US Constitution, Second Amendment:

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

NH Constitution, Article 2A:

All persons have the right to keep and bear arms in defense of themselves, their families, their property and the state.

And yet, Democrats / Socialists keep believing that they can ignore those plain words.

Boy, Marco squirms in and out of the “immigration hole” faster than the Eldest’s pet snake.  We Conservatives had problems with this former TEA Party darling since he decided that he would hook up with Senator Chuckie Schumer (D-NY) who basically took him to the cleaners w/respect illegal immigration.  A lot of us went “HUH?” when Schumer sent him forth to try to “convince” Conservatives “hey, this Amnesty isn’t all that bad!”.

Downhill from there and this has dogged him ever since.  This is what happens when you break the Consistency rule – on such an important issue, Trust has been lost.  The problem is that with Rubio’s constant straddling that line (like a football player doing foot drills, one side and then the other) with small steps first this side and then another.  So who knows what his real intentions are?  And today, he made it REAL problematic for himself and the primary voters on Meet The Press – it really was a head scratcher for me:

TODD: Let me ask you, by the way, quickly, on the eleven million [illegal aliens residing in the United States]. Are you still for find a way for them to stay legally in the United States?

Rubio: We are not going to be able to do anything on people who are here illegally until we first prove to people that illegal immigration is under control and America is safe.

WHAT?

We’re in the best of hands – ugh.  The only thing I can say is that for the first time in a long time, here’s a journalist doing real journalism – and making it entertaining!

Of course Hillary can’t because she CAN’T; it would finally admitting that Democrats hate our entire system of government – Socialists HATE our stated form of government, a Constitutional Republic with democratically elected Representatives.  Instead, they feel put upon that THEY just can’t rule by fiat (re: Obama) or see us ruled by like-minded technocratic bureaucrats.  After all, THEY are the experts – all-knowing and (??) non-partisan.  Except we know, in the latter case, they aren’t and they aren’t.  But they certainly keep trying to change America, little by little, decade by decade, all the same.

Back to Hillary – here’s Chris Matthews, once again, asking this top level Democrat “what’s the difference between a Democrat and a Socialist”?

Notice the prevarication, the hesitation, the deflection and finally, the outright refusal to answer.  It’s rather easy: both want to rule your lives and how you live it.  THEY want to use government to determine every jot and tittle of how a “free” American is to live, according to THEIR precepts.  Ours?  Not so much.  My measuring stick is quite simple: what area of your live remains totally untouched by government law, statute, regulation, or ordinance?And even more important (and sadder), why have we allowed this to happen?

My Youngest was supposed to be in Texas today for the unveiling of a documentary of his unit, part of the 101st Airborne, as they spent a year in Afghanistan up in the Pech Valley at what was COP (Combat Outpost) Michigan – the most attacked US facility by the Taliban during that time period.  Unfortunately, he came down sick a couple of days ago and had to cancel.  That doesn’t mean that Dad can’t show the trailer:
