obama rejects Gettysburg visit for 150th anniversary

mg....conservatives don't revolt...
you guys sat on tory behinds and let the liberals create a nation...and have been whining about it ever since...including the insane attempt to divide the union.

Pippin it is Conservatives that are fighting to protect and defend our BOR and Constitution.

Our forefathers would roll over in their graves over the liberals today.

It is liberals who want to restrict 2nd amendment, it is they who support the murder of unborn children, it is they who want to restrict 1st admendment rights.

"House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Thursday endorsed a movement announced by other congressional Democrats on Wednesday to ratify an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would allow Congress to regulate political speech when it is engaged in by corporations as opposed to individuals.

The First Amendment says in part: "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press..."

Television and radio networks, newspapers, publishing houses, movie studios and think tanks, as well as political action committees, are usually organized as, or elements of, corporations."

Conservatives are fighting to preserve our rights and freedoms as they are written in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution...




We will NOT go quitely into the night!
 

Treasure Hunter:

I saw that the Hobby Lobby has gone to court claiming as a corporate person it has a right to religious beliefs.

I simply don't buy this nonsense that corporations have the same rights as natural persons. What's next - they get to vote?

At the time the Constitution was written, corporations were joint stock enterprises. Banks were illegal in the first state constitution of California.

Times have changed - not for the better.

Good luck to all,

Hobby Lobby is a Christian private own company....

So so don't believe Newspapers own by corporations have the right to free speech.

The chasm just got wider.....

Freedom of speech is in the Bill of Rights. Corporations are not. I don't believe a corporation donating money is Speech. It's donating money.

I don't except the premise that Ms. Pelosi is trying to limit the legitimate Freedom of Speech.

Have you read Thomas Jefferson on entail? Wasn't he one of the giants of the Revolution? Author of the Declaration of Independence?

Good luck to all,

OB, corporations own newspapers, magazines, TV stations, raido stations, internet companies...... If you restrict freedom of speech from corporations the danger it will affect those I lisited is there and I am not willing to take that chance.......

When it comes to our freedoms, Bill of Rights, and Constitution I do not trust this adminstration or any adminstration when they start talking about limiting our basic rights.......

What if I and 9 people formed a corporation to fight government policy, as a corporation we would lose our freedom of speech....No not now, not ever would I agree to give up freedom of speech for an individual or a corporation.......

I guess the ol' prez does have other things on his mind. He's out telling his sheep that they didn't hear everything he said about keeping their insurance and drs.

With all due respect, I believe your knowledge is short.

Mr. Obama did not punish WW II vets. He didn't shut down the Federal government - it was a fringe part of the Republican party that thought it was such a great idea. They talked about it for years, they made it happen, then they grandstanded and ran like crazy from the results.

Good luck to all,

Wrong. People high up in the National Park Service have admitted that the orders to close the veterans memorials came directly from the White House. Many of the choices they made were done purposely to create the biggest public outrage and then to lay the blame squarely at the feet of the Republican party. Unfortunately for Mr Oblamer the truth came out. Thanks for playing along. The man is a total disgrace and the apologists like you keep the lie alive with your smoke & mirrors. It's YOUR knowledge that's short but the truth dosn't fit your agenda.
