Remember, I am from So Cal! And I can tell you that UC Santa Cruz is a freak show. They do not have letter grades. Their mascot is a banana slug. And now add J. Patrick Bedell on their honor roll!

Good points, esp. about Reagan’s admiration for Mises and Hayek. The Hot Air community, Patterico, et al., are having a field day on the fact that they can *finally* now expel libertarians/libertarian-leaners from the conservative movement.

@JohnS:

Are they really? Have they stooped so low they must play Charles Johnson games?

If this is considered political discourse, we’re screwed.

I’m an Old Right conservative (libertarian today) because that’s who my grandparents were, and they were far more virtuous and wiser than any mainstream pundit I’ve ever read or heard in my entire life … none of which deserve to even shine their lowly blue-collar shoes.

If these games are what it means to be conservative, count me out! Actually, count me as an enemy.

Quoting Reuters… then Animal House. Hence, Stacy McCain.

Like J. Patrick Bedell, I live in Hollister, California and went to San Jose State. You see, there IS a connection!

I tried driving over to the address listed on his voter registration, and found that he lived in the Ridgemark Golf & Country Club, in a gated community. There was a guard shack preventing me from finishing my journey. I decided not to use the Bedell Option to enter, and went home instead.

One more connection! Like Bedell, my son was a UC Santa Cruz Banana Slug. He graduated in 2003 and now works for AIG. Someone contact the media!

I will be watching in the coming days to see what conservatives try to link this nutjob to traditional conservatism.

Because he mentions LvMI, I bet several do it.

Funny!

Did you happen to notice that the party on Bedell’s voter registration was Democrat. Zombie disects the ‘blame game’ of the MSM. How many Tea Partiers or conservatives…

- Shoot at the Pentagon and hate the military?
- Are registered Democrats?
- Hate George Bush and the whole Bush family?
- Think 9/11 was perpetrated not by Muslims but by Republicans?
- Grow and smoke marijuana?
- Read left-wing anti-Bush books?
- Are anti-war?
- Talk about “economic justice”?
- Think the Vietnam War and the Iraq War were not merely mistakes but were part of a government conspiracy?
- diagnosed as clinically insane.

All I know is that,aside from alledged Pentagon shooter John Bedell,
that Ludwig Von Mises’ biggest fans are fascists indeed such as James
Dale Davidson founder of Steve Forbes’ National Taxpayers Union near
the SEC headquarters in Alexandria,Virginia as well as newsmax.con
that includes the British fascist Lord William Rees-Mogg,deceased
wingnut General Al Haig,et.al. and Agora Inc,Baltimore(and world wide
internet) penny stock promoting and money laundering scumbags Bill
Bonner,Lila Rajiva,Porter Stansberry,Lard William Rees-Mogg,and CIA
‘economist’ and
Columbia University parasite Mark Skousen of the Nevada Fraud ‘Freedom
Fest’ et.al..Their corrupt group also includes Texas Republican
wingnut and womens rights denier Ron Paul who lied to the SEC about
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac AND THEIR SLEEZY PENNY STOCKS being ‘naked
shorted’ for them .
All these Lew RockWell-ian parasites are Misesians which certainly in
itself doesn’t say anything good about Ludwig Von Mises.Maybe Mises
wasn’t a crook,pseudo-intellectual or CIA scumbag but his admirers at
present certainly are.

John Bedell and Ludwig von Mises
By David Weigel 3/5/10 3:39 PM ThinkProgress points to a strange item
on the Bazpedia page of Pentagon metro shooter John Patrick Bedell,
buried below the incomprehensible kookery (”I have posted the image to
the right in order to illustrate the use of cannabis as a monetary
system using digital financial instruments“) and a brief appreciation
of libertarian economist Ludwig von Mises.

Another interesting relation of John Bedell, or at least of his father who has the same name, is the fact that he runs a FINRA approved stock dealing company in Hollister called SagePoint.And it appears AIG scumbags are now hiding behind that name after having dirtied their own.

AIGFA to Re-Brand – Will Now be SagePoint

AIG announced that AIG Financial Advisors is being re-branded (changing its name) to SagePoint Financial. Clearly they are trying to distance themselves from the negative brand image that the mother-ship, AIG, is enjoying at the moment. AIGFA is the second largest of the three B/D’s in the AIG Advisor Group. The other two being Royal Alliance and FSC – who, conveniently, are not tainted at the moment with the AIG brand name……..

I don’t know either if the father John Bedell of Hollister is related to Jeff Bedell of Sacramento but their businesses seem to be similar including AIG and it appears SagePoint Financial connections.I wonder if they have an Agora Inc connection as well ? James Dale Davidson’s and Bill Bonner’s Agora Inc. have fraudulent business scams around the world and California is no exception.After the Goldcor fraud with its Costa Rica connections in the 1980′s,Goldcor’s name was changed to Oxford Club under the corporate umbrella of Jim Dale Davidson’s and Bill Bonner’s and Lord William Rees-Mogg’s Agora Inc..
It has been rumored that Agora Inc is involved with U.S.AID in some sort of debt
swap schemes in Latin America.Is this true or is it another ‘Agora’? I’m not from the Washington,D.C. area and so not up to the low downs and dirtes there some of you might be aware of.

Good to know about that.It’s really informative!

your an asshole tony
