Sea Change

I was a professor of economics.

I am also the author of a book that says professors are morons.

Economics is important, but remember the rule that social scientists, like generals, are always still fighting the last war.

The last total sea change in world politics occurred as a result of the Great Depression, which put Roosevelt and Hitler into power — it is an incredible historical coincidence how those two men stayed in power for almost the exact same period — and led to World War II.

So everybody keeps telling me an economic collapse will cause the NEXT sea change. That’s the last war, so why shouldn’t it be this one?

The political sea change before the Great Depression occurred in the 1914-1918 World War One and its aftermath. Actually, one of the best economic years on record was 1913. If you had been looking at the economy you would have been hit in the back of the head by what actually happened.

No one notices that we are showing symptoms of a collapse of our rule by default, my article below.

Keep looking at economics. Keep looking at the Iraq War. They are IMPORTANT. But do not drown in them.

If you want to look for a sea change, your periscope has to be ABOVE the water line.

Rule by Default

I remember a liberal senator being asked what a law that was being considered actually MEANT. He took the deep, exasperated breath Politically Correct people take when a person does not Understand How Things Are and said,

“We have something called The Supreme Court. THEY will decided exactlywhat the law means.”

To quote Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, “To say that a law means what it says is PERNICIOUS oversimplification.”

Constitutional Law is also referred to as “judge-made law.” That is its official title. While conservatives talk endlessly about strict construction, none of them means a word of it. No conservative will EVER criticize the decision striking down all antimiscegenation laws in 1968, and the Cour openly threw all intent and any kind of construction at all out to get that one.

OPENLY.

So conservatives were stunned when Roe vs. Wade, which was far more based on original intent — many states that ratified the Constitution had no antiabortion laws but ALL of them had antimiscegenation laws –was decided. “Where” they universally screamed, did THIS come from?

It came from YOU. You acquiesced or praised the 1968 decision.

The Constitution specifically outlaws judge made law. The first word of Article I of the United States Constitution is “ALL.”

As in “ALL legislative powers are vested in the congress…”

But today all legislative power is going to the courts by default. In a multicultural, multiracial country law simply cannot be made by common consent. In a multicultural society society there is, BY DEFINITION, no common consent.

In a system as weighted down with checks and balances and separation of powers like ours, which was developed for a monoracial, monocultural country, nothing but a dictatorship can function. The only dictators who can function freely are the courts.

As the senator quoted at the outset of this piece stated, the courts will become more and more the sole lawmakers.

Until somebody takes power from THEM.

There is a point here that is so obvious that only Bob would notice it:

The courts did not TAKE power. They got power by DEFAULT. No one else can exercise it.

But rule by default NEVER lasts.

Kerensky took over Russia for a year to fill the vacuum left by the fall of the Tsar. The Weimar Republic ruled Germany to fill the vacuum left by the fall of the Kaiser.

Moussilini just mentioned in a speech that he would like to march on Rome and take power. He was so astonished by the reaction that he almost MISSED the March on Rome. This is real history. The default government was so weak that the march began without him.

In 1992 Ross Perot was actually leading in the polls for the presidency when he dropped out. He had just mentioned on Larry King that he would be willing to run for president and the movement exploded, to his astonishment, the way it did with Moussilini.

Nobody but me remembers that, and what it MEANT.

We are being governed by default. Whent he change comes, we who are doing the talking do not realize how close we are to a March on Rome by somebody.

As President Jackson demonstrated, the courts’ fatal weakness is that they are not in DIRECT command of the armed forces.

In a monoracial monocultural society Jackson’s telling the Supreme Court he would not enforce its decision has been largely a matter of historical detail. No one was surprised when the Republican platform of 1860 was based on the fact that the Party would not enforce the Dred Scot Decision.

In 1860 no one said the executive or legislative branches HAD to enforce Supreme Court decisions. But NO ONE would say that today.

Least of all respectable conservatives. The last one to say that was Barry Goldwater, and he backed down.

Now everybody looks first to the courts to decide ALL major matters of policy. The other branches of government openly act at the sufferance of the courts. The executive has no power that the courts do not grant it. The congress has no power unless the courts grant it. The states certainly have exactly the power the Federal courts allow them. “We the people of the United States” in referenda are routinely subject to court approval.

A call for a constitutional convention would have to be declared valid by the courts. Only a tiny oligarchy of lifetime appointees CAN make policy in a multiracial, multicultural society.

Today power is becoming less and less a matter of abstract discussion and more and more a matter of bareknuckled force. The facade is wearing thin.

And in the real world, nobody has power or money that someone else will not try to take away from them. Somebody forgot to tell those who things are settled that simple fact of life.

Someone who is not a respectable conservative, someone who sees America as a country ready to obey ANYBODY, will want that power and take it.

No, it won’t call itself a dictatorship. And in the real world, ALL governments are oligarchies.

The racial coalitions will form, and it will not be a loud revolution.

They will simply tell the courgts to go to hell.

And the courts, just like the executive and the legislative branches and the states and the people have already done, will do just that.

The Bricker Amendment

The left “exercising its right to free speech.”

The right “hides behind the first amendment.”

This is hte official language used in the media. So Holocaust deniers who do their denying on the internet are, according to official media language, “Hiding behind the first amendment in the United States.”

In plain English, that means that they avoiding the years in prison that they deserve.

But the first amendment isnot a very safe hiding place.

Many years ago the Supreme Court decided that treaties are not subject to constitutional guarantees. The treaty that established the United Nations is exempt from the Constitution.

In case you think this is a detail of history, Senator Bricker of Ohio fought for years for his constitutional amendment which would overrule the Supreme Court and make treaties subject to the United States Constitution.

They are NOT.

So the first amendment does NOT protect you from extradition to Europe for internet Holocaust denial. The UNited Nations, which is exempt from the first amendment, has demanded it.

Under present so-called constitutional law, which means whatever the Supreme Court feels like, the United States is obligated to extradict any person to France if he violates French Holocaust Denial law.

Or Israeli Holocaust denial law.

If that were NOT the case, the Bricker Amendment would have passed. Bricker fought for it a LONG time. It’s the real thing.

It happens to be true that if the United Nations declared worldwide gun control, the United States is obligated to obey.

It happens to be the case that if the United Nations says that Americans accused of war crimes by Sweden must be extradicted, what we call constitutional law requires us to do it.

And when the UN gets wround to THAT, the conservatives will start screaming, just as they did with Roe versus Wade, “How could THIS have happened?”

These things ALWAYS start with “a blow against racism” like the 1968 Supreme Court decision voiding all state antimiscegenation laws. The conservatives ALWAYS fail to notice it.

Then it ALWAYS comes home to roost.

How MANY Jews Must You Believe in?

In an episode right out of Orwell’s novel 1984, the Austrian police found that the Brirtish historian David Irving was in that country and arested him for Holocaust Denial. He faces up to twenty years in prison.

Like other European countries, Austria requires that anyone extradicted to the United States be guaranteed to be exempt from capital punishmentand is on record as officially condemning the United States for having capital punishment.

So what respectable cosnervative has even whispered any criticism of Austria’s arrest of Irving for saying what he believes?

Nada.

Canada arrested and extradicted Ernst Zundel for Holocaust Denial to Germany. He will get six years as I understand it.

On November 1, 2005 a UN Resolution which was not voted on but passed unanimously outlaws Holocaust and requires every country inthe UN, including the United States, to extradite Holocaust Deniers.

How many respectable conservatives have mentioned this?

Nada. And they won’t.

When the cops come for them for supporting capital punishment, they will squeal as loudly as the pope did when the Supreme Court decided Roe vs. Wade.

But the Catholic wildly applauded when the Supreme Court openly declared both constitutional intent and indeed any reference to the Constitution unimportant by voiding all state miscegenation laws in 1968. That decision very openly made the Constitution anything the Supreme Court dfecides is “modern.”

Catholics are still whining about Roe vs. Wade, but do they say about the decision that gave the Supreme absolute power?

Nada. They approved it. The Church will fight for it.

So you have to be extradicted for expressing any doubts about the official version of the Holocaust.

What ARE the details you cannot deny?

Irving says about 300,000 Jews died in the Holocaust. He does not deny there was one, the way French historians almost unanimously denied the Ukrainian holocaust, the starvation where between five and 22 million Ukrainians died.

Alan Colmes has stated flatly that comparing the death of Ukrainians to the death of Jews is “trivializing the Holocaust.” So I may be subject to arrest for the paragraph above.

In Germany, if you deny that a full six million Jews died in the Holocaust, you face an automatic prison term which is not a minimum of two years. But I read an official French Government publication which states that only 5.3 million Jews “disappeared” under Hitler. That includes Madelein Albright.

This is pretty serious business. If you are to feel safe traveling in Europe, just how many Jews must you say died in the Holocaust?
