Surprises in todays State department bill...

[tangent4ronpaul]

1) budget to be increased by 1/3rd

2) Reproductive health has been re-defined to include the right to an abortion - internationally.

3) We are going to shove PC down the rest of the rest of the worlds throats in the form of vilifying "hate crimes" and pushing for every other country to adopt gay, lesbian and transsexual rights.... (yeah - that's going to go over REALLY WELL! - NOT!).

4) State dept gets OK to influence US citizens via propaganda distributed domestically.

:rolleyes:

Now what section of the Constitution said we could impose our morals on the rest of the world? - I can't seem to find it....

And if you want to talk about a major root cause for the WoT - this would be it....

Can you elaborate on #4?

It was about being able to show/sell a copy of a film on Afghanistan and the drug problem and a prohibition about distributing / influencing the US population. Problem is, once lifted, they get free reign on becoming a propaganda wing of the US gvmt against the domestic population.

That's because our current federal government acts like an anarchical agent. It does not submit to a rule of law (the Constitution), it does not answer to anyone for its mistakes, and it does whatever it feels is good. In a sense, our federal government has become autonomous, and there is nothing it can't do right, in its eyes.

Lol. well done.

It is true that anybody is free to take it to a private court or something using their private security force or something.

Yay Anarchy!

Well, I hope their little film goes over the CIA's interest in opium. Probably not, huh? ;)
