Alan L. Keys: Americans without God- No Longer a nation?

In a recent WND article Bill Federer cites Barack Obama's emphatic proclamation, back in 2006: "Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation." Mr. Federer then proceeds to detail the fact that prove incontrovertibly that, when the American people ratified the U.S. Constitution, Christianity was the formally declared basis for public service in 9 of the 13 original States; and that conformity with tenets or practices consistent with the Christian religion were declared or required in the Constitutions of the others....


Throughout its history, certain features of American life have been critically important, not only to people born and raised in the United States, but even more to others who heard about them. Many came to America. Many more longed to come because what they heard about America inspired them with a strong desire to live the American way....

To Support and Defend...Letter to the Beaufort Observer

By CCTA Member, Louis Call

“…….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;”. What powerful words; think about it for a minute."..support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic”.

What do you think our Forefathers had in mind when they wrote those words over two- hundred years ago? They certainly didn’t want our Constitution subverted by a handful of politicians with hidden agendas. Their agenda was the protection of our Freedoms and Liberties from all enemies, foreign and domestic as clearly stated when our elected representatives step forward, places his/her hand on the Bible and swears the Oath of Office. 

But something is about to change unless you and I step forward. As is the usual case, when a socialist administration is in power, they will use any crisis to attack our Constitution. They will use any excuse; clean air and water, energy efficiency, gun violence…..to gain more control over our lives. Can you name one person who doesn’t want clean air and water, more miles per gallon from your vehicle or protection from gun violence? The real question is, how do we get there.

The funerals had barely finished for those twenty children and six adults in Connecticut when the leftist media started on its crusade for more gun control.

Their goal, and that of some of our elected representatives, is the demise of the 2nd Amendment. I am not suggesting that it will be dissolved; just little bites taken out of it. That way they think we won’t notice; but we will.

The government has a long range plan to take care of you and I from womb to tomb. Private organizations aren’t part of the plan because they would have to give up some power if we suddenly decided to take personal responsibility for ourselves and be guided by personal initiative.

As an example the National Rifle Association has put forth and agreed to sponsor and support the National School Shield program under the direction of Asa Hutchinson. Space does not permit a full outline of this program but I suggest you Google NRA National School Shield for a full review. 

He is an example of what I mean when I say ‘little bites’. Senator Diane Feinstein’s (D-CA) legislation for a new ban would, among other things, redefine “assault weapons” . It would require current owners of such firearms to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act, and require forfeiture of the firearms upon the deaths of their current owners.

All liberals love this kind of stuff EXCEPT none of which will keep you safe in your homes, places of business or schools.

What it will really do is set the stage, in the future, for confiscation of firearms giving a hostile government the location of all registered firearms. Can’t happen in the good ole’ USA? Think again…its already happened in New Orleans after hurricane Katrina. Warrantless searches by The ‘Big Easy’ police department were used going door to door confiscating firearms under the guise of ‘an emergency’. A policing agency left law abiding citizens totally defenseless against looters. The police department was affectively sued in Court and required to return all firearms collected.

Today, more so than two hundred years ago, our Constitution is under attack from forces within our own government. It is facing a small but determined domestic enemy that views our Constitution as an impediment that must be subverted to achieve their agenda. If we allow this force of evil to succeed, our grandchildren will never know the Country you and I grew up in. From all those ‘little bites’ will come the ultimate loss of freedom and liberty will be just another word in the dictionary.

But there is something you can do. You can demand that our legislators adhere to our Constitution as it was written and that the rights of individuals are to be protected at all cost. Their authority over our Country comes from you and I. We will not tolerate that abdication of our Republic to a tyrannical regime and we will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; so help us God.

Obamacare: A death panel for the rule of law

NetRight Daily, December 16, 2013

Barack Obama is in a box: He repeatedly promised “if you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan,” but his socialized medicine monstrosity has cost millions of people their coverage. It’s also become painfully clear Obama knew this was going to happen as early as March 2010 — yet kept regurgitating his false promise.

Obamacare also has a bigger problem: As written, the law’s key mechanism for issuing subsidies to state exchanges is legally enforceable in only one third of the country — meaning the only way to pay for its nationwide dependency expansion is new deficit spending. This would clearly violate another oft-repeated Obama promise: That his law would not “add one dime” to the federal deficit (well, beyond the $6.2 trillion identified in this 2013 GAO report).
What’s an administration to do, right?

That’s easy: Change the law.

“As we implement this law, we have and will continue to make changes as needed,” senior administration official Valerie Jarrett wrote this summer.

And so Obama has shredded the Constitution in favor of the “Easy Button,” arbitrarily remaking entire sections of the health care law that deal with its employer mandate, its deductible and co-payment limits, its coverage requirements and — more disturbingly — its power to subsidize health insurance in more than thirty states.

Consider this: Obamacare itself contains 906 pages and approximately 380,000 words. But the regulations promulgated in support of the law total 10,535 pages and approximately 11,588,500 words.

U.S. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) hit the nail on the head earlier this year in responding to this systematic obliteration of our nation’s constitutionally prescribed separation of powers.
“The president doesn’t get to write legislation, and its illegal and unconstitutional for him to try and change legislation by himself,” Paul told Fox News.

The President’s Power to Wage War

Learn more about what the Constitution says about the President's powers!

Constitution Club
by Keith Broaders

If the President believes there is sufficient justification to invade another country, his action could appropriate or it could be a costly mistake. The decision to wage war should not be left for one man to decide.

The Constitution says that the President is the Commander in Chief when he is called into service by Congress. This means that he is not the Commander in Chief when he has not been called into service by a Congressional declaration of war.

Those that assume that the President has the authority to invade other nations without being authorized by Congress to do so are sadly mistaken.

Kerry Awards Vietnam With $17 Million to Fight Global Warming

On Memorial Day, May 31, 2004, Vietnam Vets for the Truth broke an extraordinary story about a photograph hanging in the Vietnamese Communist War Remnants Museum (formerly known as the “War Crimes Museum”) in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). 

The photograph, displayed in a room dedicated to foreign activists who contributed to the Communist victory over America in the Vietnam War, shows Senator John Kerry being greeted by Comrade Do Muoi, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam. Jeffrey M. Epstein of Vietnam Vets for the Truth acquired the photograph during the Memorial Day weekend in response to a general request for photographs and records detailing Kerry’s activities on behalf of the enemy.

Today Secretary of State John Kerry promised Vietnam $17 million to fight non-existent global warming.


The Most Expensive Senate Race of the Cycle — So Far

Hagan's re-election battle 1 of 4 Senate contests where outside spending has eclipsed $2M...

About halfway through the midterm election cycle, North Carolina is on pace to host the most expensive Senate race of 2014.

But the Tar Heel State shouldn’t necessarily get too comfortable in the top spot.

Democratic Sen. Kay Hagan’s re-election battle there is one of at least four Senate contests where outside spending has already eclipsed the $2 million mark. The others include the re-election races of Sens. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., Mary L. Landrieu, D-La., and Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.

The potential for Republicans to win back the Senate majority, combined with the media-market makeup of the competitive landscape, has invited a superfluity of early spending. Republicans need a net gain of six seats next year, and most of the competitive races are for Democrat-held seats in less populous states
