The musing and explorations of an agitated elder. Among my ramblings will be thoughts on U.S. politics, personal investing, RV camping, and discussions with others having interests in common.

Obama Assault On Our Second Amendment Rights

According to Attorney General Holder,
"WE HAVE NO RIGHT TO POSSESS GUNS."
Attorney General Eric Holder has already said this is one of his major issues. He does not believe the 2nd Amendment gives individuals the right to bear arms.
I guess USA Today was not happy with the
results of their first poll concerning the Second Amendment so they are running another poll.

Betrayal is hard to take, whether in
our personal lives or in the political life of the nation. Yet there are people
in Washington — too often, Republicans — who start living in the Beltway
atmosphere, and start forgetting those hundreds of millions of Americans beyond
the Beltway who trusted them to do right by them, to use their wisdom instead of
their cleverness.
As we and our fellow citizens observe this Independence Day commemorating the adoption of the Declarationof Independence on July 4, 1776, it is appropriate that each
of us reflect upon the events of this past week and the decision reached by our
Supreme Court this past Thursday. After
236 years of liberty and freedom under the protection of our Declaration of
Independence and the Constitution of our nation, Chief Justice Roberts has
single handedly brought that history and tradition to a halt.
Why did he do it? Why did this respected conservative uphold
what seems to be a dictatorial seizure of power — to order every citizen to buy
health insurance or be punished and fined?
Congress can do this, wrote Roberts, because even if President
Obama and his solicitor general insist the fine is not a tax, we can call it a
tax:
“If a statute has two possible
meanings, one of which violates the Constitution, courts should adopt the
meaning that does not do so. … If the mandate is in effect just a tax hike on
certain taxpayers who do not have health insurance, it may be within Congress’s
constitutional power to tax.”
Roberts is saying that if Congress, in order to stimulate the
economy, orders every middle-class American to buy a new car or face a $5,000
fine, such a mandate is within its power.
Until now, Congress could indeed offer tax credits as an
incentive for buying a new car. But if a man would prefer to bank his money and
not buy a new car, can Congress order him to buy one — and fine him [a
penalty] if he refuses?
Roberts has just said that Congress has that power.
Be assured that that fact has not escaped president Obama! If he is re-elected this fall, do not be
surprised if he and the Democrats use that new power to impose their will and
vision for a new society on this nation.
As the Chief Justice wrote in his opinion:
“We (the
Court) possess neither the expertise nor the prerogative to make policy
judgments. Those decisions are entrusted to our nation’s elected leaders, who
can be thrown out of office if the people disagree with them. It is not our job
to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices.”
It is my sincere hope that “the people” of this
great nation will think long and hard on this Independence Day about what has just
transpired and the consequences of their past electoral actions or inactions. Consider what must be done in the coming
general election least we may have just witnessed the opening of the final
chapter of “the great experiment”.

Obama’s Wars – The Dirty Dozen
After more than three years in office, it should be obvious
to everyone that President Obama has a “progressive” agenda but my guess is
that most folks tend to focus on the one or two issues that affect them most directly
and dismiss the rest as just more political rhetoric on the part of his conservative
opponents. Besides, he’s such a
likeable guy … and smart too. Surely any
president that has spoken some form of “I” or “me” more than 16,000 times during
his first eighteen months in office is more focused on the state and needs of
the nation than on himself! Right?
Give me a break! He’s
focused alright, like a fox on the chicken coop … and we’re all candidates on
his lunch menu.
Obama has been busy waging war on multiple fronts since the
day he was sworn in. David Limbaugh
identifies no less than twelve in his newest book, The Great Destroyer – Barack Obama’s War on the Republic.
·
The War on America
·
The War on the Right
·
The War on the Disobedient
·
The War on Our Culture and Values
·
The War on the Economy
·
The War on Our Future
·
The War on Oil
·
The War on Other Energy Sources
·
The War on Business
·
The War on America’s National Security
·
The War on Guns: Operation Fast & Furious
·
The War on the Dignity of His Office
Each of the above is a chapter, replete with documented and
annotated examples of Obama’s misdeeds, power grabs, congressional outflanking
maneuvers and outright violations of the laws of our states and country.
If you value your rights and freedom, I urge you to read The Great Destroyer – Barack Obama’s War on
the Republic. You owe it to
yourself, your family and friends, your neighbors and county.
