Such sentiments continue to be posted, with several more added while this article was being written, and that’s essentially through people learning through the grapevine.

WarOnGuns guest editorial by Russ Howard
Bye bye Tea Party.
Welcome back RINOs. "Con" will forever be the key syllable in conservative. Bizarro USA will be like the "post-war British consensus" in which "wet conservative" collaborators rolled for everything. The extent of Republican "conservatism" will be to tinker and "fix" the welfare state around the edges, reign in just enough of the excesses and idiocies to help ratchet it down for keeps.
Yeah, that's just what we need. More Panic Hispandering, more "prags" to accelerate the race-based voting, appeasement, amnesty, and 3rd-world invasion that tilted the playing field to a high pitch over the last 30 years. Third-world immigrants, especially the extended families of illegal aliens, are NOT going to vote majority Republican. They'll be glad to accept your foolish appeasement, but the vast majority will continue to vote D to lock down the goodies, invasion, coup d'etat and "reconquista" which the idiot Republican "U.S." Chamber of Commerce waterboy collaborators facilitated and did nothing to stop. They'll vote 2-1 Democrat (before counting multiple pseudonymous voting), but many Republicans are so stupid they think we can make up for the per-unit loss by increasing volume.
This presidential election and countless smaller ones, were stolen.O was gonna go -- unless there was massive vote fraud. Which there was, thanks to wishful Republican thinking. In California and too many other states fraudsters can show up to vote without ID and the "authorities" simply take their word for it. 20 years ago when California was already demographically lost on a time delay fuse thanks to Reagan's amnesty (and Republicans were deluding themselves that they could take it back with the old tired loser strategies), the Institute for Fair Elections filmed a couple going from poll to poll doing this. Republican prosecutors and a Republican Secretary of State hushed it up and did nothing.
But it's really easier than that, since you don't even have to leave home to steal votes, thanks to ... tah dah ... Republicans. In California it was a Republican L.A. County Supervisor who championed the suicidal system of mail-in registration and "absentee" balloting that enabled Democrats and illegals to vote as many times as they want with impunity. Pseudonymous multiple voting fraud is extensive because there are no real safeguards and because it is rarely investigated or prosecuted even in the most egregious cases. The defunct IFFE and other groups documented it extensively and were ignored.
But it's even easier than that, since Rs bent over for black box electronic voting and vote "counting", so now Ds and "Rs" don't even have to go to the trouble of registering & voting multiple times. Just "count" the vote. No paper trail. "Quis custodiet custodes?" isn't even the question anymore. Paper ballots and old school counts weren't perfect, but they were the least of evils.

www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=rVTXbARGXso&NR=1[Disclaimer: I do try to distinguish between Republicans and "Republicans", but it's gets too cumbersome sometimes, and of course there's overlap, so the reader will sometimes just have to try to figure out which one I'm referring to. By "Republicans" I mean RINOs and corrupt politicians with Rs after their name. No corrupt pol is a Republican in an honest, accurate sense of the word. Pretty clear that much of the corrupt "Republican" establishment is in on the fraud, which would explain better than idiocy and denial why "Republican" leaders refuse to talk about it. That Ds are in on it would explain why Kerry didn't contest in 2004. How do you cry black box fraud when your side's doing it too and the other side just did more of it? So elections are being stolen by corrupt forces of both parties, though Ds on balance benefited more in 2012, and on balance over time it will move the country in a corrupt, banana-republic, statist, big-government direction - whoever wins, D or "R".]

But Republicans continue in self-delusion and dismissal mode. They don't want to know, let alone do anything, as they have for the last 30 years. They want to keep being "good sportsmen" -- in other words the best, most gracious LOSERS in the world. Double down on the same loser tactics, on the failure to organize and act, and on the betrayals and appeasement that got us here in the first place.
Besides the swing states it was thought Romney would take, and the crude election tampering and intimidation shenanigans in banana republic locales like Philadelphia, one fraud indicator that stinks is Col Allen West's Florida congressional seat, apparently lost to a 20-something ex-RINO. West was polling between one and nine points ahead, but now with 110% of the votes "counted", he's down almost 1%.
We've had elections stolen for many years, more and more frequently. Each stolen election is a bloodless coup d'etat, but Republicans pretend it's not happening, or shrug it off as if it were little kids playing a prank and not an act of war against the Republic by domestic enemies. They would rather pretend Al Qaeda is the big threat or some other foreign enemy. Much more sexy.
Now, with black box systems and no ID required, we're more vulnerable to fraud than many 3rd-world countries, worse really because so many Rs are indoctrinated with the fairy tale that the USA can never be destroyed, that it will always bounce back no matter how bad the fraud, demographics and incentives are weighted against us, that it can't happen here. Anyone for pattycake?
A good indication Republicans will continue to live in denial of this was Rush Limbaugh on the morning after, doing the profoundly obvious mantra that The Problem is that not enough Republicans can deliver The Message well enough. "We just have to be better at delivering The Message." Well we better get really, incredibly better if we expect to explain it to a Tsunami of illiterate "cheap labor", government school graduates, and the "53%" -- and overcome black-box vote rigging on top of it all. It's unrealistic to think our side will get that good. Like the "good sportsmen" they are, Republicans are the best losers in the world. They have to be. They accepted the challenge of so many handicaps, let the field get so tilted that we can't just get better if we want to take it back, we have to get perfect. There's no longer any slack to cover mistakes.
Unfortunately, it wasn't a game. It was a war for our culture and our Republic. The notion that we could afford to bend over for multiple handicaps and we just have to get better at explaining our philosophy is what Republicans have pushed for 30 years, even while they helped derail "radical" tuition voucher initiatives that would've bankrupted the Government-Union/Democrat machine by now -- just by being on the ballot every couple years, let alone passing. And how much better would things be now if every parent had been able to afford to send kids to competitive schools that are not centers of indoctrination, illiteracy and perversion?
Perhaps our side could've won with a bit more registration and GOTV, but next time we would have to do ten times as much of it, and all of us become the perfect superactivist organizers, and that's hardly likely. No party can do things perfectly. That's why we couldn't afford to accept permanent long-game handicaps; we needed slack to absorb inevitable mistakes. By long game, I mean in the much vaunted Chinese sense. You have to accept imperfection, not systematic betrayals and treason. Republicans pissed away our slack through betrayals, dereliction and fairy tale wishful thinking.
But hey, at least Republicans saved Iraq and Afghanistan by preemptive quagmire while they were losing the USA. At least everyone on FoxNews got to play anti-terror strategist and say GITMO instead of Guantanamo Bay (while our own borders were wide open during a "war on terror" and Jihadis were sauntering in and breeding anchor Jihadis). How glamorous. Was it worth it? Really worth it? Maybe we can move to Iraq and Afghanistan and they will give us sanctuary cities and drivers licenses and resident tuition. They're obviously ever so grateful and honorable. No doubt they'll return the favor.
Four centuries after Lepanto, and for at least the last 200 years, the only real threat of Islam to what used to be the west has been immigration, not military attack. Idiots. Like Communism, Islam is not competent to threaten our existence -- that is unless the West decides to lose or just doesn't care anymore. The actual threat that is and has been actually destroying the USA, is internal -- domestic enemies -- and imported courtesy of those domestic enemies. Who's taking your rights away and pissing your country away? Al Qaeda, or the Ds and "R"s? What's your actual chance of being hurt by Al Qaeda? Right around zero percent. What's your chance of the Democrats and RINOs taking your rights away, your country, your quality of life, your liberty, and the legitimacy of your republic, making your vote worthless? 100 percent. They're doing it right now.
Republican "Patriots" should've known that all the Orwellian police state placebos they passed after 911 -- instead of ending the suicidal immigration policies that caused 911 in the first place and cost us the USA on Tuesday -- would be used primarily on Americans. Feel secure now? As always, the greater threat to America and Americans was never primitive Jihadis or other foreign enemies. It was always our own corrupt, lame-o leaders, who laid out the welcome rug for Jihadis in the first place. God help us, we now get the government the stupid a-holes deserve.
Hey, somebody thank the NRA for re-electing Montana's anti-gun Democrat Senator Tester by giving him a phony A- and refusing to endorse his opponent. We didn't have any slack for that kind of game on election day, and now it's too late to do the right thing. Game over. Well, for us anyway, not for the beltway lobbyist whores. It's smiley-face "game on" for them.
Now, for the "What Would Reagan Do" worshippers. The USA is also dead man walking today thanks to Reagan's suicidal 1986 "comprehensive reform" amnesty, the worst field tilter since the Great Society and New Deal (well, other than black box voting anyway). Reagan could've honored his oath, enforced our borders and immigration laws, reversed the problem as Eisenhower did in the 1950s. Instead, 26 years after Reagan's betrayal, we have to overcome tens of millions of votes of former illegals and now-voting-age anchor babies. But at least "Reagan defeated the Soviet Union". Really? How? By deciding he didn't want to let the Soviet Union defeat the USA? As if Communism didn't defeat itself? As if the theoretical threat of the USSR was ever a greater threat to the existence of the USA as a true sovereign constitutional republic than the actual invasion Reagan encouraged and ratified? LOOK AROUND. And someone tell me how cutting taxes without cutting spending was such a good deal. Did I miss those spending cuts? Were there any? Did I misinterpret the last 30 years of Republicans championing tax cuts in order to increase government revenues and not have to cut spending?
For the "miss me now" Bush rehabilitators, I won't get into the idiot non-savant GW "Guest Worker" Bush except to point out that he built up the real estate bubble by importing more "cheap labor" after 911 than the prior several presidents did before 911, did nothing to stop mortgages to illegals and others who never should've had them, then turned what had been a gradual correction into a panic and collapse by championing and signing the Mortgage Debt Forgiveness Relief Act of December 2007. Tens of millions of homeowners for whom a smirky, winky Bush had spread a ridiculous "compassionate conservative" fairy tale -- that they didn't understand the basic terms of the biggest investment they ever made -- who could've kept paying and would have kept paying even though they had negative equity -- began moving towards recorded defaults or were able to force banks to let them get away with unrecorded defaults and keep the homes anyway (aka principle and interest "relief"). The mortgage portfolio, bank and credit markets inevitably collapsed within months. With that alone, not to mention the preemptive quagmires in Iraq and Afghanistan, Bush begat Obama. Well get used to it. Idiots like Bush are back in style for the post-war U.S. consensus.
Finally
Open, uncontrolled mass 3rd world over-immigration IS socialism by automatic redistribution of national wealth and income, inevitably and by definition, in addition to destruction of our sovereignty, heritage, human and natural environments, elbow room, privacy, dignity, mobility, freedom, liberty, heritage, standard of living, cost of living and quality of life. Through subversion of immigration policy and borders, the Wall Street Journal, Chamber of Commerce, 'Libertarians' and the rest of the Immigration Socialist crowd has redistributed or destroyed far more wealth and income than the world's Communists ever dreamed of doing. Every time the Immigration Socialists double the population of the USA through immigration, they cut your share of "public property" in half. It's YOUR property, but the 'U.S.' Chamber of Communists treats it as if it belongs to the world or is theirs to give away.

"Young, pragmatic, Hispanic, just what GOP needs"

So naturally, there's only one entry on a Google News search, and guess whose it is?
Widening the search with more general terms still yields no result--although we do see DHS OIG assigned a higher priority and had time to complete a report on the Secret Service prostitution scandal, even if they don't share the results on their website.
Here's the thing: Mike Vanderboegh and I can't do this by ourselves because we're just not big enough to get the stories noticed with any reliable frequency. I know we've had a few media opportunities, but comparatively, our pond is small. That's we we rely on our regular readers--those who perceive they get a regular value from our work--to help amplify our voices and spread the word. I'm asking you to do that now.
Please share this link to yesterday's development with everyone you think will care, via emails, via social media, and especially share it with news websites, challenging them to do their own investigation.
Regular readers, please do it now. Even if you don't think anything will come of it, I'm asking you to take a minute and do it anyway, because I think it might be.

Homeland Security Inspector General’s report on Fast and Furious still unfiled
A footnote in the report following that revelation then explains “The ICE agent who was assigned to ATF’s Group VII declined our request for a voluntary interview.”Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes when it comes to stonewalling on Fast and Furious, Janet Napolitano is every bit the equal of Eric Holder.

Speculation on Holder replacement puts Deval Patrick on short list
Obama, of course, knows all this. It's why names like these would be foremost in his considerations and reflects that new-found "flexibility" he perceives is his as the restrictions that have always been his goal emerge from "under the radar." He's counting on a supportive media and an establishment Republican leadership that time and again through the years has equated appeasement with pragmatism. He's counting on an attorney general that will help him push whatever he wants through the courts and he's counting on Supreme Court replacements that will let him get away with it. [More]This evening's Gun Rights Examiner report looks at a Who's Who of gungrabbers being considered for the slot of top enforcer, and lays out what NRA must be prepared to do without prompting if this materializes--something they refused to do last time.

Media ‘gun control’ proponents argue there's no longer any need to fear NRA
“Profiles in apathy” has long been a theme expressed here, and should rightfully be considered as great an enemy of freedom as the most rabid of gun-grabbers. That gun owners must organize and pool their strength together is a given, and that so many ignore the call to muster and instead draw their curtains while others march to the green does more to give aid and comfort to their attackers than anything. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary notes a perception of vulnerability that's not altogether misplaced.

In Other Words, Because He's a Typical Establishment Republican
Romney lost because he refused to provide an alternative to any of this for fear of being labelled a warmonger, flint-heart or social reactionary. He refused to engage with any of the issues that made this Presidential election so truly momentous. Up against the bullying of the totalitarian left, he ran for cover. He played safe, and as a result only advertised his own weakness and dishonesty. Well, voters can smell inconsistency from a mile away; they call it untrustworthiness, and they are right. [More]Ayup:
So Romney pursued a tepid and uninspiring strategy easy for attack by the left, which conversely played a brilliantly dirty game by ginning up resentment many in the Democrat base feel toward “the rich” in general and Northeast capital investment elites in particular. It also meant Romney ducked addressing red meat visceral issues that would put fire in the belly of supporters—while many felt obliged to hold their noses and vote for him as the "lesser evil," that did not, and could not, translate into the type of enthusiastic commitments needed to win a championship.

Holder exit would empty tank on Fast and Furious investigation
Once Holder is gone, so will go any chance for political gain, plus Republicans know they’d be painted as bullies in some corners and racists in others if they dared go after him (some have been doing that all along). It just wouldn’t be worth it to them, especially since a reinvigorated Obama is confident that should the trail get too close he retains the pardon option, knowing the media and constituency that returned him to power would back him to the hilt. [More]Today's second Gun Rights Examiner offering looks at a great escape in the making.

[More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner election postmortem faces an outrageous and painful reality. No one wishes more than me it were not so. It is what it is.
About Those UN Treaties
Received via email in response to yesterday's GRE column:
Sure, if our "leaders" are inclined to observe the Constitution. Since when? They have been doing what they want all along and feel nothing but emboldened now, and the media will be backing them up every step of the way.
See the link I have at the end of my column about "Researchers." I put those there for a reason.
And bear in mind I specifically made a point to write: "But at this point, the likelihood of the treaty's passage is not the story" and then went on to explain what is.
My column isn't so much about the ATT as it is about a storm heading our way due to a "more flexible" willingness to exercise power by an arrogant ruler bent on revenge and now feeling unrestrained.
It's wonderful to see forums discussing this. Just be careful to sort the hip shot opinions from the painstaking research.
David,
RE: A likely UN gun treaty, isn't this true regarding implementation and enforcement?
"It's good to remember that:
1. Any treaty must be approved by a two-thirds vote of the Senate before the Presidentere's signature becomes effective.
2. Treaties (especially UN treaties) are not self-enforcing. They do not become law within a nation. To be enforced within the US a statute would have to be passed.
3. Treaties do not alter the Constitution. Both the House and the Senate would have to pass a bill for a statute which enforces the treaty to become law.
4. Because the treaty would not alter the Constitution, any statute passed for the purpose of enforcing it must comply with the Constitution and the Amendments to the Constitution."

Victorious Obama rockets back onto ‘gun control’ radar with UN arms treaty
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes that was quick. This isn't even the column I wanted to write today, but it kind of shoved its way to the front of the pile.More likely this is an in-your-face to “the gun lobby,” and a bellwether for things to come—all those things anti-gun opinion shapers ridiculed as paranoia back when that served the agenda. Look for them now to ignore past protestations and focus on whatever “gun control” proposals the administration puts forward, be they bills the president will want Congress to advance or, barring that, whatever he thinks he can get away with by executive order or ATF ruling.

“At this point, it’s unclear what the motive was. We’re looking at a variety of possibilities. One of them is an obvious robbery.

We're the Only Ones PO'd Enough
"I said really, he is 3 years old, and he said it doesn't matter," said Dillan's grandmother, Jennifer Warden. "[He said] It is public urination. I said we are on our property and he said it's in public view."[More]As is typical more often than not, we know the name of the mom and the grandmother, and we even know the name of the three-year-old, but the the name of the badged pissant spraying all over those he has been given power over is somehow a state secret the Authorized Urinalists dare not divulge. At least it looks like the mayor and chief ended up reversing things as far as the ticket goes--but here's the thing: Not only is their unfixed dog out there throwing his authoritah around and bullying the people he's supposed to be serving, his "courtesy" of writing a $2,500 fine we learn about in the first link turns out to be utterly without merit under state law.
Protection of public employees being what it is these days, things are probably set up so they can't fire Barney Fife outright, but I'd say the public has a right to know who this menace to society is, and see what other examples of abuse they can pin on him--surely this can't be the first time he's whizzed on a citizen. At the least, people ought to be able to simulate taking a leak every time he passes by, and then point and laugh at the silly sumbich.

How to Reply
So I'm giving it some thought on how to reply. Suggestions? [More]Yeah, I have a suggestion. Present the mall manager with a Gun Surrender Protection Contract, adapted from the one I designed to use at "buybacks":
