Terrorist Congressman D-MN5

The first terrorist elected to Congress, has apologized for comparing the Bush Administration to Hitler. I say B.S. Ellison is a liar, he hates the jews and the Bush Admistration.

Gulf War Then and Now.

It seems to me, if my memory serves me, that at the end of the 1991 Gulf War critics were screaming that the U.S. should have marched into Baghdad and removed Saddam Hussein. In '03-'04 we did that and now the same nutties are scream foul....what gives?

Oh, yeah... the left is void of ideas and convictions, thus they must be everything opposite a Republican.

The Do-Nothing 110th Congress Strikes Again

In a vote of 223 to 201, the anti-human rights, terrorist supporting, freedom hating, House of Representatives voted to withdraw U.S Troops from Iraq in 120 days. HR 2956 will go no where; the President, if the slim chance this bill makes it to his desk, will veto it.

The larger point is this: This has been the millionth-something Iraq, Anti-Troop measure since January. Add that to all the pointless political "investigations" and it begs the question, will we see any other legislative business the next year and a half? I mean, I like the fact that Congress is not out screwing me in the A$$, but there is important work to be done! Moreover, will their hatred for Bush lead to nothing EVER getting done? Did the Democrats run on an legislative agenda???

Inasmuch as the the Democratic leaders like to talk the talk, they have not and can not walk the walk.

GOD BLESS THE USA

Lee Greenwood's God Bless The USA is one of my all-time favorite songs, it's an anthem of sorts. I wanted to post it here today. If you don't have a copy of this song, go get it. If you do, listen to it and reflect on how great it is to be an American!

If tomorrow all the things were gone I’d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I’d thank my lucky stars to be living here today,
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can’t take that away.

And I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,

From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA,
Well, there’s pride in every American heart,
and it’s time to stand and say:

I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A

Happy Birthday America!

(Ed note: due to the fact I returned home late on the 4th, I did not post this yesterday).

The Declaration of Independence

IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776

A DECLARATION By the REPRESENTATIVES of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, In GENERAL CONGRESS assembled

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.

He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.

He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their Public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.

He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.

He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected, whereby the Legislative Powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.

He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.

He has obstructed the Administration of Justice by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers.

He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.

He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.

He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.

He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.

He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.

Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. — And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

An Inconvenient Lie

OH MY! This is good, really, really good! I just found this on Drudge tonight.

Iran's Nuclear Threat

According to an article in the Houston Chronicle, Iran's President is facing strong criticism at home from Conservatives in Iran.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad faced a new round of sharp criticism at home today after he said Iran's nuclear program is an unstoppable train without brakes. Reformers and conservatives said such tough talk only inflames the West as it considers further sanctions.

This comes days after it was reported in the New York Times that Iran was expanding it nuclear efforts in defiance of the U.N.

President Bush needs to keep the heat on Iran both militarily and diplomatically, because in my opinion, either option fails without the other.

The "Culture of Corruption" Continues

So much for ethical changes in Congress.

Carter: Too Many Jews on Holocaust Memorial Council

According to WorldNetDaily, in 1980, Monroe Freedman, executive director for the Holocaust Memorial Council, wrote Jimmy Carter a memo making recommendations for council board members. The response had a handwritten note in the corner stating, "too many Jews" In addition, a christian member had a name, "too Jewish."

What, not enough Nazis for you Mr. Carter.

I really don't see why people get all hyped up about Carter. He was a miserable President, his foreign policy stinks, and he really is a anti-Semite (as proved in this article and his most recent book).

But this also shows the hypocrisy's of the left. If Reagan or any other conservative had wrote or said these things, they would have been driven to a footnote in history. But, Dems get away with hatred/hate speech all the time. You got Robert, KKK, Bryd Senator in West Virginia; you got Carter,anti-Semite extraordinaire, as a noble peace prize winner; you got Mohammad Ellison Congressmen from Minnesota's 5th Congressional District. Not to mention all the other numerous idiotic things Dems have said, yet go unreported.

People will continue to think of Carter as someone great, and try to rewrite history of him and his presidency, but the truth is starting to see the day.

Nazis, uh er, liberals, uhhh, OH HELL THEY'RE ALL THE SAME

Those crazy Nazis are back at it.

Basically, we're burning degenerate books, so anything that's hateful toward the white race, anything that has to do with homosexuality or anything against our party policy," Schoen said. "We stand up for white people. We're the voice of white America"

Of course I strongly disagree with the above statement, but it should be pointed out that in one way or another those same intentions come from the Democrats and left wing fringe groups, i.e The Congressional Black Caucus-- we stand up/we're the voice for: for the little guy, the welfare queen, the gay and lesbian groups, etc..., of course that is unless you're white and want to join such said group.

Attorney General Lori Swanson said only a concerted effort by those who support diversity would quell the efforts of neo-Nazis and similar groups (I suppose she is implying Republicans, my emphasis). She wanted to participate in that, she said.

I think it's important for public officials to stand up and say, in our Minnesota, we don't tolerate hated and bigotry," she said.

That is unless you're a voter in the 5th Congressional district and voted for black Muslim, anti-Semite, anti-white candidate running for Congress.

Hillary '08

It is now official, Hillary is running for President.

"Saying I'm in and I'm in to win," Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York launched a historic campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination Saturday, bringing the prospect of a female president closer than ever before.

How involved Bill will be if she is elected, and can he simply stand by as First Man?

But what really gets me is all the drooling and ranting of the "potential" first female president-- or in the case of Osama Barack Obama the first black president.

Clinton's announcement buoyed Democratic activists who have long promoted female politicians. (hmmm, yet make fun and criticize Republican women candidates and elected officials, no hypocrisy there--my emphasis).

Why didn't we get this excitement when Elizabeth Dole was running for president or Alan Keyes? A great example is Condi Rice who is the first black female Secretary of State. If this was a democrat, we would still be hearing how historic this is. But, because they were republicans, it means nothing. Republicans, regardless of what the left says, has made more headway into equality; we don't need to look at a person as black or white, male female.

Back to Hillary, Triple A points out that Hillary has already received the pro-abortion endorsement of Emily's List.

"I am one of the millions of women who have waited all their lives to see the first woman sworn in as president of the United States-- and now we have our best opportunity to see that dream fulfilled," said Ellen Malcom, president of Emily's List, a women's political network. (PRO-ABORTION RIGHTS GROUP, again my emphasis).

Where were you in, i believe, 2000? Remember folks, it is not about "gender equality" or "race equality", it is about power and promotion of left wing agenda.

Members, May I Introduce the Queen... I mean Speaker

Yeah, and I'll post more on this, but the 110th Congress was sworn in this week with the Wicked Witch of the West as the Speaker. From what I hear and been reading, Americans, you better hold on to your wallet because it is going to be a whole lot lighter by 2009 (even worse if you live in LA LA Land of Minnesota).
