Oh Hell No!

I just spotted this over at Blackfive and I think you need to get over there ASAP and find out if your congressional scumbag was involved.

I'll just say this...vote the bastards out! Every damn one of them!

UPDATE

Just found a second post on this at the Washington Times.

Good Stuff

In my daily reading, I found a couple of posts that should appeal to the history buffs that wander in. Go check the United States Naval Institute Blog for a couple real good reads here and here.

You won't regret it.

UPDATE

Not too long ago, I posted this about sending some questions to Mark Walberg. I neglected to post yesterday, that I had received an automated reply from his office about how busy he is and that he would answer my communication as soon as he could.

Not exactly ignoring it, but not quite the speedy response one really wants from a "public servant".

By The Way

The House finance committee today passed a health care measure. Do not fail to take every possible opportunity to remind your elected weasels to keep their hands off our health care.

All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men (and women) to remain silent.

I Love It!

I found this at Theo Spark, you can see where he found it as soon as it's done. I think you're gonna love this.

Happy Birthday

Happy 234th birthday to the United States Navy.

A Message For the Tea Partiers

I think it's important, and I would go do it myself but here in Michigan, you don't have to register with a particular political party in order to register to vote. Go over to Sipsey Street to read the message.

Thank You

I noticed just now that my hit counter has gone over 10,000. Thank you to all who take the time to read some of the crap I put out. It took 3 years to get here and I hope I have many more years of stuff that might be worth reading. Thank you all.

Excuse Me?

I was reading David Codrea's War on Guns, which I do every day (and you should to). There is an article there that I have been pondering for the past couple of days, not too difficult since it was written Wednesday. This article addresses a recent "investigation" that was conducted by the City of New York and it's Mayor, Michael Bloomberg.

Apparently, the focus of this "investigation" was the ability of "straw purchasers" to purchase weapons at gun shows. Now, those of you who read this who may lean a little left may not see a problem with this, after all, if there's a problem, shouldn't we identify and correct it? On the surface, you may be correct, but look a bit deeper.

These "investigations" are not being conducted in New York City. They were conducted in Ohio, Tennessee and Nevada. This leads me to ask one important question.

Where exactly does the City of New York derive the legal or moral authority to conduct a criminal investigation outside the city limits of New York proper? To the best of my knowledge, their assistance has not been requested. They hold no jurisdiction outside New York City. They have no Federal authority. They have no arrest powers. They have exactly nothing, other than the support of a man who would happily see your guns confiscated.

I wonder if now could be a good time to flood your elected officials with complaints about this man's conduct.

Candidate Questions

So, I took a page out of David Codrea's book and e mailed his list of pertinent 2nd Amendment questions to Mark Walberg, who is running for Congress against Mark Schauer, here in Michigan. I will post his answers when I get them. I'll also post the questions, which came from David Codrea, so that you can send them to your candidates.

1. Do you believe that the Constitution is the "supreme law of the land" and that the Bill of Rights acknowledges our birthrights?

2. If so, should these rights be proactively protected from infringement by all levels of government, including city, county and state?

3. Please give some examples of gun laws you consider constitutional.

4. Please give some examples of gun laws you consider unconstitutional.

5. Does the right to bear arms include the right for any peaceable citizen to carry them concealed without a permit, as in Vermont?

6. Do you believe that Americans have a right to own, use and carry weapons of military pattern, and will you use the prestige of elected office to publicly promote that right?

7. Do you support or oppose registration of weapons? Why?

8. Do you support or oppose licensing requirements to own or carry firearms?
Why?

9. What specific gun laws will you work to get repealed?

10. If elected, will you back your words of support for firearms rights up with consistent actions? How?

Thanks to David Codrea for thinking this up. It's about time we started finding out what the people running for office really think.

Just When You Thought The Web Was Safe

Look what I found at the Anti Idiotarian Rottweiler

I can't wait.

Sigh

I become weary and more than mildly frightened while reading the news these days. I'm an amateur historian and I can recall reading the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and feeling chills at the wisdom of these founding documents. Reading the histories and realizing what these great men risked to do what they did to create the greatest nation this planet has ever known.

Now, I feel very much like sobbing as I realize that our current government is destroying all of that while risking almost nothing because the American Patriot is asleep or unconcerned. I believe it was Patrick Henry that said "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance", we seem to have forgotten to remain vigilant, lulled to sleep by the Whores of the Potomac and their media pimps feeding us their "everything is under control" pablum. We can't even see what's happening right in front of our faces.

An organization called the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) which has nothing to do at all with poverty and damn little to do with law, is actually working with the Department of Homeland Security to brand anyone that questions the course of government as a domestic terrorist. FUCKING WAKE UP PEOPLE! If you are a veteran, you're a terrorist. If you own a gun, you're a terrorist. If you attend your local church or synagogue, you're a terrorist. If you question anything the government is doing or speak out about what you might think is wrong, you're a terrorist. You care to explain to me what's wrong with this picture? Do you realize that according to the guidelines published by SPLC and DHS that the founding fathers were terrorists?

An election approaches. You have a responsibility to find out what each candidate for office believes and stands for. YOU HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY to find the truth for yourself about the people who seek office. Start your research right now! RIGHT GODDAMN NOW! Contact them, ask them the tough questions. Take not the counsel of the Whores of the Potomac or their media pimps. Do not listen to the bullshit about experience instead, look at where that experience has gotten us. You may want change, I want a clean house (and senate). It's time to throw a dose of bleach into the political pool. It's time to find some true patriots to elect to public office, people who have read and understand the founding documents and respect them as the ultimate law of this nation.

Do not fail in this charge. There are but 4 boxes to defend liberty, the soapbox, the ballot box, the jury box and the bullet box, pray let us never need the 4th box, but I fear that we will use it and probably within my lifetime, if the American Patriot does not awaken and regain control.
