Yep, were getting it dry from both sides. If we don't get fresh blood in DC soon, were all done for.

wasn't there a document somewhere that was drafted after a war long ago that had some language in there prohibiting the governing nation's army from doing this to their own people. My history is a little rusty.

[willy]

it is called the Posse Comitatus Act - it stated bluntly that the federal government can not use federal troops on U.S soil against its citizens.
It also required the federal government to use local law enforcement to enforce arrests and seizures, to notify them ahead of time and have them present.
Only one state has forced the feds to abide by that law ans that is Michigan.
The other states have let that slip by and not argued the point. That is because they are run by a bunch of Statist"s too.
I am not sure if Michigan is still enforcing it. It use to be that in order for the feds to come knocking they had to produce the Warrant to the County Sheriff and he decided whether to be present or not.
We as Citizens are being DOWN GRADED to bystander status by this federal government.
They tell us, and the states, what we will eat, what medicines we are allowed to take, soon, what insurance we will have to buy, what fish we can catch, where we can drive, what kind of vehicle we can have, how much of their money we will be allowed to keep out of our paychecks, who will be the winners and losers in our economy, what are banks will do, who they must lend to, how much salt is allowed in our food, what type of firearms you can purchase, how many, they have colluded with the universities to inflate the costs of our educations for our kids and they have given power to unions that represent approx 7% of our population.
They enforce only those federal laws which they deem worthy and ignore others, such as immigration and defense of marriage.
They were bad under Bush and Clinton, but under this Low Life and Chief Socialist all these things and hundreds more have been taken to an all time Orwellian high.
He must be thrown out Nov 2012 or once he becomes an second (and last) term POTUS he will have no reason to even mildly disguise his true intentions.
And while your at it throw out anyone who has not got
"Tea Party Endorsed" by their names as they are the only ones standing up to this onslaught and demanded fiscal and constitutional accountability in our government.
I don't care if he or she is not a fancy speaker or has funny hair or talks like they come from the streets, has no kids or fifteen kids, been married forty times or has not attended church in forty years or fly's to the Vatican once a week to kiss the Pope's big toe.
Elect a Constitutional Defender, a Fiscal Conservative, and Citizen respected by the Tea Party.

I agree he needs to go, but we need to also open our eyes and realize the R or D next to there title no longer means anything. ALL of them can be corrupt, and I think most any of them who have been there for any amount time are corrupt despite what they say they stand for. I know I'm in the minority, but the only canidate I've seen in awhile that seems to be true to his word has been Ron Paul, but to many won't take him seriously. It seems like all of the R canidates are just as bad as our current commander and thief. The whole lot of em needs to be thrown out and we need to start over with fresh blood and term limits for all. I also say we start doing progress reports on them to see who actually does what they promised to do, and who hasn't. Give us the option to boot em if they flip flop so as to keep people in there to do what the "people" want, not what they elitists want.

At least it will keep America safe from the terraists. Ya'll are just unpatriotic.

Ferm...you are not at all "by yourself"...when you said "the R or D next to their title no longer means anything" I had to jump up and SHOUT!!...we have no gov't ...we have no representation as long as our lawmakers are on the take...Willy seems to think if we run a TPer up to the White House, everything's gonna be alright...but it's like I told him recently...bickering over party politics right now is like having a fleet of 18 wheelers coming down the interstate and standing in the middle lane arguing over what color the center lines oughtta be...WHO is in office doesn't matter as long as ALL are dangling from the purse strings of big money, special interests and corporations...your vote means nothing as long as our politicians are selling theirs...

Glad to read your post, Ferm!!...

I think our PUBLIC SERVANTS should wear uniforms like nascar drivers showing who their sponsors are. The more money from a big corporation or industry the bigger the logo. Then we'd at least know who they're really looking for. I liked the tea party until Sarah Palin started sponging off them, hell, I used to like Sarah Palin. The more I study the way things really are though I've realized they're both controlled opposition working for the neocon republicans. On the other side the OWS movement is the same way being run by the folks pushing socialism/communism. None of these people are working with the benefits of regular middle class folks in mind. Eventually they want a super rich elite to own everything and the rest of us to be chattel working to serve their interests.

Hell, it's just about like that already.

Things will get worse before they get worse.

For the RP folks.
