PATRIOT RESISTANCE MOVEMENT

June 3, 2009

It appears that Gunny Bob at 850 KOA is on a rampage, and I don’t blame him one bit. First our fearless leader bows to the king of a country that supplied most of the people that attacked the United States on 9/11, and now he refuses to even acknowledge that the attack on the Arkansas recruiting station was a terrorist act. Certainly the list is much longer. One only has to read the news or the many blogs that are not kowtowing to the impostor in chief to be aware that something is just not right in America. Heck, when Pravda is more truthful than the American MSM it should be a wake up call…

PATRIOT RESISTANCE MOVEMENT

GUNNYISM OF THE DAY
“The CIA and Pentagon both say huge numbers of US military personnel have been killed in Iraq by the Iranian terrorist regime. The State Department lists the Iranian government as a terrorist entity. Obama just formally invited them to join our Independence Day celebrations. Is this fool out of his mind?”

Leftist Paper Had Refused Until Gunny Humiliated The Infamous Rag On The Air

Shortly after Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, who received terrorist training in Yemen and was illegally traveling on a Somali passport, attacked a military recruiting office in Little Rock at 10:30AM CT (9:30AM MT) on 1 June, news outlets across the country began urgently reporting the story. The shocking story went national within minutes.

But the Denver Post, run by Obamanista Greg Moore, refused to carry the story of how an Army recruiter’s assistant was killed in the brazen attack, another wounded, and that the terrorist would be charged with 1st degree murder and 15 counts of committing a terrorist act.

By 9:15PM MT, the Post was still refusing to publish the story. Gunny Bob went on the air and immediately began reporting how the Post would not run the story despite major national coverage. He did this repeatedly until 1:00AM Tuesday. At precisely that time, the Post capitulated and published the story 15 1/2 hours after it broke.

And the Post wonders why it is on the verge of extinction.

OBAMA: THE CASE FOR IMPEACHMENT
Nationalization of corporations without Constitutional authority

Firing of corporate executives without Constitutional authority

Driving the US into near bankruptcy

Using taxpayer dollars to fund overseas abortion mills

Refusing to condemn a brazen, deadly terrorist attack on US Army recruiter’s assistants

Department of Justice endorses Mob rule!

June 2, 2009

The DOJ has endorsed mob rule via allowing anyone to vote period. How long until ACORN, La Raza, and the New Black Panthers have even more dead people, people that do not exist, and NAMBLA members twisting our nation into some cheap imitation of Mexico? Not to mention non citizens voting.

I’m not sure who to give the hat tip to on this, TexasFred, who credited the Liberty Sphere, or my email provider where I found it from Pamala.

Since she’s a lot better looking than either of them she gets the nod!

Obama’s Justice Dept Will Allow Non-Citizens to Register to Vote in Georgia

Any shot for Americans to take back this country from the hard left in 2010/2012 is looking increasingly dim ….

Obama Justice Department Decision Will Allow Non-Citizens to Register to Vote in Georgia (hat tip Clyde)

Decision Bars Georgia From Continuing Voter Verification Process

Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel issued the following statement following the U.S. Department of Justice’s denial of preclearance of Georgia’s voter verification process

Atlanta – “The decision by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to deny preclearance of Georgia’s already implemented citizenship verification process shows a shocking disregard for the integrity of our elections. With this decision, DOJ has now barred Georgia from continuing the citizenship verification program that DOJ lawyers helped to craft. DOJ’s decision also nullifies the orders of two federal courts directing Georgia to implement the procedure for the 2008 general election. The decision comes seven months after Georgia requested an expedited review of the preclearance submission.

“DOJ has thrown open the door for activist organizations such as ACORN to register non-citizens to vote in Georgia’s elections, and the state has no ability to verify an applicant’s citizenship status or whether the individual even exists. DOJ completely disregarded Georgia’s obvious and direct interest in preventing non-citizens from voting, instead siding with the ACLU and MALDEF. Clearly, politics took priority over common sense and good public policy.

“This process is critical to protecting the integrity of our elections.
We have evidence that non-citizens have voted in past Georgia elections and that more than 2,100 individuals have attempted to register, yet still have questions regarding their citizenship. Further, the Inspector General’s office is investigating more than 30 cases of non-citizens casting ballots in Georgia elections, including the case of a Henry County non-citizen who registered to vote and cast ballots in 2004 and 2006.

“It is important to underscore that not a single person has come forward to say he or she could not vote because of the verification process. Further, while DOJ argues that the process is somehow discriminatory, the historic voter turnout among Hispanic and African-American voters in the 2008 general elections clearly says otherwise.

Things that make Gun owners cringe

June 2, 2009

No, these are things that are even worse than activist judges. Worse than all the lies told by the VPC, the Brady Bunch and San Fran Nan combined.

It is the improper use of firearms, period.

Firearms are tools and nothing more. A tool is an extension of a persons will. Be it a hammer driving a nail, a scalpel in the hand of a surgeon, or a firearm being used to save, or take a life. Are these uses  questions of moral equivalency, or can they be divided into issues that are black and white?

I believe that it all comes down to a persons sense of responsibility and accountability. Two components without which one cannot have Honor, and further that  one must have a rather healthy dose of inner honesty in order to use the two previous qualities properly.

Of course I would never expect the various hopolophobe groups to acknowledge that guns are not evil in and of themselves. The flip side of this coin is that I do expect gun owners to realize the moral commitment that attaches to oneself simply by being an owner of weapons.

Student Radicals!

June 1, 2009

Student radicals insisting on their rights is nothing new. The difference now being that the rights that are being discussed are rights actually spelled out in the Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

After the Columbine fiasco, as in the pathetic response to a couple of homicidal sociopaths there was a backlash against Constitutional liberty. That was pretty short sighted as well as the exact opposite of what should have been done. Many of us brought up the Israeli experience both before as well as immediately after the school was shot up, along with the bodies of people that were not only innocent of any wrong, but that trusted those in authority to make proper decisions in planning for, and implementing their safety.

Now, some ten years later, students are remembering the lessons taught them by those that are in fact knowledgeable about matters that involve life and death. Naturally, those that are “better then thou” in all things. Like politicians and social elitist’s are crying wolf, and at the same time feeding the innocent to the wolves…

Student unrest… The more that things change, the more they stay the same!

GOA on Sotomayor

Obama Picks Anti-gun Judge for the Supreme Court
— Time to start contacting your Senators right away

Unless you’ve taken a very long Memorial Day vacation, you’ve no doubt
heard the big news.

President Obama has picked an anti-gun radical to replace Justice David
Souter on the Supreme Court.

Obama’s pick is Judge Sonia Sotomayor, who is currently on the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Second District. There she has racked up an
anti-Second Amendment record and has displayed contempt for the rule of
law under the Constitution.

The Heller decision put the Supreme Court in support of the
Constitutional protection of the individual right to keep and bear arms.
Sotomayor, a politically correct lover of centralized government power
(as long as she is part of the power elite), immediately went into
counter-attack mode against the Heller decision.

Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel earlier this year which ruled
in Maloney v. Cuomo that the Second Amendment does not apply to the
states. As she and her cohorts claimed, the Supreme Court has not yet
incorporated the states under the Second Amendment. Until then, she
believes, the Second only applies to the District of Columbia.

This is pure judicial arrogance — something Sotomayor relishes (as long
as she is one of the ruling judges). In fact, protection of the right
to keep and bear arms was a major objective for enactment of the
Fourteenth Amendment, as recently freed slaves were being disarmed and
terrorized in their neighborhoods.

But Sotomayor disdains this important right of individuals, as indicated
by an earlier opinion from 2004. In United States v. Sanchez-Villar,
she stated that “the right to possess a gun is clearly not a fundamental
right.”

Sotomayor has held very anti-gun views, even as far back as the 1970s.
Fox Cable News reported yesterday that in her senior thesis at Princeton
University, she wrote that America has a “deadly obsession”
with guns
and that the Second Amendment does not guarantee an individual right to
firearms ownership.

Sotomayor’s Second Amendment views go hand in hand with her politically
correct views on the law and the role of judges.

In a speech given at Duke University in 2005, she made it abundantly
clear that judges are involved in making policy. Realizing that this
did not sound very judicial (even though most judges act on this basis),
Sotomayor tried to laugh off her brazen admission: “I know this is on
tape and I should never say that, [audience laughing], because we don’t
make law — I know. Um, okay. I know, I’m not promoting it, I’m not
advocating it.” The audience continued to laugh. They got the joke.

But Sotomayor’s joke will be on us and our liberties if she gets
confirmed to the Supreme Court. And that is why we need to start
contacting our Senators early and often, urging them to vote against
this dangerous nomination.

ACTION: Please contact your two Senators and urge them to oppose the
nomination of Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court. You can
go to the Gun Owners Legislative Action Center at
http://www.gunowners.org/activism.htm to send your Senators the
pre-written e-mail message below.

—– Pre-written letter —–

Dear Senator:

If you cherish the Second Amendment and agree that it protects an
individual right to keep and bear arms — as stated by the recent Heller
decision — then you must vote against Judge Sonia Sotomayor.

This choice for the Supreme Court is totally unacceptable! Consider a
partial rendering of her anti-gun record:

* Sotomayor ruled in United States v. Sanchez-Villar (2004) that “the
right to possess a gun is clearly not a fundamental right.”

* Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel earlier this year which
ruled in Maloney v. Cuomo that the Second Amendment does not apply to
the states. This makes her more liberal than the Ninth Circuit, which
stated in April that the Second Amendment does apply to the states.

* Sotomayor has held very anti-gun views, even as far back as the 1970s.
Fox Cable News reported on May 28 that in her senior thesis at Princeton
University, she wrote that America has a “deadly obsession”
with guns
and that the Second Amendment does not guarantee an individual right to
firearms ownership.

I will consider a vote in favor of Sotomayor as the most anti-gun vote a
Senator could cast. To send an anti-gun liberal judge to the Supreme
Court for the rest of her life is to establish “legislation without
representation.” After all, she says that the courts are where policy
is made, and once she’s there, we’ll never be able to vote her out.

Again, please vote against this dangerous nomination.

Sincerely,

There are times when people simply cannot fathom why I support the Gun Owners of America. Well? Read the above, then watch this from the wimps at the N.R.A.

“SB-2099” e-mail a hoax

June 1, 2009

From Rocky Mountain Gun Owners:

“SB-2099” e-mail a hoax, but illustrates why you should be a member of a trusted pro-gun group

You may have received an e-mail about a bill in the U.S. Senate known as “SB-2099”.

There are a great number of indicators in this e-mail that prove the sender is not to be trusted.

“This bill will become public knowledge 30 days after it is voted into law.”  Baloney.  I don’t trust the scumbuckets in Washington, D.C. either.  But a bill can’t become law without “public knowledge” or without a vote.

If this were possible, is there any doubt the anti-gun liberals would use it to immediately enact their gun control fantasies?  The only thing stopping them is… well, frankly, you, and your outrage.

Another thing that tells you this isn’t accurate is that the US Senate doesn’t legislation as “SB 2099” or “SB-2099”.  It would be “S. 2099”.

The third glaring indication that it isn’t real is that when you do a search of “S. 2099” or even “2099” from the US Senate website, it returns nothing.

I’m a former US Senate employee (Sen. Bill Armstrong’s staff), and still have a lot of contacts on the Hill.  So I’ve got a good handle on federal legislation — we track federal legislation here:

http://www.nationalgunrights.org/billwatch.shtml

As you can see, no “2099” exists in the current Congress.

The one thing they did get right is that 2099 was, at one time, a bill in the U.S. Senate… in 2000.  And yes, it was a gun control disaster.  It didn’t get anywhere, but 9 years later its not still alive.

However, this illustrates why we exist: There’s a lot of misinformation out there — especially on the internet — and gun owners need someone they trust take the time to decipher it.  They want to know what’s happening without being scammed, so they become members of groups they trust.

If you are sent this e-mail, forward our above reply, with a note from you to the sender and all the recipients:

“I asked a gun lobbyist I trust about the legislation you referenced, “SB-2099”.  And, as you can see from this 15-year veteran of the wars to save our freedoms, the referenced legislation isn’t as advertised.

There are plenty of real threats to our right to keep and bear arms.  Let’s put our energy into fighting them, not ghosts.

That’s why I’m a member of Rocky Mountain Gun Owners: I trust them to know what’s happening and alert me when my help is needed.

If you live in Colorado, you need to be a member.  There is no other group in Colorado who truly defends our rights without compromise.

Some good news for a change..?

May 30, 2009

Yes, most folks are all taken up with the news of the day. Arlen Specter involved in a murder investigation. A sexist racist being installed in the Supreme Court. An ugly as hell woman with the voice of an angel losing a damned popularity contest. We have people that are standing up for the ethical use of firearms catching some hell. Not to mention, that this past weekend I won the Chili Cook Off! Ok, there were only three entrants… But, I won! No, that is not the good news that I refer to in the title of this post.

Seems that the Pakistani Army is solidly kicking some terrorist butt! That’s something that few organized Army’s have ever accomplished. Rangers did it to the Lefts Godhead, and it’s happened a few times before. I will address the things that factor into such victories at a later time.

In the mean time?

Things that go boom in the night: Nuclear North Korea

May 28, 2009

Growing up in Oceanside and being a Marine Corps brat I can remember the Cold War only too well. I remember being taught about spent munitions and more importantly what not to do if you happened to come across, say, a mortar round that failed to detonate. If Merry reads this I’m sure she too will remember the class. We did not however, do the celebrated “duck and cover” drills. They would, after all, be useless if indeed we were hit with nuclear weapons.

At North Terrace Elementary School, we had more immediate problems to worry about. We had, as do most schools, bully’s. How to deal with a bully was a lesson that most of us learned the hard way. In a nutshell though, the solution was to place a fist deeply and squarely in the bully’s face prior to him gaining some advantage over you. This is called a preemptive defense, and generally was good for at least a swat from Mister Trainer (sp?), the Principle. A sore butt was well worth having the bully off your back seemingly forever. Perhaps that was my introduction to political economics? The point though, is that it worked.

What does this schoolyard scenario have to do with North Korea? The analogy should be easy to define. North Korea is a bully nation. North Korea is also now a bully that has a big stick called nuclear weaponry. The United Nations is much like the teachers that used to insist that you “talk things out” with the schoolyard bully’s. Talking things over with North Korea only embolden ‘s them, just like it would embolden the bully in the schoolyard. Not to mention that this bully has a few friends called China,  Iran and Syria. Not real friends of course. They just want a big stick also, or, in China’s case it’s more like an errant cousin that you’re stuck with defending even when you know that the cousin is an insane jerk.

Preemptive defense got a bum rap when George Bush sent the United States into an unneeded war with Iraq that we are still entangled with. That however, is not a problem with the doctrine. It is the result of some very poor judgment on the part of the powers that be at the time it was used. That very same doctrine may be what is needed to tame a tiger before it grows to large to tame. The use of surgical strikes that are so devastating that the North Koreans will never again be a threat to anyone beyond it’s borders may be the only solution for a world that is weary of the games being played by others with the lives of others. Simultaneous actions toward Iran and Syria might get the attention of the various up and coming would be world conquerors as well.

Will that happen while we have as President a man that would rather talk than fight? Who refuses to defend the nation from criminal invaders and blames another nations inability to control it’s criminals on the people of the United States? For some reason I am thinking that a man that bows to Kings will not have the honor or integrity to stand up to a schoolyard bully. One that threatens the entire world… Indeed, he would much rather disarm the very people that he swore an oath to defend.

Sotomayor for the Supreme Court

May 27, 2009

I’ve been holding off a bit with regards to the nomination of Judge Sotomayor for the Supreme Court. As noted in a previous entry I favored Ken Salazar for the position. Nevertheless, I feel that a few things need to be addressed with her selection.

Certainly everything that noted barrister David Kopel in his short assessment, found HERE should be looked over closely. As should the many concerns and comments there as well as over at my good friend TexasFreds.

In various places around the Internet I saw references to “reverse racism.” That, in and of itself is “bass ackwards” to quote an old Marine that I knew when I was growing up. Racism is racism. End of discussion. Same thing with sexism. Ms Sotomayor appears, at least from her history as reported too widely to cite, to have more than a bit of racist and sexist in her. I’d hoped that we as a nation had grown beyond all that sort of thing. Yet, in the last election cycle we were inundated with being told that it was not about race at all, but “change.” Then no sooner than the ballots were counted all that could be heard was how the United States had elected it’s first “Black President.” So much for a nation outgrowing it’s past like an adolescent outgrowing poor social skills. Not to mention that the man is half white, and half Arab… I suppose some things never do really change.

Also, having read the quotations from the Kopel piece I have to seriously wonder about the woman’s grasp of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Yes, I read her bio, and what came immediately into my mind were the words of a Professor Emeritus said to me many years ago. I shall repeat them here; “Never, young man, confuse education with intelligence.”

I shall leave me readers with that tiny bit of wisdom that I was blessed to be able to learn in years gone by.
