Constitutional Libertarianism

Constitutional Libertarianism

Thursday, July 4, 2013

Wonder if you knew...

Freedom of Speech does not mean anyone has to listen or care about what you say.

Freedom "of" religion does not mean freedom "from" religion.  You believe what you want and I'll believe what I want.

"Liberty" isn't just a bell.  It's the ability to live one's own life on one's own terms.  Not what some government, religion or people/person tells you you have to do.

The right to keep and bear arms has many reasons which justify it, the ability to have citizen's ready to participate in a militia is just the one the framers of the document felt need to be said.

The right to keep and bear arms "...shall not be infringed."  Why is that so hard to understand?  It means don't mess with it.

The 5th Amendment means that if they want to accuse you of a crime, they can't force you to do the work of proving it for them.  They actually are supposed to come up with facts and evidence to prove you did it themselves.

Oath of office

Executive (President)
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Legislative (Congress)

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. [So help me God.]

Judiciary (Supreme Court)

In the United States, federal judges are required to take two oaths. The first oath is this:
I, (name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as (office) under the Constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God
The second is the same oath that members of Congress take

You might notice that ALL of the three branches of government are required to support, protect, defend against all enemies foreign and domestic.

They also vow to do their job as determined by that same Constitution.

Anytime someone in one of those three branches does not do their job EXACTLY as the Constitution has layed out for them, they are violating their oath of office.
