Founders Quote Daily from Patriot Post

"Every man who loves peace, every man who loves his country, every man who loves liberty ought to have it ever before his eyes that he may cherish in his heart a due attachment to the Union of America and be able to set a due value on the means of preserving it." --James Madison, Federalist No. 41

Thoughts on Liberty 101

That my blog partner couldn't find the time to attend.

....amidst the disparagement of grassroots efforts to push back on healthcare reform as currently envisioned in Congress, the former-community-organizer himself, President Obama, has tried to gin up grassroots workers who will pressure lawmakers into passing a massive healthcare overhaul. Contrast the “labor of love” work of my local compatriots to recent Craigslist advertisements to pay $15 per hour to “volunteers” to work to pass Obama's Healthcare Plan. Quite a difference in commitment, wouldn’t you agree? Real grassroots is “money-poor and people-rich” according to Wikipedia.
Hmmmm.....

I’ve been calling and writing to my representatives for nearly ten years. Yeah, a real time-waster, I know. Until this year, I had never marched in the vicinity of a legislator’s office, but I’ve now done so three times. I still haven’t carried a handmade sign! But I really do admire the creativity of my grassroots colleagues. Individuals around this great land have spoken up to our government leaders and found themselves thrust into the spotlight. So many of them have faced cameras and questions from all types of media and held their own in the debate. I have been enormously impressed by their courage and their passion. I don’t care much about the limelight, but I am going to keep working on the grassroots projects I’ve committed to.

No one has to pay me; it’s a labor of love.

International Treaty Threatens 2nd Amendment

VCDL ACTION ALERT!!!!!!!
The Virginia Citizens Defense League is asking Virginia citizens to contact our Senators regarding an international treaty that could override our laws, and possibly even the constitutional protections, for the right to keep and bear arms. Reloading could become illegal, registration would be implemented, even attaching a sling to a rifle without a government license to do so would be a criminal act! The President is pushing this treaty because of Mexico's inability to control its own criminals.

NOTE: The president is pushing this treaty because he is a socialist and dis-arming America is part of his agenda.

INTER-AMERICAN CONVENTION AGAINST THE ILLICIT MANUFACTURING OF AND TRAFFICKING IN FIREARMS, AMMUNITION, EXPLOSIVES, AND OTHER RELATED MATERIALS.

Of course, we all know that our senators are very concerend about the rights of gun-owners, so I'm certain they'll want to insure that the rights of Americans to keep and bear arms as delineated in the 2nd Amendment is protected.

There is a video here.
