Dues-paying members are speaking up about the organization’s sellout of its members — and the AARP brass is not happy. Yes, the winds of real hope and change are blowing:

"...just because you have an individual right does not mean that the state or local government can't constrain the exercise of that right..."
Barack Obama, 2008 Philadelphia primary debate

OBAMA WOULD BE THE MOST ANTI-GUN IN AMERICAN HISTORY !

“So it’s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them….” -- Barack Obama, April 2, 2008
Barack Obama has made it clear – he believes gun owners are dangerous and that guns should be banned. If he is elected President, he could name new Supreme Court Justices who will try to overturn the recent court decision and strip our rights away.
Protect your rights. Protecting your rights has never been more important.

Did You Know?
Barack Obama voted to allow reckless lawsuits designed to bankrupt the firearms industry.


On the Second Amendment, Don’t Believe Obama!

On the campaign trail, Senator Obama hides behind carefully chosen words and vague statements of support for sportsmen and gun rights to sidestep and camouflage the truth. But even he can’t hide from the truth forever… his voting record, political associations, and long standing positions make it clear that, if elected, Barack Obama would be the most anti-gun president in American history. The facts speak for themselves. This election day, vote to defend freedom…because if Obama wins, you lose.

THE FACTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES:

Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, 4/2/08, Chicago Tribune, 9/15/04

Barack Obama Has Supported:

A Total Ban on Handguns

A Ban on the Sale or Transfer of All Semi-Auto Firearms

A Ban on Right-to-Carry Permits

A Ban on Firearms Kept in the Home

As a presidential candidate, Barack Obama must demonstrate executive experience, but he remains strangely silent about his eight years (1994-2002) as a director of the Joyce Foundation, a billion dollar tax-exempt organization. He has one obvious reason: during his time as director, Joyce Foundation spent millions creating and supporting anti-gun organizations.

There is another, less known, reason.

During Obama’s tenure, the Joyce Foundation board planned and implemented a program targeting the Supreme Court. The work began five years into Obama’s directorship, when the Foundation had experience in turning its millions into anti-gun “grassroots” organizations, but none at converting cash into legal scholarship.

The plan’s objective was bold: the judicial obliteration of the Second Amendment.

Joyce’s directors found a vulnerable point. When judges cannot rely upon past decisions, they sometimes turn to law review articles. Law reviews are impartial, and famed for meticulous cite-checking. They are also produced on a shoestring. Authors of articles receive no compensation; editors are law students who work for a tiny stipend.

In 1999, midway through Obama’s tenure, the Joyce board voted to grant the Chicago-Kent Law Review $84,000, a staggering sum by law review standards. The Review promptly published an issue in which all articles attacked the individual right view of the Second Amendment.

In a breach of law review custom, Chicago-Kent let an “outsider” serve as editor; he was Carl Bogus, a faculty member of a different law school. Bogus had a unique distinction: he had been a director of Handgun Control Inc. (today’s Brady Campaign), and was on the advisory board of the Joyce-funded Violence Policy Center.

Bogus solicited only articles hostile to the individual right view of the Second Amendment, offering authors $5,000 each. But word leaked out, and Prof. Randy Barnett of Boston University volunteered to write in defense of the individual right to arms. Bogus refused to allow him to write for the review, later explaining that “sometimes a more balanced debate is best served by an unbalanced symposium.” Prof. James Lindgren, a former Chicago-Kent faculty member, remembers that when Barnett sought an explanation he “was given conflicting reasons, but the opposition of the Joyce Foundation was one that surfaced at some time.” Joyce had bought a veto power over the review’s content.

Joyce Foundation apparently believed it held this power over the entire university. Glenn Reynolds later recalled that when he and two other professors were scheduled to discuss the Second Amendment on campus, Joyce’s staffers “objected strenuously” to their being allowed to speak, protesting that Joyce Foundation was being cheated by an “‘agenda of balance’ that was inconsistent with the Symposium’s purpose.” Joyce next bought up an issue of Fordham Law Review.

The plan worked smoothly. One court, in the course of ruling that there was no individual right to arms, cited the Chicago-Kent articles eight times. Then, in 2001, a federal Court of Appeals in Texas determined that the Second Amendment was an individual right.

The Joyce Foundation board (which still included Obama) responded by expanding its attack on the Second Amendment. Its next move came when Ohio State University announced it was establishing the “Second Amendment Research Center” as a thinktank headed by anti-individual-right historian Saul Cornell. Joyce put up no less than $400,000 to bankroll its creation. The grant was awarded at the board’s December 2002 meeting, Obama’s last function as a Joyce director. In reporting the grant, the OSU magazine Making History made clear that the purpose was to influence a future Supreme Court case:

“The effort is timely: a series of test cases - based on a new wave of scholarship, a recent decision by a federal Court of Appeals in Texas, and a revised Justice Department policy-are working their way through the courts. The litigants challenge the courts’ traditional reading of the Second Amendment as a protection of the states’ right to organize militia, asserting that the Amendment confers a much broader right for individuals to own guns. The United States Supreme Court is likely to resolve the debate within the next three to five years.”

(45:17-18; online link; slow).

The Center proceeded to generate articles denying the individual right to arms. The OSU connection also gave Joyce an academic money laundry. When it decided to buy an issue of the Stanford Law and Policy Review, it had a cover. Joyce handed OSU $125,000 for that purpose; all the law review editors knew was that OSU’s Foundation granted them that breathtaking sum, and a helpful Prof. Cornell volunteered to organize the issue. (The review was later sufficiently embarassed to publish an open letter on the affair).

The Joyce directorate’s plan almost succeeded. The individual rights view won out in the Heller Supreme Court appeal, but only by 5-4. The four dissenters were persuaded in part by Joyce-funded writings, down to relying on an article which misled them on critical historical documents.

Having lost that fight, Obama now claims he always held the individual rights view of the Second Amendment, and that he “respects the constitutional rights of Americans to bear arms.” But as a Joyce director, Obama was involved in a wealthy foundation’s attempt to manipulate the Supreme Court, buy legal scholarship, and obliterate the individual right to arms.

Voters who value the Constitution should ask whether someone who was party to that plan should be nominating future Supreme Court justices.

Barack Obama and his connection to ACORN, the voter fraud specialists

HELP STAMP OUT VOTER FRAUD

Barack Hussein Obama and his friends. Is this the kind of person you really want to be your President ? I thought this was quite interesting info I found on the net.

Are You Connecting All The Dots?

As I've already said to some, that Obama was in the New Party isn't new. But keep in mind the ACORN connection I pointed out back in May, then connect the dot some seem to be missing.
ACORN and The New Party were somewhat one and the same because TNP relied on ACORN to become established in Chicago.

After a false start in New York, the New Party built modestly successful chapters in several states. Some of these chapters — such as those in Chicago and Little Rock — had their main bases of support in the low-income community organizing group ACORN, along with some support from various labor unions (especially ACORN-allied locals of the Service Employees International Union).

And at least in part, how did the mighty ACORN grow? That would be courtesy of Obama and Ayres via the CAC. In a very real sense, Obama took foundation monies that were supposed to improve education - failed at that, but managed to establish the very bedrock of Leftism which ultimately lifted him to his first elected office. Sweet deal, huh? Too bad it did nothing at all for the children it was supposed to help.

So, to whom did CAC's money go?

CAC translated Mr. Ayers's radicalism into practice. Instead of funding schools directly, it required schools to affiliate with "external partners," which actually got the money. Proposals from groups focused on math/science achievement were turned down. Instead CAC disbursed money through various far-left community organizers, such as the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (or Acorn).

NANCY PELOSI SAID...REPUBLICANS LETS MAKE A DEAL~

NANCY PELOSI SAID...REPUBLICANS LETS MAKE A DEAL~ WHAT A STUPID WOMEN. MAKING DEALS WHILE YOUR MONEY GOES TO HELL. The dems have enough of their own votes to pass the bill.
I cannot believe that some of you people are so blind that you cannot see what the democrats did today.
If you look up "each" of the democrats that voted NO you will see that all of them were up for re-election and Nancy told them that she would get republicans to vote yes and they could vote no and they would not lose their elections.
These foolish dems do not care about America !
At first the did not include republicans in any of there discussions until they realized that they would have to draft some kind of bill and that the public was mad as hell about the crooks on wall street. After they realized that even though they did not need any republican envolment to pass a bill they knew that man of their cronies would send them packing so then they turned to the Republicans for help. They are just playing politics with "your" money to save their asses. AND...NANCY LIES LIKE A DOG.
Democrats are sneeky and now that they tricked the republicans and played politics with them to get the voted needed to save their buddies butts from not being re-elected. Poor babies. The democrats said they made a deal with the republicans. Well, this aint LETS MAKE A DAMN DEAL! This is the real world. Not a TV SHOW.
They can all go to hell.

Lies, Loopholes and the Constitution~ JUST SAY NO TO OBAMA

I saw this response SOMEONE WROTE to an article and I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE ONES OPINION. I agree 100%

Lies, Loopholes and the Constitution:
Political


In response to a concerned fellow American over the liberal “Presenters” of the Presidential debates and the “obvious” hatred/fear emanating from our fellow Americans who have turned Left somewhere along the road…No my friend...we won't have gridlock if Obama is elected....but rather a dynasty of destruction in which every Liberal spending Bill submitted by Congress will be approved by Osama and Obama (not to mention the endorsements of the primarily Socialist leaders in Germany, France, GB, Russia, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea (no fewer than six politicians running for office in South America have officially renamed themselves to Barack Obama..) oh yeah....and all of the wannabe future Muslim Caliphate members from Gibraltar to India that herald the coming new friendship with the "Enlightened One"! Has it ever occurred to people like Charles Gibson to ask Obama why all of his closest friends are either convicted criminals (Chicagoan Tony Resco), self admitted Homeland Anti-American Terrorists like William Ayers & wife, or his own lobbyist top election staff chairpersons such as the former KEY FIGURES of none other than the recently exposed government sponsored companies (Fanny Mae, Freddy Mac and let us not forget....the largest of the three...AIG...so help me GOD)! While shaming President Bush and John McCain for not providing "proper and lasting oversight of this country's fraudulent mortgage brokerage and lending firms" And he has the "Audacity of Hope" that the true content of his private and uplifting "spiritual guidance sessions" with the racist Hate Monger "reverend" Wright will continue to go "unnoticed" by his worshippers like Okra Wimpey, and the producers, and faithful staff at NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC and the public sponsored C-Span as well as the nationwide "Politbureau/educational" stations that are nothing more than Socialist training videos produced and broadcast by those in direct alignment and consultation with the Annenberg Foundation! Oh and let us not forget his favorite "mentor and travelling companion" to accompany him to certain "God-fearing" Mideastern nations like Libya to meet with that kind fellow Mohammar Khadafy??

Has it ever occurred to any of the "fair and balanced" minded Americans that his highly valued (and widely acclaimed) duties as a "Community Organizer" were nothing more than frequent and undisclosed (to the general voting populace) visits to the Churches of the concerned faithful in South Chicago in order to convince the "ministers" of the community to "organize" as a large and vocal voting block for the only folks that could "Feel their Pain" (a political move directly from the playbook of the widely acclaimed Socialist and Communist faithful Saul Alinsky)?? And as he, his Network friends and campaign faithful touted his important "Executive" experience as a selfless effort to gain favor ($$$) and status as someone in the community who came from a Holy place to organize, stress Unity of, and help to bring focus to at least those most helpless members of the local "Black" community and to "Liberate" them from the centuries of tortuous conditions the "White Man" had forced upon them through the enlightening "Truths" of "Theology" perhaps???!

My friend, that is just the "tip of the iceberg" when it comes to "getting to know" this kind, upstanding and patriotic man known as "Obama", no, actually the tip of one of many "icebergs" floating around this Globe, with mock concern that they will be "melting soon" anyway due to the "global warming" bunch of non-caring Conservatives who pollute the planet more with every new energy plant (including private business) that they start up. The "out of touch" compassionless Americans who are so self gratifying that we turn up our thermostats in the Winter and lower them in Summer for nothing more than to satisfy our all-consuming lust for comfort! Folks like us who are so unsophisticated intellectually that we can't see the solution to the serious energy crisis like inflating all of our tires for the sake of the Globe! Undisciplined and backward thinking masses as we look at the world around us with envy and are driven to the verge of madness as we pick up our guns and hold onto the false security offered by our own family Bibles! If only we could figure out a way, we could cast away those guns & reading materials and learn to live happily and "peacefully co-exist" side by side with knowledgeable people like those good kind folks in the more "sophisticated" bastions of highly evolved civilization like Metro New York....or hopefully...maybe those wise souls in South Chicago!! We could get good paying jobs or government college loans if we could be lucky enough to be selected to build some of those new windmills of the shores of Long Island, or in the seas near Boston (did you say that would conflict with Senator Teddy's aesthetically pleasing view of the Harbor Horizon?? Well maybe not Boston then).

WHY SHOULD WE BE SO CONCERNED ABOUT A COOL EDUCATED DUDE THAT COULD AT ONE TIME SNORT AN EIGHTBALL ON THE WAY TO THE AFFIRMATIVE ACTION OFFICE FOR SUPPORT OF HIGHER EDUCATION?? Certain political machines remind us of that old quote "If power is the primary source of corruption then total power leads to total corruption" ever read clauses 1 and 2 of Article VI of our very own US Constitution?? It is as follows:

Article. VI.

Clause 1: All Debts contracted and Engagements entered into, before the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be as valid against the United States under this Constitution, as under the Confederation.

Clause 2: This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.

Yep, for the "un-initiated" and "un-anointed" among us, those two short clauses mean that within the framework of our US Constitution, the Founders provided an instrument for providing other nations with the security of knowing that, if we ever agree to a treaty with that nation (or even a united group of nations), then we are bound to honor the laws and agreements of that instrument....EVEN PUTTING THOSE AGREEMENTS ABOVE THOSE RIGHTS OR RESTRICTIONS guaranteed us in our very own US Constitution!! Well...I'm no Plato...but I vaguely recall recent mention by many representatives of other nations, as well as some of our own illustrative members of Con-Digress, that one of the main tenants of the group of Global Elitists known as the UN, is the firm conviction that in the "modern" world, and in consideration of the many various "war-like" factions among the populace of sovereign nations, the best method (by consensus) of maintaining the "economic viability and social stability" of those populations is to ban the possession, ownership or private sales of weapons considered as "small arms" whose definition conveniently would be determined by those honorable and "enlightened few".

Now, ask me, if after what passes for a candidate of "presidential aspiration" can have even the most relative and telling indicators of his political life completely overlooked and determined by his followers (sponsors) to be a mean spirited attempt by conservative right-wing hit men, and highly praised as the only qualified "Agent of Change" we can trust....well.

If Obama were to become our next President, Congress would be totally controlled by liberals with the "most liberal member of the US Senate" at the helm of this "Pirate Ship" to sign off on and give the final seal of approval to ANY International Treaties designed as a "vehicle of change" in accordance with Article VI of that GOD inspired sacred document that may even now be under the cloud of darkness and deceit by the "New Messiah". And just how in the Hell can we mistrust an honest soul who has been officially and enthusiastically endorsed by Okra Wimpey herself!! Watch out Queen Latifah....Michelle is waiting in the wings!!

As I write this even now, in final (thank Goodness), there is a breaking news story from the Information Minister of the new IRAQI government saying that, when Obama met with the Iraqi ambassador recently, he was "adamantly persuading" the Iraqi Ambassador NOT to sign a withdrawal Treaty issued by the Bush Administration but that it would be best for both of our Nations and the World at large, if the Iraqi President Malachi would postpone his decisions on American Force withdrawals until the new leader of the next new Administration is officially elected and seated!! If confirmed....wouldn't this fall under the Treason Statutes?? Can a private citizen or individual member of the Senate use his position to try to influence the troop deployment decisions with the leader of the nation in which those troops are actively deployed, and at such a time when we are technically "at war" with remaining factions still in that nation (though admittedly at the request and with the hospitality of the foreign leader)?? Why does this news not surprise me, and why does it not surprise me that the only network to mention this Iraqi Minister's allegations has been the Fox News Channel (in a live televised interview with the minister making the accusations).

As I close...I have to say that I am certainly not qualified nor would I care to pass "Judgement" on Senators Obama, McCain, Biden, nor Governor Palin....I am sure that senator Obama is a man of conscious and deep and often reflections. I also know he is a family man who is aquainted with the hopes, fears and ambition we all share as people of the same "global family" He is also not different than my self on many of his stated "core beliefs anf feelings" and my life has been a lot more parallel to his own than to Senator McCains ( I was an anti-conservative, pot and hash smoking, long haired anti-war idealist protestor in my late teens/early twenties who served 5 years for drug possession in the late sixties/ early seventies, and can't claim the Honor of giving military service to my own country during the last phases of Vietnam War. My concerns are purely "tainted" by my now Conservative "Worldview" or my obvious desire to point out only those positions & facts about the political candidate I find "most disengenuous", and I am 100% certain that I have been guilty of all of the 7 deadly sins (greed, jealousy, avarice, sloth...etc..etc.) at various times in my own sometimes confused life....but I feel like after all of the unfounded, slanderous, viscious and pretentious accusations and media attempts to assasinate the Honor and Character of Senator McCain and his Vice-presidential nominee's character and unfair exploration and "exploitation" of their sacred trust in the right of most personal privacy and dignity, a few facts to help "balance the scales" were in order. The facts in this blog are merely facts based on either historical records or documented evidence, but in excercising my right to free speech & freedom of expression....the rest is obviously personal opinion. We can debate the facts...and share opinions...but I hope we never try to hide the "Truth".

“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.”

Plato quote

“In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one.”

Plato quote

The people have always some champion whom they set over them and nurse into greatness...This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.

Plato quote


God Bless us All and Protect us, both Liberal and Conservative

Lock your doors, get yours guns, the Obama hounds are on the loose

Obama Releases His "In-Your-Face" Hounds

Warning: If your neighbor's got an "Obama '08" bumper sticker or lawn sign, you might want to double-check your door locks at night. The One has commanded his Purveyors of Change to go forth and proselytize to the unbelievers. And they're not going to be knocking gently like Avon Ladies.

Barack Obama, you see, is done fixing souls. It's time to crack heads. Prodded by panicked Democrats to take off his white gloves, he issued a Call to Strong Arm to his legions of angry followers on Wednesday. Hope is out. Hellfire is in. Now, the same analysts who tut-tutted Sarah Palin's mild use of sarcasm at the GOP convention are heralding -- in the words of the Obama water-carriers at the Associated Press -- Obama's "feistier, more sarcastic tone" and his push for Democrat activists "to sharpen their elbows, too."

When Republicans get aggressive, it's "dirty." When Obama gets aggressive, it's "feisty." Exorteth the One: "I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face."

Team Obama is so committed to this "face-to-face" shock troop campaign that it is now busing activists from state to state ("Drive for Change!") to target undecided voters -- and offering subsidies to volunteers. In advance of Obama's rally in Nevada, California field director Mary Jane Stevenson organized a pilgrimage to boost the crowd numbers with housing incentives:

"Face-to-face contact with undecided voters is the single most effective way to grow this movement. No experience is required, and we'll help you make the trip as easily as possible with either housing in Nevada or discounted group rates at an area hotel."

Yep, a bunch of angry Obama cultists and left-wing ACORN drifters are coming to your neighborhoods to accuse you of racism, call you unpatriotic for not bowing down and forking over more taxes to keep the Mother Ship afloat, and check your tire pressure and thermostats while they're at it. Feel the power of positive change.

The in-your-face directive comes as Team Obama Chicago-fies its tactics by:

-- Stepping up sleazy ads. Tthe latest one twisted the words of radio talk giant Rush Limbaugh in a laughable attempt to paint John McCain as an immigration hardliner and stir fear among Hispanic voters;

-- Doubling down on the race card. Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius shamelessly baited supporters with this line: "Have any of you noticed that Barack Obama is part African-American? (Republicans) are not going to go lightly into the darkness;"

-- And suppressing dissent. Rebuffed by the Justice Department in their efforts to prosecute conservatives for running ads critical of Obama's ties to Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers, the campaign is using an army of supporters to mob radio and television stations daring to air investigations of the relationship. The foot soldiers receive their marching orders through "Obama Action Wires" and bombard critics with disruptive phone calls.

Meanwhile, the Left's Sarah Palin hatred has been encouraged by the in-your-face comments of Michelle Obama, who derided the Alaska governor's intellect ("What you learn about Barack from his choice is that he's not afraid of smart people") and looks (don't cast a vote because "she's cute") on the campaign trail. And Team Obama's goons on the Internet -- led by Gawker Media and the Huffington Post -- are reveling in the hacking of Palin's private e-mail account, the publication of private, family photos of her children stolen from her account, and the abuse of daughter Bristol's cell phone number stolen from the account. For countless friends of Obama, "in your face" is code for "anything goes."

In words and actions that would have made his mentor Saul Alinsky proud, Barack Obama is rubbing raw the sores of discontent -- and summoning his unhinged flock to do the same. All hail the community-agitator-in-chief. And remember: Lock your doors.

Barack Obama is a liar !! HOW SHAMEFUL !

A Connection Barack Obama Doesn't Want the American People to Know About
While Senator Barack Obama has been on the campaign trail this week telling voters that John McCain is beholden to greedy corporate executives, he has forgotten to tell those same voters the truth about his record.
With the exception of Senator Chris Dodd, Barack Obama has received more money from mortgage giant Fannie Mae during his three years in office than any other politician in the United States has received in the company's entire history. Senator Obama talks a lot about not taking money from lobbyists, but he d oes not seem to mind taking record sums of cash from corrupt corporate executives at Fannie Mae. The truth is that Obama holds these greedy corrupt executives in such high regard that he decided to have one of them, Jim Johnson, lead his search for finding a vice presidential running mate.
Learn more here: Obama's Ties to Fannie Mae Run Deep
The American people are paying a huge price to bailout Fannie Mae. Corporate executives at Fannie Mae and other companies have violated the trust of the American people, and yet Barack Obama is willing and eager to take their money and involve them deeply in the affairs of his campaign. Simply put, the American people deserve better.
John McCain has a 25 year track record of fighting for the American people and taking on special interests. John McCain has taken on tobacco companies; John McCain has taken on the pharmaceutical industry; John McCain has ta ken on Washington lobbyists; and now John McCain is ready to take on the greed of corporate executives and Wall Street.
