Thanks to Randy’s Right for raising this topic.

PREAMBLE:

WE, the people of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, grateful to Almighty God for the blessings of civil and religious liberty, and humbly invoking His guidance, do ordain and establish this Constitution.

Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776, Declaration of Rights
Thorpe 5:3082–84
I. That all men are born equally free and independent, and have certain natural, inherent and inalienable rights, amongst which are, the enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing and protecting property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety.

II. That all men have a natural and unalienable right to worship Almighty God according to the dictates of their own consciences and understanding: And that no man ought or of right can be compelled to attend any religious worship, or erect or support any place of worship, or maintain any ministry, contrary to, or against, his own free will and consent: Nor can any man, who acknowledges the being of a God, be justly deprived or abridged of any civil right as a citizen, on account of his religious sentiments or peculiar mode of religious worship: And that no authority can or ought to be vested in, or assumed by any power whatever, that shall in any case interfere with, or in any manner controul, the right of conscience in the free exercise of religious worship.

III. That the people of this State have the sole, exclusive and inherent right of governing and regulating the internal police of the same.

IV. That all power being originally inherent in, and consequently derived from, the people; therefore all officers of government, whether legislative or executive, are their trustees and servants, and at all times accountable to them.

V. That government is, or ought to be, instituted for the common benefit, protection and security of the people, nation or community; and not for the particular emolument or advantage of any single man, family, or sett of men, who are a part only of that community; And that the community hath an indubitable, unalienable and indefeasible right to reform, alter, or abolish government in such manner as shall be by that community judged most conducive to the public weal.

VI. That those who are employed in the legislative and executive business of the State, may be restrained from oppression, the people have a right, at such periods as they may think proper, to reduce their public officers to a private station, and supply the vacancies by certain and regular elections.

VII. That all elections ought to be free; and that all free men having a sufficient evident common interest with, and attachment to the community, have a right to elect officers, or to be elected into office.

VIII. That every member of society hath a right to be protected in the enjoyment of life, liberty and property, and therefore is bound to contribute his proportion towards the expence of that protection, and yield his personal service when necessary, or an equivalent thereto: But no part of a man’s property can be justly taken from him, or applied to public uses, without his own consent, or that of his legal representatives: Nor can any man who is conscientiously scrupulous of bearing arms, be justly compelled thereto, if he will pay such equivalent, nor are the people bound by any laws, but such as they have in like manner assented to, for their common good.

IX. That in all prosecutions for criminal offences, a man hath a right to be heard by himself and his council, to demand the cause and nature of his accusation, to be confronted with the witnesses, to call for evidence in his favour, and a speedy public trial, by an impartial jury of the country, without the unanimous consent of which jury he cannot be found guilty; nor can he be compelled to give evidence against himself; nor can any man be justly deprived of his liberty except by the laws of the land, or the judgment of his peers.

X. That the people have a right to hold themselves, their houses, papers, and possessions free from search and seizure, and therefore warrants without oaths or affirmations first made, affording a sufficient foundation for them, and whereby any officer or messenger may be commanded or required to search suspected places, or to seize any person or persons, his or their property, not particularly described, are contrary to that right, and ought not to be granted.

XI. That in controversies respecting property, and in suits between man and man, the parties have a right to trial by jury, which ought to be held sacred.

XII. That the people have a right to freedom of speech, and of writing, and publishing their sentiments; therefore the freedom of the press ought not to be restrained.

XIII. That the people have a right to bear arms for the defence of themselves and the state; and as standing armies in the time of peace are dangerous to liberty, they ought not to be kept up; And that the military should be kept under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power.

XIV. That a frequent recurrence to fundamental principles, and a firm adherence to justice, moderation, temperance, industry, and frugality are absolutely necessary to preserve the blessings of liberty, and keep a government free: The people ought therefore to pay particular attention to these points in the choice of officers and representatives, and have a right to exact a due and constant regard to them, from their legislatures and magistrates, in the making and executing such laws as are necessary for the good government of the state.

XV. That all men have a natural inherent right to emigrate from one state to another that will receive them, or to form a new state in vacant countries, or in such countries as they can purchase, whenever they think that thereby they may promote their own happiness.

XVI. That the people have a right to assemble together, to consult for their common good, to instruct their representatives, and to apply to the legislature for redress of grievances, by address, petition, or remonstrance.

Do not be fooled by the shifting sands of Obama-speak. He knows exactly what he is doing. He is beguiling the American people! The catch phrases – “Made in the USA” and “American working people” are designed to appear Patriotic and people-aware, but bear no resemblance to the sincere Patriotism (like that of Toby Keith) of those most Americans.

President Obama will deliver his big Jobs Plan on Thursday.

Is it significant that much of the plan will be in the form of tax cuts? Yes it is. It means that basically, conservatives have won the argument and the Keynesians, while not out the door yet, have certainly been handed their hat.

His ratings have dropped so low that in order to salvage any hope for a second term, he is broadcasting elements within his plan that will sucker some Americans. The expected cost of his plan? “The New York Times said that the cost of the package would be “several hundred billion,” while The Washington Post estimated the cost to be “at least $200 billion.”

Lies During Third Year

“I cannot guarantee that those checks go out on August 3rd if we haven’t resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it.” – American.com

“USA producing more oil than ever before.” – Petroleum Insights

“Fence between US and Mexico is “Practically Complete.” – Department of Homeland Security says 5%

MORE LIES HERE

I offer this list, not out of any hatred toward President Obama, but rather, out of an understanding of how quickly WE-THE-PEOPLE forgive and forget! We must not forget!

  • We must not forget the lies!
  • We must not forget the tyranny of pushing his agenda down the throats of the Congress and the people!
  • We must not forget that his policies have tanked our economy like never before!
  • We must not forget the evidence of illegal activity with “Fast & Furious!”
  • We must not forget our military and First Responders and the wars in which we are currently engaged.
  • We must not forget the lack of leadership from the White House as political friends and Democratic members of Congress “hate-speak” specific elements of the American population.
  • We must not forget the events of 9/11 and those who helped – and those who profited!
  • We must not forget!
    The list goes on …

    Watch to the Republican debates! Listen to the candidates. Read about their stand on the many issues. 2012.presidential-candidates.org is a good source of information. ANY of them are an improvement over the current POTUS! Some of these candidates have clear plans for creating real jobs. Some have years of experience in government. Some have outstanding banking and financial expertise. Some are US Military Veterans.
