Big government is a Goliath to fear

Martin Niemöller reminded us why big government is a thing to fear

A 10-year-old girl with cystic fibrosis has given us a snapshot into the brave new world of big government and why we should fear it.

The parents of Sarah Murnaghan asked to put her on an adult waiting list for a lung transplant, but health authorities said she wasn’t 12, the minimum age. It took a court order amid public outrage to reverse what amounted to a death sentence.

Contrast this with the government’s waiving all rules when a major Democratic donor with cancer wanted access to a new drug that the Federal Drug Administration was years away from approving.

Eric Holder flops

Eric Holder, the Teflon Consigliere

Eric Holder treated his friends in the media abominably over the last several months. So he tried to make it up to them with a private party. He might have known that more than half of them would never want to be alone with him behind a closed door ever again. And that’s exactly what they told him.

Sheriff: last line of defense

Your local sheriff might be all that stands between you and a coup d'état.

By law, the sheriff is Chief Law Enforcement Officer of your County and answers only to you, the people who elected him. The sheriff is under no obligation to adhere to any unconstitutional law instituted by the state or federal government. In short, he is the last line of defense against an overreaching government.

Lois Lerner takes the Fifth

The Constitution. Did Lois Lerner waive her rights under this document?

Lois Lerner, the IRS official in charge of vetting tax-exemption applications, pleaded the Fifth Amendment yesterday. Besides botching her taking of the Fifth, she displayed an arrogant – and hypocritical – attitude.

Kermit Gosnell convicted of murder

Margaret Sanger would approve of Kermit Gosnell

A jury has just convicted Kermit Gosnell, MD, the infamous Philadelphia abortionist, of murder in the first degree on three counts. Each of these counts involves a baby that was more than 24 weeks along.

Benghazi: politics or crime?

Obama now reaps what he has sown

In light of this past week’s Congressional hearings relating to the Benghazi coverup and the death of American citizens, allegations of political manipulation of information have become moot. It is clear now that the factual altering of information slithering out from the Obama administration was not the result of fear of being ousted from the Presidency, but fear of being remanded to the penitentiary.

Obama invokes God?

In loving memory of the innocent victims of abortion

Can you believe Obama actually said this?

As long as we’ve got to fight to make sure women have access to quality, affordable health care, and as long as we’ve got to fight to protect a woman’s right to make her own choices about her own health, I want you to know that you’ve also got a president who’s going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way. Thank you, Planned Parenthood. God bless you.

Kermit Gosnell: logical end of abortion

In loving memory of the innocent victims of abortion

Kermit Gosnell, MD, is today’s poster boy for abortion. Wanted poster, that is. Wanted for practicing his trade in the foulest way anyone can remember seeing. Wanted for running a slaughterhouse out of a 1960s horror movie.

Education Reform: Think Outside the Box

Education reform: is it impossible?

Those involved in the tea party movement sing the song of limited government but continually seek to remedy of loss of liberties through pushing for more legislation. We cannot have limited government if We the People do not step up to the plate to figure out solutions to our problems independent of government intervention. This is especially true of education reform.

Eric Holder, repeat offender

Eric Holder, the Teflon Consigliere

Is this where Eric Holder wants to go?

Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear. – Harry Truman, in a speech opposing communism

Attorney General Eric Holder has again shown his true colors – his disdain for America and her laws. Recently, he took action against the German Romeike family, which is seeking asylum in the United States after being forced to flee the country or risk losing their five children to the German government. Germany was attempting to force the Romeikes to put their children in public school against their religious beliefs in a terrifying repeat of history.
