How did your Kentucky Legislator Vote? Commentaries by:
“[State controlled] education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.” – Joseph Stalin
"[I]f you serve a child a rotten hamburger in America, federal, state, and local agencies will investigate you, summon you, close you down, whatever. But if you provide a child with a rotten education, nothing happens, except that you're liable to be given more money to do it with." --Ronald Reagan
“Give me four
years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be
uprooted.” - Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870-1924) |
"What is a 'moderate' judge? One who gives opinions half way between what the Constitution actually says and what they'd like it to say? ---Justice Antonin Scalia (Click on the title of an article to read the whole article.) Some Thoughts on Civil Disobedience, Diversity, Sex Education, and A Bridge To Nowhere By Theresa Fritz Camoriano 1. Civil Disobedience – On the same day that I was reading about the funeral of Rosa Parks, there was an article about a woman who recently had been groped by an airport screener and who groped back, asking the screener how she liked it! Of course, the woman was arrested, convicted, and fined $2,000 for daring to stand up for herself. Three cheers for that woman! She is like a modern day Rosa Parks, ...
Veto the VET Has Many People To Thank For Its Success By Larry Brown Veto the Vet would like to thank Governor Ernie Fletcher and the Cabinet of the Environment for their dedicated work to achieve what many thought impossible in SJR 3, ending tailpipe testing in Northern Kentucky. Previous groups had attempted through Governor Patton’s administration to end this needless test, but received resistance and no assistance. This governor and the Environmental Cabinet began assisting us from the beginning. ...
When your home becomes another's castle By Henry Lamb The American dream that has motivated generations is the hope of owning a home, a sanctuary where the family is safe and the future secure. Millions of people who have scrimped and saved to realize this dream are now faced with a nightmare as sustainable development is imposed upon them....
THE BUS STOPS HERE: ROSA PARKS AND THE CIVIL RIGHTS LEGACY by Rod D. Martin, 31 October 2005 http://www.theVanguard.org Picture this: It's the evening rush hour, the buses are packed, and there aren't enough seats to go around. So who sits and who stands?....
Our SCOTUS and our DOMESTIC ENEMIES---the anchor and rudder of our constitutional system! John William Kurowski The discussion concerning the nomination to the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) exposes and brings to light the fact that we have extremists in our society--- left wing militants and right wing militants, who ought to be viewed as domestic enemies of our constitutional system!.....
*The Second Term Curse.* By Justin Darr In 1797, George Washington quietly returned to his Mount Vernon home after completing his second term as President of the United States. Washington easily could have been elected for a third term; however, he chose to step aside quietly, creating the tradition of American Presidents serving only twice in office....
Terry’s Tidbits November 7, 2005 Terry Gray Is it Time Yet? In 1996 Claire Wolfe wrote the words, “America is at that awkward stage. It’s too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards.” She was making reference to the destroyers of our country....
America's First Female President By Jonathan David Morris For many years, Americans have wondered what it would be like to have a female president. This fall, ABC decided to answer that question by installing Geena Davis in the White House as President Mackenzie Allen in the new fall drama, Commander In Chief. Ostensibly, this is a show that’s supposed to make women feel good about themselves. ...
A Strange Land By Andrea Camoriano Chapter 2 Andwan immediately called her friends – family – teammates in the intensely-bonded sense it took a Minstrel to understand – together in an effort to stay calm. Even when no one knew where they were or how they’d gotten there, theirs was still a group used to working together under any and all conditions. If anybody could get out of this, it was the Time Teens. ....
"The Left...offers an appeal to moral virtue: It's better to pay more in taxes and to share the burdens as a community. It's kinder, gentler, more compassionate, more equitable. Unfortunately, as recent European election results demonstrate, nothing makes a citizen more selfish than socially equitable communitarianism: Once a fellow's enjoying the fruits of government health care and all the rest, he couldn't give a hoot about the broader societal interest; he's got his, and if it's going to bankrupt the state a generation hence, well, as long as they can keep the checks coming till he's dead, it's fine by him. 'Social democracy' is, in that sense, explicitly anti-social." ---Mark Steyn

"A judicial conservative is not necessarily politically conservative, but believes in sticking to the actual Constitution as it was understood by those who made it law rather than amending the Constitution from the bench... A candidate who does that is not a right-wing extremist."---Robert Bork
The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient warrant. — John Stuart Mill
