The Obama Amnesty Plan? - LOCK AND LOAD?

This video obviously is a fake, but is it possible that it could amnesty go something like this?

One never knows with the current adminstration! It does provide food for thought.

The Minnesota Supreme Court has ordered that Democrat Al Franken be certified as the winner of the state's long-running Senate race.
The high court rejected a legal challenge from Republican Norm Coleman, whose options for regaining the Senate seat are dwindling.
Justices said Franken is entitled to the election certificate he needs to assume office. When Franken is sworn in, he'll give Democrats a big enough majority to overcome Republican filibusters.
Coleman hasn't ruled out seeking federal court intervention.

ONE HAND ON YOUR LIGHT SWITCH, ONE HAND ON YOUR WALLET!

And, ladies and gentlemen, the facists are just ramping-up! Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.

A Lawyer's Dilema

For almost thirty years I have practiced law. Throughout this period, more than one-half of that practice has been criminal defense.

I have always had something of a problem with the term "criminal defense." It really is a misnomer. What we defense lawyers really do is "Constitutional Enforcement." It is not my job or mission to free criminals. It is my job to ensure that the government cannot deny any person of his liberty without following due process of law... stated differently, ensuring that governmentobeys the law in it's attempt to enforce the law and limit the individual's liberty.

That means that if the government violates the Constitution or laws in prosecution of a person, then there are sanctions which are imposed. For instance, evidence may be suppressed or a charge may be dismissed. The criminal justice system recognizes that liberty is so important and government is so powerful vis-a-vis the individual, that the courts must restrict the government to acting only within its delegated powers, or release the accused. Lawyers, that is, good lawyers, are not tied emotionally to their clients or pursuing an agenda other than that presented by their professional roles. This is why, even after a criminal killed my eldest son, I was able to continue doing a job that I love and that I know must be done.

Defense of the accused EQUALS defense of the liberty of all. Much like it is the pornographers which protect the First Amendment, it is the accused who defend and define the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. It is the thousands of accused persons, represented by thousands of lawyers in courtrooms throughout this country who every day fight to hold the government in check, so that its power is not abused, and individual liberty is respected and protected.

This brings me to the point of all this. Over the centuries of our existence as a nation, we have watched as individual liberty slowly was eroded. As government grows, that is to be expected and, of course, resisted. What we are experiencing in our country now, during our lifetimes, is a wholesale assault on individual liberty and individual rights.

You name it, it is regulated. Taxes, building codes, health codes, criminal statutes by the thousands...the list goes on and on. Now we are seeing the nationalization of banks, manufacturers, and insurance companies. The Federal Reserve answers to no one, and controls everyone. Nationalized health care is on the horizon. Cap and Trade simultaneously puts the governments hands on our wallets and thermostats.

The new administration, as did the last, literally is paying no attention to the Constitution, other than treating it as if it were a tired old piece of paper, just another piece of bureaucratic paper to be dealt with. Government now finds its fundamental principles to be inconvenient and unduly restrictive. Its answer, ignore it. The people will take it as hard and deep as we want to give it to them.

Our beloved Constitution is, however, not just a piece of paper, damn it! The Constitution is the very document, the source document, for the power which the government exercises. It is WE THE PEOPLE who gave power to the government, subject to very well thought out restrictions and limits on that power. Our founding fathers appreciated the need to limit government power and to protect individual liberties from abuse of that power.

What we see today presents to all law-abiding people a very serious dilema; If the Constitution gives the government the power to make and enforce laws and, as it seems, the government is now engaging in a continuing and relentless rejection of the Constitutional restrictions placed upon it, what then can be the response of the people?

Our national contract is being breached. The government is losing its legitimacy by ignoring its life-source and dishonoring the principles on upon which it's very existence relies. I ask the question; if the government is not obeying the Constitution, need the individual obey the laws which the government sets forth?

Therein, lies the dilema.

Watch lists, guns and government

Bob Barr

as published in The Atlanta Journal ConstitutionMonday, June 29, 2009 at 9:00 AM

The secret government "Terrorist Watch List," reportedly already swelled to more than 1.1 million names, will have an addendum, if gun control advocates in Congress have their way. This new addendum — also to be cloaked in secrecy — would empower the U.S. Attorney General to deny a person the ability to exercise their Second Amendment rights to purchase a firearm.

While it is not surprising that some members of Congress are again using fear of terrorism to implement a gun-control agenda, the openly unconstitutional legislative language proponents are employing is troubling.

Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.) is leading the effort in the Senate, while another well-known gun control advocate — Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) — is directing the House initiative. They have introduced identical bills — the "Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act of 2009." This proposal would give the attorney general the power to unilaterally and in secret develop a watch list of persons believed to be unworthy of possessing a firearm or any explosive.

This new "dangerous terrorist" watch list would include names based not on hard evidence of criminal activity, but on nothing more than the subjective conclusion by the attorney general that a person is "appropriately suspected" (whatever that means) of engaging in some manner of assisting or preparing for acts of domestic or international terrorism. The American people would never be privy to what criteria might be employed by the attorney general to determine whether someone is an "appropriate suspect," and they would have no way of knowing why they might be denied the ability to purchase a firearm.If a person were to be refused "permission" to purchase a firearm or explosive, and if they subsequently filed a lawsuit in federal court to find out why, the government still could keep such information secret. In other words, the attorney general could deny a U.S. citizen the ability to own a firearm, and never have to give the reason.

For legislators like Lautenberg and King, who apparently have absolute faith in unelected government officials to make the right decisions for the right reasons at the right times (and never be required to explain those decisions), one has only to consider the checkered history of post-9/11 "terrorist" watch lists to see the folly of such perspective. Stories abound of persons denied the ability to board a commercial aircraft, or greatly delayed in being allowed on board, for no reason other than their name erroneously appeared on some "watch list." Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.), and Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.), have been among this not-so-elite group.

A report earlier this year by the FBI's inspector general chronicled extensive internal problems with the terrorist watch list maintained by that agency. The IG found numerous examples of inaccuracies, incomplete entries, out-of-date information and inclusion of information "unrelated to terrorism." While the inconvenience of not being able to board an airliner for a business trip or a vacation can be a real headache, being refused the ability to purchase a firearm to protect one's life clearly raises the stakes.

The government already has remedies already at its disposal to keep firearms out of the hands of known or suspected terrorists. Under existing federal law, there are numerous categories of persons prohibited from purchasing or possessing firearms; including persons in violation of immigration laws, convicted felons, illicit drug users and others. And if a person truly is a known or suspected terrorist, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — as the federal law enforcement agency primarily responsible for enforcing the nation's gun laws — certainly should be made aware of that information. We don't need a secret, anti-Second Amendment watch list to implement effective law enforcement in America.

Am I on the list? Are you on the list? Who would have believed that this could happen in our great nation? Not me. This must be stopped. We must return to the fundamentals of American liberty. The shit's on, folks.

Arizona Legislature Considers New Trespassing Laws Against Illegal Aliens Phoenix -- The Arizona state House is considering a proposal to criminalize illegal [aliens] as trespassers if police have reasonable suspicion to check a person's immigration status and find it lacking.Christian Science MonitorIllegal aliens netted by local police could be released The Obama administration directive comes as the president begins to assert control of the immigration issue. Some [illegal aliens] swept up on minor charges such as fishing without a license won't face federal detention. Instead, they'll be released on their own recognizance under an Obama administration directive to a Nashville, Tenn., sheriff who charged 6,000 people with immigration crimes over the past 2-1/2 years. The "release on recognizance" order by Immigration and Customs Enforcement – a branch of the US Department of Homeland Security – could affect at least some of the 66 US law enforcement jurisdictions that are part of a controversial program which, in essence, deputizes local police to act as de facto immigration agents.

It does not hurt to read this several times.


Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law , St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the Presidential election:

· Number of States won by: Democrats: 19 Republicans: 29

· Square miles of land won by: Democrats: 580,000 Republicans: 2,427,000

· Population of counties won by: Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million

· Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.

If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

So Long Two MCO?: "If there is one major aspect of the QDR that I have insisted that we try and get away from, it is this construct that we've had, for such a long time, that we size our forces to be able to fight two major combat operations," so stated Defense Secretary Robert Gates last week at a Pentagon press briefing. Gates went on to say that he wants to focus on a so-called hybrid-warfare construct that accounts for "conflict in the future [that] will slide up and down a scale, both in scope or scale and lethality." Lawmakers are skeptical of the Pentagon's ongoing Quadrennial Defense Review, including Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-Hawaii) who says claims that the rationale for 2010 procurement decisions will become clear in the QDR are merely "a stall." House defense authorizers in their version of the 2010 defense bill would direct the Government Accountability Office to "assess the degree to which DOD is following the law during its QDR process." And, they would create an independent national defense panel to review the QDR's effectiveness, specifically to recommend how the panel would "improve the decision-making process for determining national security objectives." (This QDR, per senior defense officials, will be "leader driven" and carry forward Gates budget-driven reshaping.) There's more. The House defense authorizers also want the Pentagon to submit the force structure requirements "used to guide the QDR process," whether classified or not. (Gates June 18 press brief transcript)

Inquiring minds, if not the fluffy media, want to know.

For possibly the first time in your life you have a real job. I know you are enjoying your new job. I am glad. But DO NOT flush this great country! We the people-Americans, are proud of it. It is not yours to play intellectual games with.

As North Korea Threatens to Wipe America Off of the Map ...

...does our Apologist-in-Chief have a military plan for preventing it? I doubt it. He probably will be going back to the U.N. to ask it to send Kim Jong-Il to anger management class. Jeez!

I don't know about the rest of you, but I am beginning to become more than a little nervous, very, very edgy and, quite frankly, a little pissed-off. For years our military planners have warned of the danger to this country of a "three war" scenario. Pussy-footing around with madmen like the North Korean dictator just provokes them more and brings us ever closer to possibly termnal conflict. Just how many face-slaps must we take before we light 'em up, Barry?

He fires missles. We whine to the U.N. He pops-off a nuke. We whine to the U.N., and the U.N. imposes more sanctions. The U.N. imposes sanctions, he floats a ship suspected to be loaded with war material and dares us to touch it. We adopt "hail and inquire." Come on, Prez!

The most recent post that I have seen, from AP reveals new and more grave threats from the tinhorn dictator. See the story at:

So, what is your response, Mr. President? We have 28,500 troops on the peninsula. Thousands died, before you were born may I add, to free the South Korean people. You may be a hero to your followers, a rock star if you will, but the North Koreans smell OUR blood in the water.

They want to see if you, the new kid on the block, has huevos. Do you know what? Frankly, we want to know too! Many of us are tired of hearing what you wear, what your damn body looks like and how charming you are. Stop apologizing for America and show the world that we will not go quietly into the night humming Kumbaya!

More than 800 gun buyers on terrorist watch list

By EILEEN SULLIVAN, Associated Press Writer Eileen Sullivan, Associated Press Writer – Mon Jun 22, 5:23 pm ET

WASHINGTON – More than 800 gun purchases were approved after background checks in the last five years even though the buyers' names were on the government's terrorist watch list, investigators said Monday.

Being on the watch list is not among the nine factors, such as a felony conviction, that disqualify someone from buying a gun under federal law. More than 900 background checks between February 2004 and February 2009 turned up names on the watch list, and all but 98 were allowed to go through.

The watch list — maintained by the FBI and used by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies — is meant to identify known or suspected terrorists. However, the list has drawn criticism over the years for mistakes that have led to questioning and searches of innocent people.

The Government Accountability Office, the watchdog arm of Congress, provided the updated statistics in a new report. The GAO issued a report on the watch-list loophole in 2005, but no changes have been made to the law.

"The current law simply defies common sense," Sen. Frank Lautenberg said in a statement Monday. Lautenberg, D-N.J., has been calling for years to close the "terror gap" in the gun law and introduced legislation Monday to address this concern. "Known and suspected terrorists are exploiting a major loophole in our law, threatening our families and our communities," he said.
The FBI plans to analyze where people on the watch list are trying to purchase guns as well as other information, the GAO said.

There are about 400,000 people on the terror watch list, according to the FBI. Over the past two years, the agency has looked at 830 people who believe they are on the watch list by mistake. For privacy and national security reasons, the FBI does not acknowledge whether a person has been removed from the list.

The top lobbyist for the National Rifle Association said the terrorist watch list has poor integrity.
"Law-abiding Americans should not be treated like terrorists," the NRA's Chris Cox said. "To deny law-abiding people due process and their Second Amendment rights based on a secret list is not how we do things in America."

In 2007, the Justice Department supported legislation that would address the gap, but Congress did not act on it.

The Justice Department is reviewing Lautenberg's bill, department spokesman Dean Boyd said.

(So, let us summarize. The DHS identifies returning veterans and other patriots as right wing extremists [read, potential terrorists]. A New Jersey lib now seeks to limit arms sales to citizens who are on a secret watch-list which, according to the NRA, has "poor integrity." Wild Bill, on his blog, reports an upclick in BATFE scrutiny of citizens' gun ownership in border states. Link: http://godgunsfreespeech.blogspot.com/

Connect the dots, folks. Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.)

A Thought for Today

"You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man's age-old dream -- the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order -- or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. Regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would sacrifice freedom for security have embarked on this downward path. Plutarch warned, 'The real destroyer of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations and benefits."

PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR...READ THIS!HE MADE THIS SPEECH IN NEW YORK .

From an e-mail originated by Jerold L. Clark Jr

Formatting problems courtesy of "blogspot."

The Plan!

Robin Williams, wearing a shirt that says 'I love New York ' in Arabic. You gotta love Robin Williams. Even if he's nuts! Leave it to Robin Williamsto come up with the perfect plan. What we need now is for our UN Ambassadorto stand up and repeat this message Robin Williams' plan. (Hard to argue with this logic!) 'I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a plan forpeace. So, here's one plan.'

1).'The US will apologize to the world for our 'interference' in theiraffairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Tojo, Noriega,Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of those 'good 'ole' boys', we will never'interfere' again.

2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting withGermany , South Korea , the Middle East, and the Philippines . They don'twant us there. We would station troops at our borders. No one allowedsneaking through holes in the fence.

3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leaveWe'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will begathered up and deported immediately, regardless of whom or where they are.They're illegal! France will welcome them.

4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 daysunless given a special permit! No one from a terrorist nation will beallowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself and don't hidehere. Asylum would never be available to anyone. We don't need any more cabdrivers or 7-11 cashiers.

5) No foreign 'students' over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. Ifthey don't attend classes, they get a 'D' and it's back home baby.

6) The US will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy wise.This will include developing nonpolluting sources of energy but will requirea temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will haveto cope for a while.

7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel fortheir oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else. They can gosomewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the wells fillingup the storage sites would be enough.)

8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we willnot 'interfere.' They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cementor whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is stolen or givento the army. The people who need it most get very little, if anything.

9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island someplace. We don't needthe spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the building would make agood homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.

10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one cancall us 'Ugly Americans' any longer.

The Language we speak is ENGLISH learnit...or LEAVE...

Now, isn't that a winner of a plan?

'The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your tired, your poor,your huddled masses.'She's got a baseball bat and she's yelling,'you want apiece of me?'

If you agree with the above forward it to friends..If not, and I would beamazed, DELETE it!!

AND SO SAY ALL OF US. ROBIN WILLIAMS FOR PRESIDENT!

Gates: US puts more missile defense around Hawaii


By ANNE GEARAN, AP National Security Writer Anne Gearan, Ap National Security Writer – 35 mins ago
WASHINGTON – The United States has positioned more missile defenses around Hawaii as a precaution against a possible North Korean launch across the Pacific, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Thursday. "We do have some concerns if they were to launch a missile to the west in the direction of Hawaii," Gates said.
Gates told reporters at the Pentagon he has sent the military's ground-based mobile missile system to Hawaii, and positioned a radar system nearby. Together the systems theoretically could detect and shoot down a North Korean missile if it came to that.
"Without telegraphing what we will do, I would just say ... we are in a good position, should it become necessary, to protect Americans and American territory," Gates said.
A Japanese newspaper reported Thursday that North Korea might fire its most advanced ballistic missile toward Hawaii around the Fourth of July holiday.
A new missile launch — though not expected to reach U.S. territory — would be a brazen slap in the face of the international community, which punished North Korea with new U.N. sanctions for conducting a second nuclear test on May 25 in defiance of a U.N. ban.
North Korea spurned the U.N. Security Council resolution with threats of war and pledges to expand its nuclear bomb-making program.
The missile now being readied in the North is believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers), and would be launched from North Korea's Dongchang-ni site on the northwestern coast sometime around July 4, Independence Day in U.S., the Yomiuri newspaper said.
It cited an analysis by Japan's Defense Ministry and intelligence gathered by U.S. reconnaissance satellites.

Outrage. Miranda Rights to Be Read to Enemy Combatants and Terrorists!

Miranda Warnings for Terrorists — Thank Sen. McCain [by Andy McCarthy, June 10, 2009]

Steve Hayes is getting lots of well deserved attention for his report at The Weekly Standard today about how the Obama/Holder Justice Department has quietly instructed the FBI to start giving Miranda warnings to captured alien combatant terrorists — the next logical move in the ongoing effort to move us away from a war approach and return us to the law-enforcement paradigm for dealing with international terrorism.

Obama will obviously be embarrassed by the revelation, especially since, as the Standard's John McCormack recounts, candidate Obama (and fledgling President Obama) scoffed at the claim by us knuckle-draggers that he wanted foreign terrorists to get Miranda protection upon capture. But once he recovers his footing, I guarantee the president will argue that he is merely bringing government agents operating overseas into compliance with the McCain Amendment (enacted as part of the 2005 Detainee Treatment Act).

I hate to say I told you so, but back when we were having this debate, thanks to Senator McCain's grandstanding on "torture," I warned that his amendment would lead to the legal claim that American agents — including the military — were now required to give Miranda warnings to captured terrorists outside the U.S. (See, e.g., here, here, here and here (under "The Domestic Agenda")). Live by demagoguery, die by demagoguery.

End of Article.

They absolutely are off the charts this time! These people are not common criminals, they are our enemies in an ongoing war, that the new, revisionist administration has re-titled as something other than a war. Playing semantics is dangerous and foolish, and it will be our undoing.

For those of you who do not know the Miranda rights text, and the impact of applying the same to Taliban and other terrorists, let me be of assistance.

You have a right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.

You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him present with you while you are being questioned.

If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before any questioning if you wish. You can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any question or make any statements.

Do you understand each of these rights I have explainted to you? Having these rights in mind, do you wish to talk to us now?

Our soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines, as well as our other victim-citizens, did not get to choose whether or not they remain silent.

Truth Eternal

"The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men."

Open-borders alert: White House preparing to gut E-Verify
By Michelle Malkin • June 11, 2009 03:31 PM

One of the few things the Bush administration did right on immigration enforcement was to strengthen and expand the E-Verify citizenship verification system for employers.
A Senate aide tells me this afternoon that the Obama White House is preparing to gut the program.

Buzz on the Hill is that Team Obama will repeal some of the Executive Orders from the Bush Administration dealing with E-verify and so-called “No Match” Social Security number notices.
Here’s what I’m hearing:

1. In the case of companies that have federal contracts, the employer will not have to use E-verify to check the employment eligibility of his current employees, only new hires as a result of the federal contract.

a. So for example, X Lumber could have 15 illegal’s working for them right now who are illegal. If X lumber gets a federal contract they will not have to verify the employment eligibility of those 15 illegal’s. So they will receive a federal contract and our tax payer dollars will go to paying the salary of illegal workers.

2. E-verify requirements will stay in place for new hires.

a. So if X Lumber has to hire 4 more people as part of their federal contract they will be required to verify those workers.

3. DHS could also announce that it will rescind the No Match rule, which provides a safe harbor process for employers who receive a No Match letter from SSA, can follow in order to terminate the employee without repercussion. SSA “no-match” letters alert employers to the fact that they have submitted Social Security tax withholdings based on Social Security account numbers that do not match SSA records as to issued numbers and corresponding names.

The rule, which will be rescinded – proposed as a “safe harbor” for employers – steps to be taken when they receive a No Match letter from SSA. If the steps are taken for the employees who submitted suspect Social Security numbers and if the employer is later audited/investigated by DHS for hiring illegal immigrants, the employer can use the fact that he took the steps laid out in the rule as a defense to a charge of illegally employing those illegal immigrants for which the No Match letter was issued.

Businesses requested that such a process be laid out so that they were no longer subject to lawsuits.

Stay tuned and make sure your congressional reps have this on their radar screens: 202-224-3121.

Obama's alleged kindergarten class (photo: Maui News)
While nearly 400,000 concerned citizens demand President Obama present his elusive "long-form" birth certificate, more than a dozen other documents remain unreleased or otherwise blocked from the public eye.
Numerous documents which have yet to be surrendered include the following.
Obama kindergarten records
The Maui News reported that Obama attended kindergarten at Noelani Elementary School on Oahu during the school year 1966-67. It released a photo of two teachers, Katherine Nakamoto and Aimee Yatsushiro, with five students. The teachers claim one of the children is Barack Obama.
According to the Hawaii Department of Education, students must submit a birth certificate to register. Parents may bring a passport or student visa if the child is from a foreign country.
So far, no records have been released by the school. Noelani Elementary School officials have not responded to WND's request for comment.

DIVORCE AGREEMENT THIS IS SO INCREDIBLY WELL PUT AND I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT'S BY A YOUNG PERSON, A STUDENT!!!

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists, Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce.

I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement: Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement.

After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU, and abortion clinics. Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.

You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell... We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks, and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain.

You can also have the U.N., but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right.

We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute, "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing", "Kum Ba Ya" or "We Are the World".

We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot.

Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely, John J. Wall0ALaw Student and an American P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand and Jane Fonda with you.

Be Aware At All Times

A Way to Thank Our Troops

Have you ever seen one of our military walking past you and wanted to convey to them your thanks, but weren't sure how or it felt awkward? Recently, a gentleman from Seattle created a gesture which could be used and has started a movement to get the word out.

Please everybody take just a moment to watch.... The Gratitude Campaign; THEN START USING THE SIGN.

A Little Less Talk, and a Lot More Action!

I started this blog last month after visiting my friend Wild Bill's blog (see, link). It is my political anger management.

As I daily have worked through the links, articles, videos and other media that rail against the impending destruction of our great nation, one conclusion has to me become unavoidable and clear. It will take more than observing, bitching, blogging, protesting and drinking to get us through our current and upcoming trials. We must act.

As old SSgt. Oldham so delicately put it during basic training, "Get your *ucking head out of your *ucking ass, Airman!" Below is posted the epiphany which followed this morning's resounding "pop." Now, as then, the forbidden posture is not only medically inadvisable, but it prevents one from seeing, understanding, planning and completing any mission.

Here we go.

The Left figured it out. They didn't just demonstrate and join the Democratic party. They stole the Democratic party. They started with the protests against the Vietnam war. They wrote. They taught. They learned. There was no internet, so they organized. They moved into the neighborhoods and organized the people at a grassroots level...one-at-a-time. They infiltrated the bureacracy, the courts, the legislatures and the power centers...first on a local then on state, regional and, finally, the national level. They worked. They worked long. They worked hard! Now, we have Obama and our current unhappy circumstances.

At the very least, we should acknowledge their hard work and perserverance. And...we should learn. As an army which has been defeated by the creative tactics and strategies of an adversary, we should take what we have learned from the Left and apply these lessons to retake our nation. We must regroup, adapt, and attack the problem at hand. And, I am not talking about trying to defeat a nuclear powered government with small arms. I am talking about doing to the Left what they have done to us. We must win over the people, one-by-one, and get this great country back on track.

It is said that insanity is when one repeatedly takes the same action, expecting a different result. If we continue to hang on to the old strategies and tactics, we will not revive the United States of America and it will fall to the machinations of the Democratic Socialists. It is not enough to blog, complain, pound our collective chests, write our congressmen and have an occasional tax protest. It will not be enough to just work to elect conservative candidates. We must work as hard to get our government back as the Left did to take it from us. All of the above will help, but we can only be successful by the grassroots organization of the people, persuasion of the people and, above all, by coming up with a PLAN!

Remember, we are not revolutionaries...we are counter-revolutionaries.

So, I asked myself, "Where do we start?" As with any endeavor, we must start with the first steps. "What are those steps," Grasshopper asked. Well, folks, I will share the intial steps I conceived for myself, and offer the same for your consideration. Since everyone loves a 12-step program, here is mine.

LawyerBob's 12 Step Plan

1. I will continue reading, writing and blogging. It will keep my spirit and motivation high.

2. When sitting at a coffee shop, or in front of the local tobacco store, or in any place, talking smack about the never- ending and latest bad news, I will ask my collegues this question; "What can we do to fix it?" I will listen and incorporate the good stuff, and reject the bad.

3. I still will attend and speak at protests, but instead of railing at the problem, revisiting history and rattling a puny battle sword, I will I will ask this question; "What is your plan to fix it?" I will await an answer. I will listen and incorporate the good stuff, and reject the bad.

4. I will no longer bother trying to persuade my Leftist friends that our Constitution and

values are worth saving. They do not listen. Such efforts are like throwing pearls before

swine.

5. I will invite a small group of like-minded, rational and conservative friends to meet and

consider stategies and tactics to take back our town, county, state, region and, ultimately,

our country. This does not have to be a black-tie affair. Remember, this nation was

born because our founders, predominated by lawyers, drank ale. Lot's of ale. When they drank and talked, they plotted a path to our now threatened freedom. We will add to our small group, one-at-a-time.

6. I will wear my politics on my sleeve. In other words, this battle is on. No

more will I whine and complain, when I can plan and execute. Do you remember the Code of Conduct? Why not apply it in these dire circumstances. I am an American fighting man. Period. You cannot have my country. You will not have my country. You are on notice: I no longer am sitting on the couch griping about your sissy ass. This shit is on. And you, my little politically correct, sexually disoriented, mind-numbed, fluffies, are my targets. You are going down and you are going down hard!

7. I will form alliances with others who share my belief in this country, regardless of whether

or not I like the persons. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

8. Although a person may share my beliefs and values, I will shun he whose first

response is armed insurrection. At this point, insurrection is unnecessary,

impractical and, whether successful or not, it would destroy the very country we seek to

preserve. They who think they can battle a B-1 bomber with a Colt 1911 are fruit-loops which must be avoided, at least for now.

9. I will talk anyone who will listen, especially to those who may not agree with me, if they are open to my ideas about my country. I will persuade those whom I can. I will walk away from the rest. I am no bible student, but I think it was John the Baptist or Paul the Apostle who told the believers to not worry about him being in prison, because each change of the guard brought a new opportunity to convert another to the path of Christ. We should adopt that positive attitude.

1o. Once the intial steps are taken, I will attempt to organize on a local level and recruit others to seek political and electoral victory for conservative Americans at all levels of government.

11. I will attempt to establish in my community, and encourage others to establish in theirs, a "speaker's corner," a place where the free flow of ideas between persons actually facing each other will energize our cause. The internet is great, but if you are reading this, I do not know who you are. I want to know my friends...and my adversaries.

12. I will keep my oaths.

As our friend Toby Keith sang, we need, "A little less talk and a lot more action." We need to kick a little ass. It's time to get off our asses, and jump on theirs. If, after reading this, you have heard your own "pop," leave a comment with more suggestions for action.

There. We have mapped a journey, the destination of which is our beginning, left to us by our founders. We have a mission, to retake this nation. We have a path, illuminated by the spirit of God. I have you, and you have me and there are many others. And, we have Toby Keith's music to make the journey more enjoyable.

Let's Rock! The alternative is the death of American freedom as we have known it. The reward for victory, freedom, priceless.
