Yesterday the Weld County commissioners officially opposed the recent National Defense Authorization Act, saying it oversteps the U.S. Constitution. They effectively nullified its operation within Weld County with their actions, and while some may criticize their actions as political grandstanding, others laud it as a bold response from local government.
The commissioners took deliberate steps, consulting with legal counsel and making sure their stance was codified in certain terms. Should other counties or states follow in their steps, Weld County could be used as a blueprint for their actions.
It's good to see government exercising its authority for the rights of the people. Weld County is frugally managed and has zero debt. They have inserted "In God We Trust" into county status. Now they formally oppose NDAA. These are excellent steps! It's good to hear some good news for a change.

Powerball one of the hardest things commanded by Jesus is to LOVE and pray for our enemies. We can HATE the sin but we are to LOVE the sinner, and Jesus died for them as well as us. Try praying for them and asking God to heal your heart as HATE is the work of Satan and of the world.

We will have to take this country back physically. This WILL happen, as the American spirit will not die.
We have been infected by marxist-communists, and it is too late to change that. The best we can do now, is recognize this fact and plan to overthrow our federal government.
America is becoming one of the most communistic nations in the world. Think about it. What can you do, in your daily life, that the feds don't have something to say about? This whole "contraception" issue isn't about contraception. It's about testing the waters. It's about pushing the envelope. They want to know how much they can get away with. They want to know, this election cycle, if they have accomplished their mission of eliminating God from our lives. Combine that with other events surrounding our feds, like "Fast& Furious", which is more than an assault on our 2nd Amendment rights. It's also about arming a certain drug cartel, without the Mexican governments approval, to ensure the flow of illicit drugs into America.
People, we are being assaulted on many fronts; and you sit there watching American Idol. Polls say that this will be a close race for President. Have you eyes? Have you ears? This is some scary stuff folks! I know we don't have much to choose from in the GOP, but we MUST vote against obama (you'd think from a country of 300m+ we could come up with a candidate that all conservatives could vote for), but then again, we are past making a difference with a vote.

The most controversial provisions of the Act receiving wide attention are contained in Title X, Subtitle D, entitled "Counter-Terrorism."
In particular, sub-sections 1021 and 1022, which deal with detention of persons the government
!!!!!! suspects !!!!!!
of involvement in terrorism.
The "suspect" was shot at sunrise.
It was later discovered that the suspect was innocent.
Obamanation proves by his actions daily that he knows nothing about how America works.
He is working for another master.
Impeach the dictator!
God, I hate the man!
