U.S. Supreme Court Has Ruled on Obama’s Eligibility!!

According to the United States Supreme Court, Obama is ineligible to be the President. That’s right, you read that correctly. The United States Supreme Court has ruled that Obama is ineligible to serve as President.

It’s not that you haven’t been paying attention lately and yes, you can be excused for missing the ruling as it came down, not in the last few days but back in 1875.

This is the argument currently being made by the Liberty Legal Foundation but it is, as far as I can tell, a bad case. What follows is the case they are trying to make and what we should REALLY be looking at if we want to prove Obama’s ineligibility to hold the office.

The Liberty Legal Foundation has filed not 1 but 2 lawsuits, one in Arizona and the other in Tennessee neither of which have one single thing to do with Obama’s birth certificate OR challenging whether or not Obama was born in the United States.

There is no need for either in regard to these lawsuits.

Who Knew…When…And Why Didn’t Anybody Try To Stop It?

Joe Paterno knew. He knew about Jerry Sandusky. Paterno knew back in 1998 that Sandusky was being investigated on charges of child molestation and he knew in 2002 when Mike McQueary told him what he witnessed in the shower room. Paterno knew and all he did was kick it a rung or two up the ladder. Paterno told the Penn State Athletic Director and the school’s Vice President.

If McQueary knew and Paterno knew, and Curley and Schultz knew…so did a lot of other people. Graham Spanier, the school’s President knew. He’s the former President now.

It’s impossible to believe that, among a coaching staff which works so closely together every day, they didn’t all know.

A Pennsylvania DA who had investigated Sandusky back in 1998 vanished in 2005. Vanished, never to be seen or heard from again and has now been declared legally dead but no trace of his body has been found either. That DA knew.

To All Who Have Served, We Thank You

“To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…”

With those words, in 1919, President Wilson marked the 1st anniversary of the end of the War to End All Wars, a day which would become Armistice Day.

That war, the 1st World War came to an end on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918.

Some 7 years later, a Congressional resolution read: Whereas the 11th of November 1918, marked the cessation of the most destructive, sanguinary, and far reaching war in human annals and the resumption by the people of the United States of peaceful relations with other nations, which we hope may never again be severed, and

Whereas it is fitting that the recurring anniversary of this date should be commemorated with thanksgiving and prayer and exercises designed to perpetuate peace through good will and mutual understanding between nations; and

Whereas the legislatures of twenty-seven of our States have already declared November 11 to be a legal holiday: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), that the President of the United States is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies of friendly relations with all other peoples.

While the Marine Corps Celebrates, We Remember

Tomorrow is Veterans Day but today is special too. Today we celebrate the 236th birthday of the United States Marines. Formed in 1775 to assist the U.S. Navy during the Revolutionary War to conduct ship-to-ship fighting, provide shipboard security and discipline enforcement, and assist in landing forces.

Throughout its long and storied history, the U.S. Marines have fought in every conflict in which we have been involved.

While many will today celebrate the Corps and recount their history, I have chosen to narrow the focus.

In honor of the entire U.S. Marine Corps, throughout history and those who serve with honor today, I want to draw your attention to a single unit. A mere 400 Marines who changed history and who are responsible for our freedoms today.

There aren’t many of them left and it wasn’t until recently that these Marines were formally recognized for their remarkable efforts but you should know who they were, what they did and who they are now.

Is Penn State a Microcosm of Today’s Society?

When the Rule of Law Falls Beneath the Code of Morals

While we at The National Patriot do not venture off the political stage I am hoping you, our fine readers, will allow something of an exception here.

For more than 40 years, one man has either paced the sidelines or led from the box in Penn State. He has become the most successful coach in college football history. Joe Paterno and his career seem to be finished due to a sex scandal at that school.

Allow me for a moment to add some personal disclosure here. I grew up in Lincoln, Nebraska, and to this day, I am a true dyed in the wool Husker fan. I was attending the University of Nebraska back in the early 1980s when one of the most contentious games ever played between the Huskers and Penn State took place. Penn State won that game with the assistance of a couple of the worst calls ever seen by the officials.

Decades later, Graham Spanier, the current President of Penn State, was the President of the University of Nebraska.

Don’t Take the Sucker’s Bet in a Card Game With Liberals

The use of the “Race Card” in the political arena is, as we all know, used primarily by the left against conservatives and nearly each time it is employed, it is employed falsely. If a conservative does not agree with an Obama policy, that conservative is deemed a racist. If a conservative opposes affirmative action, that conservative is deemed a racist. If a conservative stands for stronger immigration laws…racist.

We have all see this tactic employed and to some extent, it can be effective but the effect is wearing thin with voters.

Liberals, from the get-go, tried and tried to use the “Race Card” against the Tea Party claiming the Tea Party was a racist movement. The tried to play that card against Glenn Beck when he held a rally on the Washington Mall on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.

It isn’t working like it once did and the only reason it ever worked is because nobody wants to be thought of as a racist. It never mattered to the left whether or not those to whom that label was ascribed were actually racists, just vilify them as racists and in the court of public opinion, their star will fade. Raise the question in the minds of the public and, to liberals, problem solved.

Just because the overuse and false use of the “Race Card” has taken the bulk of the effect off of it doesn’t mean liberals are anywhere near dropping that as a tactic.

A while back, Politico was interviewing Mary Francis Berry and asked her whether or not “branding” the Tea Party as racists will work. Berry’s response was very telling:

IAEA Report Details LEAKED and Iran IS Almost Ready to go NUCLEAR

The situation between Israel and Iran has taken another turn for the worse. We knew it was coming and now we have some degree of confirmation.

The IAEA report regarding Iran’s nuclear ambitions comes out tomorrow – but already, some general details of that report are leaking out and the picture is not pretty.

Tomorrow’s report will talk about how Iran has a missile, the Shahab 3, which can reach from Iran to Israel. Many who have been steadfastly insisting that Iran poses no direct threat to Israel because they have no weapon with the range to hit Israel will be proven wrong. Iran does indeed possess that range but that’s not the worst of it.

Iran has also, according to the IAEA report, apparently found a way to fit such a missile with a nuclear warhead.

Cain Accuser CLEARLY Not Acting Like an ASSAULT Victim

Yesterday, I said I smelled a skunk. If you missed that article, you can read it by clicking here. I was referring to the “case” of Sharon Bialek, the woman who stepped forward yesterday with her celebrity-chasing, self-promoting attorney, Gloria Allred, to level accusations of sexual harassment against Herman Cain.

According to Bialek, what happened was not at all sexual harassment, it was sexual assault.

Bialek claimed that Cain reached under her skirt, tried to touch her genitals and pulled her head towards his crotch.

I said I smelled a skunk because she had to READ a first person account of the alleged event, she stammered her way through it, awkwardly pause to flip pages, stumbled through words and sentences and even had to read the portion of why, some 14 years later, she decided to come forward.

Eric Holder Will Man Up Today…No, Not Really

This morning, Eric Holder will sit down with senators in a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, regarding Fast and Furious. No doubt this will be a much more friendly conversation than next month’s hearing in the House. I’m not saying serious questions won’t be asked today, but I suspect that liberals posing questions will throw soft pitches.

We already have some indication of Holder’s stance going into this hearing as his prepared opening remarks are available.

“The mistakes of ‘Operation Fast and Furious,’ serious though they were, should not deter or distract us from our critical mission to disrupt the dangerous flow of firearms along our Southwest border.”

Is he serious?

Newest Cain Accuser is NOT Passing the Smell Test

I smell a skunk. I will admit I’m not always right – but, I smell a skunk. There is something wrong with the woman who was trotted out to face TV cameras this morning by Gloria Allred, as the 4th woman to level accusations against Herman Cain.

Yep, I smell a skunk.

Forget for a moment that Allred is a shameless self promoter and an attorney who has chased more celebrity cases than the paparazzi. Just forget that for a moment.

Forget also, just for a moment that Allred did this in the 2010 California election but with an illegal alien.

I smell a skunk.

Focus on THIS woman, Sharon Bialek, and on her press conference.
