Declaration of Independence Written for Our Time
Our nation is at risk — and the next four years will determine whether we survive as a nation of free men or see ourselves forcefully transformed into a third-rate, European-style socialist nightmare that, itself, must then give way to the tyranny of fascism. Obama and his radical, leftist allies have set precisely that course and are marching swiftly toward its end. It is time to act — to stop these anti-Constitutionalists. To that end I have penned A New American Declaration of Independence, written for our time, based on our challenges. This New American Declaration of Independence is modeled after the original in order to make a point: We face circumstances at least as perilous as those faced more than two centuries ago by our Founders, and meeting the challenges those conditions impose will require commitment equal to the task — a commitment far beyond our comfort zone. This is not a call to arms, but, rather, a call to understand what is at stake and what will be required to reclaim our liberty if we choose now to take no positive action. Please read it and send a link to your elected representatives. You may click here or use the link in the menu bar above. And even if you don't use the tool I have provided — DO SOMETHING: Every American who loves our Constitution needs to be involved. And to those who wish to remain comfortably on the sidelines while others do the heavy lifting, I offer the words of Samuel Adams: "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." |

The Truth About Civil Rights ... the first in a series about Republicans and civil rights issues Democrats are fond of slamming Republicans for their civil rights record; according to these revisionists, Republicans have consistently opposed Constitutional guarantees of liberty and equal protection under the law — and that opposition, according to Democrats, has shown itself in a marked lack of support from Republicans for legislation designed to ensure that the rights of all citizens, regardless of race, creed, or color, are fully protected. It is time to set the record straight. Two landmark pieces of legislation were passed during the 1960s — legislation that, to this very day, helps to protect the rights of all citizens … legislation that helps guarantee the vision shared by men like Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King. And neither piece of legislation could have been passed without Republicans ... Washington, D.C., United States Senate, 1964: The Civil Rights Act of 1964 is under attack by Senator Robert C. Byrd, a Democrat and former KKK member/recruiter from West Virginia, who filibusters the act for fourteen straight hours prior to the final vote. When the vote is finally taken for cloture, which, if successful, will clear the way for passage of the act, 27 Republicans join 44 Democrats in calling for an end to Byrd’s filibuster — 23 Democrats and only six Republicans vote against cloture. At the time the vote is taken, there are only 33 Republicans in the Senate: and 82 percent of those Senate Republicans vote for cloture, thereby assuring an end to Byrd's filibuster and passage of the Civil Rights Act, while, at the same time, only 66 percent of Senate Democrats vote for cloture — clear proof that, without the support of Republicans, Democrats could not have even ended Byrd’s filibuster. When the final Senate vote is taken on the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it is supported by 27 of 33 Republicans and 46 of 67 Democrats — but is opposed by 21 Democrats, including Senator Robert C. Byrd, a former KKK leader who had recruited 150 people into the organization. One year later, 1965, United States Senate: The National Voting Rights Act of 1965 is under consideration, and is opposed by Senator Robert C. Byrd, Democrat and former KKK member from West Virginia. When the final vote is taken, the National Voting Rights Act of 1965 is supported by 49 Democrats and 30 Republicans — and is opposed by 17 Democrats, but only one Republican. Again, 91 percent of Republicans support the Voting Rights Act of 1965 compared to 73 percent of Democrats — and, as was true for the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it is Republican votes that provide the margin of victory in the Democrat-controlled Senate.

| May 30, 2010 | 'Twas Lost, But Now am Found I’m a racist. At least, that’s what my students tell me. And their evidence is most compelling. John McCain was my choice for president in November 2008, although I would have preferred Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, or Mike Huckabee. And Sarah Palin is someone I will support when she acquires a little more experience. Then there’s the Tea Party movement: I’m an avid supporter; in fact, I even have a Facebook page called Tea Party Teachers, and will be developing a website by the same name sometime this year. And let’s not forget my position on illegal immigrants: Arizona should be applauded for trying to enforce the country’s immigration laws; after all, the President refuses to even secure our borders — a clear violation of his Oath of Office and his Constitutional duties. As for the law itself, Arizona has not said a police officer can stop an individual because of a suspicion he or she may be here illegally: In fact, profiling of any kind is specifically prohibited by the law itself. If, on the other hand, someone has already been legitimately stopped for another, completely unrelated infraction or violation of the law, then — and only then — can he or she be challenged as to legal residency, assuming there is a bona fide reason for suspecting he or she is here illegally in the first place. But, it doesn’t matter: If I want government to protect our borders and make sure that those who come here have respected our laws in the process of immigrating to the United States, I am most assuredly a racist. Supporting the Tea Party movement and voting for conservatives is only icing on the cake — incontrovertible proof of the depth and breadth of my deep-seeded hatred for those whose skin tone varies from my own. Fortunately, I am a candidate for re-education, and I’m certain my Latino friends will actively support my recovery from this depraved affliction. Before I am taken away for re-education, however, I would like to thank those well-educated, supremely-informed parents who taught their children to recognize racism — even in its most benign forms — and to honor, obey, and sustain the law. I would like to thank them for their keen insights on the foibles of capitalism, the horror that is America, the foolishness of individual rights, and the merits of the Nanny State. Their open-minded, enlightened approach underscores an understanding of our Constitution and its underlying principles that goes far beyond my 48 years of focused study on the subject. Yes, amen and hallelujah! I’m comin’ to Jesus on this one:

| Nov. 22, 2009 | The Assault on America by Obama, Pelosi, and Reid 01 Stimulus One. 02 Cap and Tax. 03 Obamacare. Pelosicare. Reidcare. 04 Internet “Neutrality.” 05 The elimination of the secret ballot in the work place. 06 Tax increases. 07 Amnesty for illegal aliens who break the law. 08 International treaties that yield our national sovereignty to our enemies. 09 A refusal to fully develop our own energy resources. 10 Massive deficits. 11 Assaults on the First and Second Amendments. 12 The murder of the unborn. 13 The rationing of health care for seniors. 14 A refusal to properly support our troops. 15 Abandonment of the War on Terrorism. Each one of these treacherous, wholly-corrupt, and morally bankrupt policy and legislative initiatives have been sponsored or supported by the current administration and their anti-American, anti-free market, Marxist allies, and members of the United States Congress and Senate who have eagerly sold themselves to special interests. Let me be clear: Obama, Pelosi, and Reid have refused to honor their oaths of office to honor, uphold, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. These socialists who refuse to acknowledge the exceptional nature of America and her character must be held accountable: They cannot be allowed to destroy our great nation. |

Hypocrisy on the Left — Again Posters depicting Obama as the infamous Joker began popping up throughout the Los Angeles area during the first week of August, and apparently the image is migrating rapidly throughout the nation — aided by the Web. What is interesting are the howls from the left decrying the poster as racist. These factually-challenged souls seem to forget the portrayals of George Bush as both the Joker and Adolf Hitler or, for that matter, the portrayal of Abraham Lincoln as a monkey handing the Emancipation Proclamation to a freed slave. Such portrayals are common in politics, and the objections from the left simply reveal their contempt for free speech that does not conform to their statist, classist ideology.
