Never, Ever, Hillary. Ever.

It is unbelievable to me that anyone could vote for Hillary.  She is unquestionably the most corrupt politician we have ever seen.  Lies flow from her every time she opens her mouth.

I could not believe she is still pedaling that nonsense about her emails last week with Chris Wallace.

Just because the director of the FBI was a coward in not bringing charges against her does not absolve her of the fact that he laid out a play-by-play of why she was completely guilty.  There is no doubt under 18 U. S Code and 793 subsection f.

Yet she insists she did nothing wrong, it was someone else’s fault and she could not, as Secretary of State, distinguish if information in emails was classified or not. O, and spare me the intent B.S.

Such crap and nonsense.  Yet people still support her and would vote for her as President.

Listen, Bill and Hillary are a unit. You elect one you get them both.  And don’t forget, Bill, despite his other short-comings (cough-rape charge-cough) is only the 2nd President to ever be impeached.  Obstruction of justice.  Go figure.

So here is a short list of scandals that we have been subjected to over the years with HRC and Bill:

-Email server – Treason

-Benghazi – Lies, Lies, Lies, Lies and more Lies.

-Huma – trusted adviser tied to Muslim Brotherhood – Yikes!

-Boznia sniper fire – Lie

-Speaking fees – Pay to play with the Secretary and former and possible future President.  Look we have all heard her at some point, would you pay to hear that?  Well some do, they earned $153 million from 2001 to 2015. Ugh!

-Clinton Foundation – More pay to play

-Uranium to Russians – Her role in this security risk is unbelievable

-Haung, Trie, Chung – Illegal campaign contributions from foreign sources

-Renting the Lincoln bedroom out – Seriously

-Selling seats on Commerce Department International Trade missions – Show me the money and someone died

-Subpoenaed Rose Law firm records – Lost and then found in the White House. Hmmm

-Vince Foster and his missing files – Oops. Suicide and office files stolen.

-Filegate – FBI files on political enemies found way to HRC.

-Whitewater – Real Estate swindle and fund raiser

-Travelgate – Friends with benefits again.

-Cattle futures – This one is too funny. Read one article in WSJ on commodity trading and was then able over 10 months to turn $1,000 into $99,500 or an increase of 10,000%.  Really?  What does she need to be President for?

So all of that is just background.  Google it for yourself if you want.

And this dynamic duo wants to rule us all like a ring? And you would vote for that?

See you later 2nd amendment. Hello higher taxes.  Good-bye Liberty.  Nice to see you Tyranny.

We have a big problem here people. What are we going to do?  Think about it!

100 Plus Years of Crap – Part II

The beginning.

The Declaration of Independence , July 4, 1776

These were troubled times.  The colonies were under a lot of pressure from the King of England and the leaders in America had had enough.  So they wrote a document to make their case as to why it was necessary “…to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another…”

They recognized that  “Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God” entitled them to a “separate and equal station” in the world.  That there were self-evident truths: “…that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness…”.  The Declaration goes on to say, “That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…”.

They said all of this and more a lot better than I can so you should go read it yourself.

This document set the tone and the foundation for the Constitution which would come later. They understood that there is a power higher than man and that each of us, all individuals, have rights that no government can take away.

They also said governments are created to secure these rights, but only by the consent of the governed.  Why?

These were men that were students of history.  They had read the philosophers of the Enlightenment and had studied the world’s governments up to that time.  They understood that individuals have unique points of view, needs and ambitions.  They also knew when societies come together, that these unalienable rights of individuals would come into conflict.  It’s human nature.

Governments, generally,  are meant to assist in conflict resolution but in order to do so, power must be transferred to them and laws made.

Society needs to have clear rules formulated so that everyone understands what conflicts are and what the consequences will be if the law is violated. This is especially important when you consider an individual’s unalienable right to Life.  An individual’s body is the most basic form of property, and clearly defined rules around property are essential for individuals to live together in society.

So why am I harping on all of this Declaration stuff?

If you don’t believe in a higher power there is no power above government.

If you don’t believe in unalienable rights, then all rights are arbitrary and are provided to you by the government (or not provided as they deem fit).

If you don’t believe that all individuals were created equally then government’s help is needed.

If you don’t believe that governments are instituted from the consent of the governed, then governments are instituted without the governed’s consent.

If you don’t believe in government’s role to protect your property with clearly defined laws, your laws won’t be clearly defined, the consequences of breaking them will be capricious and your property won’t be safe.

A slippery slope is started that will slide you all the way to the Democratic National Convention.

But we are not done yet.
