US Constitution

Burning Down The House

December 19, 2011

I spent the last week in Las Vegas, where I purposely avoided television, the internet, talk radio, and newspapers. I didn't even check in on my own blog. All things political were jettisoned from my life for an entire week. It was fantastic. I'd be quite happy to remove politics from my life completely, but [...]

Killing Awlaki

October 1, 2011

When I heard we killed the terrorist Anwar al-Awlaki with a Predator drone strike in Yemen, my first reaction was "good, we got another one !" When it comes to killing al Qaedans, I'm on-board with the idea, mainly because al Qaedans are on-board with the jihadist idea of killing us. If it's going to [...]

Obama Administration Resists Fourth Amendment

May 17, 2011

I have more to say about the Fourth Amendment, so I thought I'd put it in a new post. The 1986 Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) states that any e-mail left in the cloud may be searched by the government without a warrant if it is older than 180 days. Cloud e-mail is e-mail stored [...]

A Right To Work ?

May 12, 2011

Recently, the Boeing Corporation announced plans to build a $1 billion commercial jet production plant in South Carolina. With the national unemployment rate at 9%, and manufacturing jobs leaving America in droves, it's certainly good news that Boeing is building it's new plant right here in the good old USA, eh ? While it may [...]

Situation Normal…

March 24, 2011

I didn't quite know what to make of a President who would launch an attack on Libya as he flew off with his family to South America for some sightseeing and chats with trading partners. That seemed pretty odd. Then I found out the Secretary Of Defense, Robert Gates, was in Moscow talking to the [...]

All Aboard The Gravy Train

March 9, 2011

Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-IL) has discovered a way to fix the unemployment problem. It involves changing the Constitution and creating a bunch more rights for people. Listen up, y'all, and let Jesse drop some knowledge on ya: They say the nut doesn't fall far from the tree. Seems so, but…. J.J. Jr's idea is [...]

Twenty six states are challenging the constitutionality of ObamaCare. The House Of Representatives voted to repeal ObamaCare. A majority of Americans are against the ObamaCare mandate (60% in the latest CNN poll). Two federal judges have declared ObamaCare to be unconstitutional (two other judges, appointed by Democrats, have declared it to be constitutional. I don't [...]

ObamaCare Mandate Ruled Unconstitutional

December 14, 2010

Government tyranny has been staved off for a bit longer, as Federal Judge Henry E. Hudson ruled the ObamaCare mandate is unconstitutional. The mandate would have forced all Americans to purchase private health insurance or pay a fine, a clear perversion of the Commerce Clause, which states Congress shall have the power "to regulate Commerce [...]

Historical Morons

October 20, 2010

It shouldn't be too much to ask of our political leaders, prospective leaders, and media pundits that they have some knowledge of the founding documents and history of this country, such as the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration Of Independence. But apparently, it is too much to ask. First up, I give you a debate [...]

The Charge Of The "Right" Brigade

August 3, 2010

Here is Congressman Pete Stark (D-CA) informing a crowd that the federal government can do almost anything it wants, the U.S. Constitution be damned. The crowd was none too happy to hear that American citizens are not free to engage in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness as they see fit. No, instead of [...]
