Dumb Congresswoman: Magazine clips, they’re Bullets

Add Congresswoman DeGette to your list of Dumb Democratic Congresswomen.  She believes that Magazines should be banned because once they are all shot, they will be gone for ever.  Huh?  Well,  let’s let the Congresswoman explain:

deGette“What’s the efficacy of banning these magazine clips? I will tell you, these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now, they’re going to shoot them” says Rep DeGette. According to her, “the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will be shot and there won’t be any more available.”

Yes, she said that!  Her statement is right up there with other Dumb Democratic Congresswomen statements:

  • Congresswoman Shelia Jackson Lee who wanted the Mars Rover to take a photo of the Flag the Apollo Astronauts planted on the moon.  and then was her, “there are two Vietnams North and South”
  • Nancy Pelosi on the economy said, “every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs” or on Health Care bill, “But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.”
  • California Senator Barbara Boxer said  “Those who survived the San Francisco earthquake said, ‘Thank God, I’m still alive.’ But, of course, those who died, their lives will never be the same again.”
  • Congresswoman Maxine Waters on socialism: “Guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal will be about socializing…uh, um…Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.”

Politisite interviews Janine Turner ‘Constituting America’

By Kevin Williams   Entertainment and Politics Editor

JANINE TURNER is an accomplished Actress, successful Entrepreneur, engaged Mom, hard-working Patriot and a studious Constitutionalist.  Best-known for her television roles on FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS and NORTHERN EXPOSURE, Janine has also been seen by millions of people on Fox News Channel’s THE O’REILLY FACTOR and AMERICA LIVE WITH MEGYN KELLY.  Her new PM Drive Time radio show launches on March 18th from Houston, TX and will be available nationally on Sirius-XM Ch. 166 and “I Heart Radio.”  Janine recently took some time out to speak with Politisite about her launching “Constituting America,” the Founding Fathers, Acting in Hollywood and… Executive Orders.

KW:  Many of us have never read or think twice about the U.S. Constitution after our school days.  Why do you think this has occurred over time?

JT:   It’s just not in the cultural forefront anymore. It’s not taught.  Families don’t speak about it.  In the early Revolutionary Days through the early 19th Century, everyone was so thrilled with these new-found liberties and they knew that their children were going to be the future of the Country.  They were so proud and knew of [the Constitution’s] importance.  They weren’t that so distant and far away from tyranny.  I think that the further away we get from tyranny, the more comfortable we get.  And politics seems unapproachable to some people.  And then when they get involved and it doesn’t go their way, they get disappointed and feel powerless.  I think a lot of that is the enormity of our Bills.  In Federalist Paper 62, James Madison says “if the Laws are so voluminous that they cannot be read or so incoherent that they cannot be understood…” He goes on to ask… what’s the point? What is the point in having a legislative branch?  What’s the point in electing our own officials, if we don’t understand anything that is going on.  And I just think that Politics has just gotten enormous and people are frustrated.

KW:  How has a lack of knowledge about our Constitution played into the America we have today, Politically and Culturally?  If you say the word “Constitution,” many folks’ eyes glaze over.  American pop culture is more interested in what Honey-Boo-Boo, One Direction or Beyonce are doing than the Constitution.

Is Alec Baldwin Racist

Loading photos…

 or did the Conservative Media just Painted him that Way

By Laura Lorenzo,  Guest Op-Ed

For the better part of today, I have seen comments about Alec Baldwin, the bane of all conservatives, or at least those who get their banes from Sean Hannity.  He, apparently, called someone a “coon”, because he’s such a horrible person. Of course, that term was passe when Archie Bunker used it, which I recall thinking at the time. I didn’t bother with the New York Post article, because it was the usual gossip, whose subject was neatly communicated in a single tweet. To read the article would be to indulge in the evident “misfortune” of Mr Baldwin, about whom few should have much care in the first place.

New Game: America 2012; Rated M For Everyone

Welcome to America, we’ve got fun and games, and everyone is encouraged to play. As news networks and left wing nuts continue their predictable assault on the 2nd Amendment, the real problems, the problems of a culture that has morphed into a society of sex, drugs, and violence, continue to go on unnoticed.

Please proceed to turn on your television; however, don’t get frustrated, there are only three types of programming available. First off, we have coverage of 26 innocent people being laid to rest, interspersed with clueless reporters repeatedly asking “why, why, why?” Sadly, these puppets are looking for crime and motives in every place but one: the mirror.

No wonder why so many parts of the world despise us; our news programs are hosting a parade of “mental wackos,” trying to determine the psychological deficiencies of Adam Lanza. There is no way we could ever say evil was rooted in this creature, could we? Heck, he only looked right into the eyes of 20 little children and shot them to pieces.
