Rick Siegel Prespectives on Freedom and Liberty

Czar Nicolas Sarkozy has won a small victory in getting the Burka and veil banned from use in France.

It was only a year ago that Sarkozy, the small Napoleonic figure heading the French State, has worked endlessly to get the Muslim woman and those whose choice is to be conservative to embrace what he claims is the French way.

One has to only look at Slick Nicks wife, Carla Bruni Sarkozy, to see what is seen as French sensibility and wonder.

Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn has exposed the silent cover-up of pedophile priests by the current pope.

In a surprise confession Schoenborn told Austrian television that the current Pope was convinced any investigation into sexual allegations against the church would be bad publicity for the cult. Schoenborn was heard stating "I can still remember the moment when Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) sadly told me that the other camp had asserted itself" ending the investigations into any pedophilic abuse by priests.

It is a story reminiscent of David and Goliath, the people of Iceland stand where the people of the world succumbed to their governments financial give away to their favorite banks. Polls in the USA showed over 70 percent of the people were adamantly against giving private business bailouts.

The Obama government is trying to pass, as a "Health Bill," laws that contain nothing about health and everything about mandatory insurance. It is a farce to claim mandatory insurance covering 40,000,000 uninsured Americans and illegal immigrants will bring better or more affordable health care to the people.

The election fraud in Afghanistan is only the tip of the iceberg as the US and UN sponsored elections failed in this tribal nation.

The upcoming G20 meeting in Pittsburg will see the ever-arrogant Nic Sarkozy butt heads with Obama. Sarkozy has already made it clear he will walk out on the meeting if the members do not agree to control the paychecks of private industry. Sarkozy wants to start State control of pay with bank and investment corporations and thinks the State should set rates of pay.

Nicolas Sarkozy, the man who would be king, is outdone himself with his recent threat to Czech Republic president to sign the Lisbon Treaty or face “consequences” following a “yes” vote fixed in the upcoming Irish second forced referendum. The Irish have been told to vote right this time or face consequences also. Is there no shame to these royalists?

Citigroup is about to get an $11 Billion dollar windfall from the backs of taxpayers. US citizens will accept an $11 billion dollar loss when government sells their stock in the next weeks. All it takes to figure it out is a bit of simple math based on news reports that contradict the loss claiming it is profit.

Obama is trying to pass a health bill and the debate is fast and furious. There is no end to the debate and all sides seem to have different stories, themes, agendas, and lies from truth cannot be separated. There is a reason to this madness.

Will the Irish fall to the fallacies of Royalty?

With the repackaging of the EU Constitution into the Lisbon Treaty came the dictate that popular vote would no longer take place after the public trouncing it took as a Constitution. But one bastion Republic held out that anything to do with the sovereign act of making laws must be held up to public referendum. That was the Republic of Ireland. Ireland rejected the Lisbon Treaty handily just as the French and Dutch had when people were allowed a say.
