Apparent Muslim Gunman Murders Soldiers at Fort Hood

Now that we know that Maj. Nidal Hassan was at the very least a Muslim sympathizer, the question rings loud and clear:
When will we stop pretending that there is no need to treat Muslims with a cautious amount of suspicion?
How many more Americans will have to die before we stop letting the war-like religion run unchecked on military bases?

How much carnage inside our borders will it take to finally convince Washington that "Houston, we have a problem"?
12 families are suffering the loss of loved ones tonight, while thirty more suffer the emotional and physical pain of this avoidable mass murder.

Our politicians still refuse to admit, for obvious political reasons, that Islam is a grave danger to innocent Americans, and it appears that they are more concerned that they not irritate potential Muslim voters than they are with ensuring that more Muslims previously thought to be harmless can't kill more people.

I know I'll be called a hate-filled warmonger, but I submit that is the murderous religion of Islam that is hate-filled, not the few of us who actually have the courage to tell the truth, and try to call our nation to it's senses before it is too late.

My sympathies lie with the murdered, not with the murderer

Republicans Romp; McDonnell Must Seize the Moment

Yesterday's elections in Virginia and New Jersey clearly were a referendum on Barak Obama's Socialist and Marxist governing policies;

Only a year after winning Virginia as the first Democrat to do so since 1964, and sweeping New Jersey in a landslide, Obama and his Democrat underlings were systematically and thoroughly destroyed by the concern over his own Cap and Trade and Obamacare takeovers of the free enterprise system, and the reputation of McDonnell and Cuccinelli as Reagan conservatives;

McDonnell, and Cuccinelli both were publicly vocal about their respective agendas, and
the Republican ticket did a far better job of appealing to the electorate on issues than the Democrats, and aided by the political climate created by fear of Obama policies, swept away the Democrats in a tide of center-right Virginia voters.

Let there no longer be any doubt that the wave of Obamamania last year was nothing more than just that, and that Virginia's brief flirtation with Democrat control is effectively over for at least the next few years, if the Republican stick to their constitutional guns.

Bob McDonnell has enough political capital now to stand up to the Obama agenda, claim the sovereignty granted to Virginia by the US Constitution when it becomes necessary to do so, and lead this state back to respect for constitutionally limited governing principles.

Whether or not he realizes the opportunity he has is still to be seen, but he is an intelligent man, and I hope he seizes the moment for traditional American values of Faith, Family, Freedom, and Limited Government.

Governor, this is a time for choosing;
We chose you, now we ask you to choose to defend our ever endangered liberty from the tyranny of government.
The sky is the limit for you if you allow the people to be your best friends, and the Constitution your closest advisor

Congratulations, Sir.

Homosexual Republicans Blast Cuccinelli, Praise McDonnell; This Blogger is Loving Cucc!

Below is an article by Amy Gardner reporting on the Log Cabin Republicans love for Bob McDonnell and hatred for Ken Cuccinelli; While it is not my desire to have to rip McDonnell again this close to the election, I cannot let my friend Ken Cuccinelli take arrows from a group of Republicans that really should be Democrats without defending him, and that will require contrasting his position with that of McDonnell;

Feel free to read the article below I have pasted in, and if you are truly conservative you will admire Cuccinelli for the courage it took to say what he does this close to an election, particularly knowing that McDonnell will throw him under the bus for standing up for what he believes, but standing up anyway.

Ken was absolutely correct that homosexuality defies natural law; he also did not say that he would discriminate against them in hiring practices.....only that he would not PLEDGE to pretend that there is no difference between hetero and homo;

Cuccinelli's viewpoint is out there for all to see and know, and it looks like the vast majority of Virginians are going to elect him AG;
If so, that same majority is putting their stamp of approval on Ken's willingness to take arrows from the homosexual leadership for his belief that God created them male and female, and that one leaves one's father and mother and cleaves to one's wife, not ones domestic partner.

What a shame that McDonnell and Bolling do not have Cuccinelli's principled traditional American values, and that they will throw him under the bus for standing up for those values.

It is so refreshing to see an American patriot like Cuccinelli who is not afraid to stand up against the militant homosexual leadership, while so many other Republican leaders are wetting their pants in fear;
Just as the New York Republicans put up a flaming liberal for Congress in NY-23, Bob McDonnell endorsed Danny Smith, a homosexual Republican in NoVa whose main platform plank is calling for the overturning of our Marriage Amendment that Bob claims to support and champion.

As usual, Republican leaders are trying to have it both ways, no pun intended, refusing to take principled, uncompromising positions on traditional issues that most Americans care about more deeply than even the economy.

The lessons of the Reagan era appear to be forgotten and eschewed by Republican leadership, as they actively court and recruit liberals to carry the banner of the Republican party whose platform is antithetical to liberalism.

Normal Americans get this and don't like it; Cuccinelli also understands we are aware that we are losing our nation to liberalism, socialism and Marxism, and that we reject the liberalism currently being spewed forth by the current administration and way too many Republican leaders desperately trying to regain their personal power base;

Cuccinelli views the role of government much the same as it was intended by our Founders, and his ability to win elections in NoVa when most other Republicans have long since died indicates that even in increasingly liberal Northern Virginia people still respect a man who will stand up for traditional American values without apology or equivocation;

Ken Cuccinelli is still unneutered by Republican leadership; Ken Cuccinelli is still a man.

Ken stands for traditional American values of Faith, Family, and Freedom, and therefore I stand with Ken Cuccinelli.

Yesterday, the Log Cabin Republicans praised Republican Bob McDonnell for his "inclusive" statements promising never to discriminate against employees on the basis of sexual orientation.

Today, the group of Republican gay activists slammed McDonnell's ticket-mate, Ken Cuccinelli, for the reverse. Cuccinelli, the Republican nominee for attorney general, was quoted in the Virginian-Pilot newspaper declining to commit to the state's nondiscrimination policy against gays and lesbians.

"My view is that homosexual acts, not homosexuality, but homosexual acts are wrong," Cuccinelli told the newspaper. "They're intrinsically wrong. And I think in a natural law based country it's appropriate to have policies that reflect that. . . They don't comport with natural law. I happen to think that it represents (to put it politely; I need my thesaurus to be polite) behavior that is not healthy to an individual and in aggregate is not healthy to society."

David Lampo, vice president of the Log Cabin Republican Club of Virginia, put out the following statement today:

"That Mr. Cuccinelli would make such incendiary and prejudicial remarks as a candidate for the state's highest legal office is truly frightening, and we call on him to apologize for injecting his personal and hateful opinions into this race," said David Lampo, vice president of the Log Cabin Republican Club of Virginia. "The overwhelming majority of Virginia voters, 90 percent according to Republican pollster Tony Fabrizio, support a policy of employment nondiscrimination for state employees. We hope voters evaluate very carefully a candidate who intends to let his personal beliefs and prejudices guide his decision making as Attorney General."

"Cuccinelli's remarks stand in stark contrast to the inclusive statements of Bob McDonnell, the Republican candidate for Governor," Lampo continued, "Mr. McDonnell has rightfully said the government should not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation, and so we call on Republican leaders and candidates throughout Virginia to repudiate Cuccinelli's hateful remarks and stand with Bob McDonnell on this important issue."

Cuccinelli's opponent, Democrat Steve Shannon, also criticized Cuccinelli for his remarks. Shannon sent a letter to McDonnell urging him to denounce Cuccinelli's remarks, and McDonnell did -- sort of, while also taking a swipe at Shannon for focusing on the issue at all.

"Bob McDonnell's record and position is clear: he does not tolerate discrimination of any kind and he hires and promotes based solely on merit and ability," spokesman Tucker Martin said. "That was his policy as attorney general, and will be his policy as governor. There are only six days left in this critically important race. Bob will spend that time continuing to advance innovative ideas to create new jobs, improve our schools, fix our roads and turn Virginia's economy around. Steve Shannon, as a candidate for statewide office in these tough times, should think about doing the same thing."

Obama Poised to Make Move to Begin Destruction of United States with Climate Change Treaty

White House (Obama) Steps Up Assaults On Hannity, Beck

This story raises my hackles yet again at the brazen assault on the citizens right to express his opinion by this Marxist regime in Washington, DC;
This man and his cronies should not be anywhere the reins of power in this or any other country, and it is high time the American people demand impeachment;

We have the option to send any congressman packing next year who refuses to consider impeaching this unconstitutional president;
American freedom itself is at stake here, and time is critical.

Every American should be furious at this attempt to silence the only major television media outlet that disagrees with Obama at times.
Apparently in Obama's America freedom of the press is good only as long as the press agrees with Obama's plan to enslave us.

But that should be no surprise, coming from a president who hates the Constitution, and views it as a meaningless impediment to his schemes.

Stand up and fight for your freedom, America!!

Rush Limbaugh's Money Not Good Enough; NFL Turns Into Political Organization

Now that Rush has been officially barred from NFL ownership, I have a few comments to make about the sorry state of the NFL today;

All the flap about Rush' "controversial" comments is manufactured by media and sports figures for the purpose of embarrassing and depressing conservative involvement in public endeavors outside of the political arena;

The comment in question was when Rush said on the set of ESPN that the media was desirous of a black quarterback succeeding, and hence they overrated Donovan McNabb;

While I disagree with Rush that McNabb is overrated, he is absolutely correct about the desire of the sports media to see a black quarterback succeed so they can fulfill some need for reparation in their twisted manner of thought;

Rush never said anything personally negative about McNabb, and did not say that his race had anything do with his physical ability; in fact, his point had nothing to do with McNabb per se';
It had to do with the media, not McNabb.

As usual, the media, certain players, and the "Justice Brothers" (Jackson and Sharpton, two of the worst racists of all time), took the opportunity to get him removed from ESPN, and to lie about his comments and smear his reputation with their revised version of his original statement about McNabb and the media;

I am sick and tired of racism being treated as a one-way street, and I refuse to buy into the false conventional wisdom of racists that says conservatives are racist for telling the truth regardless of its popularity or lack thereof, but certain liberal blacks can say any horrible things they want about white people and that is perfectly acceptable and treated as intelligent thought.

Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are two of the most vicious and vile racists of all time, and to hear them preaching about Rush is sickening and laughable;
These two racists-of-the-cloth have made millions of dollars causing and patronizing racial strife, and only are successful when they cause blacks to hate whites and vice-versa.

I don't hear them condemning Ray Lewis for hiring someone to murder his girlfriend, or the NFL for doing nothing about it; I don't hear them condemning Mike Vick for his animal cruelty or the NFL for doing little about it........or Dante' Stallworth for getting drunk and murdering a man....or Steve McNair for cheating on his wife and girlfriend with yet another woman......or Pacman Jones for a lifetime of being on the wrong side of the law.....the list goes on and on

Nor do I hear the NFL refusing to allow lawbreakers such as these and many others to participate in NFL activities;
No, its Rush who is racist for telling the truth with which Tom Jackson and Michael Irvin agreed publicly until someone got to them to straighten them out and get them thinking straight....I hardly think they have a problem with black people.

The NFL has sold out to politics, and when a conservative's money is no longer any good to them then neither is a conservative's TV ratings.
As such, I can only assume that if they don't want Rush, they don't want me and neither do their advertisers.

From now on, until they reverse their wanton assassination of Rush' reputation, I will no longer be watching games, looking online, or buying anything from their advertisers.

This nation belongs to us, not to Jackson, Sharpton, or any other racial hucksters out there.
While I support the right of the NFL to decide who can and cannot own teams, I also support our right to let them know they are not good enough for us anymore.
They need us, not the other way around.

I will not stand by and allow them ignore reality and act as if it is no big deal to me, because it is.
Rush is a gentleman, who tells the truth about racists and racism and is therefore is under assault for exposing them for who they are.

I don't see much racism left in our nation among real people who live outside elitism;
I see it mostly among media and Democrats, who see everyone as some kind of category rather than as an American.

It is these race-baiting professionals who make a habit of racism, not rank and file blacks or whites.

Go Rush......buy a team yourself, and I will purchase stock.

Senator Robert Hurt Announces Congressional Run; Wrong Choice for 5th District Republicans

Now that it is official, I want to announce my objection to Senator Hurt as our nominee for this seat;

I have done extensive research into his voting record while in the Virginia House and Senate, and have concluded that "conservative" to him really means "march in lockstep" with Republican power brokers regardless of the commitment or lack thereof to conservative values.


Conservatives have been shoved to the side within the official framework of the Republican Party of Virginia for years, and Hurt's voting record shows an oft-moderate follower, not a "proven conservative leader" as he says.


Read his questionable record below in several previous posts

Robert Hurt Not the Conservative He may Appear to Be- Part 5.......Domestic Partner Benefits

SB 945 will , in effect, make it legal and mandate for insurance providers and employers in Virginia to extend certain insurance coverages to the "domestic partners" of any given employee, in violation of Virginia's Constitution.

In a state where we just passed a Marriage Amendment to our Constitution to protect traditional marriage from the attacks of the militant homosexual lobby, we now have some Republicans crossing the aisle to vote with their socialist Democrat counterparts to again assault one of humanity's greatest and longest held institutions from God;

Naturally, the GA tried to hide the ramifications of this bill in nuance and platitudes, but if one is looking, it is not hard to extract the fly from the ointment; here is the damning portion of the text of SB 945;

B, may be extended to insure the spouse and any child who is under the age of nineteen years or who is a dependent and a full-time student under twenty-five years of age, or any class of spouses and dependent children, of each insured group member who so elects.

ANY CLASS OF SPOUSES.........
What exactly is a "class of spouses"??
You guessed it...............one's "domestic partner".

Last I checked no one is trying to have an animal, plant, man-made creation, or otherwise classified as a "class of spouse".

This is yet another attempt to encroach upon the defining lines of traditional marriage by certain lobbies who have so far been defeated by Virginia's native sons and daughters at the polling place.
Senator Hurt again shows, by voting for this bill, what appears to be either a lack of principle or a dereliction of duty to his Oath of Office, by being lax in his research of the consequences of his votes.

One might ask how this vote reflects a violation of his Oath.............let me explain;
Virginia's Constitution now defines marriage as a union between one man and one woman, as does history, tradition, the Bible, and logic and common sense, and the vast majority of Virginians who passed it into law.

Since an elected official takes an oath to uphold the Constitution, how can Senator Hurt vote for a bill that clearly violates the Virginia Constitution by creating a "class of spouses", in direct opposition to the guidelines of the Constitution which defines spouses as a man and a woman?

The Constitution of Virginia leaves no room for the GA to re-define marriage by adding classes of spouse.
According to Virginia's Constitution, there are no classes of spouse, only a man and a woman.

No, Senator, you are on the wrong side of the Constitution again, only this time it is even more important and potentially destructive than your vote for unconstitutional taxation without representation in HB 3202.

All this begs yet another question regarding limited government;
How is it any of the business of government to legislate who is or is not covered by private insurers in a private enterprise?

What will be next?
Sprint will be forced to provide cell phones to those who are likely to refuse to pay their bill?
That's not so far fetched, if one only recalls the genesis of the housing market crash from two years ago;

That began in the seventies under the leadership of the National Hemorrhoid, as Rush calls Carter, and was exacerbated in the nineties under the National Hound-dog, as they FORCED banks to extend home loans to people that had already proven to the free market that they were a high "risk" of refusing to repay the loans.

In an era of Barak Obama, anything is possible, and Republicans should be leading the charge to reduce government to it's constitutionally mandated size and scope, not assisting the Democrats in it's further explosion is size and scope.

Senator Hurt's voting record is a far more accurate indicator of how he would govern as a congressman than is his rhetoric, or the rhetoric or endorsement of any fellow legislators who may care to endorse his record.

If 5th district Republicans had no other choice than Hurt, I could perhaps see taking the pragmatic approach to defeating Tom Perriello;

But we have real conservatives in the race;
Why settle for less in a tremendous opportunity to defeat one of the most vulnerable Democrats in the country?

We need movement conservative leadership to bring us back from the brink of national collapse, not more of the same Republican leadership that assisted the Democrats, or at the very least stood by and watched as liberals destroyed the very freedom that countless thousands have died for over the last 250 years.

Robert Hurt Not So Conservative- Part 4

Again, I want to stress that my interest in Senator Hurt's record has to do with how it impacts the Constitution and the accompanying conservative movement, not anything personal about the Senator.

Now..........
A couple of years ago the Republican-controlled VA House of Delegates passed a bill (HB3202) that established Regional Transportation Authorities for the purpose of collecting taxes ostensibly for fixing the roads in Northern Virginia (NoVa).

These UNELECTED bureaucrats were granted the power by the General Assembly to raise taxes without oversight by the GA.
Those of you who revere the Constitution will recognize this as taxation without representation.
Unelected bodies with the power to levy taxes on you and me!

This accomplished a twofold purpose;
First, it allowed the Republican majority to raise taxes for the purpose of fixing roads without having to actually vote for a tax increase, and then take the credit for fixing the roads "without raising taxes".
Secondarily, it protected the elected officials from the wrath of angry voters whose taxes would be raised in order to do so.

Now raising taxes is ALWAYS a problem for me.
But a far greater problem for me is taxation without representation, which HB 3202 undeniably did.
When this anti-American legislation was challenged by Bob Marshall and Pat McSweeney, even the Virginia Supreme Court agreed in a 7-0 decision that it WAS taxation without representation, and they overturned it.
This all happened under Republican control of the VA House and Robert Hurt voted for this bill.

Between this vote and his vote for the largest tax increase in Virginia's history, a disturbing pattern is becoming clear in his record.

Folks, we fought a war partially over taxation without representation 250 years ago, and now here is the "conservative" republican party hatching a plot to do exactly that, and then dare to tell us that they are for lower taxes??

Once again, if our party cannot do better than this, how can we possibly present any kind of a contrast to Perriello?

I also hope the 5th District Committee will have the courage to stand up for the people they represent and resist the powers that be to vote for a convention, so Democrats will find it far more difficult to infect our nomination with their liberal poison in a primary.

The Committee should be offended if Washington surrogates attempt to usurp their authority in the selection for the method of nomination, if indeed that becomes a reality as it generally does in this type of situation.

It is about time We the People take back the responsibility for recruiting our own leaders rather than ceding control of our political future to bureaucrats in Washington.

Combined with his voting record, and reported support from some bureaucrats in the Washington establishment Senator Hurt looks less and less like the right man to challenge Perriello.

Robert Hurt Not So Conservative- Part 3

Today we examine Senator Hurt's vote for HB 2035, an all-out assault on parental rights.
This pet project of Bill Bolling's could and should get Robert in a little trouble with proponents of limited government.

Again, I am certain Senator Hurt had nothing malevolent in his heart and mind as he voted for this piece of legislation.
Regardless, we must be able to trust our Republican legislators to properly vet legislation they consider before voting on it.
Men and ladies who campaign as government watchdogs must find it incumbent upon themselves to take the role seriously.
If, as I suspect is true, Robert simply did not read and/or understand this legislation before voting for it, there even still is no excuse for such a vote.

Let's talk about 2035 for a minute.
Just a couple years ago, Merck and Glaxo developed a vaccine for the Human Papilloma Virus, a cause of cervical cancer.
Sounds good.........until one understands that according to many medical doctors, including Dr. Charlotte Haug, MD, PhD, MSc, there is no reason to believe that this vaccine has even been properly proven to work in the women of the youngest ages (12) for which it has ostensibly been marketed.
You can read Dr. Haug's opinion here
She really lays out the case against this whole scheme to enrich pharmaceutical makers and politicians, though she does not case it as such.

I'll leave the proof of the medical unnecessity of this drug to Dr. Haug; I wish to discuss the constitutional and parental rights upon which this bill royally tramples.

How many of us believe it is the place or power of government to force upon twelve year old girls a vaccine for a non-epidemic disease, with or without the permission of her parents?
But that is exactly what Senator Hurt voted for when he voted for HB 2035.

Read this summary of HB 2035 as passed by the House of Delegates;

Required vaccinations; adds human papillomavirus vaccine. Requires females to receive three properly spaced doses of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine. The first dose shall be administered before the child enters the sixth grade.

To Ken Cuccinelli's credit, he forced Tim Kaine to add a parental opt-out to this bill, but regardless, it should never have made it out of a Republican controlled committee, much less pass a Republican controlled House.

The idea that our elected officials think they have the right under their constitutional power to force a vaccine for a non-epidemic disease which can ONLY be contracted by having sexual relations, is worse than offensive;
It is an all-out assault on the American principles of parental rights and personal freedom.

Nowhere does the Constitution give political authorities the power to tell us what health choices we must make, ( abortion is NOT a health choice) or worse, to make for our own daughters.

To think that Senator Hurt's action by his vote gives the impression, correct or not, that he views his role in the oversight of my daughter's health and sexual behavior to be paramount to mine, and that his vote assumes sexual promiscuity on the part of my daughter, and that he has the right to make health decisions for her whether or not I sign off on it, is mind-boggling!

How have we, in the Unites States of America gotten to the point where Republicans are actually taking it upon themselves to patron, champion, and vote for legislation like this?

How can men like Bill Bolling, whose National Lieutenant Governors Association made this legislation their number1 priority, and Robert Hurt conscience usurping our individual freedom to make it their choice?

Perhaps it has something to do with fact that Mr. Bolling received over three thousand dollars from Merck and Glaxo for his efforts, and Senator Hurt also received money from Glaxo.....
Perhaps their contributions have nothing to do with his support; it really is immaterial to my argument.
Again, it is NOT the motives and heart of the senator I question, simply the outcome of his actions.

Back to the facts of the case;
Merck and Glaxo have financed a worldwide campaign to get this legislation passed in mandatory form all over the world and in all fifty United States;
Only Virginia, of all the U.S., has passed legislation making this vaccination mandatory for school entry.
Money talks, eh?
Perhaps Bolling and Hurt should have more carefully vetted the patron of HB 2035, Phil Hamilton.
He recently found himself in deep legal trouble for using his position in the House of Delegates to get himself a $40,000 a year job.

No politician should be above the laws by which we all abide, and they certainly should not be allowed to overstep the bounds of their constitutional power, though it is happening on a daily basis.
As he begins to look more and more like more of the same, it is all the more reason Senator Hurt should not be the Republican nominee for Congress in the 5th district.

How can he call Perriello into account for supporting the ObamaCare bill which has it's own HPV provision in it, when Hurt has already beat him to it here in Virginia?

Just as with Cap and Tax, Senator Hurt has voluntarily given away any hope of credibility with which to oppose the forced HPV vaccination agenda of Tom Perriello and Barak Obama
