She doesn’t show up at her own town hall meetings, but sends a flunky instead?

Bingo.

The Constitution is not a limiting/enumeration of our rights; it is a limiting and enumeration of the powers & responsibilities of the federal government.

It is only a document of “negative rights” if you view yourself as the Government and not as a Citizen.

I like how he begins "We have something in common. We both took an oath to defend the Constitution. Her road took her to Washington, mine took me overseas with a rifle"

Wow! Send this to Rush!

This is a powerful video. May God raise up more real men like this citizen.

There is no way that the Marxist media can paint this young man as a nut.

I am constantly shocked at the sheer number of folks, many conservative, who think our Constitution gives us our rights. They can only be given up freely. Some would argue that we couldn't even give them away, legally.

Clean-cut, in a suit, no profanity, no shouting, complete sentences, has absolute confidence in his statements - behavior and an approach to emulate in Town Hall meetings. Save the pitchforks for later.

KABOOM!

That was beautiful.

He is right on point about the enumerated powers, and I especially like how he preempted the general welfare clause excuse. Then he asks for an apology rather than an explanation — perfect!

I wish a reporter would have the brain cells and the gonads to ask Obama where the constitutional justification for a nationalized healthcare system is.

I know there are more Service men like this young man....

These Service men are the type of leaders that we need...

We need them in our schools (so the children can look up and really learn from these men..great role models)

We need them as our governors and senators (so that We The People can feel confident that we are safe and secure)

We need all great Service men to come forth and protect
the United States of America from WITHIN our failing government.
