Faithfully He Brings True Justice..

Monday of Holy Week 2010, starts out with this prolific scripture…………………………………

Isaiah 42:1-7
Here is my servant whom I uphold,
my chosen one in whom my soul delights.
I have endowed him with my spirit
that he may bring true justice to the nations.

He does not cry out or shout aloud,
or make his voice heard in the streets.
He does not break the crushed reed,
nor quench the wavering flame.

Faithfully he brings true justice;
he will neither waver, nor be crushed
until true justice is established on earth,
for the islands are awaiting his law.

Thus says God, the Lord,
he who created the heavens and spread them out,
who gave shape to the earth and what comes from it,
who gave breath to its people
and life to the creatures that move in it:

‘I, the Lord, have called you to serve the cause of right;
I have taken you by the hand and formed you;
I have appointed you as covenant of the people and light of the nations,

‘to open the eyes of the blind,
to free captives from prison,
and those who live in darkness from the dungeon.’

We have witnessed the “main stream media’s” accounts of things that have come to pass with the passing of the Health-Care reform bill. I share Lady Libertas’ Inspiration for a Sunday. The main stream media would like for you to think that it is those of us involved in the Tea Party movement that are the ones being indignant, disrespectful. We are not, as mentioned in the earlier scripture; we are being “freed from our captives,” our very own government. The one we placed so much trust in to do what is in our best interest. But yet, they have failed us miserably. They have ignored us, berated us, and have placed the chains of bondage on us once again. I pray for deliverance, I pray for peace, I pray for justice in the name of our Lord!
Kudos for secularstupiddd and for the great work in capturing the truth on film….A huge H/T to Lady Libertas and to Secularstupiddd



Rasmussen’s latest assessment regarding the health-care plan states…..

One week after the House of Representatives passed the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats, 54% of the nation’s likely voters still favor repealing the new law. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 42% oppose repeal.

It is not that we don’t want to help our fellow-man with appropriate health care, but the bill as it is written goes way and above what we feel is appropriate. We’ve done preventative care, we will continue, this bill only adds to the rising cost of not only health-care but to the taxation without representation that we’ve witnessed thus far. My prayers are with a nation that is divided, a prayer for unity or if we fail, we will surely fall……

For The American Patriots: We Will Overcome..

“First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win. “ Ghandi

The American people have been ignored by their representatives, their senators as we’ve attended marches upon Washington, DC, attended town-hall meetings, jammed phone lines with calls, worn out the fax machines as we voiced our opposition to the health-care reform that was recently passed. But, yet we were ignored…
They have ridiculed us with their lame attempts by calling us “tea bagger, right-winged nuts.” This administration has stopped of nothing short of bribery, with their promises to help those who were persuaded to cast a “yes” vote on this most troubling piece of legislation. Obama stood before the American people and called out those with whom he thinks is throwing stumbling blocks before him, Congressman John Boehner, Senator Mitch McConnell and even Karl Rove….Many of the Attorney Generals have filed suit against this legislation stating it is unconstitutional and goes against the 10th amendment which clearly states……………………………………

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

We will win, we will over come. November is only eight months away. We have the majority in this one,the majority being the ones opposed to this form of tyranny. We can win because it is within our genetic make-up passed on from generations past to fight for the rights of this country. To protect its foundation and preserve the constitution as it was intended. Again I refer to Lincoln’s message…….

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

Many of us heard this song as children back in the sixties, one that remains true today..the message is clear, it is still relevant..for as Ghandi said, “we will win.” We will overcome…

Obama’s Recipe For Disaster: Health-Care

I received this in my in-box via my email and felt compelled to share it with my readers. It is a stunning review of a Constitutional lawyers conclusion on Obama’s health-care bill that was recently signed……..

A Constitutional lawyer has read the entire proposed health care bill. Read his conclusions and pass this on as you wish. This is stunning!
Please take the time to read this and forward it out as you see fit.

Thanks,

The Truth About the Health Care Bills – Michael Connelly, Ret. Constitutional Attorney

Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act
of 2009.

I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found was far worse than what I had heard, or expected.

To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession.

The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business, and put everyone into a government run system. All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats, and most of them will not be health care professionals.

Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled by the government.

However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface. In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable health care choices.

Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated. If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been destroyed.

The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government. The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration authority in a number of different areas over the lives of the American people, and the businesses they own.

The irony is that the Congress doesn’t have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with! I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate health care.

This legislation also provides for access, by the appointees of the Obama administration, of all of your personal healthcare information in direct violation of the specific provisions of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution , your personal financial information, and the information of your employer, physician, and hospital. All of this is a protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures. You can also forget about the right to privacy. That will have been legislated into oblivion regardless of what the 3rd and 4th Amendments may provide.

If you decide not to have healthcare insurance, or if you have private insurance that is not deemed acceptable to the Health Choices Administrator appointed by Obama, there will be a tax imposed on you. It is called a tax instead of a fine because of the intent to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. However, that doesn’t work because since there is nothing in the law that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax, it is definitely depriving someone of property without the due process of law.

So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hate so much, out the original ten in the Bill of Rights, that are effectively nullified by this law. It doesn’t stop there though. The 9th Amendment that provides: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

The 10th Amendment states: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are preserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Under the provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork neither the people nor the states are going to have any rights or powers at all in many areas that once were theirs to control.

I could write many more pages about this legislation, but I think you get the idea. This is not about health care; it is about seizing power and limiting rights. Article 6 of the Constitution requires the members of both houses of Congress to “be bound by oath or affirmation to support the Constitution.” If I was a member of Congress I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything like it, without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or affirmation. If I voted for it anyway, I would hope the American people would hold me accountable.

For those who might doubt the nature of this threat, I suggest they consult the source, the US Constitution, and Bill of Rights. There you can see exactly what we are about to have taken from us.

An Attack From Within: March 21, 2010

In many ways March 21, 2010 can be a day that could be compared with September 11, 2001. How you might ask? On September 11th, we were attacked by an outside force but on March 21st, we were attacked within, by our very own government. A government that refused to listen to the will of the people. They single handily passed a reform that the “majority of the people” did not want, with no regard to the ramifications that could have a lasting effect not only for us in the here and now but for generations to come. It was appalling to hear Speaker Nancy Pelosi make this claim! We need to pass a bill that hasn’t been read? The deals that were made behind closed doors in secret do nothing to promote bi-partisanship in our current form of government. It is an insult to the American people to even suggest that they have our best interest at heart. They have an agenda, and that is to change the very foundation of our country. Al Sharpton words may very well come back to haunt him but in reality they now feel a sense of being the “all-powerful” and claims such as these should not go unnoticed. Ohio should be proud of their conservative son, Congressman John Boehner delivered a powerful passionate message to this administration, one that will live no doubt into infamy………………………………………….

The time is now, to remind this speaker that its time to remember the dignity of the American people ……Stand Strong, Stand together, United we stand, Divided we fall…..

Woman Without A Candidate In Kentucky

 Political campaigns have always been about those who can raise the most money, who can rally the most supporters, who has the ability to lead the best offence and or defense. This pretty much describes the US senate race here in Kentucky. What we don’t have is the one candidate that is willing to represent the will of the people, that candidate is no longer in the race. Why, you might ask? He didn’t have a high-profile father in politics nor did he have the “big boys” in Washington prepping him for the campaign.
Last April 15, 2009 I attended a tea party held in my hometown, it was a brisk cold, rainy day but a large group gathered to hear about how we as a group could join together and take our country back from the tyranny we see now in Washington. We had a message to send to the occupants of DC regardless of party affiliations. We wanted better representation without taxation. We wanted a smaller government with less intrusion into our personal lives. The Tea Party movement has grown by leaps and bounds bringing about many private citizens stepping up to serve their country. Not because of a desire of power or prestige but one of service to the people, to be their voice, to represent them at every cost. I feel that many now in this race as well as many across the country are seeing that the real Tea Party message is being co-opted and people are being misled. To me, and this is my opinion, as it is my blog, the message has been lost with money, power, deceit, lies..all things we are seeing coming from Washington. I now feel like a “woman without a candidate to support.” There is not one that delivers a message that resonates within me to support them.
The issues that are important to me are being muddled by the messengers and often different tunes are being sung, depending on to whom they are singing for. This is not what I expect from someone who I use my constitutional right when voting. I have lost the one who spoke with conviction and passion that truly walked the walk and talked the talk.
As American’s we cannot take the chance of being swayed by those who wave the big bucks in our faces while trying to “reform the republican party.” I think Lincoln said it best when he stated…

America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

We must continue to seek out the person that is willing to be our voice, to be our protector, to serve the will of the people. We should not be “snubbed” by our candidates for are they not seeking to represent us? Women voters are a majority of the electorate, candidates its time you listen to us and time to stop taking our votes for granted.

TIME TO EXIT THE RACE FOR U.S. SENATE

May the Best Man Win

ELKTON —Kentucky GOP Candidate Bill Johnson today issued the following statement regarding his decision to exit the U.S. Senate race.

“Magellan Strategies completed a poll for the campaign on Tuesday evening. The results were not encouraging for a continued run. It is time to gracefully and honorably exit the race for the U.S. Senate.

“I have no regrets. Spending time with men like Bob Heft (50 Star American Flag designer) and Dr. Alan Keyes (Pro-life advocate) has enriched my life. Talking with Kentucky’s Republican congressman during the past few months reassures me that good people are fighting hard for America. I am happy to say that we have some outstanding men and women serving at the state level, many of them have given me words of encouragement. And meeting conservative men and women across the state of Kentucky has renewed my faith that America will again head back to the Constitution.

“Trey and Rand are both good men. I have decided to remain neutral for now and clear of endorsements. Regardless of who wins the primary, I offer my full support to helping that candidate become our next U.S. Senator from Kentucky.

“I will spend the next few months relaxing and enjoying time with my family. I humbly thank all my supporters and volunteers for their efforts. My goal was to be your public servant in Washington but perhaps another opportunity will emerge in the future. I look forward to your continued friendship. Please stay in touch. Best Regards, Bill”

I cannot say how it saddens me to see such a strong passionate man leave this race at this time. With that being said, I truly honor and respect his decisions. I will continue to rally behind him anytime, any where..For me it was his passion, his principles and values that led me to support him and his platform. Like Mr. Johnson, I will refrain from endorsing a candidate in this race. None of them resonates for me the way that Johnson did. Bill, I wish you the best of luck with every endeavor and I feel very blessed to have been part of such a great team.

I would like to add, what a pleasure it was to have worked with some of the most passionate patriots that I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Names are many but if you are reading this, you know who you are~ A Patriotic Nurse

There Is More Than Just Horses Running In Kentucky

There is more than just horses running here in Kentucky! May is not only the month that we enjoy the run for the roses but it is also the month that we will hold our primary for the U.S. senate. As with the derby the clear winner won’t be known until they cross that finish line!
We have three [3] distinct personalities running for the seat to be vacated by retiring Sen. Jim Bunning.
Like horse races we all have our favorites that we want to win, my “horse” is Bill Johnson. He has proven to me to be the true conservative voice in this race. He has the leadership capabilities needed to bring jobs to Kentucky, he has a strong business background overseeing a multi-billion dollar corporation. With that experience I feel it would enable him to be able to bring jobs to the bluegrass. Johnson, is also a decorated 1st Gulf War Vet. Having served our country, his military experience would be beneficial with national security being an important part of our every day life now. He strongly supports the NRA and is firm about our rights to bear arms. He is passionate about the rights of the unborn and strongly supports Federal Personhood Amendment. The 14th amendment clearly states,

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws

Returning to the states to decide the abortion issue would clearly be in violation of amendment, as the unborn is “life” and deserves equal protection. Johnson also stands firm on marriage and family. Johnson’s opponent Dr. Rand Paul,claims to be pro-life but seems to waiver a bit when putting stimulations and suggesting that the “morning after pill,” would be permissible given the circumstance. Paul has gained a lot of following not only here in Kentucky but throughout the country as being the son of Texas Sen. Ron Paul, who has a large following of supporters from Campaign for Liberty.Trying to reform the Republican Party is not my idea of a true conservative. Paul knows his father’s agenda like the back of his hand and has promoted this agenda around the country. He has angered little old ladies and has complained about this or that. What will he do in DC? Now he has even gone as far as to write off the The Metropolitan Republican Women’s Club (of Louisville), an affiliate member of the Kentucky Federation of Republican Women, has, for many months, been organizing a Public Forum for all of the Republican senatorial candidates as a public service to the citizens of Kentucky. Those roses could be starting to slip away!
Our last but not least “horse” in this race is Sec. of State Trey Grayson. He is backed by the elite in DC and is often referred to as being “prepared” to do this job. Is this really what we what in DC, more of the same of what we have now, politicians that are only seeking office as a career as opposed to wanting to serve and represent the people that send them to DC to be our voice but only seek to gain power and prestige. I will say that Grayson’s campaign manager [Nate Hodson] does know some things about polling in March that I find humorous.
So the field is set and the horses are in the starting gate, it is up to the voters of Kentucky to declare a winner and I am putting my money on Johnson and I am hoping that you will too! After all we have more to gain than………..

SURVEY USA POLL RESULTS
Celebrity Name Recognition or May 18th Primary Reality?

ELKTON —Kentucky GOP U.S. Senate Candidate Bill Johnson today issued the following statement regarding the Survey USA poll.

“The methodology used in the Survey USA poll took a sample of Kentucky residents with a telephone number and asked them if they were registered Republicans and likely to vote in the primary. History shows that regardless of the answer, only 1 in 5 will actually cast a vote in the Republican primary. This is a name recognition poll more appropriate to a general election than a Republican primary.

“The Survey USA methodology disclaimer states, ‘There are other possible sources of error in all surveys that may be more serious than sampling error. These include the manner in which specialized populations, such as likely voters, are determined. It is difficult to quantify the errors that may result from these and other factors.’

“What a fraud. Out of the approximately one million registered Republicans, about 200,000 will cast primary votes. When a sample is taken from the 200,000 with a history of primary voting, a much different picture emerges. I remain confident in my campaign’s base of support and continued progress in this primary election.

“As a businessman, I understand it is important to base decisions and actions on proper data. I would have been tossed out of any good business executive’s office with a story and disclaimer like the one presented by Survey USA. To say that the voters of Kentucky are buying Rand Paul when 4 out of 5 of those shoppers have never been to a primary election store is simply crazy.

I will remain in this race primary race until the results on May 18th. The media, pollsters, Washington elite, power brokers, and money machines will not deter my efforts.”

Open Letter To The People Of Kentucky Regarding The US Senate Race

While addressing the Clark County Republican Party Lincoln Day Dinner tonight, Rand Paul’s Campaign Manager, David Adams [above photo], made a stunning revelation. Rand Paul is running a national campaign to be the next US Senator from Kentucky.

MSNBC, CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS, and national print media exposure has been carefully orchestrated to garner national support, influence, money, prestige, and recognition.

We know that 90% of his $2 million has come from outside the Commonwealth.

We know that his “Spring Break in Kentucky” is for training astroturf campaign workers from outside of Kentucky and that he has rental lodging for them to stay in.

We know that Ron Paul’s Campaign for Liberty is coordinating this national effort.

We know that the Republican Party of Kentucky is powerless to stop it.

Should Rand Paul win the US Senate race in Kentucky this year it will be the first time in Kentucky’s history that the rest of the nation elected our Senator.

We certainly won’t be the ones electing him.

How do we know? Well, for example, Rand Paul didn’t bother to send a representative to the Pike County Republican Women’s LDD last night. Why not? Well, for one thing, he’s got this all sewn up of course. I think he’s got hard feelings towards the guest speaker, Congressman Hal Rogers, so he blew off the entire Republican party in the heart of the coal region. Some “Friend of Coal.”

He’s no “Friend of Coal.” He’s no friend of Kentucky, people. Look closely at the fox in our henhouse. He’s buying his way to the General Election when the media will pull out all the stops to shatter him so they can get a another Democrat into the US Senate.

Only 10 weeks left. What’s amazing is I can’t find too many people that say they actually respect the man for personal integrity. Everyone knows the citizens are seeing Ron Paul campaigning behind Rand Paul with Sarah Palin’s misguided endorsement.

I have greater confidence in the people of Kentucky. We must end this outside national interference and meddling in our internal affairs.

Bill Johnson has made it clear from day one [1] that he strongly stands for the true conservative values that mirror that of Ronald Reagan. He has ran a legitimate campaign by merely taking his message to the people of Kentucky that actually are the only ones able to vote in this primary. Given they are registered as either Republican or Democrats, Independents are unable to cast a vote until the general election. Rand Paul has stated his reasons for running as a Republican in this election…

I know that third party candidates can’t win in KY. Although I’m a libertarian at heart, I’ve decided to run as a Republican. Once I win I’ll be able to promote my father’s principles and work towards reforming the Republican party”. ~ Rand Paul, 2009

So I ask the voters of Kentucky do they want someone who is only running to further the cause and platform of their father or do they want someone who is willing to once again answer the call of service not only to Kentuckians but Americans as well. I will take DUTY-HONOR-COUNTRY any day over more of the same of what we have in DC. So Kentuckians if you really want to show the nation that here in Kentucky we are capable of making up our own minds regarding the candidate we choose to vote for then I beseech you to become informed and not let the “main stream media” dictate to you or influence your vote…
