Most of us already knew about the government raid on Gibson Guitars, but what you didn't know was that the raid was started by lumber union protectionists. No shock here, but the real story is right out of AS.

    I just compared liberalism to a hydra myself yesterday. Placing the hydra's head on a pike on the White House lawn would be wonderful, but I don't think that it would get through security as effectively as a Hank Rangar invitation.

    The radio show is well worth listening to. He said that Ed Meese talked about this 2 decades ago. The Executive Branch has grabbed Imperial powers through all these agencies. There is no check and balance. If no one is formally charged, the judicial branch cannot make it right, the legislative branch cannot make it right. "We fought a Revolution over this!"
    Side note: Gibson Guitars was raided by Homeland Security. What does this issue have to do with domestic terrorism?!
    There should be a special prosecutor. The Nuremberg Defense (I was just following orders) should not be allowed. But the Republicans have no balls.

    But remember if your haven't done anything wrong, you have nothing to fear.

    Disgraceful.
    The answer is to lop the head off the hydra and place it on a pike on the white house lawn.
    Closing all the agencies under the supervision of the executive branch (and repealing all the laws that created and empowered them) might suffice.

    “We are in terrible trouble as a nation under law,” he says. “When you have a system predicated on jurisdictional interests rather than on specific, identifiable, understandable, definable violations of law, there is a great opportunity for tyranny.”

    In the Hank Rangar Thriller Series, we illustrate these sorts of abuses.
