Second Amendment News Roundup for 5/4/09

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

AFP reports that China has begun doing what many of us warned about all along--they are cutting back on buying U.S. debt and may stop altogether...an ominous sign since Obama will run up 10 trillion in debt over the next few years.

CNS News has an example of why Americans are increasingly outraged by the Obama spending and debt--the Feds will spend $400,000 to study the drinking and sex habits of homosexuals in Argentina. Say what!!???

Every Blade of Grass gives us a report on yesterday's day at the shooting range.

Armed Citizen has a MUST-read on the growing 'conservative underground' in these Obama days. Read it all.

The War on Guns posts an explosive story highlighting Nancy Pelosi's declaration that she and her Obama-minions are above the law!

From Codrea's Gun Rights Examiner: 'What's the Harm in Waiting for Government to Recognize Rights?'

The Newbius Papers provides essential reading entitled, 'Rational Arguments, Useful Idiots, and Liberty--A Call to Action.'

Nicki quotes a writer concerning the Barack Obama push toward socialism. It's worth taking a look.

JR has a most interesting read on the dumbing down of the public educational system.

Walls of the City presented an article on terrorism and the Napolitano Department of Homeland Security that pre-dates my article at Columbia Conservative Examiner today. I just saw his piece today, and I highly recommend it, because it confirms many of the points I made in that article. While we are having our attention diverted, the REAL danger to America is going unnoticed, including an outright attack on the rights of citizens.

Mike McCarville points to a perfect example of what Walls of the City is talking about--an Obama nominee to the DOJ who wants UN gun control. The spineless vermin are afraid to face the public with this chit, so they 'treaty-away' our rights by signing agreements with the UN. VERMIN!

Western Rifle Shooters Association follows up with this report of even more madness coming out of the Department of Homeland Security.

Alphecca reports that Texas is set to test it's sovereignty with gun rights.

2A Musing's got some ammo and other goodies. Take a look.

From Kurt Hofmann's St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner: 'Is It Possible to "Reform" the BATFE?' I don't think so. The entire operation should be shut down completely.

Tam comments on the expected move by BHO today to change the tax code to stop citizens from investing overseas.

Ride Fast and Shoot Straight has an interesting read on 'American War Crimes.'

Sebastian posts a pic of the marquis of a church in Maine that caters to gun and sporting enthusiasts. Now THAT is a church I could get into!

The Wandering Minstrel presents a MUST-read from Krauthammer on Obama's judicial philosophy--a philosophy which to me is very, VERY dangerous!

Conservative Libertarian Outpost has an important 'liberty alert' from Colorado that could have broad implications for national elections. Read it, and then ACT!

Say Uncle blogs on the impending demise of the Boston Globe. I hope the New York Times is next!

Standing By reports that a TSA agent stole a gun from the luggage of a police officer.

Mike Vanderboegh posts the personal, riveting, and moving story of his move from being a Communist to an ardent supporter and defender of our Constitutional Republic. In my opinion, no greater testament to the superiority of liberty over collectivism exists than the experience of one who at one time was on the other side and 'saw the light.'

Pax Parabellum says that the overwhelming majority of Americans are worried about Pakistan's nukes, given that the terrorists move closer and closer to seizing them. More 'hope and change' in these Obama days.

Robb Allen writes about the most lethal firearm he owns.

Texas Fred reports that Mexican drug smugglers have moved into New Mexico. Still don't think we should close the southern border?

Days of our Trailers comments on the fact that Paul Helmke is blowing his stack over all the latest polls showing a significant drop in support for gun control among the citizens.

From Insight on Freedom: 'WANTED: One Female, Minority, Socialist Supreme Court Nominee.'

Michelle Malkin issues a dire warning about the FCC's latest move on its 'diversity panel'--a move in the direction of the Fairness Doctrine that will silence conservative talk radio! Friends, this is SERIOUS! It's time to scream bloody murder.

ALERT! Muslim Terrorist Training Camps in U.S.

While Barack Obama, Janet Napolitano, and the Department of Homeland Security engage in the despicable diversionary tactic of focusing on a few good ole boys with guns, the real terrorists--the head-choppers--are setting up training camps all across America.

Read about this stunning report in my new column today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Citizens who are concerned about REAL threats rather than trumped-up, baseless allegations by Homeland Security, should read this article.

Thanks!

Napolitano Ignites Yet Another Firestorm

As if it were not enough to issue a report that refers to most mainstream Americans as 'potential homegrown terrorists,' DHS Director Janet 'Veterans-Are-Terrorists' Napolitano has done it again.

This time her mouth has caused somewhat of an 'international incident.' Read all about it in my column today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Writing for the Examiner has been a life-saver of sorts for me in light of recent health issues and the accompanying expense. I am paid according to the number of people who read the column.

Thus, it is vitally important that you click on the link and read. This is most helpful, and I deeply appreciate all you have done thus far in this area. Please continue.

Napolitano 'Clarifies' But the Die is Cast

Despite Janet Napolitano's 'clarification' on Fox News that she didn't mean to target veterans in that libelous and slanderous report issued by Homeland Security, she actually did very little to assuage the fears of growing numbers of Americans that the Obama administration exhibits a distinct disdain for at least half the population.

This is the subject of my article today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Please click on the link above, read, and pass it along. Thank-you very much for your support.

CALL HOMELAND SECURITY TO PROTEST!

Let's bombard the Department of Homeland Security with phone calls of protest over the 'Right Wing Extremist' report they issued, where they disparaged, insulted, and labeled veterans, gun owners, Constitutionalists, pro-lifers, and small government advocates as 'potential terrorists.'

Click here for the DHS homepage where you can find all of the pertinent phone numbers.

Remember, it is important to be respectful, focused, brief, and to the point. A great deal of damage can be done by those who call the Department and rant.

***SPECIAL LIBERTY ALERT***

This is a special Liberty Alert.

Barack Obama and his Department of Homeland Security have taken direct aim at the nation's conservatives in a scathing indictment of anyone who basically disagrees with the liberal agenda.

Under the guise of issuing an alert concerning 'rightwing terror groups,' DHS has in effect painted 70% of Americans as potential terrorists.

Be sure to carefully read this report provided by Michelle Malkin, which highlights the dangerous nature of this DHS report--which is a drastic departure from its past practices.

In addition, this special alert became the top-of-the-page headline on The Drudge Report today.

Further, Pamela Geller was one of the first to issue this alert when the story first broke over the weekend. Read it all.

My friends, Obama's war on the American people has begun. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Bush, Chertoff Deny Level of Al Qaeda Threat

Washington, DC (TLS). President Bush and Homeland Security Director Michael Chertoff both denied that the threat from Al Qaeda to the U.S. is at pre-9/11 levels. The denials are not surprising given that common wisdom maintains that government must not send citizens into a panic.

However, The Liberty Sphere continues to maintain that not only is the threat capability of Al Qaeda at its highest level since 9/11 but that the terrorist threat to the U.S. mainland is at its highest level ever.

Official documents from counterterrorism officials, released Thursday and confirmed by several news organizations including FOX NEWS, CNN, ABC News and others, point to a stronger Al Qaeda that has regrouped and rebuilt and has plans to infiltrate the U.S. mainland IF they have not already done so.

This ominous news means that at the very least Al Qaeda is poised to do much more damage to the U.S. than on 9/11.

Yet Chertoff reverted to his previous statements last week, i.e., 'there is no specific, credible threat of a terrorist attack against the U.S. at the present time.'

This is in spite of his statement on Wednesday that he has a 'gut feeling' that we may be in for a major attack this summer.

Apparently new reporters covering Chertoff and the President are allowing them to get away with these dodges without asking them two very pointed and direct questions: 'Where is that gut feeling coming from? Upon what is it based?'

Chertoff's gut feeling is the direct result of his knowledge of the new intel that shows Al Qaeda plans on a 'summer spectacular' attack on the U.S. Chertoff is also well-aware of the intel that further describes Al Qaeda's growing strength and its plan to plant a terrorist cell within the U.S.

This fact is so very obvious that it causes one to wonder just how gullible Chertoff and the President must believe Americans to be.

Perhaps we can be grateful that behind the scenes and in private the Administration is in a frenzy to get prepared for what could be a devastating summer. Despite the public denials, we can take at least some comfort in their top secret, high level, private meetings that are designed to address the latest intel and devise a method to thwart whatever may be ahead.

The Liberty Sphere still believes that the Administration should level with the public and place the nation's terror alert on red.

FBI Reports High Level of Terrorist 'Chatter'

Washington, DC (TLS). The FBI is reporting a spike in the level of what is known as 'terrorist chatter' over the past two years within the United States. Surveillance sources indicate that since 2005 the chatter has been unusually high and has sparked a sharp increase in search warrants issued within our borders.

Such chatter has resulted in several high-level arrests and the foiling of terrorist plots in the making.

However, the two years of chatter has revealed a few gaps in the nation's security apparatus. In addition, many within the Department of Homeland Security believe that Al Qaeda has been actively recruiting persons inside the United States to carry out attacks against citizens, which is potentially leading up to a massive crescendo of 'shock and awe' aimed at killing multi-thousands of Americans.

Pelosi, Chertoff Meet with Terrorist Supporters

Washington, DC (TLS). In this latest expose' by the experts at the Counterterrorism network, American officials are increasingly engaging in the dubious practice of meeting with supporters of terrorists, such as Syria.

Two of the main culprits of late are Nancy Pelosi and Department of Homeland Security director Michael Chertoff.

Pelosi is clearly undercutting our nation's policies toward terrorism. Chertoff is engaging in behavior that clearly places him in the ranks of promoting homeland INsecurity.

Read this explosive expose' of the actions of these two American officials, and others, who are undermining our ability to effectively thwart the worldwide march of terrorism:

LIBERTY ALERT! Sutton Under Fire Over Border Patrol Fiasco

Washington, DC (TLS). Finally, U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, who sent two Border Patrol agents to prison using fabricated and tainted evidence supplied by a repeat drug smuggler, has come under fire for his conduct in the case.

The Liberty Sphere has been reporting for weeks that Sutton is a co-conspirator in one of the biggest scandals to rock the U.S. government since the Clinton years.

Now, apparently, Congress has the goods on Sutton to begin some serious investigations into prosecutorial misconduct, lying to the court, falsely accusing two innocent men, and participating in a set-up by the Department of Homeland Security to smear the reputations of two Border Patrol agents in order to save face with the Mexican government, which is corrupt beyond description.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher said this about Sutton: 'Congress has an obligation as a separate branch of government to watch the executive branch and rein in an out-of-control prosecutor that is a danger to the American people. Arrogance and disregard for human beings lends credibility to the bad things in the past.'

The Liberty Sphere hopes that not only will Congress act quickly to bring to justice to the rogue prosecutor, but also the rogue Judge, and the corrupt officials in the Department of Homeland Security who lied to Congress.

Framing two innocent men should carry the maximum penalty of the law. And there are many implicated in this set-up job.
