed any past record.
Due process of law does not exist in practice other than in the theory and in the law books in Bangladesh.
You had followed the legacy of politicizing the judiciary. Suppressing the Mass media , the share market had looted , people is now in road and every day your ministers are costing the people and living the life of luxury at the cost of ordinary people of Bangladesh.
US invasion on Iraq, Afghanistan were criticized by the progressive forces all over the world. The situations of Bangladesh became worst than the Iraq or Afghanistan, the imperialist find out the group betrayers lead by you. Then they need not to run any invasion in Bangladesh, your government is enough to loot the country's people by declaring war against them. There is no democracy in the country.
You had signed a secret agreement with the Indian government and by breaching the international human rights standard. You had guided the killing squad RAB to work with special unit Indian intelligence RAW to arrest and illegally hand over the Indian citizens, especially the people associated with United Liberation Front of Asom.
You have successfully used the law enforcement agencies, specially the killing squad Rapid action battalion. Our sources have confirmed that the intelligence unit of RAB has prepared a list of the political people who are very active in anti government activities. The list includes mainly the people of main opposition party, BNP and Jamat e Islami. These people will be tortured, killed and many of them will face enforced disappearances as the anti government movement grows. You are leading the nation towards violence .
I have lunch the SMS campaign as a part of my continuous effort to "BAN RAB". All the battalion of RAB , and every cabinet minister have already received the warning message and appeal to disband the RAB . I will continue to run the SMS camping until you disband the RAB and bring them under the law.
I warn you to stop war against the people of Bangladesh. Disband the Rapid action battalion now and form a special tribunal to investigate all the allegations of torture, cross fire, disappearances and make all possible effort to bring them under the law.
I thank you for the attention you give to this letter.
Sincerely,
William Nicholas Gomes
