Mike fires for effect

Mike Vanderboegh takes apart a "journalist" with the Washington Post, one Richard Cohen. Please go read his letter back to Mr. Cohen. The specific claim that piqued Mike's ire is that "healthy debate doesn't involve threat of guns.

Actually, I would agree if this was a debate. But it has ceased to be a debate and instead has become an attempt to ram a statist agenda down the throats of at least half the country against its will. Obama was elected by a 53% majority, which while it gives him the win, certainly was not a "mandate" to impose his agenda. In any case, the Constitution sets strict limits on what the government can do. The TEA parties, the 9-12 project, and the letters to Congressmen have been an attempt by those of us who wish to restore a Constitutional Republic to tell them to stop. This is not about left and right, nor about Democrat vs. Republican, but about our individual, natural rights. Indeed, while we argue policies, with substantive objections, they answer back with cries of racists, and accuse those of us who would like to see our grandchildren grow up in freedom of being kluxers.

Mike outlines what are, in effect, a train of abuses, and points to a line drawn in the sand, and says no farther. Apparently a lot of other people agree with him. I certainly do. If Mr. Cohen doesn't understand, I suggest he re-read the Declaration of Independence.
