Where the hell were these people for the last eight years???

(Video directed towards people serving in the military)



"Today, I want to reach out to all of the men and women who are serving in the United States Armed Forces, in law enforcement, and in the intelligence services.

With our country on the brink of complete economic collapse, engaged in two wars, a military stretched to thin overseas, and the constitution discarded by our representatives in Washington, we call upon you to recall your oath of enlistment to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic and join those of us who are working to restore our constitutional republic.

There are clear and immediate domestic threats to the republic and the people of the United States. With the increasing threat to the right to bear arms and the well regulated militia, the people's ability to preserve a free state has been drastically limited.

Therefore, we call upon you disobey any order that infringes upon the rights enumerated in our constitution.

Many of your brother and sisters have given their lives for the freedoms we hold so dear and that make our nation strong. Our representatives in Washington are not listening to the people, we have petitioned the government only to be met with repeated injuries.

The founders forged a perfect union and administration after administration has strayed further and further from their intent.

Upholding your oath may require the detention of elected officials. Following your oath, obeying the Nuremberg principles and preventing a rogue government from committing crimes against the people is not a military coup, it is protecting the Constitution, your highest obligation.

We the people need you at our side during these times, please join us as we restore the republic together.

Long live the republic."

Marching in lockstep with the administration, but now that we don't have a Republican in office, all bets are off?

Gah. "There's a Democrat in office and HE'S GOING TO TAKE OUR GUNS AWAY!!!!!!!!!"

Really, that's the total content of this message.

And yet I haven't really seen anything to make me think this is going to happen any time soon. I think he's got bigger fish to fry than prying guns out of hands. All this crap does is make me think I should avail myself of my 2nd amendment rights now that I'm in Texas, just to be on the safe side.

Exactly. In fact, Obama campaigned in part on a message of gun ownership rights. They're building a straw man, soaking him in kerosene, then lighting it on fire, and then pointing to it as if it were a real threat. Bah.

"The founders forged a perfect union." Someone hasn't read the Constitution lately. The founders formed "a more perfect union" than the one that they broke from, but it was by no means "a perfect union," unless you think that the people have no right to choose their representatives in the Senate, that women shouldn't have the right to vote, or that slavery should be legal.

Then again, upon looking at the Hutt that seems to be their leader, perhaps he does believe that.
