Ted Cruz Was Right, Again
The usual suspects are attacking Ted Cruz for doing his job.Republicans and a chorus of conservative commentators are dumping on the sole conservative Republican senator from Texas because — the horror! — he dared to force his Senate colleagues to publicly take sides on President Obama’s shameful extralegal unilateral immigration amnesty.
Apologists for Republican cowardice claim to be upset with Cruz because, as they claim, his parliamentary maneuvers to stymie the amnesty somehow allowed some objectionable Obama nominees to move forward in the confirmation process.
Of course, they’re lying. All Obama nominees are objectionable — remember, our president is a red diaper baby — yet the Senate eventually caves to Obama on more or less all of them. Any Senate that can confirm a full-on racist, pro-terrorist, America-hating, kooky, in-your-face Marxist like Tom Perez as labor secretary is going to give its blessing to just about anyone Obama sends over. Who really cares if a few bureaucrats who will be approved anyway by the incoming Republican Senate in the new year get to work a few weeks or months early?
What really infuriates namby-pamby Republican senators is that Cruz forced them to take a public stand on the president’s unilateral amnesty. They know that the Republican Party base is mad as hell over the amnesty, and they don’t feel the need to answer to mere hoi polloi. Bought off by the crony capitalist lobby, they support amnesty but don’t want to face the electoral consequences for their betrayal of the American people. Just as Democrats don’t want to get rid of poverty, Republicans in leadership don’t want to stop the amnesty (or get rid of ...

The punishment for piracy was death by public hanging.
History repeats itself. Barack Obama has enslaved the American people with a mandatory tax and has forced us to pay a ransom in order to remain free from IRS tyranny.
How is this fundamentally different than what the Muslim Barbary Pirates did to us in the past, we had to pay a ransom and they enslaved us when we did not; serfdom or slavery, not much of a choice.
White Slavery And The Barbary Pirates
The Barbary Pirates were a band of privateers who served as part of the naval forces of the Ottoman Empire, a huge, multi-ethnic empire that spanned throughout southern Europe, northern Africa, the Mediterranean region, and the Middle East. The Barbary Pirates operated in teams from ports in North Africa such as Algeirs, Tunis and Tripoli. Their reign of terror in the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean lasted about 250 years from the late 1500’s to the early 1800’s. By the 1700’s, the Barbary Pirates had become so fearsome that many nations, including the United States for some time, agreed to pay them an annual ransom to ensure their trading vessels sailed safely in the Mediterranean.
The Barbary Pirates frequently raided seafaring vessels and coastal towns. They often captured Christians in Italy, Spain, France, and Portugal and sold them as slaves in Morrocco or Algeria. Others were forced to man the oars of the pirate galleys and suffered horrible abuses such as lashings and deprivation of food. Such raids terrorized coastal populations and caused many villages to be abandoned completely out of fear. Treasures and slaves captured from raids were divided amongst the pasha (the Muslim ruler of Algeirs), privateers, and the soldiers who boarded seized ships.
The end for the Barbary Pirates came in the early 1800’s when they began seizing American ships in the Atlantic Ocean and enslaving their crews. This resulted in the birth of the U.S. Navy and the refusal of the American government to continue to pay the one million dollar annual tribute for free passage in the Mediterranean Sea (which they had done for nearly 10 years). The refusal resulted in the First Barbary War (1801-1805) and then the Second Barbary War (1815), both decisive American victories.
