Hillary is continuing the great tradition of presidential candidates…

09 Jul

Presidential candidates and presidents always lie. For the past 100+ years, from Wilson to FDR to Truman and up to Obama, they have lied repeatedly about taxes, spending, regulations, and war.  (More to come in future posts)

“Does Hillary Clinton possess the integrity and honesty to be president of the United States? Or are those quaint and irrelevant considerations in electing a head of state in 21st-century America?”

Taxpayer funding of religious institutions declared unconstitutional in New Jersey

06 Jul

Virally all spending by government is unconstitutional.  This is one of the most flagrant examples.  Taking money from people (taxation) to pay for spending that violates people’s consciences is sufficient reason to end the funding or make it voluntary   Government schools, known as public schools, is the best example of the improper use of taxpayer dollars.  Schools, no matter how they are structured, should be funded by fees, scholarships, private grants, donations. etc.

Matt Damon calls for U.S. to ban guns ‘in one fell swoop’

06 Jul

Matt should focus his energies on making good films and not sound like a doofus when it comes to the Second Amendment.  Confiscating firearms is the mind of a totalitarian.  And what is “common sense gun reform”?  In New Jersey, the Second Amendment is virtually nonexistent.  In public we are defenseless against the criminals who can get all the firearms they want in the black market.  Only the super wealthy with armed bodyguards can be so cavalier about the right to self defense.  

“Hollywood actor Matt Damon used a press conference in Australia over the Fourth of July weekend to discuss his desire for a massive confiscation of U.S. guns.”

What becoming a citizen means to me

06 Jul

I sent the following letter to The Record yesterday about a July 4th swearing in of new citizens.

Regarding “Sworn on the Fourth of July” (Page L-1, July 5):

The naturalization ceremony at Liberty State Park (a very apropos named venue) where a group of 21 individuals from many countries became U.S. citizens reminds me of the time I raised my right hand in lower Manhattan 57 years ago to pledge allegiance to my new country and uphold the principles of the U.S. Constitution.

Twice in the past decade I have spoken to newly naturalized citizens in Newark and at Ramapo College; the latter took place on Constitution Day, September 17. My remarks were quite simple. I said naturalized obligations have a special responsibility to our newly adopted unlike native-born Americans; we take an oath to uphold the Constitution, just like elected officials from the President of the United States to local officials.

We thus should make sure that our elected officials uphold their oath of office. Since June 25, 1959 when I raised my right hand before a judge in Lower Manhattan, I can say without equivocating that I have passionately defended the U.S. Constitution. I cannot say the same for presidents, members of Congress, Supreme Court Justices and others who have taken the oath to defend individual liberty, the core of the American experiment in self-government.

Since 1959 undeclared wars, trampling on individual rights, among other unconstitutional acts by politicians from both major political parties, shows clearly that our elected officials and justices have paid lip service to their oath of office.

The Fourth of July: Few reasons to celebrate

04 Jul

America has retreated from the ideals of liberty and freedom.   

“When I was a boy, one of my favorite holidays was Independence Day. I was an enthusiastic student of the War for Independence.”
