[response to "pro-choice" meme insisting abortion is not murder via FB pro-life group]
I'm sure the Nazis didn't see gas chambers as murder either. You can't reason with fanatics; they can't veto the truth, even as they deny reality.
[responding in IPI's FB post opposing gas mileage tax. In fairness to IPI's objection, the Illinois Democrats are not talking eliminating fuel taxes.]
It depends on the details, but even we libertarians find mileage-based user fees fairer than the status quo. https://www.cato.org/.../comme.../pay-roads-bridges-mile-fee
I bet Deep-MAGA deliberately planted "lodestar" in his piece just to make Trump think it was Pence, diverting attention from his real identity.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 6, 2018
Trump was paranoid before Deep-MAGA wrote a column for the NYT. Notice his middle-school reaction: I don't think you have a source; I double-dog dare you to reveal Deep-MAGA. You better do it, damn it! Because saying something bad about me violates national security. #NYTimesOpEd— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 6, 2018
Pope Francis knows his priorities, demanding political action to solve the issue of plastics in the oceans. It's good that he has time for this, vs. something he has more control of, like resolving the issue of sexual predators among the clergy or declining church attendance.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 5, 2018
Come on! None of us in fifth or sixth grade ever acted like Trump does. We were more mature. Mattis— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 4, 2018

Tweet of the Day: Ms. Abdallah reminds us how the hypocritical ex-President, the worst POTUS in recent American history, the Nobel Peace prize winner with a pen and a phone who enlarged the imperial Presidency, pretends to lecture us about autocracy. pic.twitter.com/uAsw7R35Cw— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 4, 2018
Tom DiLorenzo, one of my favorite economists, pens a splendid essay decisively refuting union and their corrupt political whores, claiming credit for the benefits made possible by capitalism, including leisure and no child labor. https://t.co/zjlieKEPyS— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 4, 2018
It's time to boycott Nike when they promote activism over sport. I will not buy any Nike product.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 4, 2018
Twitter has also engaged in some sort of censorship. I wrote a Tweet debunking the alleged labor benefits won by unions and their political whores to the #LaborDay hashtag. It got a negligible number of impressions, my least for the day.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 4, 2018
Facebook seems to be engaging in PC censorship. It brags it's spending bucks against interference in the elections. Today I've run into issues just liking posts from John Stossel and Being Libertarian. Just a reminder the Libertarian Party won 3% of the national vote in 2016.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
All forms of populism, right-wing as well as left-wing, are vile. Bannon is yesterday's news and irrelevant. The hypocritical leftist PC trolls are giving the likes of Bannon all the attention and relevance he craves. "Steve Bannon"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
You think I'm going to buy Nike shoes, knowing that my money will go to paying off an unemployed, washed-up, second-string quarterback who is better known for his protest gimmick than his achievements on the field ? HELL NO! "Colin Kaepernick"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
On this day, let us remember that the minimum wage was established primarily as Northern protectionism against lower-cost Southern mills employing blacks. As Cato Institute points out, only about 3% earn minimum wage, and 80% of PhD economists believe the minimum wage costs jobs.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
Meme of the day: private organizations can build sophisticated computer chips and the vehicles that drive on roads, but paving roads requires govt expertise. Never mind thousands of miles of private roads were built before government created its monopoly during the auto age. pic.twitter.com/djZwseoAa2— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
Once again, you'll see unions and their corrupt, bought political whores claim dubious victories. Henry Ford, for instance, offered many claimed benefits in a competitive labor market, not because of unions and government. #LaborDay— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
Well, if Murphy Brown can return to the network schedule after a long hiatus, so can Kerry. Not many have won the Presidency after a defeat. Grover Cleveland did it, but Kerry is no Cleveland. "John F. Kerry"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
Jack Kennedy set the iconic goal of landing a man on the moon--something America achieved within a decade. Political correctness, dismissing the whole international competition of firsts in outer space, is simply a state of denial. This was an American achievement.

Trumpkins and Palin cultists are unhappy their heroes were not invited to McCain's funeral. Good. Both political whores had taken recent unprovoked shots. Palin played victim when McCain expressed regrets at not running with Lieberman in 2008. Palin was not qualified to be POTUS.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 3, 2018
It's time to outlaw public sector unions.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) September 2, 2018
From IPI: "According to Peoria City Manager Patrick Urich, 85% of the city’s property tax revenue currently goes to pensions, rather than services."
