One of the most prominent conservatives on the Judiciary panel, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R., Utah), has already said he plans to support the nominee. [More]How do you write the preface to this and then come to that conclusion?
Of course, Hatch is the same guy who thinks "dual-citizen" and "pal" Arnhole deserves a shot at president, enough so to draft "what he hopes will become the twenty-eighth amendment:
'A person who is a citizen of the United States, who has been for 20 years a citizen of the United States, and who is otherwise eligible to the Office of President, is not ineligible to that Office by reason of not being a native born citizen of the United States.' "How is it we give such as Hatch power over us, and represent him to gun owners as a friend without including the total picture?
That guy reps the state next door. I have been watching him for years and have always had the same view of him years ago as I do today. RINO
ReplyDeleteFour words could be added to Hatch's proposed amendment and Bob Hope could be elected to the presidency.
ReplyDeleteA person who is a citizen of the United States, who has been for 20 years a citizen of the United States, and who is otherwise eligible to the Office of President, is not ineligible to that Office by reason of not being a native born citizen of the United States or not being alive.
Bob Hope would certain be the best president we've ever had, even better than William Henry Harrison.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a problem with Hatch's proposed amendment (which would have no real effect), but I'd certainly never vote for Schwartzenegger even if he was eligible. His entire tenure as Governor of California has been proof that the people who said recalling Gray Davis would be a waste of time and money were right.
It should have told the people of Cahlyfohneea something when the most serious of candidates for the recall election was old Arnhole. Shoot, the list of freaks who came out of the woodwork to run for governor ran the entire length of I-5 (and I'm including the Oregon and Washington portions of I-5).
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, my point on this is thus. Each and every one of us has to get up off of our lazy duffs (and I mean no offense to anyone with this comment) and go out and actively campaign for the true conservatives every time they are on the ballot. We have to get everyone to realize that there are excellent choices for public office and not just the same old status quo. There are term limits for Congress, it's called the VOTE.
El Rush-bo today made an awesome point about congress, they are the ones who pass the laws, and when the laws don't do what they intended, they always sit back, have their hearings, and try to find others to blame such as with the bailout fiasco ongoing. They want to cry foul that there was no oversight, well it was the congressional buffoons who wrote the TARP laws. Now they want to blame everyone else for their failures to address those issues initially??? It's time we started enforcing the term limits and forcedc these yahoos out. But it won't work unless we get out there and spread the word on the good candidates. It's time for action and not reaction.
Morton Kondracke's column on Friday, if it comes true, suggest that the value of either a conservative or constitutional vote is about to be significantly reduced along with any associated political activity.
ReplyDeleteLike to the level of "self-delusion" once 10+ million "Ds for life" get created in the first 100 days of the Dear Leader.
Warning orders being drafted as we speak...
threepers creeper, at the time of that election, I felt like the Lone Ranger warning against Arnhole and publicly begging the gun groups to do the right thing and support McClintock. I wrote at least half-a-dozen long, detailed, sourced and impassioned pleas. I countered the naysayers who said TM didn't have a chance with credible polling data showing he would win if the Hessian were not in the race. I was ignored. One gun group insider went so far as to suggest on forums that Arnold was a "stealth pro-gun candidate" who had secretly donated "large chunks of money--for years." He even named JPFO as a recipient and I helped make sure my friend Aaron Zelman's denial was loud and clear. Did other groups benefit? It wouldn't surprise me.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, the pragmatic members of the republican party and the gun community ensured the candidate who would be the first governor in the country to sign a bill banning single-shot bolt-action rifles of unapproved caliber, and to ban lead ammo in a wide swath of the state and...oh, did I mention I'd already listed for readers all the gun control Arnold endorsed, made it loud and clear, and provided numerous documented anecdotes from his life showing he could not be trusted--including how he is still a dual citizen of Austria, despite an oath of citizenship pledging to renounce foreign allegiances...?
Then, of course, the wonderfully pragmatic California Rifle and Pistol Association actually endorsed Arnold AFTER he'd signed the .50 ban, because the other guy was really really REALLY bad...
I can't begin to tell you what a source of frustration it is to know how many gun owners are unaware of this recent history, and of those how few care.
That's one reason why I just shake my head when I see guys like myself or Vanderboegh attacked by some whelp who has no clue and yet presumes to be a lecturer.
I can think of a lot of reason to elect dead guys.
ReplyDeleteI'm open to discussing this type of amendment.
I'd also like to see two words appended to the second: no, really.
