One of the hottest stories in the world of blogging right now is the lawsuit concerning Barack Obama’s citizenship.While intriguing I have to believe that this issue comes from the Tin Foil Hat Brigade Anyone that reads this blog knows that I am no supporter of Obama. Further, that an Obama win could very well split this nation to the point of an actual civil war. Not to mention that a loss will lead to widespread rioting. We are in for a rough ride irrespective of who wins the election.
Then again, the popular election notwithstanding, we are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic thank God! With a Bill of Rights that protects minorities from the majority.
Is, or has the United States ever been perfect? Of course not. This nation was, and is, a dynamic experiment in self governance. We do not have a King, although Chicago appears to have an aristocracy. We do not seek via government to impose religion upon the people by force of arms, although that has occurred in our past, and to a degree still do. Current laws seek to legislate morality in the conduct of religion. Least we not forget what happened at Waco.
Then we have the issue of effectively being able to defend ones self, family, and community. can you say gun control..? I knew you could!
So, after Obama is enthroned, what brand of tin foil should I make my hat from, so that I get the best reception for such mundane ideas as Liberty and Freedom..?

I hope and yes, even pray that political infomercials do not become a regular part of American politics. Indeed, political discussion is one thing. What happened last evening was an overdose that simply went way to far IMO.
Enough is enough for God’s sake!

Seems that American Spec Ops troops went after an Al Qaeda operative responsible for smuggling terrorist’s into Iraq that was using Syria as a safe haven. Go figure..? Syria has been repeatedly warned that this was going to happen if they didn’t put a stop to it. Now they are crying about it when it did. Even going so far as to demand an apology. Other sources tell a different story though. In fact, they say that the bad guy is now in the loving hands of a martyr’s virgins.
If, I ask, this raid was not effective, then why is Iran all freaked out? Brave words there General. Just remember that when the camel dung hits the rotating oscillating water wheel: [if you]
Mess with the best, die like the rest!
This PSA is brought to the people of Iran and Syria in the hope that they take responsibility for their homelands, and get new leadership by whatever means are necessary.
Hat Tip to Fred!

BELLEVUE, WA – ACORN, the publicly-funded national organization linked to voter fraud in several states is now actively interfering with the exercise of firearm civil rights in New Jersey, and the Second Amendment Foundation is calling for an immediate federal investigation.
“ACORN has, since 1998, received an estimated $31 million in government funding,” said SAF founder Alan Gottlieb. “Now they have intervened in a New Jersey gun rights case in defense of an illegal Jersey City one-gun-a-month ordinance that violates the state preemption statute.
“For the past few election cycles,” Gottlieb noted, “ACORN has clearly grown more partisan toward the political Left. ACORN’S PAC has endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for president. That’s hardly surprising since he used to serve as their legal counsel and he taught the group about community organizing. ACORN and Obama are lockstep in seeking to destroy our Second Amendment rights.
“The organization is currently under FBI investigation over allegations of voter fraud in several states,” he added. “Bad enough that ACORN is implicated in fraudulent activities in several states, but now an ACORN chapter in the Garden State is working against the ability of New Jersey gun owners to exercise a constitutionally-protected individual civil right to own a handgun.
“It is an outrage that this group has intervened to defend an anti-gun ordinance that has already been declared illegal by the court,” he observed. “So long as ACORN accepts one penny of public funding, the organization should remain absolutely neutral on social issues, political campaigns and especially legal actions defending the right to keep and bear arms.
“We call upon the FBI to expand the scope of its ACORN investigation and focus on the group’s involvement in the Jersey City case,” Gottlieb stated. “We support Ohio Congressman John Boehner’s request that the White House immediately block all federal funding of ACORN activities until this group’s questionable activities are fully investigated. We want to know how they are paying for attorneys, and why Seton Hall’s Center for Social Justice and the Public Interest Law Center are providing legal assistance to ACORN for this effort.
“This is still the United States, not a socialist gulag” Gottlieb concluded. “Public money should not be given to private organizations which then turn around and utilize that funding to usurp the electoral process and erode constitutionally-guaranteed civil rights.”

I received this from Senator Greg Brophy. It’s a laugh, but it is serious… kind of a gotcha!
In the middle of the campaign season, while everyone is tired of the ads and ready for this to just be over, this came to me and I just have to share.
You need a little background information first. I helped a candidate for state senate, Don Ytterberg, put together a comparison piece that shows some votes made by his opponent, Dan Gibbs, that Don thinks are out of line with the people that live in SD16. Two of the votes were amendments to bills that Gibbs ultimately voted for after voting against the key amendments. The first amendment is known as Jessica’s Law, which puts sexual predators away for a minimum of 25 years (something that 99.9% of America thinks is a good idea). Dan Gibbs voted against that amendment on 5-1-2007. The second amendment is one that I ran to mandate a $50,000 bond on illegal alien drug dealers so that they won’t just skip the country when they are released. Gibbs voted against that one last session and then ultimately voted for the final bill. During a televised radio interview, Gibbs brings up the negative mailer (comparison piece) and tries to show that it is inaccurate. Big mistake because Ytterberg has the votes in his briefcase.
You also need to know that the Colorado General Assembly has rules on amendments to bills that say the amendment has to relate to the bill. In this case, I’m not writing about an appropriations Christmas tree project like you see in Washington D.C. I’m talking about crime bills that were being discussed and debated on the floor of the House and the floor of the Senate. Both of the amendments narrowly lost, so every voted mattered.
If you ever run for office, don’t do this:
CAUGHT!

The more Obama tries to cover his tracks, the more apparent his totalitarian goals become exposed.
“We now have Obama on tape saying the Constitution is this country’s problem and stating that socialism, beginning with the federally enforced redistribution of wealth from those who have to those who have less, are his core philosophies. What the hell have I been telling you for more than a year now?”
Strong work Marine!
I myself am pretty fed up with the people that think Obama is no threat to our way of life.

Well you knew it had to happen sooner or later. Someone in the mainstream media actually hit the “X” with a story about the American people, the economy, the election, and gun rights. This story is not from the NRA, the GOA, or anyone even remotely connected with them.
Americans have cut back on buying cars, furniture and clothes in a tough economy, but there’s one consumer item that’s still enjoying healthy sales: guns. Purchases of firearms and ammunition have risen 8 to 10 percent this year, according to state and federal data.
No kidding? I wonder why?
Several variables drive sales, but many dealers, buyers and experts attribute the increase in part to concerns about the economy and fears that if Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois wins the presidency, he will join with fellow Democrats in Congress to enact new gun controls. Obama has said that he believes in an individual right to bear arms but that he also supports “common-sense safety measures.”
Have they recently cleaned off those rose tinted spectacles and really taken a look at who is running for President perhaps?
Industry experts and law enforcement officials point to several examples over the years. In 1994, there was a rush to buy guns when President Bill Clinton pushed for a ban on military-style semiautomatic rifles. Handgun sales jumped last year after the massacre at Virginia Tech as some worried about personal protection and others feared sweeping restrictions on handguns, pushing applications for concealed gun permits in Virginia alone up 60 percent. People also rushed to buy guns after the 1992 riots in Los Angeles and the breakdown of order in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.
This must be a misprint! he called them what they are!
Bob Leyshion, who visited a gun shop in Manassas recently, said the economic crisis and Obama’s lead in the polls were on his mind.
“People are preparing for catastrophe right now,” said Leyshion, 55, of Nokesville. “It’s insurance. With the stock market crash and people out of work, and the illegal aliens in this area, the probability of civil disorder is very high.”
This guy needs to listen, Palin might be alright, but her being selected as the V.P. candidate in no way cleans the slate with gun owners for McCain…
“The industry and sportsmen have not been in love with McCain, but the selection of Palin wiped that all away,” said Anthony Aeschliman, a spokesman for the National Shooting Sports Foundation.
Pandering is much to light a statement!
Brad, 42, and Margaret Marcus, 47, who were at a Fairfax County shooting range recently with their two children for weekly target practice, said they sped up the purchase of two semiautomatic rifles that had been banned during the Clinton administration because they feared they could become illegal again if Obama wins. The couple, who run an online retailing business from their Ashburn home, said they viewed Obama’s remarks about protecting the Second Amendment as campaign trail “pandering.”
I must admit that this writer had to show some serious chutzpa too actually say in a published story what the people in America really are thinking. Him, as well as his Editor and the Publisher might want to be sure that their last Will and Testament are up to date though.

Illinois State Rifle Association Executive Director Richard Pearson Issues Open Letter to Nation’s Sportsmen Regarding Obama’s TRUE History in the Illinois Senate
We’ve repeatedly warned readers not to believe Barack Obama when he claims to support our Second Amendment rights. We have told you the truth–that Barack Obama is the most anti-gun presidential candidate in American history! Hands down. No question. Barack Obama opposes the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding, freedom-loving, American firearm owners.
We’ve given the facts, and provided the documentation. But if you know someone who’s still not convinced, you’ll want to share with them a recent, open letter to our nation’s gun owners, hunters, and sportsmen, written by Illinois State Rifle Association (ISRA) Executive Director Richard Pearson. Pearson’s credentials include deep involvement in the firearm rights movement for more than 40 years. He’s been the chief lobbyist for the ISRA for the past 15 years. And, most importantly, because of his personal experience, he knows Barack Obama’s true stance on the Second Amendment.
In his letter, Mr. Pearson says, “I lobbied Barack Obama extensively while he was an Illinois State Senator. As a result of that experience, I know Obama’s attitudes toward guns and gun owners better than anyone. The truth be told, in all my years in the Capitol I have never met a legislator who harbors more contempt for the law-abiding firearm owner than does Barack Obama.”
Mr. Pearson goes on to describe just some of Obama’s anti-gun voting record, saying, “While a state senator, Obama voted for a bill that would ban nearly every hunting rifle, shotgun and target rifle owned by Illinois citizens. That same bill would authorize the state police to raid homes of gun owners to forcibly confiscate banned guns.” Obama also voted FOUR TIMES against legislation that would protect a homeowner who use a firearm in defense of home and family!
It doesn’t get much plainer than that, folks. This letter is a must-read for every pro-freedom, pro-self-defense, pro-Second Amendment American.
To read the entire letter, please click here. Then be sure to forward the link to every Second Amendment supporter you know. The truth about Obama’s stance on firearms and the Second Amendment needs to be told—again!

Seemingly every four years we hear about people wasting their votes. Right now this very issue is raising it’s ugly head among many of my fellow bloggers. Mostly what is being said is that a vote for anyone other than McCain is a vote for Obama.
Folks this is not algebra, and there isn’t any way that you can turn negatives into positives. This is a matter of honesty, as well as honor. Voting is a duty in my opinion. If you don’t vote, then you give up any right to complain about what the government is doing whatsoever. Some people understand that, and others? Well, it is just beyond their ken apparently.
Voting is an expression of our Constitution and what this nation actually stands for and is about. I don’t care on this level who you vote for as long as you vote your conscience. Failing to do so makes you a lemming, not a citizen. Voting your conscience is being what you are, an American.It is not wasting a vote contrary to what political pundits will say.
When John McCain passes more laws abridging your right to voice your opinion don’t say that I didn’t warn you. When Barack Obama takes away your right to effectively defend yourself, don’t say that I didn’t warn you. When you don’t vote your conscience and get something that you didn’t bargain for? Don’t say that I didn’t warn you.

Radical Islam’s war against the west; is the subtitle. Some time ago I was asked to write a review about the movie Obsession. The disk got shuffled around in the move, so this is a bit belated.
This film is well organized, and the makers go out of their way to point out that not all Muslims are extremist’s. So much so, that I was forced to think about the principles of propaganda.
This movie does a great job though, of presenting the threat of militant Islam worldwide. Complete with film footage of militant Imam’s and crowded parade grounds filled with people that have been stirred into a frenzy of hatred toward all things not Islamic.
Being a “Kuffar” I must admit that understanding the hatred that the people in the film apparently have for us is well beyond my ken. Particularly disturbing was the scene involving American Muslims in New York, and the various scenes involving U.K. Muslim activist’s.
Also striking was the film makers use of women of Muslim background to highlight the militant agenda of the extremist’s. Islams penchant for misogyny is pretty apparent, and the use of women to make their points was a stroke of genius. That they also remind us that there are sleeper Islamic terrorist cells right here in the United States serves as a reminder of the Congressional findingsthat so many people choose to ignore like the proverbial ostrich with their heads stuck in the sand.
In conclusion I have to say that every American and citizen of the U.K. needs to see this film.
