With the passage of the 14th Amendment, all our God granted rights were converted into privileges. We are now statutory persons and not Freemen.

Imagine saluting a POS with jug-ears.
I never even knew a POS COULD have jug-ears.

The Republican National Committee’s health insurance plan covers elective abortion – a procedure the party’s own platform calls “a fundamental assault on innocent human life.”

Informed of the coverage, RNC spokeswoman Gail Gitcho told POLITICO that the policy pre-dates the tenure of current RNC Chairman Michael Steele.

“The current policy has been in effect since 1991, and we are taking steps to address the issue,” Gitcho said.

2009 - 1991 = 18 years.

Hey bert, Republicans have been working on health care reform for 18 years, and the Democraps have been the party of NO? Thanks for the info, maybe if they were aware of this last year we wouldn't be in a DEPRESSION now.

Our plight began in the mid 1800's when the Railroad Lawyer, Honest Abe was planted into the White House by some Railroad folks. To keep it short Abe might as well have been a Communist and as a matter of fact the Communist Manifesto was one of the books he read.

Read the Amendments in the Constitution and pay attention to what happens to them after the 10th. You will note that one through ten are all short and sweet. You will notice as well that one through ten directly limit the government. Beyond those ten you will note the mockery that are the remaining Amendments.

These amendments are limitations on the People and happen to be the unconstitutional works of the Communists who by the looks of it have taken both parties! Good luck and fair thee well while basking in the Uniform Commercial Code that has taken over your lives!

Malaria and Death or DDT and Life: Pick Just One

Suppose we could save a million (human) lives a year, 85% of which were children’s lives, or lose the brown pelican forevermore. The vast majority of us would opt for the million humans over a bird, I would hope.

Sub-Saharan Africans don’t have much of a choice between people over birds. There the scourge of malaria kills one child every 30 seconds, according to the African Environmentalist Association: http://bit.ly/WE8DQ

Malaria is sometimes called “Africa’s common cold,” but it’s not quite the equivalent of a mild cough, sniffles, and a sore throat. The debilitating disease causes high fevers, severe headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, brain damage, and, often, death.

Chicken soup or Vick’s VapoRub have no salutary effect on its victims.

There is an effective remedy for the deaths and the billions spent on treating malaria in African nations where costs can exceed 40% of health allocations. Those countries can afford the deaths but can ill-afford the billions spent to treat malaria victims.

The catch? The remedy is frowned upon by the UN’s World Health Organization, WHO.

As a mosquito-borne disease, logically, malaria is best prevented by the eradication of ’skeeters but the best preventative, DDT, is verbotten by WHO . . .

The 13th through 15th ammendments were the work of Giants, in taking the 800 pound gorilla of slavery as a blight on our freedom project and slaying it once and for all. You cannot be a free people grounded in liberty... and own slaves. You cannot be free and count some votes less than others. Liberty for SOME is not liberty. Liberty for ALL is what it's all about.

It is possible - very possible - to be an ideological conservative and yet see the splendor of men able to see the glaring error keeping their perfect union from being perfect, and fixing it.

This is our future under ObamaCare, not just for malaria, but any illness that is not "fashionable" enough.

A little something Interesting...


These kids entertained during half-time at an Army/Navy Basketball Game in Ohio. They are absolutely amazing. The fact that these girls learned the routines is hard to believe but the fact that they executed them without a single noticeable mistake is totally unbelievable! Enjoy!
