Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Angelo Codevilla had written about how the elites, whether they’re Democrats or Republicans, pretty much all go to the same schools, live in or near the same cities, attend the same parties, go to the same functions. Most of these functions and events we’re describing here and talking about are not attended by people like us, people that might go to a Tea Party rally or may go to a republican ReFounding Father Society meeting or….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – If you need any more proof, as if you needed it, that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme, and that there is no trust fund, and that the trust fund was squandered and used in real time decades ago, here you go. It’s contained in the story. If the immigration bill the Gang of Eight is proposing is passed, it could provide a boost, says the story. It could provide a boost for Social Security.

Senate Passes Internet Sales Tax In Contravention Of Its Constitutional Powers

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

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Since when is it the job of United States senators to side with traditional retailers? That’s not what they did. They did not side -- the more I think about this, the more angry I become. The upshot of all of this clamor and this agitation for this sales tax is that this is an economic miracle. If you work in brick-and-mortar retail, this is the greatest thing that has ever happened, ever. You will never, ever, never find a gr….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – What do we need tanks for? I know what we need them for, but what do we need more for? So it’s a jobs program. The military thus, and the reason why the defense budget is defended so vociferously by Republicans is not for national defense; it is for corporate defense. It is to make sure that the leviathan continues to shower favored corporations that lobby for the money tens if not hundreds of billions of dollars per year. Tha….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – So in other words, we need to give these people amnesty and legalize them so if they blow up a bazaar or they blow up a marathon site, we will more easily be able to track them because we naturalized them or made them legal. That’s the justification? Really? Wow! What other excuses can we make up to make illegals legal? Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I always look for historical angles to talk about these things that we discuss here on the program. I was wondering if all the people of all of Taxachusetts were as blindly and meekly following the orders of their state and city overlords on Friday. Would that translate to the rest of the state? Massachusetts does have a western part as well. Is there any historical precedent for this? It turns out that there is. Check out toda….Continue

Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – As I have been saying, those that are being pilloried for their promise to filibuster this, in my humble, constitutional opinion, are in the correct.
