"Jim had taken note of Jacob Halbrooks' stated goal to purchase at least one firearm per year. An annual firearm purchase, after expressing a political viewpoint based on non-violence, was a little contradictory, in his view. Not bothering to correct him on the whole "initiation of force" point, I set out to lay down my own take on being armed..." |

"But the "Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act" (BCRA), signed into law by President Bush Wednesday, expands a different view; one upheld by the Supreme Court in the landmark campaign finance case Buckley v. Valeo [424 U.S. 1 (1976)]." |

"Handcuffed, shackled and on his way back to prison from a hearing Tuesday, a Rush Township man said he's not a terrorist but offered no explanation for the cache of weapons police say they found in his home this month."
-- As if having a "cache of weapons" could have no other explanation?

"As freedom lovers we see our freedoms go down the drain a drop at a time until there is a flood. Our actions though effective at times are too diffuse, and too impersonal. Our enemies do not fear us on a personal level so they feel free to ignore us. Even when bad policies are reversed the perpetrators get away to harm us another day."
"So let's make it personal." |

"In 2001, West Virginia ... legislature approved a measure to permit Sunday hunting. Now ... The West Virginia Farm Bureau has asked a court to overturn the law. It claims that legislators were misled by last year’s bill. Those who did not read the bill closely were under the impression that an amendment to the bill would require counties to individually approve Sunday hunting by referendum. In fact, the amendment permits Sunday hunting unless a county prohibits it through a countywide vote." |

"In too many elections, the voters don't have a choice, because liberty is not on the ballot. Well, in 2004, liberty SHALL be on the ballot. I urge all Arizonans to support me, regardless of party affiliation. After all, there are really only two parties, Patriots and Traitors. Right now, Traitors are in solid control of the Congress. I would like to do my small part to change that."

So what "terrorists" are our Special Forces training against in our own cities, the Radical Right, the Gun Nuts, or just Christians? Better check with Rather, Brokaw and Jennings to see who the bad guys are this week!
Nice of them to send along a uniform just to calm the citizens. I guess someone forgot to tell the Deputy in paragraph nine! |

"...the latest setback for former U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno, whose campaign for governor is plagued by questions about whether she can win..."
"In North and North-Central Florida, it's hard to find any demographic where she would have a base simply because of the people that are there. This is still the 'Deep South' and there's a lot of decisions that she made under the Clinton administration regarding things like gun control and issues like that just don't bode well for her." |

"The United States Senate in the spring of 2001 voted 52 to 48 to deprive the farmers of the water that had been promised to them by two previous United States presidents. The environmental organizations got all the Democratic senators to vote against the farmers." |
