OK, Who are the Two Idiots?

The Two Americas

Just 53% Say Capitalism Better Than Socialism [More]
We'll be able to vote our way out of this, right?

Give Me Your Huddled Masses, Yearning to Vote Democrat

"[C]omprehensive immigration legislation, including a plan to make legal status possible for an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants, would be a priority in his first year in office." [More]
I see a lot of comments on "conservative" Internet sites complaining bitterly about this.

Sorry, but what did we expect Obama to do with the windfall handed him? That's like blaming a snake for biting.

Thank John McCain, George Bush, the US Chamber of Commerce, and the neo-con "leaders" of the Stupid Party for handing the socialists a democrat majority on a silver platter.

The GOP had eight years in the White House and a majority in both house of Congress to fix this and they betrayed every member of their core constituency by not doing so--and by pushing their own brand of amnesty. As if that would have made the socialists stop hating them.

This is the result of We the People settling for what is presented as "pragmatism" instead of insisting on principle. If we had made a practice of routinely throwing RINOs under the bus instead of supporting them because "otherwise a democrat would win," the lesson would have been learned after a couple sacrifices--and even (especially) those with malleable "principles" would toe the line out of sheer survival instinct.

As pal Steiger observes, "We've been conned. Bare-ass naked in the town square conned."

We're the Only Ones Putting that Old Spark Back into Our Marriage Enough

The chief of a small Central Texas town's police department has been fired and jailed for allegedly using a Taser gun on his wife. [More]
And it's not the first time:
Court records show in December of 2003, while Ivy was not employed by a police department, he was charged with domestic violence.
So naturally, "the city never did a background check." They just set him loose on the community because after all, who rules whom?

Violent "Only Ones." I only wish I could say that's shocking.

ABC Plans Hit Piece on Guns

When it comes to protecting yourself, you may think "if I only had a gun." But if you had a gun, could you protect yourself in a crisis? How easy is it to obtain a gun? And what explains the nearly irresistible attraction of young people to firearms? Diane Sawyer investigates, with reporting by David Muir, on "If I Only Had a Gun," airing on "20/20," Friday, April 10 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. The hour also features hidden camera experiments and expert analysis. [More]

Resolution of Obama Birth Controversy at Hand?

A friend sent me a link to a story about an Oklahoma City police officer pulling a motorist over for having an "Abort Obama Not the Unborn" sign on his car. The sign was confiscated and the Secret Service investigated. [More]

Many of you are aware that there is a vocal effort being waged challenging Obama's "natural born citizen" credentials. While supporters predictably dismiss this as sour grapes by right wing kooks, the issue is divisive enough that we as Americans deserve to see it unequivocally resolved without partisan rhetoric from either side.

The thought strikes--while the sign was eventually returned, motorist Chip Harrison's First Amendment right was temporarily abridged. He ought to have legal recourse for that.

Since the alleged violation he committed involved a threat against the president, wouldn't determining if the person he was accused of threatening actually was the president be admissible?

Perhaps if Harrison does not have standing, anyone currently charged with making a threat against the president ought to have their attorney explore this further...

"Not a Scientific Survey"

Obama gets an "F." [More]

It may not be scientific, but 1,924,174 responses is significant, and the overwhelming negative response may tell us something about the level of feeling of one group vs. another.

The Gatekeeper of All Knowledge

How did "The Outer Limits" begin?
There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission.
Does anyone need further proof that "Authorized Journalists" suppress news that is vital to a free society and does not support their socialist political agenda? The same socialist talking about reimposing the Orwellian "Fairness Doctrine"?

They're not just propagandists, they are co-conspirators.

One can only hope this arrogant **** will be astonished some day. [More]

What Does Obama's Weather Control Plan Have to Do with Gun Rights?

Regular Gun Rights Examiner readers will recall we discussed U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly's ruling on carrying guns in national parks. Her bottom line was, it could not be allowed without an environmental impact study.

Think how much less of an impact the very rare occurrences of a peaceable armed citizen firing a gun in self-defense would have on the environment than, say, "shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun’s rays." Or, for that matter, "reducing greenhouse gases." [More]
Perhaps, by capitalizing on the CUM ULLA SELLA IN PUGNO TABERNA philosophy, we can set things up so that leftists collide...

Today's Gun Rights Examiner column explores the megalomaniacal control freakishness that is Obama and the Congress.

Also read more about the Gallup Poll on gun attitudes, be reminded of an important resistance movement, find out where Oath Keepers will be on April 19, and, of course, read the latest from my fellow GREs.
