2nd Amendment Fight Isn't The End, It's The Wake-Up Call To Rethinking The Union
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – When the Constitution was ratified, the guy who actually wrote the “We the people” script and actually wrote the four original parchment paper pages that hold the original text of the original Constitution, Gouverneur Morris, he went to his grave convinced that his grandchildren would not live in an American Union consecrated under a Constitution. It is nothing short of an absolute miracle or maybe a curse, depending on whose si….Continue
Rep. Tom Cotton Wants An American War With Syria
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Why are members of the war party out there stumping for war in Syria? This is just perplexing and it’s so damn frustrating. I have this member of Congress, Tom Cotton, who is on Meet the Half-Court Press yesterday. “The United States should arm opposition fighters in Syria and create a no-fly zone over the war-torn nation,” Representative Tom Cotton (R-AR) said on NBC’s Meet the Press. What interest do the people of Arkan….Continue
Sales Taxes Go Way Back...And They're Always A Bad Idea
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – “Sales Tax: History of a Dumb Idea” by Mason Gaffney, this is part of my post. I found this wonderful essay written by Mr. Gaffney in Insights Magazine back in 2005 about sales taxes. He writes about the history of the sales tax. It goes way, way back, farther than you can ever imagine. Check out today’s audio and transcript for the rest…….Continue

Interview With Kevin Gutzman On George Washington
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I mentioned earlier that today is the anniversary of George Washington’s first inauguration in New York City. It was a very festive occasion. According to some that witnessed the event, it was also an event that was met with an awful lot of trepidation and dis-certitude. People didn’t know what was going to become of this new government they created. Here to fill us in a little bit about the greatness is Professor Dr. Kevin G….Continue
The Daily Caller Calls Ron Paul's Peace Institute Board Members "Radicals"
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
Restoring The Constitution Can't Happen With The Amoral, Atheistic Nitwittery
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I have told you on about a billion and a half occasions, all you can really do is control yourself and what is in your community, or attempt to control what’s in your community, and more specifically in your own local sphere. That means your family, close family, immediate friends and relatives. You can’t possibly hope to effect and cause worldwide change because you desire it and because you think that Jefferson and Henry and ….Continue

Intervention Is Arrogant And Unconstitutional Whether Foreign Or Domestic
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – For years on this show, I’ve been leading the charge in getting people to rethink our bellicose, out-of-control, unconstitutional, ahistorical foreign policy. We need to act more like that shining city on the hill that we always claim that we are, start leaving people alone, start being the actual beacon of freedom and liberty in the world by not dictating to it what we want it to do, and then trying to enforce it. Check out toda….Continue
Don't Be Surprised When Politicians Act Like...Politicians
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – This is what you get when you don’t study history and when we think we’re just us and there was no history that came before us because we’re so arrogant and conceited. You do know that it was members of the Roman Senate, senators, that killed Julius Caesar, or at least assisted in it. You do know that a politician, a vice president and a governor of New York by the name of Aaron Burr did, as a politician, shoot Alexander Hami….Continue
President Jefferson's First Days In Office
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – I was asking the question as to whether or not Patrick Henry was correct when he predicted that the office of President is to become a great and powerful king and he is to be supported in extravagant magnificence. What did Jefferson, when he succeeded John Adams to the office of the President, say to those he was corresponding with about what he was about to do? There are a couple of instances we have ….Continue

Kansas Joins The Nullification Fight Over Gun Laws
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – Yesterday we talked to my buddy Mark Kreslins about the attempt to nullify Obamacare in the State of Oklahoma and that it stalled in the Oklahoma Senate because of the protestations of one historically ignorant senator, a gentlemen by the name of Clark Jolley. That’s up for debate as to what’s going to happen with that. There is another effort in the State of Kansas that is making its way to the desk of Governor Brownback. Che….Continue
The Student Loan Bubble Is Not What Jefferson Had In Mind
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – The largest bubble right now, the bubble that is about to burst and is bursting right now is the student loan bubble. There are almost $1 trillion worth of outstanding student loans right now. All that money was guaranteed by you and me, Mr. and Mrs. Taxpayer, and was transferred into where? It came from the federal government and transferred into the coffers of the same universities we’re talking about. Check out today’s tra….Continue
What a Constitution Can and Can't Do
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Video and Audio - There's an article at The Imaginative Conservative by Bruce Frohnen entitled "What the Constitution Can, and Can't, Do". The purpose of a Constitution is not to bequeath rights to people or establish some social order protected by government. We do have a Bill of Rights that says that people that reside within the states reserve the right to regulate a militia and establish their own church... which wo….Continue

Marco Rubio And His Neocon Buddies Need To Go Back And Study History
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – “The idea is America and it still works,” what idea? A proper noun is not an idea. Folks, this is where these American exceptionalists should lose the intellectual thinker, the critical thinker, the person that actually reads, the person that actually contemplates, the person that actually considers, the person who is actually humble, the person who actually believes that history is an ongoing process and the history that is pa….Continue
More Money Does Not Equate To Better Education
Mandeville, LA – Exclusive Transcript – There’s something to be said about parenting, believe it or not. James Madison was a child prodigy, that may be true, but in his formative years he was homeschooled. He was taught at home. Thomas Jefferson was a childhood prodigy, I would wager, and in his formative years he was homeschooled. Check out today’s transcript for the rest…….Continue
Kevin Gutzman - A Comparison of Presidents on Presidents' Day
Mandeville, LA - Exclusive Transcript - You said Tyler is your favorite president. He’s another one of these guys that if you ask Joseph Ellis or the woman that wrote the book that ultimately became the movie Lincoln, one of these presidential historians, Tyler will probably rank somewhere between 38 and 43, yet you and McClanahan ranked him up there as number one and two. Why? Check out today's transcript for the rest...….Continue
