Freedom Of Speech, “The Religion Of Peace”, And The Ground Zero Mosque

Interesting how there are no threats from Christians worldwide when the Iranian Government confiscates and burns Bibles.  However, riots erupt when a cartoon depicting Mohammad is published or there is a threat of widespread violence at even the talk of burning a Koran. Here is the link: Hundreds of Bibles Have Been Burned By The Iranian Government Security Forces Here is an ad by New York Congressional Candidate Republican Renee Ellmers about the Ground Zero Mosque controversy.  It is nice to actually hear a candidate who is not afraid to speak the truth about this issue and cite historical facts to back up her position.

Open Carry In Wisconsin

Below is the City of West Allis case regarding Brad Krause that brought about the open carry memo by Wisconsin Attorney General J.P. Van Hollen. There is a more recent case regarding open carry in the news from Madison: ‘Open carry’ group pledges to sue police for issuing citations From an email by Gene German – The Wisconsin Gun Rights Examiner A lawsuit has been filed in Federal court against the City of West Allis by Brad Krause, the man arrested at gunpoint while planting a tree. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN YOU In August of 2008 Brad was enjoying the summer weather by planting a tree in his yard when a neighbor called the West Allis Police Department wondering if a person can wear a holstered firearm within city limits. Police responded by sending two squad cars to Brad’s residence where they found him digging a hole for the tree lying on the ground next to him. The officers immediately drew their weapons and handcuffed him at gunpoint. IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO EXCUSE FOR YOU–AND CERTAINLY NOT FOR POLICE After forty-five minutes of standing in his yard trying to figure out what crime they could charge him with,…

Quotes From James Madison

The following are a few quotes from James Madison that are timeless.  The progressives often say the authors of the Constitution couldn’t possibly have imagined how things would be today.  They try to tell you the Constitution is “a living, breathing document.”  These quotes show just how much knowledge and insight our Founding Fathers had. “Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government.” “Each generation should be made to bear the burden of its own wars, instead of carrying them on, at the expense of other generations.” “I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.” “If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.” “It is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged to the provisions against danger, real or pretended, from abroad.” “No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.” “Of all the enemies of…

Karl Rove Shows His True Colors

Here is the video of NeoCon Karl Rove speaking about the Delaware primary win of Christine O’Donnell: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Jlh1EsgS7Q] This is another demonstration that the establishment Republicans are NeoCons trying to either co-opt the Tea Party / Patriot movement or ensure that the true conservatives lose.  Many times we have argued that the elites in BOTH parties are taking us down the same road, just riding on different sides.  This is further proof. See conservative columnist Michelle Malkin’s blog for more on this story: Rove bashes O’Donnell; O’Donnell supporter at victory party strikes back; NRSC cuts and runs; Soros Republican Castle won’t back O’Donnell; Update:NRSC flip flops, Rush Limbaugh weighs in: “Balls to the wall”

Pastors Taken To Task For Political Apathy

Even though he was very wrong in signing the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1798, our 2nd President, John Adams, was right when he stated: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.  It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Many have asked where the nations pastors are in the fight to take back our country.  The Black Robe Regiment was instrumental in the American Revolution.  So where have the pastors been that our country has gotten in the shape it is in?  Where are they now when they are needed most?  Here is a great article by World Net Daily about this very issue:  Pastors taken to task for political apathy Remember Pastor Martin Niemoller’s verse about the dangers of political apathy?  Niemoller, writing about the apathy that allowed the Nazis  to victimize group after group, put it in very simple terms: They came first for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then…

Support From The Wisconsin 9/12 Group – Standing For The 1st Amendment

Here is an email I received from Kirsten Lombard of the Wisconsin 9/12 Project In Madison.  We thank them for their support and applaud them for their courage and understanding of this issue.  We may have differences on some issues, but this is a principle everyone in our movement should understand! FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS: The Wisconsin 9/12 Project Stands with the Rock River Patriots Dan, I find Mr. Belling’s refusal simply to issue a correction more than regrettable. I’m also bothered by his assumption that local grassroots groups do not have a right to inform the voters about what they find in relationship to candidate vetting. You’re precisely right in pointing out to Mr. Belling that he is advocating–or at least indicating his preference for–a curtailment of your 1st Amendment rights. I wonder how he’d like it if someone told him that as a radio host, he should only speak about certain things in sanctioned ways. That day may be closer than he thinks, so perhaps we’ll find out. In any event, when followed to its natural conclusion, Mr. Belling’s argument shakes out thus: As a radio host with a bully pulpit, he has the right to say whatever he…

Rock River Patriots Response To Mark Belling’s LIES Part 2

from BELLING, MARK C. <MarkBelling@clearchannel.com> to Rock River Patriots <rockriverpatriots@gmail.com> date Thu, Jul 15, 2010 at 1:54 PM subject RE: Rock River Patriots Response To Mark Belling’s LIE about us mailed-by clearchannel.com Did your group comment on Ron Johnson or not? My point is that nobody should speak for the “Tea Party” and organized groups with leaders is anathema to the movement. It is my contention your group should offer no comments on anything but should merely be a forum for citizens to express their own grievances. It is remarkably arrogant for one group to attempt to co-op a movement, particularly when that group appears to be very liberal on a number of issues, including the war on terrorism. Most tea party attendees support the anti-terror effort, the Patriot Act and strongly defend Israel. from Rock River Patriots <rockriverpatriots@gmail.com> date Fri, Jul 16, 2010 at 7:37 AM subject Re: Rock River Patriots Response To Mark Belling’s LIE about us mailed-by gmail.com Mark, You are not addressing the reason for the email in the first place. You LIED about our group saying we “are trying to speak for the whole movement” and “running around trying to endorse candidates and pass judgement.”…
