GEORGE WASHINGTON STATED

Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty teeth.



First Inaugural Address of George Washington...April 30, 1789

The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty and the destiny of the republican model of government are justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally, staked on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people.

The Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Abraham Lincoln said:

"In this age, and in this country, public sentiment is everything. With it, nothing can fail; against it nothing can suceed. Whoever molds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes, or pronounces judicial decisions."

James Madison Declared

The adversaries of the Constitution seem to have lost sight of the PEOPLE altogether in their reasonings on this subject; and to have viewed these different establishments not only as mutual rivals and enemies, but as uncontrolled by any common superior in their efforts to usurp the authorities of each other. These gentlemen must be reminded of their error. They must be told that the ULTIMATE AUTHORITY, wherever the derivative may be found, RESIDES IN THE PEOPLE ALONE.

President Obama

It Would Help If Your Administration Would Actually Read Arizona’s New Law.

Facing a plague of murders, kidnappings and criminal mayhem, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed a simple, no-nonsense bill into state law that would help secure Arizona's southern border.

Within hours, even though he had not read the law, Barack Obama had the audacity to call it "misguided" and "irresponsible." He said: “And I want everyone, American and Mexican, to know my administration is taking a very close look at the Arizona law. We’re examining any implications...." Obama added: "I’ve directed my Justice Department to ... look very carefully at the language of this law to see whether it comports both with our core values and existing legal standards...."

"Taking a very close look...?" ... has anyone in the administration even bothered "to look very carefully at the language of this law?”

It appears not.

Attorney General Eric Holder confessed recently that he has not read the Arizona law; and yet, his "Justice Department" is going to fight it tooth-and-nail. The head of the Department of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano, admits that she has not read it; and yet, ICE is indicating that it will not cooperate with Arizona on enforcement of the law.

How can you "examine" the "implications" of a law if you refuse to read it?

Of course, if they had bothered to read it, perhaps they would understand that Arizona’s law closely mirrors the federal immigration statutes already on the books. The difference is that Arizona, unlike the federal government, actually plans to enforce it.

Senator Sessions even went so far as to accuse the Obama Administration of “nullifying existing law.” Senator Sessions is understating the argument. The Obama Administration isn't simply "nullifying the law." The Obama Administration is actively fighting it.

And this arrogant and egregious dereliction of duty must stop... TODAY.

Diversionary Tactics?

In the February 20, 2009 edition of the Chicago Tribune I read an interesting insight by ANDREW MCCARTHY OF THE NATIONAL REVIEW ONLINE.


"President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder, experienced litigators, fully realize that in a civilian court the Qaida quintet can and will demand discovery of mountains of government intelligence...As civilian "defendants," these war criminals will put Bush-era counterterrorism tactics under the brightest public spotlight in American legal history...And because it is unnecessary to have this civilian trial at all, one must conclude that this is what Obama and Holder want to happen.

This will give the hard left its promised feast. Its shock troops, such as the Center for Constitutional Rights, will gather up each new disclosure and add it to the purported war-crimes case they are urging foreign courts to bring against President Bush, his subordinates, and U.S. intelligence agents."

So the reason for the civilian New York trials are for two reasons:
  1. To divert the public attention from the miserable failed foreign policies of President Obama and
  2. To but the blame on President Bush, as they have been doing since Obama's inauguration.

Wake up America and see the writing on the wall.

President Obama's first duty...a dismal failure?

President Obama's first and foremost duty as President is to safeguard the nation and its citizens. With President Obama's decision to prosecute five co-conspirators with the planning of the terrorist destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers in a Manhattan courtroom he is painting another bulls eye on New York City less than a mile from where the World Trade Center stood.

The President and his Attorney General, Eric Holder have some misplaced belief that these "enemy combatants" should be tried in a civilian court according to the rule of law we have established for criminals. Doesn't the President "get it yet"; these are terrorists who are using Islam as a recruiting method to promulgate jihad against anyone not Muslim and even those who are Muslim and do not agree with their brand of Islam. He is importing them into the United States...what a blunder. Just because they don't wear a uniform does not mean they are any less an armed force dedicated to kill us and what we stand for....this is every bit a war but without the visible trappings that we are use to seeing. These terrorists should not be brought (imported) to the United States and should be tried by military tribunals only after the War on Terror has been won; if it takes 10 or 20 years so be it. We did not begin this war they did and the burden of their actions and its consequences fall on them and not on us.

FBI begins probe of Holder?...in future?

In 3 1/2 years after our current President looses his office Attorney General Eric Holder might find himself in a similar situation after someone in the next administration finds somethings he or someone in the then current administration perceives some action in the Obama administration as unethical or illegal. Mr. Holder should be careful....you know the old saying "what goes around comes around". Be careful what you do Mr. Attorney General it may come back to haunt you in a few years.

Another reason for this move now is to take the heat off of the President whose ratings are falling at a precipitous rate in the democratic and republican parties and also with the American people across this great land.
