YES, SIR, I AM AN AMERICAN AND DAMN PROUD OF IT TOO
My quiet office ^ | 12/08/2004 | Myself

What would you think about starting an organization that will tell all State and Federal elected officials that we are demanding a B+ or better rating to qualify for the list we will all use for our personal voting decisions at every election from now on.

It would be easy to get the news into the newspapers and on television that State and Federal elected officials without a B+ rating will have no chance whatsoever to receive your vote.

I am recommending that we base their grades on three issues.

The socialist idea that American citizens should not be allowed to defend their person and property with firearms is a complete failure as we have seen in England.

Securing our national borders is something that should have been done on 9/12/01.

The United Nations is a blood sucking organization that is corrupt and ineffective.

Issue#1 Support for the 2nd Amendment (Molon Labe)

Issue#2 Support for bringing a rapid halt to the illegal alien invasion from all countries, not just Latin America.
This would of course include a drastic reduction in who can receive the taxpayer supported benefits, of all types! The removal of all who are not citizens or do not have authorization to be on American soil.

Support for a Bill that would halt anchor babies.

Issue#3 Support for removing the United States from the Nations and the removal of the United Nations from our soil.

The empty promises we receive from our legislators are not making AMERICA safer or stronger. Their slanted view of the 2nd Amendment is disgusting. The UN would have been bankrupt long ago if performance was considered.

When I study the performance of our State and Federal Legislators I am ashamed as well they should be, but ironically their standards have dropped so low that they think they are doing a fine job. When I look at their a performance report, I wouldn't hire one of them to work for me.

Legal excuses for their performance on these three issues, they all have, good ratings are quite rare. Let us voters raise the standards of we will accept, not humbly fall in line with what they say we are allowed to have.

I am extremely interested in hearing your ideas on such an idea because I am the father of two wonderful young adult daughters. I want these ladies to have a safe and secure future where will always be proud to say, "YES, SIR, I AM AN AMERICAN AND DAMN PROUD OF IT TOO"



I will never forget September 11th, 2001.

I have thoughts on how to form this organization, but I would also like to talk about adding to your list:

1. elimination of "sustainable development" from the federal state and local government agendas

2. elimination of public/private partnerships which deplete the treasury and are a form of fascism

3. Revocation of Clinton's executive order on environmental justice--people have to show harm by a landowner before they can sue.

I would be an enthusiastic supporter of such an organization. Most Americans feel helpless because their elected officials pay absolutely no attention to the views of their constituents after they get elected, and a tool like this could make some of those officials to quake in their boots in fear of losing their cushy jobs. I think Americans would flock to an organization like this if the word could get out.

"sustainable development" would disappear when the UN is goes, but not until then.

Having someone in office who would ask on the floor, "Does the Constitution permit these giveaways?" would do a lot of good to stop these giveaways.

Cancelling out one EO with another takes 10 miutes if the President feels he has the support to do it.

Now, that I have answered those, do me a favor and ask yourself where are the other Freepers who say they care?

Great idea! Have the government determine truth and punish those who deviate from it...

You'll have to throw out the XIV Amendment for this one.

Agreed. This is why I think we should concentrate on the demand for illegal labor, the borders, the ports, and the process for dealing with aliens we catch. Although I would be willing to amend the 14th amendment to preclude births to illegal aliens, I think it's less important to do that than to stop the demand and the source.

Right now, there's very little stopping companies from demanding lowball, illegal labor. Also, our borders and ports are relatively insecure. Developing and applying the technology to seal them would be possible, but we lack the will. Finally, when we catch illegal aliens we should send them back (humanely) to their country of origin.

By the way, I think it's almost too late for white men to make any comments on this issue that people will hear. It's up to women and non-Anglos like Michelle Malkin to remind the whole country that culture has nothing to do with race, but it's essential to our future.

You are going to need researchers who watch and report the activities of lawmakers. You will need a way to convey this information to the public.

The Liberty Caucus does something like this. Have you seen their website or their emails that report how your representatives are voting?

The current method of polls and making telephone calls to our Congressmen isn't working at all. We are being ignored or don't you realize that?

Because corporations are recognized as persons by this government and are allowed to make political contributions, they are in the drivers seat. The public/private partnerships pushed by the federal government has made a nightmare for individual citizens in that they no longer have value to the government except as biological resources. Public/private partnerships and corporate personhood must be done away in order for Congress to start working for the people again.

Basically what we need is an off shoot of the Republican Party that will REALLY support the Constitution. It is tough and it is slow, but the incoming Senate in MUCH more conservative than the current one and since the House is generally much more conservative than they Sentate (remember all the stupid crap that the Senate has passed like gun control about two days after Columbine), maybe we can finally get some things done in the next two years.

I have been of the internet for a day and didn't see this posted. I have beeen catching up on threads and read the one about the 5 year old child that was killed by an illegal alien who was also a convicted felon.

We need to start impeaching judges who have given these illegal aliens a slap on the wrist for crimes against Americans.
