You sit around pondering where all this unemployment/job/multi-level budget cutting stuff being turned into more vertical dependence upon the unitary power of government is going, when you remember Supreme Court nominee Kagan DOES have a record..as a political gadfly, mouthpiece, and pontificator for hire...of insisting the USA must bend its own Constitution and laws to conform to and operate as the law of the USA, and that the majority will of foreign leaders is properly THE will of all USA government law high and local...and every Israel, every India, every freedom-seeking person of any persuasion on earth should be hammered into accepting this, with further indoctrination of their children into such acceptance by any means possible.

Crazy talk from a USA Conservative or partisan, you say? Well, here is a copy of a droning letter FROM Kagan saying all that and then some: http://www.hslda.org/docs/news/Kagan_Harvard_memo.pdf . Nota bene, Kagan cares less how brutal, oppressive, or aloof any foreign leaders' styles may be, but does think one harmonious standard of life should be applied globally without questions.

 

I'm no lying bailed-out pundit, hack, what have you...my interest for all earnest people on earth seeking responsible individualism and particpatory, equity-based participation in their own and other countries would be exactly the same as that (again!) of Victor Lazlo in the 1942 movie "Casablanca": http://www.popmodal.com/video/1195/CASABLANCA--stand-and-sing-for-freedom .

 

If this is now "icky, issue-laden" cooties nowadays, because some Taliban or Laden or Castro or MyMood Alibabajihad or Stalin or Mao or other tinhorn doesn't like talk of anything but abject personal nihilism of "the outer ring", on behalf of sane freedom lovers high and low across the globe: who cares?
