RSSWhat My Campaign Would Be
People always ask me what platform would I run on if I were to run for national office (House, Senate, President) so I thought I would tell you. This is what my campaign ad would focus on:
End wasteful government spending and pork handouts to States.
End unconstitutional federal welfare programs including Social Security, Medicare, etc. while returning every last dime of the money as has been collected and promised to those that paid it. No new persons shall be added to any of these programs.
Support the nomination of constitutionally minded Judges to our courts and the impeachment of those that violate the Constitution.
Increase funding for border security, and support the IMMEDIATE enforcement of all existing immigration laws and the deportation of illegal aliens.
Support increasing work visas for those that want to come here to work from foreign countries.
Fully support our soldiers in fighting terrorists and the nations that aid them. Give them all raises, taking the money to do this from the now ended social welfare programs ended above.
Support the immediate repeal of the 16th Amendment and the implementation of the Federal FairTax national retail sales tax.
End all federal subsidies (farm, etc.) not mandated by the Constitution.
Support the repeal of campaign finance reform and support the impeachment of every member of Congress that voted for it.
Support a complete repeal of all laws that infringe upon the second amendment.
Support the repeal of the 17th Amendment and return to appointment of Senators to the States as it was originally.
Support the prosecution of all crimes of Treason while we are at war.
Push for a decrease and eventual elimination of the federal gasoline tax.
Push for ending all unconstitutional federal agencies including the FDA, FEA, FCC, ATF, FEMA, etc.
Support the full and merciless prosecution under authority of the Constitution of anyone that performs abortions and infringes upon the unalienable right to life.
Would I win? Heck no! The socialist, entitlement, “GIMME GIMME GIMME” mentality is far too entrenched in our society and people think they are entitled to other people’s money.

Protecting Liberty Means Taking Action Yourself
This young man gets the concept of who is in charge of protecting liberties – yourself.
A 17-year-old student said he was only doing the right thing when he told authorities his friends were planning a Columbine-like attack on East High School last week.Matt Atkinson, introduced at a news conference late Wednesday, said he learned about the alleged plot by two students and a former student to attack the school the day before he told authorities.
“Do the right thing. That’s all I can say is do the right thing. There’s no harm in telling somebody about it,” Atkinson said.
He went home, he said, talked to his mother and decided he had to tell authorities. - Forbes
Veterans of my opinion know exactly how I feel about this kind of attitude which is often attempted to be squashed by those that want to get away with bullying or worse. Often times those that are doing things that they know they should not be doing and know the trouble they will get into if caught try to paint people such as Matt as a “squealer” or a “nark” or a “tattle tail”. But the fact of the matter is that those are just false names given by those who know what they are doing is wrong and fear the consequences of their actions.
If you see something wrong, or even down right criminal going on it is your responsibility as an American to report it even if it is not easy to do or might result in repercussions.
Now if we can only get Matt to teach this to people in our inner cities where crimes often go unsolved even when their are hundreds of witnesses because people fear the criminals more than doing the right thing.

Responses To My Post About Conservative Blogging
Seems my post about all the conservatives writing me recently asking for advice about their own sites and help with their liberal infestations has sparked some more responses.
This is one I particularly wanted to address from Fred:
Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I read your article about how conservatives were asking you for advice about their own blogs and that I got out of blogging about a year ago because I got tired of basically repeating myself over and over again and only having left wing nut cases responding to my posts.It just frustrated the Hell out of me!
So now I just read blogs like yours instead. How you keep doing this I have no idea!
My response:
Hey, I feel the same way at times. I probably cannot go more than a week without citing Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution at least once as well as Madison’s definition of “general Welfare” from Federalist 41 that sometimes I think “Oh God do I really have to repeat myself again?”
But you know why I keep going it? Because I’m right and because when I know I am right I don’t let up until everyone agrees with me. I just keep beating them over the head with the facts until they either give up and concede or die from the loss of blood.
Here’s another email from a reader, Jolie
I used to blog a little but I just got so burned out and depressed about the news each day that I had to give it up for my own sanity. You’re right, blogging isn’t for everyone especially when you want to talk about current events. I can’t believe that you find the sanity and time each day to comment on as much stuff as you do but I appreciate you being there especially because you wrap in so much humor (sometimes pretty dry :D) that your site makes me laugh!
My response:
Believe me there are weeks where by Monday evening I am burned out thinking that I cannot do any more this week. Sometimes I queue up some articles that aren’t date sensitive and run those for a day or two while I step back but almost every day there is something that I just HAVE to comment on. Some people have a passion for what they blog about and some do not. I happen to have a passion and that drives me forward each day.
And finally this one from Mark:
How the heck do you keep the site so liberal free? I gave up my blog two years ago because during the election I could not stand all the liberal crap being posted.Do you censor their comments? You must because I cannot believe how few post on your site.
No Mark, I do not censor liberals except for really vile comments such as threats and obscenity laced responses. You know why liberals don’t poke their heads in around here? It’s because I have a nice core of loyal readers who, while they do not always agree with me, are ready to jump on them and pound them into submission at the first sign of liberal psychobabble.
Plus there is my friend who goes by the callsign:TonyTMan and who posts here. He is quite a flaming liberal socialist but at least recognizes that the socialism we have here in the United States and that he wants is highly unconstitutional. Usually when he starts confronting a liberal poster they get stunned and cannot figure what is going on.
Unlike on liberal sites when a conservative posts and they just start going into “shotgun” mode trying to pull the conversation in 50 different directions to confuse the issue and avoid answering, myself and others here focus in like a laser beam and make sure liberals do not get away with making idiotic statements. I cite the constitution and provide actual and in context quotes from our founders to counter them. Eventually they just give up and decide to try and find shelter among their fellow travelers or pick on another blogger without as much knowledge.
The truth, as the saying goes, sets them free … free to go elsewhere and spread their insanity that is.

No, I’m not a “Republican Operative”
I really get tired of being called an operative for the Republican Party in emails by halfwits that don’t read this blog. These are the same halfwits that wouldn’t know what the Constitution said even if you quoted it to them, gave them a copy and then pointed right to the quote. They would still claim it said something else.
I spend a lot of time promoting positions completely 180 degrees out of phase with the Republican Party. I have spent a great amount of time railing against President Bush’s “amnesty” plan for illegal aliens. I have asked over and over where the Republicans find constitutional authority for expanding Medicare and the prescription drug programs. I have beat up on Republicans for excessive spending. I have railed against Republican support for unconstitutional programs such as farm subsidies and Social Security. I have called for Republicans such as Robert Ney of Ohio to be impeached.
What more do you moonbats writing and accusing me of this want?
Just because I agree with the weak willed socialists of the Republican Party MORE than the hard core socialists and communists of the Democratic Party does not make me “in league” with them.
So pull your heads out of your asses and actually read this blog before sending me emails.
Otherwise the only person who looks foolish is you.

Yes, Blogging Is GOOD Business
It seems recently that I have been besieged by a lot of at least slightly right leaning people who write their own blogs asking for advice. In fact I’ve gotten so many I figured I might as well make a post about it.
Most of these emails are from people complaining or at least softly whining about how no one is visiting their sites wandering if there are any conservatives out there at all and asking if it is worth it to keep going. They also ask if people actually visit my site and how to deal with the liberal moonbats that seem to be the only people that visit them and leave idiotic messages and responses.
Hey folks, that’s up to you what you want to do with your life. But if you are not up to running a site and dealing with the intellectual lightweights on the left then don’t do it. Leave it to the professionals!
This is a business for me. I own my own company which all of my sites are under. So yes, if you know what you are talking about and have something to say there certainly is an audience for it. But if you are just going to post and then come to people like myself asking for me to run over and respond to some Marxist, tin foil hat wearing troll because you are not capable of it yourself, please do us all a favor and get out of the “business”.
After all, if you cannot combat 9/11 conspiracy theorists who blatantly misquote witnesses to perpetuate their own idiocy and talk about how there is no way the World Trade Center could have collapsed without being a controlled demolition because the fire was not hot enough to “melt steel” then find a better use for your time. And I certainly do not have the time to frequent your sites and help you put down insurections.

Why Do I Blog?
Someone asked me today why I blog and about all things politics. The answer is simple. There is a lot of bad things going on in this country and around the world and people need to be made aware of them.
Blogging gets a bad rap from people two fronts. The first front is the people that don’t want information to be freely distributed and want to control said information. These people don’t want people to find out that the ACLU is trying to prevent private citizens from building a Katrina memorial which includes a cross on private land. These people don’t want the knowledge that yes indeed we have found Sarin and Mustard Gas in Iraq since we toppled Saddam Hussein. These people don’t want to have their own opinions scrutinized and hate it when someone else points out that their memos about President Bush’s military service were blatant forgeries.
The other front that gives us a bad name are blogs like the Daily KOSs of the world spewing vile lies and hate based upon those lies. They don’t simply report and comment on the news of the day but work so hard to spin everything to their advantage even when it is not.
I blog to help counter both of these problems; to expose what is going on in little reported stories and to provide opinions that are at least rooted in some facts. I blog because if I (and others) did not these voices would go largely unanswered and America would be done a huge disservice and opinions would be based on false information which is exactly the way those that would like to be in power want.

Intentionally Harm A Child? You Should Be Hung!
Prosecutor: Man Convinced Son He Was Ill
By JOHN CHRISTOFFERSENEricka Hollander’s search for answers about her son’s health began unraveling what prosecutors claim was a string of lies that her estranged husband wove to bilk a sympathetic public.
Her suspicions proved justified. Authorities say Michael Bradway, 38, engineered an elaborate scam that convinced dozens of people that his young son had cystic fibrosis.
He also convinced the child, prosecutors said.
Bradway was arraigned Thursday on charges of child abuse and larceny.
The boy, now 9, was put in state care last year and immediately began to gain weight and thrive, according to court papers. He now lives with his mother.
Bradway kept the boy thin and fabricated medical bills, fooling his estranged wife and in-laws for years, prosecutors said. He allegedly convinced his in-laws the boy needed a lung transplant and they contributed nearly $40,000 for the operation.
This man is worse than scum and lower than dirt. Doing this to a child should carry a death sentence.

Securing Our Ballot Boxes Is As Important As Securing Our Borders
We all know the drill. In purchasing alcohol or tobacco, cashing a check or boarding a plane, you need a picture ID. No ID; no dice. The practice is as routine as it is commonsensical.
But did you know that in order to vote in a national election—in order to exercise that most elemental aspect of democracy for which America’s founders waged a revolution—you need not show photo identification?
And if you need not show a picture ID, you need not show proof of citizenship when voting. Even Mexico recognizes the injustice, insecurity and fraud this system encourages, and so requires voters to (gasp!) present a picture of themselves when voting!
Why, then, doesn’t the United States require the same?
As the editors of the National Review observed, as long as we rely on nothing more than the honor system, we are effectively inviting the 12 million illegals already here to influence the American political process Does not the sanctity of the ballot box warrant as much protection as boarding a commercial airliner?
Thankfully, Congress has taken up this long-overdue cause, and earlier this week, the House of Representatives passed the Federal Election Integrity Act of 2006 (HR 4844).
The bill proposes two modest requirements: (1) proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote, and (2) some form of photo identification when voting. By the November 2008 election, states must check for such IDs, and by November 2010, only IDs that were issued with proof of citizenship will be valid for voting.
A recent NBC/Wall Street Journal poll showed that 81% of the American people favor an ID requirement for voting. In another poll by Rasmussen, 77% of likely voters agreed that a photo ID should be required to cast a vote. Indeed, 24 states already require voters to present some form of identification when voting, and seven of these require photo ID.
Yet since the courts have overturned some of these regulations—in Georgia, for instance—the time has come for a uniform federal standard.
So, using this form, please e-mail your senators and urge them to pass this eminently prudent, embarrassingly overdue, and admirably taut legislation.
Don’t let your vote be offset by someone who has no right to vote here in the first place!
Click here to tell your senators to pass HR 4844 today!

North Dakota To Punish Bad Judges
I’m going to say while I like the idea of punishing judges that violate the Constitution and the rights of the people with their rulings I do not necessarily like the way North Dakota is going about it.
Voters in South Dakota decided they didn’t like the liberal leanings of former U.S. Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, a Democrat, and voted him out of office in 2004. Then a year later they had their state legislators ban abortion.Now comes the newest statement on morals and conservative values from the roughly 800,000 people who live between Nebraska and North Dakota, Minnesota and Wyoming: A South Dakota Judicial Accountability plan that would require judges to follow the Constitution.
No more “discoveries” like the U.S. Supreme Court’s revelation of a “right” to sodomy, such as was featured in a Texas case not too long ago, plan supporters say.
Bill Stegmeier, the organizer for what will be Amendment E on this November’s election ballot in South Dakota, said the idea comes from a national organization promoting accountability for judges, but his is a state effort that has just come together.
“Actually, we had the timing right. Look at all the news, even national news, about judges out of control,” Stegmeier told WND.
The plan is fairly simple: A constantly rotating panel of South Dakota residents chosen randomly from voter registration lists would serve as a “super” grand jury. Anyone with a complaint against a judge that isn’t resolved by the judiciary could come to the panel.
Panel members would have the power to review cases and circumstances, and, if they determine it’s appropriate, strip a judge of his immunity for his decisions in court. - WorldNetDaily
Let me explain my reservations about this.
A group of citizens “chosen randomly from voter registration lists” is not in keeping with what I believe is the Republican ideal of government. In a Republican government, guaranteed by the Constitution to all citizens, persons are elected to represent the best interests of the people based on their ability to convince the people that they are up to the job. Perfect? No. Just look at some of the socialists and anti-constitutionalists we elect from Hillary Clinton to John McCain to Teddy Kennedy.
But a “random” panel to oversee the judges is dangerous. I understand what they are trying to do in instituting a system similar to the regular jury court system for other trials but when it comes to holding judges responsible for their violations of the Constitution I dare say I have trouble trusting a “random” group of people.
The Constitution is simple. It says what it means and means what it says. But at the same time I have found that the “random” citizen is more likely to only find objectionable those violations of the Constitution which do not benefit themselves. I dare say that such a panel will consist of far too many who would be all too eager to throw out a judge for upholding unconstitutional seizures of private land for a new shopping mall while seeing no problem what so ever with Social Security, Medicare and Welfare which are also highly unconstitutional. I dare say that many of the panelists will even be suckling at those nipples of government.
I would rather see North Dakotans elect a board to supervise the courts and have the panelists elected based on their qualifications and knowledge of the Constitution.

Why do people write me emails like this?
From Paulette:
You seem very angry with people you call ‘liberals’. Why is that?
Response:
Uh, have you read the site? Have you read how day after day I post stories about how they are stripping our liberties from us? I don’t think that I can make it any more obvious as to why I am “angry” with the political left do you?
Response from Paulette:
Well I see conservatives doing the same thing which is why I wondered.
Response:
No, I don’t think you do. You might see “Republicans” doing similar things but not “conservatives”. The number of elected conservatives in the Rupublican Party can be counted on my hands and toes.
