Civil rights? What Civil Rights???

When you walk into the door of the airport, be advised that the Constitution and Bill of Rights no longer apply. The airport is only the begining of the New World Order/Police State that we are becoming right before our very eyes.

The most disturbing part is that only about half of Americans are concerned enough to take action. According to a new Zogby poll, only 48% of potential voters said that they would seek alternative travel methods in avoidance of the Big Sis groping and virtual strip searches. 61% said they oppose the new policies, but air travel was up 3% this Thanksgiving, so even people that oppose it are still flying anyway.

The latest humiliation story involves a woman that reported that she was subjected to a more invasive pat down search after the body scan revealed her pantyliner... No, this is not a joke. Apparently, feminine hygene products can be confused with or mistaken for some breach of homeland security.


There are even a large number of people publicly defending and even advocating this surrender of your rights! I can't count the number of comments to articles that suggest that anyone that opposes the TSA fondling/virtual strip search should simply not fly. There is no Constitutional Right to fly, so the pro-TSA crowd thinks I should not fly if I want to protect my Constitutional Protection against an unwarranted search.

I think the people that should stop flying are the paranoid people that think we should all surrender our rights at the gate. Big Sis is already hinting that boats, trains and subways are next. If you think that every person should be strip searched and/or felt up in order to get on a plane, don't fly.

Frankly, if you really believe this is necessary for your safety, then don't fly until they are strip searching EVERYONE and conducting FULL BODY CAVITY searches; because the planes are not any safer today than they were two months ago. Anyone that has worked in law enforcement will tell you that the current TSA policy has so many holes in it that it approaches meaninglessness. In fact, I would suggest that is makes you less safe because they are so busy searching everyone that has had a hip or knee replacement that they will miss the real terrorists.

I am back and uber-angry!!! TSA....

I am happy to return to resume my ranting. I have been out of pocket because... frankly, everything this administration has done gives me a headache and miserable!

However, it is time to resume the fight!!! They are completely ignoring the Constitution of the United States!

I do not fly often, but had hoped to eventually go to Australia, Isreal and had existing plans to return to Maui every ten years with my husband for our 20th, 30th, 40th, etc... anniversaries! Hoped to visit family in Maryland and Pennsylvania in the next year or so.. NOT NOW!

I am sure that by now you have all heard about the new TSA policies on the backscatter and pat-downs. Anyone that sets off the regular metal detector or any of the people selected for the random search is asked to go through the backscatter x-ray; which is a virtual strip search. Now before you get your panties all in a wad, you can "opt-out" of the strip search, but then you just volunteered for a very invasive "pat down". The pat down includes fondling your breasts or testicles (which ever is applicable).

Now if that isn't enough to make you head explode, this will. Everybody that has had knee replacements, or any other surgical procedure that required metal to permanently placed in the body sets off the metal detectors. SOOOOO TSA is spending all their time patting down elderly people and Veterans. Nice huh?? There have been several horror stories pop out one by one. A picture of a four year old little boy being strip searched, a man whose clostomy bag was spilled on him, a flight attendant that was instructed to remove her prosthetic breast that she uses because she is a breast cancer survivor, etc... These are just a few examples of TSA abuses and these are probably the worst of them, so far...

I can, without trying, think of about five ways to get around this crap, but I won't share them online. My point is that this is not making anyone safer. It merely gives the appearance of trying to have security, but in reality it doesn't. The terrorists are watching the news and they simply adjust their plans of attack to counter our counter-terrorism measures.

Call your Senators and Representatives!! This is a Constitutional Issue and don't let anyone tell you it is not. Remind the politicians that this is the United States, not Russia and that they all swore anoath to uphold the Constitution!

"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."

Clarification

I received a comment about the previous post that seemed to be reading too much into the last post with regard to the wording in the first principal - America is good.

Let me be clear about this - first - I copied the list from the Glenn Beck website to share his information about the 9/12 Project with ya'll. Second, I do believe that in general America is good. I do not have blind faith in or worship the American government or any politicians whatsoever!!

I believe in the principals this country was built on and am grateful that I live in a country that allows me to express my opinion without fear of arrest or public flogging for disagreeing with Obama. I am grateful that I live in a country that allows me to worship Jesus Christ and does not force me to follow something else. My worship is reserved for my Father in Heaven - not for men, government or possessions. I have tried to keep this blog less about religion and more about the direction our country is taking. I know that not everyone shares my faith in Jesus, but all that live in America are effected by the American Government. That is what this blog is about.

People that have been following this blog know that I have been pulling my hair out about our government and are not likely to think I have blind faith in the government or America - but perhaps new people might think otherwise. Sooo, I just wanted to make sure that my position is clear for everyone reading. I promise to try and be more cognizant that not everyone has read more than the most recent post.

912

I am waiting to hear from the Glenn beck staff about starting a 912 Project group in my area. For those not familiar, the 9/12 project was founded by Glenn Beck.

Nine stands for the 9 principals we agree to stand on:
1. America Is Good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.
God “The propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven itself has ordained.” from George Washington’s first Inaugural address.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.
Honesty “I hope that I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider to be the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.” George Washington

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.
Marriage/Family “It is in the love of one’s family only that heartfelt happiness is known. By a law of our nature, we cannot be happy without the endearing connections of a family.” Thomas Jefferson

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.
Justice “I deem one of the essential principles of our government… equal and exact justice to all men of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political.” Thomas Jefferson

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.
Life, Liberty, & The Pursuit of Happiness “Everyone has a natural right to choose that vocation in life which he thinks most likely to give him comfortable subsistence.” Thomas Jefferson

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.
Charity “It is not everyone who asketh that deserveth charity; all however, are worth of the inquiry or the deserving may suffer.” George Washington

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.
On your right to disagree “In a free and republican government, you cannot restrain the voice of the multitude; every man will speak as he thinks, or more properly without thinking.” George Washington

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
Who works for whom? “I consider the people who constitute a society or a nation as the source of all authority in that nation.” Thomas Jefferson

There are Twelve VALUES we share:
The 12 Values
* Honesty
* Reverence
* Hope
* Thrift
* Humility
* Charity
* Sincerity
* Moderation
* Hard Work
* Courage
* Personal Responsibility
* Gratitude

People across the country are coming together to unite and say ENOUGH! If you agree with these principles and values, join me in this fight and start a group in your area. This can be achieved through the Glenn Beck website.

The Dems have gained control by beating the pavement and recruiting people not wise enough to see the lunacy being force fed to the American public. It is up to us to take counter measures and fight for our country.

Texas Tea Parties!!

YEEEHAAAW! People in Denton, Texas are mad as hell and still polite as they can be about it!! The Tea Party in Denton was a huge success as were the other Tea Parties across the country! I wanted to share my photos with ya'll and encourage you to check around to see if any other events are popping up. I am aware that there may be a second protest in Sherman, Texas on the 4TH of July. Check out what was happening in Denton on tax day.

















On tax day the Department of Homeland Security issued a report about terrorist activity in the US: however, the terrorists that Janet Nepolitano was referring to include: opponents of ILLEGAL immigration, abortion opponents and VETERANS!! Of course, she has since issued an insincere apology. That makes it okay...

WOW! I am a terrorist under the DHS definition!

Does this mean they are TERRIFIED? of US??

COOL! WE DIDN"T EVEN HAVE TO BLOW ANYBODY UP!!

Plus, The LA Times categorized Tea Party participants as "STEEPED IN INSANITY"; the Washington Post called us "nutjobs" and a CNN remote correspondant covering the Chicago Tea Party said that it was "not family viewing" and threw it back to NY because she was being called out on her refusal to allow a man to finish his sentence when asked why he was there and the issue of her arguing the Obama talking points with they guy. Since when do "reporters" argue with the man on the street??

I just consider the source of the name calling and - you know - it encourages me!! It means that they are unable to keep ignoring us and are afraid that we may succeed in drawing attention to the REAL insanity. People that have not been paying attention are starting to notice the problems and the runaway train of irresponsible spending. People are starting to notice that Congress is trying to side step the Constitution in their attempt to federalize EVERYTHING.

Why is removing tattoos on LA gang members a federal taxpayer responsibility??

How did smelly pigs in Iowa become the responsibility of Texas and Tennessee??

Why is Georgia expected to pay for the Miami Orange Bowl parking upgrade??

How did Virginia and Maryland get put on the hook for a museum dedicated to the mafia??

Check around your community for events and groups organizing to fight the shift to socialism and the federal take over issues granted to the States by the CONSTITUTION.

Email me with any pics from other Tea Parties and info of future events!
