The writings of white supremacist shooter James Von Brunn on Free Republic, and right-wing readers' positive reaction to his writings, is mirrored here for historical reference. Free Republic has taken the post down, trying to shove it down the memory hole.



Read the Google Cache of the "Arizona Sentinel" blog cut-and-paste hack job that right-wingers are claiming "proves" that Barack Obama applied to Occidental College as a foreigner. As you'll see with a quick read and the most minimal effort to find the faked sources referred to within, it's a hoax. Also a hoax, therefore, is the claim by right-wingers that the "Arizona Sentinel" is a newspaper website taken down by The Man because conspiracy theorists were TOO CLOSE to the truth! See here for a debunking of the fake "article."



Had it up to here with the silence of the Speaker of the House during years and years of U.S. Government torture? Then shout it to the highest clouds: Nancy Pelosi, Resign!

Ron Paul Violates Constitution Before Breakfast

This morning, presidential candidate and member of Congress Ron Paul tied his shoes, violating the Constitution.

Go ahead, tell me where in the Constitution it gives members of Congress the power to tie their shoes! It is therefore a power that devolves to the states.

I trust that Representative Paul will be more careful in the future. If he is not capable of such care, he should consider wearing slippers.

    He tied his shoes as an individual, without using federal or state tax dollars to pay someone else to do it. Therefore, he did not violate the Constitution because he did not infringe upon anyone else’s right to life, liberty, property, or pursuit of happiness. Don’t tell me his tying his shoes makes you unhappy?

  • Where in the Constitution does it say that people have the right to tie their shoes? There is no 11th Amendment in the Bill of Rights that says “People can tie their own shoes!” How dare Ron Paul! He’s no libertarian!

    Where did he tie his shoes? At home? Where did the money for his place come from? His FEDERAL paycheck??? For shame!!!!!

    He won’t lift a finger for the nation’s children to learn science, but I bet he’s filling his own breakfast bowl with cornflakes at taxpayer expense.

  • With shoelaces made in China! And where how do you think those shoes got from San Diego to Washington D.C.? It was on the Bilderberg Highway, the transnational superhighway that destroys American sovereignty by letting people drive from Mexico all the way to Canada, without ever stopping at a Cracker Barrel!

    Ron Paul is in league with the North American Union! Put on your tinfoil hats!

    Iroquois,

    Ron Paul gives his salary back and has refused to participate in the Congressional pension.

  • Yes! And does the Constitution say that it’s okay to do that? No! Nowhere in the Constitution is it authorized to give your salary back and not participate in the congressional pension!

    Ron Paul is violating the Constitution!

    the tenth amendment gives me powers not delegated to the state, how dare he strip me of my right to tie his shoes!
