Our poor Founders. So few of today’s politicians of whom to be proud.

I know. It's both sad and frightful.

Still, the heroes in our military, past and present, as well as some brave citizens continue to give me hope.

Do you mean Laz, our harmless little cuddly hittin'-it teddy bear? Maybe you're right, but I think it's a female.

4-9-12: White House diverts $500M to IRS for enforcement of Obamacare...

Excerpt:

The money is only part of the IRS’s total implementation spending, and it is being provided outside the normal appropriations process. The tax agency is responsible for several key provisions of the new law, including the unpopular individual mandate.


welcome to America, the dictatorship!

They tell us we must learn to live with less, and teach our children that their lives will be less full and prosperous than ours have been; that the America of the coming years will be a place where — because of our past excesses — it will be impossible to dream and make those dreams come true. I don't believe that. And, I don't believe you do either.
~Ronald Reagan

Yep. Today’s Marxist news. It’s up to SCOTUS to strike down obamacare and smack down the Marxist and his anti-American party that passed it into unconstitutional, party-line law.

A full life turned out this most amazing and truly brilliant man.

Like Reagan and Bush, lot of brilliant people are laid back because they have healthy self confidence which puts them at ease.

Democrats and fools misread this casualness for inferiority, thus exposing themselves as vastly idiotic.

That's why they call people names instead of attempting discussion; they don't possess that self-confidence because they are confounded by their own stupidity.

" There are those in America today who have come to depend absolutely on government for their security. And when government fails they seek to rectify that failure in the form of granting government more power.

So, as government has failed to control crime and violence with the means given it by the Constitution, they seek to give it more power at the expense of the Constitution. But in doing so, in their willingness to give up their arms in the name of safety, they are really giving up their protection from what has always been the chief source of despotism — government.

Lord Acton said power corrupts. Surely then, if this is true, the more power we give the government the more corrupt it will become. And if we give it the power to confiscate our arms we also give up the ultimate means to combat that corrupt power. In doing so we can only assure that we will eventually be totally subject to it.

When dictators come to power, the first thing they do is take away the people's weapons. It makes it so much easier for the secret police to operate, it makes it so much easier to force the will of the ruler upon the ruled."

~Ronald Reagan
