Twelfthers?
It is amazing that during Thanksgiving week, there are still some obsessing publicly over the presidential election earlier this month. A recent article from World Net Daily details how the Electoral College could be prevented from selecting a president. To add to a Tenther’s list of reasons to be thankful, let’s include no longer being [...]
Do the Secessionists Have As Much Courage As the Nullifiers?
By now, anybody who even casually follows the Tenther movement and the liberty movement in general has likely heard about the secession petitions circulating. Yesterday, I had personally gone from only hearing about Louisiana, to hearing my State of New Jersey had one too, to hearing the count was up to twenty States. That could [...]

Religious Nullification – Part I – HHS Mandate
For the better part of a year, I have personally wanted to start a series on the religious history of Nullification, both in America and worldwide, even before the beginning of America and in some cases before the existence of Christianity. The recent showdown over the US Bishops and the Obama administration over the HHS [...]
The American Anti-President and the New Federalism
It is increasingly clear now that the American anti-president simply doesn’t understand that governance is not a world soccer match in which everyone gets a little trophy from their mother; that when he stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Mexican President Felipe Calderon and a bunch of degenerate rock stars in opposition to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, he [...]
What If This Were Bush?
cross-posted from The Beacon It goes without saying that if Bush had presided over a phony end to the Iraq war, expanded the Afghanistan war, extended its reach into Pakistan, solidified the state secrets doctrine and claimed in no uncertain terms the right to assassinate American citizens without due process, the left would be up [...]
Obama’s Dubious Purchase of the Free Market
When people respond to the claim that Obama is not friendly to “business” they normally start with something like… ‘How can you say that? He (Obama) bailed out the banks, the auto makers and the insurance companies!’ If you claim he is anti-small business, they will point to one of the dozens of tax credits [...]

Obama Has Solidified the Bush Police State
On virtually all the major civil liberties issues of the Bush era, the Obama administration has followed its predecessor’s example. Detention without trial has continued. Torturers will not be investigated. Warrantless surveillance of the citizenry goes on uninterrupted. What’s more, by vindicating these policies as a left-liberal Democrat, Obama has solidified them in American political [...]
I’m Disgusted with this President
The executive director of the ACLU, speaking for many on the left and among Americans who generally favor the Democratic Party, began an important talk last week saying, “I’m going to start provocatively … I’m disgusted with this president.” Why? “It’s 18 months and, if not now, when? … Guantanamo is still not closed. Military [...]
You can just Smell the “Change”
Andrew Napolitano, Jacob Hornberger, and columnist Eli Lake discussed the overwhleming similarities between the foreign policy approaches of Bush and Obama. (h/t Matt Hawes)
Nullification is for the Out of Touch Right-Wing
Not really. But how is it the media, the university professors and the activists on the left can’t see this? All they have to do is realize that nullification is not exactly a complicated subject. It is basically a refusal to follow certain laws believed to be unjust or excessive. Basically, we “nullify” such laws [...]
Man who Threatend Pelosi in Jail. Obama remains free.
The AP is reporting that the FBI has arrested a California man for making threatening phone calls to Nancy Pelosi. Several federal officials say the man made dozens of calls to Pelosi’s homes in California and Washington, as well as to her husband’s business office, reciting her home address and saying if she wanted to [...]

The President Assassinates US Citizens?
A provocative piece, as usual, from Glenn Greenwald. Definitely worth looking at… (h/t Lew Rockwell) Here’s an excerpt: Just think about this for a minute. Barack Obama, like George Bush before him, has claimed the authority to order American citizens murdered based solely on the unverified, uncharged, unchecked claim that they are associated with Terrorism [...]
Obama is not lying, but he thinks he is.
All the pundits are blasting Obama for his comments this week declaring similarities between the momentum that brought him the Presidency and the momentum that brought Scott Brown to the Senate. Obama said: “Here’s my assessment of not just the vote in Massachusetts but the mood around the country: The same thing that swept Scott [...]
The C-Span Lie
All you need to do is watch:
Obama Bashing and Bigger Fish to Fry
Can we finally agree that in general, “Obama” isn’t at issue and we could honestly care less who he is or what he supposedly represents, or where he was born for that matter. I’m honestly disgusted and more than tired of the name calling in response to opposition to democratic ideas. What are you people [...]
Obama the Peacemaker?
“War is peace.” Sounds like something from a book I read once. You remember the one, where an entire society gives up their liberty and freedom, coaxed by a central government promising protection and comfort?
Disillusioned Liberals, Progressives…Welcome!
A 10th Amendment Primer for Those Who Lean Left Once upon a time I eagerly tuned in to MSNBC on a nightly basis. I knew that there was something hideously wrong with the direction our country was in and at that time I believed that “if only Bush had not been elected president, none of [...]
Understanding The 10th Amendment
The “winners” write the history, and always in favor of their side of the “argument”. Government’s job is to “control” the people. Control takes power and power comes at a price: the people’s liberty. In a nutshell, government power stands as the enemy of liberty. And when it comes to the war between power and [...]
