The Death of a Blog

I'm moving on to greener pastures. Visit me at  ballotandcross.com My views have changed a lot since I began this blog.  I started out as kind of a socialist.  I am now an anarcho-capitalist. My views—on war, the environment, and our responsibility for the poor, local food—have changed little.  I am proud of many of the posts on this blog.  But it's time to separate from the past and begin anew. I hope those of you who've enjoyed this blog will move forward with me. Thanks, C-L-W

Today, the Americans (or, rather, their Nato running dogs) are doing something far worse: they are using depleted uranium ammunition, as they did in Iraq and so many other places, to poison the land and the people and the unborn. The number of malformed babies and miscarriages will be horrific. Here’s what they did to the people of Falujah for daring to resist the invading and foreign contractors. Say, isn’t it the pro-life Christianists who do this and cheer it on? (Thanks to Luis Almeida)

Your tax dollars at work, paying for a TSA agent to molest little girls (click for video). Don't you feel safer?

Dismissing Ron Paul

I am no longer a Democrat because I am anti-war. I am not a Republican, because I am anti-mercantilist. There is only one free-market, anti-war candidate that I know: Ron Paul. There are a bunch of losers aiming for the GOP ticket for president. Many magazines, newspapers, and shows seem to conveniently omit Ron Paul, even though he won the 2011 CPAC poll. Author Tom Woods here defends the misrepresented Paul:
