"The question that logically springs to mind is: 'Why not bring the National Guard home from Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia, Kosovo, etc. so that they will be available for deployment in emergencies by the state governors, rather than go down this dangerous road of nationalizing and militarizing our police powers?'"
Academic Freedom Day
"On Charles Darwin's 200th birthday (February 12, 2009), students everywhere can speak out against censorship and stand up for free speech by defending the right to debate the evidence for and against evolution. Let's make 'Darwin Day' 2009 Academic Freedom Day!"
Gun Control And Self-defense Against Terrorism In India
"I live in India and I am a proud firearm owner -- but I am the exception not the norm, an odd situation in a country with a proud martial heritage and a long history of firearm innovation. This is not because the people of India are averse to gun ownership, but instead due to Draconian anti-gun legislation going back to colonial times."
Our Fading Heritage: Americans Fail a Basic Test on Their History and Institutions
"According to the new Report on Civic Literacy by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI), there is an epidemic of historical, political and economic ignorance in America. If we fail to teach ourselves and our children how American freedom was established and preserved, we cannot expect to pass it on to future generations."
The Underground History of American Education - John Taylor Gatto

The Great Thanksgiving Hoax
"Each year at this time school children all over America are taught the official Thanksgiving story, and newspapers, radio, TV, and magazines devote vast amounts of time and space to it. It is all very colorful and fascinating."
An Introduction to Economic Reasoning
"These three books, all relatively short and available online here or for purchase, are an excellent starting point for an education in sound economics.
Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt
Essentials of Economics by Faustino Ballve
An Introduction to Austrian Economics by Thomas C. Taylor"
The Triumph of Imperial Christianity
"Imperial Christians have a warped view of Christianity. Aggression, violence, and bloodshed are contrary to the very nature of Christianity. And so is defending, making excuses for, condoning, encouraging, and supporting evil – even if it is committed by one’s government."
Evil Concealed by Money
"Imagine there's an elderly widow down the street from you. She has neither the strength to mow her lawn nor enough money to hire someone to do it. Here's my question to you that I'm almost afraid for the answer: Would you support a government mandate that forces one of your neighbors to mow the lady's lawn each week? If he failed to follow the government orders, would you approve of some kind of punishment ranging from house arrest and fines to imprisonment? I'm hoping that the average American would condemn such a government mandate because it would be a form of slavery, the forcible use of one person to serve the purposes of another. Would there be the same condemnation if instead of the government forcing your neighbor to physically mow the widow's lawn..."
Looking Beyond the Global Economic Summit
"The Washington summit, with its heads of state and other national and international dignitaries, may have attracted all the media attention, but the real action, for anyone who was paying close attention, was at the New York-based Council on Foreign Relations last Friday, when British Prime Minister Gordon Brown addressed a special session chaired by former Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin on the topic of the financial crisis. Brown, be it noted, has been shuttling back and forth across the Atlantic and among the countries of continental Europe over the past few weeks, lobbying for an ambitious new plan to globalize financial activity. Friday's presentation at the CFR left little doubt what Brown (and, presumably, a very sympathetic globalist elite at the CFR and elsewhere) truly intends to accomplish with the negotiations that kicked off over the weekend.
Brown spoke of the 'birth pangs of the new global order...'"
Conservatives Follow the Leader
"Every Republican president can count on the conservatives eventually supporting whatever policies he dishes out for one simple and profound reason: they hate the Left more than they hate the state. So in the end, they will back anything that keeps the Left out of power. By anything, I mean anything—military dictatorship, fascist central planning, state management of the whole of the culture. One wonders what horror they think they are preventing by opposing the Left."
GOP should ask why U.S. is on the wrong track
"The questions now being asked are: Where to go from here and who's to blame for the downfall of the Republican Party? Too bad the concern for the future of the Republican Party had not been seriously addressed in the year 2000 when the Republicans gained control of the House, Senate, and the Presidency. Now, in light of the election, many are asking: What is the future of the Republican Party? But that is the wrong question. The proper question should be: Where is our country heading?"

American Crisis Part 1
"At the end of 1776 Thomas Paine wrote a series of articles entitled “American Crisis.” This series played a critical role in saving the Revolutionary war against the British. Most of the British officers returned home for the winter thinking that the war was over. It was a very bleak time for the colonial army after their humiliating loss in New York. Most of the troops went home for the winter, and those that stayed were freezing and starving. Many defected to the British. Paine’s first letter in the American Crisis series shifted the public awareness, and troops enlisted and people donated essential materials. Paine articles had made a major impact. The fist letter began with this incredibly powerful statement:"
