Separation of Church and State
By Bob Burdick Wednesday, June 5, 2013
Those who embrace “separation of church and state” cite the First Amendment of the Constitution as backing their stance. This has been screamed loud, long, and repeatedly, but is there a shred of truth to this claim? Let’s take a peek.
Why Do Democrats and Left-Wingers Hate the First Amendment?By Tim Dunkin Tuesday, June 4, 2013
Left-wingers hate the Constitution. You know it. I know it. Anybody with any sense knows it. Their disdain for the 2nd amendment is manifest for all to see. Despite supposedly being a bunch of hippies, they’ve never passed up an opportunity to expand the police powers of the state at the expense of the 4th amendment. The 10th amendment—never heard of it. Those on the Left can’t be bothered to even assure that their presidential candidates meet the Article II, Section 1.5 requirements for presidential eligibility.
Maryland v. King and the Total Loss of Our Bodily IntegrityBy John W. Whitehead Monday, June 3, 2013
“Make no mistake about it: As an entirely predictable consequence of today’s decision, your DNA can be taken and entered into a national DNA database if you are ever arrested, rightly or wrongly, and for whatever reason.” – Justice Antonin Scalia, dissenting in Maryland v. King
As I document in my new book, Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State, our freedoms—especially the Fourth Amendment—are being choked out by a prevailing view among government bureaucrats that they have the right to search, seize, strip, scan, spy on, probe, pat down, taser, and arrest any individual at any time and for the slightest provocation.
Obama/Holder Justice Department Threatens First AmendmentBy Cliff Kincaid Monday, June 3, 2013
Reacting to reports that the Obama Department of Justice may prosecute those who write and post articles offensive to Muslims, Pamela Geller of the American Freedom Defense Initiative has vowed, “We will fight you on this every step of the way. We will drag your dhimmi asses all the way to the Supreme Court. This is Sharia enforcement, and we are not going to stand for it.”
Dick Durbin not sure the 1st Amendment applies to bloggers, ‘new media,’ etc…
By Robert Laurie Wednesday, May 29, 2013
Last week, I was discussing the Media Shield Law with some friends. I argued that the provision would be used to silence new media. Sure it would protect the old news outlets like NBC, ABC, and the AP, but Congress despises the new world of bloggers and social media. They’ve been unable to control it, haven’t figured out how to silence it, and have proven completely incapable of using it themselves.
Agenda 21 and Thomas JeffersonBy Douglas V. Gibbs Tuesday, May 28, 2013
Agenda 21 is a United Nations resolution and treaty that remains unratified by the United States Senate, and therefore is not a treaty we are required by the law of the land to conform to. The members of the liberal left ideology will claim, if they are familiar with it, that Agenda 21 is a mandate, or should be.

Be Afraid. Be Very AfraidBy Alan Caruba Wednesday, May 22, 2013
From its earliest days, even before the Revolution, Americans valued their newspapers and understood they played a crucial role in the issues and events of the times in which they lived. It would take a while, however, before newspapers evolved from highly partisan advocates of the early political factions to their role as watchdogs of government.
Is this still America?

Texas Republican Congressman Kevin Brady asked during the IRS hearings last week: “Is this still America?”
Silencing Free Speech on College CampusesBy Alan Caruba Monday, May 20, 2013
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the people peacefully to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
Missing AmericaBy J.D. Longstreet Sunday, May 19, 2013
With Memorial Day and the 4th of July (celebrated as Independence Day in the United States) fast approaching, scribes all over the nation are dutifully dipping their quills into their inkwells to scribble the obligatory few lines on the topic: “What America Means to me”, again this year, as in every year since, well, since 1776, I suppose.
Rise of the Obama ‘Reich’By Paula Helton Tuesday, May 14, 2013
The time has come for Americans to stop bending to the will of the PC enablers and define the Obama Administration for what it is;
The Obama Reich. How else to describe the eerily similar parallels of Barack Obama and Adolph Hitler?
There are numerous comparisons to be made. In writing this, I focused on four of them.
