Problem is most just give lip service to the founding fathers and what they wrote and stood for.

Agreed.

Many speak of 'erosion of our rights'. I submit the correct description - 'a challenge to our rights'.

I don't recall the Germans in prewar Germany having an enumerated Bill of Rights.

Our form of government allows for a challenge to our Rights, with grave consequences resulting.

To not defend our God given Rights is to abandon them in entirety. Obama can not take our rights away, he can only challenge them. It is up to We the People to set him straight.

I don't recall the Germans in prewar Germany having an enumerated Bill of Rights.

Under the Constitution of the Wiemar Republic, they did. And those were mostly based on rights provided for in the earlier Constitution of 1848.

They had most of the same rights, in slightly different form, as guaranteed by our own Bill of Rights.

Except the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
