NEW ON THE ENDANGERED SPECIES LIST: The 1st and 2nd Amendments

A friend and I were talking today, and I noticed I hadn't talked abut EITHER of these issues on this blog . . . and why? Because there is an UNPRECEDENTED amount of crap on Osama Bin Barack, that's why. Any other year, any ONE of these issues would be their undoing. What is it with America that he has even come THIS FAR?

THE FIRST AMENDMENT-going the way of the American Buffalo. Ever hear of the "Fairness Doctrine?" Well if the Democrats have control of the House, Senate, and the White House, there goes our freedom of speech. Right out the window. And why? because people didn't want to be EDUCATED about the candidates and the issue,s relying instead on sound bites so they could watch Desperate Housewives and play more golf? The "Fairness Doctrine," as the Dems want it to be applied, would be used primarily to shut down talk radio alltogether. Many believe it would be used basically to get Rush Limbaugh off the air. So what is it? It would Rush, among others, to provide as much information/coverage on one side of an issue as it does on the other. In other words, Rush would have to devote HALF his show to providing LIBERAL viewpoints. That's crap. 1)the TV networks have been one-sided for far too long, and as appealing as the idea is to have more FAIR television coverage, I don't think it should be REQUIRED. If you don't like it, don't LISTEN TO RUSH. There's a crazy thought! And if I don't like NBC's biased one-sided in-the-tank for Osama coverage, I don't have to watch. And so I don't. But even THINKING about requiring such a thing is DANGEROUS.

THE SECOND AMENDMENT-Kiss your gun goodbye. You can Google it if you want. the information is simply voluminess. But I have seen NO EVIDENCE of any single vote Barack Obama has cast AGAINST a limit on firearms. Here are a couple of tidbits for ya . . .
Politicians today try to say all the right things to get as many votes as they possibly can. However, when we evaluate their past statements and voting records, we can find out the truth about what they stand for. One issue that is near and dear to the hearts of many Americans is gun control. This is, perhaps, one of the greatest issues separating people, and separating many candidates today. It is certainly an issue that many voters consider before casting their vote for a candidate. Where does Barak Obama stand on this vital issue? He has made enough statements concerning the subject of gun control to give us a fair idea of his own position, as well as what he would do if elected president. I got the following from: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/630645/barak_obamas_gun_control_positions.html

"In 2000, Barak Obama cosponsored a bill that would have limited the purchase of handguns to one per month. That may not sound significant, but the truth is, such a bill would impede the rights of law abiding citizens. There is no justifiable reason to limit the ability of people who have no criminal record from purchasing any legal fire arm. Obama at the same time also voted against allowing people to violate local fire arms bans even in the case of self protection. What does that mean in application? Criminals who are already breaking the law have nothing to worry about, because Obama has made sure that law abiding citizens cannot carry a weapon to protect themselves against those criminals.

According to the 1998 Illinois State Legislative National Political Awareness Test of July 2, 1998, Obama also supports the banning of all semi-automatic weapon sales and transfers. When most people hear "semi-automatic weapon", they think of the gun in the hand of the gang banger. That may be true, but there are a lot of other guns that are semi-automatic, which would also be included in such bans. Shotguns, for example, that are used by bird hunters would fall under the ban. The only reason to try to ban a whole class of gun, with such a wide stroke, is to start the progression of banning all guns eventually."

I'll do some more homework. And it would be nice if some of those who CHOOSE to not be educated, and think they are getting the whole story by watching edited sound bites of a man reading someone else's word from a teleprompter . . . if a FEW OF YOU would do yours too!! You only have yourself to blame when we are in a DEPRESSION, hit by terrorism AGAIN on our soil, taxed to the hilt, without the right to SPEAK or BEAR ARMS, all because judgment, character, voting record, and experience didn't matter . . . you just wanted "change."

Whatever. Obama makes me sick, and if he doesn't scare YOU then YOU'RE either a radical like he is or you're too dumb to know what's going on, period. There, is that strong enough for ya?
