The only thing we have to fear
ALAN KEYES — "So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself -- nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance." (President Franklin Roosevelt's First Inaugural Address)... (more)

The myths of the science establishment
FRED HUTCHISON, RA ANALYST — Those who believe that man has an innate nature and design generally oppose abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, stem-cell research, and cloning, because these things are contrary to nature and the value of life. Those who follow the prevailing ideas of the science establishment generally are in favor of abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, etc., and are part of a gathering culture of death. Why is this?... (more)

Biden: Obama considering 'executive orders' to deal with guns
WEEKLY STANDARD — Vice President Joe Biden revealed that President Barack Obama might use an executive order to deal with guns. "The president is going to act," said Biden, giving some comments to the press before a meeting with victims of gun violence. "There are executive orders, there's executive action that can be taken... (more)

NRA president fires back at Cuomo
POLITICKER — National Rifle Association President David Keene gave a rare post-Newtown interview on the Brooklyn GOP Radio podcast this evening in which he responded to Governor Andrew Cuomo's vow to bring New York some of the "toughest" gun control laws in the country. Mr. Keene began by taking issue with Governor Cuomo's prediction that other states would follow New York's example and pass similar laws... (more)

4 quotes that explain everything
JOSEPH FARAH — Sometimes you have to get away from your country for a little while to get a little perspective on what's happening. While I spend a little time this week in the center of the world, I can't help but think about the fate of my country. With practically all debate and discussion in the U.S. dominated by the recent election, guns, money and liberty, I have found four quotes from historical figures that, I believe, explain the throes of freedom's extinction facing America...

Utah town makes arming households a top priority
ASSOCIATED PRESS — Officials in a small Utah town want to make sure every head of household has a firearm and knows how to use it, and they want to give school teachers training with guns too. Spring City Councilman Neil Sorensen first proposed an ordinance requiring a gun in every household in the town of 1,000... (more)

Brennan: Don't use 'jihad' to describe terrorists

Do you really want to be an organ donor?
PAUL A. BYRNE, M.D. — Life on earth continues until true death. Prior to the desire to get organs for transplantation, no one was declared dead with a beating heart, circulation, or breathing. Every organ for transplantation is taken from a living person. Would anyone with common sense believe that a cadaver, a dead body, would have organs that could be transplanted?... (more)

GARY BAUER — In two weeks, America will mark the 40th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision creating a constitutional right to abortion and legalizing most abortions.

Hagel: a petty pick
JONAH GOLDBERG — It's official. President Obama has named former senator Chuck Hagel (R., Neb.) as his nominee for secretary of defense.

Hagel's group sees Iran as a future ally
WASHINGTON TIMES — The Washington think tank overseen by President Obama's defense secretary-designate predicts that Iran one day will be a "natural partner" for the United States and could possess nuclear weapons. It also puts the onus on Israel to make peace with Palestinians, many of whom are governed by Hamas, an Iran-backed terrorist group bent on the destruction of the Jewish state... (more)

Sowell: The role of 'educators'
THOMAS SOWELL — Many years ago, as a young man, I read a very interesting book about the rise of the Communists to power in China. In the last chapter, the author tried to explain why and how this had happened. Among the factors he cited were the country's educators. That struck me as odd, and not very plausible, at the time. But the passing years have made that seem less and less odd, and more and more plausible... (more)

Gun Control

From a column by the gun editor at Field & Stream:

Q: "I just read that home defense is now the No. 1 reason that people buy guns. Why do you think that is?"

A: "I believe that more and more people these days are paying attention to what shooting instructor Clint Smith says: "When seconds count, the police are only minutes away." I also think the rise in gun sales is an inverse indicator of our faith in government to do anything very effectively, including protect us from harm. Or, look at it this way: If Joe Biden says that no one wants to take away your Beretta, would you be especially comforted?"
##

NOTE: F&S must remain circumspect and politically correct to some degree, but I think if they were more candid, they would add that historical documents prove that the purpose of the Second Amendment was less about protection from marauders, and more about protection from our own corrupt government. While Biden may be just inept, other, more dangerous officials in the current administration (Eric Holder, for example) have been quoted during their careers as favoring the end of gun ownership by private citizens.

Freedom-loving Americans are waiting and watching....keeping our powder dry.
Groundhog Day.

How strange is this??

In the coming New Year, 2013, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address will occur on the same day. This is an ironic juxtaposition of events. One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to an insignificant creature of little intelligence for prognostication. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The other involves a groundhog. :-)

"IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU’VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM"


Wow, what a simple approach- Maybe there is a little common sense left in the world.


great idea !!!

"IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU’VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM"
WRITTEN BY A 21 YEAR OLD FEMALE
Wow, this girl has a great plan!

This was written by a 21 yr old female who gets it. It's her future she's worried about and this is how she feels about the social welfare big government state that she's being forced to live in! These solutions are just common sense in her opinion.

This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco , TX , Nov 18, 2011

PUT ME IN CHARGE . . .

Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.

Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, or smoke, then get a job.

Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.

In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the "common good.."

Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.

If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

AND While you are on Gov't subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov't welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.

Now, if you have the guts - PASS IT ON...I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO GET THIS BACK, IF EVERYONE SENDS IT, I WILL GET OVER 220 BACK!!! I WOULD KNOW YOU SENT IT ON!!!
