Bryce, Speaking of Congressional investigations into breaches of law, AND also keeping with this forum’s titled topic: “Does anyone care about our rights” I MUST bring up the DAMNING evidence concerning the 9-11 “MURDER” of nearly 3000 Innocent American citizens! Does ANYONE care about THEIR rights to LIVE?! I just got in a 2hr documentary DVD entitled: “9/11:BLUEPRINT FOR TRUTH”, produced by http://www.AE911Truth.org that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that explosives and fine-grain military thermite was used to “ASSIST” bringing down ALL three buildings! The witnesses, including many professionals in the fields of architects, engineers, explosive demolitions experts and fire fighters present a SOLID case indicating an INSIDE JOB! Due to our controlled media, mainstream America is totally ignorant of this information that points fingers directly at the government itself! For starters, ex-president George Bush MUST be confronted with this information and asked some very serious questions! That “attack” was awfully “handy” for him to have an excuse to initiate his “war on terror” and the so called “Patriot” Act! For the sake of all those poor souls that died such a horrible death through jumping,burning or being crushed, we MUST NOT let those resposible get away with such an atrocity just to promote their agenda! PLEASE obtain a copy of this video and help spread the word not only in memory of the 9-11 victims but for the sake of JUSTICE! The SAME people that are behind 9-11 are behind all of our woes today! It is up to WE THE PEOPLE to hold all tyrants responsible for their actions! Once we get the ball rolling on exposing these criminals then we can continue on linking them to their accessories and cleaning house of the evil vermin that plagues our beloved country! This effort must NEVER wane! IN GOD WE TRUST,all others we watch closely!

PHL – you made a number of attacks against other people’s belief systems. I want to make clear that those kind of comments really aren’t welcome here. please refrain from them in the future.

Maybe you could instead try to talk positive about what you have to offer – and stop putting down other users on this site because they have different religious beliefs than you. You’ll have a better chance of influencing people if you do.

on top of it all, when you lump people into groups like you keep doing, you sound like a socialist.

thank you.

“If we do not have TIMELY Congressional Oversight, and Investigations into breaches of LAW, or Checks and Balances between the Executive, Legislature, and Judicial Branches, as described in the Constitution of the USA,
or have folks within the Department of Justice upholding their Constitutional Obligations INSTEAD of looking the other way,
have we lost our REPUBLIC and found another form of Government?”

-Just Wondering

Congressional Oversight- as in when there should have been someone saying â€˜No, You canâ€™t abuse prisonersâ€™?

Investigations into criminal wrongdoing? Last I heard, there was a vote against even CONDUCTING A HEARING into whether or not Bush/Cheney was crook. They werenâ€™t even compelled to ask questions…

Checks and balances- as in Congress asking Cheney to come answer some questions (and not even under oath) and him being allowed to say NO?????

Lastly and most disgraceful have been the betrayal of the Department of Justice. I saw John Yoo and David Addington come down for a little Q and A in the halls of congress and I can tell you that neither man gave a ratâ€™s ass about the constitution OR the people. To them it was a game of how much they could get away with at the expense of liberty and the American ideals of our founding fathers.

So Iâ€™ll end with the quote from Benjamin Franklin you all know:

A lady asked Dr. Franklin:

â€œWell Doctor what have we got a republic or a monarchy?â€

â€œA republic,â€ replied the Doctor

â€œ…if you can keep it.â€

we are going to have to stop being citizens.

Okay, I’m driving down the highway one morning headed to work and I see a line of cars on the shoulder of the other side of the road. As I got closer I could see that there were about ten Mexican “gentlemen” standing in the grass relieving themselves … in broad daylight, on a major travel artery in Oklahoma! The irony is that they were p*ssing on America. The reality is that their culture permits that kind of crap. Apply the same principle to the multitudes of third-world immigrants that we’ve brought into and empowered in this country over the last 40 years, and it ain’t that difficult to figure out why we seem to lack the moral fiber necessary to defend our way of life.

PHL, I understand your skepticism, and I think I share it to an extent. But there are even deeper moral issues in play and we’re going to figure it out eventually, or we’re dead. But there’s got to be a starting point. I mean, the race doesn’t begin half way down the track.

I Think States sort of pick and choose when to take the moral high ground in terms of federal money. I remember Back in the 1980′s when Idaho was one of the last hold out states in terms of federal road money in exchange for raising the drinking age… The roads were awful, I would say some of the worst in the Nation. Pressure was mounting in the press against Idaho to cave in.. and finally the public chimed in.. the drinking age was raised to 21, Idaho got it’s roads fixed… another attempt at standing against nationalism shot down for the sake of money.

At bottom, the issue is, are the States passing resolution merely because they resent unfunded mandates and intrusions into offical business of the States qua States, or are they passing resolutions because they are moved out of the deeper moral issues that are impacting our culture and communties?

If all they care about are unfunded mandates and the ability to establish their own speed limits on the Highway, and the bigger issues of abortion, school prayer, Intelligent Design, Manger Scenes, and Ten Commandment monuments, etc., which DO impact our culture they do not care about, then we are truly in serious trouble as a people.

Unfunded mandates are NOT going to make or break us in terms of liberty and freedom, but the larger moral issues will.

I in no way meant to offend, at times my fingers move faster then my brainâ€¦

Yeah; it happens to the best of us.

I don’t think anyone here means to unfairly attack you, Larry, but you can hardly expect them not to defend their deepest held convictions when they perceive them as being under attack.

Anyway, water under the bridge.

People,
I in no way meant to offend, at times my fingers move faster then my brain… I can come off a bit rank at times, but only because I lack tact and diplomacy.. ( okay, there I said it ) I certainly don’t lack compassion or respect towards any of you..I will now retire to the kitchen, make a hot steamy cup of Sanka.. and hope that you all forgive my bull in a china shop approach. I would offer you all a cup as a token gesture for forgiveness, But I seem to be the only one who drinks it.

Iâ€™m all for moving on and focusing on what we can agree on – and that seems to be that the federal government is no longer a federal one, but instead a national one.

Well, it isn’t supposed to be either one exclusive to the other. The original system involved both national and federal characteristics. But you’re right, since federalism has almost altogether been abandoned it has become heavily imbalanced and national.
