The over-reaching power of the IRS and why it needs to be GUTTED
This is one chilling video, and John Eastman nails it precisely:
Following that testimony, it was revealed that, concurrently, the IRS pisses away your money:
IRS Audit Details $4.1 Million Conference
By SIOBHAN HUGHES
WASHINGTON—The 2010 Internal Revenue Service employee conference that has drawn criticism paid $17,000 to a keynote speaker who drew pictures of the singer Bono and the physicist Albert Einstein to inspire IRS employees to free up their thought process and find creative solutions to challenges, according to a report released Tuesday.
The conference for 2,609 employees in Anaheim, Calif., cost $4.1 million. Lawmakers had recently released some details of the conference—including videos of IRS workers engaged in a “Star Trek” parody and a line dance—but the full report wasn’t publicly available until Tuesday.
Republican Darrell Issa weighs in with logic:
“The wasteful Anaheim conference is one example of a culture of excess that plagues the IRS and many federal agencies,” said Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, (R., Calif.) in a statement released Tuesday. “Taxpayer money meant to pay for a core agency mission, the hiring of more enforcement personnel, was instead spent on a lavish party. Perhaps most disturbingly, there appears to have been little or no effort by the IRS to hold those responsible for this wasteful spending accountable.”
And watch the testimony of Becky Gerritson:
Further:
Rep. Jim McDermott (D., Wash.) gave the hearing a jolt when he questioned whether the conservatives were being unreasonable by claiming that they were entitled to a tax-advantaged status on a fast-track basis for political work. “Each of your groups is highly political,” Mr. McDermott said. “You are all entrenched in some of the most controversial political issues in the country, and with your applications you were asking the American public to pay for that work,” Mr. McDermott said.
That prompted a strong reaction from Rep. Paul Ryan (R., Wis.).
“We have not heard any testimony that this is happening to groups that have the opposing views,” Mr. Ryan said, looking at Mr. McDermott. “So to suggest that these citizens are to blame for applying—I don’t understand how anyone can make that conclusion,” Mr. Ryan said.
These weren’t accidents. They were acts of overt intimidation. These acts were condoned by their administrations. The Obama Administration.
What about Organizing For Action? What about MoveOn.org?
There are rules for those supporting Obama. There are separate rules for those opposing Obama. Who knew? Who gave the orders? When did they know it?
Yes. Your loving IRS.

Islamists & Leftists chase college Republicans out of their own movie screening
As Texas Fred wrote in his post, “A warning from a former Muslim,” Islam has patience. And drive. And violence. They are the 800-pound gorilla of religions, cold, cruel, barbaric, single-minded. Read Fred’s post first.
Some people may be asking, in light of the recent declaration that Feds suggest anti-Muslim speech can be punished, why such emphasis on the negative aspects of one tiny religion when there are so many other issues of greater importance requiring focus in today’s world? And, further, won’t this get me in trouble?
The second question is easiest to answer: because I believe in my First Amendment rights. Once we lose our First, everything else means nothing. That is why it is the FIRST Amendment and why the Leftists and “Progressives” by way of the Demorats work so hard to eliminate our Second Amendment protections. Once the Second Amendment is gutted and emasculated, the rest of the Bill of Rights — with the First Amendment clearly “first to go” — can be tossed aside with abandon. Then the nation truly becomes one populated by Groundlings, Serfs and Proles. This doesn’t just work for Obama, folks; any old and staid Republican could potentially do the same thing. No one, ladies and gentlemen, gets my First Amendment.
The first question is also an easy one to answer: because Islam has the West in its gunsights. Literally and figuratively. And the so-called “good” and “moderate” Muslim keeps silent and quaking in his boots for fear of the True Islam. My phrase “Islam is as Islam does” isn’t merely some trite coinage; it’s the absolute truth. Do the reversal: substitute the word “Catholic” for all the death and carnage committed at the hands of and in the name of Islam and imagine what the state of Catholicism would be today.
People say that, after all, these kinds of thing can’t happen here and that Texas Fred and I are simply religionists and terribly over-reactive. One tiny point: people also intimate that Texas Fred and I are racists and to that I laugh out loud: the dolts and cretins making this remark are themselves ill-educated and give away their obvious poor public school days: Islam is a religion and not a race. Such goobers.
It can’t happen here, you say?
Really? Watch:
Ah, nothing like the goodness and kindness of Leftists and Islamists working in concert to eliminate the truth regarding Islam. As so clearly illustrated by Texas Fred’s guest writer.
Plus this:
You think the First Amendment isn’t already threatened? You think that Islam doesn’t already have a foothold in America?
Then you would be foolish.

Florida sheriff: “We want people to call us if the guy down the street says he hates the government”
From the PalmBeachPost:
Florida House and Senate budget leaders have awarded Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw $1 million for a new violence prevention unit aimed at preventing tragedies like those in Newtown, Conn., and Aurora, Colo., from occurring on his turf.
Bradshaw is readying a hotline and is planning public service announcements to encourage local citizens to report their neighbors, friends or family members if they fear they could harm themselves or others.
“We want people to call us if the guy down the street says he hates the government, hates the mayor and he’s gonna shoot him,” Bradshaw said. “What does it hurt to have somebody knock on a door and ask, ‘Hey, is everything OK?’ ”

In the near future: if you aren’t medically perfect, you’ll be killed
A shocking title for a post, is it not?
Because, of course, I’m writing only in terms of the most horribly-possible hyperbole, am I not?
Because, after all, following us individually like Big Brother’s Medical Official is so far out of human ken as to be unbelievable, is it not?
It is not.
It is here, it is now, and it is beginning in the UK; home — oddly enough — of the original Big Brother from the mind of George Orwell (true name: Eric Arthur Blair via the novel Nineteen Eighty Four, published in 1949).
From the UK’s DailyMailOnline:
Big brother to log your drinking habits and waist size as GPs are forced to hand over confidential records
- Data includes weight, cholesterol, BMI, family health history and pulse rate
- Doctors will be forced to reveal alcohol consumption and smoking status
- Privacy campaigners described it as ‘biggest data grab in NHS history’
- Part of new Health Service programme called Everyone Counts
- Officials insisted data will be anonymous and deleted after analysis
Question: what is ObamaKare except the NHS “writ large” for the United States? ObamaKare likewise demands a massive central database into which your health information will be dumped with 314,000,000 others.
GPs are to be forced to hand over confidential records on all their patients’ drinking habits, waist sizes and illnesses.
The files will be stored in a giant information bank that privacy campaigners say represents the ‘biggest data grab in NHS history’.
They warned the move would end patient confidentiality and hand personal information to third parties.
Officials insisted the personal information would be made anonymous and deleted after analysis.
Trust me: NOTHING is “deleted after analysis” when it involves the government or the private sector and MONEY or POWER can be derived from such information.
Because?
Information IS Power.
But Ross Anderson, professor of security engineering at Cambridge University, said: ‘Under these proposals, medical confidentiality is, in effect, dead and there is currently nobody standing in the way.’ Nick Pickles, of the privacy group Big Brother Watch, said NHS managers would now be in charge of our most confidential information.
He added: ‘It is unbelievable how little the public is being told about what is going on, while GPs are being strong-armed into handing over details about their patients and to not make a fuss.
‘Not only have the public not been told what is going on, none of us has been asked to give our permission for this to happen.’
The same is beginning to occur in the United States of America.
The land of the free; the home of the brave. The nation that decided to declare its independence from Britain.
And as I reported here on BZ, US doctors will soon be Mandated Reporters about guns in your home, what you have, how you store them, and how said storage may affect the violence visited upon your family. Which = your “overall health.”
Which is how the US government will manage to stick its camel nose into your family tent. Security. Safety. “For the children.”
Because, importantly now, in the UK:
“Patients will not be able to opt out of the system.”
Imagine that. The SYSTEM rules ALL.
I don’t believe that anyone objects if their medical records in, say, Kaiser, are digitized. And if Patient A moves from Kaiser to Blue Shield, I suspect no one objects if their digitized medical records are transferred from Kaiser to Blue Shield.
I suspect that, however, clear thinking individuals will and should object if their digitized medical records are shared with any other entity including the United States Government, for any reason whatsoever.
Because I am forever reminded:
It is none of the government’s business what I drink, what I read, where I piss, what I eat, the color of my shit, my hat size, my BMI, how I drive, what I drive, how frequently I enjoy sex with my wife, the positions we favor, the houses I own, our fetishes, if I have seven nipples or a bunion on my right foot — UNTIL I DEMAND that the US government pay for the mitigation or funding of these things.
That was private business between my medical provider and myself, having deeply paid into my various medical plans for over forty years and not been subsidized by the federal government in any way, shape or form.
These were contracts between me and my local providers and my local agencies, where my privacy held primacy. But no more.
The UK is primarily lost on any number of levels. It consists of an unprecedented number of GOWPs (Guilty Overeducated White People) whose numbers are now dwindling, losing a national secular battle with the demographics of Islam, featuring an ancient infrastructure that will be sacrificed or disregarded if fiscally or politically expedient.
The government shall rule. “Will” is permissive; “shall” is mandatory.
And, further, if the Human Genome becomes well and truly “broken,” you can rest assured that certain classes of people will become permanent underclasses the moment they are born — if they have not yet been aborted.
If for no other reason than fiscal governmental expediency.
Hence the title of my post, due to what I call the “logical extension”:
If you aren’t medically perfect in a few decades, you will be killed.
Our current secular trends indicate and mandate this.
