Rachel Maddow: Indefinite detention?
Imagine that another major terrorist attack occurs in the US, or some national emergency occurs, and the president finds it necessary to take a strong position compromising your rights or undermining the Constitution.

I've attended a private home Tea party and have been to two 912 meetings. At first, I almost ran. I was thinking I ran into ALL repubicans (OH NO). Then, I thought about it and said to myself nah its about ALL partys Dem. and Rep. and I stayed and I chatted with a few people and found out they were nice folks. So I went to another 912 meeting and again ALL Rep., so I thought. I have to wonder; where are the good Dem.? And Independents? In my opinion all our Government stinks. I see 100%…

Ron Paul says
"Something big is happening" and sees cause for hope. Perhaps he has a message for The 9-12 Project of Central PA as well.

This happens to be a story based on firearms but make no mistake - It is being billed as a 10th Amendment issue. It will most likely be one of the next major Supreme Court battles second only to the 2A fights.
The Federal Government will not want to relinquish any power what so ever.

This is a thread post and reply on PAFOA
relating to when/where to carry your firearm (I will attach the link at the bottom if you are interested in the whole thread). It began as a question if folks carried while doing yard work. It has slowly morphed into the question "when do you carry". The poster named Slingslot made the following observation about his/her cell phone:
I may have to rethink my carry times. You guys (and Gals) got me thinking about carrying around the… Continue

Not funny: Barack Obama laughs at Wanda Sykes "joke" about wanting Rush Limbaugh dead
Posted By: Toby Harnden at May 10, 2009 at 17:51:55 [General]
What was Wanda Sykes thinking? Perhaps more to the point, what was President Barack Obama thinking when he laughed and smiled as the comedienne wished Rush Limbaugh dead?
Although the Left is reporting her White House Correspondents' Dinner speech as "taking shots" at…

"License, or the abuse of liberty, may creep into a press which enjoys liberty. Anti-social practices complained of in England and the United States include sensationalism, coloring or distorting the news, propagandizing in the news columns, 'trial' by the newspaper of accused persons, triviality in the news, and 'lying' or falsification, especially in politics."
