Great Signs from the Tea Party  

Saturday, February 28, 2009

I've never been much of a picket-line protester, but why not communicate with liberal nutbags on a level they understand? These protests I fully support.

Michelle Malkin
is posting some awesome messages the people have had for those selling us up the river in Washington. Some signs from the Tea Party gatherings include:

Proud American Capitalist

Repeal the pork or your bacon is cooked

Wake up federal government - out of control change sucks

(small child's t-shirt) Obama! Get your hands out of my piggy bank!

Bailouts are robbery!

Free markets not free loaders

What part of the Constitution do you not understand?

No taxation without deliberation

Big government is the nightmare in my closet

(small child's sign) I read as much of the stimulus bill as my congressman

Stimulate business not govt

No more bailouts

Government healthcare is DEATH

Your mortgage is not my problem

Liberty: All the stimulus we need.


My favorite was one that wasn't on a sign, but in one of Michelle's comment threads:

I’ll keep my guns, you keep the change.
-"Arizona Neanderthal"

Delfts Quotes Wisdom - AGAIN  

Friday, February 27, 2009

Delfts posted this.

Truer words were ne'er spake!

Pithy observations

"Police Protection" is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect
themselves. Police do not protect you from crime; they usually just
investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to
clean up the mess. (Having been a LEO with twelve years on the streets, I can personally attest to this.)

Remember: the average response time to a 911 call is over 4 minutes.
The average response time of a 357 magnum is 1400 FPS. (feet per
second)

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too
old to take an ass whoopin.

Soldier Doubts Eligibility  

Tuesday, February 24, 2009

This doesn't seem to be going away.


2nd Lieutenant Scott Easterling


Honestly, I don't see what the big deal is about Mr. Obama showing his original vault birth certificate as ordered by the courts. I don't even understand why a court order was necessary. He should have showed it from the get-go.

What Mr. Obama showed as "proof" of natural-born citizenship was a rcent birth certification of live birth from Hawaii that DOES NOT REQUIRE birth in Hawaii to acquire. It isn't worth the paper it's printed on as proof of natural-born citizenship.

More voices are being raised, and it's my opinion that Mr. Obama had better show what he's being asked for, or there are going to be dire consequences for him, especially once his stiffulus fails. People are going to be looking for a reason to kick him out.

Tea Party USA  

Saturday, February 21, 2009

Michelle Malkin is covering this movement. I think it's awesome, and anyone who can free up the time to get involved should do so.


The modern version of the Boston Tea Party! It's incredibly appropriate to the situation!

The Bill of No Rights  

This was linked at MichelleMalkin.com, and it's so incredibly perfect that I'm just re-posting it in its entirety. Enjoy!

The Bill of No Rights

As seen in "Rights, Responsibilities, and Communitarianism," the existence of a right implies a duty in others. The opposite of a duty is liberty, which implies no right in others. The identification of things for which there are no rights is thus an additional means of securing Liberty. The following is a list of no rights (or "non rights") that has been circulating on the Internet. It is sometimes said to have been written by State Representative Mitchell Kaye from Cobb County, Georgia. Now I am informed that it was really written and copyrighted by an active Libertarian from Mississippi, Lewis Napper. I have altered the common version slightly, inserting punctuation and changing the wording in a couple of places, but it is substantially identical to the circulating list, including the exhortation at the end.
We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior and secure the blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our great great-great grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional, and other liberal bedwetters.

We hold these truths to be self-evident: That a whole lot of people were confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of Non Rights.

ARTICLE I -- You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any form of wealth.

More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.

ARTICLE II -- You do not have the right to never be offended.

This country is based on freedom, and that means the freedom for everyone, not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc., but the world is full of idiots and probably always will be.

ARTICLE III -- You do not have the right to be free from harm.

If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful. Do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV -- You do not have the right to free food and housing.

Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generations of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes.

ARTICLE V -- You do not have the right to free health care.

That would be nice but, from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in government run health care.

ARTICLE VI -- You do not have the right to physically harm other people.

If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

ARTICLE VII -- You do not have the right to the possessions of others.

If you rob, cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen TV or a life of leisure.

ARTICLE VIII -- You don't have the right to demand that our children risk their lives in foreign wars to soothe your aching conscience.

We hate oppressive governments and won't lift a finger to stop you from going to fight, if you'd like. However, we do not enjoy parenting the entire world and do not want to spend so much of our time battling each and every little tyrant with a military uniform and a funny hat.

ARTICLE IX -- You don't have the right to a job.

All of us sure want all of you to have one, and will gladly help you in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.

ARTICLE X -- You do not have the right to happiness.

Being an American means that you have the right to pursue happiness -- which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.
If you agree that a understanding of no rights is necessary to "Secure the Blessings of Liberty," I strongly urge you to refer this to as many people as you can, or link it from your own webpages. No, you don't HAVE to .... Nothing tragic will befall you should you NOT refer it. I just think it's about time common sense is allowed to re-emerge in our society and flourish again. Thank you!!!
Thank you, indeed. Spread the word!

Steve Lonegan to Announce Plan  

Thursday, February 19, 2009

The Lonegan Plan will focus on three elements: getting rid of the Abbott decision that diverts 60 percent of state school aid to just 31 school districts, bringing vouchers to failing districts and replacing the state's "progressive" income tax with a flat rate on all income that will drop as spending is reduced.
This is the kind of person we need as governor of New Jersey.

As for the interview, I've sent Steve's campaign the questions, and they will be sending me Steve's answers sometime in the near future.

A Beer With Barack  

Thursday, February 12, 2009

So Barack's going to tip a few with Sean Hannity.

Awesome.

Of course, Sean's invitation has been there for some time - ever since Barack basically asserted that people who like to listen to Sean Hannity wouldn't want to have a beer with him, but hey. Better late than never.

Maybe Sean can make some headway in convincing this socialist nutbag that there is another way of looking at things that isn't automatically wrong just because it isn't socialist. I can think of a number of things Sean might bring up in the conversation ...

But after some thought, I think the simple act of opening the dialogue is an excellent first step for Mr. Obama, and I think Sean is just the guy to open the door. This is not to say that I agree with Sean on everything, but in these difficult times those of us who support the truths that make this country great will have to stick together and debate out own pet issues later. Strong ex-Republicans like Sean and Rush already have the public ear, and just getting Obama to listen to a conservative on a social level may very well be the "foot in the door" we need.

So my advice to Mr. Hannity is this: Have that beer. Talk about whatever you want. Most importantly, see what you can do about making this audience with Barack a regular thing, so that he can get an earful about each and every screw-up he makes (perhaps starting with this stupid stiffulus bill and all the talk about the next version of the censorship doctrine), as well as input as to what the real solution is. Bottom line: Get the wheels of trust moving.

Not that I believe for a minute that Mr. Obama intends to listen to a word anyone to the right of John McCain has to say, in fact it's highly likely Sean's going to be lectured about this and that, but Sean is no slouch in an argument. Regardless of how you feel about him, you know there's no way he's going to let anyone get the upper hand with bullshit.

On that same note, I think each and every one of us needs to sit down with our favorite liberal and have a beer. Not to talk about politics or straighten them out, but to show them just how stupid their foolish excuses for leaders are when they put out all those malicious lies about the kind of people we are.

Let's make it happen!
