Arizona And “Anchor Babies”: New Challenge To The Constitution!

Arizona, already rapidly gaining the image of being the new “Mississippi of the 1960s” is now considering another step in the direction of discrimination! ๐Ÿ™

Against the United States Constitution’s guarantee that anyone born in the country is a citizen at birth, the state plans to disallow citizenship to children born of “illegal” immigrants, those often called “anchor babies”!

This would be a method to enable, in a more easy fashion, to deport “illegal” immigrants, as the argument that their children are American citizens would be ended!

But it would be in violation of the Constitution that these anti immigrant nativists claim to honor and worship! It would be the height of hypocrisy, but what else is new? ๐Ÿ™

Rand Paul As An Ophthalmologist: Can You Trust His Expertise?

Rand Paul, the Tea Party Movement advocate and Republican candidate for the US Senate in Kentucky, is an ophthalmologist who has not been certified by the national organization, the American Board of Ophthalmology!

Instead, Paul formed an organization in 1997, called the National Board of Ophthalmology, as a rival group and is certified, therefore, by the group he created!

This rings an alarm bell, as one has to wonder if Rand Paul is really meeting the standards of his profession, if he refuses to work within the established group of eye specialists!

Does anyone want to have a person being responsible for his vision who is a rebel and is not accepted by the establishment organization in his field?

Rand Paul claims that his ability to make a living is being compromised by the revelation of what he did back in 1997, and continues to do, which is to defy the national organization in his specialty!

But more important than how it affects Rand Paul’s livelihood is how his activities affect the health and safety of his patients!

At the least, it should be troubling and cause doubt in any intelligent person’s mind!

This is true not only of Rand Paul as a ophthalmologist, but also continues to make one wonder about his qualifications to be a United States Senator from Kentucky!

What Sharron Angle And Rick Barber Share: Belief In Armed Insurrection! :(

Sharron Angle is the GOP nominee for Senator in Nevada, but who is Rick Barber?

It turns out that he is in a runoff for the Republican nomination for a Congressional seat in the Second District of Alabama.

So you might say, why is his name being brought up alongside Senate nominee Sharron Angle?

It turns out both of them have advocated armed insurrection, using the Second Amendment, with Angle stating such in January, and Rick Barber stating it this week in a commercial, appealing to the voters of his congressional district, using actors dressed up as the Founding Fathers to make his point! ๐Ÿ™

Is this acceptable speech and advocacy, to promote an armed insurrection against our government? ๐Ÿ™

Is our government a threat such as that under Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao, or Fidel Castro? ๐Ÿ™

If one thinks that, then that person should be committed to a mental institution as a dangerous lunatic, as that is certainly NOT the case! ๐Ÿ™

Unfortunately, there may be a small percentage of our nation which actually believes this drivel! ๐Ÿ™

One thing is clear: It is necessary for the media to report this nutty and dangerous advocacy, and for the people who are sane and rational to make certain such characters as Sharron Angle and Rick Barber are defeated in their quest to become part of our government! ๐Ÿ™
