Politics of Freedom Update - March 2nd thru March 8th




Ron Paul 2012 Podcast show

Summary: The major news this week was Senator Rand Paul's marathon filibuster on the floor of the Senate. This update will cover some of that, but there will be much more specific filibuster coverage to come. The automatic sequester 'cuts' finally went into effect this week, and yet the sky has not fallen! Yet, it seems clear that the administration intends to make the pain felt in very visible ways. Despite the cuts in the rate of government growth, the state continues to push aside the rights of the people at every opportunity. As like-minded patriots try and inform one another, the other side is still touting the threat of homegrown terrorists and anti-government extremists. On the Ron Paul front, Dr. Paul visited George Washington University on Monday (no audio/video available thus far) and had his first speaking engagement outside of the United States (at least as long as I have been doing this podcast) at the Manning Conference in Ottawa.
