A city in Florida is actually fining a man $500.00 a day for posting the words of the First Amendment on his building.
Florida city 'spitting in veterans' faces'
Most of you will find this a little funny but I, for one, find it terrifying. Think about what a government would do if it is willing to fine someone for displaying the very words of our Constitution that protect his right to speak. The irony is almost unbearable. How far would such a government go under the cover of night? How far would it go if it gets away with this garbage?
You should fear any government that would oppress its people in bold defiance of the very document from which it derives its power. This is funny on some level, but it is far more terrifying on the surface. No truly free country would even consider this kind of oppression, let alone actually doing it openly and flagrantly.
Hopefully, the tyrannical arrogance of Clearwater Florida will be defeated rather than spread to other city governments.
This kind of tyranny is why I started this blog and it is why I shall never allow my own voice to be silenced. Indeed, the harder any tyranny tries to silence my voice, the louder it will become.

Good Bye Security and Freedom
IT'S HERE!!!
The FAILED assault weapons ban is back. Is anyone surprised? No. I thought not.
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=6960824&page=1
One funny part of the article is the reason for re-instituting the ban. MEXICO. Seriously, Mexico.
"Mexican government officials have complained that the availability of sophisticated guns from the United States have emboldened drug traffickers to fight over access routes into the U.S."
That is one of the funniest things I have ever read. Mexico is complaining about American guns flooding into Mexico. Am I the only one who gets the irony here? A country that is so corrupt that its criminals flee by the millions and commit crimes in our country and THEY are complaining that it is our "sophisticated" guns that cause crime in their country???
Where am I? If this is not Bizarro World then I am either lost or certifiably insane.

You Now Owe Obama $62,000.00!!!
The Obama stimulus package will cost the average taxpayer $62,000, if you paid it today.
http://foxforum.blogs.foxnews.com/2009/02/16/lott_obama_stimulus/
Considering that the stimulus package is only the tip of the Obama spending iceberg and that you are repaying the stimulus money over time with interest, a paltry $62000.00 looks silly in comparison to the real cost.
Obama has literally enslaved you, your children, and your grandchildren.
Even setting aside the ludicrous uses of the stimulus money, the sheer amount of your personal burden should outrage you. If not, nothing will.

California is Stealing from its Own People
California is stealing taxpayers' refunds!!!
This is fantastic. First of all, most people who get refunds are really getting a windfall. For them not to get that windfall is just simple justice. For those who actually paid some taxes and they are being deprived of their rightful overpayment, that is simple injustice. The simple reality here, however, is that income taxes are the epitome of injustice. Indeed, taxing a person's income is not simply unjust; it is evil
What really matters here though are those withheld refunds from the people who did not even pay taxes. Those people, the serfs with their greedy, lazy, unwashed hands out, will be the source of the any civil unrest over this issue. Their outrage for not having other peoples' income redistributed to them will cause outrage. There will be some outrage over the stolen overpayments too but those people are hard-working, family oriented, and clean themselves they won't riot over the issue. They will sue however.
My predictions if California actually holds these refunds for a year or more.
1. People whose "refunds" were actually more than they paid in taxes will gather and demonstrate and possibly even riot.
2. California will change its tax code or pass some other law allowing it to keep the refunds permanently.
3. Even after passing a law to allow it to keep the refunds permanently, California will still give "refunds" to those who who never actually paid taxes. It is only the actual overpayments of those who paid that will be kept. Redistribution of wealth will NEVER shrink. Duh.
One final point. Income tax is theft pure and simple. But, when the government violates its own oppressive and confiscatory laws like California has done you know real tyranny is right over your shoulder.

Gun Owner Licensing H.R. 45
I warned you that gun owner licensing was coming. Well here it is.
http://www.nraila.org/Legislation/Federal/Read.aspx?id=4329
It is time to choose. Will you license yourself with the federal government and be subject to revocation, harassment, confiscation, imprisonment, and death? Or, will you refuse to license and risk the same?
Buckle up people; I smell a war.

Obama Should Fail
Below is my response to the Democrats attempt to silence Rush Limbaugh.
Obama should fail. His policies will enslave the American people if he succeeds. You democrats simply do not understand freedom. Government should leave us alone and allow us to pursue life, liberty, and happiness without governing every aspect of our lives.
Your taxes, environmental polices, and entitlement programs will destroy this country. Are you so stupid as to actually believe that the solution to our problems is more regulation and oppression when it is that regulation and oppression that created our problems in the first place?
You are not fooling everyone. Many of us understand your game of creating problems, blaming the spineless Republicans for those problems, and then saving the world from those problems. Stop legislating and our problems and go away. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.
Rush Limbaugh and others like him will never be silenced. No matter how much you try to destroy freedom in this country, you will fail.
Your Gestapo tactics at silencing the opposition like Rush will backfire on you. You will have only yourselves to blame when another Ronald Reagan emerges from the ashes of the destruction you cause.
Obama will fail and this country will be better off when he does.

Power to the People!!!
Saving energy is ludicrous. In a stupid effort to go green, for example, Great Britain has already banned 100 watt incandescent light bulbs and the plazma TV.
Let me say this as clearly as I can. We should not be working so hard to save energy. Saving energy allows government to pass oppressive and expensive laws which effectively control every aspect of your life in one way or another. They will decide if you can have light and then how much and when you can have it. They will decide how large your refrigerator will be if they allow you to own one at all. And they will decide how much air conditioning (if any) you will get in the summer and how much heat (if any) you will get in the winter. My advice -- buy a sweater.
The answer to an energy shortage is so much easier that saving energy anyway. Simply produce more energy. But not government. People. If more people had privately owned power sources all energy shortages would be solved. Power would flow cheaper and easier than it does now and no one could control your power usage except for you.
An average household could meet all its needs and more with solar and wind power if the government would allow it. We would be free from the grid, free from government control of our power usage amount, and free from someone else dictating the types of devices we could use.
A government is a dictatorship when it oppresses the people with ridiculous laws aimed at a problem the government itself created when a better, cheaper, and less oppressive solution is available. As long as government controls your energy they control you.
Welcome to the dark ages.

Consumer Safety = Consumer Oppression
As of February 10, 2009 you will no longer be able to buy used or inexpensive toys or clothing. Deseret Industries and the Salvation Army Thrift Stores are effectively dead. Watch for eBay sellers to be criminally prosecuted too. Civil penalties are $100,000 per violation with criminal fines also available. Violators can also expect up to five years in prison and forfeiture of their assets even if they were not aware of the violations.
The reason for this outrageous oppression is that the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act will be in place and bans the sale of anything that is for children that has not been extensively tested for lead. The ban includes even wood and other natural products that cannot possibly contain lead.
Read this article to see just how far this ludicrous law goes.
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=85542
The only way to comply with the law is to test the products or target the products for adults. Expect your action figures to either cost ten times their current price, disappear completely, or to come with removable genitals to avoid the testing requirement.
Personally, I am really excited to see whether or not the LDS Church closes every Deseret Industries in the country or whether they operate in violation of this new law. My guess is that by February 10th there will be exceptions in place so the Church can avoid the issue but I will be watching closely either way.

Hillary's Appointment to Secretary of State is Illegal
According to the media and your Congress Hillary can serve as Secretary of State even though the United States Constitution says she can't.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081211/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/clinton_pay
I have said it before and I will say it again, the Constitution is not hanging by a thread. IT IS DEAD. The Emoluments Clause prevents Hillary from serving. Period. Congress justifies ignoring the Constitution on the grounds that they lowered Clinton's pay. That is not what the Constitution says. It completely bars her.
The Media love this blatant violation. Notice that the headline of the attached article redirects your attention from the illegality of the appointment to her salary amount. They totally gloss over the illegality of Congress' action. Then, in the text they call the Emoluments Clause "obscure" as if that somehow means it doesn't count.
Reagan refused to appoint Orrin Hatch to the Supreme Court based on the Emoluments Clause. He understood and upheld the Constitution. Plus, he probably knew Hatch was a power hungry bonehead, but I digress.
Apparently no one else cares about that irritating Constitution. Why don't we just burn the damn thing already? Its ashes won't have any less meaning that its now "obscure" and totally meaningless words.

Republican Party Impotent by Liberal Design
This monologue from Rush Limbaugh says exactly what I have been saying for the last 17 years about the manipulation of the Republican party by liberals. Read it and discover why I left the Republican Party a decade ago.
