Like in the 70s?

Posted by The New THOMA$ REPORT on Saturday, July 19, 2008 2:20:27 PM

Not even close! Many liberals (and their dupes who have been "conditioned" to believe their lies) think so. One thing we don't have now is price controls. Another is the threat of gasoline shortages. I remember carrying around two five-gallon cans of gasoline in case I couldn't find a place to gas up. Dangerous? Maybe. But I was young and foolish, and I BELIEVED much of the propaganda the liberals were putting out then (as now). Just for info: I never had to use that gasoline and it "went bad" after a while. And I was driving a Chrysler, which was a little like driving a city block. (Which means the rumors of a gasoline "shortage" were as phony as the liberals' other lies. What bothers me about today is the possibility of having to suffer "Jimmy Carter's second term" if Barack Obama gets elected with a big Democrat majority in Congress. (Café Hayek)

"We Need More Studies"

Posted by The New THOMA$ REPORT on Saturday, July 19, 2008 2:18:18 PM
That's the standard operating procedure for bureaucracies to use in delaying progress anywhere. Of course, many of those "studies" are conducted by "friends" of those bureaucrats (and are paid out of public money). Nobody seems to be able to successfully argue against such "studies." That's because those bureaucrats "talk in platitudes" and never say anything concrete, so it's hard to answer them except to insist they be more specific, which I do. But still I can't "pin them down" on anything concrete. They're very good at obfuscating the issue, any time. So the best I seem to be able to do is make them look like the fools they are.

"Poking the Supremes in the Eye"

Posted by The New THOMA$ REPORT on Saturday, July 19, 2008 2:16:01 PM
Washington, DC just lost the power to ban guns to a Supreme Court decision that gave them a "resounding slap" and told them the Second Amendment acknowledged the PERSONAL, not the government right to bear arms for self defense. So now they're making an "emergency ordinance" that does pretty much the same thing as the original, struck down ordinance does, but this time "for emergency purposes." This is like a "stick in the eye" of the Supreme Court. What they hope will happen is that they will be able to enforce this ordinance until the Supremes "take notice," in about ten or twenty years, thus "nullifying" their ruling. “The court struck down the city’s trigger lock requirement, and ruled that it is unconstitutional to require that firearms be rendered inoperable at all times in the home.” What the hell is the use of having a firearm in your home if it is unusable? Can they ask the criminal to wait while they make it operable before he commits his crime? Boy, are politicians stupid! And they think we are, too! (CCRKBA)
