Recently in the Washington Examiner, National Right to Work Foundation president Mark Mix discussed the Foundation’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) attack against the shadowy Obama administration, which is refusing to let the American people know more about the close connections between Department of Labor officials and Big Labor operatives.

As Mix explained, the Obama Administration has stonewalled on numerous disclosure demands, despite its promises of a new era of transparency.
After months of waiting for a response from the Department of Labor, Right to Work Foundation lawyers filed a federal lawsuit in U.S. District Court to force the Obama administration to fulfill its obligations under the Freedom of Information Act. Hopefully, this complaint will spur the Department of Labor toward greater disclosure.

The public at least deserves to know the extent to which union operatives are rewriting laws and regulations put in place to ensure minimal standards

It’s not only BP and government coziness.. let’s see how far this goes?

We cannot use the “right” to life as applying to a child within the womb. That is not our founder’s intent. They were writing of those living outside of the womb. Let’s not bastardize this phrase as others have done to the “enumerated” powers of Congress and the Presidency.

I would not join a group that considered one of my most heart wrenching choices, murder. How can our Party expect to invite the unrepentant by calling them murderers or sinners? We don’t need a guilt driven membership. Leave that to the utopians..

Who is the Republican Party to require “repentance” from these patriotic Americans that love our Constitution as much as we?

How much more young blood could we attract to energize our base and invite independents?

Could returning this country to our Founder’s original intent be the entire platform of the Republican Party instead of the overly wordy lawyereeze that currently serves as content? Let’s get back to basics first.. argue about “slavery” later, oops, I mean “sanctity of human life”.. let’s unite under one goal, freedom as envisioned by our founders..

Could we fight just for the original intent of our founders and drop the right to life litmus?

Oh, pooh, being childish again.. sorry..

Navy Seals trial moved to Iraq
Jane Jamison

The Newport News DailyPress.com reports :

Two of the three Navy elite commando SEALS who are facing military court martial for their arrest of an Islamic terrorist are going to have trials in Iraq so that they can exercise their right to confront their accuser face-to-face.

Special Warfare Operater 2nd Class Jonathan Keefe, Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Julio Huertas and Special Warfare Operator 2nd Class Matthew McCabe are accused of mistreating Ahmed Hashim Abed after arresting him and denying wrongdoing in later statements to commanders.

Abed is the accused Islamo-terrorist mastermind of the ambush, torture, murder, burning and hanging of 4 Blackwater contract personnel who were making a food delivery in Fallujah, Iraq in 2004. The American men, most of them former U.S. military, were dragged behind vehicles, burned and hung from a Euphrates river bridge while town crowds cheered.

U.S. Military commanders, (who apparently suffer from the same “politically-correct” illness as the President of the United States) allege that SWO2 McCabe may have punched Abed after his arrest. The alleged “crime” of the other two SEALS is, apparently, that they didn’t rat out their fellow soldier. Abed may have also suffered a cut lip in the incident. Background on this story is here and here.

In the past few weeks, military prosecutors have sought to delay the trials of the SEALS and also tried to simply try the SEALS on the basis of a taped deposition of Abed. Attorneys for the SEALS demanded the right to confront and question their Muslim terrorist accuser in person at trial. The fact that the SEALS have to be flown to Iraq to protect their rights, their careers, their names and the SEALS’ reputation is a shameful waste of time, expense and effort. The Christmas Day bombing attempt on an American jetliner shows the U.S. government has much more important business than prosecuting soldiers who were doing exemplary work tracking down a Muslim terrorist murder suspect.

The clock keeps ticking, the Obama administration has had plenty of time and still has more time to drop these charges and make this all go away. American soldiers being treated like terrorists. Terrorists being treated like soldiers. The silence from this White House on this matter is shameful.

I guess it is too naive or irrational of me to assume we tackle the big dream of impeachment and demand our standing in the Supreme Court to question the legitimacy of this man as the President of a free nation. He has demonstrated an extreme lack of respect for those that defend our Constitution and nurture freedom throughout the world. How many schools have G.I.’s helped build in Iraq? How many books and supplies?

How dare this President pompously prance back and forth declaring what is good and bad for “we the people”. He is took an oath to be the facilitator of our freedoms, not the gatekeeper.

He has brought the front lines of the war on terror to New York, on our American soil for a civil trial. He tries enemy combatants in cities in civilian courts for being “criminals”?

They are not criminals, they are enemy combatants that do not wear uniforms and are not associated with an organized army.

He is placing American civilians in more danger by doing this than military tribunals at GITMO. He is not protecting us or the Constitution.

Look at our borders….

Our Presidency has been vacated.. our Government’s Democratic Party is corrupt. But dear Father above allow us the wisdom to remove the log from our own eye before we remove the twig from theirs.

I’m mad and I got enough to spread around.. but first things first……. Is 2012 reeeally our only option? Or is it only because we have decided it so? Too big for a whole Party to do? Officially demand transparency or our Republicans walk out of Congress? Too radical. Immature? Self Destructive? Yeah.. you fellers are right.. we mustn’t tackle the impossible..

The Pro-amnesty people are in DC right now pushing for amnesty for 12 Million illegals
currently in America. While 15 Million of our citizens are out of work, 7-8 Million illegals
have jobs! Join the good folk with Roy Beck at NumbersUSA.com to reverse this unjust situation!
You should call today your Senators and Representative opposing amnesty, and for providing
jobs for Americans: Capitol Switchboard 1-202-224-3121 and ask for their office.

If each and everyone of us don’t do something, we will be terribly sorry later.
