VFW members duct-tape flag burner to flag pole

Many Americans are deeply offended when someone sets fire to an American flag. So much so that a Constitutional Amendment prohibiting flag desecration has been proposed. Perhaps none are more upset by this than military veterans, who have seen their fellow service members die in combat fighting for our freedom and know better than any of us what the Stars and Stripes symbolizes.

Local VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) representatives took matters into their own hands recently to punish a man who, after being refused alcohol (because he had no identification), decided to burn the VFW Post's American flag:



This was no ordinary flag, either. It had flown over a foxhole in Iraq, where several U.S. soldiers made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. What do you think? Does the punishment fit the crime?

Sarah Palin's CPAC Keynote Address

Sarah Palin, former governor of Alaska and 2008 Republican candidate for Vice President, delivered a keynote address at the Conservative Policital Action Conference in Washington, DC on February 11.

Palin's remarks kept the crowd jumping to their feet. And it's especially gratifying to watch her rebuke a handful of "occupiers" who disrupt the proceedings at 7:00:

Marco Rubio: Obama is trying to divide Americans

US Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) spoke with bloggers at the American Conservative Union-sponsored CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) gathering in Washington, DC on February 9. In his remarks - made without a teleprompter - Rubio succinctly explains President Barack Hussein Obama's flawed socialist political philosophy, offers a spirited defense of capitalism, comments on world political affairs, and waxes eloquent on American exceptionalism.

This man has a bright future in American politics:

Saturday morning TV memories

If you were a kid in the 1960s or 1970s, you'll enjoy this video trip down memory lane. Isn't it amazing - and fun - that we can find stuff like this online?



Perhaps you saw a commercial or two that you remember. What were your favorite television shows?

Police raid, guns drawn, in search of raw milk

This is what it's come to in America under the Obama Regime:



President Obama's Food and Drug Administration warns about the potential adverse effects of so-called "raw milk." Is it legal to sell raw milk? In many cases, according to the FDA, yes. But if you dare sell this terribly dangerous commodity, law enforcement officers may enter your private property, weapons drawn, to enforce these seemingly-obscure Federal regulations.

Obama's heavy-handed, police state tactics are a clear violation of the store owner's private property rights and the Constitutional rights of every employee and patron to be free from unreasonable search and seizure. Most reasonable people would agree that it isn't necessary - or wise - for police to enter a law-abiding, peaceful, place of legal business acting like stormtroopers.

But Obama, who has touted himself as a Constitutional scholar, has never demonstrated much understanding of the document. His respect for the principles it espouses is negligible. And his policies undermine both the US Constitution and Declaration of Independence at every turn.
