Republican Brain, Asteroid Mining, & Evolution In Schools

Do liberals and conservatives have different brains? Is science in
trouble in America? What is the point of 'asteroid mining'? Cara Santa
Maria (senior science correspondent at The Huffington Post) leads this
weeks panel to discuss these issues and more with PhD Tim Lee
(scientist turned comedian), K.C. Cole (science writer, USC journalism
professor), and Max Lugavere (filmmaker, musician, science
journalist). Special thanks to Chris Mooney (author of 'The Republican
Brain'), Linda Darling-Hammond (professor and author of 'The Flat
World In Education'), and Phil Plait (The Bad Astronomy Blog) for
sending in points.

Re: FOX Decides to Report on Ron Paul (They must really be nervous)

Because, " Paul can't win and none of this matters" in the overall scope of things. What some of these talking heads miss, is what the Paul campaign's goal is. I hope that you don't miss it either.....

FOX Decides to Report on Ron Paul (They must really be nervous)

J.M. emails:

I just watched Shepard Smith and Carl Cameron discussing Ron Paul's latest delegate victories in Maine and Nevada. Shepard sarcastically mocked Ron Paul's supporters who claim he still has a chance, and Cameron sneered at the camera and stated that it is "mathematically impossible" for Ron Paul to win. They briefly discussed his victories in Maine and Nevada, but claimed that there is still no chance Ron Paul will be anything other than a speaker at Romney's convention. Carl Cameron also claimed that those delegates in Nevada that are Paul supporters would not vote for Paul on a second ballot if somehow Romney did not win a majority on the first ballot!

Also, the topic of a floor nomination from winning five state delegate pluralities was brought up, but Cameron dismissed this as not being very likely since he expressed doubt Paul would even win five states because many of these Paul victories are in places where delegates are bound to vote for Romney. The interesting thing about that is Carl Cameron admitted Paul would have five states as victories the other day on Foxnews:

http://www.lewrockwell.com/politicaltheatre/2012/05/fox-news-admits/

I guess much like Paul Krugman and the other members of the DC establishment, it is hard to keep their stories straight when they are busy deceiving the American public.

What is interesting is how in the past Foxnews has done its best to ignore covering Paul -- or even intentionally show the reaction to the previous year's CPAC straw poll vote since it was far more negative -- yet now they are giving him coverage? It is clear that they are very concerned at exactly what is taking place with Paul's efforts in the GOP race, not to mention basically ignoring how the Paul supporters are taking over the state parties. Why else would they be bringing back the talking points that Paul can't win and none of this matters? If what Paul is doing now does not matter, why were they covering it?

Obama Has a Little List for Congress

Obama Has a Little List for Congress
"President Obama plans to give Congress a "To Do List" today that he says will create jobs and "help restore middle class security," the White House said." ( USA Today)

How about a "To Undo List"?

Is Anyone Still for Limited Government?
Spontaneous Order, Not Government Programs, Makes America Great
Doug Bandow
September 1998 • Volume: 48 • Issue: 9 •

Doug Bandow, a nationally syndicated columnist, is a senior fellow at the Cato Institute and the author and editor of several books, including Tripwire: Korea and U.S. Foreign Policy in a Changed World.

The collapse of the supposed Republican Revolution has demonstrated the truth of George Wallace's taunt three long decades ago: there ain't a dime's worth of difference between the major parties. Today both Democrats and Republicans offer higher spending, new social programs, increased tax collections, and a more complex tax code.

But the demise of the conservative revolution extends far beyond the usual suspects. Republican lawmakers can at least plead political necessity. More bizarre is the end of any pretense of commitment to limited government among many supposed conservative intellectuals.

Last year Republicans boosted the budget, created a new health-care entitlement that will only grow over time, added funds for the usual job training programs that have never worked, and passed a tax bill that legislates envy. This year they approved a bloated transportation bill stuffed with an unprecedented amount of pork.

So far they've been expanding government only haphazardly, without any intellectual framework. But William Kristol and David Brooks of the Weekly Standard are working to provide such a foundation. They argue that government needs to promote national greatness. It is at base a profoundly statist notion. While those silly Americans might want to engage in the normal things of lifefamily, career, hobbies, and moregovernment needs to direct their attention elsewhere. They must be conscripted into some grand crusade by their betters, those far-seeing politicos who really know what greatness is.

What is this but twentieth-century "liberalism"? The Democratic presidents Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and Jimmy Carter all demanded that Americans join in one crusade or another. And the pitch was always national greatnessalphabet-soup agencies to regulate the economy; expansive and expensive programs to clothe, feed, and nurture the population; massive militaries to make global war; internal crusades to end poverty and achieve energy independence. Bill Clinton attempted to follow suit with his proposal to nationalize the health-care system.

Kristol and Brooks formally recoil from left-wing statism, but Roosevelt's call to overcome the Depression, Johnson's attempt to end poverty, and even Bill Clinton's initiative to provide universal health care all obviously reflected "a national goal," in Brooks's words. How does "national greatness" conservatism differ? Writes Washington Post columnist E. J. Dionne: "Kristol and Brooks have to explain where they differ from Democrats, who also favor 'limited but energetic' government. Using government on behalf of 'national greatness' could get you right back to the New Deal."

Kristol and Brooks seek to avoid the problem by offering few specifics. But David Brooks has cited the Library of Congress, national parks, and antitrust enforcement as examples of "grand American projects." Uh, right. A rousing call to recharge Justice Department enforcement of the Sherman Antitrust Act would help avoid democracy's tendency to, in his words, "slide into nihilistic mediocrity."

The basic problem is that advocates of "national greatness" have an impossible dream. They denounce "the complacent mediocrity and petty meddling of the nanny state," urging instead what Brooks terms a "limited but energetic government." Alas, the American (and, indeed, human) experience suggests that no such government is possible: the state is the ultimate imperialist. If it can conscript money and manpower for grand national crusades, it cannot be limited.

Kristol told Dionne: "Are we willing to say that the country is worse off because of FDR or JFK or LBJ? I'm not willing to say that." So much for limited government. National greatness obviously trumps liberty. One must, in fact, wonder why Kristol opposed Clintoncare.

Incredibly, Kristol and Brooks, like Clinton, go on to ask: How is it possible for people to "love their nation if they hate its government?" They apparently see no difference between society and state.

But what better reaction than contempt is there to a system that loots the taxpaying public for any project supported by an interest group with a letterhead listing more than three people? Real patriots should loathe agencies that brutalize and even kill people simply desiring to be left alone. Disgust is the only appropriate reaction to politicians who preach freedom while delivering higher spending, more complex taxes, and more intrusive regulation. This government deserves criticism precisely because it falls so far short of the greatness of the country it purports to represent.

What of Brooks's concern that "democracy has a tendency to slide into nihilistic mediocrity if its citizens are not inspired by some larger national goal"? And that people lose "a sense of grand aspiration and noble purpose" when "they think of nothing but their narrow self-interest, of their commercial activities"?

The questions should be asked, but Kristol and Brooks are looking for answers in the wrong place. Democracy is usually mediocre, if not nihilistic. There was certainly nothing particularly virtuous about American politics a century ago, at the time when Congress decided to build Brooks's beloved Library of Congress. Venality was hardly unknown even at the nation's founding. National goals do arise, but they generally reflect exogenous crises, not contrived campaigns.

Moreover, most political questions are decided on the narrow self-interest of voters, especially those who have a great enough financial interest to organize. American politics has never been free of self-interest. Today pork-barrel projects persist and Social Security survives because those who benefit resolutely support "their" programs. Overcoming such selfishness requires a far more fundamental transformation, a regeneration of the soul. And that is more likely to occur when one has a realistic assessment of government, particularly the recognition that it is not an effective means to national greatness.

Nevertheless, Kristol and Brooks want government to inform its citizens' hopes rather than organize their resentments. Fair enough. But that can be best achieved by leaving people alone. "It almost doesn't matter what great task government sets for itself, as long as it does some tangible thing with energy and effectiveness," writes Brooks. But of course it matters. People want genuine meaning for their lives. Such meaning is not provided by government projects, no matter how much some intellectuals may think they promote national greatness.

In the end, most people want simple things: to provide for their families, succeed at work, enjoy their hobbies and friends, and fulfill their responsibilities to their neighbors. They should be left alone to pursue their own hopes, not drafted to support the latest fad endorsed by an ephemeral congressional majority. It is people acting together, in community with one another, pursuing shared goals that makes America great. Not some program pushed by government social engineers, whether of the left or right.

The PTI's strategy to mobilise and focus on the youth will work well in urban areas where they can influence their elders' opinions, but not villages where majority of youth are uneducated and under stronger parental influence, being more traditional society. Also voting is more influenced by powerful land mafias, religious linkages, and brathery traditions. Men like Shah Mahmood Qureshi can be of great help in developing the policy approach.

May be there the party will have to indoctrinate local revolutionary ideologues to lead local campaigns to work on the rural population. It is much tougher challenge than the urban areas. A lot of thought has to go into it.

For the upcoming general election, they have started their preparations.

* They have spent Billions and get vast majority in Senate.
* Deployed and transfer their party workers with excellent benefits on government positions.
*  They are feeding their workers by providing them sufficent amount and benefits. Result is that the greedy workers will cut their heads for his Mafia party in upcoming elections.    Simple Formula is that Worker Happy = Party Happy and Party Happy = To make government easy.
* On the other hand ANP, MQM and PML-Q providing Oxygen (Support) to PPP, and if it continues till upcoming general elections,  PPP will be again the ruling party. and their will be "No change".

Re: US Supreme Court: Citizens must be permitted to use handguns for self-defense: Treaties Do Not Supercede The Second Amendment!

It would be manifestly contrary to the objectives of those who created the Constitution, let alone alien to our Constitutional history and tradition to construe Article VI (the Supremacy Clause) as permitting the United States to exercise power under an international agreement, without observing Constitutional prohibitions. In effect such construction would permit amendment of that document in a manner not sanctioned by Article V. -- Reid v. Covert (1957), 354 U.S. 1

Re: Romney Operatives Caught Handing Out Fake Ballots In Nevada AND Maine

Romney Operatives Caught Handing Out Fake Ballots In Nevada AND Maine
Attempts to divide and disrupt official Ron Paul delegate slates; Romney sends in lawyer that stole election for Bush in 2000
Steve Watson
Infowars.com
May 7, 2012

Two separate incidents captured on video this weekend reveal desperate attempts by Mitt Romney operatives to divide and disrupt official Ron Paul endorsed delegate slates by handing out fake ballots to attendees at the state conventions in Nevada and Maine.

The video below captured by Ron Paul supporters in Nevada on Saturday exposes a provocateur wearing a Ron Paul T-shirt being caught handing out a fake delegate ballot in an attempt to dilute Ron Paul supporters' votes.

The ballot that the man was handing out looked very similar to the official Ron Paul endorsed slate, and was even printed on the same lime green colour paper. However, the names on the ballot were different.

It is not clear whether the man was officially affiliated with Romney, however, it is clear that he had a fake ID and was passing out fraudulent documents designed specifically to look like the official Ron Paul delegate slate for Nevada.

Watch the video:

http://youtu.be/eVGxCUomyVk

Remarkably, this was not an isolated incident. The very same thing happened in Maine, indicating that there has been a coordinated effort by Romney operatives to trick Ron Paul supporters into diluting their votes.

As Paul campaign volunteer Ginger Taylor explains in the following video, Romney supporters circulated not one but two different slates, to make Paul voters think there had been a change in the official list of delegate nominees that were being endorsed by the Paul campaign.

Paul supporters, including Taylor herself, were forced to officially announce a withdrawal of their "nomination" to the national convention as delegates, even though they had never agreed to stand in that capacity.

http://youtu.be/IcgOuuM1VkM

The attempts to dilute the vote and swing more delegates Romney's way ultimately failed miserably thanks to the quick thinking and alertness of Paul supporters.

Paul won a huge majority with 22 of the 25 Nevada delegates up for grabs, leaving Romney with only 3. In Maine, Paul supporters were elected to 21 of the 24 delegate spots.

The under the radar strategy to win delegates by Paul Ron Paul supporters is starting to pay off. In addition to Nevada and Maine, the Congressman has now won a majority of delegates from Iowa, Louisiana, Massachusetts, and Minnesota with many other caucus states expected to follow.

In some states, including Nevada, party rules adopted last fall, dictate that since Romney won the caucuses he will get a set number of delegates who are bound to vote for him.

Paul supporters say delegates will abide by those rules in the first round of balloting at the national convention in Tampa, but that all bets are off if there is more than one round of balloting.

As we reported last week, the Republican National Committee has threatened to refuse to allow the entire delegation for Nevada to be seated at the national convention, because Paul supporters have secured a majority of delegate slots.

Now, with Paul's victory in Maine, the Romney campaign has dispatched top lawyer Benjamin Ginsberg to challenge the results. Ginsberg was George W. Bush's lawyer 2000 and helped secure the now infamous Florida recount, which ultimately secured Bush the presidency.

Charles Cragin, a Romney supporter who lost Saturday's bid to chair the convention, called the turn of events in Maine "bizarre." Cragin threatened that the Paul-led delegation may not be recognized at the national convention because of "violations of rules of procedure" this weekend in Augusta.

"They have so phenomenally screwed this up that they will go to Tampa and not be seated," Cragin said.

http://youtu.be/jgc4mfudmOw

It is becoming increasingly clear that the Romney campaign and GOP officials are fretting over the resurgence of Ron Paul's campaign and fear that Paul supporters could still have a huge impact on the outcome of the nomination process.

Romney supporters and potential operatives have now been caught red-handed engaging in dirty tricks in an attempt to derail Paul's surge.
