I was reading http://www.biggovernment.com/ and came upon a reply that really made sence, so I wanted to share it with y'all.
There seems to be an obsession on the left to understand the mind of evil people.
All of MSNBC's programming between their daytime and primetime anchoring duties is devoted to analyzing either Charlie Manson's mind, being inside of a high security prison, or catching a sexual predator.
On the other side of the coin FOX looks at war heroes with Oliver North.
If you ever want to understand the difference between a mind of a liberal and a mind of a conservative, this is it.
No wonder the left seems so open to evil people like Chavez and Castro, and willing to bring people like Ahmadinejad from Iran to the table. They're walking into the abyss and don't know the way back.

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indiana Court of Appeals has ruled that Indiana's voter identification law is unconstitutional.
6News is looking through the 29-page ruling now and will provide details from it as soon as possible.
The decision comes after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the state's voter ID law in 2008, a week before the presidential primary, in a splintered 6-3 ruling.
Backers of the law, which requires a voter to present a photo identification to cast a ballot, said it curbs voter fraud.
Those against the law contend that it keeps poor, older and minority voters from casting ballots.
The law passed in 2005 with the ardent support of Gov. Mitch Daniels and other Republicans in state government.
The argument is that its not fair that absentee voters aren't held to the same standard as in-person voters. (Because the supreme court has already ruled that the way IDs are handled for in-person voters is permissible, so they are tossing up a bogus complaint that absentee ballots are treated differently. easy fix, ask for the same ID requirements for absentee ballots)
The supreme court has ruled that its permissible to ask for ID if the state allows for free ID for those without means.
(In this day and age, who can do anything without ID? How do you cash a check? get on a bus, or plane?)
Two thoughts,
1. Those of you in Indiana must contact your State legislator immediately , and change the absentee ballot process by adding a requirement to add a state ID number, and adding a state procedure wherein county registrars cross verify that the ID number matches the name and address. Military ID similar, asking them for military ID number on the affidavit.
2. Missouri residents, our voter ID law is related and similar enough that the folks that rely on voter fraud to get elected will encourage the ACLU to file a suit to throw our law out on similar grounds. So the same thing for us, call your state rep, explain the problem, and ask for a bill to standardize ballot access between in-person and absentee voters.
This will affect the 2010 mid-term elections if not fixed quickly.
If I am elected to the house of Representatives, my first effort will be to work to enact similar federal requirements for federal elections.

(stolen from Liberator online) Signs from the Rally in DC 9/12
Here are a few of our favorites, culled from photos scattered across the Web:
"No Child Left a Dime"
"You Are Not Entitled to What I Earn"
"Don't Steal -- The Government Hates Competition"
"Our government needs to be small enough to fit inside our Constitution."
"STOP the March to SOCIALISM"
"Bankrupt America, Yes We Can"
"If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention."
"I'm Not Your ATM"
"NOBAMACARE"
"Change We Can't Afford"
"The IRS is 96 Years Old -- Let IT Die"
"Karl Marx is Not a Founding Father"
"HONK if I'm Paying Your Mortgage" (held by small child)
"STOP Spending MY future!" (held by child)
"Help me, Mr. Obama. They want me to work and stuff."
"As government expands, liberty shrinks."
"Party like it's 1773."
"Don't tax me, bro!"
"Silence is consent"
"Chains We Can Believe In"
... and we especially like this one, which pithily combines sound policy and common sense: "LIBERTY: All The Stimulus We Need!"

Obama stabs our Eastern European allies in the back. not cool. I think this is stupid and shortsighted. And for normal, thinking Americans, I am sorry. this is not how normal Americans act or think. Please hold out hope that this can be corrected at our next election, dont hold it against us.

"If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense, which is paramount to all positive forms of government; and which, against the usurpations of the national rulers, may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success, than against those of the rulers of an individual state. ... Power being almost always the rival of power, the general government will at all times stand ready to check the usurpations of the state governments; and those will have the same disposition toward the general government. The people, by throwing themselves into either scale, will infallibly make it preponderate. If their rights are invaded by either, they can make use of the other as the instrument of redress. ...
"It may safely be received as an axiom in our political system that the state governments will in all possible contingencies afford complete security against invasions of the public liberty by the national authority."
"It may safely be received as an axiom in our political system that the state governments will in all possible contingencies afford complete security against invasions of the public liberty by the national authority."
"Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. Winston Churchill.
There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves."
The Spartans at Thermopylae knew this.
The fighting Jews of Masada knew this, when every man, woman and child died rather than submit to Roman tyranny.
The Texans who died at the Alamo knew this.
The frozen patriots of Valley Forge knew this.
The "expendable men" of Bataan and Corregidor knew this.
If there is one lesson of Hitlerism and the Holocaust, it is that free men, if they wish to remain free, must resist would-be tyrants at the first opportunity and at every opportunity.
Remember that whether they the come as conquerors or elected officials, the men who secretly wish to be your murderers must first convince you that you must accept them as your masters. Free men and women must not wait until they are "selected", divided and herded into Warsaw Ghettos, there to finally fight desperately, almost without weapons, and die outnumbered. The tyrant must be met at the door when he appears. At your door, or mine, wherever he shows his bloody appetite. He must be met by the pistol which can defeat an army. He must be met at every door, for in truth we outnumber him and his henchmen. It matters not whether they call themselves Communists or Nazis or something else. It matters not what flag they fly, nor what uniform they wear. It matters not what excuses they give for stealing your liberty, your property or your life. "By their works ye shall know them."

My local school district has told me that they had no intention of showing Obama's video assignment.
Good for them. Another school district has publically said they they will tape it, look it over, give parents time to absorb its contents, and decide for themselves what to tell their kids. After that they will decide when to show it, and for which grades. good for them.
In my old state, schools would have played it without hesitation, and told parents to pound sand.
