Greg, Interesting to look at the history of it in the link that LOS posted .... particularly in the original officers oath, where the thirteen states are clearly enumerated .... (I'd also be curious to know in which versions - if any - of the various oaths "united states" was capitalized as a...

Yup - but it isn't limited to just veteran groups (Tea Party, Ron Paul supporters, etc) ..... nor did it start with Obama .... Exactly. In fact, as I commented to a friend last night, that if one were to look for those folks who are most likely to have a very good understanding and awareness...

Right - the fact is that the federal flag law (4 U.S.C. § 1 et seq) is advisory in nature, contains no penalties (nor should it), and is rarely enforced .... indeed - the Supreme Court has already ruled that punitive enforcement would conflict with the First Amendment right to freedom of speech.

Further, I would say: Check the history of this country ...... with respect to the law, and specifically the Constitution, the sovereignty and rights of the states and the individual citizen ..... and the actions of Congress in respect to the aforementioned ..... This might be a good place to...

With regard to what, specifically ?

Anyone has the right to fly the US flag half-mast for whomever they choose ..... just as anyone else is free to opine on the wisdom of doing so .... or the lack thereof .... People can judge all of it on the merits ..... Speaking of the US Flag ... this is the version that I prefer...

Thank you chef .... glad you enjoyed the quote. (BTW, good article at the link - thanks !) It's easier .... :D Ideals (as espoused in theory) are often divorced in the attempt at practice. It happens for a variety of reasons - some of them perfectly understandable, and sometimes perhaps even...

"If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals -- if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the...

Bad enough that they even hired that Lew Rockwell guy ... they must be bad if they hired him .... after all, he seems to be a fan of personal freedom .... that alone qualifies him (and them) as an enemy of the state ....

I got my mine (Trojan L16E-AC's) at Staab Battery in St. Louis (Hazelwood, MO) - they also have locations in Springfield, IL and Chicago, IL. Good prices (they may discount off the price on their website, depending on how many batteries you're buying - they did for me) ..... they seemed like...

In our local store where I picked mine up, they were right next to the section where most of the rest of the (smaller) extension cords were ..... IIRC (which is questionable), the larger cords are not as obvious and easier to miss .... because they are boxed up.

OH-MI-GAWD ..... Noooooooo ! Not the evil Lew Rockwell ..... nemesis of neocons everywhere (.... I hear he's like Kryptonite to 'em ....) Isn't he that disgusting fellow who worked at Hillsdale_College in Michigan - which National Review described as a "citadel of American conservatism" ...

Nope - but neither are we .... But more to the point: What did they do to us, prior to our initial meddling in their affairs ? Did they come to our shores, invade, and commit all manner of murder and mayhem ? Execute a coup and topple our democratically elected government ? Assassinate our...

Look harder - they carry them. (I pulled them up on their website in about 20 seconds - search for "extension cord" and then set the display to "highest price to lowest") The brand is Utlitech I think. Not cheap. (I have one of them - it's a 100' and 10/3 (gauge/conductors) - it is about as...

Please do remember that you are addressing your comments to one of the self-appointed "Masters Of The Universe" .... .... all things are under their control .... and there never are any unintended consequences ....

Ya beat me to it :)

ROTFLMAO ..... hilarious ..... Sorry, but you ain't gonna understand what is actually going on - not based on that simplistic data anyways - because it's likely inaccurate (or will be), due to the fact that it's based on estimates. One needs to understand the process. Of course, it's not...

I believe your assertion (above) is incorrect, if I am reading (and understanding) what you are saying correctly. You may wish to re-read the article - or expound on what you wrote above. (Just keep in mind when re-reading it, it was probably written by someone with a fairly limited...

Yup .... read it last night/early this morning (?) ..... One should also keep in mind that most of the "reporters" that are reporting on this are largely unfamiliar with how the process actually works (varies state to state), and how the delegates are actually allocated - and so, are subject...

Goes almost without saying, don't it ? Try watching the Rick Steves documentaries on Iran I posted awhile back (note of caution: it may cause your head to explode) Nope ..... but they're not the only ones who's population isn't entirely happy with those in positions of power .... Google...
