Why Atty. Gen. Holder Is Opposed to American Citizens Having Guns

Atty. Gen. Holder says, "We have no right to possess guns". He is apparently referring to the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
   
Let's take a look at the Second Amendment. It says, "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". Notice that it is a very short statement, which is very different than the 2000+ pages of Obama's health care bill. There are two possible reasons for having such a large document as the Health Care Bill. One is to discourage anyone from reading it, and the other is to be very explicit about every point possibly related to the subject.
    
Since the Second Amendment is a very short statement, it cannot be considered as a discouragement to anyone reading it, nor is it explicit on the many possible points related to it. However, it suffers by leaving open different interpretations, such as that of Atty. Gen. Holder and the National Rifle Association.
    
One way of deciding which of the various interpretations is correct is to look at the context of political conditions at the time the Second Amendment  was written.
    
Prior to 1776, the American colonists were British subjects. The Parliament in England had imposed a Stamp Tax in 1765 and the Tea Tax in 1773. Both taxes were very unpopular with the American colonists, and in 1775, a segment of the colonist society physically revolted against its British government. This was followed by a Declaration of Independence in 1776. The Declaration did not initially receive significant support from the colonists, but the war had already started in 1775. It continued until 1783. The war was protracted for eight years, because the British had difficulty with a long supply line to America, while the colonists had insufficient weapons.
    
After the British conceded victory to the colonists, a new American government was set up through the Constitution of 1787, which was four years after the close of the war. The Bill of Rights, of which the Second Amendment is a part, was established in 1791, eight years after the war.
    
The question is what was in the collective mind of the American leaders in 1791, eight years after a very difficult war. People do not generally forget major events that have affected their lives, even over an extended lifetime. There is no doubt that the citizens of the newly established nation and its leaders clearly remembered the difficulties they had in defeating the British. They knew that one of their major problems was insufficient arms. They also knew that government could become onerous to its citizens and that there might be occasions where revolt would be necessary, even in cases where government was controlling from a near geographical position, as opposed to across an ocean.
    
There's little doubt that our forefathers wanted to have us retain firearms in order to protect ourselves from an overreaching government or from a foreign force which local government is unable to repel.
    
The leaders of our present government and its successors obviously do not like the threat of citizen military action against them. As a means to minimize that threat, they naturally oppose citizens having firearms.
    
It behooves citizens to be sure that no regulations are passed and enforced which would eliminate their control of firearms.

The State of Virginia Encourages Fraud in Its Operations

Cuccinelli is the Virginia State Attorney General. Mann was an Assistant Professor at the University of Virginia.
   
Mann received a state grant of funds to investigate climate and later became a strong proponent of global warming and the greenhouse gas theory. Cuccinelli suspected fraud in use of the funds from the state grant. He subpoenaed the University of Virginia to obtain access to Mann's e-mails and other documents relating to the research. The University of Virginia refused, and the case went to the Virginia Supreme Court.
   
The Virginia Supreme Court decided that Cuccinelli had no right to access Mann's records, notwithstanding the fact that state funds were involved. The Court held that while Virginia law allows the attorney general to investigate individuals or businesses that receive state funds, state agencies, including the University of Virginia, may not be similarly investigated.
   
 It appears to me that if anyone wants to steal public funds in Virginia, he would be well advised to first obtain a job with the state, wherein he would be exempt from investigation.

America/s Last Election?

    The following was sent to me by a friend:

 

 WE, IN AMERICA, ARE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE.....

Pathfinder says: Could 2012 be America’s Last Presidential Election?

Food for thought.

I’ve asked this question to a number of people and most them respond as if I were crazy for asking. They tell me that this is America, land of the free and that there will always be elections. I tell them that we are no longer the land of the free and that if Obama gets re-elected in 2012, that this just may be America’s last election.

In the past three years, the Obama administration has been very carefully crafting the nation for a political take over by his Marxist regime and this isn’t just my opinion.

Popular radio talk show host Michael Savage is the son of Russian immigrants and is very familiar with Soviet and European history. Savage warned his listeners this week saying, “I have to tell you that if this man, God forbid, is the next president of the United States, we’re going to be living in something along the lines of – people say Europe. I don’t believe it’s going to be like Europe – I think it will be closer to Chavez’s South American dictatorship.

“This is the most corrupt, incompetent, dangerous tyrannical administration in American history. It’s not politics as usual. It’s not just Democrats versus Republicans. Obama has a long history of being at odds with American values and with America itself and the core principles of this country. They don’t want government-sponsored opinions. They only want government-sponsored ‘Pravda.’ That’s exactly what the government-media complex tells you on a daily basis – nothing but the government-media complex party line. Pay attention. Your freedom may be at stake.”

Over the weekend, Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum told a small group of people in an Iowa coffee house that, “Barack Obama is not incompetent, ladies and gentleman. He knows exactly what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. He sees America differently than you see America.

[Obama] has gone out of his way to divide this country in a way I haven’t seen since the Great Depression when Franklin Roosevelt went around to divide his country. That’s his hero. What makes America great [in Obama’s mind is that] the government takes money from somebody and gives it to somebody else. No, that’s what makes America, France.” With his control over the Executive and Judicial branches of the government, the stage is set for a complete takeover of the government. Think about it.

Since taking office, instead of helping the economy, Obama has purposely escalated the economic crisis by plunging the country into unprecedented debt. He has a number of programs that are designed to go into effect in January 2013, just in time for his second term of office. The economic burden and increased taxes on everyone will be enough to cause the final economic collapse of the country. As soon as that happens, Obama declares Martial Law and assumes dictatorial control of the nation.

The Department of Justice has already been subverting federal laws to strip us of a number of freedoms. The Supreme Court and many of the other federal courts have been seeded with socialistic liberal judges that will rule in Obama’s favor on virtually anything, thus ending constitutional rule and law.

He’s already changing the face of America’s military. Allowing homosexuals to openly serve along with changing the retirement program is causing many conservative military leaders to resign commissions and leave the military. Some Pentagon officials are also noting that an increase in the enlistment of radical Muslims into the US military where they get all the training they need on weapons and defense systems. We have no idea how many of them there are in the armed forces or in what positions they may hold.

Obama has been wielding executive powers this past year as if he were already a dictator. When Congress is not doing his bidding, he simply bypasses them and used an executive order to accomplish it anyway. This has set the stage for his disbandment of Congress. He would not be the first world leader to take control of a nation and disband the legislative branch of government.

He has been effectively using the media to anesthetize the public to the dangers he poses. Like a patient being prepped for surgery, people are numb to the changes and won’t have a clue what took place until they wake up in recovery and realize that free America has been removed and replaced with a regime that may parallel those of Stalin, Lenin, Mussolini, Hitler, Chavez and Castro.

For the sake of our children and grandchildren, I earnestly pray that we are spared from what seems a certain future and that Obama is overwhelmingly defeated in 2012. Otherwise, heaven help us.

Birth Control Costs

I have a friend who sent me her comments concerning testimony of a woman law student before a Congressional Committee concerning taxpayer financial support for birth control. Rush Limbaugh has also commented on this during one of his radio broadcasts. Read the comments of my friend at the bottom and then read my comments at the top.

 

    I checked the Internet for price of high quality condoms. $19.52 for a 24-pack. Let's say $1 each. To use up $2000 worth of condoms in a year, Ms. Fluke would need to have coitus more than 5 times per day each day for the year.

    Prices on birth control pills vary all over the lot. Most quotes are on a monthly basis. They range from $9 to $84 per month. On an annual basis, that's $108 to $1008. Notice that it's a far cry from $2000.

    An intrauterine device costs $175-$400, which includes the initial doctor visit, the device, and a 3-month doctor follow-up. It has a 5-year life. Note that cost is a lot less than $2000.

    If Ms. Fluke really wants to cut her birth control costs, she can buy one 24-pack of condoms for about $24. She can use 2/month by washing and drying the condom after each coitus. Fifteen days on each condom will not damage it, but she can start a new one after the 15-day period to be safe. In that way, she can have birth control for $24 per year, not $2000.

    It seems to me that if law student Ms. Fluke can't figure these things out for herself, our society is already in deep trouble.

Subject: I have a question
The news showed a Georgetown law student who thinks we need to buy her $2000 worth of contraceptive pills each year, per Obama's new Free Pill Law.

I think those pills have affected her brain.(no worse than Global Warming and CO2) and boy what a lawyer she will make.
I had just recieved a Natural Health Letter in which it suggested men sould not drink tap water because our water systems cannot clean up estrogen from tap water and it is getting more and more contaminated from the chemicals we consume and excrete.  It is connected to an increase in Prostate cancer.  At the same time I read (in C&E News)about the Garter snakes.  Male snakes flock a female in heat.  When the same substances the female produces was introduces into a male snake other males flocked to him.  It is possible our estrogen contaminated water can explain the increase in homosexuals too, they can't tell the difference and this must be somewhat mental too.  Free contraceptives will increase the hormones in our water supply.    I think Obama needs a Biology and Chemistry lesson.  If he is the Environmentalist he claims to be, raising gas prices etc, because of CO2, he sould investigate his free Contraceptive Pill Law and withdraw it.
Am I loosing it?
