Notable Quote – Rick Wilson

On the Slippery Slope we see going on right before us: On a hundred-year time scale you have more to fear from an unaccountable government than you do from radical Islam. A bureaucracy empowered to place you on a list where your rights can be excised or suspended will follow the inevitable path of all … Read more

So Kelly Ayotte and Jeanne Shaheen, THIS is the kind of Due Process you want?

One that is unConstitutional and, well, hasn’t any “due” to the bureaucratic process now in place?  Again, you want to CHAMPION this Hotel “due process” California hell? (emphasis mine, reformatted)

Currently, it can take years for an innocent individual to get off the list. Take for example Rahinah Ibrahim, an innocent Stanford professor and PhD student who was improperly placed on the list. It took her eight years to get off.

In 2005, Rahinah Ibrahim, a Malaysian architecture professor and doctoral candidate at Stanford University, went to San Francisco International Airport where she was told that she couldn’t board an airplane. Her name was on a government no-fly list of suspected terrorists.

Eight years of court battles later,

Kevin Williamson of NRO on the current state of Democrats vs the Constitution

quote-a-man-s-rights-rest-in-three-boxes-the-ballot-box-the-jury-box-and-the-cartridge-box-frederick-douglass-60-75-82The Corner:

The bearing of arms is a sign of citizenship, which is to say, of being a full participant in government who acts through it, as opposed to subjectship, the state of being a passive being who does not act through government but who is acted upon. In that sense, it is like the ability to vote or to be eligible for service in government. Frederick Douglass understood this linkage perfectly, inasmuch as these ideas were much better understood in those more literate days. “A man’s rights rest in three boxes,” he said.

Notable Quote – Randy Holcombe

Freedom is meaningless if we are only free to make choices that meet with government approval. The Progressive ideology compromises freedom and takes away the individual rights that at one time justified the existence of our American government. Progressivism is a direct attack on freedom. -Prof. Randy Holcombe Of course it is – that’s what Socialism … Read more

Round up of the Elite response to Brexit and brief thoughts on them

That would be the “beta males” referenced by Steve.  I have seen a ton of Chicken Little posts over the last few days so let me put up some snippets here.  However, let me quote David French who put it better than I could what has been causing my head to shake (and ache) over the vote taken in Britain last week in describing what the “Side of History” really means to Progressives and what their version of “progress” has been these last few decades

I’m old enough to remember when history had a side. History, you see, had chosen to progress toward an international order that de-emphasized international sovereignty, elevated a bureaucratic and technocratic elite, and sought to solve international conflict through a combination of moral and economic pressure. Nations caused wars, so nationalism (and even patriotism) had to be set aside. Democracy unleashed bigotry, so “the people” mattered mainly when they agreed with the elite. It was a system that worked remarkably well for the international upper class. Men and women dedicated to commerce enjoyed unprecedented access to international markets. Activists dedicated to social justice could engineer their societies without ever truly facing the accountability of the ballot box. The logic of the system was self-proving. It would triumph through the sheer force of its virtue.

OMG! Hillary Clinton Lied Again!?

Lies, lies, and more lies. It was November 2010, and Abedin had urged the secretary to get onto the state.gov e-mail system or look at “releasing your email address to the department” because State’s spam filter was blocking messages from clintonemail.com. No, came Clinton’s reply: “Let’s get separate address or device but I don’t want … Read more

Why Do We Have to Guess?

Why do we have to guess how @ChrisSununu is going to vote on #pp ? #nhpolitics #nhgov @steinhauserNH1 @WMUR9_Politics — Frank Edelblut (@Edelblut4NH) June 27, 2016 Good question.

Is anyone else tired of politicians and gun-grabbers unwilling to say the obvious?

of the Constitution?From the Union Leader:

Kuster said Congress must act to expand background checks for gun sales at shows and online, and if a suspected terrorist is considered too dangerous to fly, they should not be able to buy a gun.

No, it is NOT that “they should not be able to buy a gun” – Annie Kuster is just the latest to be quoted saying it.  Certainly, Kelly Ayotte has been saying it (but Jeanne Shaheen thinks we’re all bad for buying guns and have ill intent). All these self-adoring, pandering, power-hungry “that Constitutional thingie is just dried parchment” control freaks are doing is using the most horrific terrorist acts in recent history (9/11).

They should be tarred and feathered.  All of them.

First, for being said

Reality Check on Trump v. Hillary

trumphillaryNo one has an official nomination but for our purposes, the field is set. We got Trump and Clinton. For the sake of argument let’s pander to all the haters and assume that both of them intend to run roughshod over the constitution. Just play along, please.

In our Constitutional Republic, the power granted the Federal government is divided among three branches. Under Mr. Obama, the Executive Branch has exceeded its authority repeatedly with nary a whimper from Congress. Looking forward which of the two likely Constitutional roughshod-riders to replace him is more likely to be reigned in by Congress? Hillary, or Donald?

It’s Not About Women’s Healthcare

We open our 150th episode on the topic of taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood (PP). We talk about the contract to take your money compared to how much PP spends on lobbying to get  your money. The tens of millions spent by PP on political action that could go to women’s healthcare, if this had … Read more

Planned Parenthood Doesn’t Need Your Money

PlannedParenthood-logoYesterday I observed that there was a high probability that Republican Executive Councilor Chris Sununu was going to vote to fund Planned Parenthood retroactively with your taxpayer dollars. As a Republican and the deciding vote, this has attracted some attention but not necessarily for the reason that it should.

Regardless of how you may feel about whatever it is that Planned Parenthood does they do not need your money to do it, and no matter what is in “the contract” Councilor Sununu should know that.

Only in a Gun-Free Zone Culture Over-Populated by Progressive Snowflake Beta-Males, Does this Video Makes Any Sense

https://www.facebook.com/MDRFs.King.Henry/videos/10153557451811210/

How many things are wrong in this video? Let me mention at least a few.
1) If guns were still like Muskets the folks in this room would have a pistol or rifle at hand or nearby. Citizens bearing their arms would surround him. They would prevent further action by threat of force or actual force.
2) He would have known the facts in item 1 and would have weighed that against his urge to do violence.
