An Empty Meaning Anyway

Filed under: Austin, Church and State — Austin Farley at 9:45 pm on Monday, January 5, 2009

What does“So Help Me God” really mean to this Godless lot in DC? What difference does it really make if they remove So Help Me God when these people obviously do not believe in God or anything related to Christianity? I want it kept in there, but it  means nothing when ALL of those in office continue to destroy this nation that was founded on the laws of Christianity.

Wisconsin Consortium Sought on 10th Amendment

Filed under: Bill of Rights, Congress, Mickey — Mickey at 7:20 pm on Monday, January 5, 2009

Why don’t we do this in Tennessee?

This is from a fellow constitutionalist in Wisconsin: 

I am interested in procuring State wide support to build a large consortium of citizens interested in supporting the 9th and 10th Amendments of The Constitution by a joint resolution simular to Oklahoma 1089 introduced by State Rep Charles Key; which is as follows:

The resolution’s language, in part, reads: “Whereas, the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States reads as follows: ‘The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.’; and Whereas, the Tenth Amendment defines the total scope of federal power as being that specifically granted by the Constitution of the United States and no more; and whereas, the scope of power defined by the Tenth Amendment means that the federal government was created by the states specifically to be an agent of the states; and Whereas, today, in 2008, the states are demonstrably treated as agents of the federal government. … Now, therefore, be it resolved by the House of Representatives and the Senate of the 2nd session of the 51st Oklahoma Legislature: that the State of Oklahoma hereby claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government by the Constitution of the United States. That this serve as Notice and Demand to the federal government, as our agent, to cease and desist, effective immediately, mandates that are beyond the scope of these constitutionally delegated powers.”

Key’s resolution passed in the Oklahoma House of Representatives with a 92 to 3 vote, but it reached a bottleneck in the Senate where it languished until adjournment.

However, Key plans to reintroduce the measure when the legislature reconvenes.

Federal usurpation goes beyond anything the Constitution’s framers would have imagined. James Madison, explaining the constitution, in Federalist Paper 45, said, “The powers delegated … to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, [such] as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce. … The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people.” Thomas Jefferson emphasized that the states are not “subordinate” to the national government, but rather the two are “coordinate departments of one simple and integral whole. … The one is the domestic, the other the foreign branch of the same government.”

Both parties and all branches of the federal government have made a mockery of the checks and balances, separation of powers and the republican form of government envisioned by the founders. One of the more disgusting sights for me to is to watch a president, congressman or federal judge take an oath to uphold and defend the United States Constitution, when in reality they either hold constitutional principles in contempt or they are ignorant of those principles.

State efforts, such as Oklahoma’s, create a glimmer of hope that one day Americans and their elected representatives will realize that the federal government is the creation of the states. A bit of rebellion by officials in other states will speed that process along.

Can anybody help to facilitate this cause to build a consortium of Wisconsin citizens?

Ron Paul on the invasion of Gaza

Filed under: General — Mickey at 6:46 pm on Monday, January 5, 2009

Dr. Paul, in a video posted on YouTube, observed that “the whole idea of preemptive, preventative war is spreading,” as initiated by the United States against Iraq. He observed that “the position that [the United States] should hold is that we should be on neither side.”

Land Confiscation for Flight 93 Memorial

Filed under: Mickey — Mickey at 6:29 pm on Friday, January 2, 2009

Well, should the Government do this?

Relatives of those who perished on board Flight 93 when that aircraft crashed during the 9/11 terrorist attacks are now asking that the federal government seize land from a private owner in order to move forward on work for a memorial to the victims. The land in question is owned by Mike Svonavec of Svonavec Inc. in Somerset, Pennsylvannia. The letter from the families of the victims was sent after negotiations between Svonavec and the National Park Service recently bogged down, putting in jeopardy plans to hold a 10th anniversary dedicaiton ceremony for the proposed 2,200 acre, $58 million memorial.

Did We All Miss The Boat On This?

Did Bush really sign a law to screen and gather the DNA of all newborns in the US or is this a load of junk? Someone please confirm this for me.

How Deep Into The Obama Camp Does This Go?

Filed under: Austin, Cesspool — Austin Farley at 9:47 am on Friday, December 26, 2008

The attorney for embattled Illinois Governor, Blagojevich, is seeking subpoenas for Obama staffers. How mixed up in this is Obama and his staff? After seeing Detroit’s mayor as well as the cast of the TN Waltz in my area I would not be shocked if this goes all the way to Obama. I doubt there is a clean politician in office today and Obama being “dirty” would not surprise me in the least. Just look at what I have to compare him to.

Here is wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.

Oh by the way, we just can’t get away from the kooks.

CSIRO researchers said householders should know that each bulb turned on in the name of Christmas will increase emissions of greenhouse gases.

Fire up those lights for Jesus’s birthday party! If they think the bulbs cause global warming, just wait until He come back.

Can You Really Blame Them?

Filed under: Austin, First Amendment — Austin Farley at 9:23 am on Wednesday, December 24, 2008

China, that wonderful country that we cannot import enough goods from, has blocked the New York Times website. I do not really know if this is a good or bad thing considering what liberal trash the New York Times is. Seriously, the Times should not be blocked. No matter what is said they still have a right to say it. Well, not in China because it is a communist country.

Does anyone not see a problem with China and their practices and our country importing their goods? I see American jobs lost daily due to our worship of the Chinese and their cheap goods. Factories and tax dollars go to China almost as fast as our tax dollars will go to Obama’s social programs. This country cannot stand this much longer. Unless we force our officials to repeal these trade agreements and bring jobs back to this country we will not have to worry about our officials. This country will simply turn into West China.

Rick Warren, the CFR, and Barack Obama

Filed under: General — Mickey at 10:05 pm on Tuesday, December 23, 2008

Well I hate to tell you guys, but …

snip.

After the movement against the war in Vietnam, the violence driven civil rights activists, plus the charade of the collapse of communism, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and other radical terrorist organizations were given instructions to assimilate into the mainstream of America and work there to bring about socialism.
It is interesting to see how many of the former leaders in the SDS, Black Panthers and other communist controlled organizations became religious leaders.
Stokley Carmichael of “Burn, Baby, Burn” fame, as well as H. Rap Brown, leader of the Black Panthers, became leaders of radical Islam to carry forward their Marxism.
Michael Lerner, whom J. Edgar Hoover called the most dangerous terrorist in America, the leader of the SDS in Seattle, became a rabbi.
And, Rick Warren, who led a march on his local courthouse for the SDS, has soared to great heights. Does he still believe what he professed in the 1960s?

Oh back to the news… I hate to tell you but

Rick Warren is a member of the CFR.

Marsha Blackburn - How Could YOU?

Filed under: Congress, Mickey, Right to Life, Second Amendment — Mickey at 12:36 pm on Saturday, December 20, 2008

It does not really matter what Marsha Blackburn says about Abortion or Gun Rights.  She does vote pro-life and pro-gun, but since she advocates foreign entanglements, she belies her positions. For in the long haul, if she takes strong positions while simultaneously advocating something that will overrule those positions, then she is being less than honest with her Tennessee constituents.  This is particularly true considering the United Nations.  No one can support the UN and state that they are opposed to abortion and support the Second Amendment. The reality is that the UN is the biggest supporter of gun confiscation and an intense ally of such organizations as Planned Parenthood. Yet many Tennesseans do not always connect the dots and gain an understanding of the subterfuge, particularly the conservative citizen. They will applaud a politician who says she is pro-life or pro-gun and ignore the fact that she is pro-UN — or in favor of regional governments.  

This is Marsha Blackburn.  She loves the United Nations.

Federal Express, the ‘pay cuts’, Fred Smith and the CFR

Filed under: Mickey — Mickey at 5:33 pm on Friday, December 19, 2008

I see that FDX (Federal Express and subsidiaries), are incorporating drastic (and correct!?!) cuts to pay and other compensations.  This is better than laying people off. 

My question is:  Will Fred Smith, Member of the Council on Foreign Relations, cut the $30,000.00 annual contribution for Federal Express’ Corporate ‘Premium’ membership in the CFR ?

laissez-faire capitalism

Filed under: Economy, Mickey — Mickey at 6:28 pm on Thursday, December 18, 2008

Many liberal commentators have placed the blame for our nation’s current economic difficulties on “laissez-faire capitalism,” which they never define. George Reisman, Pepperdine University Professor Emeritus of Economics, insists that the term should be defined as “private ownership of the means of production [with government] limited to the protection of the individual’s rights against the initiation of physical force.” He would welcome a return to such a system. He states: “There are presently 15 federal cabinet departments, nine of which exist for the very purpose of respectively interfering with housing, transportation, healthcare, education, energy, mining, agriculture, labor, and commerce.” Claiming that these intrusions are the underlying cause of America’s economic travails, he adds, “Under laissez-faire capitalism, 11 of the 15 cabinet departments would cease to exist and only the departments of justice, defense, state and treasury would remain.”
