America's Drone Terrorism

Here's how Obama is currently terrorizing innocent civilians all across the Middle East (and Romney fully endorses his policy, of course):

Sheldon Richman: "U.S. drone strike policies cause considerable and under-accounted-for harm to the daily lives of ordinary civilians, beyond death and physical injury. Drones hover twenty-four hours a day over communities in northwest Pakistan, striking homes, vehicles, and public spaces without warning. Their presence terrorizes men, women, and children, giving rise to anxiety and psychological trauma among civilian communities. Those living under drones have to face the constant worry that a deadly strike may be fired at any moment, and the knowledge that they are powerless to protect themselves.

The U.S. practice of striking one area multiple times, and evidence that it has killed rescuers, makes both community members and humanitarian workers afraid or unwilling to assist injured victims. Some community members shy away from gathering in groups."

Our so-called leaders

Our so-called leaders speak
With words they try to jail you
They subjugate the meek
But it's the rhetoric of failure

"We", "us", etc.

"We must, therefore, emphasize that "we" are not the government; the government is not "us." The government does not in any accurate sense "represent" the majority of the people. But, even if it did, even if 70 percent of the people decided to murder the remaining 30 percent, this would still be murder and would not be voluntary suicide on the part of the slaughtered minority." - Murray Rothbard

FYI for my friends supporting Mitt Romney because he is perceived as a great entrepreneur/businessman who is sympathetic to the small business owner. Ronald Reagan’s budget director David Stockman explains:

David Stockman: "...Except Mitt Romney was not a businessman; he was a master financial speculator who bought, sold, flipped, and stripped businesses. He did not build enterprises the old-fashioned way—out of inspiration, perspiration, and a long slog in the free market fostering a new product, service, or process of production. Instead, he spent his 15 years raising debt in prodigious amounts on Wall Street so that Bain could purchase the pots and pans and castoffs of corporate America, leverage them to the hilt, gussy them up as reborn “roll-ups,” and then deliver them back to Wall Street for resale—the faster the better.

That is the modus operandi of the leveraged-buyout business, and in an honest free-market economy, there wouldn’t be much scope for it because it creates little of economic value. But we have a rigged system—a regime of crony capitalism—where the tax code heavily favors debt and capital gains, and the central bank purposefully enables rampant speculation by propping up the price of financial assets and battering down the cost of leveraged finance."

The teacher from Billy Madison weighs in on Romney/Obama's debate.

"No matter the outcome of tonight’s debate, sources agreed that the most talented sociopath will likely be elected in November and, depending on what kind of support he might receive from like-minded sociopaths in Congress, will then spend the next four years satisfying his malformed brain’s ceaseless thirst for power and glory."

If you watch the debate tonight (I'm not), please keep this in mind: Paul Ryan voted for TARP, voted for the auto bailouts, voted for government stimulus packages, voted for every one of Bush's big government programs, and voted to increase the debt and deficit over and over and over. His fiscal plan will not cut one penny in actual spending, it only cuts the rate of spending increases. He is a big government Keynesian just like Joe Biden, just like Mitt Romney, just like Barack Obama. You'll hear only empty, meaningless, dishonest rhetoric.

I hate to rain on the Red Team vs. Blue Team hoopla, but...
