Eric Holder Tries To Spank Kansas

Eric Holder Tries To Spank Kansas

I love it when Bambam’s pit bull poodle get’s off his leash. He sent a snotty letter to Kansas Governor Sam Brownback claiming the law they just passed to bar feds from enforcing gun laws is unconstitutional and they would sue to prove it. But like many of Obama’s hench men, he forgets that the federal law itself is unconstitutional thus making any action by Federal Agents quite lame and a crime. After Fast & Furious, what makes him think he deserves any respect.

A new law in Kansas that criminalizes the enforcement of federal gun controls in the state is unconstitutional, Attorney General Eric H. Holder said.

“In purporting to override federal law and to criminalize the official acts of federal officers, [the law] directly conflicts with federal law and is therefore unconstitutional,” Mr. Holder wrote to Gov. Sam Brownback in a letter dated April 26. “Federal officers who are responsible for enforcing federal laws and regulations in order to maintain public safety cannot be forced to choose between the risk of a criminal prosecution by a state and the continued performance of their federal duties.”

Mr. Holder cites the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, which says federal law trumps conflicting state authority or exercise of power. Kansas’s law became effective April 25.

Mr. Holder wrote that federal authorities “will continue to execute their duties to enforce all federal firearms laws and regulations. Moreover, the United States will take all appropriate action, including litigation if necessary, to prevent the State of Kansas from interfering with the activities of federal officials enforcing federal law.” Read more here at The Gateway Pundit

Does Holder have a leg to stand on? Not according to The Tenth Amendment Center.

1. Kansas is NOT purporting to criminalize the exercise of constitutional federal responsibilities.  On the contrary, the bill criminalizes what the state has determined is unconstitutional.   It is the position that such federal acts are indeed a violation of the Constitution.  No matter how much Eric might believe it to be otherwise, his view is obviously not universal – especially in Kansas.

2. The Supremacy Clause.  Holder takes the position that all tyrants do – that everything they do is authorized, anything to the contrary – worthless.  But Holder is wrong.  The Supremacy Clause doesn’t say that “any law in conflict with federal law” is void.  It says that only those laws “in pursuance” of the constitution are supreme.  The new Kansas legislation, again, takes the position that such federal acts are not constitutional, and therefore not supreme.

37 Years Ago Today – We Need Another Hero

37 Years Ago Today – We Need Another Hero

 “37 years ago today, two protestors attempted to burn an American flag in the outfield of Dodger Stadium. A baseball player by the name of Rick Monday of the Chicago Cubs rushed over and grabbed the flag to thunderous cheers.

The two protestors were arrested and Monday received a standing ovation from the LA crowd when he came to bat. He was later quoted saying, “If you’re going to burn the flag, don’t do it around me. I’ve been to too many veterans’ hospitals and seen too many broken bodies of guys who tried to protect it.”

We could use a few million Rick Mondays right now.

Liberal Utopia, As Described By A Liberal

Liberal Utopia, As Described By A Liberal

Liberals are idiots, and this particular writer is as useful an idiot as they come. I got it from Ace and you can get to the link here. I choose not to link to liberal sites, gives them way to much encouragement. A Mr. Lee Siegel’s perfect America, without those pesky red states of course.

…Just think what America would look like without its mostly Southern states. (We could retain “America”: they could call themselves “Smith & Wesson” or “Coca-Cola” or something like that.) Universal health care. No guns. Strong unions. A humane minimum wage. A humane immigration policy. High revenues from a fair tax structure. A massive public-works program. Legal gay marriage. A ban on carbon emissions. Electric cars. Stronger workplace protections. Extended family leave from work in case of pregnancy or illness. Longer unemployment benefits. In short, a society on a par with most of the rest of the industrialized world-a place whose politics have finally caught up with its social and economic realities.

 

I am trying to figure out who works after the extended family leave, the longer unemployment benefits…oh wait, humane immigration, the immigrants will do the work at the massive public works program. And the unions will have no problem with the universal health care, and businesses will stick around to pay those “fair taxes” and humane minimum wages.  Unbelievable.

Professional Sport Now Has Gay Athlete..Whoopie

Professional Sport Now Has Gay Athlete..Whoopie

I have left this alone because I really did not care. I don’t beleive in homosexuality as a lifestyle nor do I think it is good for a community, any community. That being said, I don’t agree with alot of things that other people do, but this is a free country and whatever happens in their life is up to them, as long as they don’t shove their lifestyle in your face.

I am a sports fan and have been listening to sports radio fawning all over Jason Collins decision to come out. The buzz words they keep saying is “society has evolved” to a point where we, as a country, now accept gays. Ok I’ll play along, now tell me how society evolved? Is it because Hollywood has embraced being gay, or liberals love gay people? Or is it because our children have been taught in school to be tolerant of sexual preference? So how did we get here? I would assume all of the above.

I personaly find homosexuality to be perverse. The flamboyant queer nation bears this out, just google image San Francisco gay parade, be warned it is not a pretty site. Now can you see your son or grandson involved in that activity? I am not gonna bible thump here I just think this is not normal behavior, and as we continue to accept it we skew what normal is. Do you want gay couple Bob and Ted coaching your sons little league team? Do you really want Bob and Ted taking your sons camping as Boy Scout leaders? Do you want Bob and Ted in your sons jr. high or high school locker room? I am not trying to be blind to the fact there is a large percentage of gay people in the country, probably more than I would like to admit, what worries me is that once this lifetsyle is completely accepted and gay marriage is the law of the land the moral fiber of this country is being chipped away from another angle.

America is having a hard enough time trying to keep people married. Fifty percent of marriage now ends in divorce, our “old normal” of Mom and Dad married for 50 years is becoming a lost concept.
Now, Dad pays child support to keep Mom and her new boyfriend in your old home. Mom and Dad both work full time and we are forced to have our children raised by our educators. That is a scary notion in and of itself. In a perfect world Mom and Dad taught morals, led by example, and ruled with a firm hand. Tough love was a teaching lesson, not abuse. The old days are slipping away and I will most assuredly miss them.

The new normal for kids….survival.
Kids in America understand joint custody, drugs, booze, internet porn, college loans, green is good, polar bears are in trouble, and of course being gay is OK.
And that is sad.

 

The Border Bluff

The Border Bluff

What a damn embarrassment our elected officials. Getting elected/re-elected is the ONLY thing they are concerned about.

The US government does not want a border fence built; the political class does not want a border fence built; the media class, virtually indistinguishable from the political class, does not want a border fence built.
On the other hand, 75% of the public does want a border fence built.
Obviously, the political/media class wins, as usual.
Even if a law required building a fence — set specific requirements of how many feet of fencing must be constructed per month — the government would not build it. They would spend endless hours pretending to “plan” the fence or study it for environmental impacts.
So that’s what they’d do if the law says that a fence has to be built.
What will they do if the law doesn’t even require a fence, but only the development of a “Fencing Strategy”?

Bear in mind, “no fence at all” is a perfectly allowable option in the range of possible “Fencing strategies” one might develop.

The whole thing is a con to deliver amnesty but convince people it’s not amnesty. And as many have said, the public would be willing to entertain the possibility of a mass-amnesty contingent on real border enforcement, including a fence. But the amnestias simply refuse that.
They are committed to the same position they’ve always held, Amnesty Forever and Amnesty Only.

A Nod to Ace over Ace of Spades for the story

Waste Of Taxpayers Money For Boston Terrorist

Waste Of Taxpayers Money For Boston Terrorist

Total bullshit. If he had been an “Enemy Combatant” it goes military, now he gets a tax payer funded liberal lawyer….good God what have we become?

Elite defense lawyer Judy Clark, who last defended Jared Loughner, will be assigned to defend Djohar Tsarnaev in preparation for a death penalty trial.  Clark will be paid by taxpayers.

A Nod to Weasel Zippers for the heads up. 

Jared Loughners lawyer, disgusting!
 

Artist rendition certainly does her justice, to bad justice may be blind in a bad way.
