“Does our government claim the authority to kill an American on American soil without benefit of due process?”
Let these words sink into the total present state of your mind for a few moments…
Now, for the love of God, please stop and think where we have come to in this country when a US Senator has to filibuster on the floor of the US Senate for 13 hours before he finally get’s an answer to the question!
Even scarier than that is the fact that John Gambling, a self-proclaimed Conservative radio show host mocked Rand Paul’s courageous stand as “paranoid lip-flapping”! I almost drove off the road I was so shocked and outraged. How any rational-minded person would not fear the intent of the same government that has illegally armed Mexican drug cartels with thousands of assault weapons (Fast & Furious), still hasn’t answered for the deaths of four American citizens in Benghazi while arming the Muslim Brotherhood, while it secured the authority to detain American citizens on American soil without due process through the NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) is completely beyond me!
I am supposed to believe that the nature of men addicted to power who are responsible for the stated facts above, wouldn’t use drone weaponry on those who threaten their hold on power?
I read a very disturbing blog the other day that ties into this story very nicely. The title of it is, Will the Reasonable Conservatives Please Stand Up? http://allynsalley211.blogspot.com/2013/02/will-reasonable-conservatives-please.html
This is the second strike I have witnessed from this complete phony masquerading as a Conservative Blogger! There’s no 3rd strike in this game sweetheart…you are EXPOSED!
The problem with “Reasonable Conservatives” Tina, is that they do not STAND UP! What “Reasonable Conservatives” do Tina, is they bend and they compromise and they negotiate…which is all fine and dandy when you are bending, compromising and negotiating with “Reasonable Democrats”! Look out your window Tina…these are not your father’s Democrats!! These are Progressive Radicals on a mission to F-U-N-D-A-M-E-N-T-A-L-L-Y T-R-A-N-S-F-O-R-M AMERICA! And YOU are helping then do just that!
One year ago today we stood on a village green in Goshen, NY to defend OUR religious freedom and the 1st Amendment! This month we stood on the state capitol steps in Albany, NY to defend OUR 2nd Amendment!! You know what Tina…I didn’t see any of your “Reasonable Conservatives” at any of these events! Do you care to guess why that might be Tina? Well I will tell you that it is because your “Reasonable Conservatives” are afraid of being labeled as the very “Right Wing Extremists” you mention in your assault on human intelligence! Well done! You have succeeded in marginalizing courage and common sense!
I truly fear to imagine where we will be standing this time next year. I just know that “Reasonable Conservatism” is NOT what we will be standing for!
I just linked to your blog entry on my blog. It’s good to have multiple viewpoints on the subject of “reasonable conservatives”.
Any poor soul reading you as a conservative needs to change their reading glasses my dear! That’s ok…you get along now and leave the fighting to us!
So tell me, shutupnsing, do you spend your time promoting conservative values? Or are you one of those who screams, “Barack Obama isn’t a citizen! He’s a Muslim!” If you are the former, I hate to break it to you, you are one of those “reasonable conservatives” Tina is talking about!
Reasonable conservatives aren’t afraid to stand up. We are just tired of so-called “conservatives” wasting time on unproven conspiracy theories and false accusations. My opinion is that those engaged in these do far more harm to our cause then those of us who want to see conservative values upheld and defended.
Sorry, you have failed to make your case.
So Miss Laura let me pose you a question. Which Conservative, the “reasonable” or the “so-called” is responsible for the world in which we find ourselves today…where “so-called” Catholic Governors who pass Gay Marriage & Gun Control Laws in the middle of the night against the will of the people and still enjoy the blessings of Rome, while faithful bishops (SSPX) are excommunicated for adhering to liturgical purity? Which Conservative allows themselves to be bound and gagged in a growing state of Constitutional illegitimacy where the lawmakers exempt themselves from the chains they bind us with…a state that has murdered 55 million before birth and condemned the rest to lives of stupidity, ignorant of what it means to be an American? Is Benghazi-gate a conspiracy theory? Was Fast & Furious a conspiracy theory? Laura my dear, you are either a “Progressive Plant” or simply dumb as a door-nail! In either case, you not only give “Conservatism” a bad name, you are the worst kind of threat to Liberty & Freedom!
I think a “reasonable conservative” is the first cousin to the “moderate” a liberal in denial! McCain and Graham ought to be gutted on sight!
Not very “reasonable” of you Marty! 😉
Good post brother. But what concerns me more than the drone issue is the apparent ignorance or lack of outrage over the NDAA provision which gives government the authority to arrest and detain ANY ONE indefinitely with out warrant or cause or trial.
