The Pamphleteer |
|
|
During colonial times in America, if you wanted to convince or inform people about some issue that you considered important, you went to the local printer and got some pamphlets printed. You then handed them out, read them to anybody that was interested, nailed them to the town bulletin board, or the nearest tree.
The first amendment was specifically written to protect this type of activity and the writers or "pamphleteers".

Comparative Medicine (From Dr. Eugene, our correspondent in Suffolk County.) An Israeli doctor says "Medicine in my country is so advanced that we can take a kidney out of one man, put it in another, and have him looking for work in 6 weeks." A German doctor says "That is nothing, we can take a lung out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in four weeks." A Russian doctor says "In my country, medicine is so advanced that we can take half a heart out of one person, put it in another, and have them both looking for work in two weeks." The American doctor, not to be out done, says "You guys are way behind, we took a man with no brain out of Texas, put him in the White House, and now half the country is looking for work." HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ON-LINE ARTICLES Help the Mises Institute Make The Difference The Malthusian Trap Why Business Cycle Theory Matters Property and the First Thanksgiving Böhm-Bawerk’s Critique of the Exploitation Theory of Interest Attitude Adjustment (From Colemans.) A young man named John received a parrot as a gift. The parrot had a bad
attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every word out of the bird's mouth was rude, obnoxious and laced with profanity. John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by consistently saying only polite words, playing soft music and anything else he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary. Finally, John was fed up and he yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. John shook the parrot and the parrot got angrier and even ruder. John, in desperation, threw up his hand, grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer. For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then suddenly there was total quiet. Not a peep was heard for over a minute. Fearing that he'd hurt the parrot, John quickly opened the door to the freezer. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior." John was stunned at the change in the bird's attitude. As he was about to ask the parrot what had made such a dramatic change in his behavior, the bird continued, "May I ask what the turkey did?"

The Conservative Monitor http://www.conservativebookstore.com http://www.conservativemonitor.com Contents: 1. Book Review: - "Social Problems in a Free Society", by Myles J. Kelleher 2. Articles - Unwrapping Innocence, by Frederick Mee - Stealing Property Rights in the Name of Historic Preservation, by Peyton Knight - Holiday Cheer, Dreaded J-Word is Near, by Cheryl K. Chumley - English versus Arabic and Spanish, by Alan Caruba 3. Powerhouse Profits 4. Weekly Politickle, by F.R. Duplantier ----- 1. Book of the Month: "Social Problems in a Free Society", by Myles J. Kelleher. In the United States we are generally obsessed with a concept known as freedom. As Myles Kelleher explains in his book, "Social Problems in a Free Society", there are two kinds of "freedom". There is freedom in the libertarian sense, which we might call "freedom from". This "freedom from" would include freedom from infringement upon property rights, "freedom from" violence of our fellow humans, etc. The Bill of rights in the U.S. Constitution lays out many of these freedoms. Notice that all of these freedoms are basically a limitation of outside interference on the individual. Yet there is another kind of "freedom" that has crept into the definition of the word. It is the "freedom to". The "freedom to" have affordable housing, the "freedom to" be fed, or to an education or more. The problem with these two types of freedom is that they are mutually exclusive. To provide someone with a freedom to affordable housing, the wealth used to give it must be taken from someone whether they want to give it up or not. Thus, we see that any transfer of wealth to provide a "freedom to" is an imposition on the rights of a person who has a "freedom from". We can see the "freedom from" rights are inherent in the constitution and require a passive government, while the "freedom to" rights are manufactured by the social system and require the active interference of government and coercive force. This is an interesting concept and has huge implications in American government and American society. Myles Kelleher uses this concept and many others to take a whole new approach to social problems. His book,"Social Problems in a Free Society", is packed full of ideas and analysis about modern American sociology that will leave the casual reader breathless and the assiduous student spell-bound. It makes comprehensive casual reading and would make an excellent text for any class in sociology. Conservative Libertarianism is belief system that inhabits every aspect of study and culture. Myles Kelleher shows how it can be applied profitably to the problems of modern society. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in understanding free society, what makes it go, what causes problems, and the best road to fixing them.

Aficionados of the moral debauchery into which our nation is descending snapped classic animation is no longer directed at young children but rather towards libertine post-adolescents with less control over their urges than barnyard animals.

Chumley / -- It must be getting on that time of year again - the time of holiday good cheer, concern for mankind the world wide and oh yes, of course, the standard public school practice of disdaining and prohibiting mention of the name Jesus. My fourth-grade daughter almost declined to use the name Jesus in her assigned essay about what Christmas means to her because she wanted the story to be chosen for publication in the school's newsletter. During questioning, the school denied any policy barring mention of Jesus from its publication existed, and in fact, my daughter herself later admitted no one had ever warned her explicitly that her story would not be published if it included reference to Jesus. On surface then it should seem the debate is at an end. Chalk one up to a simple misunderstanding.

WWII Flashback: 'Terrorists' Kill 1,000 Americans in Post-war Germany (Thanks to Gene, our correspondent in Washington Heights.) The president declared victory over a year ago, but terrorists continue to pick off U.S. troops and even American civilians at the rate of 3 per day. The maniacal dictator may be long gone, but his hard core followers continue to wreak havoc across the land, with the interim government seemingly powerless to stop the mayhem.Back home, the press takes an increasingly pessimistic tone, with some of the most prominent news organs pronouncing the U.S.'s postwar strategy an abject failure. Iraq 2004? Not exactly. Try Germany, 1946 in the first year after WWII. To hear the liberals tell the story, once the allies conquered the Nazis, they stayed conquered - with American forces treated like the liberators they were. But according to Fox News Channel war historian Oliver North, not every conquered German welcomed the American occupation with open arms. On Monday North detailed the little-known truth about the post-World . . . To read the rest of this article Click Here. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ON-LINE ARTICLES America's Unsustainable Boom Why People Trade The Continuing Relevance of Menger How to avoid the flu... (Helpful ? advice from Dr. Eugene in Suffolk County.) Eat right! Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.
Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin c. Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system. Walk for at least hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc. Wash your hands often. If you can't wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial stuff around. Get lots of fresh air. Open windows whenever possible. Get plenty of rest. Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can. OR .. You can take the doctors office approach. Think about it, when you go for a shot, what do they do first? Clean your arm with alcohol. Why? Because alcohol kills germs. So. I walk to the liquor store (exercise), I put lime in my Corona (fruit), celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies), drink on the bar patio (fresh air), get drunk, tell jokes, and laugh (eliminate stress) and then pass out (rest). The way I see it, if you keep your alcohol levels up flu germs can't get you!!!! Sunday, December 05, 2004
Guess Which Party Most (if not all) of These Folks Usually Vote For... (From John, our correspondent in Narrowsburg.) Number One From a friend: I am a medical student currently doing a rotation in toxicology at the poison control center. Today, this woman called in very upset because she caught her little daughter eating ants. I quickly reassured her that the ants are not harmful and there would be no need to bring her daughter into the hospital. She calmed down and at the end of the conversation happened to mention that she gave her daughter some ant poison to eat in order to kill the ants. I told her that she better bring her daughter into the emergency room right away. ********************** Number Two Early this year, some Boeing employees on the airfield decided to steal a life raft from one of the 747s. They were successful in getting it out of the plane and home. Shortly after they took it for a float on the river, they noticed a Coast Guard helicopter coming towards them. It turned out that the chopper was homing in on the emergency locater beacon that activated when the raft was inflated. They are no longer employed at Boeing. ************************* Number Three A true story out of San Francisco: A man, wanting to rob a downtown Bank of America, walked into the branch and wrote "this is a stickup. Put all your muny in this bag." While standing in line, waiting to give his note to the teller, he began to worry that someone had seen him write the note and might call the police before he reached the teller's window. So he left the Bank of America and crossed the street to Wells Fargo. After waiting a few minutes in line, he handed his note to the Wells Fargo teller. She read it and, surmising from his spelling errors that he wasn't the brightest light in the harbor, told him that she could not accept his stickup note because it was written on a Bank of America deposit slip and that he would either have to fill out a Wells Fargo deposit slip or go back to Bank of America. Looking somewhat defeated, the man said, "OK" and left. He was arrested a few minutes later, as he was waiting in line back at Bank of America. ************************** Number Four A motorist was unknowingly caught in an automated speed trap that measured his speed using radar and photographed his car. He later received in the mail a ticket for $40 and a photo of his car. Instead of payment, he sent the police department a photograph of $40. Several days later, he received a letter from the police that contained another picture, this time of handcuffs. He immediately mailed in his $40. ***************************** Number Five A guy walked into a little corner store with a shotgun and demanded all of the cash from the cash drawer. After the cashier put the cash in bag, the robber saw a bottle of Scotch that he wanted behind the counter on the shelf. He told the cashier to put it in the bag as well, but the cashier refused and said, "Because I don't believe you are over 21." The robber said he was, but the clerk still refused to give it to him because he didn't believe him. At this point, the robber took his driver's license out of his wallet and gave it to the clerk. The clerk looked it over and agreed that the man was in fact over 21 and he put the Scotch in the bag. The robber then ran from the store with his loot. The cashier promptly called the police and gave the name and address of the robber that he got off the license. They arrested the robber two hours later. ************************ Number Six A pair of Michigan robbers entered a record shop nervously waving revolvers. The first one shouted, "Nobody move!" When his partner moved, the startled first bandit shot him. This guy doesn't need a sign, he probably figured it out himself. **************************** Number Seven Arkansas: Seems this guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. It seems the liquor store window was made of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape. Oh, that smarts. ****************** Number Eight Ann Arbor: The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan at 12:50 A. M.. flashed a gun and demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldn't open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion rings, the clerk said they weren't available for breakfast. The man, frustrated, walked away. ***************** Please note that all of the above people are allowed to vote ...and guess which party most (if not all) usually vote for.

IF YOU ARE, YOU CAN WIN $100,000 I just signed up for the VOTE or NOT Challenge. The challenge is to raise awareness and get as many of our friends and family to participate in the Election. The 2000 Election was decided by about 500 votes, so all our votes matter!! This year's election may be just as close. It's cool because if you sign up for the challenge, you also get entered into a sweepstakes to win $100,000, and if you refer the winner to the challenge (like I'm doing right now), you get $100,000 too. In other words, if you join and win, we BOTH get $100,000. (Yes this is for real!) They're doing this to encourage us to spread the word fast, because the voter registration deadline is coming up soon. Please sign up. It takes less than a minute to do, so sign up now for the challenge through my referral link: http://pm31z8b.VOTEorNOT.org If you still need to register to vote, you can do it online at http://VOTEorNOT.org/register.php Thanks!
