" ... It seems some People have forgotten that freedom of speech, religion, thinking, etc., applies to all. ... " Nope. CAIR has not forgotten any of that. CAIR never believed in any of it to begin with, and they continue to ignore it now. Because CAIR does not, and never has, accepted the existence of those Conststutionally guaranteed freedoms, the organization is anti-Constitution, anti-freedom, and anti-American. It has no place in the American landscape, and should be expelled from every location where it exists.

” … The treaty covers battle tanks, armored combat vehicles, large-caliber artillery systems, combat aircraft, attack helicopters, warships, missiles and missile launchers, and small arms and light weapons. … ” That leaves out slingshots and billyclubs, but little else that we might find useful. If anyone says they believe the assurances that the U.N. treaty will not affect the daily lives of Americans, have them look at the sculpture which stands in front of the U.N. building. A revolver with it’s barrel tied in a knot … standing on the soil of a nation which is founded on the right to bear arms … is nothing less than ‘spit in the eye’ of our Constitution.

Don't blame all Republicans for the actions of those four Senators. McCain and Graham are long-time RINOS who have always pushed AMNESTY. Rubio is a Latino newcomer looking for a cause to make him a superstar. And Flake, Arizona's junior Senator, has been sucked into the slipstream of Doddering John. We The People have stopped AMNESTY attempts in the past, and we can do it this time ... as long as everyone gets on board with their letters and emails and phone calls. If you are new at the game, goto numbersusa (dot) com and join up with them. They make it easy to send faxes on all of the immigration subjects to any (or all) of your own representatives.

" ... They allegedly received a complaint from someone at the base who said the picture made “me feel terribly uncomfortable, disheartened and disappointed. ... " Isn't that always the story? "It makes me uncomfortable." Watching someone burn the American flag makes me 'uncomfortable' in the extreme, but the Supreme Court says I must endure it. Suspending kids from school for pointing a finger and saying 'bang' makes me uncomfortable, along with OWS protests, public service unions, and gay parades. If I am expected to 'tough it out' the pansy in the dining hall should grow a pair ... instead of being a gurley-man.

" ... By way of context, I’m a Tea Party member. I helped organize the original Tea Party events in Los Angeles, ... " I don't know how your L.A. group is faring, but many others are suffering from low self esteem and low funding. Finding out that their troubles are not actually self-inflicted - but derive from a program that crippled of fund raising abilities - has breathed new life into TEA Party members. Gathering to display their discontent with the IRS is like a shot in the arm, and acts a catalyst for bringing in new members who now see a reason to become active. Never let a crisis go to waste, they say, and we are going to ride this one till it breaks a leg.

Many gun owners ... a growing percentage of them ... beliee that they must keep guns to resist government tyranny. Piers Morgan has made a lot of money (lately) ridiculing gun owners who share that belief. Recently, reacting to all of these scandals, and especially the IRS problem, Mr. Morgan has publicly opined that maybe this government is showing signs of a tyrannical inclination, after all.

Low-lwvwl people in the IRS may have been DOING the trageting, but I am certain they didn't do that without orders from above. My wife retired from IRS as a GS-12 Revenue Officer ... roughly equal to a Major in the military. To take on a project like the one described, she would first need refief from her existing case load so she could make time for the 'targeting'. Then she would need assurances from above that she would be protected from prosecution for an activity that she was fully aware was illegal. Few low-level types would shed their principals to act so illegally. But those few who might would never do so on their own.

Americans who really liked GW Bush still fought him to a standstill over amnesty. We have not changed our minds on that issue, and the eight in this gang are fools to think that we have. Here is a bill we can accept ... "Comprehensive Immigration Reform" Step 1 ... Deny all public assistance to illegals. Step 2 ... Jail time (not fines) for employers of illegals. Step 3 ... Seal the border. Step 4 ... Wait five years to gauge the effect of 1, 2, & 3.

I have a feeling that if she were to debate Joe Biden (on any subject), an international panel would decree that waterboarding is a kinder form of treatment.

I'd say she is at least qualified to be Vice President ...

" ... One could easily argue Limbaugh has left a bigger footprint on the media landscape in the past two decades than Barbara Walters in her five decades ... " Uhh ... yeah! Walters will be rememberd for teary interviews and not much else.
