No, health care is not a right.
Fair and balanced is not a right.
Equal time is not a right.
Free housing, free food, free education, free beer, etc, are not rights.
Abortion is not a right.
Gay marriage is not a right.
"Entitlements" are not rights.
In fact, no one is entitled to anything taken from others, including our tax dollars.
And illegal aliens have no right to be here at all, much less rights to entitlements, free housing, free food, free health care, free education, or anything else.
The rights to life, liberty, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, right to keep and bear arms, right to be secure in our homes and persons, right to own and defend private property, rights to trial and to due process, etc, among others, ARE our God-given and constitutionally protected individual rights.
Wealth redistribution is not an enumerated power.
The federal government was never intended to rule over the states or the people, or to regulate and control every aspect of our lives and industries, or to collect taxes from individuals for the purposes of doling out to others as they see fit.
Controlling campaigns and elections to the point of restricting our rights to freedom of speech, freedom of association, freedom to petition the government, etc, are not enumerated powers.
The entire concept of campaign finance reform is, in fact, a gross violation of the first amendment and an abuse of power by all three branches of government and should be condemned.
Obviously, any law infringing on our rights to keep and bear arms is a direct violation of the second amendment and an abuse of power.
Judicial activism is an abuse of power.
Failure to secure and defend our borders is an abdication of duty.
Failure to defend life and liberty is an abdication of duty.
The primary duties of the federal government are to defend our rights, defend our nation and defend our borders. Liberals, moderates and RINOs want the government to do everything but. Why?
The government does a piss poor job of doing what it's supposed to be doing, so why in the world would anyone want it to do anything extra?
America is not a democracy. We are or were supposed to be a republic. Liberalism/socialism is a like a spreading social disease. It's antithetical to life and liberty and will be the death of the republic and the liberty we all hold so dear if allowed to fester unchecked.
Funny how the liberals, aided and abetted by the moderates and RINOs, want to invent and passionately defend extra-constitutional rights for their special interest groups while working overtime to erode away and destroy our actual constitutional rights.
Also funny how they want to invent and use extra-constitutional powers for government, most of which are expressly forbidden by the constitution, while at the same time ignoring their basic constitutional duties to defend life and liberty and to secure and defend the nation and our borders.
Funny, but I’m not laughing.
Free Republic is here to defend our liberty.
It's our mission and duty to secure and defend the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity.
The enemy is within the gates. Don't let the bastards steal away your liberty!
