BEHIND THE SCENES WITH
MICHAEL COLLINS PIPER
Rand
Paul's Recent Remarks
Raise New Concerns
By Michael Collins
Piper
 |
. In
early November, just after AMERICAN
FREE PRESS
went to press, AFP discovered some unsettling
new details that raise more questions as to where
Senator-elect Rand Paul (R-Ky.) really stands
on the issues.
AFP
has expressed hope that Paul would be a Senate
version of his father, respected Rep. Ron Paul
(R-Texas) — despite the younger Paul’s
earlier campaign rhetoric rattling the saber at
Iran, reflecting the warmongering attitudes of
the “neo-conservatives” who are trying
to force an American attack on Iran. But recent
comments by Rand Paul in an interview with The
Wall Street Journal suggest Paul is repudiating
other views of many in the “tea party”
movement nationwide that rallied behind Paul and
his father.
On
Nov. 6 The Wall Street Journal —
published by media titan Rupert Murdoch (whose
rise to power came through the combined forces
of the Rothschild- Bronfman-Oppenheimer network)
— featured an interview with Rand Paul conducted
by Matthew Kaminski.
Although
Paul promised that he didn’t plan on being
“bashful,” he emphasized that he is
“not that crazy” when asked if he
were “a crazy libertarian.” Kaminski
added:
He
has made other concessions to the mainstream.
He now avoids his dad’s talk of shutting
the Federal Reserve and abolishing the income
tax. In a bigger shift from his campaign pledge
to end earmarks, he tells me that they are a
bad “symbol” of easy spending but
that he will fight for Kentucky’s share
of earmarks and federal pork, as long as it’s
doled out transparently at the committee level
and not parachuted in the dead of night. “I
will advocate for Kentucky’s interests,”
he said.
That
Paul was seemingly changing his tune when talking
with the insider-controlled “voice of Wall
Street” is a matter of concern, but, obviously,
as the saying goes: “By their fruits, ye
shall know them.” Time will tell.
The
“fruits” will be Paul’s actions
— and votes — as a member of the Senate
which will demonstrate where he really stands
on the issues. All concerned Americans need to
keep the heat on Paul and all other Congressmen
to restore constitutional principles and bring
the real change for which grassroots Americans
have loudly clamored.

* Issue 48 AMERICAN FREE PRESS TEXE MARRS ON THE TEA
PARTY PHENOMENON |
Tea Party Entangled With Warmongers
Tea party candidates like those above were
all Israel firsters and have advocated Israel's viewpoint
vis-a-vis Iran. America's Jewish lobby is thrilled by
their rhetoric — and they are thrilled to receive
its blessings. |
By Texe Marrs
 Consider
the two following scenarios: A pilot whose plane is
lost somewhere over the Pacific Ocean, flying with
a defunct navigation system, is on the radio to anyone
who will listen and says: “I don’t know
where I am going, but at least I’m making good
time.” Many in today’s tea parties aimlessly
say to a corrupt Washington, D.C.: “We don’t
know how and where you should cut spending, but we
demand you cut our taxes and slash spending.”
In either case, a wise person can predict the outcome:
“Disaster just ahead.”
The
tea party debacle is a sad situation. Such promise,
such great tactics, such incredibly poor strategy,
such a horrible failure coming right up. The tea parties
are a great idea gone horribly wrong.
True,
the people are angry and fed up. They’re staging
a long-needed popular rebellion, demanding taxes be
cut and spending be slashed. The tea parties managed
to get quite a few of their candidates elected this
year to enter a corrupt and indifferent Congress.
But now what?
NO PLAN, NO SPECIFICS
In
fact, the tea parties have no real plan and offer
no specifics. Winning a few hard-fought elections
is all well and good, but there is not going to be
much follow-up. Republican legislators who won their
seats thanks to tea party activism have nowhere to
go once they take office. Some might say they should
all act as “Dr. No’s” — meaning
that they ought to simply vote “no” on
any major spending measures. But which — and
how much — spending are they going to cut? The
silence is deafening.
MOST ARE WARMONGERS
How
about all those trillions of dollars for bloody, expensive
wars and bogus homeland security? Well, think, folks
— most tea party people are actually pro-war
and pro-homeland security. In fact, the most ardent
members of the tea party are your typical pro-Bush,
pro-Cheney, pro-Zionist neo-conservatives. They bought
into the ridiculous official version of 9-11. Many
actually are convinced that Bush did an honorable
thing in cranking up wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and
Pakistan.
Sadly,
most tea party people lean toward warmongering. The
fact that thousands of young American soldiers are
dead, and thousands more are maimed for life, does
not seem to phase them. They have little or no sympathy
for the hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis,
Afghanis and Pakistanis who were slain, tortured and
disfigured by American bombs and bullets.
From
what I can discern, most tea party activists don’t
mind much, if at all, that the U.S. government has
shoveled some $4 trillion into these wars and billions
of dollars in foreign aid to the wealthy nation of
Israel, among others. Apparently they have no problem
with the huge bloated military budget that has resulted.
No
one in the tea party leadership — and very few
of the rank and file — is hollering: “Cut
military spending; stop these futile, unnecessary,
unconstitutional wars; bring our troops home from
the 130 countries overseas where they are stationed!”
POLICE STATE CONTINUES
Likewise,
the gullible among the tea party faithful actually
believe the laughable myth that 19 inept Arabs and
a shadowy mastermind walking on a cane and living
in a cave, Osama bin Laden, pulled off 9-11 and that
“domestic terrorists” surround us on every
street corner.
The
tea-party Republicans — most of whom adored
President Bush and Vice President Cheney — have
no problem with the tens of billions thrown to the
winds each year in building up a Big Brother police
state. They agree with the un-American idea of giving
up freedoms in exchange for protection from “those
terrorists.” They think you can protect freedom
by giving it up.
If
these two areas alone — military war spending
and big-brother homeland security spending —
were cut, America could solve its deficit problem
and taxes could be reduced. But — pardon my
Texan dialect — “it ain’t gonna
happen,” because too many tea partiers tolerate
worthless wars and seem genuinely frightened of virtually
nonexistent Muslim and domestic terrorists.
Can
you name one tea-party leader — be it a local
leader or Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Newt Gingrich,
John McCain, or any of the tea party candidates —
who are publicly demanding the Feds slash war and
Big-Brother spending? No, in fact, they are fervent
supporters of such spending. Some even want the U.S.
to attack Iran, to stop the “new Hitler,”
President Ahmadinejad. Most see nothing wrong with
the Feds torturing suspects, slamming citizens into
gulag prison cells, censoring the Internet, checking
our mail or wiretapping our phones. Ending the Federal
Reserve is not even mentioned.

WHAT ABOUT RAND PAUL?
Yes,
Texas Rep. Ron Paul will vote against such wasteful
spending on wars and surveillance. But a number of
tea partiers have given him the cold shoulder. Obviously,
the tea party organizers, who are warmongers, despise
Dr. Paul.
Then
there’s Rand Paul, of course, Ron’s son
— a tea party favorite who was elected to the
Senate representing Kentucky.Why do a number of tea
partiers support Rand and not Ron? Because Rand’s
campaign webpage outlines his undying support for
Israel. Translated: Give the Jews what they want —
Middle East wars, foreign aid, etc.
WHAT SPENDING CUTS?
Please
tell me, where are all these spending cuts going to
come from? While some in the tea party rank-and-file
are angry over the illegal alien invasion, we are
not seeing a clamor by most tea party leaders and
speakers demanding that all illegal aliens be deported,
so we can save billions spent on illegal aliens’
welfare, education and healthcare. Sure, the Republicans
and tea party leaders all talk about border enforcement,
but what about the 35 million-plus illegal aliens
already inside our borders?
Nor
is anyone in the tea party movement naming even one
federal bureau or agency that should be shut down,
even as the federal workforce drastically inflates.
But
wait, someone has come up with specifics on where
and what to cut. The political establishment —
Democrat and Republican — has solved it. Let’s
just cut “entitlements,” they are saying
in unison. Let’s take it from the working folks.
Wars and big brother are fine, you see. But let’s
axe grandma’s Medicare and Social Security.
Yes,
their solution is to slash the Social Security and
Medicare benefits of the tens of millions of loyal
Americans who, for all their working lives, poured
chunks of their earnings into this program.
And
don’t say you didn’t ask for it, tea partiers.
You fiercely demanded unspecified spending cuts —
and the elite prepared a trap for you. America is
being Reconstructed, beat down to Third World status,
and you had no idea where all your complaints and
protests were taking you.
The
governing elite used and abused you.They knew all
along what they had planned: You folks demanded they
cut spending but you left it open as to where to cut.
So cutting your future entitlements, and those of
your parents and grandparents, is just the thing to
help “reduce red ink.”
Now
don’t get me wrong. Actually, overall spending
for entitlement programs will increase. It has to
in order to enable the government to redistribute
your paid-in monies to the foreigners illegally in
America. These illegal aliens are soon going to be
made “instant citizens.”
That’s
right — already Obama and Congress have said
that over the next decade, $800 billion should be
taken from native-born American citizens’ paid-in
Social Security and Medicare and spent instead on
“ObamaCare,” with a lot going to illegal
aliens for health benefits.
YOU ASKED FOR IT, YOU GOT
IT
Tea
partiers: You wanted to continue the stupid and unnecessary
wars in the Middle East, so you are going to get them.
You wanted tens of billions for a police state.You’re
going to get it. Somebody has to pay for it all, so
don’t complain when you discover that your hard-earned
Social Security and Medicare benefits perform a magical
shrinking act.
Don’t
moan and whine when the military budget goes through
the roof, either. The illegal wars and torture gulags
that you support — in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan,
and soon in Syria and Iran, are going to be expensive.
And Israel wants billions more U.S. bucks stuffed
into its pockets, so shut up and pay up.
The
bottom line: Even after they slash your Social Security
and Medicare, the federal government will still be
in red ink up to its ears. That is why your tea party
pals, Beck and Bill O’Reilly, have proposed
a new national sales tax and a value added tax. These
will go on top of today’s already outrageously
high income taxes.
The
Republican and Democrat parties thank you, tea partiers,
for making all this possible — for putting popular
pressure behind enlarging the status quo. Welcome
to the new and improved New World Order.
