Kagan also disqualified by ignorance of Ninth Amendment

Speaking of unalienable rights, the GOP's handling of the Kagan nomination thus far offers new evidence that the Party's current leadership remains obtusely indifferent to the tragic watershed Kagan's nomination represents for the American republic.  In response to a question from Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, she refused to support the fundamental notion that all people have unalienable rights.  With the deceitful pseudo-cleverness now characteristic of those hostile to the principles of the Constitution, she pretended that as a Supreme Court justice she would be obliged to deal only with the rights enumerated in the Constitution. Of course this seemingly astute maneuver simply confirms her incompetent or willful ignorance of the Constitution's provisions.  The ninth amendment clearly states that   "the enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the ...

Report from the road

Since last Wednesday I've been traveling, mainly to attend and speak to a Faith and Liberty conference in Denver, CO over the weekend.  Hence the hiatus in postings. Yesterday I also had the great privilege and satisfaction of meeting Walter Hoye, the inspiring pro-life champion from California, and Bishop Porter one of the stalwart and outspoken Christian leaders of efforts in Colorado to restore respect for the God-given rights family and innocent life. We all participated in a press conference in support of Amendment 62, through which the people of Colorado will have the chance to affirm the truth that human offspring are persons not property. To learn more, visit the Personhood Colorado website.  I would urge not only pro-lifers, but all people who care about our preserving our unalienable rights and the liberty we derive from them, to support this cause in any way you can.  So far, this is the ...

What was Shirley Sherrod’s real offense?

They say that in war truth is the first casualty. If so, the experience of Shirley Sherrod points to the potentially tragic truth about America's present political situation. On Monday night Fox news reported the story of an episode in which, as a USDA official "she appeared to deny a farmer help because he was white…." In fact, the remarks were only part of a seemingly edifying account of how she felt and overcame the impulse of racial resentment so that "working with him helped me to see that it wasn't just a black and white issue." Andrew Breitbart's anti-socialist website Biggovernment.com began the sequence of events that reportedly led a USDA deputy undersecretary to inform Sherrod that "the White House wanted her to resign... They called me twice… the last time they asked me to pull over the side of the road and submit my resignation on ...

Why Obama is America’s most (not post-) racial politician

I just read a piece by Dick Morris, the former high level Bill Clinton operative now accepted as a  politically savvy "conservative" pundit. In "The End of the Post-racial Presidency" he appears to lament the fact the "Obama is letting his supporters strip away his image of a post-racial president by their increasingly racial rhetoric and his support for radical black activists." Then he joins the pack of GOP partisans that has gleefully played up "Attorney General Eric Holder's refusal to prosecute the new Black Panther members so obviously guilty of racial intimidation at the Philadelphia polling places in 2008." After alluding to Obama's pathetic effort to portray as racists people demanding enforcement of U.S. immigration laws, he concludes that Obama "is increasingly taking sides in the old racial debates, reigniting them and lending new fuel to their flames. He is…retreating into the racial cocoon of a supportive ...

U.S. power elite demands rejection of Creator God?

Back in 2008 I went to Des Moines, Iowa to participate in the debate among candidates for the Republican presidential nomination sponsored by the Des Moines Register. During a radio interview I was doing in that context, the interviewer made a remark (while we were chatting off air, as I recall) that came back to me today as I read Professor Angelo Codevilla's eye-opening piece, America's Ruling Class and the Perils of Revolution.  The interviewer bluntly observed that given my commitment to God and liberty, the GOP leadership must look upon me as a traitor to my class. I think there are fewer people today than at the time who would fail to understand what he meant. Thanks to Professor Codevilla's perspicacious piece, there will soon be fewer still. (I realize that 'perspicacious' is one of those polysyllabic words the "dumb 'em down" stylists say we should avoid, but ...

Throw the Dems out- a sequel

For today's article at WorldNetDaily I chose to share with WND's larger audience the piece I posted here on Monday about what I think needs to be the first objective in the November election for voters anxious to preserve constitutional liberty in the United States. In it I say bluntly that the very best outcome would be to vote all the Democrats out. I also make clear that handing the Republicans an overwhelming majority will not by itself guarantee the failure of those who seek to overthrow the U.S. Constitution. It will simply put the GOP on the spot with no excuse for failing unequivocally to reject the socialist coup the Obama faction is determined to carry out. People who insist on believing that the socialists and so-called liberals in the Democrat Party are alone responsible for the threat to American liberty may misunderstand what I have written ...

'Despicable him', aka NASA's fractured fairy tale

DAILY BRIEFS #5 I just saw an AP report that "The White House is contradicting the NASA administrator's claim that...Obama assigned him to reach out to Muslims on science matters....White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Monday that such activities are not among Bolden's assigned tasks.  He said administration officials have spoken with NASA about the matter." Okay.  What are the odds that a sane official would make up such a story?  If Charles Bolden fabricated or imagined such an assignment, a psychiatric evaluation would seem to be in order.  So what's easier to believe, that the NASA Administrator has been taken over by Islamophilic aliens, or that the Obamanauts are ( dare we say it) lying? If they are telling the truth, we should expect to get prompt word of Bolden's resignation;  or at the very least, of his long planned departure for a much needed rest. If they're not telling the truth ...

Would Alan come to speak to your group?

7 comments

I do a lot of traveling and speaking to and on behalf of the people and organizations who care as I do for the future of liberty.  I speak to small groups and large, sometimes helping to raise funds for pro-life organizations, crisis pregnant centers and the like, but also for Christian schools, groups of homeschoolers, and student groups, at high schools and colleges.

I do a fair amount of traveling for political causes as well- to help out candidates and causes who are standing up in the effort to revive our institutions of self-government, beginning with the Constitution, and the godly principles of the Declaration of Independence. 

If you, or someone you know, have an interest in such an engagement, don’t hesitate to get in touch.  For years I’ve been blessed to work with a lady of great faith and goodwill, Carla Michele, who helps me to schedule my time and arranges the details of travel and remuneration.  You can reach her by email at askcarla@msn.com, or by phone at 972-420-8866.

This is my comment to a fox news article on 06-052010
When are Americans going to stand up against this regime? Where is our “leader” who will lead us out of this mess? It is not McCain or Perry. Maybe Alan Keyes or Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana or Gov Jan Brewer? We need REAL AMERICANS who love America. We need someone who will put AMERICANS FIRST. I do not care if they are black, white or purple. We need people in our government like Australia has now. The Australian government is listening to their people, which we all know our gov does not . Remember the health care bill? I will not vote for anyone who voted for that bill. Remember the mexican president talking bad about Arizona? I will not vote for anyone who clapped after the mexican president spoke. Let’s PRAY that there will still be an America left by 2012.

Calm down. There will be an America in 2012. Do you think America is so weak a construct that it cannot last two more years. Please scale back your paranoia.

Only enemies of liberty encourage a free people to take the security of their liberty for granted. The whole weight of human history stands against the success and longevity of a government based on the sovereignty of the people. The US has proven that it can be successful. Whether it proves long lasting (in historical terms, the 234 years it has thus far survived is not long at all) is what the actions of each generation must determine. Snide remarks that in no way address the facts of our present situation, or the destructive assault on the premises of thought and moral understanding that made constitutional government possible, are worse then unhelpful. They are hostile to the vigilance and activism we will need if we our to meet the threat liberty faces in our time.
Better to see the danger now, and deal with it, than wake up to the demise of our liberty after the crisis has been decided against us. Better to be free citizens and wrongly accused of paranoia than repressed subjects, wrongly punished for daring to think we should be free.

I’m a white middle aged American, that is relieved to know there are men in politics like Alan Keyes, fighting the good fight. Fighting for moral and ethical responsibility in politics and in one’s personal life. Alan is not only a hero to the African American population but to all Americans. I would gladly vote for him as President of the United States in the next election. Please come to Arizona and speak. We need you here!

Still have room for somebody that understands the principle of Expanded Capital Ownership Now- ECON 1.0- at our Rally in Washington D.C. in front of the Federal Reserve Bank at noon on April 15, 2010.
I would think with all the Hub-bub about Glenn Beck and Economic Justice that you just might have a few words to say.

Contact CESJ.org or call 703-243-5155
Sorry we are an all volunteer org. – think tank.

Join the peaceful demonstration to Pass Capital Homesteading by 2012.

Indiana, particularly Indianapolis, would be a good place to see if Tea Parties would like to hear Mr. Keyes.
