Three things confuse a Christian; Yeah, four confound any man.

Unbelief masquerading as wisdom,
Enthusiasm presenting itself as faith,
Fear pretending to be patience, and
Permissiveness claiming to be love.

The Bush Administration Argues For Gun Control

My displeasure with the Bush administration has been continuously increasing. This is the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

On Friday, the Bush administration’s Justice Department entered into the fray over the District of Columbia’s 1976 handgun ban by filing a brief to the Supreme Court that effectively supports the ban.

If the Supreme Court accepts the Bush administration’s interpretation of our right to keep and bear arms, we will see the DC gun ban stay in existence–setting a precedent for numerous gun control laws to go forth all over the nation.

Alan Gura, the attorney who will be representing those challenging the ban before the Supreme Court, accused the Bush administration of “basically siding with the District of Columbia.”

The Los Angeles Times said Sunday, “gun-control advocates never expected to get a boost from the Bush administration.”

The Supreme Court can of course ignore the Bush administration’s advice, but the Justice Department brief does carry significant weight. But all is not lost.

President Bush has the power to fix this by ordering that the Justice Department brief be withdrawn or significantly amended.

It will take an uprising by voters to rein in the Justice Department. Let’s start that today.

Socialists In The People’s Republic of Kalifornia Want To Control Home Thermostats

Next year in California, state regulators are likely to have the emergency power to control individual thermostats, sending temperatures up or down through a radio-controlled device that will be required in new or substantially modified houses and buildings to manage electricity shortages.

The proposed rules are contained in a document circulated by the California Energy Commission, which for more than three decades has set state energy efficiency standards for home appliances, like water heaters, air conditioners and refrigerators.

The changes would allow utilities to adjust customers’ preset temperatures when the price of electricity is soaring. Customers could override the utilities’ suggested temperatures. But in emergencies, the utilities could override customers’ wishes.

Final approval is expected next month.

Quarterback for the Packers

In a news conference Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting Quarterback for the Packers this coming Sunday. Deanna asserts that she is qualified to be starting Quarterback because she has spent the past 16 years married to Brett while he played Quarterback for the Packers. During this period of time she became familiar with the definition of a corner blitz, and is now completely comfortable with other terminology of the Packers offense.

A survey of Packers fans shows that 50% of those polled supported the move.

Does this sound idiotic and unbelievable to you?

Well, Hillary Clinton makes the same claims as to why she is qualified to be President and 50% of democrats polled agreed!  She has never run a City, County, or State.

When told Hillary Clinton has experience because she has 8 years in the white house, Dick Morris stated…

“So has the Pastry Chef”.

USA Today Poll on the Second Amendment

USA Today is asking for your opinion regarding the Second Amendment. They are asking “Does the Second Amendment give individuals the right to bear arms?”

You can vote regarding this gun issue question at USA Today’s website. It will only take a few seconds of your time.

This upcoming year will become critical for gun owners with the Supreme Court accepting the District of Columbia’s case against the right for individuals to bear arms.

Then, pass the link on to all the pro gun folks you know. Hopefully these results will be published later this month.

PS Before someone writes, I know that the Second Amendment doesn’t give us the right to keep and bear arms! The Declaration of Independence says distinctly where our rights come from. They are God given. The Second Amendment affirms the right to keep and bear arms. The right itself pre-exists the Constitution, and the Second Amendments just states the fact.

If the Government can convince the public that our Constitution gives us any rights, then it’s a simple matter of amending the Constitution, or overriding it with an international treaty, to do away with that right.

However, if the right comes from God Himself, then no government on earth has the rightful power to take it away. It can only be surrendered through ignorance of what the right is, and where it comes from, cowardice, or treasonous intent.

I wonder if these poll questions are worded the way they are because the pollsters want you to believe that the Second Amendment gives you the right to keep and bear arms. Maybe, but I think they are just plain ignorant of the truth.

Why Most Men Are Republican

Hillary’s Socialism From Her Own Mouth

Take a look at this ad Hillary ran recently.

When it was sent to me I thought it was a joke. It surprised me that she would run such a Socialist ad. Not because I don’t think she’s a Socialist. I do. But I thought she’d want to hide that fact from the American voters. She doesn’t.
