Long time ago , GEORGE CARLIN , has a great piece about , --- HOW WHEN THE WORDS ARE CHANGED AND THE POWERS GET PEOPLE TO USE THE NEW TERMS , they control the debate !

My supervisor is very good at this a real CORP, GUY , Each week we hear new terms , Like , FILTER UP , LATERAL INVOLVEMENT , REACH OUT,

We hear daily by the powers to be about " making an investment " What that really means is LETS SPEND MORE , but it sound better

Before you leave just consider this , The pending bill is called something like , THE PUBLIC SAFETY and FIREARMS EDUCATION ACT

Now when the whole thing started it was call GUN CONTROL , So we change the name to get better acceptance

ANOTHER point LETS STOP CALLING IT " The Second Amendment " has no about as much meaning as saying " page 5 , subsection 2 "

ITS THE BILL OF RIGHTS , if that term is used alot more people would be concerned

Just my 2 cents

OK, BOR is just PART of the US CONSTITUTION; gonna just "pick 'n choose" what YOU want...? Like a Country Cookin' Buffet...?
 

KGC -- I was just pointing out that - When people hear that this is an attack on the 2ND Amendment , They just think weapons ---- If the 2nd can be changed or laws made to weaken it , in some peoples mind thats OK ---- So what if someone decides that the Freedom of Religion or Assembly is only addressed by number has little effect BUT ALWAYS FOCUS THE TALK AS THE BILL OF RIGHTS more people might understand
 

Sometimes language is changed for the better though. Unless everyone still thinks that in order to vote in America on has to be white and own land.

MORE than BOR, tho...
 

OK --- I was just attempting to point out that --- If the person in the street was asked DID THEY SUPPORT THE BILL OF RIGHTS ?

1 - most would respond yes

2 - if questioned further about what does the BILL OF RIGHTS MEAN or where it was located Most would not have a clue it was the first 10 Amendments

I just dont really understand why if the 2 nd is so BAD - why not just amend the constitution DID it with probation

If you are interested in the Carlin piece it was in a book he wrote _ since this is a family site , The books name contained the words PORK CHOPS and was written in 2003

Just remember what Ben Franklin said " He who gives up LIBERTY for SAFETY deserves neither "

Just when you hear a different term pumped through the MEDIA -- Just think what the old term was

Got to run my wife has to make an " investment " at TARGET

Yes,just like when G W Bush pushed through the PATRIOT ACT and HOMELAND SECURITY that is a clear attact on THE BILL OF RIGHTS.
Where was the vocal outrage then?
Oh,I forgot,that was to protect us from terrorists.
Give up some rights to keep us safe!
 

Enough Said

There was a big outcry when the patriot bill was passed and still is..... The biggest lie of all is even naming it "patriot" bill...............
 

No, it started long before that, Abraham Lincoln was one of the biggest violators of the Constitution in major ways, giving far more powers to the Federal Government than it was ever suppose to have....
 

Honest Abe was a Republican. Second to run for office under this new party, I believe. I should know, don't remember and am too old and lazy to go look it up...

You ae correct sir.....

The Civil War firmly identified the Republican Party as the party of the victorious North, and after the war the Republican-dominated Congress forced a "Radical Reconstruction" policy on the South, which saw the passage of the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments to the Constitution and the granting of equal rights to all Southern citizens. By 1876, the Republican Party had lost control of the South, but it continued to dominate the presidency until the election of Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1933.
 

Their bills are all worded in newspeak.

The 14th Amendment gave citizenship to all ,except (Section 2)"participation in rebellion or other crimes"-soldiers and members of the CSA.
Section 3 mentions that the United States has no obligation to pay any debts incurred by the CSA.
The AMNESTY ACT removed the political disqualifications and citizen restrictions for all but 500 former members of the CSA.

Well there was that guy Teddy that was born rich and was trying to prove himself a good guy, Big land grab speculator(and progressive).

But there was the Dem. Woodrow Wilson that tore the Bof R to shreds over and over. Imprisoned political dissidents, segregated the armed services, he sent goons to beat people up who disagreed with him...
He was elected on the promise that he would not allow America to get into WW1. Within a couple of months he took America into war.

A Huge Liar, a dangerous fellow. His minister of propaganda(Edward Bernays) was studied by and was the mentor for Hitlers minister of propaganda( Joseph Goebbels).

Progressives have been using these techniques for control for a very long time. Easy to see how Roosevelt got the idea that he was above the office. Easy to see where politicians think they are elected to rule over us.

I have purposefully not given sources for these facts, I encourage you to look them up.
 

It's called political SPIN. Changing the presentation's wording to whichever audience they are specking to is as old as politics as usual.

A bigger concern is not so much how everything is being worded, but what, where, and how the information is being disseminated. If you notice the Administration only travels and speaks to favorable gatherings, most of the other side is interviewed on FOX news. In essence both sides are guilty of convincing only those who already agree with them. The message that we have needs to be given to the opposition, and used to educate them to why we think like we do. It has been my experience that the other side doesn't care what you think unless you agree.

Our elected officials are elected to serve us and do the Govt's business. They take an oath to uphold and protect the Constitution, not change it's wording to suit their needs. We have the Courts to interpet the Constitution, not 50 senetors.

We need to enter that mythical NO-SPIN zone !:violent1:
