Newt Checks and Balances Liberal Judges
Presenting the most powerful challenge to the liberal establishment in this campaign.
The genius of America’s Founding Fathers is reflected in the innovative system of checks and balances they adopted for our government, to prevent abuse of power by any authority. Congressional legislation is subject to veto by the President, and to review for constitutionality by the courts. The President and his Executive branch are subject to the laws passed by Congress, enforced by the courts, and presidential appointments are subject to confirmation by the Senate. So are treaties. The President appoints the judges, subject to Senate confirmation.
And if those judges refuse to apply the law objectively as written, and instead engage in judicial activism making up their own law based on their own liberal/left values, then they are applauded by the liberal/left media and academia. The rest of us can go pound sand.
At least that is the view of the New York Times, the Washington Post, the bar association, and the law schools. They are the ultimate authority and rulers in America under this doctrine of judicial supremacy. Any other view is dangerous to our most fundamental liberties, they tell us (at least while the judges reflect their liberal/left views).
But not according to Newt Gingrich, the Founding Fathers, and American history. To these authorities, it is judicial supremacy that is dangerous to our most fundamental liberties.
Gingrich explained the historical checks and balances on the judiciary in our American system of government, in a brilliant speech to the Value Voters Summit last month. He accompanied that with a detailed campaign position paper released at the same time, entitled “Bringing the Courts Back Under the Constitution.” These insights are reflected as well in Plank 9 of his new 21st Century Contract with America.
The currently reigning establishment counterauthorities cited above reject any such checks on their power. But in Gingrich they have a foe who has proven he knows how to beat the establishment, and has the guts to take them on.
Checkmate
Gingrich recalls the actual checks and balances on the judiciary established by our Founding Fathers, who recognized the dangers of judicial supremacy. Jefferson wrote in challenging such judicial supremacy in 1820, “You seem to consider the judges the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.” Jefferson further wrote later that year, “The judiciary of the United States is the subtle corps of sappers and miners constantly working underground to undermine our Constitution from a co-ordinate of a general and special government to a general supreme one alone. This will lay all things at their feet.”
The view of Jefferson, the Founding Fathers, and Gingrich is that interpretation of the Constitution is not the role of the judicial branch alone. Because we have three, equal, co-branches of our government, reflecting the separation of powers that enables checks and balances, Congress representing the legislative branch and the President representing the executive branch, have equal authority to interpret the Constitution as well.
Under our Constitution, Congress and the President consequently serve as checks and balances on a runaway judiciary of activist judges reading their own elitist liberal/left values into the Constitution, contrary to the will of the people. Because Congress and the President are subject to regular elections, they are subject to the ultimate check by the people holding them responsible for their conduct in office, including their interpretations of the Constitution.
For an example as to how this works, Gingrich points to Abraham Lincoln and his response to the Dred Scott decision upholding slavery as involving established property rights. Lincoln disagreed with the Supreme Court’s interpretation of the Constitution, as informed by the Declaration of Independence and other founding documents, concluding that there was no basis in the Constitution or anywhere in American law for holding that some people could have property rights in the person of other people. Lincoln agreed that the Dred Scott decision was binding on the parties to that case, but not on the whole nation, or on his Administration, saying in his 1861 Inaugural Address:
[T]he candid citizen must confess that if the policy of the government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the instant they are made in ordinary litigation between parties in personal actions, the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned their government into the hands of that eminent tribunal.
Consequently, Lincoln’s Administration refused to enforce the Supreme Court’s doctrine that slaves were the valid property of others, or to recognize the Dred Scott decision’s binding authority on his Administration. He acted contrary to it in granting passports to African Americans who applied for them, recognizing them as people not property. He signed legislation denying the Supreme Court’s property rights over slaves whose “owners” took them to Federal territories, which was directly contrary to the ruling in Dred Scott. In 1863, Lincoln issued his Emancipation Proclamation freeing all slaves within the United States, again directly contrary to the Supreme Court’s “property rights” announced in Dred Scott. If that case was binding on the Lincoln Administration, then the federal government would have had to pay compensation for the Emancipation Proclamation to all slaveowners under the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause.
In his Values Voter Summit speech last month, Gingrich similarly explained how Franklin Roosevelt exercised his check and balance on the Supreme Court, saying:
In 1942 a group of German saboteurs were landed in Florida and Long Island. They were all picked up within two weeks. Roosevelt brought in his attorney general and said: They will be tried in a military court, they will be executed, it should happen within three weeks, and tell the Supreme Court if they issue a writ of habeas corpus, I will not honor it, and therefore they should not issue it. I am the commander in chief in wartime. They aren’t.

Newtie is a failure who answers to his Masters in the Pro-Israel Zionist lobby. He is just another Pro-War neo-con. He will never defeat Obama. It is Ron Paul or ruin.
Goofy| 11.16.11 @ 6:37AM
Newt has a Callista problem...When they met, he was married to wife #2 and Callista was his employee...They began an affair...Then Callista demanded that Newt divorce #2 and marry her,
or else she would file sexual harassment charges againsst him for sex with an employee..So Newt was forced to divorce #2 and marry #3. Then
Callista demanded $Millions in jewelry and a $500,000.00 charge account at Tiffany's, which she got...Then she demanded to be on TV with Newt and to co-author books and videos with him,
which she also got. She has blackmailed her way to the top, but she will never be America's first lady.
florin| 11.16.11 @ 8:14AM
And no matter what gingrich promises to do during a campaign, he will not honor that promise just as he did not honor his marriage vows to his first two wives, just as he did not honor or respect his office when he was having affairs with young interns, just as he did not honor conservative principles when he urged Repubs. to vote for radical left wing pro abortion, pro gay marriage Repub. Dede Scozzafava, or when he cozied up to Pelosi and Gore...and so much more. gingrich has no character and no core principles except to promote himself...his ego is huge. Hannity fawns over him for some reason, constantly brings his name up asking his guests what they think of his Newt...if the guests are favorable to newt, they get to talk, if they are not, Hannity shuts them off...newt has no chance against Obama...Romney does...so, if we don't want 4 more years of Obama...forget newt.
Grzmlyk| 11.16.11 @ 2:54PM
Hannity is a mindless regurgitator of dogma who has somehow duped many people into thinking he's a thinker. He is not.
I agree with most of the tenets Hannity reinforces, but he is incapable of original thought, and he's extraordinarily vain.
Newt is NO conservative. He has proven this time and time again. Newt believes he answers only to Newt.
To pick just one of his many heresies, his appearance on that couch with Nancy Pelosi urging us to join hands for a greener planet was the end of any support I might have had, ever, for Newt Gingrich. There is NO excuse for that craven appearance and, in fact, Newt still hedges on global warming.
Gingrich is very impressive in debates and he has a facile mind. That is the beginning and the end of his ability to stand out. He is not the "thought leader" he poses as; most of his policy prescriptions are unoriginal. He is a craven, narcissistic politician with an outsized ego.
NEVER.
florin| 11.16.11 @ 11:45PM
What I don't understand is this: Hannity proclaims over and over that he is a Conservative, thoroughly conservative and yet he almost drools over Gingrich...he mentions his name every chance he gets and yet Gingrich is not and has never been a true Conservative...what's up with Hannity?
Jack in WI| 11.17.11 @ 7:37AM
He drools over Rove just as much. I do agree with your take on Hannity, grzmlyk, that comment is dead on. He repetitive, unoriginal and frankly boring.
Jack in Wi| 11.18.11 @ 12:57AM

TrueBlue| 11.16.11 @ 6:43PM
Newt is a good idea man, and understands the Constitution very well. Sadly he also has a habit of doing things he knows he shouldn't, like having an affair with an intern. An excellent resource to reference, but not a President.
TrueBlue| 11.16.11 @ 6:44PM
Heck, you can even use him as a reference of what NOT to do.

Newt is a thoroughly internationalist man as proved in this article: NEWT TRAINED LOBBYISTS FOR FREDDIE MAC - PAID $1.6 MILLION .... http://www.thenewamerican.com/.....16-million
CrackerHound| 11.16.11 @ 9:00AM
No one is disputing the faults of Newt that you list. ALL politicians have shortcomings...ALL people have shotcomings.
The reality is that we will need to nominate a human to run against Obama and don't have the luxury of some angelic being who will suddenly appear.
Newt has the tools, the will to fight, and the boldness to undo the entrenched Marxism in our country and the skills to effect great change in the system which is now hopelessly broken. Will he get it done? I don't know. What I do know is that there is no one in the mix right now who can so we are stuck with Newt....and I for one am not disheartend by that.
florin| 11.16.11 @ 10:33AM
Yes we all have flaws, but we are looking for a President not a...whatever. It's not that newt has flaws...it's that he does not have a solid moral compass...he has said that people don't care what he does, they only care about what he says. He spouts ideas and gets the rep. for being brilliant..he is not brilliant, not by a long shot. He has obsessively pursued the presidency all his life...and yet, knowing that would bring him under the spotlights of deep scrutiny, he could not help but go after women, have sex with them for years while married, and then discard each for a newer model...he's smart, but he's not brilliant and he is not and has never been a true conservative. newt is whatever will bring him an advantage...he sides with liberals when it suits him; he goes after conservatives viciously when they do not suit him...he has no chance against Obama...none! Romney does...and although we may not subscribe to all Romney's agenda, nor should we subscribe to gingrich's - so what's the difference? Character...Romney has never had a scandal attached to him while gingrich's life is riddled with scandal - he is too arrogant and truly does believe that he can do what he wants and no one will care because he's so 'brilliant' - he has even said this of himself...
CrackerHound| 11.16.11 @ 11:27AM
Romney does not have any scandals attached to him...YET. That is my point. We can never really know the character of a man by watching him on the debate stage or his public life in general. We CAN know what skills he possess and Newt has political skills. The bottom line for me is that just about everyone I know has been divorced and Newt is no different. We don't know what has happened in his private life/marriage. It's real easy to take a side in a divorce, but as we all know what we see in public does not always match what happens in a private home/marriage. I cannot judge the man by a left wing media driven narrative and the fact that he has been divorced or what he buys at Tiffany's.
I have never been a huge Newt fan but he is more conservative than Romney and I think he will be more effective undoing the mess we are in now.
Romney and Gingrich are our only two choices at this point and I will not be devastated if we end up with Romney but my confidence in the future of our republic will be diminished (and it's pretty low as is).
florin| 11.16.11 @ 11:50PM
Romney has been thoroughly vetted/researched by the liberal media...and it's not gingrich's multiple marriages/divorces that matter so much...it's his multiple affairs WHILE MARRIED that matter...he cheated on his first wife with his second wife and cheated on his second wife with his third and was having sex with interns while blaming Clinton for doing the same...Gingrich is neither a liberal nor a progressive nor a conservative...Newt is what he is...he is his whole universe and he treats women shabbily, using them for his own pleasures and purposes and then discarding them for a newer model...character matters...remember, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely...gingrich was corrupted by the power he had when he was in Congress. If ever he would be in the oval office, the corruption would be absolute.
sirbourbon| 11.16.11 @ 12:40PM
While out on the stump, the gingrich that stole and stole from taxpayers Christmas has put up quite an imaginative defense for his past newt-like behavior with Freddie and Fannie.
Purpleguy| 11.16.11 @ 12:54PM
Pray tell, how has Marxism taken root since Obama was President? Can you explain that?
Grzmlyk| 11.16.11 @ 3:02PM
I agree, purple guy.
If you think about it, Obama's really quite conservative (not to mention brilliant, a compromiser, a pragmatist, a great human being and a hard worker!).
I'm sure history will judge him America's best dictat--- I mean President, like, totally EVER.
Now if we can just, uh, "liquidate" all those violent, bigoted, criminal, scumbag tea baggers and replace them with those altruistic angels and paragons of human selflessness that comprise the OWS movement, our little corner of paradise in Upside Down land will be complete.

Easy.
"ObamaCare".
It is totally, 100% marxist/socialist. As is the 21st century democrat party.
It's not my responsibility to take care of you with tax dollars that the Gov't extorts from my wallet.
That's called socialism.
Obama IS a Socialist.
It CANNOT denied. It IS a FACT.
Not our fault you're too dumb to get it.
canuckistani| 11.16.11 @ 4:39PM
Forcing a person to have basic coverage is socialist?
I think it a winfall for the insurance companies, and a relief to people already mature enough to have their own coverage.
Bydand76| 11.16.11 @ 11:29PM
Yes,
Forcing a person to have basic coverage IS Socialist in nature not to mention unconstitutional (IMHO)....
And if you think its a WINDFALL for people or small business' then your even dumber than the average Canadian to begin with.
But I would not expect a stinking Canadian to understand... not that your opinion in these matters means anything to begin with.
Your Canadian and regardless of what you say, do, or think. Your opinion is irrelevant... because you do not get to vote in MY country so.........go away insect!
Purpleguy| 11.16.11 @ 4:44PM
Oh, I get it, Chuckles ... but what you don't get is that America has been Socialist for 150 years or so. We are a capital-socialistic country, as is the entire developed world. There are simply different degrees of capital-social balancing. George Bush was a socialist, so is Dick Cheney, as is Rick Perry, even Ron Paul ... so get over it already.
As far as taking care of me with YOUR tax dollars, keep 'em I don't need 'em. I'm positive I pay more in taxes than you do anyway.
However, you have no choice in where your tax dollars are spent - it is up to your elected representatives, not you - so get over that too. Now to Obama being a socialist - my, my you really don't know one do you? Michael Moore would be much closer to your definition of socialist and Obama is definitely not that. He's too beholden to the same corporate money trough your own Republican officials are. But that's why he beats you - he plays on your field and wins. You'll see, he'll beat your paltry crew of Republican Candidates that can't shoot straight or put 2 sentences together without an "Oops" in there somewhere. Have a nice day.
Bydand76| 11.16.11 @ 11:20PM
The quick definition of Socialism is a political theory that supports state ownership of industry, productive capital and natural resources. Socialism also advocates social and economic equality.
Sounds pretty much like the Obamao in chief that we have right now there Purple...
Polish a turd and guess what? Its still a turd. You can obfuscate all you want and tell yourself otherwise but in the end you will be (just like every other failed liberal idea) wrong and history will paint you justifiably so.
Obama-care is by definition, Socialism.

Since the government won't own Healthcare, the insurance companies do and will, I guess you are very misinformed. Nice rant even though you don't know what you are talking about.
Now, Medicare - that is Socialism. And anyone on Medicare is glad of it. So you don't know what you're talking about again. Hardly a failed idea. Wanna try Social Security too? Hardly a failed idea. You have to pay for both, you have no choice, and you will enjoy the benefits when you reach the proper age, so shut about it.
mzk1| 11.17.11 @ 3:47PM
You're right. Obama's concept of controlling the economy through corporations is much closer to fascism. Happy?

Roy N.| 11.17.11 @ 12:48PM
Well said CHound. Some commentators indicate that they would rather take their ball and go home if they don't get their way. Newt is smarter, more conservative and more electablethan Willard. If you are sitting at home after election day 2012 and asking yourself why Obama got re-elected, remember who you voted or didn't vote for. Sitting out the election is akin to voting for some obscure third party candidate.

What we are undergoing right now is an Attack by hasbarets. Hasbara is the response of the Israeli Propaganda Ministry and other state organs to disrupt and stifle any ideas or discussion on the internet they don't like. Their main center is in Haifa, but they have people all over the world doing it, as well. You will notice that they do things like steal names, use a lot of obscenity, especially homosexual. They are trying to destroy an honest discussion here of the lack of merit and the vast number of flaws of their present favorite Newt [ love them and leave them ] Gingrich. They have been attacking Clint for quite a while. Well I didn't speak up and now they have turned their attention to me.
They have also hated and attacked Dr. Paul because of his America First Foreign policy. That would be a return to our traditional foreign policy of peace friendship and trade with all people, but no permanent entangling alliances. I close these remarks with this blessed phrases. Praise be Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. God bless His vicar on Earth the Pope.

There was a recent poll of tea party people. Paul got a low percentage.
Can't we have the primaries already so that we can show the obnoxious Paul-bots that his support is miniscule?
Doctor Right| 11.16.11 @ 12:38PM
So let me see if I get this straight, Jack...
People on this board (presumably including myself) are Agents of the Israeli Propaganda Ministry?
And the Israeli Propaganda Ministry considers this anonymous message board to be a threat?
And as such, they (we!) are actively seeking to suppress/defame IMPORTANT Americans (like you and Clint) who can do serious damage to their (our) cause?
Do I have that about right?
If so, may I please say
BWAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH!!!!

Jack in Wi| 11.16.11 @ 12:49PM
Yup Dr. Wrong you are a hasbaret. You defend Israel at every opportunity and use nonsense and lies to disrupt the disscussion. You are one of the most educated of the people here to do it but it is quite obvious you are one. Hasbarets can be any person who uses these tactics of disruption. You sir are a disrupter and name caller. If the people here want to know more about hasbara just google it . Praise Jesus. God bless the Pope. l Chaim. Shalom.
Margie| 11.16.11 @ 12:57PM
God doesn't bless the Pope. He's a fraud.

Are you a Pope worshipper, too?
Grzmlyk| 11.16.11 @ 4:52PM
I am areligious. I couldn't care less about the pope.
It's the rage that gets me, Margie. I read that entire thread from yesterday - Wow. The level of rage is flabbergasting.
You wrap yourself in it; you luxuriate in it; rage appears to be your sun in the morning and your moon at night. Blind, blind rage. And that's why you and Clint have more in common than you realize. You both love to hate and live to hate.
That's my opinion, and I'm sorry if you don't like it.
Margie| 11.16.11 @ 5:07PM
I see, so it's the rage that gets you.
So, if you were falsely accused of wanting to commit Adultery here by someone that's looked upon as an example of Christianity here, (if you were a Christian, and with Christians, trust is a HUGE thing), and this person was doing it to turn people against you as well, YOU wouldn't be OUTRAGED?
What if it were your own wife that this was happening to?
So outrage at horrible disgusting accusations is now sinful, is now a basis for unworthiness by you?
And as to Catholicism, it deserves all the anger it gets from me.. it's a false Religion and a cult.
As much as they use it against me, the more I will preach against it~ using the Scriptures to prove it.
Anger isn't sin, but cursing is. And I do suffer for it.
When up against the most blatant of liars and false accusations, and that to me personally~ you've seen the name calling Clint has used against me, VILE.
Do you expect me to just crawl away?
The Bible doesn't matter to these people, they're cult members. They refuse to believe the Scriptures and attack the messenger of them, instead.
It isn't hatred to speak the truth to the lies of a false Religion.
I don't care how many millions adhere to it.
And I don't care for your lumping me together with the filthy scumbag, Clint.
One of us is RIGHT and one is WRONG.
"Choose this day whom you will serve."
Nick| 11.17.11 @ 3:24AM
"Anger isn't sin, but cursing is."
Really, Margie?
The Gospel According to Saint Matthew, Chapter 5, Verses 21 - 22 :
"You have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not kill; and whoever kills shall be liable to judgment.' But I say to you that every one who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother shall be liable to the council, and whoever says, `You fool!' shall be liable to the hell of fire.
Please pray on this Scripture.
God Bless!
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 12:36PM
Well then, it's a good thing you're not my brother, isn't it?
Repent and believe the true Gospel of Jesus Christ, become my brother, and then you'll have the authority as a child of God.
John 3:3.

Papist Dan | 11.16.11 @ 4:47PM
The crazy Mullah Margie is at it again. Obsesed with the pope. You must really hate your parents who are Catholic and liberals. So we have to view your insanity every day because you have mommy issues.
Margie| 11.16.11 @ 5:09PM
Uhm, actually, YOU would be the one obsessed with the fraud who calls himself "Pope", not me.
Fool.
Repent and believe the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.
In His Gospel, there are NO Popes!
Papist Dan| 11.16.11 @ 5:46PM
Hey, idiot Margie, I use the word Papist as a joke on you since you call everyone who disagrees with you a papist. There is also another Dan here. God you are really dense.
POPE, POPE POPE POPE POPE POPE POPE!!!
Doctor Right| 11.16.11 @ 1:39PM
But that's where you're WRONG, Jack!
I don't want to suppress either you OR Clint!
If it was up to me, I'd give you guys your own reality TV Show!!
I think you guys are FANTASTIC!!! I mean, seriously...who would have thought that two total caricatures of paranoid-delusional right-wing conspiracy-laden nonsense would be actual walking-talking human beings?!?!?
I mean, consider the ratings!!! They'd be through the roof!
But on the downside (for you and Clint, at least), the damage it would do to Ron Paul's campaign would be substantial. If the rest of the public knew what total cranks and weirdos comprise the bulk of Paul's die-hard support, he couldn't get elected as a Post-Man.
So again, Jack...if you think I want to silence you, then I apologize profusely!!!
I would absolutely HATE IT if you and Clint stopped posting here, or were banned from the board (unlikely since TASOnline has very losse posting standards)!!!
You...complete me!
Please...stay!!!
L'Chaim!!!

Hey Doc
Jack, Clint and Margie are kids fooling around with us.
My kids are the same age and told me so.
Ignore them.
They aren't real people, just small groups of kids fooling around.
Margie| 11.16.11 @ 4:02PM
Excuse me?
Dr. Right agrees with me as to the Catholic Religion.
Will you now consign him to the same fate?
kate| 11.16.11 @ 4:36PM
My apologies. I don't know you. Be a reasonable person and I'll listen and learn. I don't hate anyone and I am appalled that I come to American Spectator and get hit with weird comments.
Margie| 11.16.11 @ 5:23PM
kate:
Apology accepted.
I try to be reasonable, but it's viewed by the Papists as "hatred" and "Bigotry", and am attacked for speaking the truth, according to the Bible.
Papist Dan's a lying coward Catholic Troll. He follows me around, using many screen names but always saying the same lies, but he already has his reward.. from God.
I try to tell him God throws liars like him into Hell, but it rolls off him like water off a duck's back.
It's what believing in a false Religion does to him.
He worships a man and not Christ. And it doesn't matter to him how many Scriptures are posted to his lies, he just keeps right on going.
He thinks the Pope is God on Earth, He believes the Pope's the mediator between God and man, instead of Jesus Christ.
Their Religion teaches them that praying to the dead is what they should do, when the Scripture forbids it.
Their Religion teaches them that Mary is the "Mother of God", when Scripture says there is no one else besides God as God.
This makes Mary part of the Divinity of Christ, then~ an abomination to God!
I'm just here to say the facts, according to Scripture!
God bless you, and welcome.
Papist Dan| 11.16.11 @ 5:47PM
Hey, idiot Margie, I use only one name. And I told you I will post a reply every time you post one of your stupid, bigoted remarks. Got that, Mullah?
Papist Dan| 11.16.11 @ 7:22PM
Margie,
You are truly stupid and a liar:
1. Catholics do not worship the Pope. Call your parents who are Catholics and ask them.
2. "Scripture says there is no one else besides God as God." Wrong. Jesus is God.
3. Mary is the mother of Jesus. Out of respect,not worship, she is referred to as the Mother of God because she is the mother of Jesus. Catholics do not believe that Mary is "Divinity." Call your parents and ask theme if Mary is God.
My God, you are either a blatant liar or truly stupid, I think both.
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 12:40PM
Really? I'm a liar when I say that the Scripture says there is no one else besides God as God?
OK~ once again you've just proven how stupid you are.
"I, I am the LORD, and besides Me there is no Savior." Is. 43:11.
Is that enough for you, or do you want more?
You are proof positive of an inorant. lying two-bit punk.
Got it, DTOM aka Dan Hirsch?
Now, go crawl back under your rock.
Papist Dan | 11.16.11 @ 4:49PM
Bigot Margie, Right has stated unequivocally he believes in the divinity of Jesus. You always evade and qualify, you don't believe that Jesus is God. You are not a true Christian. You're a fraud. Repent.
kate| 11.16.11 @ 5:05PM
Hey Papist
God hears us all. Quit making fun. please.
kate| 11.16.11 @ 5:39PM
Margie
I am not a Catholic, but many of my friends are. God is with us all, if we open our hearts and speak kindly towards each other, and give, give, give.
I pray that God helps all of the people of the earth. May we someday work and live in peace.
But I'm not a communist. :)
Papist Dan| 11.16.11 @ 5:49PM
Kate,
You must be new here. Read Margie's comments about Catholics and Ken for the past week, then get back to me.
She attacks everyone here who disagrees with her and calls them papist, liar, punk, burn in hell.
Try it, say something to her.
Margie| 11.16.11 @ 6:48PM
No you lying piece of work, I tell you, since you are a blatant liar, I tell you what God says He does with liars like you:
He throws them into Hell.
So get ready.
And, you're lying again. I have NEVER denied the Divinty of Christ, you screwball.
What I DENY is your false Religion's "Divinity"~ which includes Mary as Mother of od.
After all, since your Papists, and that's what they are, created out of their own fantasy minds, that Mary is Mother of God, that makes her God, it actually places her above God.
Therefore I reject outright that false teaching.
It's what ALL genuine Christians do.
Don't like it?
Too bad.
Idiot.
Papist Dan| 11.16.11 @ 7:26PM
Hey idiot Margie, read above. Mary is the mother of Jesus. Jesus is God. You deny that Jesus is God. You play word games about the divinity of Jesus. This does not make Mary God or "above" God.. You evade the question of the divinity of Jesus because you don't believe Jesus is God because in you limited mind you then believe Mary is "above " God.
You can't be this dense.
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 12:44PM
Ah, now there's the rub.
Your Papist teachers teach that, but it isn't Scriptural.
Mary is NOT the Mother of God, because GOD has no Mother.
Jesus is God's Son, and Mary bore Him.
Your cult has perverted the Scripture.
Your cult is not distinguishing between God and His Son, Jesus Christ.
Again, God has no Mother. See the above Scripture, and then REPENT, liar.
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 2:13PM
"For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth--as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"--
yet for us there is one God, the Father, from Whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through Whom are all things and through whom we exist." 1 Cor. 8:6.
Git, Papist liar?
One God, one Lord.
Like I said~ Repent and believe the TRUE Gospel of God. AS WRITTEN IN THE SCRIPTURES.
You know NOTHING, obviously.
kate| 11.16.11 @ 7:05PM

I already go to the Great Physician daily.
I also trust in His Word, thank you very much.
Repent, and believe the TRUE Gospel of God, according to the Bible, and not according to the false teachings of Catholicism.
Take two Scriptures and call Him in the morning.

Margie| 11.16.11 @ 5:29PM
Well, Gryz,
They said the Apostles were fools and that Jesus had a demon because they spoke the truth to lies.
I'd rather be considered foolish and "pathalogical" by you or anyone for that matter, than to cease speaking the truth from the Scriptures.
As a matter of fact, Jesus hates Religion.. have you ever read what he called the Pharisees?
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 1:39PM

Doctor Right| 11.16.11 @ 6:16PM
kate,
The mistake you're making is to approach what goes on in this forum from a rational perspective, when in fact, there's nothing rational to be found here.
Chaos reigns.
You have two post-era here, Jack and Clint, who are so bizarre and over-the-top in their hero-worship of Ron Paul that they've lost touch with reality.
Jack is a crank, pure and simple. The guy is wrapped tighter than a drum, and has an undisguised loathing for Israel and Jews that woul d be comical if he weren't so damned serious. Whatever image comes to mind when you hear the phrase "conspiracy nut", rest assured, Jack looks EXACTLY like that. You may not have noticed, but Jack actually accused his detractors on this board -today - of being Agents of the Israeli Propaganda Ministry! That's the type of mentality he represents.
Clint, however, is a total and complete moron, and I mean that sincerely. He's harmless, but annoying as hell. When he's not robo-posting the 7-8 posts about Ron Paul that he has saved on his computer, he's hurling the dumbest, most immature, 8th-grade insults at anyone who questions his Ron Paul "wisdom". He also likes to taunt people and challenge them to fights, secure in the knowledge that no rational person has the time or inclination to come find him and kick his ass. He's like the bratty kid who calls you names while he stands on his front porch. He's a total coward who risks nothing, in other words. He tries to intimidate by constantly talking about all the "manly" activities he engages in (wrestling, boxing, football, weight-lifting), but he's as transparent as cellophane.
Most of us gave-up long ago trying to discuss these articles in favor of arguing with Jack and Clint.
And really, can you blame us? Regardless of what separates most of us, we're all pretty much united in our opposition to Obama and the Left, so what is there to really talk about???
See? Chaos.
Hopefully, I helped you make sense of it all.
Stick around! Before long, Clint will call you an "Asshat", and Jack will call you a "neocon" (meaning "Jew"). Then you'll know you're among friends!
Papist Dan| 11.16.11 @ 7:30PM

Not pretending other than to compliment Doctor on his post. You are really insecure because of your stupidity and nobody here likes you. Now you try to suck up to Doctor and Occam. Good luck, idiot.

Your'e doing a terrific job preaching the Gospel.
Keep it up, girl!!
Jack in Wi| 11.16.11 @ 7:58PM
Dr. Wrong aka Harbaret numero uno here. I am a proud follower of Jesus Christ who lived in the most Jewish community in Wi. for many years. My kids all played with Jewish kids and my dughter went to the prom with a Jewish boy. I have Jewish relatives, who I haven't disowned. My late brother had a nice Jewish lady as his mistress for quite a few years. I liked her and got along fine with her. . Jewish kids ate at my house and my kids ate at theirs. I did a lot of business with Jewish bussines people and professionals and found them to be mostly honest.
I am here to debate the issues of war and peace. This country is headed for disaster and an another World War because of the fact that we have been following an Israel first Foreign policy. I want our troops home and our over seas bases closed. It should have been done 20 years ago. If it had been done we would have no debt or coming bankruptcy.
The reason I started writing aat ll on the internet is because I couldn't stand all the lies and BS, by people like you, pushing us into the Iraq war. I hasten to add that most Jews I know didn't want anything to do with Iraq. My whole goal here is the persue truth, work for peace, and get justice for the oppressed.
Shalom and L'Chaim are fine words. Peace and Life are far better words then war and death. Shalom.
Doctor Right| 11.16.11 @ 11:06PM
Jack,
Anyone who claims to be a "proud follower of Jesus Christ" but tolerates a brother with a Mistress is a hypocrite.
Jack in Wi| 11.17.11 @ 2:23AM
I talked my brother into returning to God and his Church on his death bed. He had as fine A Christian death as anyone could have. I expect to see him in heaven. Praise Jesus. The mistress was still a nice, if misguided lady.
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 1:41PM
How about claiming to be a proud worshipper of Christ but a worshipper of the Pope?
And how about claiming you're a Christian and not stepping in when they are ripping me to shreds, hmm, good Dr.?

Keep it up, girl.

"Harbaret" isn't a word. I mean, heck, I live in Israel, I would know. "Hasbara" means "explanation", prety naive, really. We have awful PR, bu tthe IDF channel sometimes has good stuff.
The only thing we have in our favor are facts. The only thing our enemies have is their favor are a complete willingness to lie, the willingness of the world MSM to ignore this fact, and a great deal of oil money.
kate| 11.20.11 @ 6:05PM
Thanks dear Sir
I'm not that uptight. I fully understand why people blog.
We are frustrated and looking for a place to "vent".
An angry post or two does not bother me.
Some people don't understand that we are all going to go through stresses in our lives.
I have found some very intelligent, insightful comments in response to my comments on this site.
I happen to be very worried about my country, my family and the very direction the world is taking right now.
We all enjoy discourse with like minds, whether they be conservative or liberal.
It is the american way after all.
I'll stick around, but I don't think I can solve every problem.
The best thing is to ignore the emotionally needy, get to the subject, and not let them take over.
OWS fine, but don't be .... crude and disrespectful of your fellow human beings, or else your words and actions mean nothing.

Look At This First Primary In Iowa.
Conservative Woman Are Falling Off The Hermanator's Sled, Gingrich Has A Ton OF Baggage Coming Out Now To The Voters And Romney has Peaked.
The Tea Party Has Changed The Dynamics Of Electoral Politics.
Dr.Ron Paul Is Right Where We Moved Him. We Are Pacing This Election.
GOP Candidates in Four-Way Dead Heat
Herman Cain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich are in a dead heat as the top choices for Iowans likely to attend the Jan. 3 Republican presidential caucuses.
A Bloomberg News poll shows Cain at 20 percent, Paul at 19 percent, Romney at 18 percent and Gingrich at 17 percent among the likely attendees with the caucuses that start the nominating contests seven weeks away"
The Tea Party Rebellion Is Here.
Doctor Right| 11.16.11 @ 12:40PM

Praise be Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. Ron Paul is second in New Hampshire as well. This is according to the newest Bloomberg poll. He is still well behind Mitt Romney, But he is well head of the worthless duo of Herm and Newt. New Hamshire is notorious in going for anti war candidates. I predict right now Ron carries New Hampshire. I have long stated that Ron Paul and Willard Romney are the only 2 who can beat Obama. It is long past time for these men to have honest debates about the future of this country and the Republican Party. Then lets have the primaries, an honest and open convention, and see if we can re- unite the party and beat Obama.
The Washington Post is reporting that Newt Gingrich recieved between 1.6 million and 1.8 million in consulting fees from Fannie Mae since he was thrown out of his Speakership. Newt is a disgrace. He was using his influence to get one of the most corrupt outfits around to fund and suppliment his lavish pension and lifestyle. Newt is burnt toast.

Wow, when did it become acceptable to become so racist? Just because as members of the right we have been called racists, we should not make it a reality.
Jews are good and evil; it's is immoral and intellectually dishonest to assume or promote any race or sect as good or evil. Don't we all have the proclivity of good and evil? Will not the right circumstances make most of us behave in an evil way?
It should always be principles above personalities (or race and religion). I don't believe that all Muslims are evil either. But those that say they want to kill all the non-believers, I have an obligation to take them at their word.
Just because some evil bankers are Jewish, does not make all bankers evil or Jewish. Some folks need a lesson in logical thinking.

Then, Sir, can you please explain to this crowd that politics is the art of compromise, and what the value of compromise is in our multi-cultural society?
W.T. Foxtrot| 11.16.11 @ 1:46PM
I don't believe in "the art of compromise."
You compromise when you negotiate, and the only way to negotiate is from a position of strength. When you have enough strength, then there's nothing to negotiate.
Although I despise the Democrats that I deal with on a regular basis, that's one thing I will credit them for:
They understand the power of POWER.
When they controlled both Houses of Congress, they went forth with their agenda regardless of whether or not our side or the public whined and complained. That's because they knew they did NOT have to care about opposing POV's, because they had the POWER to ignore it.
Our side never learns from this example. That's because, by and large, we're wimps.
And multi-cultural is irrlevant, as well as just plain dumb.
We have one (1) culture: America. Those who come here need to learn our ways or get the hell out. Period.
That's probably not the answer you were hoping for, but at least you can see why my Party in Virginia repeatedly denies me Committee Chairmanships and other high-profile positions - I DON'T mince words or play games.
Purpleguy| 11.16.11 @ 2:28PM
"When they controlled both Houses of Congress, they went forth with their agenda regardless of whether or not our side or the public whined and complained. That's because they knew they did NOT have to care about opposing POV's, because they had the POWER to ignore it." -Well, Sir, you're side showed them how during the 90's and even more so during the 2000's ... so don't whine when you get back what you gave now. It works both ways ... so don't abuse your power when you have it and then they won't either.
"I DON'T mince words or play games." - then you Sir are not a true politician nor statesman, but a political hack that does not need to be in a position of authority over the rest of us. The sooner the country wakes up and realizes this isn't a d* football game where you want your team to win at all costs, the better off we'll all be. It's just plain stupid to take a stance and be unmovable. Didn't your mother teach you to share? Good Grief, I'd a thought you learned that by the time you were 5. Here's hoping you're thrown out of office for a more level-headed person, R or D or I.
W.T. Foxtrot| 11.16.11 @ 3:39PM
Whatever, sonny.
The idea that compromise = statesmanship may sound cute in Poli-Sci 101, but it has no relevance in the real world.
And pols like me - who aren't afraid to speak the truth, and who live by REAL convictions - are on the ascendency. Maybe you haven't noticed that the professional political class are not held in high esteem, anymore?
And as regards to my tenure in office, my district re-elected me last November by a margin of 71% - 28%. The Liberal panty-waist who ran against me sounded a lot like you. In other words, full of shit.
If my Constituency throws me out of office, I accept their decision. But as I'm planning a run for the US Congress (I'm only 38) in a few years, chances are you haven't heard the last of me...Not by a long-shot.

If you, Sir, are a Virginia Assemblyman for real, you are one sad case of an example. You call names, cannot write intelligently and swear. Really? It's a sad commentary on Virginia to have your small-minded kind elected or as you say "on the ascendancy", just waiting to abuse the system and crow that you got away with it. Unfortunately for you, your kind "on the ascendancy" has been occurring over the last 30 years and the American people are starting to wake up and see who you people really are. When you respond to me the way you did, who's to say you don't to everyone else, including your constituents. You have a lot to learn, which at 38 is getting a little late for you, don't you think? I learned these things by the time I was 16.

Or as classy as the late Senator from West Virginia who was in the Ku Klux Klan...
Or as classy as the late Senator from Massachusetts who drowned his girlfriend. Z
...But they were all Democrats, so I'm at a disadvantage.
And FYI, the "new breed" I represent is united by our total disdain for the Left, and our refusal to play the game on their terms anymore.
We're what you might call "In your face" Conservatives.

Jack, Why do you think your comments have any relevance?
Ron Paul, and those like you who support his policies, would have the rest of us believe he stands for a strong defense of America. Defended by who Jack? You?
By your own admission, you boast of being a coward whose father extolled the virtues of being a coward.
How ironic it is that you fail to understand that America and your right to slander it with your vile, daily displays of ignorance will always be left to the defense of other, better men.
Let me ask you Jack, in your world, did the bully on the playground ever leave other people alone because they were simply minding their own business?
Since you are intelligent, but cruel, my guess is you wound up one of the bullies lackeys to protect yourself from him. Oh I know he hit you once in a while, but it was worth it wasn't it Jack? After all he never hit you as hard as he did the other kids you taunted on the bullies behalf.
Im curious Jack, I'm retired and don't spend anywhere near the time you do writing on this site. Where do you find the time? Do you depend on others for your protection as well as your livelihood?

Jack's inspiration:
Es ist auch für den unbelehrbarsten Gegner der nationalsozialistischen Bewegung nurmehr sehr schwer möglich, die Erfolge des neuen Regimes wenigstens auf gewissen Gebieten so wie dies bis vor einigen Jahren geschah, auch heute noch übersehen zu können oder glatt abzustreiten. Die Taten sprechen zu sehr für sich. Die Herstellung einer innerlich verbundenen deutschen Volksgemeinschaft, die Wiederaufrichtung des deutschen Selbstbewußt-seins, die Stärkung der deutschen Macht, die Ausweitung des Reichsgebietes sind weder wegzureden noch wegzuleugnen. Der wirtschaftliche Zusammenbruch blieb trotz aller Prophezeihungen und des kaum zu verbergenden Hoffens aus. Die Versorgung des deutschen Volkes mit Lebensmitteln und Gebrauchsgütern darf trotz des bekannten ungenügenden Lebensraumes als gesichert _ gelten. Der Kampf gegen die Erwerbslosigkeit endete mit einem Erfolg, der für die demokratischen Länder um so verblüffender ist, als ihnen selbst die Lösung dieses Problems zum großen Teil versagt blieb. Der Vierjahresplan versetzt in den Ergebnissen der wissenschaftlichen Forschung sowohl als in der anlaufenden oder schon sichergestellten Produktion die übrige Welt teils in bewundernde Anerkennung, teils in verbissenes Schweigen. Selbst auf dem Gebiet der allgemeinen sozialen Fürsorge blickt man mit betroffener Nachdenklichkeit auf die Leistungen des neuen Reiches.
Ja, es scheint sogar an manchen Orten die Erkenntnis aufzudämmern, daß sich das nationalsozialistische Deutschland die innere Zustimmung des deutschen Volkes in einem wesentlich größeren Ausmaß errungen hat, als es die Regierungen demokratischer Plutokratien für sich so gerne wahrhaben möchten. Die schroffste Ablehnung, die der nationalsozialistische Staat innen und außen trotz alledem auch heute noch erfährt, stammt aus Kreisen jener, die weder mit dem deutschen Volk oder mit seinem Leben, noch mit den Interessen anderer Völker etwas zu tun haben: aus dem Lager des internationalen Judentums!
Wenn ich diese Feststellungen treffe, dann lasse ich deshalb jene mehr dumm als gemein zu nennende Lügenhaftigkeit gewisser internationaler Presseorgane außer acht, die in ihrem krankhaften jüdischen Haß gegen das deutsche Volk zu so witzlosen Behauptungen oder Verleumdungen greifen, daß sie zumeist schon wenige. Wochen später auch für den Einfältigsten ihre Widerlegungen zu erfahren pflegen. Das einzige Gebiet, auf dem man heute noch glaubt, mit Erfolg gegen das neue Reich ankämpfen zu können, ist das kulturelle. Hier versucht man, unter einem stets wirksamen Appell an die durch keinerlei Kenntnisse getrübte Rührseligkeit der demokratischen Weltbürger den deutschen Kulturverfall zu beklagen, das heißt, die geschäftliche Stillegung jener Elemente zu bejammern, die als die Verkünder und Exponenten der November-Republik dem Zwischenreich ihre ebenso unnatürlichen wie kläglichen kulturellen Charakterzüge aufzwangen und nunmehr ihre Rolle ausgespielt haben.
Nachdem es sich auch hier im wesentlichen um Juden handelt, die ja unserem deutschen Volke auf keinen Fall näher stehen als den Engländern, Franzosen usw., ja im Gegenteil infolge ihrer welt-bürgerlichen Veredelung von vornherein mehr in das Lager der Demokratien passen müßten, sollte man eigentlich annehmen, daß der unbesonnene Ausstoß dieser gottbegnadeten kulturträchtigen Elemente aus dem Dritten Reich gerade von den kulturbeflissenen, parlamentarisch-demokratischen Staaten als erfreulicher eigener Gewinn angesehen werden würde. Allein, dem ist nicht so. So hitzig sie im Wehklagen über die Verarmung des deutschen Kulturlebens sind, so kühl bedächtig sind sie in der Über- und Aufnahme der dadurch endlich frei gewordenen Repräsentanten eines wahrhaft höheren kulturellen und zivilisatorischen Menschentums. Daraus geht wohl auch hier hervor, daß der ganze aufgeregte Jammer der internationalen demokratischen Gazetten usw. über den deutschen Kulturverfall ein genau so aufgeregter Schwindel ist wie so viele andere Offenbarungen aus dieser Welt.
Im übrigen aber sprechen glücklicherweise trotz der für kulturelle Arbeiten so kurz bemessenen Zeit der nationalsozialistischen Staatsführung auch hier die positiven Taten schwerer als jede negative Kritik. Wir Deutsche können heute mit Recht von einem neu erwachenden kulturellen Leben sprechen, und zwar findet dieses kulturelle Erwachen seine Bestätigung nicht durch gegenseitige Komplimente und literarische Phrasen, als vielmehr durch die positiven Dokumente kultureller Schöpferkraft.
Die deutsche Baukunst, Bildhauerei, Malerei, unsere Theater usw., sie erbringen heute den dokumentarischen Nachweis für eine künstlerische Schaffensperiode, wie sie nur in wenigen Zeitläuften der Geschichte ähnlich reich und stürmisch vorhanden war.
Und wenn die jüdisch-demokratischen Pressemacher heute noch mit eiserner Stirn die Tatsachen von unten nach oben umzukehren versuchen, so wissen wir doch, daß sich die deutschen kulturellen Leistungen in wenigen Jahren ihre Weltbeachtung und -bewertung noch viel uneingeschränkter errungen haben werden, als dies bei unseren Arbeiten auf dem materiellen Gebiet schon jetzt der Fall ist.
Die Bauwerke, die im heutigen Reich entstehen, werden eine dauerhaftere und vor allem eindringlichere Sprache führen als das Gemauschel unserer demokratischen internationalen Kulturbegutachter. Was sich diese armseligen Wichte von ihren Fingern ab-schrieben und -schreiben, wird — vielleicht sogar leider — die Welt wie so vieles andere bald restlos vergessen haben. Die gigantischen Werke im Zeichen der kulturellen Aufrichtung des Dritten Reiches werden aber einst zum unveräußerlichen Kulturgut der abendländischen Welt gehören, genau so, wie es die großen Kulturleistungen dieser Welt in der Vergangenheit heute für uns sind.
Im übrigen ist es natürlich gar nicht entscheidend, ob und wie fremde Völker zu unseren kulturellen Arbeiten Stellung nehmen, denn wir sind uns darin nicht im Zweifel, daß die kulturelle Schöpfung als die feinfühligste Äußerung einer blutmäßig bedingten Veranlagung von nicht-bluteigenen oder verwandten Einzelwesen oder Rassen überhaupt nicht verstanden und damit noch viel weniger gewertet werden kann. Wir bemühen und daher auch nicht, dem internationalen Judentum etwa die deutsche Kunst und Kultur schmackhaft zu machen.
Wir wissen, daß, wenn je ein Jude eine innere Stellung zu dieser unserer deutsch-arischen Kultur gefunden hat oder in der Zukunft finden würde, dies nur dem Umstand zuzuschreiben sein könnte, daß in den Stammbaum dieses Ahasver durch Zufall oder Mißgeschick einmal ein Tropfen fremden Blutes kam, das nunmehr gegen den Juden selbst zu zeugen beginnt. Die große Masse des Judentums aber ist als Rasse selbst kulturell gänzlich unproduktiv, sie wird sich daher auch verständlicherweise zu den Lebensäußerungen primitiver Negerstämme mehr hingezogen fühlen als zu den kulturell hochstehenden Arbeiten und Werken wahrhaft schöpferischer Rassen.
Es ist daher – wie schon betont – die Zustimmung oder Ablehnung aus diesen jüdisch-marxistisch-demokratisch-internationalen Kreisen zu unserer Kulturpolitik für die Richtigkeit oder Unrichtigkeit unseres Handelns, den Wert oder Unwert unserer Leistungen nicht nur nicht entscheidend, sondern gänzlich belanglos. Viel wichtiger bleibt demgegenüber die Stellungnahme unseres eigenen Volkes. Denn seine Anteilnahme oder Ablehnung ist die allein für uns als gültig anzusehende Beurteilung der Richtigkeit unseres kulturellen Schaffens. Und ich will dabei einen Unterschied machen zwischen dem Volk, das heißt der gesunden blutvollen und volkstreuen Masse der Deutschen, und einer unzuverlässigen, weil nur bedingt blutgebundenen dekadenten sogenannten „Gesellschaft”. Sie wird manchesmal gedankenlos als „Oberschicht” bezeichnet, während sie in Wirklichkeit nur das Auswurfergebnis einer blutmäßig und gedanklich kosmopolitisch infizierten und damit haltlos gewordenen gesellschaftlichen Fehlzüchtung ist.
Ich mache vor allem einen Unterschied zwischen dem natürlich primitiv gesunden Empfinden dieses Volkes und der geistreicheln-den Blasiertheit, die es sich rühmt, anders zu sein, als es die nor-malen Menschen nun einmal Gott sei Lob und Dank sind. Soweit ich aber nun vom wirklichen Volk rede, wird niemand bestreiten, daß es uns gelungen ist, in wenigen Jahren zwischen der deutschen Kunst und diesem deutschen Volk wieder eine innige Verbundenheit herzustellen. In unseren Theatern sitzen Millionen und Millionen deutsche Menschen und erfreuen sich an der Sprache unserer Dichter und an dem Klingen einer ewig schönen Musik. Vor unseren Bauwerken stehen diese selben Millionen in bewundernder Aufgeschlossenheit und sind glücklich, ihrem Stolz über diese großen und erhabenen nationalen Leistungen Ausdruck geben zu können. Unsere neuen Denkmäler werden von diesem Volk bejaht. Durch die Säle unserer Kunstausstellungen drängen sich Hunderttausende und Hunderttausende und begleiten so das Schaffen unserer Maler in ebenso gebannter wie zustimmender Aufmerksamkeit.
Darin aber können wir den Beweis für die Richtigkeit der eingeschlagenen deutschen Kulturpolitik sehen. Denn wenn auch jede gottbegnadete kulturelle Leistung in ihrer Entstehung einem einzelnen zu verdanken ist, dann enthüllt doch die Flamme, die aus diesem einzelnen schlägt, eine Offenbarung, die alle unbewußt in sich tragen. Im Augenblick, in dem sie der Öffentlichkeit durch den einen zuteil wird, ist sie allen zu eigen, weil sie von jeher aller eigen war. Sie braucht diesem Volk dann nicht aufgeredet und literarisch erläutert zu werden.
Es ist, als ob Millionen Menschen gewartet hätten auf diese Verkündung einer ihnen im Unterbewußtsein wie von jeher vorschwebenden künstlerischen Offenbarung. So groß ist die Übereinstimmung zwischen dem Gefühl und Empfinden des Volkes und der sich vollziehenden oder enthüllenden künstlerischen Tat, daß das Volk manches Mal nur zu leicht die Taten behält und die Schöpfer vergißt. Die größten Bauwerke der Völker sind laute Ruhmestempel für sie, aber nur zu oft stumme Zeugen für ihre vergessenen unbekannten Meister. Man sieht in diesen Werken etwas nahezu gottgewollt Selbstverständliches. So lebt der einzelne schöpferische Künstler in der gleich gestimmten Veranlagung aller.
Diese tiefe innere Übereinstimmung zwischen dem gesunden Kern eines Volkes und den kulturell großen Leistungen steht in schärf-stem Gegensatz zu jener Kunst, die entweder überhaupt nur der Selbstbefriedigung der Fabrikanten dient oder — was noch viel öfter der Fall ist — eine Kollektivbegebenheit darstellt zwischen dem Kunstproduzenten, dem Kunstkonsumenten und dem Händler, das heißt in diesem Fall dem einzigen, wenn schon nicht kulturell, so aber um so mehr materiell Gewinnenden; dieser stellt dafür die so wichtigen Beziehungen zwischen dem Produzenten und Konsumenten her, das heißt, er organisiert jene Kunstkritik, die nichts mehr zu tun hat mit der Betrachtung oder gar Beurteilung künstlerischer Leistungen, als vielmehr in der Vorbereitung der Marktfähigkeit des Produktes oder in der Aufhebung dieser Marktfähigkeit die ausschließliche Aufgabe sieht. Das Getriebe oder besser das Geschiebe dieser Kunstmacher haben wir in Deutschland jahrzehntelang beobachten können. Es wird in wenigen Jahren vollkommen vergessen sein. Denn der minderwertigen Moral dieses ganzen Betriebes entsprach die Qualität und damit auch die Dauerhaftigkeit der Produkte. Das Volk aber hatte an diesen Vorgängen überhaupt keinen inneren Anteil.
Freilich, wenn eine dekadente Gesellschaftsschicht den höchsten Nachweis ihres Wertes darin sieht, mit dem Volke nichts zu tun zu haben, mag dies für diese Art von Kunstbetrieb zumindest so lange nützlich sein, als diese Gesellschaftsschicht sich im Besitz der materiellen Mittel befindet. Denn letzten Endes kommt es ja bei diesem Betrug ohnehin auf etwas anderes nicht an. Nur dort, wo man auf das Volk nicht Verzicht leisten konnte, weil in ihm allein auch der Träger der finanziellen Erhaltung zu sehen war, mußte man sich wohl oder übel zu Konzessionen bequemen.
Denn dieses Volk begann ansonsten zu streiken. Die verrückten Bilder hat es ohnehin nie gekauft. Die konnte man nur einer finanziell reichen, aber kulturell blödseligen Schicht von Emporkömmlingen, Spießern oder dekadenten Hohlköpfen aufschwatzen. Die Theater aber z. B., die mußte das Volk füllen, und diese wurden allmählich leer. Die Ausstellungen verloren die Besucher. Von den an sich ja sehr unbedeutenden öffentlichen Bauten nahm die breite Masse keine Notiz. Aber nicht etwa, weil sie an sich keine Stellung zur Kunst hatte und daher kein Interesse daran vorhanden war, sondern im Gegenteil, weil sie der einzige gesunde Kern unseres Volkes war, der dazu überhaupt noch eine unverdorbene Einstellung besaß.
Wie sehr das Volk an den künstlerischen Leistungen einer Zeit Anteil nehmen kann, wissen wir aus zahlreichen Beispielen der Vergangenheit und erleben es aus ebenso vielen beglückenden Anzeichen der Gegenwart. Die größten Meisterwerke der antiken Baukunst, die Leistungen ihrer Bildhauerei und Malerei galten als Nationaleigentum, ja als Nationalheiligtümer, aber nicht infolge irgendeines kaufmännischen Wertes, der etwa den von den heutigen Händlern gemachten Marktpreisen entsprochen haben könnte, nein, sondern nfolge der inneren Anteilnahme, in der ein ganzes Volk, ja damals ein ganzer Staat, Geburt und Werden eines solchen Werkes verfolgt und erlebt hatte.
Und dies war in den Epochen der mittelalterlichen Kunst nicht anders. Die großen Künstler aber waren in solchen Zeiten die Lieblinge des Volkes, die einzig wirklichen Könige von Gottes Gnaden, weil in ihnen die sonst so stumme Seele eines Volkes die Kraft einer durch Gott begnadeten Äußerung erfuhr.
Es ist aber daher auch nur zu verständlich, daß nicht nur das Volk eine innere Anteilnahme zu seiner wirklichen Kunst zu allen Zeiten besessen hat, sondern daß umgekehrt auch die Künstler in innerster Anteilnahme all dem gegenüberstanden, was die Völker erlebten, das heißt, was die Menschen im Fühlen, Denken und Handeln be-herrschte. Und dies nicht nur in dem mehr bildhaften Sinn, daß der Ablauf des einzelnen menschlichen Lebens in Glück und Unglück, Reichtum und Armut, Höhe oder Niedertracht, Liebe und Haß seine Motive abgab für die Erprobung der künstlerischen Kraft des Dichters, Sängers oder Bildners, daß sich aus des Volkes Kampf die Helden abhoben und so für den beschreibenden Dichter, den gestaltenden Plastiker, den Maler oder den Dramatiker den lebensvollen Vorwurf lieferten. Nein! Die Kunst war stets im Gesamten ihrer Zeit verpflichtet. Sie mußte dem Geist ihrer Zeit dienen und gehorchen, oder es gab keine Kunst. Ja, noch mehr: Sie stand darüber hinaus überhaupt im Dienste der Aufgaben dieser Zeit und half damit selbst an ihrer Gestaltung mit und ebenso an ihrer Ausprägung. Das Wesen ihres Wirkens liegt nicht in der rein beschaulichen Wiedergabe des Inhaltes und Ablaufes, als vielmehr in der eindrucksvollsten Demonstration der Kräfte und Ideale eines Zeitalters, mögen diese nun religiöser, kultureller, politischer Herkunft sein, oder mögen sie aus einer neu gewordenen Gesamtschau stammen, die ihre Wurzel in der Erkenntnis eines ewigen Gesetzes hat, das dem Menschen bisher als Theorie vielleicht verborgen geblieben war, als unbewußte oder geahnte Kraft ihn aber in seinem ganzen Dasein und seinem Lebenskampf stets beherrschte.
So ist die Kunst des Griechentums nicht nur eine formelle Wiedergabe griechischer Lebensgestaltung oder griechischer Landschaf-ten und ihrer Menschen, nein, sie ist eine Proklamation des griechischen Körpers und Geistes an sich. Durch sie wird nicht Propaganda geleistet für ein einzelnes Werk, ein Sujet oder den Künstler, sondern Propaganda geleistet für die im Griechentum uns gegen-übertretende griechische Welt als solche. Ein Kulturideal steht vor uns auf, das uns dank seiner Kunst und unserer eigenen blutmäßig verwandten Herkunft auch heute noch eine zwingende Vorstellung vermittelt von einer der schönsten Epochen der menschlichen Entwicklung und deren lichtvollsten Trägern.
Und genau so zeugt die römische Kunst für die imperiale Macht des Römischen, der römischen Welt.
Der artfremd werdende Charakter derselben römischen Kunst fällt nicht durch Zufall zusammen mit der gesellschaftlichen Entartung und dem daraus resultierenden allmählichen Zusammenbruch des antiken Weltreichs.
Ebenso aber sehen wir in der christlichen Kunst den Herold eines Zeitalters, das in seinem gesamten Wesen, seinen Vorstellungen, seinem Denken und Handeln einen wahrhaft schlagenden Ausdruck findet in seinen Kirchen, seinen Skulpturen, seinen Bildwerken, seiner Musik usw., und darüber hinaus in der sonstigen gesamten künstlerischen Behandlung des allgemeinen Lebens.
Es wird daher heute die Kunst aber ebenso der Herold und Künder jener gesamten Geisteshaltung und Lebensauffassung sein, die die jetzige Zeit bestimmen und beherrschen.
Und dies nicht nur deshalb, weil diese Zeit den Künstlern die Aufträge erteilt, sondern weil die Ausführung dieser Aufträge nur dann auf Verständnis stoßen kann, wenn sich in ihr das Wesen des Geistes dieser Zeit offenbart. Der Mystizismus des Christentums forderte in seiner verinnerlichsten Form und Periode eine architektonische Gestaltung der gestellten Bauaufgaben, die dem Zeitgeist nicht nur nicht widersprach, sondern die im Gegenteil mithalf, jenes geheimnisvolle Dunkel zu erzielen, das den Menschen bereiter sein ließ, der Weltverneinung zu gehorchen.
Der aufkeimende Protest gegen die jahrhundertelange Vergewaltigung der Freiheit der Seele und des Willens findet sofort den Weg zu neuen Ausdrucksformen des künstlerischen Gestaltens. Die mystische Enge und Düsterkeit der Dome begann zu weichen, und entsprechend dem freieren Geistesleben öffneten sich die Räume zu lichten Weiten. Das mystische Halbdunkel wich einer zunehmen-den Helle. Der unsicher tastende Übergang des 19. Jahrhunderts führte endlich in unserer Zeit zu jener Krise, die, so oder so, ihre Lösung finden mußte. Entweder das Judentum konnte mit seinem bolschewistischen Ansturm die arischen Staaten zerschlagen und die blutbedingten führenden eigenen Volksschichten ausrotten, dann mußte die aus diesen Wurzeln bisher erwachsene Kultur der gleichen Vernichtung entgegengeführt werden.
Wenn schon der Herzog fallen muß, weil der Mantel fällt, dann noch viel mehr der Mantel, wenn erst der Herzog stürzt. Wie alle diese Prozesse sich nicht in schlagartigen Ereignissen abspielen, so ist auch die versuchte Entthronung und Vernichtung der arischen Staaten und ihrer volkseigenen Führungen durch den jüdischen Weltfeind nicht ein Geschehnis von wenigen Wochen oder Monaten, sondern ein langwieriger Prozeß, bei dem wie bei anderen geschichtlichen Entscheidungskämpfen ein Höhepunkt der Krise eintritt, in dem dann nach der einen oder anderen Seite endgültig die Würfel fallen. Diesen Kampf um die Macht hat das Judentum auch in unserem Staat über 100 Jahre gekämpft. Dafür hat es gerungen, sich zahlreicher Einrichtungen bemächtigt, andere Institutionen zerstört oder wenigstens angefressen und nicht zuletzt auch das kulturelle Leben nach seinen Bedürfnissen auszurichten versucht. Die Kunst dieser Periode war der schlagenste Ausdruck der politischen Tendenz dieser Zeit und so, wie diese dekompositiv war, wirkte auch die Kunst im gleichen Sinne. Ihre Erscheinungsformen entsprachen der politischen Weltauffassung, das heißt der uns bekannten Zielsetzung des Ferments der Dekomposition der Völker und Rassen, wie Mommsen das Judentum bezeichnete.
Hätte in Deutschland der Nationalsozialismus nicht in letzter Stun-de gesiegt und den jüdischen Weltfeind zu Boden geworfen, dann würde entsprechend der vom Judentum beabsichtigten Entwertung unseres Volkes, politisch und menschlich gesehen, auch die Entwertung, weil Entfremdung unserer Kunst, planmäßig fortgeschritten sein. Es ist aber daher selbstverständlich, daß nach unserem Sieg die deutsche Kunst — und erst seitdem können wir überhaupt wieder von einer solchen reden — ihre innersten Impulse aus jener Auffassungswelt empfängt und empfangen muß, der die national-sozialistische Revolution zum Durchbruch und Sieg verholfen hat. Da der Sinn dieser nationalsozialistischen Revolution nun aber keineswegs eine Zerstörung der übernommenen Werte unseres bisherigen geschichtlichen Lebens ist, kann es auch nicht die Aufgabe der heutigen deutschen Kunst sein, in erster Linie die negative Einstellung zur Vergangenheit zu betonen, als vielmehr dem Gesamtkulturgut unseres Volkes, das als künstlerisches Erbe über das an-gesammelte Kulturvermögen unserer blutbedingten Erbmasse ist, einen eigenen neuen Beitrag anzufügen. Denn es gibt keine neue Kultur auf dieser Welt, so wenig als es eine neue Sprache gibt oder gar etwa ein neues Volk. Die Kultur einer Nation ist der angesammelte Reichtum kultureller Schöpfungen von Jahrtausenden. Die Größe eines kulturellen Zeitalters kann nicht gemessen werden am Umfang der Ablehnung früherer kultureller Leistungen, als vielmehr am Umfang eines eigenen kulturellen Beitrags, von dem sich erwarten läßt, daß er von den Nachkommen als genügend wertvoll angesehen wird, dem gesamten Kulturschatz endgültig eingegliedert und damit wieder weitervererbt zu werden.
Es ist dabei verständlich, daß ein Volk entsprechend der im Laufe seiner geschichtlichen Entwicklung stattfindenden Berührung mit anderen und verwandten Völkern nicht nur eine fortgesetzte Bereicherung seiner abstrakten Wissensgüter aufnimmt, sondern auch eine Anreicherung seiner kulturellen Schätze erfährt. Und dies nicht nur in einem etwa materiellen Sinn gesehen durch die Übernahme oder den Erwerb von Kunstwerken, sondern noch mehr durch die infolge der Berührung mit einer so verwandten umliegenden Welt stattfindende allgemeine und besondere kulturelle Befruchtung. Und dies ist niemals eine Schande, denn auf die Dauer wird ein Volk ein scheinbar fremdes Kulturgut ohnehin nur dann übernehmen und behalten, wenn die Schöpfer und Träger wohl vielleicht sprachlich, politisch, zeitlich verschieden oder getrennt, blutmäßig aber gleich bedingt waren oder sind. Dieser aus volklich eigener Schöpferkraft und verwandtem Kulturschaffen aufgespeicherten gesamtkulturellen Erbmasse einen eigenen Bei-trag anzufügen, muß der Stolz und der Ehrgeiz jedes anständigen Zeitalters und damit jedes Zeitgenossen sein, wobei wir uns in keinem Augenblick darüber einer Täuschung hingeben, daß genau so wie in der Vergangenheit aus einer Vielzahl kultureller Arbeiten nur ein Bruchteil erhalten wurde, auch von unseren Leistungen nur ein Bruchteil von der Zukunft übernommen werden wird. Entscheidend ist nur, daß dieser Bruchteil einer zahlenmäßig umfangreichen Produktion einen Höchstwert für sich im einzelnen darstellt.
So gleicht der kulturelle Weg eines Volkes der Milchstraße des Firmaments. Aus Myriaden von vorhandenen blassen Körpern leuchten einzelne helle Sonnen. Allein Planeten und Sonnen bestehen aus einer Substanz und gehorchen den gleichen Gesetzen: Die gesamte kulturelle Arbeit eines Volkes hat nicht nur nach einem Auftrag zu erfolgen, sondern in einem Geist stattzufinden. Und die Genies sollen daher nicht als das Abnormale gelten, sondern müssen nur die überragenden Ausnahmen sein, das heißt, ihre Werke haben durch die ihnen eigene zwingende Überlegenheit so sehr an Helligkeit zu gewinnen, daß sie die anderen gleichgearteten Leistungen überstrahlen und so die gesunde Masse eines Volkes in kurzer Zeit wie selbstverständlich in den Bann ihrer Leuchtkraft ziehen. Somit treten nicht nur der Staat oder eine andere Gemeinschaft oder auch der einzelne beim Kunstwerk als Auftraggeber in Erscheinung, sondern über allem die Erkenntnisse und Auffassungen der gesamten Geistes- und Lebenshaltung, die ein Volk in dieser Zeit beherrschen. Sie fixieren auch die wirkliche Absicht des Auftrages, und dieser inneren Absicht hat der Künstler dann zu dienen. Sein Werk wird damit mehr als eine bloß äußere Erfüllung einer ihm gestellten Aufgabe, es wird, so wie es geboren ist, ein mittragendes, ja mitgestaltendes Element des Geistes des Auftrags, das heißt des Gehaltes des Wollens und der Ziele seiner Zeit sein.
Es ist nun stets der Beweis für die innere Begnadung des wahr-haften Künstlers, diesen auch ihn erfassenden Gesamtwillen einer Zeit in seinem Kunstwerk auszudrücken. Vielleicht mag dies für alle am leichtesten sichtbar bei den Werken der Baukunst gelingen. Hier ist unmittelbar zu erkennen, wie sehr schon der Auftrag die innere Haltung und äußere Form einer Lösung bedingt. Die religiöse, innerlich zugewandte mystische Welt des christlichen Mittelalters hat Ausdrucksformen gefunden, die nur für diese Zeit allein möglich, ja auch nützlich sind.
Ein gotisches Stadion ist genau so undenkbar wie ein romanischer Bahnhof oder eine byzantinische Markthalle. Die Art, in der der Künstler des Mittelalters und der Zeit des Anfangs der neueren Zeit die künstlerische Lösung für die ihm aufgetragenen Bauten fand, ist schlechterdings schlagend und bewundernswert. Sie spricht nicht für das absolut Richtige oder Unrichtige des Lebensgehaltes dieser Zeit an sich, sondern sie spricht nur für die richtige Wiedergabe des nun einmal gewesenen inneren Zustandes dieser Zeit in den künstlerischen Werken.
Es ist daher verständlich daß, insoweit es sich um den Versuch handelt, jene Welt weiterzuleben, die künstlerischen Lösungen ebenfalls in ihr ihre befruchtenden Gedanken suchen und finden können. Daher ist es ohne weiteres denkbar, daß, sagen wir, auf religiösem Gebiet noch immer zurückgegriffen wird auf die Formensprache einer Zeit, in der das Christentum auch als Weltanschauung allen Anforderungen zu genügen schien. Umgekehrt aber wird daher auch der Ausdruck einer neuen rassisch bedingten Weltanschauung augenblicklich in jene Sphären der Vergangenheit stoßen, die eine ähnliche Freiheit des Geistes, des Willens und der Erkenntnis bereits besessen hatten. Es ist daher verständlich, daß die Manifestation eines europäischen Staatsgedankens künstlerisch nicht durch uns nichtssagende, weil fremde— zum Beispiel ostasiatische—Kulturen erfolgen kann, sondern tausendfältig beeindruckt wird von den Zeugen, Zeugnissen und Erinnerungen an jene gewaltige imperiale Macht des Altertums, die, trotzdem sie als reale Erscheinung vor eineinhalbtausend Jahren getötet wurde, als irreale Kraft in der Vorstellung weiterlebt und weiterwirkt.
Ja, je mehr sich der moderne Staat der imperialen Idee der antiken Weltmacht nähert, um so mehr wird deren kultureller Gesamtaus-druck stilbildend auch in der Neuzeit in Erscheinung treten. Das Zeit-alter des Versuches der Aufrichtung einer napoleonischen Weltmacht ist zugleich das Zeitalter des Empires. Allein auch die merkantilen Zwecke bestimmen die Ausrichtung der Baukunst, desgleichen die hygienischen Erkenntnisse und die damit verbundenen Forderungen. Weil das aber so ist, kann nie zugegeben werden, daß Bauwerke, die ein Produkt und Wahrzeichen des nationalsozialistischen Zeitalters sein sollen, einen Auftrag erhalten oder eine Erfüllung finden von und in außerhalb des Wesens, der Haltung und der Zielsetzung unserer Zeit liegenden Erscheinungen, und es ist hier die hohe Aufgabe der öffentlichen Auftraggeber eines Zeitalters, nicht etwa durch die Art der Stellung ihrer Aufträge die Anleitung für eine Fälschung des Geistes ihrer eigenen Zeit zu geben und damit die Grundlagen ihrer eigenen weltanschaulichen Existenz in Frage zu stellen.
Der Nationalsozialismus ist eine kühle Wirklichkeitslehre schärfster wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse und ihrer gedanklichen Ausprägung. Indem wir für diese Lehre das Herz unseres Volkes erschlossen haben und erschließen, wünschen wir nicht, es deshalb mit einem Mystizismus zu erfüllen, der außerhalb des Zweckes und Zieles unserer Lehre liegt. Vor allem ist der Nationalsozialismus in seiner Organisation wohl eine Volksbewegung, aber unter keinen Umständen eine kultische Erscheinung.
Insoweit sich die Aufklärung und Erfassung unseres Volkes bestimmter nunmehr schon traditionell gewordener Methoden bedient, sind diese die Ergebnisse einer Erkenntnis aus Erfahrungen, die im Zweckmäßigen liegen. Es ist daher auch zweckmäßig, sie später als Brauchtum zu erhalten. Sie haben aber nichts zu tun mit aus anderen Gesichtspunkten etwa entliehenen oder entnommenen Methoden oder Ausdrucksformen, die bisher die Bezeichnung „Kult” für sich in Ansprucht genommen haben. Denn der Nationalsozialismus ist eben keine kultische Bewegung, sondern eine aus ausschließlich rassischen Erkenntnissen erwachsene völkisch-politische Lehre. In ihrem Sinn liegt kein mystischer Kult, sondern die Pflege und Führung des blutbestimmten und -bedingten Volkes. Wir haben daher auch keine Kulträume, sondern ausschließlich Volkshallen, auch keine Kultplätze, sondern Versammlungs- und Aufmarschplätze. Wir haben keine Kulthaine, sondern Sportarenen oder Spielwiesen. Und das Charakteristikum unserer Versammlungsräume ist nicht das mystische Dunkel einer Kultstätte, sondern die Helligkeit und das Licht eines ebenso schönen wie zweckmäßigen Saal- und Hallenbaues. Es finden daher in ihnen auch keine kultischen Handlungen statt, sondern ausschließlich Volkskundgebungen in der Art, in der wir im Laufe langer Kämpfe dies erlernten und damit es gewohnt sind und es uns so bewahren wollen.
Das Einschleichen mystisch veranlagter, okkulter Jenseitsforscher darf daher in der Bewegung nicht geduldet werden. Sie sind nicht Nationalsozialisten, sondern irgend etwas anderes, auf jeden Fall aber etwas, was mit uns nichts zu tun hat. An der Spitze unseres Programms steht nicht das geheimnisvolle Ahnen, sondern das klare Erkennen und damit das offene Bekenntnis. Indem wir aber in den Mittelpunkt dieser Erkenntnis und dieses Bekenntnisses die Erhaltung und damit Fortsicherung eines von Gott geschaffenen Wesens stellen, dienen wir damit der Erhaltung eines göttlichen Werkes und damit der Erfüllung einer göttlichen Plicht, und zwar nicht im geheimnisvollen Dämmerschein einer neuen Kultstätte, sondern vor dem offenen Antlitz des Herrn.
Es gab Zeitalter, in denen das Halbdunkel die Voraussetzung für die Wirksamkeit bestimmter Lehren war, und es gibt heute ein Zeit-alter, in dem das Licht die Grundbedingung für unser erfolgreiches Handeln ist. Wehe, wenn aber durch das Einschleichen unklarer mystischer Elemente die Bewegung oder der Staat selber unklare Aufträge erteilen. Und es genügt schon, wenn diese Unklarheit im Worte liegt. Es ist schon eine Gefahr, irgendeinen Auftrag für eine sogenannte Kultstätte zu stellen, weil sich schon daraus die Notwendigkeit für das spätere Ersinnen sogenannter kultischer Spiele und kultischer Handlungen ergibt, die mit Nationalsozialismus nichts zu tun haben.
Unser Kult heißt ausschließlich Pflege des Natürlichen und damit auch des göttlich Gewollten.
Unsere Demut ist die bedingungslose Verbeugung vor den uns Menschen bekannt werdenden göttlichen Gesetzen des Daseins und ihre Respektierung. Unser Gebet heißt: Tapfere Erfüllung der sich daraus ergebenden Pflichten. Für kultische Handlungen aber sind nicht wir zuständig, sondern die Kirchen! Wenn jedoch jemand glauben sollte, daß ihm diese unsere Aufgaben nicht genügen oder sehr schlecht entsprechen könnten, dann muß er unter Beweis stellen, daß sich seiner Gott bedienen will, um es besser zu machen. Keinesfalls können der Nationalsozialismus und der nationalsozialistische Staat der deutschen Kunst andere Aufgaben stellen, als sie in unserer Weltanschauung begründet liegen.
Sie dürfen aber auch keine Aufgaben stellen, die der Kunst an sich zu erfüllen unmöglich sind. Und die Künstler selbst dürfen nicht versuchen, Aufgaben zu lösen, die außerhalb des Vermögens der künstlerischen Gestaltungskraft liegen.
Ich erwähne dies als unendlich wichtig, weil ein einmal eingeschlagener Irrweg unter Umständen ein ganzes Jahrhundert künstlerisch unfruchtbar machen kann. Und es ist dabei gleich gefährlich, ob nun der öffentliche Auftraggeber in seinen Aufträgen an sich schon versagt hat oder ob die Künstler, von einer falschen Auffassung beherrscht, an der einzig möglichen richtigen Lösung vorbeigehen. Aus einer falschen Zielsetzung, die von einem öffentlichen Auftraggeber in einer Zeit aufgegeben wird, kann nur zu leicht ein falscher Ehrgeiz erwachsen, Probleme zu gestalten, die nicht gestaltbar sind. Es ist beispielsweise auch für den Künstler, der wirklich in unserer heutigen Zeit lebt – und nur der allein wird fähig sein, Großes zu schaffen – an sich schon unmöglich, einer weltanschaulich falschen Auftragserteilung eine künstlerisch befriedigende Lösung zu geben. Weil der Auftrag, einen Kultraum zu gestalten, außerhalb des Wesens und der Zielsetzung unserer heutigen Zeit liegt, ist es auch dem Künstler gar nicht möglich, hier irgend eine befriedigende Gestaltung zu finden.
Was im Mittelalter, da die christliche Welt in all ihren Lebensäußerungen die gegebene war, zu zwingenden baulichen Erfüllungen führte, muß heute, da der Nationalsozialismus unser Lebensschick-sal zu bestimmen beginnt, glatt versagen. Es ist daher von vornherein unmöglich, der deutschen Baukunst einen Auftrag zu erteilen, der gerade vom nationalsozialistischen Künstler nicht ausgeführt werden kann, weil er außerhalb der ihn befruchtenden nationalsozialistischen Erkenntnis und Haltung liegt.
Die Diskrepanz zwischen einer solchen Auftragserteilung und dem Effekt eines sogenannten nationalsozialistischen Kultraums ist entsetzlich, sie ist aber bedingt nicht nur durch das Versagen des Künstlers, sondern natürlich ebenso durch das Versagen des Auftraggebers, der vergessen hat, daß der Baumeister nicht für einen Zweck zu bauen vermag, der an sich verfehlend ist, weil er außer der Zeit liegt und im übrigen auch gar keinen praktischen Sinn be-sitzt. Denn was soll nun dieser Kultraum, welchem Zweck dient er, was tut sich in ihm? Außer öder Langeweile gar nichts!
Es kann daher die Baukunst in wahrhaft großen Lösungen nur dann in Erscheinung treten, wenn ihr wahrhaft große, in der Zeit liegende Aufgaben gestellt werden. Ein Abirren von diesem Grundsatz wird sie unfruchtbar machen, ihre Lösungen werden dann gekünstelt, verlogen, falsch und damit unbedeutend und für die Gegenwart und Zukunft wertlos sein.
Ebensowenig kann man der Musik Aufgaben stellen, die zu erfüllen außer ihrem Vermögen liegen. Die Musik als absolute Kunst gehorcht uns heute noch unbekannten Gesetzen. Welche Gründe der Wohlklang für sich anzuführen hat und welche für den Mißlaut verantwortlich sind, wissen wir zur Zeit noch nicht genau. Sicher aber ist, daß die Musik als größte Gestalterin von Gefühlen und Empfindungen anzusprechen ist, die das Gemüt bewegen, und daß sie am wenigsten geeignet erscheint, den Verstand zu befriedigen. Daher kann es nur zu leicht sein, daß Verstand und musikalisches Gehör nicht im gleichen Körper anzutreffen sind. Der Verstand bedient sich zu seinen Äußerungen der Sprache.
Eine sprachlich schwer zu schildernde Welt von Gefühlen und Stimmungen offenbart sich durch die Musik. Sie kann daher bestehen ohne jede sprachliche Deutung, und sie kann natürlich umgekehrt mithelfen, den Eindruck einer bestimmten sprachlichen Fixierung gefühlsmäßig durch ihre Begleitung zu vertiefen. Je mehr die Musik zur reinen Illustrierung führt, um so wichtiger ist, daß ihr die zu unter-streichende Handlung sichtbar beigegeben ist. Das Ingenium des großen Künstlers wird dann immer noch über die reine Handlung hinaus eine zusätzliche, nur durch die Musik erreichbare Gesamtstimmung und damit Wirkung geben. Ihren einmaligen Höhepunkt hat diese Kunst der Erzeugung eines musikalischen Grund- und damit Gesamtcharakters als Stimmung in den Werken des großen Bayreuther Meisters gefunden.
'
Allein auch außerdem ist es einer Anzahl gottbegnadeter Musiker geglückt, bestimmten dramatischen Kunstwerken einen schlagen-den musikalischen Grundwert und damit Gesamtausdruck zu sichern. Die großen Symphoniker bemühen sich, allgemeinere Stimmungen wiederzugeben, benötigen aber dabei als Einführung für den Hörer schon öfter bestimmter allgemeiner, sprachlich niedergelegter Anhaltspunkte. Es ist aber gänzlich unmöglich, eine Weltanschauung als Wissenschaft musikalisch zum Ausdruck bringen zu wollen. Man kann unter Zuhilfenahme vorhandener musikalisch, das heißt besser inhaltlich festgelegter Arbeiten von früher bestimmte Zeitgemälde entwickeln, es ist aber unmöglich, bestimmte wissenschaftliche, politische Erkenntnisse oder politische Vorgänge musikalisch deuten oder gar vertiefen zu wollen.
Es gibt daher weder eine musikalische Parteigeschichte noch eine musikalische Weltanschauung, ebenso gibt es auch keine musikalische Illustrierung oder Deutung philosophischer Erkenntnisse. Dafür ist ausschließlich die Sprache da.
Und es ist die Aufgabe unserer Dichter oder Denker nun, die Sprache so beherrschen zu lernen, daß sie nicht nur die ihnen vorschwebenden Erkenntnisse klar und wie gestochen wiedergibt und sie damit den Mitmenschen vermittelt, sondern daß diese selbst darüber hinaus noch durch die Beherrschung der Klangform, die in der Sprache liegt, zum Kunstwerk erhoben wird.
Wir Deutsche können glücklich sein, eine ebenso schöne wie reiche, aber allerdings auch schwere Sprache zu besitzen. Sie beherrschen zu lernen ist eine wunderbare Aufgabe, und sich ihrer zu bedienen, ebenfalls eine Kunst. In ihr die Gedanken unserer Weltanschauung zum Ausdruck zu bringen, muß möglich sein und ist möglich. Diese musikalisch darzustellen, ist weder möglich noch notwendig. Es ist daher ein Unsinn, wenn jemand glaubt, in der musikalischen Einleitung – sagen wir – einer Kongreßveranstaltung eine Deutung der Parteigeschichte geben zu müssen oder überhaupt auch nur geben zu können. In diesem Fall müßte auf alle Fälle der begleitende Text die Gedankengänge des Komponisten der Mitwelt aufhellen und verständlich machen.
Dies ist aber — wie schon betont — überhaupt gar nicht notwendig, wohl aber ist es nötig, die allgemeinen Gesetze für die Entwicklung und Führung unseres nationalen Lebens auch auf dem Gebiet der Musik zur Anwendung zu bringen, das heißt, nicht in technisch gekonntem Wirrwarr von Tönen das Staunen der verblüfften Zuhörer zu erregen, sondern in der erahnten und erfühlten Schönheit der
Klänge ihre Herzen zu bezwingen. Nicht der intellektuelle Verstand hat bei unseren Musikern Pate zu stehen, sondern ein überquellen-des musikalisches Gemüt.
Wenn irgendwo, dann muß hier der Grundsatz gelten, „wes das Herz voll ist, des läuft der Mund über”. Das heißt: wer von der Größe, der Schönheit oder dem Schmerz, dem Leid einer Zeit und seines Volkes durchdrungen oder überwältigt wird, kann, wenn er von Gott begnadet ist, auch in Tönen sein Inneres erschließen. Das technische Können ist wie immer die äußere notwendige Voraussetzung für die Offenbarung der inneren Veranlagung.
Ich halte es für dringend notwendig, daß gerade unsere Musiker sich diese Erkenntnis zu Herzen nehmen. Das vergangene Jahrhundert hat zahlreiche musikalische Genies in unserem Volk erstehen lassen. Die Gründe für das allmähliche Versiegen derselben habe ich schon in früheren Reden klarzulegen versucht. Es würde nun aber schlimm sein, wenn der Nationalsozialismus auf der einen Seite den Geist einer Zeit besiegt, der zur Ursache für das Verblas-sen unserer musikalischen Schöpferkraft wurde, auf der anderen aber durch eine falsche Zielsetzung selbst mithilft, die Musik auf einem Irrweg zu belassen oder gar zu führen, der genau so schlimm ist wie die hinter uns liegende allgemeine Verwirrung.
Ob es sich aber um die Baukunst handelt oder um die Musik, um Bildhauerei oder Malerei, eines soll man grundsätzlich nie außer acht lassen:
Jede wahre Kunst muß ihren Werken den Stempel des Schönen aufprägen, denn das Ideal für uns alle hat in der Pflege des Gesunden zu liegen. Alles Gesunde aber allein ist richtig und natürlich. Alles Richtige und Natürliche ist damit schön.
Es ist heute aber ebenso wichtig, den Mut zur Schönheit zu finden wie den zur Wahrheit. Der Weltfeind, gegen den wir im Kampfe stehen, hat auf seine Fahne ebenso die Vernichtung des Wahrhaftigen als des Schönen geschrieben. Er hat es fertiggebracht, die Bejahung der natürlichsten Gefühle teils als dumm, teils als lächerlich, teils sogar als feige hinzustellen. Alle großen Empfindungen und Charaktertugenden wurden von ihm verhöhnt, verlacht oder beschmutzt. Es gelang ihm, daß vielen der Mut verloren ging, sich noch zu ihrem Volkstum offen zu bekennen oder gar dafür einzutreten. Endlich galt es nicht nur als unklug, für das eigene Volk zu kämpfen, sondern sogar als Feigheit, während der wirkliche Feigling, der seine Gemeinschaft im Stiche ließ, als tapferer Künder eines neuen Ideals gepriesen werden konnte.
Und zahlreiche Angehörige gerade der sogenannten vornehmen Gesellschaftskreise sind wohl auch infolge der Leere ihres eigenen Gemüts dieser Psychose zum Opfer gefallen. Sie unterwarfen sich teils feige, teils aber auch nur zu willig diesem jüdischen Terror. Und es gehörte in den ersten Jahrzehnten unseres nationalsozialistischen Kampfes eine große Entschlußkraft, ein tapferes Herz und ein andauernder Mut dazu, überhaupt wieder den Glauben an die ewigen volklichen Ideale zu vertreten, für diese zu werben und für sie zum offenen Einsatz aufzurufen. Es ist aber ebenso unsere Aufgabe, den Mut zur wahren Schönheit zu finden und uns nicht beirren zu lassen durch das teils alberne, teils unverschämte Geschwätz dekadenter Literaten, die es versuchen, das Natürliche und damit Schöne als Kitsch zu verrufen, das Kranke und Ungesunde aber als das Interessante, Bemerkenswerte und daher Beachtungswürdige hinzustellen.
Sowie erst die Menschheit diesen Weg zu beschreiten beginnt und sich vom Ewig-Schönen entfernt, wird sie in kurzer Zeit jeden Maß-stab für die Wertung menschlicher Kulturleistungen verlieren. Das Kunstschaffen wird dann einem Tollhaus gleichen, in dem Irrsinnige stammeln oder kritzeln, und eine Epoche der Erde, die charakterisiert ist durch das wundersame Emporblühen der Menschheit, muß dann im Wahnsinn und im Verfall ihr Ende finden.
Daher ist es eine große und erhebende Aufgabe, durch eine wirkliche Pflege der Musik, des Theaters, der Bildhauerei und Malerei,: besonders aber der Baukunst diesem Kulturverfall Einhalt zu gebieten. Wir müssen es dabei zu erreichen versuchen, daß sich nicht nur die Künstler bilden, sondern daß durch sie auch das Volk weiter gebildet wird, daß die Augen immer klarer sehen lernen und daß sich das Gefühl für schöne und edle Proportionen entwickelt und vertieft, daß das Gehör sich verfeinert, und daß damit das Verständnis wächst nicht nur für die künstlerischen Schöpfungen im großen gesehen, sondern auch für die einzelnen feinen Details.
So werden wir uns langsam zur wahren künstlerischen Gewissenhaftigkeit erziehen. Sie verhindert am ehesten das Abgleiten in eine verderbliche, blasierte Übersättigung. Sie weitet das Auge und sie schärft es und bildet das Gehör für die Wunder der künstlerischen Arbeit in der unbegrenzten Welt des Kleinen. Sie wird mithelfen, einst ein ganzes Volk dann teilnehmen zu lassen an der Entstehung und der Gestaltung der gewaltigen nationalen Kunstwerke, nicht nur im großen gesehen, sondern auch in den einzelnen Feinheiten. Und erst dann wird man wieder von einer wirklichen neuen Kunstepoche reden dürfen. Dann wird die Nachwelt einst vom Wunder einer Zeit berichten können, in der inmitten einer der gewaltigsten politischen Erneuerungen einer Geschichte, unbeirrt durch allen Kampf und alle Wirrnis der Welt, in den deutschen Landen die Kultur in reichster Entfaltung zu blühen begann.
Unser Volk aber wird in stolzer Ehrfurcht dann die Werke hüten, die wir heute einfügen in den ewigen Schatz der deutschen Kunst.

And this on top of his chilling oppurtunism,
or is it genuine zeal, for the most unspeakable

You're right. We need to look at what Gingrich has actually done, not what he says...haven't we learned anything about glib speech givers?
Gingrich is a member of the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations), and that group is about as un-conservative as it gets.
Gingrich's past is very checkered, and his remark about Paul Ryan was over the top.
Too bad the true statesmen in this Country, like Paul Ryan and Jim DeMint, want nothing to do with the presidency. But who can blame them?

Great advice Nancy, it's what they do not what they say that is the key to unlocking the mystery as to why we keep going down as a nation tied to socialism regardless of the party in power.
Newt is a double talking politician that infatuates the glitter chasers but is seen as the lizard that he truly is by those who know a lot of history.
Jesus said that you will know them by their fruits and Newt's fruits have been detrimental to America.
GATT and NAFTA,his support of the Department of Eduation, foreign aid to China, providing the socialist regime "Most Favored Nation" trading status, etc..
Gingrich's list for carrying water for Washington insiders is well documented inthis article: http://www.thenewamerican.com/.....nservative

More copy cat from Mr. Newt. The paid flack for Fannie Mae is now is now against the Central Bank. Newt is all using Article 3 section 2 for restraining the courts in regard to Habeous Corpus and other vital civil rights. Ron Paul has advocated and has introduced legislation, using those sections of the Constitution to get rid of the abomination of Roe vs Wade by restricting the juridiction of the Federal Courts in the matter of Abortion. This was also the policy advocated by the late great Jesse Helms. Newt is just a policy wonk who steals whatever ideas he thinks are popular. He is a man without principles.

Newt is for giving these powers to the President, or another couple of terms, Surpreme leader or Fuhurer. Who wants to trust someone like Newt or Obama with such powers?
Newt is Mr. Blackmailed and rolled and rolled and rolled again by Clinton over his serial adultries.
Newt is Mr kicked out of his Speakership because he is a terrible windbag and he was ineffective.
Newt is Mr. consultant for Fannie Mae who got over 300,000 big ones in 2006 to tell them that they are doing a fine job.

Jack, If Newt is the nominee he's got my full support. If Ron Paul is the nominee, he's got my full support. No need to tear our own down, the MSM can do that. The world is a dangerous place now, thanks to Obama. Help me understand how Mr. Paul would help to make it a safer place. His foreign policy articulations have been scary so far.

When we take back this country and elect Ron Paul President and Rand Paul Vice President there will be a reckoning with all of the pro-Zionist, Israel-first crowd. It's coming, and it's long overdue. So go ahead and laugh now, your time is almost up. I am in constant contact with very important people. There is a meeting scheduled for March 15th at Lake Wannasee in Minnesota specifically to deal with this question.
Jack in Wi| 11.16.11 @ 7:43AM
I have never mentioned Ron Paul in any post today, except the other one above, where I compared him to Newt and called the name stealer out. I end my Day with the blessed phrase. Praise be Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. God bless his vicar on earth the Pope.

Jack,
Give'em Hell, my Son (Tee-Hee! I LOVE saying that!). And you're right! Those pesky Jews have had a free ride since Vatican II. And what's with all those "apologies"??? As if! What's the point of being Infallible if you have to change your mind every 10-15 years??? I mean, c'mon!!
So keep giving' it to those Zionists and their flunkees at the Banks! Those pricks won't stop bugging me about overdue payments!! I told them: "Look, Shlomo...you can't put a time-table on the Lord's work, know what I'm sayin?" but that damn shylock, he's just not reasonable!
So keep it up, Jack! There's more than one way to earn a spot inside those Pearly Gates, my boy!
Clint| 11.16.11 @ 8:27AM
We Notice That American Spectator's Resident Anti-Catholic Bigots Are Scared Of The Tea Party & Our Presidential Candidate Dr,Ron Paul.
DR. RON PAUL'S “PLAN TO RESTORE AMERICA”
TAXES:
Lowers the corporate tax rate to 15%, making America competitive in the global market. Allows American companies to repatriate capital without additional taxation, spurring trillions in new investment. Extends all Bush tax cuts. Abolishes the Death Tax. Ends taxes on personal savings, allowing families to build a nest egg. "

Clint, what in the name of the Blessed Virgin is wrong with you?!?!
There's only 1 Catholic in this horse race, and it ain't Ron Paul!! You need to get your ass off of the couch, out the door, and start campaigning for Rick Santorum!!
I thought that would be painfully obvious, but then I remembered that you were the Altar Boy who put vanilla wafers in the communion tray, so I guess I need to remind you again.
Now get with the program, Clint! Your first, last, and only duty is to Rome, NOT some silly Constitution written by Protestant Heretics!!
Don't make me repeat myself, Clint! I have my ruler with me.

Clinty-poo doesn't even follow his own Religion.
He's a coward who won't even repost the very words of his own Popey, that he posted here a couple years ago, proving the Pope's an anti-semite.
Right Clinty-poo?
What's that quote say? That Supersessionism is indeed what he believes~ that makes ISRAEL NULL & VOID?
Oh yeah, Clint knows His Religion well. He's a product of the TRUE teachings of the cult of Catholicism.
The CULT that put to death MILLIONS of Christians for at least six centuries?
And WHY did they TORTURE and KILL them?
Because they were just like me. They REFUSED to bow their knee to the Papists, REFUSED the FALSE and abominable teachings of Catholicism.
THAt is why they tortured and killed them.
Because they believed the WORDS of GOD as written in the Bible!
And they still teach the same false teachings.
It is why I am labeled a Bigot~ JUST AS THEY were.
Repent and believe the TRUE GOSPEL OF GOD.
NO genuine Christian will BE a Catholic, CANNOT be one when they become born of God.
As in JOHN 3:3.
John 3:3 does NOT MEAN BAPTISM as this cult teaches you~ it means being born of God's Spirit.
Read it for yourselves and come to know the real Jesus of the Bible.

Ron Paul's program and stated ideals represent the finest example of the Catholic doctrines of Subsidiarity, Just War Theory, Proportionality in response to war and attack, and Prolife Policy. That we have ever seen in a Presidential candidate. Dr. Paul is a fine Protestant Christian who understands these ancient Christian doctrines, that have been, and still are so vital to the survival of civilization. Praise be Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. God bless His vicar on Earth the Pope.

Probably because long ago, a Jewish guy at work got a promotion that Jack thought he (jack) deserved...or took a girl to the prom that Jack liked...or beat him at dodge-ball in 2nd grade.

Clint, you pathetic coward...
How many times are you going to challenge people to a fight, and then not show-up.
You KNOW you have no intention of EVER meeting anyone for a fight. That's because you're a pansy. You like to sit behind a keyboard and act tough because it helps you psychologically to feel important.
Your WORST nightmare would be for someone to figure out who you are, where you live, and come to your "abode" and find out that you're either some fat, over-weight Star Trek geek, a 14-year old kid, or an out-of-work slob on furlough from the local jail for taking off your pants at the Qwik-E-Mart.
Either way, you're a complete joke.
So put up, or shut up.

Jack, as a child, was a member of the Hitler youth, who wanted more than anything else, to follow in his father footsteps gassing Jews in the Death Camps. Unfortunately, Britain, rallied by Churchill(which explains his hatred of the man), and America, with some help from the Godless Soviet Union, put an end to his dreams.
Years later, his Hitler Youth hidden in his past, he is still unable to put his hatred of the JOOOOOOOOOS behind him.
Really rather sad.

"In keeping with this train of thoughts, it is not unusual for individuals who exhibit characteristics of latent homosexuality often find themselves drawn to ultra-masculine professions, such as policeman and fireman; to name a few. Many professional sports also serve as a magnet for latent homosexuals, especially the more violent and aggressive sports. In two sports, boxing and wresting, latent homosexuality is quite evident. And where many of the features involved in the act of intercourse between two lovers are present in the ring. For example, in both boxing and wrestling the participant hug, embrace, stroke the opponent's sweaty and scantly-covered body like any couple engaged in sexual activities. Many psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapists postulate the theory that both the boxer and the wrestler experience profound rage and guilt for their exhibitionist conduct, and for giving in to their homosexual desires. Therefore, each participant is highly-motivated to punish each other, sometime ending in death, for gratifying the unconscious homosexual desire to embrace and make love to another man."

I am profoundly perplexed! It appears that some scoundrel has been using my nom de' plume while I was away!
Oh, dear! I suppose one should expect this type of shenanigans to occur when one goes away on academic sabbatical to study the migratory habits of the West African Swallow. The next time I take 6 months off of my busy teaching schedule to pursue a bit of research, I'll make sure that some of my computer-savy grad assistants lock-out my accounts.
What's worse is that this fool who's using my name is not a Democrat. The mere idea that I would ever vote for a Republican, let alone a silly Libertarian could get my tenure revoked! I must speak to the Dean immediately. He'll invariably doubt my story; he's one of those people, isn't he? But I'm sure I can smooth it over in time.
Please, I know we have our political differences, but if anyone out there could stop this neanderthal from using my name, I'd be most appreciative. It's bad enough that he's making me look like a conservative tea-party type, but it's even worse that he appears to be as dumb as a doornail.

Nancy: Newt almost destroyed the party when he was Speaker. That is why he was thrown out on his ear. He will never be the nominee of this party. He is too hated and too phoney.
Sam Vaughn| 11.16.11 @ 8:00AM
I disagree Jack. Newt is the one in the debates that stands out. Admittedly, Ron doesn't get his proper share of airtime.
Jack in Wi| 11.16.11 @ 8:20AM
Ron wins every online post debate poll, huge majorites. a lot of these polls are unique. That includes the last one where he got 89 seconds. Newt is not liked and never will be liked by the American people. He has disgaced himself too much his whole career. He has no organization and little money. All he has the puffing of the controlled talk radio and consevative press. He can never stand up to media scrutiny. I end with this blessed phrase. Praise be Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. God bless his vicar on earth the Pope. This is about my 3rd or 4th last post. I got to get out of here and go do some work. Shalom.

This is legally incoherent:government is not by the law;get rid of judges we don't like; what's stops the left also taking advantage of this. Newt is intellectually incoherent and a grubby man to boot. A charlatan. Lets just bomb, bomb Iran. As I said the man is a lightweight.
Mike Rogers | 11.16.11 @ 7:33AM
History and the constitution are on Newt's side.
In answer to your point, the left are already taking advantage of the courts to subvert our constitution.
The oath of office requires all federal officials to uphold and defend the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. If the courts are such enemies, then close them and replace them.
(Obama, remove thyself!)
Purpleguy| 11.16.11 @ 1:30PM
Actually, not all Federal officials, and only elected ones at that, and only the President's oath of office inserts "to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic". It would seem if you want to dismantle the judiciary, you are not upholding the Constitution, but then that's the Newtster.

Newt Gingrich made between $1.6 million and $1.8 million in consulting fees from two contracts with mortgage company Freddie Mac, according to two people familiar with the arrangement.
The total amount is significantly larger than the $300,000 payment from Freddie Mac that Gingrich was asked about during a Republican presidential debate on Nov. 9 sponsored by CNBC, and more than was disclosed in the middle of congressional investigations into the housing industry collapse.
Pecos Pete| 11.16.11 @ 7:31AM
The crazies are out early today.
Newt simply says that the people, voters, are the final authority. And from this the crazies go off into Paul-bot land.
And, in November 2012 the people, voters, will repudiate democrat party legislation and regulations.
Mike Rogers | 11.16.11 @ 7:44AM
Indeed so - Newt simply says - "I interpret the Constitution thusly - vote me out if you disagree".

Agreed. One of Paul's biggest problems is his rabid supporters. Jack, Clint, and many of his supporters are hurting his cause by spewing their awful anti-Semitic remarks.
It sure is easy to get them to display their ignorance though, just insult DOCTOR Ron Paul, and here they come, proudly displaying their asses!
Ron Paul is a kook, and never, ever will be the nominee.

Checks and balance must also be examined on the Presidency and particular this one. In fact each branch of governments needs so much checks and balance so as to stop from functioning badly. This government and I include Obama the Republican and Socialist leadershit need at least as much check mating as the courts. Its called we do not trust our government. Its than plain.
As for Gingrich as candidate let me take this opportunity to say he would be better than Romney I think maybe.
But except for Ron Paul and John Huntsman I would encourage all the rest to stay in,stick it to each other and Obama especially Obama and force out all the phonies so that in the end voters know who to chose. I would say ignore including in this blog a) All of the hit pieces on candidates other than Romney because many posters want Romney and ignore all poll results. From all sources, they are all lies.
There is a lot of time needed to truly know our candidates and so far Romney and Gingrich have not been exposed enough.

If you read this, and if you listen to Newt, he makes more sense than the rest put together.
Yes, I get the man's baggage, and his bomb-throwing tendencies, but nobody understands our history, the causes of our greatness, and our dumbest mistakes, better than Newt.
I have read his 2008 book, and the thing which jumped out was his list of things which the federal government SHALL do - a tendency to enforce virtue from the center which must be borne in mind, and kept in check.
Nonetheless, there is a reason why this man is surging in the polls, and we ignore him at our peril. Indeed, we ignore his ideas at the peril of the entire American experiment.
What we need is a great communicator, a businessman, a sunny optimist, to join with Newt to make a balanced ticket.
Gentlemen, may I suggest Cain-Gingrich?

Unless and until you do so, you will continue to be in SHEER rebellion towrds God, and will continue hating Christians who speak from the Scriptures.

Margie| 11.16.11 @ 1:42PM
Clint:
Pope worshippers are anti-Christ.
They're idolators.
And that's a FACT.
The Pope is not Christ on Earth, nor is he His representative.
Nor is there anything "Holy" about him. There can't be, because it isn't the will of God to do what he's doing.
Jesus needs no mediator on earth, according to the Bible (The actual Words of God).
Trying to claim you are that is an abomination.
"For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony to which was borne at the proper time." 1 Tim. 2:5 & 6.
If you did repent and believe the true Gospel of Jesus Christ, you'd be able to see that for example, Jesus does not come under the teeth of anyone who takes the Lord's Supper. I'm talking about the false teaching of "Transubstantiation".
Jesus is not physically present and you do not eat Him. How anyone could be deceived into thinking that is very sad.
No, Jesus is not physically present in between your teeth when you eat the bread, why?
Because the BIBLE says He is in Heaven, and sits at the Right Hand of God.
"If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God." Col. 3:1.
If you worshipped Jesus, and listened to His Words, you wouldn't be the way you are, and you wouldn't hate the Jews. What you've been taught is all wrong.
Jesus and God, the Father never made Israel null & void.
Have you read Romans 11?

Newt's argument cuts both ways. Would you find acceptable ObamaCare containing language denying jurisdiction to the courts of government mandated insurance purchase? Or that ObamaCare defines a right to health care and no court shall have jurisdiction to say otherwise? Or the right to be free of purchasing insurance only applies to those states or individuals who sue for them? Or if Obama said "that's your opinion" to the Supreme Court if they rule it unconstitutional?
Newt's argument is fantasy football -- he thinks that only one side gets the ball.

If you just IGNORE the Jackass in Wi, he will go away.
As far as Gingrich goes, his Academic Hypothesis makes for good reading. Perhaps we will see it on a Fortune Cookie, after the Chinese have taken over.
To get what he suggests, you need Both Houses of the Congress. (Preferably, with Super Majorities) And you need Men and Women of Strong Moral Fiber, with a set of Principles grounded in Faith, and in the Philosophies of our Founding Fathers. I see no such people at present time. All I see are people of Blind Ambition. People who do what's good for THEMSELVES, before even considering the ones they supposedly "Work For". People who write laws "For THEE, but not For ME", as the latest Congressional Atrocity makes the rounds, of them, once again, EXEMPTING THEMSELVES, and their Royal Asses, from the very LAWS that they hold over OUR HEADS.
It must be nice to manipulate legislation to increase the Value of your Investments. It must feel Special, being the only people ALLOWED to Act on INSIDE INFORMATION on Stocks and Bonds. Is it, Nancy Pelosi? Is it, Harry Reid? Is it, John Kerry. (His wife is a BILLIONAIRE, and this MFing POS, is doing this.)
No, Mr. Gingrich, what you seek, will never come to pass. Our Leaders have betrayed us. Power Corrupts. Ultimate Power Corrupts, Ultimately. And, the Single Minded Quest for ever MORE MONEY, is the Root of all Evil. Too many of our Leaders possess both of these attributes.
We will go the way of every Republic that came before us. John Adams proclaimed that "This form of Government can only succeed, as long as its' people believe in an Almighty God, and a Code of Ethics. (I'm paraphrasing) Jefferson proclaimed that: "As soon as the people realize that they can Vote themselves Money. It's over." And, Churchill said that; "Democracy is the Worst form of Government. Except for all the others."
We have become a Nation of MEN, and NOT of Laws. When our Representatives start writing themselves out of the Laws. When they willfully, and MALICIOUSLY, make Laws applicable, only to We The People. Then it's pretty much Over With, already. Don'tcha think? These Judges are just one more example of our Decline.
Rome wasn't built in a day. Rome didn't FALL in a Day. But, it DID Fall.

Timothy L. Pennell| 11.16.11 @ 9:27AM
I don't know what you're reading, but I never said anything about "Cutting and Running".
Tell me, Sam, what IS the American Way, these days? I'm 54 Years Old. This is not the Country I was born in to. GOD, COUNTRY, HONOUR. Where do you see that, outside of the Military?
Our Schools teach our children to HATE this Country. They teach them that our Founders were EVIL, and should be IGNORED. The Boy Scouts are to be reviled, the CHURCH is Racist and Homophobic, and that GOD is for suckers.
There is no longer any RESPECT for Women, our Elders, our Institutions and Traditions, our History or our Heroes. Hell. Most people don't even have Respect for themselves.
Our Government Of, By, and For THE PEOPLE, has become an Open Sewer, and a Den Of Thieves, full of Men and Women interested only in their acquisition of MONEY and POWER. And we are led by a Man with a Single Minded Goal, of bringing, what he believes is, this EVIL/RACIST/IMPERIALISTIC Abomination of a Country, to its' knees.
Just because I point out THE TRUTH? Doesn't mean I'm Cutting and Running. Obviously, you're either too Stupid, or Ignorant, or you just don't care, to recognize the INEVITABLE, when it's standing right in front of you.
That's not me.

You are right: TAS purports to have a policy:

As you suggest, we should not feed the trolls. However, I have yet to notice TAS applying its policy. Mebbe it's time for TAS to enforce a little civility in here!
And TAS if you do actually start enforcement, make sure that you leave notice of your actions-it will multiply their impact actions tenfold.

DTOM| 11.16.11 @ 6:28PM
Margie;
Maybe there is something wrong with your computer. Maybe you never actually read what you post. But so little of the so much that you post is even slightly germane to the topic. Most of your posting is name calling, simple ad hominem attacks devoid of thought or reason.
You do not contribute thoughts here - just angry invective. Calling somebody a punk, a papist, or whatever else you call them does nothing to illuminate the serious problems our country is facing.
I sometimes wonder if your true intent is to distract others from the actual important topics at hand. That is what the left does so well and so often, primarily because the facts are at odds with their ideas.

As conservatives, I believe that no one person, be it Romney, Cain, Gingrich, etc. can solve all the problems we face in a country. We really need to come to grips with that reality.
At my local tea party group last night, a member started touting the virtues of Ron Paul, and his opinion that Ron Paul can "save" this country.
No ONE person can save this country. Ron Paul can't on his own end the Fed. And does no one fear a country where ONE person can solve the problem (or create a bigger one)?
The Republic can only be saved by the citizens, and I believe the secret is in the House of Representatives. Until we can get a majority of Constitutional conservatives in control of the House, we are doomed. Just my opinion.

Mr. Ferrara, a question. Re. Lincoln and the Emancipation Proclamation, didn't that apply only to slaves held in states that were in rebellion, not all slaves in the US? Would that give Lincoln the right to take "property" without compensation, even though he never acknowledged the Confederacy as a separate nation?
Vern Crisler| 11.16.11 @ 12:16PM
Right. I think Ferrara's understanding of Lincoln's relation to the Supreme Court is as flawed as his understanding of the Emancipation Proclamation. Lincoln was above all a Constitutionalist, and pursued a very cautious and narrow path with the goal of saving that Constitution and the government that was formed under it.
Vern Crisler| 11.16.11 @ 12:34PM
"We believe, as much as Judge Douglas, (perhaps more) in obedience to, and respect for the judicial department of government. We think its decisions on Constitutional questions, when fully settled, should control, not only the particular cases decided, but the general policy of the country, subject to be disturbed only by amendments of the Constitution as provided in that instrument itself. More than this would be revolution. But we think the Dred Scott decision is erroneous. We know the court that made it, has often over-ruled its own decisions, and we shall do what we can to have it to over-rule this. We offer no resistance to it." Abraham Lincoln, 1857 speech on the Dred Scott Decision.

I do not doubt you Margie, I just find him more likeable than his father, not more electable. I live on the IL/KY border and saw ALL the dirt dished about Adam Kokesh and the "Aqua Buddha". I think the only reason he was elected is because his opponent, Jack Conway, overplayed his hand and came across as deceitful and petty.

Benjamin Franklin warned against the evils of money and if it was able to influence government. And, so, here we are, oblivious to the power of money to control our elections, our elected officials, our government and us. It was not always so, and the Founders would have a fit that a Corporation is a person and now has free speech. A completely made up legal entity for the purpose of conducting business, not political activism. We are doomed but Ben Franklin warned us, to our shame we don't listen.

And also. importantly, why do you worship him, then? His "office" does not EXIST in the Bible, that makes him a FRAUD.

Oh, happy day if Newt were to just flat out abolish abusive judicial activists. All one needs to do is to check out DC & Chicago's total disregard for the Heller case. It was JUDGES in those places who found the loopholes for those administrations to use to continue to defy the ruling. And, as mentioned in the article, the total abolition of the 9th Circus Court of Ape-Peals would just warm the cockles of my heart.
"It will be of little avail to the people, that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man, who knows what the law is to-day, can guess what it will be to-morrow. Law is defined to be a rule of action; but how can that be a rule, which is little known, and less fixed?"...Federalist Number 62
Rise up, fellow optimates. The Caesarians are hard at work.
John| 11.16.11 @ 9:23AM
Newt took a bold step, vowing to overhaul the judicial system and restructure it on the basis of Constitution and common scene, rather than prompting liberal agenda. Gov Rick Perry also has some great ideas on overhauling the Judicial system. It all starts with the Executive Branch, electing a conservative President, who would upheld the Constitution. Also, we need to elect as many conservative Senators and Congressmen so that they would block any liberal judge, and nominate conservative judges who would interpret the Constitution. Sen. Demint, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, and few others on the Senate are doing a superb job by blocking Obama's appointees in various Judicial Branch. Giving Newt's liberal stance on various issues (global warming, TARP, and cap and trade), I would say Gov. Rick Perry would be a better candidate and deserves our support on reforming the Judicial Branch. Under Gov. Rick Perry's watch, the Texas Supreme Court became one of the most conservative court in America. He would do the same for the Supreme Court and the Circuit Court and other lower courts.
Purpleguy| 11.16.11 @ 2:00PM
Newt bloviates a lot, but words are cheap and his world is fantasyland - ain't gonna happen. This country is progressive and always has been from the very start. Now the Framers expected us to use the Amendment process to change things over time, but they also made it difficult to do, so the reinterpretation of the Constitution was used, rightly or wrongly, for continued progress in this country. Elsewise, we would have no Transcontinental Railroad, no Interstate Highway System, Interstate commerce and a myriad of other modern building blocks of our nation. they all violate the Constitution.
VonMisesJr| 11.16.11 @ 9:31AM
The problem is that the Republican "liberal" Establishment and the Republicans in the Legislative Branch are gone missing. Where was the supremcy of the Courts when Obama, Salazar and Napolitano told Judge Feldman to take a flying (bleep) at a rolling donut when the good Judge declared the moratorium on drilling in the Gulf invalid?
Well we find out now that Boehner was busy with insider trading along with Pelosi and Moran. Mitch was fighting for continuation of earmarks. And Karl Rove was busy undermining the TEA Party.
This is why we need someone like Cain or Perry whom at least declare that they will dismantle the cabal in DC. This includes the elitist "supermen" in congress and the activist Judges.
I was just joking about "supermen" in congress. They are actually mostly bafoons and crooks.

Gov. Rick Perry laid out a plan on reforming the Judicial Branch. He is a sold conservative and has a proven record on fiscal and social agenda. Under his watch, the TX Judicial System became one of the conservative court systems in America. He appointed the most conservatives judge, and waged a war against the EPA over regulations, with the judicial system on our side. He is the best candidate to overhaul the Judicial Branch, who would never settle with those liberal nuts.

Actually, it's not. In an actual Court of Justice, you would be right. But, in the Court of Public Opinion, Herman Cain is a woman abuser until HE can prove otherwise. The hint of impropriety is usually enough to d* a politician - which of course he has never been. So this is the first time he has been vetted for office and he's not doing to well... how many is it now 6 women he groped? 2 or 3 that he settled with - and why were they paid off? People don't throw money around for no reason, now do they. My God woman open your eyes.

The least accountable branch of our government has become the most dangerous, thanks to a feckless and gutless congress and series of leftist presidents, who knew it only takes 9 people to control all 300M Americans.
Our corrupt Congress has ceded its responsibility to the huge bureaucracy it has created to impliment its leftist political agenda, and has insured that leftist justices occupy the judiciary to thwart the will of the people.
Meanwhile, they stand around the floor of their respective chambers, slapping themselves on the backs, cracking jokes, and sharing their latest insideer trading information to see who made the most money last month in the market.
America is in serious trouble and grave danger. We need a real leader to lead us away from Obozo's and the left's march to Marxism. Newt has the intellectual capacity and firepower to step up and become a transcending and transformational leader that can halt America's decline.
But Newt has made serious mistakes; it is up to him to prove to us that will make an unequivical promise and dedication to Reagan conservativism, stand firm, and not waiver nor drift to the center.
We have few options left as a Nation, we need a serious game changer, or America is finished.

The GOP Primaries in presidential, senatorial, and congressional level matter, because the most conservative candidates should win the primary race, and thus gaining a majority in the congress and a conservative President will only ensure that no liberal judge would ever get nomination.

sirbourbon| 11.16.11 @ 10:25AM
Cheerleading for another Washington insider that will continue government meddling in the free market. This article leaves out the real Newt.
Gingrich has for much of his career been a fan of the failed government-sponsored businessess exemplified by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, the giant mortage lending institutions that hired Newt to lobby on their behalf paying him a substantial fee for developing talking points to reluctant GOP congressmen sick and tired of corporatism.
Fannie and Freddie have had their facist butts saved many times due to self serving "historians" like Newt that have handed these cheats Billions of public dollars ( $250 billion and the $775 billion in Federal Reserve Fannie/Freddie securities purchases) to bail out the two companies.
Gingrich also consulted for another corporatist "enterprise," the ethanol industry/lobby group. The Wall Street Journal labeled Gingrich "Professor Cornpone" due to Gingrich's sweet corn deal from the ethanol racketeers the sum of $315,000 in consulting fees.
While out on the stump, the gingrich that stole and stole from taxpayers Christmas has put up quite an imaginative defense for his past newt-like behavior with Freddie and Fannie.
Writing for TheNewAmerican.com, Thomas Eddlem opines: " At a November 15 campaign event in Sheffield, Iowa, according to CNN, Gingrich said, 'Let me draw a distinction: Government-sponsored enterprises which includes the Transcontinental Railroad has a long history of being fairly successful.' ...
"Gingrich should have known that the Union Pacific Railroad, chartered in 1862 with $100 million from Congress, was part of the 1872 Crédit Mobilier congressional bribery scandal and declared bankruptcy several times. Using the Union Pacific as a model for a good public-private partnership was a poor choice for touting public-private partnerships, but perhaps a good example if he wanted to explain why they inevitably become failures." http://www.thenewamerican.com/.....reddie-mac

Then think about who can inspire the nation and have the most confidence. Who has a vision worth while and is most articulate. Who can deal with Obama and his minions in debates most effectively. Who has the most guts to go beyond the PC rules and is willing to really stick it to the Socialists ? And, who is most willing when Socialists do something truly outrageous to not only call them on it but go to the American people.

But he always seems to be against TEA Party or AFP backed candidates such as Sharon Angle, Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Herman Cain and seems like Rick Perry too. There is too much Agenda21 elitism in rove for us "Noble Savages" and collectively the "bewildered herd."

Tell me again who blew up the budget.Democrats haven't had one for 5 years and have tripled the deficit. KABOOM!!!
gary siebel| 11.16.11 @ 12:16PM
Yes, but.... since the attempted coup de tat of Clinton and the tainted election of Cheney/Bush, both parties seem to have forgotten that what happens to one can also happen to the other. The beauty of America is that nobody gets PERMANENT control, and paybacks are a bitch. Keep all four wheels on the pavement and there will be no need for paybacks.
What's interesting is the attempted rehab of Nute. I realize the Repub field is weak, but Mr Grandstander cannot dump his baggage like his wives, so I assume this is all about the VP slut position -- oops, I mean slot.
Perhaps Repubs should just throw in the towel on this one and start positioning for 2016, or focus more on the Senate races. Perhaps they already are because it's difficult to take this gang of 8 (?) seriously. They are making the same mistake Dems made in regards to Bushie ... making it personal about Obama. If he is assassinated, as seems to be encouraged in the TAS forums, the Repubs will be damaged for decades. They will not be able to escape blame as they did with crazy Jared. The first thing I thought of when idiot Perry said he would treat Bernanke "ugly," was November 22, 1963.
There are as many conservative activist judges as there are liberal ones. Repubs are picking the wrong themes. Relentlessly attacking the Constitution is NOT a viable theme for either party.

How very interesting that you support what the legislature (Congress) has passed and the President has signed with no judicial opinion to validate or not. That is exactly what the Healthcare Affordability Act is - passed by duly elected representatives of the people needs no opinion by the Supremes as valid or no.
Jabber3| 11.16.11 @ 12:57PM
A closer look at Newt's record reveals someone who is perhaps good at "brainstorming" and considers himself a “futurist” but he is not good at selling his ideas to those who must implement them. He seems to speak authoritatively and with certainty especially when making up his own facts or when criticizing ideas opposed to his own. He seems almost provoked by ideas that are not his. Newt does not have the temperament to be president, he has a mean temper, plus he has had more marriages than some polygamists. If that is not enough he is the only speaker of the House to have been disciplined for multiple ethics violations.
Melvin| 11.16.11 @ 1:20PM
"Newt's Calista problem."
People, if you want a political candidate that is pure of heart, pure of virtue, pure of morals, pure of everything under the conventional Sun, then you have two choices. Elect Jesus Christ, or Mitt Romney.
Newt Gingrich when it is time to take his dirt nap, is going to have to answer for his sins to a higher authority than you and I.
I want a Presidential Candidate who has an articulate vision and the willingness to make hard choices, and lead us as a whole Country out of this quagmire of domestic and foreign policies.
I don't want to marry the man, at this particular point in history I could give a damn about his personal issues. That is for God to decide, not you and me as I noted before.
We need someone who has the depth and knowledge of the inner-workings of the all three branches to get us out of the shit sandwich that we are in.
Conservatives for some strange reason want candidates as pure as the wind driven snow. !!It isn't going to happen Conservatives. Look at it, the election is less than a year away and we still have our thongs in a wad over the minute things that don't effect our Country on iota.
Is Calista Gingrich going to make our taxes go down? Is Calista Gingrich going to make in rain in Texas, No, no, and no.
We have two candidates right now that are palatable to Conservatives. Newt Gingrich and Herman Cain. Romney and Perry as just younger versions of John McCain.
!!Dammit people, we have to focus on defeating a man who is hell bent on destroying everything we knew this Country stands for, and tearing your hair out over Calista Gingrich is not going to defeat Obama.
If it takes swallowing your moral compass, then so be it, because if this Country goes down the crapper your morals compass isn't going to matter a Tinkers damn.

Newt is the part of the Washington establishment, we need somebody who is outside of Washington; and Rick Perry is the leader who has the courage, commitment, conviction, and experience, and who can stand with the American people and fix the fiscal crisis and reform the Judicial Sector, with a bold, common sense, and conservative approach. Rick Perry did it in Texas, and he will do the same for the American people.
Bill| 11.16.11 @ 2:02PM
As a Evangelic Christian and solid conservative, Gov. rick Perry can unite the GOP voters and oust Obama in a landslide. Rick Perry is second to none.

Hello Margie, when I see Gov. Rick Perry, I see Ronald Reagan. Reagan was the greatest President of all time, but he game amnesty to 2 million illegals, yet Reagan is our hero. No way out without a sold leader like Rick Perry. You can pick Cain, Newt, or Mitt, and then Obama wins in a landslide.

The liberal media and even few conservative pundits (unfortunately) are undermining Gov Rick Perry and empowering other candidates (Cain, Newt, Huntsman), who had a dismal record on fiscal and social issues, matter to the conservative voters. Cain supported the TARP, Newt was for the global warming, Jon Huntsman was the ambassador of China under Obama, and Mitt supported the auto bailout and the TARP. Gov Rick Perry opposed all of them.
Bill| 11.16.11 @ 2:09PM

He's a true conservative and as far as I can see, true Christian.
He doesn't have to lie to be who he is, or to get where he is. A man of integrity.

Notice how the liberal media, CNN and MSNBC, poke fun on Rick Perry's performance in the debate and air it over and over, while they abandoned Cain's sexual harrasment story, and ditch Newt's story of three marriages and two divorce. They are afraid of Rick Perry, because he will defeat Obama in a landslide.
Melvin| 11.16.11 @ 2:37PM
I hate to be the party pooper here. But some Conservatives have a hard time letting go. Ronald Wilson Reagan is lying in a crypt in California. He is not coming back, he is not rising from the grave from divine powers, Ronnie's gone people, and I miss him just as bad as anyone.
It is a disservice to candidates to compare President Reagan to them. We pray, we clench our fists and beg the almighty to let President Reagan walk upon the earth of mortal men again.
It is not going to happen. President Reagan was the right man for he right time in our Nation's history.
Now another man or woman with vision, and leadership has to pick up the baton of freedom, rule of law, and a representative form of government and run with it.
Will this candidate be perfect? No. but one thing that is fore sure as the Sun coming up in the morning. That Republican candidate whomever they may be, must be guided by core Conservative principals.
Additionally the Christian Right must stop being baited by the media. The media knows full well that Conservatives of the Christian Right can immediately lose their focus if a media story about abortion, or marriage, or any other topic that the Christian Right holds dear.
The Christian Right needs to stop being baited and keep it's focus on defeating Obama about the economy and foreign policy. Those two issues can bring down the giant.

Newt is entirely accurate in that these judges and the Judiciary have far too much political power, and the Democrats know this and use it to their full advantage. When the will of the people as expressed by voting for conservatives and Republicans is carried out, Democrats run to their judges [who along with their lawyer co-conspirators in crime are all Democrats and politically/financially support the Democratic Party] and overturn this voted will. Additionally, most congressional legislators are former lawyers/judges [or at least have law degrees] and once again, the Democrats are the recipients of their partisaned political influence. So the outcome is that the average working/business man/woman/employee etc is behind the political eight-ball due to the influence within the legal community for Democrat sponsored/favored legislation/policies from many different angles, not just from that of judicial decisions of various courts. The remedy is simple, and that is to elect conservative Republicans to political offices [and to avoid candidates with any former/present connections to the legal community and therefore to the Democratic Party]!!!!!!!!

Anyone with one one hundreth of a brain can see how utterly phoney they are and that they are politically motivated.
No one should be too sure of any candidate yet--too soon.( of course I am sure of Huntsman and Paul--no votes for them ) Lets see how Romney responds to hit pieces and Newt and all the others.

Margie,
To whom did Jesus hand the keys to heaven and tell the other apostles that this man would be the rock on which His church would be built. The "rock" that Jesus ordained is the first Pope of His church on earth.
http://www.biblegateway.com/pa.....ersion=NIV
Margie| 11.17.11 @ 1:08PM
Jesus Christ is the Rock of MY Salvation, and He's also the Rock of Israel.
I care not to know another.
I cry aloud like King David, my brother, as he prophesied of Christ:
"He shall cry to Me, 'Thou art My Father, My God, and the Rock of my Salvation.'" Ps. 89:26.
.."yet his bow remained unmoved, his arms were made agile by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob (by the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel)," Gen. 49:24.
"The God of Israel has spoken, the Rock of Israel has said to me: When one rules justly over men, ruling in the fear of God.." 2 Sam. 23:3.
"You shall have a song as in the night when a holy feast is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one sets out to the sound of the flute to go to the mountain of the LORD, to the Rock of Israel." Is. 30:29.
There is no such thing in the Bible as "Popes", nor a church hierarchy. God HATES that.
sirbourbon| 11.19.11 @ 7:14PM
You sidestepped the pertinent passage in which God handed Saint Peter ( the rock ) the keys to heaven. Whatever shalll be bound on earth shall be bound in heaven meaning that the church in this world that we live has authority given to it by God. You can't get any closer to a father on heaven than the apostle Peter. Pope means papa or more formerly father.
I am not arguing that the Pope is the savior only that the passage has relevance because of Matthew 16: 18 thru 20
"And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
Then he ordered his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.
Jesus left Peter the first papa (Pope) of the church on earth in charge.
Self interpretation of Holy scipture is more than not goes off the beam.
Margie, you are Christian as are millions of others on this planet but is word Christianity in the Bible? Christian is and therefore we can deduce from Christian(s) the movement we know today as Christianity.
Pope is a child's word for "father." Since Jesus said that we must be as children, trusting in our heavenly father totally and in so doing we may be saved.
Matthew 18:3
English Standard Version (ESV)
"Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
Cross references:Matthew 18:3 : Luke 22:32 Matthew 18:3 : Matthew 19:14; Mark 10:15; Luke 18:17; Psalm 131:2; 1 Cor 14:20; 1 Pet 2:2 Matthew 18:3 : Matthew 5:19, 20

Dear G*d,
Please in all of your wisdom can you help Paul Ryan see the light and make him and Scott Walker decide to run for president?
I don't like anyone that is on the current list and the guy who's in office right now scares the ever loving crap out of me!
I know that in all of your wisdom that you can tend to do things in a sort of round-about way like the floods and Noah or the Ten plagues that befell Egypt, but can you please have someone START to act like they know what they are doing?
I mean...... Romney looks and acts like a sour over coiffed live action Ken doll and I heard an awful rumor that he is one of those Mennonites from Utah!
Ron Paul wants us to go back to the 1700's and change everything but I don't think that even he knows what he's saying but he is blessed because he sure can make Grandpa Angus happy!
Newt can't keep it in his pants but he knows an awful lot about the constitution and history so I guess he could use your guidance right now to maybe help him along right now
Michelle...........well its Michelle, so enough said there already...
Herman Cain sounds ok and I think he might not be bad but could you help him out on the foriegn policy stuff a little. Oh... and please send the left wing media straight to hell for the whole fake sex stuff that they are saying about him..
What's wrong with Rick? Did he eat some paint chips or something recently? If so can you please help him and maybe see that he takes a nice quiet vacation in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania? I think he needs it Lord...
Dear G*d? Who Is John Huntsman?
and please do not forget to help Mr. Perry from Texas..... I think he needs all the help he can get right now!
and last but not least....... Please bless Barrack Obama, Joe Biden, Harry Reid, John Boehner, and all of the other misguided people of the world who need our help and cannot see the light, but most especially, please bless the Supreme court.
Thank you G*d..... I.J.N.
Amen.......
Oh and...... G*d Bless Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers!

I mean, there's a lot of things I like and things I don't like about each of them, but I know that you want us to vote a Republican in office because they're the best we've got.
And I know nothing's done without Your willing it. Nothing.
So, I ask you Lord Jesus, please put it in the hearts and minds of the people to vote for the best conservative we've got.
And I pray that You don't allow the Democrats to co-opt our Primaries.. that somehow we conservatives get out there and vote in the Primaries for our candidate.. whether it be Perry, Cain or Newt who seem to be the ones.. and Romney, but I don't want it to be Romney,
But in all, may Your Will be done.
Thank you, Lord Jesus. Praise your Holy Name.

"But in Gingrich they have a foe who has proven he knows how to beat the establishment, and has the guts to take them on."{ --Ferrara}
What a ridiculous statement when Gingrich is a favorite "Establishment" water boy.
Remember NAFTA that treaty that Newt championed that placed NAFTA courts above our own country's courts! Remember GATT that Newt said would be a "transformational" shift of power away from America to an international bureaucracy that would control our nation's commerce instead of congress?
sirbourbon| 11.17.11 @ 1:27AM
FDR and his unitarian presidential feeding frenzy is not something a conservative like Mr. Ferrara should be applauding!
First off FDR instigated a war with Germany's ally Japan in order to save Stalin's hide from the Nazis. FDR' motives were not to bring about swift justice but to destroy the constitutional protections for all Americans by his heavy handed dictatorial display of power regarding the saboteurs.
Thoms Eddlem at The New American writes on this historical event:
"World War II marked the first time since the Civil War when a President created a military commission that would remove most of the civil-liberties protections guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution from those accused of war crimes. And like Lincoln, President Roosevelt made no exemption for U.S. citizens. Eight Nazi spies and saboteurs came ashore on Long Island, New York, and Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, in early 1942, four at each location. All eight had lived in the United States and been trained as saboteurs by the Nazis. One of the eight, Herbert Hans Haupt, was a U.S. citizen. One man in each landing had second thoughts and went to the FBI, foiling both plots. President Roosevelt created a military commission out of thin air, appointing the military judges, banning appeals (other than to himself), changing the rules of evidence, and making a two-thirds vote (rather than unanimity required in courts-martial and civilian courts) necessary for a death sentence.
"When an appeal to the Supreme Court was made known to Roosevelt — a flagrant challenge to his executive order — Roosevelt made it clear he would ignore the law and any ruling by the courts. “I want one thing clearly understood, Francis,” Roosevelt told Attorney General Francis Biddle, according to Biddle’s memoirs. “I won’t hand them over to any United States marshal armed with a writ of habeas corpus.” Justice Harlan Stone was apparently visibly shaken when Roosevelt’s intentions were revealed to the court.
"The Supreme Court — faced with a choice of making a moral stand for the U.S. Constitution and becoming politically irrelevant or agreeing with executive dictatorship during war and keeping the mere appearance of remaining relevant — chose the latter. The court ruled 8-0 in the case of Ex Parte Quirin that the President had the authority to create a military commission under Congress’ declaration of war and that “lawful combatants are subject to capture and detention as prisoners of war by opposing military forces. Unlawful combatants are likewise subject to capture and detention, but in addition they are subject to trial and punishment by military tribunals for acts which render their belligerency unlawful.”
"The justices delayed publishing their decision until months after the executions of six of the defendants had already taken place. (The two informants had received prison sentences). Several Supreme Court justices — including Felix Frankfurter and Robert Jackson — later expressed regret that they had participated in the decision. But the Quirin case remains the most-cited case as a precedent for the Bush and Obama military commissions."

The ultimate way to control this judicial tyranny is the power to amend the Constitution to reverse wrong-headed Supreme Court decisions. The framers entrusted this power to the States when they provided in Article V for the initiation of constitutional amendments by the States as well as Congress. Unfortunately they ignored James Madison's advice and required that the States go through a constitutional convention to initiate a constitutional amendment. Such a convention is fraught with unanswered issues and has never been called, and will never be called, which has left Congress with a de facto monopoly on initiating constitutional amendments. Unsurprisingly, Congress has never passed an amendment restricting its own power.
Therefore, we need to take a step back, go back to the drawing board, and amend the Constitution to conform with Madison's view that States should be able to initiate constitutional amendments without going through the cumbersome hurdle of a convention. Then amendments could be initiated and adopted by the States bypassing Congress to get control of the leviathan that our national government has become. See http://www.timelyrenewed.com.

There is nothing brilliant about the political hack from Georgia. He is a liar, a misogynist, a hypocrit and a neathandral.
He has cheated and lied to all of his wives at one time or another. His comments about women and their rights are disrepectful. He screams at the top of his voice about Dems taking money from Freddie Mac, but then goes to the well to get some for himself. He wouldn't know a constitutional judge if one came up and tapped him on the shoulder. This crap is all about pandering to the woman-hating crowd. Send the fat man packing; no one other than a rapid GOPer is interested.

This is a 2 sided coin. Jackson's contempt of the Supreme courts power was not as well used in ignoring the result of Cherokee Nation vs Georgia,was it?
