Over the months since the site started, many videos have appeared on CH 2.0. Here are some that are classics.
This is my video on lies from the MSM.
This one points out the lies about single payer…and yes the left and the administration are the ones lying!
This one is again about lying, by the left of course!
The speech that launched Ronald Reagan’s Political Career.
I believe that future generations should have the same opportunities that myself, and those that came before me, had. My parents taught me that I could do anything I wanted to do. I don’t want to have to tell my daughter, “You can do whatever the government tells you to do.” We are at a crossroads in this country; are we going to be free, or are we going to be slaves to the nanny state. I choose freedom. 
Enjoy your week.

Regarding how we can help protect companies like Caterpillar by putting the big, Constitution-ignoring federal government back on its constitutional leash, please consider the following. People need to be made aware of the anti-state sovereignty 16th and 17th Amendments, IMO.
More specifically, as evidenced by Article I, Section 3, Clause 1, the Founders had established the federal Senate to be the voice of the constitutionally powerful state legislatures in the Constitutionally humbled federal government. And the constitutionally powerful states are important where federal taxes versus state taxes are concerned. This is evidenced by the following case precedent established by Chief Justice Marshall, but now wrongly ignored by both federal and state lawmakers. Justice Marshall wrote that the federal government cannot lay taxes in the name of state power issues.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” –Chief Justice Marshall, GIBBONS V. OGDEN, 1824.
With this in mind, consider that not only is Obamacare, for example, constitutionally unauthorized as evidenced by the federal Constitution’s silence on public healthcare, but Justice Marshall’s official words appropriately indicate that neither does Congress have the power to lay taxes to fund Obamacare.
So ideally, when constitutionally clueless FDR cried for Congress to make constitutionally unauthorized tax and spending legislation in the 1930s and 40s, legislation which not only usurped state powers but also stole hard-earned citizen dollars that should never have left the states, federal senators should have stood up and stopped Congress from giving FDR what he wanted.
So why didn’t federal senators stop Congress from approving legislation which usurped state powers and stole associated taxes? After all, as previously mentioned, the Founders had established the federal Senate to protect state interests.
To begin with, mostly rural US citizens seem to have forgotten about state sovereignty before 1913. This was the year that state legislatures unthinkingly ratified the ill-conceived, anti-state sovereignty 16th and 17th Amendments.
And I surmise that the reason that state legislatures ratified these amendments is this. Not only had the people evidently forgotten about state sovereignty since the Civil War, but the lawmakers that they were electing to their state legislatures must have been as state sovereignty-impaired as the voters were.
As a side note to the possibility of widespread ignorance of state sovereignty after the Civil War, consider this. The Pledge of Allegiance, written in 1892 by a Christian Socialist, is arguably pro-big federal government propaganda. This is evidenced by the words, “one Nation,” and “indivisible” in the Pledge. Indeed, given such wording, the Pledge has been arguably diluting the idea of state sovereignty in the minds of school children for many generations.
Getting back to the insane 16th and 17th Amendments, not only must voters have filled state legislatures with constitutionally inept lawmakers by 1913, but voters did an “encore performance” by using their new 17th A. power to likewise fill federal Senate seats with lawmakers who were evidently as constitutionally-impaired as the clowns that they had been sending to the state legislatures.
So by the time that FDR demanded his social spending programs from Congress, instead of getting the resounding “hell no” that he deserved from a state sovereignty-saavy Senate, a Senate that understood that its job was to protect state sovereignty, constitutionally inept federal senators unthinkingly did the following. Senators told FDR, “Anything you want FDR,” just as state legislators had unthinkingly ratified the 16th and 17th Amendments decades earlier.
And since FDR was in office long enough to nominate eight pro-big federal government justices by the early 40s, all constitutional firewalls to protect state sovereignty from a corrupt, power-hungry federal government had ultimately failed.
Again, the consequence of the 16th and 17th Amendments is that state lawmakers stupidly made it difficult for themselves to fight constitutionally unauthorized federal laws and taxes legislated by a corrupt Congress that the state legislatures no longer had a voice in.
Are we having fun yet?
What a mess! :^(
The bottom line is that Constitution-defending patriots have a big mess to clean up in both the federal and state legislatues in this year’s midterm elections.
Good Constitutional arguments, I know that Mark Levin has a brief and lawsuit ready to file the minute the bill passes.
He did raise some good ones, didn’t he? I hope he comes back.
Thanks for the comment. These are all things that need to be addressed.
Well, it’s for sure that you have given us all food for thought with this article, Matt. When you start digging around and learning what is at the core of the progressive agenda, it’s more than a little troubling. There really is a stark and contrasting difference between them and us. They are attempting to place a monetary value on life and we are convinced there is no such value. Simply put, the value of life is the life itself.
Great article.
Throughout history, totalitarians have announced their intentions. I work under that assumption all the time. As you can see, the folks on the left openly state what they think and plan. It’s up to us, as the people, to take that information and demand that such genocidal nonsense be stopped.
The Left, I think, views “life” as something selfish, what one does for oneself (like imposing your views on how people should live on others) whereas Conservatives view “life” as something you do not only for yourself but, by extension, for everybody else… including letting them have the FREEDOM to make their own decisions if they affect only themselves.
You are right, and the left will never get it.
The left is for choice when it comes to a woman’s “right” to abortion, but when it comes to our right over our body vis a vis our medical care, then the left wants to be in charge of that…
Good piece, Matt.
It’s all part of the left’s redefining of freedom. Want to kill a baby? SURE! Want to marry a cow, tree, or mailbox? SURE! Want freedom? YOU IGNORANT REDNECK TEABAGGER!!!!
You can marry mailboxes now??
Well, I was just trying to make up something ridiculous, but it would give a whole new meaning to “going postal!”
Matt, Another outstanding article! The progressives do all the things you mention because they truly believe that it is in the best interest of the world for them to determine who should live and who should die. Many of those who have supported their agenda, do not even realize that they do are marked for elimination. History shows that nations ruled by any form of government with an “ism” in it’s name eventually face a culling of those perceived to be on the extremes occurs. If left unchecked, this leads eventually to all perceived people outside of the norms established by the “ism” being removed from society. The radicals for gay rights, the radicals for supporting traditional Christian values, and the outspoken lovers of liberty will all share the same fate as the indigents, the homeless, the disabled, and the elderly. The leaders of “ism” in the end have no mercy for those whom they perceive as valueless or those whom do not bow to their control of the masses. God help us in this coming year as people in our government push “hell bent” further into the culture of death.
Thanks Dr. Bill, that means a lot.
As for your points, you are 100% correct. I try to remind useful idiots of their eventual fate, but they are blinded by their own ideology.
Great post AG. I stand by the Founders and believe in a limited government that protects the rights of the citizens not on that grants rights. We need to rediscover the meaning of federalism and the relationship between the states and federal government…and we need to do this sooner than later.
Oustanding, AG!
THIS is a powerful statement my friend:
“Conservatives are reclaiming their political power in the wake of the leftist takeover of Washington and this is something that should be cheered by all parts of the political spectrum… if successful, conservatives will hold Republicans accountable for their mismanagement and for their complicity in the culture of corruption that engulfs both parties.“
Thanks for this post AG. I thought it fitting to post this on the day of the ObamaCare vote. I think it’s a good reminder of where we are, and we we’re supposed to be.
Great job, AG. I especially liked this part.
That pretty much sums it up. Most of the liberals I talk to have a bullseye on that subject. They do not like the idea that a particular individual is having a hard time making a good living in America, when other individuals are making it just fine, with room and money to spare. Their answer to that is to take from the second group and give to the first group and that is in direct conflict with the principles America was founded on.
Great post! Yes, conservatism is making a comeback and we will make a change in November. This goes for Republicans that have lost their way as well.
It may be a hoax but when the Dems try to pass the “doc fix” in a few weeks it won’t matter if it was a hoax or not. The end result will be a higher deficit.
hey Matt and all!..this horror is too unimaginable…Pray it doesnt pass!
Great find Don! Let’s spread this around and see what people think.
Now, surely they wouldn’t be lying to us, Matt. Maybe you are mistaken or have the wrong video posted.
Signed,
Shocked in Oklahoma!!
Dear Shocked in Oklahoma,
You are most surely right. The evil ignorant, uneducated, racist, homophobic, and stupid teabaggers edited this video with their advanced knowledge of technology.
We believed from the beginning that either they were lying or that there were “plants” in the group who yelled out racist remarks. Question is…will the news media report the truth? I know, dumb question.
I often catch myself expecting them to do their jobs…silly me!
Doesn’t sound like anything has really changed. SOP.
More of the same old stuff, lies, and then lying about the lies.
Such a great article, Matt. I’d also like to ask your permission to forward your message, with full credit and website inclusion, to fellow patriots on my e-mail list around the US. As you wrote, we as individuals need to support & strength of others, and my political e-mail group provides same for all of us.
Thanks,
Ellen
I too saw this in the MSM, but passed on it for fear of it being so much “bait” to make the Tea Partiers look bad. Good find on the video, Matt.
Eh, I just found out that others had found it.
I don’t know who shouted slurs, to be thats not important! Have we really reached a point in this country where certain words are forbidden–I hope not. I’m sick at political correctness and even sicker of those on the right who fall into this trap–to be these are the worst of the lott.
In the end, it probably won’t matter, the MSM and the left get’s to make their claim, and this video will never be seen, other than on the internets, and maybe on FOX.
MSM do their jobs? They are just another set of aides for Obama, advancing his agenda. They don’t know how to simply report the facts. They are an arm for the Democratic Party. I knew that these accusations of the N-word being yelled had to be false. These libs like to distort the truth when the facts don’t back up their position.
They have to distort the facts, nothing they say or do matches reality!
I’m not at all surprised, Matt. The left are a bunch of @#$%ing liars, pure and simple.
I’m reminded of how MSNBC claimed that white racists armed with guns showed up at an Obama speech in Arizona. They showed a clip of just a clothed torso with a gun strapped to it, so you couldn’t tell the race of the person. FOX showed the same clip– only the whole thing, where you could see that the guy was black.
I had actually done a video on that.
Very eloquent as usual Ken. Great article.
Very well put, Ken. Today is a date of infamy. I feel very sad for America.
These people lie like breathing. They have no shame or honour.
They don’t even retract the lies when there is proof.
I’m glad you found this video, Matt. I think the MSM will take their
time in even acknowledging it’s existence.
Well Bunni, there is an upside to that. they still haven’t figured out that their bias is what is killing them. When they lie, and folks can go on Youtube and see that they’re lying, they lose more viewers. The media paradigm has changed, and they are going to go out of business.
Great as usual Ken. I particularly liked, “This has been an announcement from the Emergency Blog Alert System. If you do not know that there is an emergency, you are part of the problem.” That’s good stuff.
Well said. I never thought I would see what is happening today.
You speak the truth Ken. Thank you. Many people need to hear it. I said in my post last night that we are, after all, Americans. We need to recognize a common enemy. The hard part is converting a selfish population to a thoughtful one. They have been so indoctrinated that they feel it is us who are in the wrong. We need to find several paths of action. Self preservation and education of the populace. I fear the two may be mutually exclusive in terms of personal safety in the coming future.
Sorry to ramble. Thanks for a great post.
I will leave you guys with one last thing.
Even though it’s next to impossible to remain optimistic, the only thing I have to keep me sane and to offer encouragement is my faith that God is involved, whether they know it or not.
I thank you all for your words and support. Over the coming months I suspect that we are going to need the support of each other more than ever. Still, I suspect that the greatness of America, her people, will ultimately rise to the challenge.
Today was not a defeat but rather an unveiling of the Beast to be seen by all for its pervasive evil. Now we face the challenge to slay it; so help us God.
Our only hope is with the states. They control federal courts, they control the both houses of congress, and they control the White House. If we are to accomplish anything before the November election it will have to be on a state level.
Count me in John! This is your finest work, my friend.
