Sunstein Attacks Second Amendment

“The constitutions of most of our States assert that all power is inherent in the people; that… it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.”
–Thomas Jefferson to John Cartwright, 1824.

In a lecture at the University School of Law on October 27, 2007, Obama’s administrator of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs emphatically stated that you do not have a right to own firearms. “It is striking and noteworthy,” said Cass Sunstein, “that well over two centuries since the founding, the Supreme Court has never suggested that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to have guns.”

It is said Sunstein is a constitutional scholar. And yet he fails to mention that opinions dealing with the Second Amendment come from almost every period in the Court’s history and almost all of them are consistent with the proposition that the Second Amendment is an individual right. See David B. Kopel, The Supreme Court’s Thirty-five Other Gun Cases: What the Supreme Court Has Said about the Second Amendment.

“My coming view is that the individual right to bear arms reflects the success of an extremely aggressive and resourceful social movement and has much less to do with good standard legal arguments than [it] appears,” Sunstein said elsewhere in the lecture (not included in the above clip). “My tentative suggestion is that the individual right to have guns as it’s being conceptualized now is best taken as a contemporary creation and a reflection of current fears — not a reading of civic-centered founding debates.”

“Mr. Sunstein’s overt hostility to the idea that the Constitution protects an individual right to bear arms, including for purposes of self-defense, is not something that should be welcomed from somebody whose job might entail weighing in on the value of anti-gun regulations. It also makes his more recent assurances that he is a Second Amendment stalwart seem rather disingenuous, at the very least,” an editorial published by The Washington Times stated last September.

In July of 2009, Sunstein sent a letter to Sen. Saxby Chambliss of Georgia assuring him that he strongly believes the Constitution protects an individual right to bear arms. “Your first question involved the Second Amendment. I strongly believe that the Second Amendment creates an individual right to possess and use guns for purposes of both hunting and self-defense. I agree with the Supreme Court’s decision in the Heller case, clearly recognizing the individual right to have guns for hunting and self-defense. If confirmed, I would respect the Second Amendment and the individual right that it recognizes.”

In response, Chambliss dropped his hold on the nomination of Sunstein to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. In other words, Sunstein lied about the Second Amendment in order to fool Congress into accepting his nomination.

It’s too bad Chambliss didn’t see the above video before voting to confirm Sunstein. If he had, Sunstein would probably not be in the government now. He would not be threatening to close down the First and Second Amendments.

‘American Idol’ VIDEO…’Pants on the Ground’…Platt marched w/ Dr King…

American Idol’s “Pants (on the Ground)” on Fire

A video of the self-styled General performing his song – with its plaintive lyrics about low-slung trousers – has received over a million hits on Youtube.

The 62-year-old is rivalling Susan Boyle as a YouTube talent show sensation. Within 48 hours of his appearance on television on Wednesday night, Pants On The Ground had been remixed and offered as a downloadable ringtone.

Platt effortlessly upstaged the other contestants at the Atlanta auditions with his performance, which had the judges in stitches.

“I have a horrible feeling that song could be a hit,” Simon Cowell said.

Platt was inspired to write the song when he saw a young man walking down the street with his pants hanging below his waist.

“He had his underwear showing. He was being disrespectful so I wanted to embarrass him,” explained Platt, a veteran of the civil rights movement who marched alongside Rev Martin Luther King.

“After all this work I did with Dr King – walking around with your pants on the ground? They’re going to have to get them up. I’m sorry.”

He is hoping to record Pants On The Ground as a single. “Some people tried to steal my song but they can’t sing like me. I’m going to go around the world singing my song,” he said.

Jimmy Fallon used the song in his show on Thursday night, breaking into Pants On The Ground mid-way through his Neil Young impression.

MTV’s Jersey Shore…Hot J-Woww Punches Mike “The Situation”…Recap Episode 7… VIDEO

Jersey Shore J-woww Punches The Situation with a crushing left back fist

Ronnie Magro and Sammi Giancola make up after the Boardwalk fight — Sammi, angry that Ronnie pushed her in his attempt to stop her from provoking their heckler further, tells him she would never let a guy touch her like that twice. Then, in perhaps the best quote of the evening, she tells him as he ices his forehead, “I am sorry that your face looks like this.”

Later than night, Ronnie and Sammi confront Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi about her complaint earlier in the night that they are isolating themselves from the rest of the house. Snooki claimed all the housemates were upset, but later backtracks and says it’s just her and Jenni “JWoww” Farley. Snooki apologizes. Most boring “controversy” ever.

At the club, Snooki hits it off with Keith — “I meet this guy at the bar. First off I see muscles, so I’m, like, okay, like, this guy is my type, but he’s, like, Irish and he talks like a cowboy.” Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino hooks up with a girl named Paula; they end up in the hot tub with champagne. I see tongues. (I can’t believe I am missing the “Project Runway” premiere for this.)

Vinny Guadagnino is vibing with Tonya on the hammock; she’s getting turned on by the situation in the hot tub. Which is to say, The Situation in the hot tub. Clearly The Situation’s tongue affects some women differently. Snooki shows up with the Irish cowboy; that’s The Situation and Paula’s cue to exit the roof deck. Unfortunately, Paula does so on her rear end. Ouch.

Snooki and Keith end up in her bedroom but they don’t have sex. Snooki would have, though, because “he’s clean.” That’s actually not a bad standard to have. Better than “muscles.” Or “can breathe through his nose.”

Paula and The Situation end up in his bed while Pauly Delvecchio slumbers in the next bed. Lauren, Paula’s friend, shows up the next morning banging on the front door. Apparently Paula’s family has been worried sick about her, so Lauren frog-marches upstairs to get her clothes — which she can’t find — then out the door. Turns out the walk of shame is even more shameful when your best friend makes you do it. The Situation makes himself scarce.

They head out to a club. We finally see what prompted Vinny’s truly disturbing eyebrow waggle featured in the credits. It’s Mike’s sister Melissa, whom he thinks might have a crush on him.

At the club, Sammi can’t find Ronnie, so The Situation helpfully points out that Ronnie is talking to two humans who happen to lack Y chromosomes. Sammi is not happy about this. Yeah, surprise. “Were you just talking to somebody?” she yells at Ronnie. Ronnie blames The Situation. Ronnie and Sammi make up. Yeah, surprise.

Pauly finds a nice Jewish girl who tries to turn him on to kosher food, but he just wants to get her in bed. She refuses to have sex before she gets married.

The Situation isn’t too pleased to see Vinny and Melissa getting close, and we imagine he’s going to be very unhappy to see the footage of Melissa slipping into Vinny’s bed later that night.

The gang decide to head down to Atlantic City one night. The Situation and Snooki get into a fight over dinner, and when he makes a below-the-belt crack about her weight, she leaves the table. He looks abashed, but tries to justify himself. Snooki, who used to have an eating disorder, tells JWoww, “I have never had so much anger for anybody ever in my whole &^^$ life.” Back in the hotel room, The Situation finally issues a pretty smarmy apology — we interrupt this recap to say, holy crap, how are JWoww’s boobs staying inside that tiny shirt? Is 3M sponsoring this episode? — and Snooki eventually forgives him.

A woman starts giving Vinny what for all intents and purposes is a lap dance at the club, and when he excuses himself for a moment, The Situation moves in on her, and then she starts giving The Situation a lap dance. Ronnie and Sammi leave around 4 a.m.; he says they’ve been there since midnight, and five hours is enough. No, that is not a typo.

JWoww throws up in the bathroom, and then demands that The Situation take her back to the room. Hmmm, lap dance or vomitous roommate? Tough Call. When The Situation decides to stay where he is, JWoww smacks him in the back of the head. The bouncers escort her from the club. When The Situation returns the hotel room, JWoww smacks him on the back of his head again, then punches him in his mouth, and says her goodnights.
