Sen. Baldwin: 1st Amendment Doesn’t Apply to Individuals
Media Trackers ^ | 07-06-2015 | Brian Sikma

Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) says the 1st Amendment’s religious liberty protections don’t apply to individuals. On MSNBC last week, Wisconsin’s junior Senator claimed that the Constitution’s protection of the free exercise of religion extends only to religious institutions, and that individual’s do not have a right to the free exercise of their own religion.

Impeachment proceedings and/or a recall election should be started immediately. I’m serious, these people are dangerous for our future.

That’s as absurd as “an exchange established by the state” meaning “an exchanged established by the state or by anyone else”. I imagine this fruitcake will make it to the Supreme Court if Hillary wins.

Fortunately, the First and Second Amendments codify rights granted by God, but we have those rights whether or not our government chooses to protect them.

> For a U.S. Senator to say such a stupid thing is scary. If she really is an attorney, she should be disbarred. She needs to be censured by the Senate.

That’ll happen when Guam tips over.

Did we really think that the left would be satisfied with their recent wins in the Supreme Court? The Progressive position du jour depend solely on what facet of their agenda they wish to advance today, and then tomorrow, and then the next day ad infinitum. Well, here they go again!!!

The most polite thing I can say about Tammy Balwin is that if she studies very hard, she can work her way up to being an imbecile.

Let’s be fair here. Unlike Obama and Hillary we see Baldwin actually trying to explain her position, which gets her into trouble. If she simply stayed on the officially issued talking points there would not have been an issue.

Her mistake is trying to make sense of the official Democrat talking points. That is impossible and only the stupid attempt it.

“Hold my beer while I explain the 1st Amendment”.

But...but....but....Karl Rove and the GOP Establishment said we needed “candidates who can win” such as Thompson instead of conservative nominees. He was their “candidate who can win” for this race.

NO!. Don’t keep her AWAY FROM SHARP INSTRUMENTS AND MATCHES.

Encourage her to play with them. Send instruction books. Videos. Anything that could help send her to the happy hunting ground in Moscow or Peking.

Smells like a butt pull interpretation commonly done by a demoncrap. Typical of many demoncrap politicians, and many of the republiCAN’T rino’s.

So idiot if the First Amendment freedom of religion doesn’t apply to individuals does this mean that the government can tell you as an individual what you can and cannot believe?

Most likely this Obama talking, sending up a trial balloon. You may hear the same meme from the Justice Dept.

2016 I have the feeling that it is going be a long haul until the next election.
