(Thomas Phippen) Former Florida Democratic Rep. Corrine Brown reported to federal prison Monday to start her five year sentence for multiple crimes, including tax fraud and corruption.

Brown, 71, turned herself in to the Sumter Correctional Institution in Florida, one of the largest federal prisons in the country, which houses both violent and non-violent offenders. Brown will be serving her five-year sentence at a minimum-security satellite facility, which keeps roughly 391 other female inmates.

“The difference between a Nazi and a Communist is when you say how horrible Nazis have been, they don’t say, ‘well, real Nazism has never been tried.’ – Being Libertarian”

My Commentary: *Plus, it’s not yet socially-acceptable to “punch a communist”…

(…for promoting THE most murderous flavor of Statism on record, perhaps?)

The Oldest Rhetorical Trick in the Book:
http://www.intellectualtakeout.org/blog/oldest-rhetorical-trick-book

(Donald J. Boudreaux) In his brilliant 1956 collection, Minority Report, H.L. Mencken stated:

If you were against the New Deal and its wholesale buying of pauper votes, then you were against Christian charity.  If you were against the gross injustices and dishonesties of the Wagner Labor Act, then you were against labor.  If you were against packing the Supreme Court, then you were in favor of letting Wall Street do it.  If you are against using Dr. Quack’s cancer salve, then you are in favor of letting Uncle Julius die.  If you are against Holy Church, or Christian Science, then you are against god.  It is an old, old argument.

My Commentary: The non sequitur fallacy is the Statist’s best friend.

Hatred for Humanity Packaged as Empathy for Animals

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Beyond the Truth,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

“In the end, I think it would be lovely if we stopped this whole notion of pets, altogether. Eventually, companion animals would be phased out, and we would return to a more symbiotic relationship – enjoyment at a distance. If people want toys, they should buy inanimate objects. If they want companionship, they should seek it with their own kind.” – Ingrid Newkirk, PETA

My Commentary: Talk about disgusting… A companion animal isn’t a “toy,” lady, and symbiotic relationships don’t inherently require “distance.” Looks like thinly-veiled hatred for humanity, packaged as “ethical” and “empathetic,” to me.
