'Police were reviewing video from surveillance cameras in an
attempt to identify who trampled to death a Wal-Mart worker after a crowd of post-Thanksgiving shoppers burst through the
doors at a suburban store and knocked him down...Other workers were trampled as they tried to rescue the man, and customers
stepped over him and became irate when officials said the store was closing because of the death, police and witnesses said.
At least four other people, including a woman who was eight months pregnant, were taken to hospitals for observation or minor
injuries. The store in Valley Stream on Long Island closed for several hours before reopening.'
I'm sure
many of us have already heard about this, but this simply cannot go unmentioned. Look at what materialism and consumerism
do to a people - they enslave and destroy them. As long as such brainwashed slaves have their worthless, over-manufactured
products, they're pacified enough to allow tyranny to reign. At the same time, however, they'll trample
to death anyone who gets in their way of 'low, low prices.' So what's your choice: the traditional Southron
worldview and way of life OR materialism, consumerism, tyranny, and murder?
'The border between El Paso (population: 600,000) and Juárez
(population: 1.5 million) is the most menacing spot along America's southern underbelly. On one side is the second-safest
city of its size in the United States (after Honolulu), with only 15 murders so far in 2008. On the other is a slaughterhouse
ruled by drug lords where the death toll this year is more than 1,300 and counting. "I don't think the average American
has any idea of what's going on immediately south of our border," says Kevin Kozak, acting special agent in charge
of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement's office of investigations in El Paso. "It's almost beyond belief."
Juárez looks a lot like a failed state, with no government entity capable of imposing order and a profusion of powerful
organizations that kill and plunder at will. It's as if the United States faced another lawless Waziristan-except this
one happens to be right at the nation's doorstep.'
SC Governor Sanford points towards Conservative Values
'Our party took nothing short of a shellacking nationally. Some
on the left will say our electoral losses are a repudiation of our principles of lower taxes, smaller government and individual
liberty. But Election Day was not a rejection of those principles — in fact, cutting taxes and spending were important
tenets of Barack Obama’s campaign....'
Free Lakota Bank - sound money alternative to the dying dollar
This is the way forward! Invest in sound money and aid our allies
and friends in the Lakota independence movement. The pro-South movement could learn much from our friends out West.
Planned Parenthood of Indiana to Offer 'Holiday Gift Certificates'
'At the Planned Parenthood of Indiana, 'tis the season of
giving health care and contraception. But it's a sentiment that opponents of abortion and artificial birth control say
denigrates the holiday season. The network of 35 clinics across the state announced it is offering holiday vouchers for basic
health-care services "or the recipient's choice of birth control method."..."The tragedy is that almost
6,000 fewer children will be celebrating a first Christmas this year because they were aborted in Planned Parenthood's
Indiana clinics," said Mike Fichter, president and CEO of Indiana Right to Life.'
To state the obvious, the
murder of the unborn and this 'program' are evil, despicable, and utterly disgusting on every level! While
we also hope that citizens everywhere will bring an end to abortion in their respective communities, as Southrons, let us
rid ourselves of this garbage and the government that approves and funds it!
'Dorchester County will keep in place for now its program to
penalize businesses that hire illegal immigrants. A proposal to quit enforcing the county's Lawful Employment Ordinance
was up for final approval last week. The logic behind the move was that the county no longer needed to worry about auditing
businesses for illegal immigrants because the state is taking over the job...The problem is that the state won't start
checking businesses for compliance until at least July, and it's not even clear how much effort the state can put into
it then, council was reminded before the vote last week.'
I would submit that this is a very wise decision
on the part of Dorchester County. While the Palmetto State has been one of the leading States in realising that the
feds have no intention whatsoever in cracking down on the invasion and in actually attempting to address the problem, one
can never tell what the future may hold for the recent State law. In all of the sovereign States of the Southland,
there exist certain elements ('newcomers' from the North and beyond and, of course, scalawags) who attack the
will of the people and any action in accordance with their will. In far too many of our States, they have outright hijacked
our State governments as well. Besides, strong, local, Southron communities are both practical and the key to our
survival.
I've got my First National and after I put the flag pole bracket back up (it was taken down to side
the house), I will be flying that from now on.
Perhaps we should begin a campaign to reinvigorate the battle flag
by showing that it still stands for all those things its detractors say about it:
1. The battle flag stands for
hatred - YES! The battle flag stands for hatred of tyranny.
2. The battle flag stands for rebellion - YES! The
battle flag stands for rebellion against a tyrannous government at all levels as is the right of free men at all times and
in all places.
3. The battle flag stands for prejudice - YES! The battle flag stands for prejudice against injustice,
dishonor, corruption and cowardice!
4. The battle flag stands for treason - NO! The battle flag stands for the
nation's Founding Principles which have been treasonously betrayed by today's Empire!
5. The battle flag
stands for racism - NO! The battle flag stands for the freedom of the individual regardless of race or nationality or religion
in the face of government favoritism and reverse-discrimination.
6. The battle flag stands for white supremacy
- NO! But the battle flag does stand for the right of white Americans to defend and promote their race in the same way that
every other racial group in the nation does.
7. The battle flag stands for unequal justice under the law
- NO! The battle flag demands equal justice under the law - but for whites as well as other racial and ethnic groups.
Yes, it's time that we "update" the battle flag from the needs of the past to the needs of the present.
At least that is what I believe.
Dumping the Federal rag for the Confederate flag in protest against Obama
'Barack Obama’s presidential victory upset James and Linda
Vandiver. So, on election night, the couple — owners of the historic Faubus Motel in downtown Huntsville — walked
outside, lowered Old Glory and raised the Confederate battle flag in its place.'
Feds Meddling in India, Further Alienating Pakistan
'The US government convened counter-terrorism and intelligence
officials and offered help to Indian authorities as President George W. Bush and President-elect Barack Obama condemned Wednesday's
terrorist attacks in Mumbai..."The US government continues to monitor the situation, including the safety and security
of our citizens, and stands ready to assist and support the Indian government," she [White House press secretary Dana
Perino] added.'
As we at SLMNews have noted, the federal government has already infuriated Pakistan by conducting
numerous raids within its territory. Considering that individuals from Pakistan are believed to have carried out
the recent attacks in Mumbai, India, how will the US government backing India be perceived by Pakistan? Let us
not forget the tension, distrust, and past wars between India and Pakistan. Not only is it not the place of
the federal government to get involved in this mess, but it would be most unwise to do so - no matter how 'slightly.'
As history teaches us, it does not have to take much to destabilise such a situation, or in this case, to destabilise
it even further.
'A federal undercover agent investigating an Ecuadorean-Chinese
smuggling ring accepted cash kickbacks and other gifts from a paid U.S. government informant involved in the probe of the
illegal migrant network, according to an indictment unsealed Monday. Veteran Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Pedro
Cintron, 52, is charged with taking $8,300 -- along with a gold bracelet and cellphones worth about $2,000 -- from the unidentified
informant who worked with him in 2004 and 2005. Cintron, who lives in Weston, also accepted $12,000 from a Chinese smuggler
based in Ecuador as a down payment for bringing illegal migrants into the United States in late 2005, according to the indictment.
In addition to accepting illegal gratuities, Cintron is charged with theft, disclosing the name of a confidential informant
and making false statements to authorities in the 14-count indictment.'
'Are there lessons for President-elect Obama? Perhaps there
are several. First, in the New Deal's industrial recovery programs, a provision for loans to businesses disappeared. As
a result there was no mechanism for creating extra jobs in the private sector. Perhaps Obama should preserve jobs in the economy
by bailing out the auto industry. Second, infrastructure investment works, as the New Deal's public works programs
showed in highways, education, cheap electrical power and flood control. Third, the first 100 days can be a window of opportunity
to pass reforms that will not be possible later on, but complex structural changes -- like FDR's introduction of social
security -- may have to wait. For Obama, health care reform may be one of those issues that has to wait. And finally, responding
to an economic crisis requires the ability to improvise, to work across the aisle and to take measures that might at first
be at odds with your original plans.'
It is quite amazing that someone could get economics and history so wrong
and get paid for spreading such idiocy! Government manipulation of the economy was what caused the crash of 1929 - not the
Free Market. And the two Federal administrations (both GOP and Democrat) which tried to deal with the problem of the crash
caused a Great Depression that lasted more than a decade. Today, the Feds are doing their best to repeat the disastrous mistakes
FDR made in the 1930's - and Obama is being encouraged to drag us through all that again with massive spending, price
controls, nationalisation of industries, rampant inflation and other tyrannical methods which failing regimes normally try
in desperate attempts to hang on. But governments can not create wealth, jobs or prosperity - only free people acting without
oppression can do that. If ever a dying regime deserved to be put out of its misery it is this Empire.
'Federal agents rounded up 60 illegal immigrants across the
state [Florida] this week who will soon be deported and another 11 people who also will end up being deported. The U.S. Bureau
of Immigration and Customs Enforcement conducted a five-day operation arresting 60 immigration fugitives who fled after receiving
final orders of deportation from federal judges, according to the bureau. Five were from Palm Beach County, with the rest
found in Broward and Miami-Dade counties, as well as in the Tampa and Orlando areas. While serving warrants on the fugitives,
agents also located another 11 illegal immigrants who were arrested.'
Once again, we see our handlers in Washington paying us a tiny bit of lip service, hoping that we'll forget about that
those wide-open borders and the millions upon millions of illegal aliens...oh yes, and aside from encouraging this
problem, the fact that they're doing absolutely nothing about it. The feds caught only 71 illegals in all of South
Florida? Calling that a drop in the bucket would be giving them too much credit!
Pakistan Implores UK to Aid in Bringing an End to US Attacks
'Pakistan on Wednesday (November 26) asked Britain to help stop
the US missile strikes on its restive tribal areas and warned that the drone attacks, if continued, would bring irreparable
harm to the ongoing war against terrorism...During his meeting with Miliband, foreign minister Qureshi conveyed growing concern
of Pakistani government as well as of the public over attacks from across the border into Pakistan's territory, according
to officials privy to the talks...He said that the Pakistani leadership asked for Britain help in bringing halt to the drone
attacks that, they believed, were harming the war on terror and also adding to the prevailing anti-US sentiments in Pakistan.'
The government of Pakistan is now forced to ask the British government to help in bringing an end to US raids
into its territory, as the federal government has ignored its very clear and repeated requests to cease such activities.
Aside from the fact that this is a violation of Pakistan's sovereignty, the feds don't seem to mind the fact
that they are infuriating yet another country, only further destabilising the region and the world.
'Roanoke-based Valley Financial Corporation (Nasdaq Capital Market-VYFC),
parent of Valley Bank, announced today that the U.S. Treasury Department has given preliminary approval of its $16.0 million
investment in the company and of Valley's participation in the Capital Purchase Program. The U.S. Treasury introduced the Capital Purchase Program on October 14, 2008, under which
the Treasury will make up to $250 billion in equity capital available to qualifying institutions.'
If I sound
like a broken record regarding federal 'intervention' in the economy, that is merely because the system itself is irreparably
broken. Of course, the idea that socialist policies instituted by the federal government are 'coming to a bank near
you' is a joke, as they have long been in place on virtually all levels. However, with the feds going into 'hyperdrive,'
hemorrhaging money even more so than usual, I would submit that
many folks are beginning to realise just how widespread this corrupt nonsense has been over the years...and just how better
off the Southron people would be without it.
'The US government has bailed out financial services giant Citigroup
by agreeing to guarantee approximately $306 billion in risky assets and $20 billion in cash infusion in addition to the $25
billion that was earlier provided by the US Treasury under the Troubled Asset Relief Program. Citigroup (Citi) will issue
an incremental $7 billion in preferred stock to the US Treasury and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as payment
for a government guarantee on $306 billion of securities, loans, and commitments backed by residential and commercial real
estate and other assets.'
One of the Many Failures of a 'Globalised Economy'
'U.S. health officials have uncovered trace amounts of the chemical
melamine in one sample of infant formula sold in the United States, a Food and Drug Administration spokeswoman said on Tuesday...Melamine-tainted
formula was found earlier this year in China, where thousands of children fell ill and several died.'
For me,
having personally attended the League of the South national conference in Chattanooga almost a month ago, I find this article
interesting, considering this is the exact scenario Mike Tuggle discussed in his speech. It's important for Southrons
to realise that the federal government's obsession with globalisation does not only fail to benefit us - it exploits us.
You see, if a country concerns itself so much with a 'globalised economy,' the benefits (how small they
may be, and how few benefit) come at the cost of the people's security, health, and prosperity. An
independent South, with self-sufficient, revitalised Southron communities, will be able to provide for itself.
We will not be dependent upon the rest of the world for our necessities, nor will Southron children be harmed when
a corrupt company in China decides to save a penny or two by lacing its formula with a hazardous chemical.
'The Federal Reserve is to inject another $800bn (£526.8bn)
into the US economy in a further effort to stabilise the financial system...About $600bn will be used to buy up mortgage-backed
securities while $200bn is being targeted at unfreezing the consumer credit market.'
Russian analyst predicts decline and breakup of USA
A leading Russian political analyst has said the economic turmoil
in the United States has confirmed his long-held view that the country is heading for collapse, and will divide into separate
parts. Professor Igor Panarin said in an interview with the respected daily IZVESTIA published on Monday: "The dollar
is not secured by anything. The country's foreign debt has grown like an avalanche....'
'Barack Obama told Afghanistan's leader that he will dedicate
more U.S. aid and military power to this region's fight against extremists groups once he takes office, the Afghan presidential
office said Sunday..."The region" is commonly used by Afghan officials to refer to neighboring Pakistan, where Karzai
and Bush administration officials have longed complained that Taliban and al-Qaida militants have bases to support their attacks
in Afghanistan.'
That's right, y'all, not only will Obama continue these unnecessary foreign wars,
but he will be expanding military 'intervention' abroad! Instead of 'change we can believe in,' Obama's
campaign slogan should have read 'business as usual.'
'The government was weighing a plan on Sunday to rescue Citigroup
Inc., whose stock has been hammered on worries about its financial health. The Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve
have been in discussions over the weekend to devise a strategy to stabilize the company, according to people familiar with
the talks. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the discussions were ongoing...The company has already received a
$25 billion from the Treasury Department's $700 billion financial bailout program. In return for the cash infusion, the
government gets a partial ownership stake.'
'Barack Obama's personnel picks for his White House and
cabinet are prompting political foes to claim he has dumped his promise of change for tired Washington insiders and Clinton-era
retreads..."Apparently, Washington outsiders need not apply in the Obama Administration," said Republican National
Committee spokesman Alex Conant. "Barack Obama's cabinet is starting to resemble a Clinton reunion. His appointments
so far have been a disappointment for Americans hoping to see some fresh faces in Washington."'
'Fresh
faces in Washington' is not the answer to the monumental burdens our rulers have placed upon us. After
all, Obama is referred to as a so-called 'fresh face' or 'outsider,' yet he is the individual
choosing these cabinet members! Unfortunately, so many individuals are misled by this notion that 'all
we need to do' is 'take back' the Republican party (the party of Lincoln, mind you), elect a Republican
president and Congress, and appoint Republican judges. Folks, to quote George Wallace, there's not a dime's
worth of difference between the Republicans and the Democrats; and as the Bush administrations, the Clinton administration,
the soon-to-be Obama administration, and virtually every single administration for so long demonstrate, we cannot 'ask'
the target of reform to reform itself. Regardless of who is 'in charge,' the system is locked in this
route to even further insanity. As Southrons, our only hope for survival, liberty, and prosperity is the assertion
of our rights - and independence.
'Pastor John Weaver is a native of Georgia, and a graduate from
Bob Jones University where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theology and attended graduate school. He has been in the
Christian ministry over 40 years. During that time, he has pastored, and helped plant several churches and Christian schools
around the country.'
Rallies against the criminal Federal Reserve across the Empire!
Many people - especially the producing members of society, those
not living on government handouts forcibly taken from the producers - are sick and tired of government theft
(taxation and the printing of worthless paper in order to bailout favoured businesses). The backlash against the
continuous massive robbery is likely only beginning. Their prosperity and futures taken from them, the people
are more than justified in their wrath against this criminality.
'More than 500 Tibetan exiles have gathered in Dharamsala, the headquarters of the Tibetan government-in-exile in northern
India, to weigh options in their struggle for political rights in Tibet.... Many younger Tibetans believe the "Middle
Way" is a dead end, and want a more radical, forceful and confrontational approach, including a renewed call for independence
and stepped up protests.'
Erasing our history: Confederate Park renamed in Louisville
'For 113 years, the Confederate Monument has towered over the
edge of the University of Louisville's Belknap Campus -- a controversial symbol of Louisville's heritage.... The Confederate
Monument was erected in 1895 by the Women's Confederate Monument Association as, an inscription says, "a tribute
to the rank and file of the armies of the South and to our Confederate dead."'
It was not enough to invade
and defeat Dixie, forcing her back into a union she did not want to participate in - now all her historic and precious symbols
must be removed. History must be rewritten. Southron children must be instilled with the proper amount of guilt and self-loathing
by our rulers. And the memory of our culture and people must ultimately be erased forever. What a grand 'country'
this is!
Icelandic financial meltdown leads to violent protests
'Protesters in Iceland's capital Reykjavik have clashed with police during a demonstration over the handling of the
financial crisis.... Iceland faces a sharply contracting economy over the financial collapse.... The banking system collapsed
in October and the currency, the krona, has lost half its value in the past year....'
'The statue has been at the location for years and honors a
former newspaper publisher and U.S. senator who died 100 years ago. But opponents said the statue of Edward Carmack needs
to be removed since the man was a devout racist.'
To complete the destruction of our unique culture in the
South, why not just take down all our flags, statues and other symbols and put up giant hammer and sickles with the Federal
rag flying above? Sounds like a Federal paradise to me!
'The Geithner pick should be cheered on Wall Street. A confidant
of Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, Geithner has been at the center of the government’s fast-evolving response to the
financial crisis, chairing meetings at his New York office.'
Well, one socialist counterfeiter is to replace
another. This indicates that the debasement of the Federal Reserve note is sure to continue - full steam ahead towards
another depression.
'US economic, military and political dominance is likely to decline over the next two decades, according to a new US intelligence
report on global trends.... It also says the dollar may no longer be the world's major currency, and food and water shortages
will fuel conflict.'
Having destroyed much of America's prosperity (along with the free market and
liberty) and exported imperialism around the globe, the Feds have certainly earned the public's wrath. A dying empire
deserves only to be quickly put out of its misery so that the occupied constituent peoples may freely choose their own futures.
'European and Asian markets have fallen sharply on fears that
the world economy will enter a protracted downturn. London's FTSE 100 index was down 1.7% around midday, with mining shares
hardest hit. French and German markets also lost ground.'
'Former Republican presidential
candidate Mitt Romney, the son of a former auto executive with deep ties to Detroit, told CNN Wednesday the U.S. government
should not bailout the country's big three automakers.'
Romney gets an issue right - even a blind squirrel
finds a nut once in a while, right?
'A grand jury in south Texas indicted Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on separate
charges related to alleged prisoner abuse in federal detention centers, Willacy County District Attorney Juan Angel Guerra
told CNN Tuesday.'
Maybe Cheney should be held without trial in a secret Federal military prison over-seas
and experience a little of the water-boarding torture he argued so passionately for, huh? Sounds like justice to me!
More Contaminated Food from Giant, Globalist Companies
'The Nestle Prepared Foods Company in Springville, Utah is recalling
nearly 880-thousand pounds of Lean Cuisine frozen chicken meals that could contain "foreign materials." The U.S.
Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service announced the recall Monday.'
I don't know
about y'all, but Southron self-sufficiency - part of that being producing our own sound food supply - sounds
better and better with every passing day.
'The Houston Chronicle reported Sunday that records shows Immigration
and Customs Enforcement officials didn't file the necessary paperwork to detain about 75 percent of the more than 3,500
inmates who told jailers during the booking process that they were in the U.S. illegally. The newspaper said most of the released
inmates were in jail for minor offenses while hundreds were behind bars for such crimes as rape, molestation and drug dealing.
Kenneth Landgrebe, ICE field office director for detention and removal in Houston, said local officials are doing the best
they can.'
Remember, these figures just come from the Houston area. Needless to say, the Southron
people deserve and can do much better than the 'best' of what the feds 'offer.'
'Despite promises from Congressional leaders that there would
be both, there is absolutely no transparency or congressional oversight on where the first $290 billion has gone. Senator
Inhofe suggests Paulson “may have given the money to his friends.”'
The Maryland Division, United
Daughters of the Confederacy and the Col. Harry W. Gilmor Camp #1388, Sons of Confederate Veterans sponsor an annual General
Lee and General Jackson Birthday Ceremony each year in January on the Saturday nearest to the birthdays of Generals Robert
E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson. Over the years, the ceremony has included participants from numerous hereditary, historical,
military and patriotic organizations including the: Baltimore Civil War Roundtable, the Virginia Military Institute Alumni
, the Virginians of Maryland, the Sons of Union Veterans, the Friends of President Street Station, the Army of Northern Virginia,
Confederate Military Forces and a number of independent Confederate and Federal reenactment units.
Every year since 1988, the
Johns Hopkins University has rented the Clipper Room in Shriver Hall, or on several occasions another facility, to the Son
of Confederate Veterans to hold our post ceremony social gathering. However this year is different. The John Hopkins University
has refused to rent the Clipper Room, or any other facility, to our organization. The sole reason given, per a Johns Hopkins
representative, was that we are a "Confederate" organization. Make no mistake about it, we were not denied because
the facility was unavailable, or for any other legitimate reason, we were denied because of who we are. In addition, the Hopkins
representative stated that this ruling came directly from the President of the John Hopkins University, Mr. William Brody.
The Colonel Harry
W. Gilmor Camp has had an excellent on-going relationship with the Johns Hopkins, Office of Scheduling for over 20 years.
There has been absolutely no problem over this long period of time. We have always been good citizens toward Hopkins. We have
paid our rent on time, we have always left the facility neat and clean, and there has never been any disturbance of any kind.
A letter was written on September 22, 2008 outlining our long history with the University and appealing this unwarranted decision.
By letter of October 14, 2008 from President Brody's Office, we were again denied.
Because of this unfortunate situation, I must advise
the SCV and UDC membership and the public at large that, should you decide to join us for the January 17, 2009 ceremony, you
must understand that there will be no post event refreshments; and more importantly, no rest room facilities available before
or after the ceremony. In addition, the ceremony may be substantially shorter than in previous years.
We are very sorry
to report this to you, but feel that we must be candid with all that have supported us over the years. I can assure you that
regardless of the number of participants and people attending and regardless of this unjust action by Hopkins against our
Confederate Heritage, the General Lee and General Jackson Birthday Ceremony will be held on Saturday, January 17, 2009 at
11:00 a.m. at the Lee and Jackson double equestrian monument in Wymn Park.

your thoughts on this decision, his address is:

Cult of the Tyrant Lincoln Finds Another 'Relic' to 'Worship'
'A Texas museum hopes a document found in its archives turns
out to be an authentic government copy of Abraham Lincoln's eloquent letter consoling a mother thought to have lost five
sons in the Civil War. The famed Bixby Letter, which the Dallas Historical Society is getting appraised as it prays for a
potential windfall, has a fascinating history. The original has never been found. Historians debate whether Lincoln wrote
it. Its recipient, Lydia Bixby, was no fan of the president. And not all her sons died in the war. The letter, written with
"the best of intentions" 144 years ago next week, is "considered one of the finest pieces of American presidential
prose," said Alan Olson, curator for the Dallas group. "It's still a great piece of writing, regardless
of the truth in the back story.'
Though this individual is referring to whether or not the tyrant
personally wrote this letter and whether or not the document in question is even the original, I find the phrase 'regardless
of the truth' to be rather fitting. After all, it is 'regardless of the truth' that so many foolishly worship
Lincoln as if he were God Himself. They disregard the truth that he chose to persecute, invade, and conquer Dixie.
Lincoln was, in fact, the reason for the war that killed hundreds of thousands of Southron soldiers and civilians.
It is almost unfathomable for even a Northerner with any sense of right and wrong to consider Lincoln anything but
a tyrant, considering how he suppressed 'his' own people and used 'his' yankee soldiers as little more than
cannon fodder in the invasion of our Southron homeland. It's no wonder so many of the so-called 'leaders'
of our time refer to and praise Lincoln; after all, they are committing the very same immoral, unconstitutional, and foolish
deeds!
East Alabama Principal Bans Confederate Flag Shirts
'Reeltown High School is home to the rebels, but you won't
see students sporting the rebel flag on campus. Principal Tom Cochran sent a letter to parents telling them their
students are no longer allowed to wear Confederate flag t-shirts to school. It stems from racial tension within the school
following Barack Obama's presidential win.'
'...Several fights broke out at the school between white and
Hispanic students, and then the announcement was made to not allow the rebel flag. “I don’t believe it’s
a racial issue at all, it’s just a tribute to Michael,” Lewis said. Officials with Washington County Schools did
acknowledge Crockett’s principal is not allowing the rebel flag symbol at school.'
So when foreigners
get in fights with our children in our own schools, it is the people of Dixie who are the ones punished with the
banning of our cultural symbols. How just!
Sons of Confederate Veterans denied from flying flag in parade
Veteran's
Day has passed, but this issue is still at hand, like most past Confederate heritage violations. All I will say, is that for
those who claim that our heritage, or our flag is divisive, they must take a look at their own hypocrisy that causes a divide,
when offending and angering the 'Americans' of Dixie.
Thomas DiLorenzo - 'The Gilded Age and the Gold Standard'
'Recorded at the Mises Institute Supporters Summit, 31
October 2008; Auburn, Alabama. Introduction by Mark Thornton. Thomas DiLorenzo is professor of economics at Loyola College,
Maryland, and a senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute.'
The origin of today's tyrants
at the Federal Reserve and in the White House, Congress and other positions of power in the Imperial Cesspool are traced
back to Alexander Hamilton and then through Lincoln's invasion of Dixie and the late 1800's. Through it all, the attack
on sound money and liberty by the Feds and their backers raged.
Is Henry Paulson the most Evil man in Amerika? Maybe.
'Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson broadened the reach of the $700 billion financial rescue program on Wednesday... Paulson
said the bailout fund would not buy up asset-backed securities, as the plan was originally sold to Congress, but shifted the
focus to give the Treasury Department broader discretion in how to spend the funds....'
If not the most evil,
Paulson is definitely one of the most destructive and tyrannical men in the Empire.

SLMNews now has two complete pieces available to listen to from

the System. Only at SLMN!
'Weapons dealers in much of the United States are reporting
sharply higher sales since Barack Obama won the presidency a week ago. Buyers and sellers attribute the surge to worries that

Article: 'Obama must not ignore Confederate rights issue'
'Obama should follow the example of Montgomery Mayor Bobby Bright,

politicians stayed home.'
'...Anti-war activists are ratcheting up pressure on President-elect
Barack Obama to dump Defense Secretary Robert Gates and replace him with a more strident anti-war voice..... Many Democrats

keep his promise to bring troops home from Iraq in a prudent and speedy fashion.'

end to end. The X is a reference to the Confederate flag, Heath said. It reflects his belief that the Confederate flag has
been unfairly targeted for protest by people trying to be politically correct.'
Feds claim civilian killings haven't damaged relations with Afghans
'A top American diplomat said Saturday he did not believe tensions
over civilian casualties have damaged relations between the U.S. and Afghanistan.... Civilian deaths have caused increasing
friction between the Afghan government and the U.S. An Afghan commission found that an August operation by U.S. forces killed
90 civilians in the village of Azizabad. The U.S. originally said no civilians died; a high-level investigation later concluded
33 civilians were killed.'
Secret Order Lets U.S. Raid Al Qaeda in Many Countries
'The United States military since 2004 has used broad, secret
authority to carry out nearly a dozen previously undisclosed attacks against Al Qaeda and other militants in Syria, Pakistan
and elsewhere, according to senior American officials.... These military raids, typically carried out by Special Operations
forces, were authorized by a classified order that Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld signed in the spring of 2004 with
the approval of President Bush, the officials said. The secret order gave the military new authority to attack the Qaeda terrorist
network anywhere in the world, and a more sweeping mandate to conduct operations in countries not at war with the United States.'
Not in the Constitution? That's okay because as we are endlessly reminded 'after September 11 everything
changed.' In other words, the Constitution is out and the Empire marches on.
'If anybody had hoped that Barack Obama's election victory
would lead to a swift breakthrough in Washington's relations with one of its toughest adversaries, Iran, the honeymoon
seems to be over before it even began.'
When Government steals from the People to give to Big Business
'Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid (D-Nev.) are urging Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson to use his authority under the $700 billion Wall Street bailout
package to help beleagured U.S. automakers. General Motors, the largest of the Big Three auto companies, reported this week
that it faces a dangerous cash crunch and could run out of money next year. With sales slumping, the auto industry and its
allies in Congress are calling for as much as $50 billion in new government loans to help the struggling companies, on top
of $25 bilion already approved.'
If you or I run out of money we take on an extra job or sell something
off or take some other measures to better our situation. When Wallstreet bankers or Detroit automakers get in financial trouble
they turn to the Feds - who take our money and gives it to them. What a system!
Obama pledges to expand the Empire into Eastern Europe
'U.S. President-elect Barack Obama has told Polish President
Lech Kaczynski that he intends to continue plans for a missile shield in eastern Europe, the Polish president's office
said on its Web site Saturday. Obama spoke of his plans during a phone conversation with Kaczynski, the office said. During
the call, Obama said he hoped for continued military and political cooperation between the United States and Poland and hoped
to meet with Kaczynski soon, according to the report.'
Shell is given 25-year Monopoly access to Iraqi Oil
'A joint venture between Royal Dutch Shell and Iraq's state-owned
South Gas Co. could give Shell a 25-year monopoly on production and exports of natural gas in much of southern Iraq - the
biggest foreign role in Iraq's oil and gas sector in four decades.'
Are you a giant, government-aided business?
If so, then you may be able to profit greatly from various Federal wars of aggression and foreign occupations. Isn't it
great when you don't have to compete like everyone else in the market - you can just go to government and have them
give you what you want?!
'In 22 states, including Arkansas, it is illegal to call yourself
an interior designer without going through an arduous and expensive certification process. In Nevada, it's illegal to
do interior design without a license. That's right, advising someone about drapes could land you in the hoosegow.'
Obama's Chief of Staff choice favours Compulsory Government Service
'Rep. Rahm Emanuel of Illinois, President-Elect Barack Obama's
choice for chief of staff in his incoming administration, is co-author of a book, The Plan: Big Ideas for America,
that calls for, among other things, compulsory service for all Americans ages 18 to 25.'
Are you ready to be
forced to work for the Federal Government? What will you do when Obama and Emanuel conscript you into the Feds' service?
No Representation for Dixie in new Federal Government
'Obama did better among white voters than Kerry and Gore. He
fared poorly with Southern whites, winning only 1 in 3 of them. But Obama and the Democratic Party don't appear to need
those voters to hold power in Washington, said Thomas Schaller, a political scientist at the University of Maryland, Baltimore
County, and the author of "Whistling Past Dixie." Thanks to congressional gains across the nation Tuesday, Schaller
said, Democrats could now form a Senate majority without a single Southerner and a House majority without a single white Southerner.
"You have a completely different coalition that's running this country," he said.'
'The 2008 presidential election should serve as a good lesson
for the Libertarian Party (LP). Bob Barr, a former Republican congressman (who ironically many Libertarians helped defeat
in Congress), received about 0.4% of the total vote. Barr was chosen as the nominee back in May at the LP convention. There
were many candidates and it took several ballots before it came down to Bob Barr vs. Mary Ruwart for the Libertarian Party’s
nominee.'
'South Carolina Republican Sen. Jim DeMint is pushing his party’s
leadership to expel Sen. Ted Stevens from the Senate during this month’s “lame duck” session, according
to people familiar with his plans. DeMint, one of the most conservative members of the Senate, is said to be angry with Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) for tolerating a convicted felon in the GOP caucus.'
DeMint has repeatedly been
right while the GOP leadership has been wrong. DeMint was right to oppose Bush and McCain on amnesty. He was right to
oppose Bush and McCain on the banker-bailout. And now he is right to call for the removal of the convicted felon Senator Ted
Stevens from the party.
Americans have been unfortunately so un-educated through a process
of propagandization, which we falsely refer to as "education", that when the word "confederation" is mentioned,
the typical citizen believes that it refers to the South, when our region was the Confederates States of America (though we
legally still are, actually).
But, a confederation is actually a voluntary union of states, or nations. The Lakota
Nation, and Cherokee Nation's, each are comprised of a confederation, for example. The Swiss currently bind themselves
through confederation. And, even Ireland had once fought in their own "Confederate Wars" in their history.
What is my point to all this? Well, I have noticed that there are millions of Confederate Americans in this modern age,
who do not identify with the Confederates States of America, or even the South. Many of them even oppose our Confederate movement,
yet do not realize that their own movement is the same as ours, in the political context, and even oftenly in the social aspect.
How do we unite ourselves with these non-Southern, Confederate Americans? Why should we be united with them? We unite
with these people, by teaching them that a confederation does not have to refer to the South, but it refers to the original
foundation of American principles, when the United States was first established as a confederation, by our Founders.
We teach them that the Federalists, like those that they currently oppose, at one time hi-jacked the Articles of Confederation,
and rather than making more progress towards the articles, they instead conspired an agenda to change the form of government
into a federation, very similar in model to the British Empire.
Luckily, our anti-Federalist (Confederate) Founders
embedded their own policies into the newly created Constitution, which actually allowed citizen protection from the Federal
government. And, when in the shed of light, we realize that the first American Revolution was never actually won. Independence
was won from Britain, but it was not achieved from their like-minded Federal competition.
When the Confederate
States of America seceded from the United States, the South took with themselves the policies and principles of the anti-Federalist
Founders before us. The North, on the other hand, had practically hi-jacked not only the original concept of American government
that was institutionalized by the anti-Federalist, but also by the Federalists of the 1770's and 1780's.
The Confederate States of America did not send hundreds of thousands of men to die for the protection of slaves, in which
more than 85% of them did not even own. And, neither are the neo-Confederates of today, fighting for the protection of any
slaves that we do not currently own. So, exactly what are we fighting for? The same ideologies that Thomas Jefferson stood
for.
And, those are the same principles that many non-Southern, anti-Federalists are trying to defend. Yet, the
same propagandization as mentioned in the first paragraph, has led these non-Southern, anti-Federalists to refuse association
with the neo-Confederate movement. Though, our movements, in reference to the Constitution, and oftenly in reference to social,
economic, environmental, cultural, and religious issues, are practically the same.
We must teach these non-Southern,
Confederates about our comparisons, in order so that we may unite in this movement of liberty. This will only strengthen the
cause. And, the comprehension that non-Southerners may learn about our heritage, may inspire them to begin to stand up for
the rights of their neighbors in the South.
Thus, the liberty movement which they dominate, can be drastically
given a support, while our own heritage movement that we dominate, can be provided with greater support, as well. It's
important for people to know that a "Confederate American" does not have to be someone from the South, because many
of our Founders were Confederate Americans, and though were from the North.
On the other hand, a "Yankee"
is the product of the Federalist Empire. Since the Republican Party, and Democrat Party, are practically the two wings of
the same eagle of prey, both parties are dominated by "Federalists". What we have, isn't an issue of Republican
versus Democrat, nor liberal versus conservative. This is an issue of the two "technical" parties at hand. It is
a case of anti-Federalists, versus Federalists.
Who's been winning our elections, term after term? Federalists.
Why are we losing civil liberties? Because, we have lost our States' rights. The United States of America was meant to
be established as a Confederation, where States could primarily dictate themselves, in order so that we all do not have to
dictate each other, by permission of the Feds.
Let us not secede from one another, but instead secede from the
Federal government, establish a new governing body, by means of a confederation, as our anti-Federalist Founders had in mind,
so that we may completely abolish the Federalist Empire, and end the global expansion of terrorism, which the Bible protests
against.
'That Bush is a Big Government Republican is undeniable. His
two great social spending initiatives, prescription drug benefits for seniors under Medicare and No Child Left Behind, so
testify. But how many Republicans opposed Bush on these initiatives? How many have called for the abolition of either program,
or for raising payroll taxes to pay for prescription drugs?... Bush sought amnesty for illegal aliens and backs the free-trade
globalism that exported our manufacturing base and 3 million to 4 million jobs. But McCain is even more enthusiastic about
both.'
Many conservatives apparently put principle over party Tuesday,
letting the socialist warmongers who make up the leadership of the GOP, experience a slaughter at the polls. This was not
only the smart choice, it was also the moral choice - rewarding those who start wars of aggression and lie about their support
for the free market only promotes more wars and more socialism. Meanwhile, quite a few conservative-leaning Democrats who
opposed the banker-bailout (many of whom are also critical of Washington's overseas Empire) won their races. If the GOP
doesn't learn from this election, political irrelevance looms ahead for a party that only recently dominated the political
world.
'Even in the once reliable South, Republicans were being squeezed between a historic black voter turnout
on the left and a backlash from conservatives on the right after Washington’s $700 billion rescue plan for the troubled
banking industry.'
Conservative South Carolinian Jim DeMint was very clear about the reason the GOP was so
soundly rejected. "Republicans must admit the Wall Street bailouts were a trillion-dollar bust, and immediately fight
for free-market solutions that create jobs and increase freedom,” DeMint said. “This election reflects a failure
of Republicans to keep their conservative promises.”
'More than 500 Tibetan exiles have gathered in Dharamsala, the headquarters of the Tibetan government-in-exile in northern
India, to weigh options in their struggle for political rights in Tibet.... Many younger Tibetans believe the "Middle
Way" is a dead end, and want a more radical, forceful and confrontational approach, including a renewed call for independence
and stepped up protests.'
