So steps Ron Paul.

I wouldn’t have imagined.

Mr Paul has certainly instigated some lunatic fringe concepts in his time.

That being said, the one clarion call to which he has consistently insisted is an audit upon the Federal Reserve.

And I couldn’t agree more.

However:

After years of blocking him from a leadership position, Mr.Paul’s fellow Republicans have named him chairman of the House subcommittee on domestic monetary policy, which oversees the Federal Reserve as well as the currency and the valuation of the dollar.

Perhaps the so-called “squeeky wheel” does insist upon major greasing?

He is now to lead a federal oversight committee.

Republicans had blocked Mr.Paul from leading the monetary policy panel once before, and banking executives reportedly urged them to do so again.

But Republicans on Capitol Hill increasingly recognize that Mr.Paul has a following — among his supporters from 2008 and within the Tea Party, which helped the Republicans recapture the House majority by picking up Mr.Paul’s longstanding and highly vocal opposition to the federal debt.

Conservatives have to pick up and acknowledge truth wherever and however it exists.

We must administer and utilize the tools we deign when and how we can.

And who can deny that we absolute must know where our money goes and how it is handled?

P.S.

I am now working with Mozilla Firefox and have been so for roughly the past four months. I am also alternately blogging from not only a PC but my MacBook Pro with OSX.

Perhaps this is Ancient History to some of you, but I find MF to be quite so MUCH better than Internet Exploder. I cannot recommend it higher. Clearly, I am a late comer to Firefox — but perhaps better late than never. When using MF I find my internet experience isn’t subject to the prevailing prairie winds, tidal pull, sunspots, and phases of the moon according to The GatesMeister.

P.P.S.
I have had one day off in the past two weeks — today — and I am slotted to attend mandatory AOT training then back into my regular work schedule. I’ll attempt to keep blogging as much as possible but work, as we all know, tends to interfere with the best of our Blogospheric Intentions.

Does it not?

I suspect that one of my greatest blogging flaws might be my tendency to eschew very limited-scope and highly-focused blogposts.

I submit that this is an area where, for example, Texas Fred absolutely excels, hence his great popularity. He has found a blogging formula that is sharp, focused, logical and popular: identify a specific topic or individual story, feature its source, provide the requisite links, then weigh in with salient commentary that either supports or negates the primary point.

It is, frankly, an excellent model for a blog. You may not realize it, but that’s precisely what Texas Fred does on a daily basis. That’s his model.

I admit my flaws up front: I wish I could do this. Focus like a laser beam. But the way my brain is patterned, I find myself primarily unable to strictly limit my posts in a Texas Fred kind of way. And therein I have to publicly recognize the success of TF as opposed to the “hit-and-miss” nature of my own microscopic address in the Blogosphere.

I just find it so damned difficult to narrow my focus whilst my brain literally explodes into any number of — what I consider to be — tangents from an original theme.

I guess I just can’t lock in on a limited topic. Perhaps it’s what people now call ADD. Back “then,” it was called “just being a boy.” Perhaps I am simply undisciplined.

Which brings me to now:

It’s time that I try to identify how there are so many national and global “dots to connect.”

In DC, the Demorats are like “girls gone wild.” One party Demorat said, literally, “fuck the president“; another (Rep. Jerrold Nadler of N.Y.) said “we can’t trust him.”

House Demorats completely rejected out of hand Mr Obama’s tax deal with the GOP (Whip Count here).

Further, Demorats decided to shelve — at least for a while — the DREAM act.

On the other hand, what was the final GOP count from the November midterms?

Final House Race Decided; GOP Net Gain: 63 Seats.

These are truly tumultuous times, America. . .

And they are, in my opinion, about to get bloodily violent.

P.S.
Question for my dearest readers:

Should I take a tip from Texas Fred and other bloggers who more closely focus their blogposts? Are my individual posts too wide and too unfocused — as to my current themes?

Is it time to abandon my scattershot model and more narrowly focus my posts?

Would you want to read more narrowly-focused posts?

Clear Demorat FCC Commissioner Michael Joseph Copps (04-13-1940), another ancient and withered GOWP (Guilty Overeducated White Person) indicated radio licenses could be continued only but if they “demonstrate measurable progress. If the station fails again, give the license to someone who will use it to serve the public interest.”

Copps outlined a plan for a “Public Value Test” every four years that would make the license renewal of broadcasters contingent upon meeting federal criteria such as the delivery of news, diversity, the conducting of community input meetings and local programming requirements.

If radio and television is on Mr Copps’ radar, then so must be blogs, necessarily so.

They are a means of communication, are they not?

Mr Copps, of course, envisions not only “race quotas” but in his purple-planet skies, “gender quotas” and “income quotas.”

As some have said: “Fox — meet hen-house.”

So to speak.

Mr Copps also said:

Arguments rage over the right to secretly manage and prioritize content and to favor the affluent saw it as an affront to free speech. Barton also asked whether “five commissioners can do a better job of ensuring that Americans have access to a wide diversity of content and viewpoints than Americans can themselves by expressing their preferences … in the vigorously competitive marketplace.”

Bloggers and Conservatives beware: your First Amendment existence may be on the table — once again.

And — imagine this — at the behest of Demorat/Progressive/Leftist elements.
