Listening To History

Do we ever learn from history? There is a lot of "meat" in many of the quotes that were handed down from our previous leaders and fellow Americans. Take a look at what Jefferson said.

“To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it.” —Thomas Jefferson

QUOTE OF THE DAY!

"The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism,
but under the name of liberalism
they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program
until one day America will be a socialist nation
without ever knowing how it happened----"

Norman Thomas (11/20/1884 to 12/19/1968), six-time Socialist Party presidential candidate and one of the founders of the National Civil Liberties Bureau (the precursor of the American Civil Liberties Union).

$700 Billion Rescue?

When they say $700 Billion.....take it with a grain of salt. Remember the National Debt? The clock says around 9 Trillion. Of course most of us know it is closer to 53 Trillion. So, is it possible they under estimated? Sure, or is it just another lie?

It seems the Democrats are pushing for earmark$ again. In an Yahoo news article by Julie Hirschfelt Davis, associated press writer, "Democrats are pushing to allow bankruptcy judges to rewrite mortgages to ease the burden on consumers who are facing foreclosure — a nonstarter for Republicans." Do they want to encourage more abuse?

She continues to say, "Democrats also want any potential proceeds the government reaps from the bailout to go to a fund designed to pay for housing for poor families. Many Republicans oppose the very existence of the fund, which they say is a backdoor means of funneling money to liberal political groups." It seems like the Democrats just can't keep from re-allocating other people's money. And they wonder why We the People are "up in arms" about this. I feel the Federal Government is too quick to push for a "solution" to an extremely big problem. I also believe most Americans feel that congress is going to screw this up no matter what the out come is. How can We the People be sure the money will be used appropriately.....since it hasn't been in the past?

ACLU Hits RI Governor With Lawsuit on Immigration.

Once again, the ACLU is usurping its authority by filing legal action to block RI governor from doing his job to protect his state from the stresses and strains that illegal immigration is causing.  It appears the state needs help not punishment (lawsuit causing dollars back to the ACLU). Shouldn't the ACLU be going after the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security?  To read the story as reported by The Associated Press, click on: ACLU Hits RI Governor With Lawsuit on Immigration above.

Sneaky Speaker Pelosi

HEADS UP FOLKS! Excellent article - besure you check out the "Resources By Distance" chart in the articles.

(From The Center of Individual Freedom web site)

More political games designed to dupe the American people! Increased prices at the pump! More dependence on oil from Iran, Venezuela and other foreign countries that HATE America!That basically sums up Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and her liberal cohorts’ plan to address our nation’s energy crisis.

Indeed, leave it to the Pelosi Politburo to pass a bill, literally in the dark of night, that EFFECTIVELY PROHIBITS domestic drilling and then try to sell the legislation to the American people as a measure that opens up domestic drilling!In case you missed it, here's the play by play on Pelosi’s energy “hoax”:

Judicial Supremacy

(Today, September 17, marks the 221st anniversary of the Constitution's signing by our nation's Founders. We need to respect and preserve it!)

There are three branches of government contained within The US Constitution: legislative, executive and judicial. These three brances were designed with checks and balances so that each branch can serve as a continuing check on the others. The judicial, I believe, is out of balance.
Phyllis Schlafly, in her book The Supremacists The Tyranny of Judges and How To Stop It, states, "The U.S. Constitution vests "all" legislative powers in the Congress. That means no legislative powers are granted to the courts. Yes, over the past fifty years, judges have become increasingly activist--legislating from the bench, and writing their own policies and attitudes into the law. In the latter half of the twentieth century, some of our most far-reaching social, economic and political decisions have been made by judges rather than by our elected representatives."

PROTECT OUR U.S. CONSTITUTION

LET'S PROTECT OUR U.S. CONSTITUTION; please be informed of the important issue of not allowing our Constitution to be amended to allow a non-natural born citizen to become President of our country. Protect the security of our country.

"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."
Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the United States Constitution· · · · · " Please read the information below: (provided by www.arnoldexposed.com)

In major national polls, the vast majority of Americans are against Arnold being able to run for President. Imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger, a man who says he's dreamed of being a dictator, having control of the nuclear launch codes as President.

If you are as concerned as we are about a Schwarzenegger presidency, or any foreigner gaining access to the highest office in the land, then please donate as much as you can to Americans Against Arnold so we can run radio and television ads around the country exposing Arnold and his agenda.

Contact your local media and government representatives and tell them about ArnoldExposed. Tell them that we deserve equal time, as Arnold's political operatives are already campaigning 24/7 to repeal Article 2, Section 5 of the United States Constitution. Fax and email them our press release repeatedly. Tell them how to contact us. Beg them to research the sinister statements of Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Please contact your entire email list with the URL (link) for ArnoldExposed.com. Post the below ArnoldExposed.com banners on your website, in the body of emails you send, or on message boards you visit.

Americans have to rise now to defeat this foreign threat to our country.

Battle Over Constitutional Theories in the 2008 Elections

Phyllis Schlafly of EagleForum.Org, has helped many become aware of the re-writing of the US Constitution by judges via her book The Supremacists The Tyranny of Judges and How to Stop It. Phyllis clearly shows us how judges undermind US sovereignty, promote pornography, censor acknowledgment of God, interfer with elections, grow judicial supremacy and more. While visiting EagleForum, I ran across an excellent article regarding constitutional theories by Virginia Armstrong. It is well worth reading. I have started the article here for you.

(However, after you have read the entire article, come back to this site and consider the following:

In the days of sixteenth and seventeenth century Kings, the King wrote the law, interpreted the law and judged the people. His decision was final and unquestionable.
The Reconstructionists want to act very much like a King when it comes to the U.S. Constitution. As I recall, we came to this country to relieve ourselves of the burdens imposed on the people by various European Kings, not the least of which was King George III of England.
All of the lands of the Earth, are already claimed by somebody. So there is no "New World" to escape to. If we want justice, accordingly to the Constitution, we have to adopt the Constitutionalists interpretation of the U.S. Constitution. To adopt the Reconstructionists point of view is the equivalent of returning to the law of the Kings.)

The Battle over Constitutional Theories in the 2008 Elections

By Virginia Armstrong, Ph.D., National Chairman

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Associate Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court (1902-1932), declared that, "Theory is the most important part of the dogma of the law, as the architect is the most important man who takes part in the building of a house." The theories that Supreme Court justices espouse produce the egregious decisions and doctrines of Reconstructionist cases, including the Roe and Casey decisions which we have been analyzing for several months.

Talking Points
Reconstructionist constitutional theory diametrically opposes Constitutionalist constitutional theory; and we must understand these theories in order to evaluate adequately, not only judicial decisions, but the theories held by candidates in the 2008 elections. Questions of constitutional theories have permeated, not just American law, but American culture in general. Therefore, all patriots need at least a cursory understanding of the opposing constitutional theories in today's Culture War. Three very broad and fundamental issues divide Constitutionalists from Reconstructionists. We shall summarize the three issues and then offer a view of the advocates of each theory concerning these issues.
