Anthony Mucciolo posted an update in the group Purchase Area KY LIBERTEA PARTY For those who hold out hope for real change, this will be well worth your reading, and sharing. We need a New Revitalized Republican Party, and every conservative and libertarian who aspire to run for the Congress and the Senate in 2014 will most likely defeat their counterparts if they include all or most of these positions in their platform. The people want us to run a positive campaign – telling them what we stand for, and what we will do to change the future of America – rather than lambasting our opponents. WE are a people desirous of a limited federal government, but we need a definitive plan: For example, what is our “Plan for reducing the tax burden?” We can advance a plan advocating these first 5 positions:

1. financial responsibility and accountability insuring that all investments made with tax payer funds be examined and decided on the basis of a sound business plan, adequate capital investment of its partners and stock holders, and the expectation of long-term success; and further, that all profits, interest, earnings on property and securities from whatsoever source are proportioned back to the states and the taxpayers;

2. demanding and receiving from all nations to whom we provide security, payment for the expenses incurred by our government and its taxpayers to furnish them with our military personnel, equipment, ordinance, and safe quarters while on their lands; and to further insure the paid medical care of all wounded in action both short term and permanent, coupled with a sustainable monthly allowance to support their families, and paying a delegated amount to the families of all killed in action, or as a result of being stationed on their land;

3. imposing work demands upon all prisoners sentenced to incarceration for more than 90 days, to provide for their detention expenses, daily necessities, and to provide for the welfare of their dependents; actions that will greatly diminish the tax burden on the American people;

4. taxation on the purchase and consumption of goods rather than personal or business incomes, a principle supported by Alexander Hamilton in the 14th Federalist paper;

5. eliminate the Department of Education and restore to the states their proper right to exercise full oversight and controls over the education and curricula of all educational institutions within its jurisdictions;

6. restoration of religious expressions and practice without hindrance;

7. the right to bear arms in every city and state in the union for our self protection without unnecessary restraint and limitation, for the purpose of securing our persons and property from both foreign and domestic terrorism and threats; excepting only the right to disarm those who are, or become, members of known and recognized terrorist groups and gangs;

8. the security as before provided for all generations in the Bill of Rights, and a government transparent to, and accountable to, the people and Congress of the United States.

9. that all laws, regulations, taxes, and restrictions imposed on the citizens must be equally obligatory and enforceable on every member and employee of the federal government and its assigns without exception.

These policy positions are firmly embodied in the duties, obligations, and responsibilities inherent in the laws of fiduciary responsibility and trusteeship which was made incumbent upon the federal government when our forefathers “vested” certain cherished financial trusts, invaluable sovereign and sacred rights, and other “treasures” of great value to the states, they placed under its protections; whose duty it is to protect, defend, and secure these certain and valued rights and trusts committed to them and enumerated in the document we refer to as the Constitution of the United States.

Therefore, I submit to the peace-loving people of this district, and this state that no one entrenched in the foxholes of government domination is going to “give back” the rights they have usurped for their own enrichment. IT BECOMES THEREFORE, ENCUMBENT UPON US, the Common People, TO REPLACE those in the Congress and Senate who have not left their secure foxholes, have not condemned the usurpation of the people’s rights and liberties, have not attempted to restrain the appropriation of additional powers from the states, and have not taken steps to limit the powers of the government, nor have begun to initiate action to restore our sacred rights, even those who have enriched themselves at the expense of the governed.
Of particular mention, we must examine the record of those who profess themselves to be conservative Republicans, and determine if they have STOOD THEIR GROUND in DEFIANCE of these illegal and unconstitutional acts, or caved in to the demands of this administration to further encroach upon and usurp our rights; and if it be determined they have not stood their ground in defense of the sacred trust committed to their keeping, THEY MUST, of NECESSITY, ALSO BE RESPLACED.

I am advocating for the election of individuals committed to supporting and defending the principles and the sacred confidence originally vested by our forefathers in the federal government: individuals who will engage in a strong, determined, yet peaceable means of restoring our government to its proper place of strength in matters foreign and domestic.

Of grave importance, they must immediately begin to create a stable environment aimed at alleviating the fears of the electorate who have begun to question the government’s loyalty to uphold the sacred fiduciary trust delegated to it by the people.

It is reported that our government is preparing the military and police for a national revolt. If this is true, I submit that the fear and apprehension within the hearts of Americans losing hope of a bright and successful future for themselves and their children is well documented by the administration. Otherwise, why the preparation? But should a government wary of revolt prepare to kill its own citizens instead of making the changes necessary to promote the peace and general welfare of its citizens? Is our government going to mimic the insufferable tragedies upon us that King Assad of Syria, is waging against his own people -choosing to kill his own people rather than give way to progressive change? Is this the future we envision for ourselves and our loved ones?

Revolution may be at our doorsteps, but do we welcome it? Do we support an uprising that will devastate our nation and bring death and misery to its citizens; or do we make every attempt to deter violence and put the people at rest? We must breathe the fresh air of a legitimate hope and change policy in an attempt to restore the hope that our government will be restored. That our policies will bring about economic recovery and stability, a definite increase in employment opportunities, lower taxes, and establishing the bond of unity between a people that have been so divided against each other. This is the only way that I know of to avoid the much anticipated bloodshed.

Once again, the weight and burden is upon us, the people, to vote the opportunists out of office and to vote those among us into office who share our core values and virtues, and who desire the blessings of God upon our nation and our children to the third and fourth generations of those who believe in Him.
I have presented a peaceable plan of action that will not advance the violence the government is anticipating. As Congressman Paul Ryan was known to say many times, “WE CAN DO THIS!”

A major portion of this text was taken from a speech I gave before a Republican assembly when I ran for Congress in 1986. It was a message out of time, and will undoubtedly have a far greater influence if I were to give it today. Nevertheless, it is a positive message, and while we may make certain statements to point out the actions of those in government, we must refrain from using names and deliberate personal attacks. This is what we all desire, “Tell me what YOU are going to do to make a difference – We already know what the other isn’t doing, or DID!”

I would be more than honored to see the essence of this message being proclaimed by every candidate running for office in 2014, because I believe this message is timely, impossible to contradict or successfully dispute, and I am convinced if it is included in the platform of the New Revitalized Republican Party, the true Party of the People, it will result in many victories for Conservative Christians, Friends of Israel, and people of virtue of all faiths. If called upon, I would be honored to present this message personally before the citizens of your communities. But, it is far more important, of grave importance, to get this message into the hands of those who would be faithful candidates and elected officials for federal office in 2014. If you believe this is the message for today, then spread the word as quickly and with as much energy as you possess. Let this be our charge, the conviction of our hearts, “We must have the majority in the Senate and in the House!”

Thank you and God bless all your efforts and successes.

Randy Newman posted an update in the group Purchase Area KY LIBERTEA PARTY For three years the elite has felt the ground move below them as the grassroots grew stronger. Now that the Volcano is upon them they will close up in their secret room and wait for the tide against them to subside. We must have the fortitude to not vote for any republicans as a vote against a democrat it accomplishes nothing. As a non vote it speaks volumes.

Randy Newman posted an update in the group Purchase Area KY TEA Party Patriots 2016 THE TEA PARTY PLAN
We all know that 3 out of ten support the establishment, Unfortunately the TEA Party with all its power and energy, had too many candidates. In 2016 we need one and only one TEA PARTY Candidate against the ESTABLISHMENT Candidate, not 5 wooing us, it split the vote almost by design.
These next 4 years we have to pick him or her have them ready and financed for the run at the ESTABLISHMENT Rinos. We all knew Romney was ordained by the ESTABLISHMENT. RINOs are generally progressive. We need one strong conservative CANDIDATE for 2016. as well as Senators to challenge the RINOs in The Senate, We have to be READY
Even if Romney wins we have to be prepared to challenge the ESTABLISHMENT head to head, one on one, bare knuckles, one walks out, fight to the finish, This is about the heart and soul of the Republican Party.

Randy Newman posted an update in the group Purchase Area KY TEA Party ThoriumEnergyInstitute
The Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor
The modern concept of the Liquid-Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR) uses
uranium and thorium dissolved in fluoride salts of lithium and beryllium. These
salts are chemically stable, impervious to radiation damage, and non-corrosive to
the vessels that contain them. Because of their ability to tolerate heavy radiation,
excellent temperature properties, minimal fuel loading requirements (i.e., easy of
continual refueling) and other inherent factors, LFTR cores can be made much
smaller than a typical light water reactor (LWR). In fact, liquid salt reactors, and
LFTRs specifically, are listed as an unfunded part of the U.S. Department of
Energy’s Generation-4 Nuclear Solution Plan. The Advantages
Some of the many advantages of the LFTR system over other nuclear reactor
designs are outlined below. While LWRs can produce U233 from thorium, they
will not provide the various advantages outlined below, because of their use of
thorium in solid form. It is the unique combination of the thorium cycle and the
liquid fluoride reactor that grants all of the following advantages only from the
LFTR system.
Safety–LFTRs are designed to take advantage of the physics of the thorium cycle
for optimum safety. The fluid in the core is not pressurized, thus eliminating the
driving force of radiation release in conventional approaches. The LFTR reactor
cannot melt down because of a runaway reaction or other nuclear reactivity
accidents (such as at Chernobyl), because any increase in the reactor’s operating
temperature results in a reduction of reactor power, thus stabilizing the reactor
without the need for human intervention. Further, the reactor is designed with a
salt plug drain in the bottom of the core vessel. If the fluid gets too hot or for any
other reason including power failures, the plug naturally melts, and the fluid
dumps into a passively cooled containment vessel where decay heat is removed.
This feature prevents any Three Mile Island-type accidents or radiation releases
due to accident or sabotage and provides a convenient means to shut down and
restart the system quickly and easily.
Proliferation Resistance–For all practical purposes, U233 is worthless as a nuclear
weapons material, and indeed no nation has attempted to weaponize U233 because
of the abundance of difficulties. U233 is considered an unsuitable choice for
nuclear weapons material because whenever U233 is generated, uranium-232
(U232) contamination inevitably occurs. U232 rapidly decays into other elements,
including thallium-208, a hard-gamma-ray emitter whose signature is easily
detectable. The hard gamma rays from thallium-208 cause ionization of materials
destroying the explosives and electronics of a nuclear weapon, and heavy lead
shielding is required to protect personnel assembling the warhead. It is possible to
generate U233 with little U232 contamination using specialized reactors (such as
at the Hanford Site), but not with an LFTR. Any attempt to increase production of
U233 in an LFTR reactor will generate U232 contamination and any attempt to
steal quantities of U233 results in the reactor shutting down.
Energy Production–Because nearly all of the thorium is used up in an LFTR
(versus only about 0.7% of uranium mined for an LWR), the reactor achieves high
energy production per metric ton of fuel ore, on the order of 300 times the output
of a typical uranium LWR. The LFTR allows much higher operating temperatures
than does a typical LWR therefore a higher thermodynamic efficiency. The turbine
system believed best suited for its operation is a triple-reheat closed-cycle helium
turbine system, which should convert 50% of the reactor heat into electricity
compared to today’s steam cycle (~25% to 33%). This efficiency gain translates to
about 4.11 million barrels of crude oil equivalent per year more than that generated
by a steam system. Capital costs are lower due to smaller reactor & turbomachinery
size, low reactor pressures and minimal redundant safety systems. The
greater energy production capability of LFTRs means we estimate the cost for
electricity from a LFTR plant could be 25% to over 50% less than that from a
LWR.
Waste–In theory, LFTRs would produce far less waste along their entire process
chain, from ore extraction to nuclear waste storage, than LWRs. A LFTR power
plant would generate 4,000 times less mining waste (solids and liquids of similar
character to those in uranium mining) and would generate 1,000 to 10,000 times
less nuclear waste than an LWR. Additionally, because LFTR burns all of its
nuclear fuel, the majority of the waste products (83%) are safe within 10 years,
and the remaining waste products (17%) need to be stored in geological isolation
for only about 300 years (compared to 10,000 years or more for LWR waste).
Additionally, the LFTR can be used to ”burn down” waste from an LWR (nearly
the entirety of the United States’ nuclear waste stockpile) into the standard waste
products of an LFTR, so long-term storage of nuclear waste would no longer be
needed.
Supply–Thorium is abundant in the Earth’s crust. It is the 36th most plentiful
element in the crust–four times as common as uranium and 5,000 times as
plentiful as gold. According to the U.S. Geological Survey’s 2006 Mineral
Yearbook, the United States is estimated to have 300,000 tons of thorium reserves
(about 20% of the world’s supply), more than half of which is easily extractable.
Considering only the readily accessible portion, this national resource translates to
nearly 1 trillion barrels of crude oil equivalent–five times the entire oil reserves of
Saudi Arabia. In addition to the naturally occurring reserves, the United States
currently has 3,200 metric tons of processed thorium nitrate buried in the Nevada
desert. That supply is roughly equivalent to 21 billion barrels of crude oil
equivalent when used in an LFTR with only minimal processing effort.
Secondary Products–Because an LFTR is so energy dense, the electricity and
excess heat from the reactor can be used to fuel other industries beyond electricity
production, including economical desalinization of water, cracking of hydrogen
from water or hydrocarbons, generation of ammonia for fertilizer and fuel cells,
and extraction of hydrocarbons from oil shale and tar sands. Additionally, the
nuclear waste products from the LFTR include stable rhodium and ruthenium, rare
elements needed in modern electronics; technetium-99, which offers great promise
as a catalyst similar to platinum; iodine-131 and cesium-137 for medical
applications; strontium-90 for radioisotope power; and xenon, used in commercial
products and industrial processes. The Risks
While LFTRs offer much promise, several economic and engineering issues need
to be addressed before this technology can become a reality.
Thorium as a Fuel–Thorium has never actually been continually processed for fuel
in a fully operational liquid fluoride reactor. The MSRE used U233 as a fuel, but
the U233 was generated in another reactor. A follow-on reactor design was
planned to do the full-system tests, which the MSRE was too cost-constrained to
perform, but it was never funded. A prototype reactor based on the ORNL design
work would need to be built and the continuous thorium cycle processing
validated as the fuel source in an operational LFTR.
Turbine System–The gas turbo-machinery is similar engineering to the welldeveloped
open-cycle turbine (e.g., jet aircraft engine). However, this kind of
closed-cycle electric generation system has never been built. A new triple-reheat
closed-cycle Brayton system would need to be built and tested along with the
LFTR. However, this is a minimal engineering risk in obtaining the overall
efficiency of the electricity generation system. If the close cycle turbine system
proves not to be economically viable, a steam system can be used.
Cost of Thorium–The price of thorium ore is difficult to quantify. On one hand,
some will argue that it is expensive, citing the lack of demand and the
consequently limited market supply. On the other hand, the case can be made that
thorium is nearly worthless in light of the U.S. government’s decision to
essentially ”throw away” 3,200 metric tons of processed thorium by burying it in
the Nevada desert. We cannot predict how the price of thorium would be affected
if the world’s thorium reserves were exploited for use in LFTRs. However,
thorium does not incur a cost of enrichment as uranium does, mostly due to the
fact that natural thorium occurs only in one isotope. We believe that if the world’s
thorium supplies were exploited for energy, its price would drop to be comparable
to–or even lower than–current uranium ore prices.
Cost of Thorium Reactors–Even though a full-scale LFTR has never been built,
we expect the lifecycle cost of thorium reactors could be at least 30% to 50% less
than equivalent-power uranium-based LWRs. Nevertheless, the engineering,
fabrication and licensing of any energy-dense endeavourer is never certain and
subject to many outside factors. Because of the various advantages afforded by the
LFTR technology, we expect there will be a reduced regulatory burden, which
would lessen costs and accelerate startups. For full-scale construction of LFTRs,
factory-built modular construction can be used to provide scalable reactors from
100-kilowatt to multi-gigawatt production. This flexibility in site location
eliminates the largest risk facing new U.S. commercial power plants today.
Further, LFTRs have operational cost advantages over both types of reactors
currently licensed. Unlike pressurized water reactors, LFTRs will not have to be
shut down for extensive periods for refueling. Unlike boiling water reactors,
LFTRs do not radioactively contaminate the turbines used for electrical
generation, which should translate into significantly reduced operational and
maintenance costs for this portion of the power plant and reduced amounts of lowlevel
waste for end-of-life disposal.

Randy Newman posted an update in the group Purchase Area KY TEA Party Today's brain teaser: how do elections where one party is guaranteed to win actually result in more moderate candidates?

Answer: when there's a jungle primary where all candidates from every party run against each other and the top 2 face off in the general election. Because of California's new election law, Tuesday's primary means that there are going to be 18 Congressional races in November that feature a Democrat vs another Democrat, and 9 similar Republican matchups. Without this system, the Democrat or Republican would cruse to victory and ignore their constituents. But when there's an intraparty race, the votes of the minority party actually matter. Here's how:

If there are two candidates--one extreme and one moderate--the majority party will split the vote, and the minority party will support the moderate candidate, meaning he or she wins.

"Like" this if you support California's new election system, and share this if you think it's a great way to get moderates elected to Congress.
