“Free Men Need Not Ask Permission!”

THAT’s a tagline, if there ever was one.

I’m liking Cruz

“We do not accept the notion that government officials should behave as bullies...” - Cruz

“In the future, I would ask that you might keep your efforts to diminish the Bill of Rights north of the Red River.” - Cruz

Personally, I'd prefer if they were kept north of the Platte, or better still the Missouri.

Yep. You should have seen the fire in the belly of his supporters at the State GOP Convention. It was amazing. He is just being Cruz. Commie Dems will learn to fear him.

And perhaps you might have not seen this point made: if 2A only covers muskets, then 1A only covers town criers.

I have several pieces from Springfield Armory, they are just across the state from Chicago. It would be a shame if they left Geneseo because they employ a lot of the folks there but SA is certainly welcome down here IMHO.

The Left creates nothing. Only lies, steals, subjects, destroys, kills. Totalitarianism in all it’s forms (Fascism, Socialism, Marxism, Communism, Dictatorship, Islam) is evil.

Obozo is the Liar-in-Chief and he serves the Father-of-Lies.

Odds are the Texans working those plants would make a much better product as well. Some of the crap coming out of Illinois is embarrassing.
