Rep. Charlie Rangel Introduces Bill To Draft EVERYONE!

As if it wasn't enough to impose new taxes on all Americans through mandatory Health Care, now the Liberals in Congress want their pound of flesh from you. Representative Charlie Rangel (D-NY) has introduced a new bill:
 
HR 5741 -

To require all persons in the United States between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform national service, either as a member of the uniformed services or in civilian service in furtherance of the national defense and homeland security, to authorize the induction of persons in the uniformed services during wartime to meet end-strength requirements of the uniformed services, and for other purposes.

Ladies and Gentlemen if you're between 18 and 42 years of age get ready to be drafted into government service whether you like it or not.  Gee, I ripped up my AARP card when they endorsed Obamacare, maybe I should have held onto it?

Hey NAACP, What Planet Are You Living On?

Recently the NAACP has voted for a resolution to denounce the Tea Parties as White Racists and gun toting violent groups.  Say WHAT?  Did anyone bother to tell the hundreds of thousands of Black Republicans and Conservatives?  Did anyone tell the National Black Republicans, AACONS (African-American Conservatives), the Hip Hop Republicans or the Fredrick Douglass Foundation?  What about the large number of Black Conservatives running for the Senate and Congress, such as Colonel West or Star Parker?

I doubt sincerely that one single member of the NAACP has ever attended a Tea Party, much less spoke in an equitable dialogue with a Tea Party organizer.  Yes, many of us are licensed gun owners, but that does not mean we will ever advocate violence, especially if based upon racial discrimination.





We can turn blue in the face reminding the NAACP that it was the Republican Party that was the party of abolitionists and civil rights.  But revisionists will always be deniers and refuse to see the truth.  As long as we hold the truth and our beliefs  in our hearts and depart it to our children then in time history will vindicate us and villify the destructive elements in our society.  Keep your faith strong, Patriots!

Heck, I can't be as eloquent as Wayne Bradley and he has a far better vantage point to argue with the NAACP.  So read his blog at "Conservative is Cool" and let him tell it like it is!

Thanks Wayne!  Keep up the good fight!

SAY WHAT??? Where Do We Go From Here?

Being out of touch for more than a week, then coming back to reality is a real "culture & political" shock.  I traveled to my parents Condo where I entered the caveman age!  Without TV, radio or the internet you enter a cocoon and feel all is still right with the world.  It has taken several days back home to try to catch up and I still think, I'm in the dark.  I have learned that in one week....

*The Black Panthers hate white people - Duh, we knew that back in the 1970's when they wanted to & tried to kill white people and cops back then.

*The Federal Government is suing a state over State Sovereignty versus Federal Authority - Bush II did that and won, I only hope that Obama loses & Arizona wins, this time!

*Lebron James wants to change teams - Who Cares! (Same for the World Soccer Cup!)

*The Deepwell Oil is still spilling - Finally Obama suspended the Jones Act over 60 some odd days later!  But, the Federal Government has still no real contribution and cohesiveness in the clean-up or repair efforts!

*Dems want to raise taxes - No Kidding

*Congress is still raising the deficit and there is no end in sight - BIG No Kidding!

*In the war on terror, our troops still are not being given the support or full tools to win and progressives still want to talk "time lines"!  So what is another dead soldier to them???  Bet not one of them have a family member in the line of fire, so what do they care!

*The Justice Department is failing to prosecute crime equably but will do so rather racially - White man beware!

*Unemployment is not decreasing & Immigration is still amok

*Liberals are still blaming Bush and Obama is still campaigning!  Big Surprise!!!

*President Obama is still bypassing the Constitution with appointments and Czars while adding more socialists to the government payroll. - DUH???

*President Obama still needs a teleprompter to speak clearly & coherently!

*Congress wants to regulate what we eat, read, write and defecate!  Well, I'll let them have the defecation freely!

It's going to be a long two more years............  I pray we can turn this around in 2012....... Here's to true Hope & Change Back!

God Bless America and help us heal!

Now You See Me, Now You Don't!

Wow, just what is the Obama Admin doing?  They have us running in so many directions it's making us dizzy.  And you now what?  As they send us off in one direction as they attack us from another & they found a way to succeed!


Using slight of hand they get us to focus on one main issue as they slide several others past us.  Guy's, this is not a card game, but a game of chess or backgammon where sub-plays are always in action.  We each must be able to multi-task and keep our eyes on all of the juggling balls:

Oil Spill in the Gulf
Iraq
Afghanistan
Pakistan
Employment
Budget
Immigration
Economy
Drugs
ETC - Shall I go on????  You can fill in the rest -

Don't let the MSM hoodwink you, nor Obama's people!  Let's keep holding their feet to the fire and not let any of this BS slip past!

Update

The primaries are over and the fight is on for November.  Where do we stand????As the line up gels, we must be vigilant! Are we ready????? I am!!!!!

WTF?! White House Plays While Americans Hold Their Breath!

Close to two months has passed since the Gulf Oil Spill and the Obama Administration has still taken only token action is this crisis.  So just what have they been doing? Vacationing, shopping and golfing in Chicago.  Filming a phony July 4th celebration.  Hosting a mega concert, topped by Paul McCarthy singing "Michelle".  Having a water fight on the lawn of the White House. Playing Beer Pong, a drunken beer game and completely missing the sobering disaster of the oil spill.

Now, our beer drinking Commander-In-Chief, rather than placing a call to the CEO of BP, calls the British Prime Minister and places a Beer - Lager bet over the US - Brit Soccer game.  When all else fails and the heat is on, throw a Beer Summit, have a drunken Beer Drinking Game or make a Beer Bet!  Maybe when shouldn't question President Obama's sanity, rather his sobriety!

As WWII Vets Wither, Obama Dithers!

I searched the Internet and newspapers for any homage paid to the courageous men who invaded the Normandy Beaches on June 6, 1944.  On that day over 10,000 men of the USA, England, France, Holland, Australia, Canada and many more nations paid the ultimate price of their life on those beaches and the the invasion of the inlands.  I ask you, where was our Commander-in-Chief on this 65th Anniversary?

He was at a party and filming of a fake July 4th Celebration for 2010.

http://biggovernment.com/jhoft/2010/06/06/barack-obama-ignores-d-day-anniversary-goes-to-theatre-party/

This was not the only reference to this debacle, more than 6 other reputable media web sites had independent reports that mirrored Andrew Breitbart's site.  I ask, how many times will our President demean our most honorable and courageous men and women of this nation?

Mr. President, please give our Military their full due!

Obama's Parade Rained On!

And the Lord looked down and was displeased with what he saw, for he opened the clouds and sent blistering rain and thunderous lightening upon the crowd.  The One, who claims falsely to be the "Chosen One" has forsaken his sacred duty on this  Memorial Day and his preordained homage to the "Tomb of the Unknown Soldier".  So thus the people were scattered and the Lord gave vengeance to the honorable fallen men and women of this Promised Land.

GOD Bless Our Vets!

We as Americans owe a great amount to the brave men and women who fought and gave their all to create and protect our Republic. Never forget those who we ask to serve on the battle front.  Today, and everyday, we must remind ourselves of their sacrifice and dedication to our nation, that too few honor.  Each and everyone of use must take a few moments, give homage and teach others the value of these gifts.

Our Founding Fathers gathered the everyday citizen to form an army that against all odds beat the British Empire.  The Revolutionary War relied upon citizen farmers and intellectuals to form a government and create an army.  Ordinary men, and yes some women came forward from some of the most common and most elite backgrounds to form these armies.

 
Across the New Nation heroic efforts were performed.  The most memorable being the deprivation at Valley Forge, with winters so brutal many men went without shoes in the snow.  Can we ever repay them?

Few mention those lost to British conscription, or to the Barbary War and the War of 1812.  Even fewer mention the vigorous debates in the years that followed concerning the issue of slavery and the Missouri Compromise.  Brave men and cowards led us into the Civil War.  Greed and altruism filled both sides, but the deprivation and courage of every soldier cannot be forgotten.


Need I remind you of the Spanish American War?  The sinking of The Maine?  A war famously depicted by Teddy Roosevelt's charge up San Juan Hill, but which few know the full story of men who endured cholera and horrid conditions.


World War I was suppose to be the war to end all wars.  It wasn't.  Men gave their lives and sanity in trench warfare that seem to last forever.  Can you imagine living years in a mud pit with no cell phone or TV?


When we thought we were safe, our government proved to be asleep on the switch and Americans came forward to fight once more in WWII.  Then came Korea, Vietnam and Desert Storm.  Need I mention 911which has led to Iraqi Freedom and Afghanistan.

We, as a people asked our military men and women to step into the breach: 
When liberty was threatened to fight the Revolutionary War,
When our sons where kidnapped in the Barbary Wars,
When our borders where violated in 1812,
When Mexico violated our border and we cried "Remember The Alamo!",
When Spain attempted to reclaim territory in the Spanish American War,
When WWI broke out,
When WWII broke out,
When Korean War erupted,
When Vietnam ripped the fabric of our society, still we asked,
To protect our allies in Desert Storm,
After 911, to unseat Saddam in Iraqi Freedom and fight terrorist in Afghanistan.

What will we ask of them tomorrow?

Military families give up everything, can you do that?  Can you stand years separated from loved ones, missing holidays, birthdays and even birth of children.  And we get pissed if our spouse misses an anniversary. how much more are they missing?  They have given us their all. 

Our government fails to give them equipment to help maintain their readiness and combat stance.  Yet, we still ask so much and they bravely make do.  How many generations of fighting men and women have tolerated our disdain and carelessness?  How much longer will we accept the abuse of our most heroic men and women?

Memorial Day is a sacred day.  As we enjoy our barbecues and pool parties we need to take a few moments. We need to bend our knees and give thanks to those who gave life and limb for our freedoms.  Today, they still fight, today they still sacrifice.

Last week, I was in Physical Therapy and I was brought to tears seeing a young Marine next to me.  Too polite to ask, where he was injured, it was obvious he was in Iraq or Afghanistan.  From the injuries and burns, I assumed a road side bomb, also known as an IUD.  As I did my mundane exercises the gentleman battled to regain control of his battered body.  At one point he mentioned to the Physical Therapist an he felt an "annoyance" in his arm.  A moment later, with tweezers, she picked a piece of shrapnel out of his wound in his arm that the Military Hospital missed.

What courage! What a Great American! We must not forget these brave heroes, please take a moment, not just today, but everyday to pause, remember and thank them for their service.  Whenever you see the American Flag, know it is the fighting men and women who have sacrificed their all to preserve the freedoms it represents and thank them.

God Bless Our Military & The USA!

Stop Finance Reform now!

As the stock market melts down once again, Congress and our President just don't get the picture.  Once again, the Senate creates a legislative nightmare of Finance Reform totaling more than 1700 pages.  Haven't these Senators, who feel they are far more superior in intellect than the average voter, learned from the Boondoggle called Health Care Reform?  We still don't fully understand what is in that debacle and day by day, we learn more and the picture just aint right! (I know, aint aint a word!)

What makes me really mad, everyone fought hard to put Scott Brown in Ted Kennedy's seat, and now he's turned his back on our voices and voted to bring this monstrosity to the floor.  No wonder why Harry Reid is crowing he has the votes to pass this act.  Thanks Scott!  Keep this up and there will be no second term, we promise you!

We need to step up our game and let our Senators know, we don't want this bill!  We want sensible reform that includes Fannie and Freddie Mac.  If you want to curb wild swings in the market, you need to look at the automated computer penny traders that are not regulated.  Stop the "To Big To Fail" policies.  Don't try to legislate and regulate every single transaction in the business world, which includes any agreement I make personally with a company I owe money to and our repayment schedules.  Small banks will fail because of the massive regulation that will be imposed.  If you thought you have a hard time getting credit now, just wait until this beast hits!

There will be unintended consequences in this bill.  If JP Morgan and Goldman Sacks are salivating over this bill, then I for one believe, we better take a long look at it, there is definitely something wrong here!

Tea Party Full Of Anti-This??? or Is it That!

There’s been a recent bombardment of anti-Tea Party editorials, which have contained many misconceptions. Although some of the writers were well meaning, others were dizzyingly foul in their vituperative language. I am always willing to address the well meaning and explain what our Beaufort Tea Party stands for and what we don’t. People, most often, are wonderful and glad of the time and patience taken to help them understand the movement better. For those who choose the latter method of attack, I first, ask them to refrain from the foul language and enter an civil discussion. Often, this is met with an increase of abuse, wherein, I will abort any attempt at logic and walk away. We are a peaceful movement and abhor violence in both speech and action. Over the past year, we have hosted or participated in four rallies and at no time was violence ever an issue, by a Tea Party member. Violence has been perpetrated against Tea Party members and radically under reported in the media.

I have the distinct honor of being one of the five founding members of the Beaufort Tea Party, so I speak with expertise and passion on this issue. Many far right individuals have attempted to control the Tea Party movement with no success. This is a true grass root movement that has no central base of control. Some individual groups, do accept influence from the Republican Party, while the majority of us shun it. Others have slyly adopted the Tea Party moniker, while being loyal to the far left part of the Democratic Party in an attempt to blur and confuse public opinion.

Recently, the South Carolina Republican Party tried to create a Tea Party branch. When word of this action was made known, 22 Tea Party groups joined in protest and forced them to back down. Thus, we made them recognized our individual autonomy. It is the only time that all groups agreed on a single issue and acted in concert.

Although, many of our members are registered Republicans, we also have a healthy contingent of Libertarians and moderate Democrats. A substantial number of members have informed me that they refuse to register with any political party, feeling, and rightly so, that both major political parties have betrayed us. We never ask political affiliation and we get our information only through spontaneous disclosure. Although, there are a few Tea Party groups that have heavy Republican Party influence, people are free to leave them and move onto a neighboring group that refuses party influence. Beaufort Tea Party owes no affiliation to any political party, nor will we endorse any political candidates. The main purpose of our Tea Party is to educate the voters about the candidates and issues and allow them to make up their own minds as to how to vote.

Any person who claims that they are a Tea Party Candidate in South Carolina makes a false claim. Political Parties must be “certified” in order to be recognized. To date, there is no Tea Party currently “certified” and should anyone attempt to do so, they will have to face the ire of more than 20 Tea Party groups.

One recent Letter to the Editor, in the Beaufort Gazette by Raymond Dominick (May 3, 2010) claims that we are “anti-government, anti-tax, anti-abortion, anti-immigrant and pro-gun”. He got one thing right, we are pro-gun. The 2nd Amendment has been upheld by the Supreme Court, which provides the “right to bear arms” to the individual. As a police officer in Brooklyn, NY, I never once saw a legal firearms holder arrested for a crime with a firearm. I did witness and make arrests for crimes with illegal weapons.

The main tenant of true Tea Party groups is the adherence to the Constitution, not the reinterpretation of this founding monument of our nation. Congress has allowed the withering of our unalienable rights by ignoring this document. Therefore, we are not “anti-government” but for a Constitutional government, which respects the separation of powers, as well as a “limited” one. Our nation cannot function without a government. That would be anarchy and the death of this wonderful country.

To say we are “anti-tax” is another falsehood. Government cannot function without a source of revenue, which is provided for in the Constitution. Unreasonable taxes which cause a heavy burden on individuals and business are what we protest. Congress, which has grown hungry with earmarks, in order to garner votes and support a lifetime career have come up with creative ways to impose new taxes which has only added fuel to our current economic crisis. As a former small business owner and manager, I can say, some taxes are just job killers! We seek taxation with responsible representation.
“Anti-abortion” is a loaded phrase. This is a moral issue and one of states rights. It is an issue I struggled with as a young woman as Roe V. Wade was being debated in the 1970’s. There is a point where compassion for the mother under certain circumstances is a priority. However, when the issue is that the child is to be discarded simply because it’s inconvenient, than we will disagree strongly. If you demand the right to end a life, than we should equally be able to demand you be social responsible and prevent the child’s conception and prevent it’s life being an issue. If the termination of an innocent life is or no more than the reason of, “it’s a burden to my social life or budget” than it’s a death sentence to a child who committed no crime. A criminal commits their crime with the full knowledge that if caught they will face the death penalty. That is a free choice, which is something the unborn child is not given.

To say we are “anti-immigrant” is wrong. We oppose illegal immigration and amnesty. The illegal immigrant knowingly commits a crime when they cross the border. Hundreds of thousands of potential immigrants wait silently to enter legally and are being denied because our system is being overloaded. States and local government are forced to carry the burden as they swamp our emergency rooms for free health care, enter our school systems while avoiding paying taxes that support the school district, commit identity theft with stolen social security numbers, fail to pay federal income taxes that support the Medicaid, Welfare and other services they avail themselves of and comprise over 1/3 of our criminal prison population. Our unemployment rate is 9.9% and doesn’t tell the true numbers. This rate does not include those who are self-employed and not working, or those who no longer are eligible for unemployment, and/or have quit looking for work. If we were to expel just 10% of the employed illegal aliens, you would open over 1 Million jobs to unemployed Americans. Just imagine the relief to the State and Federal budget. Oh and yes, there are a few who do pay taxes, but they still have committed a criminal act when they came here and remain. We are for legal immigration, not rewarding someone for committing a criminal act. The hard part is seeing the consequences to the children of these criminals, but what of the consequences to the families of the unemployed Americans and legal immigrants, who lost their jobs to an illegal immigrant or was a victim of their criminal act? Do we, as Americans, now have less rights and freedoms than a criminal?

Why do we not demand countries that have the largest contingent of illegal aliens in our country reform their policies to promote their economic growth and the welfare of their people? Must we be the ATM of the world? We allow other countries to dictate our policies, why don’t we do the same? Balance the scales! We are the land of Lady Liberty & Lady of Blind Justice!

Truly, if you want to understand what the Tea Party is about visit our web sites, attend our rallies and meetings, read the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution over again. You need not listen to FOX News or Sean Hannity. You do need to think independently and with informed facts, while taking the time to understand the arguments fully on both sides before you take your stance and draw that line in the sand. Above all, debate the issues civilly! We are united as Americans, let’s debate these issues and make this a stronger country!

OMG - People Cancel Vacation Plans To Gulf Coast Over Spill!

OMG - For those not savvy means, Oh My GOD! People, fellow Americans, who flocked to Katrina devastation are now canceling their vacation plans to sun bath on cleaner beaches. I am now wondering, just how many are progressives!

Before you flog me, let me tell you a personal story. Back in the early 60's there were two oil spills in the Long Island Sound on the northern shore of Long Island, NY. We had a spot we went to often in the summer months and I learned to swim in the "Sound".

My parents are Republicans and rather than cancel our summer vacation, they chose to still go and teach us a valuable lesson. It was about the stewardship of our country and it's resources.

Rather than splash in the cool waves, we helped rake oil tainted sand. We caught seagulls and other water fowl covered in the smelly tar. Carefully, we helped handle these wild birds, slowly washing the muck from their feathers. The dead fish clean up was the worst.

Yet, as a child, my family and many friends showed up and tirelessly worked, then we all went back to our homes across the country and resumed our lives.

Lesson learned? You need not be a liberal to claim a love for nature. We as "Conservatives" are interested in "Conservation" by our very own nature. So once again, who is canceling their reservations? Hello Al Gore, where are you hiding now???

Just saying........

Who Would You Vote For President In 2012???

Thank You President Obama!

Thank you President Barak Hussain Obama for your policies and action that have stirred the heart beat of grass root Americans, such as myself.  By doing so, you have caused us to rise from our lethargy and pay attention to current events.

Thank you, Mr. President for helping us to find our voices and causing us to join in a wonderful Americana Chorus.  Although we are the majority, we had thought our words had no force.  Now that we are silent no longer, we know that we have hit a nerve, that you and your cronies find  rather uncomfortable.

Thank you, Sir!  Without the Tea Party Ideal, I might have not become involved and help to form our Tea Party.  Through this growing movement, I have made friends with so many people, that under different circumstances, I may have never had met.

Thank you, because of you and your co-conspirators, I have had the joy of being befriended by a Retired Civil Rights Attorney and Former Judge, by nationally radio syndicated talk show hosts, by nationally syndicated columnists, by my elected representatives,and by Black, Hispanic, Asian and Gay conservatives across the nation.  I have had the joy of meeting so many people from so many walks of life and experiences, my head still spins from amazement!  What a ride, I am enjoying!

Thank you President Obama!  Because of your legislation and regulations, I have found myself giving numerous key note speeches and have over come my stage fright.  Now, I find I have a special talent with words and with motivating people, that otherwise would have laid dormant for the rest of my life.

Mr. President, Thank you.  Since my retirement, I have lead a very quiet, sedimentary life and no longer had friends in high places.  Because of my new found spot light in the Tea Party movement, I have received a personal invite and will have the pleasure of enjoying lunch with a handful of other people like myself with the Governor of my wonderful state, this week at the Governor's Mansion.

Sir, thank you.  I had never thought that this nation would ever elect someone worse than President Jimmy Carter, so I did not take strong enough action to make myself heard or to motivate others into action.  You have shown me the error of my thinking.  I will never make that mistake again.  In my heart, I know that from among the uprising multitude a new Reagan Conservative will rise and whomever that may be, they will hear our voices and they will listen.  Everyday, we will continue to fight to retain our rights and liberties.  We will restore our nation to the true republic our founding fathers left in our care.

Finally, Sir, thank you for giving my life a direction and purpose.

Here We Go! Thank You Obamacare!

Before anything is fully enacted with Obamacare, the ship is being abandoned and the pirates are hitching a ride! 

• Medical Insurers are already seeking ways to lure healthy people to offset the mandate of covering previous conditions.  
• The Insurers are also seeking to hike rates, before they are regulated, so watch your wallets.  
• Now Doctors are setting to close their practices if they are close to retirement age.  Those, who have wealthy clients or are specialist, are already looking to the Caribbean Islands for a 5 to 6 month set up of their practice to offer their people medical care without the burden of Obamacare.  
• Now throw into the midst, President Calderone of Mexico offering "Medical Tourism" and incentives to lure 5 million retired Americans to Mexico!

So now, as the Mexican National's illegally sneak across the border for illegal employment and government benifits, they will try to lure us "Legally" across the border, knowing we are past child bearing years, to reap our money!  What's next?  And Thank You Obama for the destruction of America!

Unleashing Capitalism

"Unleashing Capitalism" is a must read book by Russell S. Sobel.  I was enthralled with so concise an outlay of Reagan ideals that have meaning for today's world.  Although he speaks extensively about West Virginia, utilizing it's principles would work anywhere in our nation.

In essence, it contains Tea Party principles of:

• Limited Government
• Free Market Economy
• Lower Taxes
• Reduction of Business Regulations
• Protection of Property Rights
• Tort Reform
• Elimination of Business Subsidies
• Lessening of Business Regulations
• School Vouchures
• Welfare To Work

I am guilty as the next person of only focusing on a handful of reforms and not looking at the broad picture.  We need to all work for all of these items and not allow the Progressives to derail us by blowing up a single issue as the must pass now legislation.

Give me your thoughts!

The Census & What The Heck Do We Do????

All my life, I considered myself a law abiding "Conservative Republican" until Glenn Beck had on his show a challenge to take the test to determine your political stance.  Lo and Behold, I found I have Libertarian leanings.  Which was no wonder, since I have always detested the "Census" questionnaires.

Now, I may make a few enemies, or people, who claim I am a traitor to the cause, but I will beg to differ.  So hear me out, please.

The Progressives and Statist are betting on those of us, to NOT fill out the census.  Why?  They gain power and seats in Congress by their shear numbers.  They are hoping and praying, we will resist answering the 10 questions and chase the Census workers off our front porch and NOT be counted.

Who loses?  We do!  By failing to have our bodies counted, we will lose seats in Congress and thus lose our voice if Candidates we want are not elected.  Would you want Pelosi or DeMint? Another Harry Reid or worse FOUR more years of Obama, only because we lost representation in the Congress and Electoral Collage?  This is a real possibility, if those of us are NOT counted.

I read the census form and, YES, filled it out.  I personally failed to see the need for my phone number, and asked myself, what if someone didn't have a telephone or if it wasn't listed, did it mean you had one?  Just saying? What?  Would one be in violation of the census law?  However, I digress. When it came to ethnicity, I checked other and entered "American"  it's only 10 questions, not what others are telling you.

No where did it ask the question of toilets of other invasive things. It did ask about whether I won my home and have a mortgage.  It didn't ask my Social Security number or if I have heating.  To tell the truth, there are, as I understand it, a few more extensive questionnaires out there, but they are voluntary and not part of the regular census.


So, my answer is fill out the form, get our numbers counted so we out number the Progressives / Liberals / Statis.  Lets get seats added to Congress of the Conservative / Libertarian / Independent leaning and get the Obama atrocities repealed!

This are my thoughts, what's yours?

Why Are Liberals / Progressives / Statist So Violent?

      I grew up in the 1960's, where the riots of the Civil Rights movement filled the nightly news and the Vietnam War filled our every thought.  Anti-War demonstrations, sit-ins, love-ins, Woodstock and home grown terrorists like the Weatherman and Black Panthers filled the front pages of the newspapers.  My parents were Conservative and supported Civil Rights and Equal Opportunity Laws.  Like the Republican Party, they wanted President Johnson to pass the Civil Rights Legislation proposed by the Republican Congress. They took the time to teach, each of my siblings and I, Conservative values.  However, for some reason it all fell on deaf ears with one brother.

     Oddly, that one brother, who turned out as a Progressive Liberal, was the one who was most violent.  I grew up separating my older brother from one altercation after another.  I thought it was just who he was and never equated it to an ideal.  Now, almost half a century later, I finally realize it is equated to the political stance.  It seems to be something ingrained in the philosophy.

     As a Conservative, I naturally shy away from physical violence.  For a great many years, I kept my political voice quiet so not to upset anyone.  Today, age and circumstance has loosed my lips and my keyboard.  Conservative in action and belief, we have been the "Silent Majority" and often ignored.

    As Conservatives we were silent, which allowed the Liberals / Progressives / Statist to assumed we could be bullied and beaten into submission.  The Weatherman used bombs, the Black Panthers, nightsticks at election polling places and now Code Pink tries to arrest Karl Rove at a book signing.  Former White House Adviser to President George W. Bush was all class as Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans attempted to place handcuffs on him.  Anti-War protesters attempted to rush the stage, causing him book signing to be canceled.

     Violent protests marred the Global Warming Conference in Copenhagen, the World Conference in Philadelphia and Seattle, Immigration Protests in Los Angeles and now there were attacks on Tea Party Patriots in Searchlight, Nevada.  A pie in the face of Ann Coulter at a college speech is not harmless, threats of handcuffs to Karl Rove is not harmless.  The violation of our persons, our freedoms and rights by those who wish to control us, is not harmless.

     Mao Tse-Tsung said that Political power comes from the end of a gun.  The Progressives / Satists / Liberals are attempting to hold a gun to our heads, while trying to take our guns away.  Just how will we respond?  Honestly, I hope just as Ann Coulter and Karl Rove have, with dignity, determination and within the law.  Let the other side implode and let not us explode.


     Just my thoughts, what are yours?

Kiss America Good Bye

I watched today, Sunday, to the House of Representative's debate on the Reconciliation of Health Care and the debate on Health Care, at first, with great hope in my heart.  I ended with great dismay.  Yet, somewhere deep inside me, I still hold out hope, that the United States of America that I know and love, has not yet been destroyed.

Through razzle dazzle moves the House Chairs have ignored Parliamentary Rules and silenced any actions by Republicans to clarify rules or add amendments.  The Chair of the House Rules Committee, Louise Slaughter admitted that "technically" the "Slaughter / Deem It" rules violate House Rules.  Massive protests, phone campaigns and countless polls have loudly told Congress that the public don't want their bill.

Reform yes, not socialism.  Yet, Bart Stupak failed to listen and kowtowed to the "Anointed One" President Obama.  Foolishly, he believes that an Executive Order would miraculously cut abortion from the Health Care Takeover.  Instead, what Representative Bart Stupak wanted, was an easy out and a return to a "normal family life".  Well, Mr. Congressman, if you wanted a normal family life, why did you run for Congress?  Mr. Congressman, because of you, millions of unborn children will never have the chance to be born and have a normal family life!

Congressman Stupak, you and Congresswoman Louise Slaughter will have the honor to go down in history as the two pivotal persons, who changed forever the face of America from a Republic to a Socialist State.  May I suggest a name change for your children and wife, I sure as heck don't want to be in their shoes as they try to explain why Freedom died in America and who was complicit in it's demise!

What can we do now?  We can try to strip out the worst aspects of this monstrosity through legal maneuvering.  Follow the Americans for Posterity,  Mark Levin's Landmark Legal Foundation and any other web site seeking legal redress.  We can't give up, we must keep fighting and stay informed!

May GOD bless American and help us return the Republic to these shores!

Expel Members Of House Who Invoke The "Slaughter Solution"

The Democratic Chair of the House Rules Committee, Representative Louis Slaughter (NY-24) has come up with a power grabbing idea, being dubbed the "Slaughter Solution".  Rep. Slaughter, who is joined at the hip to the Democratic Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi (CA-08) has dreamed up a rule for the House to bypass actually voting on the Senate Health Care Bill and passing it into law.




In order to do this, Speaker Pelosi would present to the House the "corrections" for approval of the Senate bill.  Therefore, the House will not vote on the actual Senate Bill, but only on the pages presented as corrections and Ms. Pelosi will present the full Senate bill with the House corrections for President Obama's signature. 

Does anyone see a problem here?  I do, this is in direct violation of the Constitution, which Speaker Pelosi and Representative Slaughter swore to uphold.  Article 1, Section 7, Clause 2 requires both houses of Congress to vote on the bill.  If there are amendments or changes, the bill is to go to a committee made up of selected members of the Senate and House to reconcile the differences, before going to the President for signature.

I ask you, how can you vote only "corrections", when you haven't even voted on the actual bill?  Any Member of the House who agrees to and is complicit in this scheme should be expelled from Congress for Violation of Oath of Office and immediately arrested.  In an article on the "Friends of the  Article V Convention" web site titled "Violation of Oath of Office and Walker vs Members of Congress" they explain:

"Federal law regulating oath of office by government officials is divided into four parts along with an executive order which further defines the law for purposes of enforcement. 5 U.S.C. 3331, provides the text of the actual oath of office members of Congress are required to take before assuming office. 5 U.S.C. 3333 requires members of Congress sign an affidavit that they have taken the oath of office required by 5 U.S.C. 3331 and have not or will not violate that oath of office during their tenure of office as defined by the third part of the law, 5 U.S.C. 7311 which explicitly makes it a federal criminal offense (and a violation of oath of office) for anyone employed in the United States Government (including members of Congress) to “advocate the overthrow of our constitutional form of government”. The fourth federal law, 18 U.S.C. 1918 provides penalties for violation of oath office described in 5 U.S.C. 7311 which include: (1) removal from office and; (2) confinement or a fine."

 Although, I cite the Article V site for the purpose of explaining the law in this blog post, I do not support a Constitutional Convention.  I am advocating the upholding of our Constitution and enforcement of this nations laws, equally among all citizens, no matter what office they hold.  Should President Obama agree to sign into law the Health Care bill if passed under the Slaughter Solution, he should be impeached and also arrested for Violation of Oath of Office.

When we hold the Members of Congress and The Office of the President to the same standards of the average citizen, we just may have a more honest and open republic!
