If you have, as I do, liberal frien
ds either in person or through social media, no doubt you, as have I, been on the receiving end of dismissive and at times, curse-laden retorts when you truthfully refer to their party as socialists.
Glenn Beck, for years, has been on the receiving end of such vitriol every time he brings up Cloward and Piven or Saul Alinsky.
I’m about to link it all together for you in one neat and tidy little package.
The “Occupy Wall Street” protests.
The “Fast and Felonious” gun walking scandal is growing deeper by the day. Eric Holder is in trouble. Lots of trouble – and the GOP sent 
a letter to Obama demanding a Special Counsel to look into the matter.
It’s not going to end there. It’s not going to end with Holder and the DOJ- and for that matter, I don’t think it going to end with just the “Fast and Felonious” scandal either.
This was a multi level, multi departmental death trap. Right now, it’s the DOJ in the hot seat but, as we all know, the ATF was in on it and so was the DHS and, I suspect, it goes farther still. ICE probably wasn’t untouched by it either.
Ask yourself this question.
How could an operation involving the ATF, the DOJ and the Department of Homeland Security escape the notice, or…The INVOLVEMENT by way of signing off on it, of the President? HOW?
Across social media, from Facebook to Twitter and many other venues, I have seen some very disturbing posts, comments, tweets and sentiments over the last two days. To say I am disappointed in what I am seeing and hearing is an understatement.
Within two days, both Chris Christie and Sarah Palin have made it official that neither will be running in 2012. No ifs, ands or buts – they are not going to run.
They did NOT quit as they WILL be more involved than ever before! It’s being INVOLVED that counts!!
After each announcement, from their respective supporters, the fallout was immediate.
These two potential candidates were light years apart within the republican party, and it’s safe to say they didn’t share many supporters which makes the whole of the sum even more disturbing.
A good deal has happened with this whole Eric Holder possible perjury situation since The National Patriot published our original article, “Holder, at the Bottom of a Deep Hole, Keeps Digging” and as such, the saga deserves a breaking update.
Just hours after publication this morning, Republican Congressman Lamar Smith sent a letter to Obama instructing the DOJ to appoint a special council in the case to get to the bottom of Holder’s possible perjury stemming from his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on May 3rd, 2011.
You can read that letter by clicking here.
For a case in which a special council is called for, that council does not report back to the Attorney General but, under the current law, it is the Attorney General, in this case, Eric Holder, who appoints that council. This is why Rep. Smith has asked Obama to do so since Holder is the subject of the investigation.
Here’s one question which needs to be asked:
Just who DOES the special council report to?
In May of this year, Eric Holder testified before a Congressional committee that he first heard about operation Fast and Furious just a few weeks previous to his testimony. At first he said he wasn’t sure when he heard about it then, upon being pressed told the committee it was just a few weeks ago.
Eric Holder lied.
Documents and emails now show that Holder was aware of the operation which allowed weapons from the U.S. to “walk” into the hands of Mexican drug cartels 10 months before his testimony.
Holder’s exact quote, when pressed was that he had “probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.”
In fact, a memo from the Director of the National Drug Intelligence Center, Michael Walther, informed Holder that straw buyers in Operation Fast and Furious “are responsible for the purchase of 1,500 firearms that were then supplied to the Mexican drug trafficking cartels.”
Am I the only one who thinks, the more we hear from Rick Perry…The LESS we’re GOING to be hearing from Rick Perry? It’s because
we’re learning more and more about candidate Perry and we’re learning it from HIM and this guy, every time he speaks, seems to be taking direct aim at his own foot.
Perry’s demise is going to come at the hands of his own policies and chief among them, his stance on illegal aliens.
Perry stands WITH the idea of allowing those in our country, specifically in Texas, to receive in-state tuition breaks and that is a direct salvo fired at a very stout Tea Party tenant. Perry can’t back away from this issue, even though now, I’m sure he would like to. Perry made this a law in Texas – and now, he’s stood firmly behind his policy on the debate stage. He went so far as to state that anyone against such a policy is heartless.
Ok, I am the new dog on the block, but I have known the contributors to this blog for some time now. With much arm twisting, they 
FINALLY got me to come along and contribute my words to this great blog. I do not pretend to be an expert in anything, though I am versed on a lot. I may not come across to eloquently at times, but I promise I will answer your questions. I welcome constructive criticism but negativity is not tolerated. I do not subscribe to any political ideology except that of the Constitution, battered and bruised as she may be. I have given my time to this country doing many things I can’t talk about, ever. I held my hand up nearly 20 years ago and swore: I, Shadow Patriot, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.
I will piss you off. I will make you laugh. I will give you something to think about. I may even make you like me. But what I won’t ever do is candy coat anything. I call it like I see it…I always have.
In light of the killing of Awlaki in Yemen yesterday, an American citizen, there are some who are pointing to the Constitution’s 5th 
Amendment and crying foul. Certainly this must be considered and to do so, we must first look AT that amendment.
“No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”
Yesterday, I wrote an article regarding the need to stop Obamacare – not just through the court system but by repeal. The Obama administration has passed on the opportunity to delay things in an Alabama court which will take the Obamacare case directly to the Supreme Court with a decision expected early next summer.
I stated that even LOSING in court, Obama would know his precious socialized healthcare program wouldn’t be dead…just on life support. That is why conservatives MUST take the Senate in 2012 so that repeal will finally pull the plug.
Okay, a friend, a liberal friend, shot off an email and of course, his viewpoint is a great deal different than mine.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…and again…and again. If you want to know what liberals are doing, just pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing. Oh, I have liberals, every day, tell me I wrong and, most of the time, they punctuate it with a few 
choice names – but much more often than not, liberals confirm it at every turn.
According to liberals, the Tea Party is a bunch of racists. We’ve heard it nearly from the genesis of the Tea Party movement. We’re racists. That’s what they tell us.
Oh really?
Well, meet the new face of the Tea Party…Mr. Herman Cain. Of course it’s possible for a black person to be a racist as racism isn’t in and of itself…racist. I mean by that that racism isn’t confined to the “white’s only” bench.
I have been listening to Mr. Cain for some time now and have yet heard him utter anything near a racist comment. For that matter, I have yet to notice any racism in his actions either.
