    11/09/2016 8:30:27 PM PST · by Ravenstar · 31 replies
    I propose that "the movement" of We the people have several theme songs if you will. My picks would be: Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q65KZIqay4E The Gatlin Brother's "Stand Up and Say So"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk_w4fZQXhI Krista Branch's "I am America" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0heL2Czeraw My apologies but I don't know how to embed a link.(I haven't posted in a very long time) Any thoughts, comments

    Wall Street Journal
    Republican actual Delegate Count (Not inflated by propaganda or “Super Delegates” or Republican establishment wishes) After Iowa: Santorum: 14 Romney: 12 Gingrich: 0 Paul: 0 After New Hampshire: Santorum: 14 Romney: 19 Gingrich: 0 Paul: 3 After South Carolina: Santorum: 14 Romney: 21 Gingrich: 23 Paul: 3 After Florida: Santorum: 14 Romney: 71 Gingrich: 23 Paul: 3 After Nevada: Santorum: 16 Romney: 81 Gingrich: 27 Paul: 6 My Count differs from the Wall Street Journal because I take only the actual delegates earned in the contests that have occurred so far. My point in this is if you are counting...

    This is an open letter to the American People, though brief, I hope it serves as a wakeup call. This open letter is meant to awaken all even Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Mark, oh wait Mark Levin is already awake but I wouldn’t mind a critique from him. Everything that is happening is by intent don’t be a shill for the OBrinch The OBrinch that stole America Every Constitutionalist down in Constitutionville loved America. But the OBrinch (Barack Obama) who lived in the White House did NOT! It might be because his ears weren’t screwed on quite right....

    Associated Press | Friday July 29, 2011, 1:47 pm EDT | Charles Babington and Donna Cassata
    “The White House immediately dismissed the new version, with spokesman Jay Carney calling it "moot and irrelevant" and certain to fail in the Senate.” This is a quote from an AP story by the following: Charles Babington and Donna Cassata, Associated Press, On Friday July 29, 2011, 1:47 pm EDT It is about the changes to the “Boehner plan” that are causing the Tea Party conservatives to agree to vote for it. This version will only increase a second time if the congress sends a Balance Budget Amendment to the States. So the White House is arrogant enough to believe...

    This is time for action. Two things need to be done from what I can see. First call your representative and demand to talk to the legislative aid and make sure you have your copy of the Constitution in your hand for quick reference. Ask what they are going to do to over turn this. Yes Congress does have that power especially when the ruling is obviously contrary to the constititution. The land must be taken for public use with just compensation not private corporate use (the public benefit does not even come into play). It is enumerated in the...

    Private land not county's sphere:(purportedly) by Martin McClellan, Port St. John, Florida. The County Commission and the Natural Resources Management Office are considering a proposal called the Consolidated Environmental Ordinance and the Critical Habitat Ordinance, which were formerly called the Significant Environmental Areas Ordinance. The (sic) say it is not a taking of land, because the land remains in private hands. But the dictionary defines to "own" as: "a. to have or hold as property: possess, b. to have power over: control" If these ordinances pass, they will require the owners of the preserved land to follow certain protection procedures...
  • ARE WE REALLY AT WAR OR IS THIS REALLY ABOUT CONTROL?

    Are we at War or is this whole process really more about taking away our rights? There is ample evidence that is is really the latter. First if this was really about war and you respected the Constitutional Republic that we are supposed to be then the following would have occurred on September 12, 2001. 1. The Congress that day would have officially declared war against Al-Qaeda. This could have been done because it is a definitive organization even if it doesn't occupy just one country. 2. The Borders would have been sealed. This is blaringly not being done as...

    I am saddened by the decision of the Supreme Court of New Jersey. It is the demise of this Country unless all Conservatives come together and fight the Enemy. If we aid any part of the enemy then we advance their cause. The New Jersey Supreme Court is made up of 4 Democrats, 2 Republicans and 1 independant. The enemies carry the name not just Democrat but they carry the name Republican as well. They have each made their own deal with the devil not to carry this country through on principle but to do what is politically expedient to...

    self ^ | July 19, 2000 | Ravenstar
    There is a way for the People to take back their country and stop the "elite" and the rich from calling most if not all of the shots. This can be a Government of the People for the People and by the People again but it would require many very courageous acts. If the people are to be heard by the power structure of the Democrats and Republicans then everyone who truly cares about this country will not vote for either Democrat or Republican in any race but rather vote for the Libertarian, Green Party, Natural Law Party, Reform Party, ...

    Self and the Bill of Rights. ^ | July 8, 2000 | Ravenstar
    The First Amendment of the Bill of Rights is under attack by the leftists of this country under the guise that they seek to uphold that very amendment. If you carefully analyze their position and the standard phrases used in their "defense" of the First Amendment you will see that it is a perversion in progress. The First Amendment states: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the ...
