I read it and with it being out of context am not sure I understand it either. I wonder if helenejen could explain it to me. I sure hope so because, as I have told both of you, I love to talk with you two, and hope I can continue.

He spoke about the Founder's reluctance to allow a standing federal army preferring to place the responsiblity for defending the several states in the hands of the state militias. A navy did not pose the same concern since you can't overthrow the capital with a navy. This is the atmosphere of "paranoa" in which Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution was formed.

To raise and support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years;

To provide and maintain a navy;

LII: Constitution

The Founders knew that we had external enemies, but also internal ones.

As a nurse practitioner, it is unconscionable to see this level of hatred directed at a peaceable assembly of labor activists and their hosts," Lewis wrote."

I read it. I just don't happen to believe everything abortion providers accuse pro-lifers of doing.

Oh yeah, I heard that Paul Hill, a minister, and others like him were just figments of the imagination. Oh and atheists too!

Just make sure you pack those cameras and get pictures of their license plates if possible. The left wingers have been called out by hussein obama to hit back hard. Keep in mind we have no class Chigago thugs in the white house now.

The Unions have no reason to be at any healt care town hall because hussein obama is making sure they do not have to participate.

I've never personally witnessed any illegal forms of protest by any members of any pro-life organization. Perhaps you could provide some credible links.

Exclamation SEIU...Scary Oranisation! Look at their website

SEIU - Service Employees International Union


Look at the pictures on their website and see how the people look like they are under the influence of something...indoctrinated or worse...

In Europe Unions are not what this organisation is like. This is even more scary. I never heard of Union members going to meetings and beat up people not agreeing with them and a government calling out on people to join them and paying them to attend Town Hall meetings. I know some Unions in Europe would be loud and yelling and always trying people to go on strikes if they didn't get what they want. Many employees went on strikes untl the government decided that who ever went on a strike (since it happened almost on a daily or weekly base) wouldn't get paid if the person was on strike....it showed why most people went on a strike...getting money and not work, when the government changed it, hardly any one wanted to go on a strike!

Getting paid by a union is even worse...are these people their because they believe in the cause or is it because of the easy money...I guess I know the answer!

"Change that Works"

I dunno. Seems they should call it "Same that Works" as they're using the SAME tactics on black conservatives (aka Uncle Toms to the Obamatrons) as they do against scabs crossing picket lines.

Union workers (and non-Union ones too), In Euorpe, shut down the whole country when they have a issue.
(State workers bring France to halt with pensions protests - Europe, World - The Independent (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/state-workers-bring-france-to-halt-with-pensions-protests-593300.html - broken link) , http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...in-634745.html)

Nice try.
