NAVIGATING THIS BLOG


Posts (dated articles with a feature that allows for comments from readers) are below the front page.

Same with links to other websites, videos and blog archives. They are on the right side of the blog where opposite posts in a narrow column.

SCROLL DOWN if you want to research or get sources. Use the "labels" feature and simply click on the topic or person that interests you. An idiosyncracy of this format is that whenever you click on a label or older post, you will again see the front page. Nothing we can do about that.

The Oath of the President of the United States


US Constitution, Article II, Section 1


Before he enter on the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."


The case could be made that Obama has violated the oath of the office of the Presidency of the United States in not closing the borders at the threat of a global pandemic of the Mexican flu, the violations of the U.S. Constitution in the CIFTA, and his refusal to clarify the circumstances of his birth. Think about it.

PROTECT AMERICA'S WILDLIFE ACT of 2007














* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Compare the sizes on the animals in these two pictures. The picture on the left is of 200+lb. wolf shot in Idaho. The picture is copied to this blog from the SAVE OUR ELK website. The picture on the right is of Rep. George Miller's (CA) photo-op, announcing the Protect American's Wildlife Act. Note the placement of individuals and a much smaller animal, probably 50 lbs. max, which is probably a hybrid wolf-dog. The only woman in the picture is holding the 'wolf's' leash. Check out the guy behind Miller...talk about a defensive posture. Point being...the wolf the man is holding up in the left picture is a much larger animal, 4X, that of the animal in the picture on the right. We would love to meet the person who could put a leash on a 200+ lb. wolf that was not habituized to humans.
