Ya gotta take the time to read Ann's response to her shabby treatment at the hands of Canada's intellectual elite (you know, the wussies who stood by while their foppish legislatures took away their guns).

The link to her column is available on Drudge.

What is it about parliamentary nations? Their citizens stand by while their governments methodically strip them from their rights?

I am of course speaking of Canada, Great Britain, Australia, and like countries.

Christ, people, get some 'nads!

Thank God for the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the gutsy Americans who fight for them!

Most of those countries don't have written constitutions as we do, plus
their concept of rights is that rights are something given by the government to the people-more privileges, really-that the government can withdraw when it wants to.
 
By golly, looks like we are doing the same thing on the health bill. I know 14 states are sueing, but lets see if they win. We arent doing well when we sit still for every democrat go totaly against all polls. I thought they were suppose to go by what the public wants. These people have down right lied every time they open their mouths and so far they have got away with it. The hold out dems were threatned, bribed and pressured. All but 4 caved in. When biden said roosevelt in 1929 went on tv to say some propaganda that biden quoted, no one dared point out that roosevelt wasnt president in 1929, and there was no tv yet. That was on a interview with katie kurak. This entire senerio on health care shouldnt even been allowed to be discussed as it is pure socalisim. But they have sucked everyone in to argue about what should be in the bill, when there should be no bill. I have news. The majority of this country WILL lay down and do nothing. The majority of this nation are already zombies! This gang is doing anything and everything they want and seem to be getting away with it!
This deal reminds me of a story. A well known moralist speaker gave a talk at some womans club. He started out by asking for a show of hands of who would just one time sleep with some guy who wasnt their husband for a million dollars. Many raised their hands. He kept asking the same question but lowering the ammount. Finaly he got towards the end and this woman said what do you think I am? A cheap prositute? He said lady, we have already established what you are. Now we are just haggeling about price!
 
I actually heard some "intellectual" from Canada on the Steve Malzberg Show BRAG that they have no 1st Amendment in Canada.
I better not say what I feel, it wouldn't end well for me.
 
We have a Constitution, and we made it difficult to change. But unfortunately, we didn't make it difficult to ignore. The only right in the Bill of Rights that has not been trampled to death is the 3rd about quartering troops in our homes. The government has totally abandoned the concept that Article One Section Four IS THE ENUMERATED POWERS of the government and that the Bill or Rights IS NOT an enumerated list of rights. This in fact, is what the 10th Amendment specifically says. Both elements are soundly ignored with impunity. We are subjects of our government, rather than citizens. They let us vote and pretend to make a difference because it distracts us from their larceny and the placement of our chains. If voting made a difference, it would be illegal. If voting made a difference, polar opposites like Bush and Obama would not govern the same (expanding government while curtailing liberty, enslaving rather than empowering the people, involving us in un-necessary military conflict, debasing the currency, selling out our sovereignty to world organizations, eliminating personal and financial privacy without probable cause that a crime has been committed, etc.)
 
With a willing, mostly liberal, Supreme Court over the last 80 years, it's become much easier to erode individual rights with court decidsions that amount to legislation. For example, Roe v. Wade found a right to privacy that theretofore never existed.

Cases like "Wickard v. Filburn", in 1942, found that a person not engaging in interstate commerced affected interstate commerce. Their logic in this case makes one's head hurt.

Progressives (liberal, socialist, et al), know that they can't win the battle of ideas on the merits. They have to lie, and trot out the usual heart string-tugging examples of what's wrong in America.

What conservatives usually won't do, is act on the theory that a liberal will not wish destruction on their opponents. Conservatives sometimes tend to look for too much good in folks. The reality is, there are people who are truly evil. Black and white do exist. It's not always just shades of gray.

I am a Canadian and it is incidents like this that make me ashamed to say so. Were it not for the USA we would certainly be worse off than even the rapidly decaying UK, and that other former penal colony, Australia.

And trust me, we Canadian gun owners DO thank the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the courageous Americans that fight for them - as without you folks we likely wouldn't any real rights at all. Seriously!

As well almost every Canadian gun owner I know is a member of the NRA - myself included.

Truly, were it not for the USA - a person might as well just give up.

Oh, and we gun owners do have 'nads - but the 'nad less out number us by about 1000 to one, in this country.

Remember, Canada is the country that decided the 1776 action was a little to upsetting for its weak constitution (pun intended)

You got that part right, but the rest of it goes like this:

Conservatives (neo-cons, fascists, et al) know they can't win the battle of ideas on the merits. They have to lie and trot out the usual boogeymen to instill fear and project twisted versions of what America is about. (see "Patriot Act")
 
The Battle of Quebec was close. It it had gone in favor of the US the eastern half of Canada would be comprised of states in the US. History always amazes me. The struggles of a few can alter the lives of millions.
 
Listening to Glen Beck this morning, he said that right now on MSNBC the (White House) State run media network,(had to turn it on) that they were talking about how conservatives were intimidating the Marxist Politician's with insults and then that Mad Cow annchorperson turned it to gun's and they (the conservatives) were useing gun's to intimidate them also!! I just couldnt take it anymore and turned it off. Let them come for my guns and see what there in for!! This is what's comeing, be ready to stand for our Constitution!! The frist shot's were fired today!!
 
One thing for sure, it doesn't matter if you agree with Ann Coulter or not, she's no dummy. You'd better have a quick mind if you want to engage that woman in verbal combat.

I haven't see a lot of her work but I agree with her far more of than I disagree.

Going back to the basic issue, our Fearless Leader and his loyal flunkies just took us one giant step down the socialist road with Obamacare.
There's a saying that goes something like this "you'll never know how expensive something is until it's free." Obamacare may kill us. Don

True conservatives always argue the idea on the merits. They never have to trot out anyone to get across their point. They also unerringly take arguments to logical conclusions. Whereas, modern liberals never get to the logical end of their arguments. They always end up moving in a circle.

Please, don't use the term "neo-con" in the same sentence as a true conservative. The two do not move along a common path.

America is a constitutionally limited republic. The constitution actually limits the power of the government.

Regards the Patriot Act - These are always "no win" laws. From a pure constitutional perspective, non-citizens have no rights. One of the securities of citizenship is having constitutional protections. Would you have enemies, foreign or domestic, conducting operations leading to the downfall of the United States. How about the citizen terrorist? Would you have let Timothy McVeigh get away with his murders had less-than-legal means been used to locate and arrest him?

At what point does the constitution create a suicide pact? I know of no provision in the document which states that a person, hell-bent on destroying my country and way of life, must be accorded the protections of the citizenry.

Do we allow socialists to legally destroy the republic? If you don't believe that this is the path we are now on, you are kidding yourself. At what point does one forcibly keep his rights?

Thomas Jefferson stated it correctly - "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." This is no idle statement.

Thanks Dennis it couldnt have been said better
 
There you go again Dennis. Dragging us back to reality. I read Frailer's post and thought everything was good and was ready to link arms and sing koombaya and then you went and spoiled it by writing the truth.

God bless you and help you to continue to stand strong. You are not alone!

Respectfully, you just reinforced my point. Those on the far left strip away liberty by appealing to pity; those on the far right do so by appealing to fear.

"Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." (I can quote dead guys, too.)

I don't know if I'd be quoting Jefferson if I were you. The Great State of Texas has branded him a liberal of the worst stripe. But he was a "true liberal." As, I suppose, am I.

No one is appealing to fear when fear is justified. When four jet airliners are flown into three buildings and the Pennsylvania countryside, that is justifiable fear. And the correct reaction is to punish those who instilled the fear.

If you refer to "those on the far right" appealing to fear, then you must omit the true conservative. The true conservative doesn't need to instill fear in anyone to make the point. Further, true conservatives are not "right wing". They represent a morally (not necessarily religious) upright way of life, living their lives for their own good; leaving others to do the same.

People make the mistake of using the term "far right" to include Neo-Nazi's, skinheads, etc. Those people are not on the far right. Nazis and their progeny are of the socialist ilk. Nazis and communists are just two sides of the same coin. Nazis (translated "National Socialist"), blamed everyone (Jews, gypsies, communists, etc.) but themselves for failures, and used that as the basis for starting a war; and communists used war and subversion to overthrow legitimate democracies. The far right and far left are one and the same.
 
If the "true conservative" is the good kind, can the same be said for the "true liberal." Or are all liberals bad?

That's a rhetorical question. The Nazi card has been played, so I'll bow out now.
