Laigle’s Forum

I love what JBS did with the graphics on my column “FDR, Obama and bloodletting.” Check out “The Keyenesian Cure.” The picture tells it all!

By the way, it has been a pleasure to work with John Birch Society.

Here is some of what makes them different:

First, they are focused on educating people and do an excellent job of that.

Further, unlike other “conservative” groups, their members have an in-depth knowledge of the background, agenda and goals of what I call the International Left. They are keenly aware of the machinations of the international elite in the form of the CFR (Council on International Relations), the Bilderbergers, the Trilateral Commission and others. Like myself, they have therefore naturally taken an interest in the writings of Olavo De Carvalho regarding the international left.

In addition to many other informative and educational articles and materials, they also have an excellent downloadable article at their site by founder Robert Welch, which explains the difference between a republic and a democracy better than anything I have read elsewhere.

Interestingly, people who know and understand too much are the ones who are marginalized most in our society. This is in perfect keeping with what many know about the media, the education system, the universities and leftist politics and religion, as represented by the Democrats but also increasingly by the now left-leaning Republican Party. Just remember: if you let them marginalize others, who will be left to keep them from marginalizing you?

Below is my attempt to expose the causes of our deep ignorance of the mechanisms that are harming us most – while purporting to help us.

FDR, Obama and bloodletting

By Donald Hank

How long will it take for America to wake up and realize Keynesian economics (government-induced stimulation of the economy) doesn’t work?
First the bad news: Judging by past history, the restoration of common sense in government could take as long as 2400 years.
That’s how long it took medical science to abolish bloodletting, an intended cure for infectious diseases, which was first practiced in about the fifth century BC and persisted until the mid-1800s.
The theory was that diseases were caused by an imbalance in the “humors” (bodily fluids), but the effects were not beneficial. Not only did the lancet introduce infectious germs but the loss of blood weakened the patient, often leading to death. Yet doctors didn’t base their methods on results.
Human behavior is flawed. Our thinking is easily manipulated by the expectations of perceived authorities.
Even though millions of people witnessed the results of bloodletting, not enough noticed the lack of efficacy to bring about its abolition. I call this blindness the “respect effect.” Those who doubted the efficacy of bloodletting would never have dared say so because they would have been criticizing an untouchable group.

Wanna fire Donald Trump? Be our guest!

Yesterday’s Laigle’s Forum carried a challenge to Donald Trump to show that he doesn’t just pick on women, as he does routinely in his apprentice show, triumphantly saying “you’re fired” to some poor trembling little girl and thereby shattering her dreams.

I thought maybe he would have the guts to fire the dirt bag judge who called Miss California dirty foul names and drew a pornographic picture over her photo. But Trump wimped out.

Today’s interview on Fox and Friends confirms that he can’t stand up to anything male that is politically correct. While saying nice things about Miss CA, He refused to say that it is unfair to dock a contestant based on her beliefs. Can you believe that? In refusing to say that, Trump is in fact saying it is perfectly fair for his judges to dock contestants based on the judges’ leftist political views alone.

BTW, Trump laughed almost gleefully as he says this “controversy” will boost his ratings. Another helpless female sacrificed at the altar of ratings and Trump ego.

Listen to Trump’s spineless response here .

This grossly selfish, less than manly behavior is in keeping with Trump’s dumping on the investors in his Baja Resort, where he left a “big hole in the ground” after promising to develop beach front property, leaving the investors high and dry with their huge losses. The spineless wonder didn’t even apologize!

Trump is not a man of his word, he dumps on his friends, and he is just all about Trump.

Ok, Donald Trump has had it. Time to stop rewarding boorishness by buying his books, watching his show, buying his properties, gambling at his casinos, etc. Stop paying attention to him. Next time the pompous oaf shows up on my TV screen, he gets turned off and the sponsor gets a scathing letter or phone call from Yours Truly.

Donald Trump, you’re fired!

To sound off about Trump’s utter lack of spine in refusing to fire Perez Hilton or even admit that docking a contestant for their beliefs is unfair, or to say “Donald Trump, you’re fired!,” just email:

missUPR@missuniverse.com  

We also invite you to contact Fox and Friends at

and ask them why they let Trump get away with refusing to condemn the scumbag judge who smeared Miss California. They played softball with him and that is simply unacceptable.
