It’s wrong alright…

But not necessarily for that reason.

My elected representative’s website (Debbie Stabenow [D-MI]) didn’t even have a firearms, guns, second amendment, or private property section in her list of contact subjects list, despite having subjects that ran from solid waste to space issues. Feel free to use my letter to simply and succinctly tell your representative how you feel about your right to bear arms.

Fully aware of your traditionally poor stance on personal-freedoms in firearms ownership, I must nonetheless request that as my elected representative, you vote yes on the National Defense Authorization Act (S. 1390). I, and a majority of Americans who feel that associations like the NRA best represent their views on firearms ownership, believe that the right to bear arms peaceably, by law-abiding American citizens is fundamental to our prosperity as a nation based on individual freedoms. I would ask that despite your past track record on firearms issues, that you take a moment’s pause, and examine not simply what you believe is politically expedient, or in line with your personal views, but instead the will of those you represent. I look forward with this vote to a better representation of the will of your constituency,

God bless,

Obama promises to reduce the number of abortions in America

Pope Benedict XVI calls for a World Political Authority

Reading the first half of Reuter’s article on President Obama and Pope Benedict’s meeting today in the Vatican, I was left mostly unsurprised.

The President told the Vatican that he would do “everything possible to reduce the number of abortions in the United States” and that his goal is to “change social conditions so as to put more women in situations where they do not feel they have to have an abortion”, which in truth, is a very polite way of saying “Thanks for your vote, but I’ll pursue my own agenda”.

Openly and consistently stating that you support abortion, embryonic stem-cell research, and civil rights for gay couples is one thing, but to waffle on these issues when it’s politically expedient to come across as a social Conservative is disingenuous.

Whether he’s right or wrong on these issues, he’s lying about them.

The pope also gave the president a copy of his latest encyclical, “Charity in Truth,” which called for a “world political authority” to manage the global economy and for more government regulation of national economies to pull the world out of the current crisis and avoid a repeat.

Regardless of how you feel religiously about a connection between the Vatican and statements about a New World Order, this should be raising little red flags in the minds of every American (and for that matter, every person in a free democratic state), regardless of your religious affiliation who values independence of law, and freedom of self-governance.

Our founding fathers established a sovereign nation to be free of interference from a government that was not in line with their interests.  For Americans to put ourselves in a position where we are administered to by some massive worldwide governmental entity is to spit in the face of every single person who fought and died to preserve our Independence. The Pope, and all else who support some fanciful notion of a worldwide safety net, a global currency and some omniscient financial security administration need to take a very careful look at the threat this poses to our freedom.

Because when it gets right down to it, and this is something that I think many Americans miss, oppression doesn’t always come at the hand of a warring nation. We have as much to fear from an idyllic notion of world peace as we do from ruthless fascism and tyrannical dictators.

If dealing with global warming is like fighting against Nazis, at what point are Mr. Gore’s activities suspended under the Trading With the Enemy Act? (more...)

Obama “orders” Jews to stop building.

The Jews say whatever.

Obama isn’t president of Israel. Who knew?!

Didn't check below before I posted. Whoops!

“The police have no suspects at this time”

The Chicago Tribune

    This is your friendly neighborhood gun ban hard at work, Chicago. You’d think that after more than twenty years of Chicago’s existence as a “handgun-free-zone”, we’d start to see a decline in actual handgun violence.

    But that’s not the case, because gun bans don’t stop gun violence. Not that there’s any use alerting the bureaucrats in Chicago to this fact. What’s a few more dead bodies for the sake of draconian ideology? Wake up Chicago. Your government has failed you.

Shipping executive John Clancey opposed crews getting into an arms race with pirates on the high seas. Clancey is chairman of Maersk Inc., parent company of Maersk Line Ltd, whose ship—Phillips’ Maersk Alabama—was attacked on April 8.

Correct me if I’m wrong in that assumption.

It’s things like this that cement our position as a minority party. No real workable solutions, just criticism. It didn’t win us the White House, and it didn’t win us Congress.

We need to move beyond being “the party of no”. We’re still a center-right country, and if we expect to be taken seriously, we’d do well to have solid answers along with our criticism.

Pro-Abortion, but abortion rates in her state have gone down 8% in her state.

Anti traditional-marriage, but did little to affect passage of law making same-sex marriage unconstitutional.

Pro-gun, repealed machine gun act of 33’, but is a staunch opponent of concealed carry.

...what the hell?!
