Hall County GOP Chairman Blog

…I can understand Jefferson’s concern about separation of church and state when you read what the Muslim Saudi’s just did.  Afraid men will use cats or dogs to pick up girls, they just banned the sale of all pets and walking pets outside.  WTH?  The Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (the Muslim police there) will confiscate any pets in violation of this new prohibition.

Here religion not only gets involved in Government, but controls it.

This is NOT a function of good government.  What about the pet store owners?  What about the pet owners?  What do they do now?  They can’t walk their dogs?  What is going to happen to all the pets that are confiscated?  Guess!

Reasonable people know the difference between this craziness and Jefferson’s wall of separation.  You know.  I know.  Just Democrats have a hard time knowing.  (Muslim States know, but they don’t care.)  But Democrats use this kind of craziness to scare good citizens into being afraid of their neighbors and their churches.  You should be afraid.  Of the Democrats.  Especially the Dali Bama.

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof….”  Amendment I, U.S. Constitution.

Where in that sentence do you see a separation of Church and State like the Democrats want?  Only Congress is prohibited from establishing a religion, not any other governmental entity.  Second only Congress is prohibited from interfering with the free exercise of YOUR religion.  (But since YOU have the right to freely exercise your religion at the Federal level, no other lower government entity can take that right away from you.  Lower governmental entities can GIVE you MORE rights but they can’t take any away.)

This is a “one way” separation.  The government can’t interfere with your religion at all.  That includes telling you that you can’t show your religion (e.g. exercise it) any way you want.  Here is how Jefferson put it (remember that he wrote the words of the First Amendment):

Document 58

Thomas Jefferson to Danbury Baptist Association

1 Jan. 1802  Writings 16:281

Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should “make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” thus building a wall of separation between Church and State. Adhering to this expression of the supreme will of the nation in behalf of the rights of conscience, I shall see with sincere satisfaction the progress of those sentiments which tend to restore to man all his natural rights, convinced he has no natural right in opposition to his social duties.

For those who skipped Logic in college, let me introduce you to a new concept.  You can’t invert a logical truth and necessarily have a logical truth.  If A, then B does not equal if B, then A.  For example,  you will agree that all men are mortal.  However the inverse is not true that all mortal beings are men.  Some mortal beings are women.  Everyone that has intentionally flown an airplane into American buildings is a man of Arab descent.  But is is an error to say that all men of Arab descent have flown (or want to fly) airplanes into American buildings.  That is a logical error.  Democrats, however, make this logical error whenever it suits them.  If it is true that the Goverment can’t mess with religion it is not necessarily true that religion can mess with Government.

The Democratic concept of separation of Church and State is just such a logical error.  Just because the State is to stay out of religion does not mean that religion should stay out of the government.  Just because 5 people in Washington have decided to agree to make a logical error in interpreting the Constitution does not make it right.  Read the words of the Consitution again slowly and carefully.

Democrats don’t like religion by and large because God imposes defined boundaries of behavior.  Democrats like to make up the rules as they go along.  God gets in the way.  But being anti-God is not very popular.  So Democrats have to say they are fighting for your Constitutional Rights when they prohibit you from praying in school or otherwise exercising your freedom of religion.  Follow that logic?  Me neither.

Thanks to Tack Cornelius (one of the smartest men I know) for providing the Jefferson quote above.

A moment of silence before looking at this picture—->Navy NewsStand - Eye on the Fleet  This is WAR brought into the streets of New York City by foreign soilders.  Your street WILL BE next if you do nothing.

July 31, 1981, U.S. Military MEPS Station, Jacksonville, Florida: 

“I, Paul Stanley, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.”

I have never been relieved of this oath.

This will be my only response to Mike and other Democrat fascists.  What service were they in?  Like the Dali Bama, none, I’m sure.  To liberals, soilders are just guys in funny hats with guns that take up money that could be used for social programs.  Like a good pickpocket, liberals want you to watch one hand while the other goes for your wallet.  As long as liberals or their friends profit from any government program, they are satisfied–no matter what the program does to you.  Liberals squeal like pigs about their rights, but they are ready to spit on yours for a dollar (or a fish or turtle).  To liberals, the Constitution is a “living changing document” that is “variable” based upon the “social norms” that 5 people in Washington impose upon you.  And Liberals, lead by the Dali Bama want to choose which 5 people make the decision.  (HINT:  You are not one of them.  Jesus would not be on their list either.)

The American Fighting Wo/Man is the only thing that stands between your quiet pursuit of happiness and death.  Vote Republican or prepare to surrender.  Surrender your rights.  Surrender your church.  Surrender your wallets.  Surrender your home and property.  Surrender the lives of your family.  Worse yet, surrender your heart and mind and soul to a bunch of heathens bent on self aggrandizement who are driving electric cars, wearing sandals, and smiling at you the whole time.

Of course not all Democrats are heathens–but almost all heathens are Democrats and their Democrat leaders are all heathens (OK, I’ll give you Jimmy, but even they ignore him unless he says something silly).  Believing in God is not the same thing as following Him.  Even Satan believes in God.  Your friendly next door neighbor Democrat you go to church with is not going to get appointed to the Supreme Court any more than you are.  Neither is Jimmy.

VOTE RIGHT, VOTE REPUBLICAN

VOTE MCCAIN: NO SURRENDER

By Tommy Sandoval

If I argued like Arturo Corso does, I would borrow his “marching orders” slur; he has used it several times, most recently when he suggested that another writer of a letter to the editor should “think about the ‘marching orders’ he signs off on before sending them in for print.”

Less government means more freedom.  Less tax means more money to save or spend on what you want AND more revenue for government.  Less spending means more money for important government services like the military.  This concept is fundamental—and unique–to the Republican Party.  It is what the “Brand” Republican stands for.  It is the fundamental difference between Republicans and the other party.  If you want less taxes, less bureaucrats, less regulation, then you are one of us.  Climb on board with the winning Republicans.

It is a great time to be a Republican in Hall County!  All officials in Hall County (that are elected by party) are Republican.  The Lt.
