Part 2 Old Harry Browne ads! Way ahead of his time!

http://www.youtube.com

This is part 2 of old ads I dug up for the Harry Browne 2000 presidential run. These were turned down by comedy central because they said they would not play anything political. Boy have they changed their tune. These ads mainly focus on the War on Drugs and Gun rights. I can't believe he has been gone 5 years, happy B-day Harry!

After crossing the path of one pro-active kid, it has now lost half of its commercial accounts, and is in threat of going out of business all b/c they tried to claim the kid didn't have a parking permit, when in fact they scraped it off the car's windshield and tried to claim it wasn't there in the first place.

Census supervisor: We may be back with a police officer next time

http://www.youtube.com

It was a beautiful Sunday evening around 7:30PM. I had just finished cooking a dinner of chicken wings & a dessert funnel cake for my wife and kids. I was in the kitchen cleaning up when the doorbell rang. My wife & kids were sitting close to the door, watching an episode of Life on the Discovery Channel. My wife answered the door, which was open to allow the cool breeze to come in. There stood a pair of census enumerators. I immediately walked out of the kitchen, and my wife informed them they would need to speak to me.

Suns to wear 'Los Suns' uniforms to honor Phoenix's Latino community

http://sports.yahoo.com

In general, people in the sports world keep their political leanings to themselves. Sure, there are a few guys who regularly speak out on political issues, but for the most part that's considered bad business. As Michael Jordan put it, "Republicans buy shoes too." That's why what the Phoenix Suns are doing is so amazing.

The team will be wearing its "Los Suns" jerseys for Wednesday night's Game 2 against the San Antonio Spurs "to honor [the] Latino community and the diversity of our league, the state of Arizona, and our nation." Awesome...

Saying NO to the Census (and Government)

http://www.youtube.com

If you want the government people to leave you alone you have to stop obeying them. This is a tough thing to do, and it's silly to just jump in the deep end of noncooperation, so saying NO to the census people is a good starter disobedience. Have your video camera or audio recorder handy, and don't be rude or mean. These people are mostly just folks looking for some work; they aren't the government's aggressors. They probably don't realize the money for their checks comes from coercion and fraud.
