Patrick Henry Would Abolish The IRS, So Why Don't We?

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – There’s a chapter in that book, in Albert Taylor Bledsoe’s book Is Davis a Traitor? and the chapter title is “The Founding Fathers As Political Prophets.” That’s the title of the chapter. Bledsoe lays out in very clear details from the Virginia Ratifying Convention that Patrick Henry and George Mason and others actually predicted the War of 1861, and they predicted exactly what would happen with taxes and with duties and ….Continue

Internet Sales Tax - Forget Marketing, Just Get Congress To Pass A Law

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – What is this idea that we need a permission slip from the Senate and then from the Congress in order to pass this tax? As I said, follow the money. Where’s the money going? The states don’t want to do this because they know that if they do it, you’re going to revolt. That’s why we have this story in the form that it is today. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – This hit piece, and that’s what this is, on the foreign policy initiative, or the Institute for Peace that Ron Paul has launched last week is just another one of these thinly-veiled attempts to kneecap anything that does not go along with the standard company line. Check out today’s audio and transcript for the rest…….Continue

Happy Secession Day, Virginia!

Read the Virginia Secession Petition and Access Project '76 Audio below Mandeville, LA  - In the process of ratifying the U.S. Constitution, the most celebrated, lengthy and heated debate was held in the Virginia Convention which convened on 4 June, 1788 in the old State House in Richmond. Seeing that there would not be enough room to accommodate the 187 delegates and thousands of interested citizens, the convention moved to the Academy of Arts ….Continue

Constitutional Traitors In The Senate, Big Surprise

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I want to repeat, there are three instances under which the militia would fall under the control of the Congress, and then only to write rules for how they should be disciplined. The three instances are: there is a declaration of war, the country or a state has been invaded by a foreign warring force, or there has been a rebellion in one of the states and the governor or the legislature of that state has asked for help in putting it….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Now to Chuck Hagel, who had the misfortune of being the guy chosen to be the head of the Defense Department and the new Secretary of Defense. He had to announce yesterday: Military cuts are coming, guys. I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news, but they’re right around the corner. Listen to Hagel try to explain what is about to happen.

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Representative James White of Woodville is actually going through the legal, thought-provoking, and intelligent process of making a legal assertion and a principled assertion and a constitutional assertion as to why Texas is well within her rights to do this.

Second Amendment Is About Arms and Militias Not Weapons

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Why do you think the Constitution goes into such detail? Why did the Virginians spend almost a week debating the militia clause in their convention to ratify? They were terrified of the consequences of disarming the militia, meaning making the militia not an army; making them a bunch of skeet shooters. That’s not a militia. That’s an invitation to get invaded and killed. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue

What Would George Mason Say About The Pentagon?

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Since I am failing in the meager task which was my charge, I’m going to resort to an actual founding father. I know they lived in the 18th century. I know there wasn’t internet. I know there weren’t airplanes. I know there weren’t any Muslims in the world (right). I know we had no enemies. I know all these things. I do not believe their wisdom is to be dismissed so frivolously and I would ….Continue

Militias And The Second Amendment

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – When the U.S. Constitution was being debated in Philadelphia, the question of the militia and who would control it came up. It was pretty much universally agreed that the only time Congress would control the militia is if they actually had to call them into service and make them part of a continental army, make them part of the forces of The United States, not of A United State. See the difference? Th….Continue

What the Bill of Rights is Meant To Do

Contains Exclusive: Transcript Topics: , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - The Second Amendment was not directed at the states, it was directed at the Feds. The First Amendment was directed at the Feds, and the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth. If you doubt any of this, if there’s one soul out there that doubts this, please read the entire text of Amendment IX and Amendment X. These were insisted upon by Patrick Henry himself in the Virginia Assembly, just in case ….Continue

It Didn't Take 200 Years To Go This Far Off Course

Topics: , , , , , , , , , , ,

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - Well, I don’t think it took 200 years to get this far screwed. There is something to be said for someone (hint, hint) writing and producing a movie that has as its feature that Patrick Henry and George Mason were successful in defeating the ratification of the Constitution in Virginia, which would have defeated ratification in New York, and probably would have defeated ratification in toto. What would have happened? Then the three-….Continue

Jeffersons Views Perverted: Traditions Have Become More Important Than Liberty

Contains Exclusive: Audio, Transcript Topics: , , , ,

Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Audio and Transcript - I think the idea that everything has to be equal is at the root of all this. This is where Jefferson is perverted with this whole “all men are created equal” stuff. They’re not all created equal. Jefferson rued the day that he wrote that because he didn’t qualify it as the great George Mason of Virginia did. What is really provocative, and most people don’t think of it in these terms, is that it is the words libert….Continue
