There
has been an uprising against bullying in this country which I completely agree
with but we have missed the bullying of our Constitutional rights and the
blatant disregard for our Constitution by the elected Democrat and Republican
liberal politicians. This bullying stretches from the a small city elected
position to President Obama; they will lie, twist, and distort anything and
everything to limit your freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom
of religion. Before I say a thing, let’s take a look at exactly what the 1st
Amendment says and what our Founding Fathers said about the 1st
Amendment.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of
religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and
to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The
first area of the 1st Amendment is freedom of religion and the phrase; "no
law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof" is quite interesting because we now have a liberal Democrat mayor
in Houston
Texas throwing out a Christian petition
because she doesn't like it. She is a lesbian and it goes against her desires
so Annise Parker, the city’s first openly lesbian mayor, after passing a nondiscrimination
ordinance in the middle of the night allowing all bathrooms to be open to any
gender, people were upset. Many pastors started a petition to have it put on
the ballot for the people to vote on; but Ms. Parker is a liberal and doesn't
want the people to have a choice so she throughout the signatures. To add
insult to illegal actions and injury she, subpoena all pastors to turn over all
sermons and other pastoral communications dealing with homosexuality, gender
identity, or herself; this is as illegal as it comes but she is a liberal,
bullying is the liberals way and what they always do to get their way. Think
about it, the nondiscrimination ordinance she just passes, she just violated;
she just discriminate against religious people! What her and her liberal base
is trying to do is "to silence the church". I think Sen. Rand Paul said it the
best, Paul noted the First Amendment “doesn’t exist to keep religion out of
government.” “It exists to keep government out of religion.” You also have what
our Founding Fathers said.
Thomas
Paine
When
the government fears the people, it is liberty. When the people fear the
government, it is tyranny.
Too
many of our liberal politicians from both sides of the isle, from the president
to a city council member have bent, changed, and completely disregard the rule
of law and The US Constitution and our president and his US Attorney General
are the worst offenders; they have changed laws on the book which is illegal if
it doesn’t do back through congress for approval. Where are the Republicans,
they have a direct path to the Supreme Court to push back with but I guess they
need to grow a set first which is pointed out in another Founding Father quote
which hits the nail on the head.
Thomas
Paine
A
body of men holding themselves accountable to nobody ought not to be trusted by
anybody.
The second area covered in the 1st Amendment is
freedom of speech. I don't care if someone says the most hateful thing in the
world to you, it is covered under the 1st Amendment; this is how the
Westborough Baptist Church was able to spread so much hate; like it or not, it
was Constitutional. This is the same thing many liberals do; the only
difference is they don't want you to do it back to them. President Obama and the liberals from both
sides even passed an anti protest bill, H.R. 347,
benignly titled the Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act; you should
look and see if your congressman voted for it. This now Law prevents your right
to “petition
the Government for a redress of grievances”, and is a
federal offense, punishable by up to 10 years in prison; wait, it prevents what
the US Constitution says is our right? Yes, it circumvents the 1st
Amendment; do you still believe liberal politicians are not taking your rights?
I think three of our Founding Fathers hit it on the head especially Ben
Franklin.
George
Washington
“If freedom of
speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the
slaughter.”
James Madison
“I believe there
are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual
and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden
usurpations.”
Benjamin
Franklin
Whoever would
overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of
speech.”
The last area of the 1st Amendment is freedom
of the press and even though today the press is so biased in their reporting,
it is still a freedom and a right; but what did the Founding Fathers say?
Thomas
Jefferson
"Our
liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without
being lost."
Where
the press is free and every man able to read, all is safe
Samuel
Adams
“There
is nothing so fretting and vexatious, nothing so justly TERRIBLE
to tyrants, and their tools and abettors, as a FREE PRESS.”
The
news organizations are not suppose to be political but keep an eye on the
politicians from both side; unfortunately it isn't being done today and most
news outlets are nothing but political. The press is suppose to be the watching
eye of the nation, but the majority of our press are far left leaning liberals
which are helping to destroy our by not reporting the truth and being the watch
dog for which freedom of the press was granted. President Obama and his
administration has limited the
press, dozens
of news organizations are protesting the White House restrictions of
journalists taking pictures and video of President Obama. Press groups urged
members to stop using official photos and video supplied by the White House
calling them "government propaganda." I have to give the very bias liberal
press kudos on this one because they balked at the idea and did what was right;
unfortunately they don't do what is right often enough.
