Online Liberty for Freedom and Liberty and Freedom. . . and Liberty

Hey kids, a new web site has popped up: Liberty Central, run by the little woman of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas (we remember him, don't we?), Ginni Thomas, short for Virginia, the state that is also tampering with textbooks this season.

The purpose of the site is clear and quite succinct: "to harness the power of citizen voices, inform everyday Americans with knowledge, and activate them to preserve liberty." Sounds so good, except perhaps for the words "harness" and "activate," which recall certain veterinary terms; but I read on:

"Ginni recognized the need for our country to bridge the gap between our nation’s citizens and its Capitol . . . " (I'm thinking she hasn't been tuning in to CNN, MSNBC, and certainly not to FOX.)

The site continues, ". . . and return to a government that adheres to our core Founding Principles – limited government," (as opposed to one small enough to eliminate the FDA, the IRS and the Pentagon?) ". . .personal responsibility, individual liberty, free enterprise, and national security." Okie-dokie.

Sounds innocuous enough, personal responsibility being truly important in a democracy, or else the whole place sort of. . . uh. . . I guess it collapses or something. It's just unbelievably important.

I mean when Clarence Thomas had the sharkiest lawyers in the world to prove he indeed had not "harassed sexually" his employee, we all witnessed the finest displays of a judge's personal responsibility, no matter whose hair was on that Coca-Cola bottle. Oh my that is disgusting. I think Coke lost ground in the markets that week. Well, it's in the court records, I didn't make it up. But the courts showed us how rotten that woman was, ruled him spittin' clean and let him return to his duties of assuring the S.Court kept a tight "harness" over those "Founding Principles."

To continue with the goals of this wonderful site, "Working alongside like-minded organizations and individuals, Liberty Central assists new citizen-activists in their search for educational resources and for tangible ways to impact our current political environment." Oh. They used "impact" as a verb. Bad form, but I guess we can overlook that, since their goal is clearly to raise even further ground-roots (grass-roots sounds so vulgar, doesn't it?) organizations of private citizens.

And in this time of overwhelming numbers of vital, life-or-death issues, we surely do need another grass--I mean ground-roots organization. It just helps so much to have people involved.

They could join with their neighbors at the border, sit in those lawn chairs that have the handy cup holders made of canvas, armed with Budweiser and various types of weaponry, shoot the breeze, and shoot any illegals that might happen to break through their fierce barrier. I just think that's amazing, for people to give their time like that. Sure, they lose out on episodes of "Lost" and "24," and may have to find another fix for viewing torturous activities after those shows are cancelled, but still. . . . Red blooded Americans, one and all. It's AWESOME, isn't it?

"Ginni," reads her bio, "the ‘proud’ Nebraskan, is a fan of Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin and Laura Ingraham and other talk radio hosts. She is intrigued by Glenn Beck and listening carefully. She also enjoys motor homing and watching “24″. Oh. Motor homing. I wonder if that is a new activity of Homeland Security, could we find out more about that?

Oh, I learned oodles about what's "really" going on today, so be sure to stop by Liberty Central.com. They share a test that actually tells if you're "more Libertarian," or simply a "Relativist," in case we have no clue what our own ideas mean.

And best of all, their "shop" is chock-full of great American merchandise: Polo shirts for men AND the ladies, coffee mugs, and the "Congressional Handbook, 111th Congress, 2nd Session," for those of us who are too dim to scout out U.S. Congress.gov. Granted, most of us do not take such an active interest in government.

We want to, but things get in the way of combing through every detail of those bills and laws. We're harried, figuring out how to pay mortgages, hospital bills, gasoline bills, or income taxes, and also we're worried about the illegals who are about to gun us down in the streets and take our freedoms away. They might just gain control of our free market!

So thank you, Ginni, for taking time out from your talk-radio listening schedule to include us in the Founding Principles and how they affect our everyday American lives. I'm just glad you posed the site before we lose our online search freedoms! Whew, that was close. And we surely will take in those coordinated links you've provided. Even if they do give us panic attacks. . . what's a little terror for the sake of the nation?

  2. I'm callin' you Annie Oakley, Cowgirl! You're just about the sharpest word-shooter around these here parts! It's all about the true aim, and you've damned sure got it!

  3. I hear Tammy Wynette singin' there in the background, I think... Well, where would we be if we didn't have real red-blooded American patri-ettes like the indomitable Ginni--it is an "i", isn't it--to provide real civics lessons and actively activate our activism to be pro-active?

    If she's the only inspiration around, I think I'm gonna have to go back to reading my tea leaves and looking for sacred images in my toast.

  4. hey now! I didn't see a thing here about holsters.......and I have an overwhelming desire to strap on a holster and shoot somebody or at least knock them into next week, as it were. I'd start with Clarence Thomas, just on general principles.
