HHS Secretary Napolitano is a national security risk

Jim Campbell of the FreeCanadaPress.com wrote an article, “Janet Napolitano is the wrong person for Secretary of Homeland Security,” which elaborates and supports the article that I just completed, “Hey, HHS Secretary Janet Napolitano: Scan This.” 

In Campbell's excellent article is an exceptional YouTube video of newly elected black conservative Congressman Allen West of Florida. Man, he tells it like it is. He will be a real leader in the upcoming 112^th Congress!

Here is an excerpt from the above mentioned article:

On November 10th, when the Council on American-Islamic Relations, (CAIR) issued a travel advisory that Muslim women may refuse the body scanners at airports because Muslim scholars have deemed that they violate Islamic law; it makes one wonder if the inmates are now in charge of the ‘Cuckoo’s Nest.’

Dems welcome “Newly-arrived asylum seekers”

“The Department of Homeland Security will now refer to illegal (aliens) immigrants as ‘newly arrived asylum seekers.’

And the illegals already here will now be called ‘newly registered Democratic voters!’

Displaying Patriotic Bumper Sticker Now Makes You a Terrorist Suspect?

I received an email from the Patriot Depot, which sells patriotic bumper stickers. i have posted a pictures of a few of their bumper stickers previously. The story below comes from the Patriot Depot and may be emblematic of what is happening under the current regime in Washington, D.C. and their Department of Homeland Security (DHS). What is happening is the stealing of average American's liberties.

The Department of Homeland Security Strikes Again
A Special Report by Archie Jones

"A customer service representative at The Patriot Depot just received a call from Rosemary in Ball, Louisiana alerting him that her brother-in-law was stopped by small town Louisiana police and detained by the roadside for half an hour. A background check was conducted to determine whether he was a member of an “extremist” group. Why? Her brother-in-law (name not disclosed for privacy) had purchased a conservative “Don’t Tread on Me” bumper sticker from The Patriot Depot and displayed it on his car.

"The bumper sticker is based on the famous flag designed by American Revolution era general and statesman Christopher Gadsden. The yellow flag featured a coiled diamondback rattlesnake ready to strike, with the slogan “Don’t Tread on Me!” underneath it. Benjamin Franklin helped make the rattlesnake a symbol of Americans’ reluctance to quarrel but vigilance and resolve in defense of their rights. By 1775 when Gadsden presented his flag to the commander-in-chief of the Navy, the rattlesnake was a symbol of the colonies and of their need to unite in defense of threats to their God-given and inherited rights.

"Today, the Gadsden flag is recognized as a national symbol of liberty and freedom from an oppressive government. The flag and the bumper sticker symbolize

· American patriotism,
· the need to defend Americans’ rights, and
· resistance to tyranny’s threats to American liberty.

"Those threats included—and include—

· illegal taxation,
· profanation of Americans’ rights, and
· violation of the fundamental principles of American law.

"The notorious Department of Homeland Security memo, which was apparently based on the infamous Missouri State Police Report that described supporters of presidential candidates Bob Barr, Ron Paul, and Chuck Baldwin as “militia”-type potential extremists and potential terrorists, is not the first effort of leftist radicals to slander their political opponents as “extremists.” Some observers have noted that similar “reports” emerged during the Clinton administration. But “liberals” and other leftists have been calling defenders of

· traditional American limited,
· constitutional government,
· free enterprise, and
· individual liberty

“extremists” since at least the 1964 election.

"The political left’s attempts to establish a false equivalence between genuine left wing extremists and those who oppose the left’s assault on our culture, law, and liberty is more than propaganda to fool the ignorant and manipulate public opinion. Combined with the power of government, it is an attempt to harass, intimidate, and silence all political opposition—and probably an attempt to demonize them as a prelude to governmental oppression and persecution. Keep in mind that the First Amendment states,

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

"Small town police misled by phony left wing “reports” are bad enough. Federal government agencies and their armed agents under the direction of leftist radicals are exponentially worse. They will tread on us. The time has come to let our voices be heard!"

The current party and people in control of the government seek centralization and power. They want to control every aspect of our lives. They think that they have the exclusive wisdom and plan to make the world a beater place. They are desperately wrong. As President Ronald Reagan said, the government is not the solution to our problems, it is the problem. That has not only been exemplified but exaggerated under the Soetoro a/k/a Obama administration. Unfortunately, it will only get worse as long as this man 'serves' the people the lie that bigger government is better government, that the government knows best . . .

Obama is Not For Civil Liberties

Most conservative Christians rightfully quote the first, second, and fourteenth amendments in objection to overbearing and unjust policies of government. But what about the fourth and fifth amendments?

The Fourth Amendment to the Constitution reads:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

The Fifth Amendment to the Constitution reads:

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 offence 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.



Since President Bush did everything he could to destroy our civil liberties, we are now in even more danger from having our rights taken away from us with the more emboldened Mr. Obama (illegitimately) in office. In the name of the “War on Terror” Bush has bequeathed the legal tools Obama needed to put Christians in jail and physically abuse them, in addition to the more traditional ways that liberals trample on our rights.



Everybody is complaining about Janet Napolitano, but she would not be the Secretary of the Department Homeland Security if hadn’t been for Bush. As reward for his loyalty to the Republican Party above the Constitution, the Bush creation of the DHS in November of 2002 was a political pat on the back for the pro-abortion, pro-gun control Pennsylvania Governor Tom Ridge. (May God grant Pat Toomey a victory over Ridge in the race for the Senate!) While taking away our guns, telling us seal our houses with plastic and keep bottles of water with bleach in it for drinking water in case of a terrorist attack, Tom Ridge didn’t make the “homeland” any more secure.

And what’s this? Obama is reversing himself on releasing photos of the Abu Ghraib abuse! Obama is even standing up to the ACLU on this one! (Even a broken clock is right twice a day, but not Obama!)
