Russian Threat Takes Interesting Twist

Shocking headline out of Russia. Are we seeing the re-emergence of the Soviet Union?

Putin named PM of Belarus-Russia alliance
Move coordinated between presidents of Russia, Belarus

Same Threats, Different Time

The Gipper At His Best

I know I have posted this video before, but I find it amazing that Ronald Reagan faced the same challenges that we face today. Matter of fact, this speech could have been given in the last week it is so pertinent. The only difference is there was leadership, in the form of Ronald Reagan, back then and we are currently without a leader.

I do believe we have the new leadership coming up in Gov. Sarah Palin and Gov. Bobby Jindal. The question is, are we going to get behind conservative ideals or are we going to settle for the scraps thrown to us by the current leadership? Real problems deserve real solutions and anything less only mortgages our childrens' futures.

Obama collects another $500,000, slams Limbaugh

More than 800 donors packed into a Westin Diplomat Hotel ballroom Thursday night to pad Barack Obama’s war chest by another $500,000, according to this pool report of the evening.

In a speech to the crowd, Obama sharpened his rhetoric against some of the most vocal voices against immigrant workers and migrant worker programs.

“A certain segment has basically been feeding a kind of xenophobia. There’s a reason why hate crimes against Hispanic people doubled last year,” Obama said. “If you have people like Lou Dobbs and Rush Limbaugh ginning things up, it’s not surprising that would happen.”

No. Va. county sees signs of change amid crackdown

Business at Pedro Vargas' store, Club Video Mexico, has slid so steeply that only eight people walked through the door one day last month. One thing he has been selling, however, are one-way bus tickets from northern Virginia to Texas and Mexico. Soon he'll be getting his own ticket out of town--seeking a friendlier and more lucrative place to do business.

The Maritime Sentry Endorses Chuck Baldwin

I would like to start out by saying that we support all conservatives and will continue to support and post articles on Bob Barr. After a lot of ups and downs and new choices during this campaign year the count down has begun. Due to a RINO Republican leadership bent on self destructing the Party and uneducated and lazy voters following like sheep we had John McCain shoved down our throats; a bitter pill I could not and would not take.

I am finished following along and blindly pledging my allegiance to what ever liberal or socialist candidate the Party pushes. Yes, the Republican Party has become no better than that of the communistic Democrat Party. I had decided to vote third party quite some time back; I just needed to find a candidate that shared my views and beliefs. This is what your vote is supposed to be about. If your party does not provide a viable candidate with your beliefs your duty is to put forth the effort to find one that does.

After researching his stands I have found that candidate for me. We here at the Maritime Sentry have discussed the choices and taken the time and put forth the effort and have agreed that the candidate that shares our values and beliefs is Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party. I am confident that those of you who are true Conservatives and Federalists will agree once you have taken the time to read his stands. On every issue crucial to the sovereignty of our Republic and the preservation of our Constitution as it was intended he is right on.

I invite you to learn his stands and chose for yourself. Even if you still chose to support another conservative candidate it will be time well spent. Educating your self is the only way we will win back our founding principles and bring our land back to its origins. The only way to find the path of righteousness is to shed your old ways and start back at the beginning, the cornerstone of your foundation. We must go back to the values that drove the colonists to America in the first place, freedom and religion.

We have become a nanny and policed state with no rights, privacy or freedoms other than those allowed by our government. Those are the things that begin revolutions. Now is the time to begin a new revolution leading us away from the business as usual Republicans and to new parties that will defend what America was meant to be. When elected President Chuck Baldwin will immediately begin the revolution back to the principles our glorious land was founded on and here is how:


Border Security&Illegal Immigration
America’s illegal immigration nightmare ends the day I become President!

Sanctity of Life
I will demand that Congress enact Dr. Ron Paul’s Sanctity of Life Act which would set forth that every unborn child is a ‘person’ under the Constitution, entitled to equal protection of the law and therefore, no unborn child could be killed without due process of law.

A Strong National Defense
We will have a national defense that is second to none, with armed forces that serve only under the American flag, and whose mission will be to defend these United States of America!

American Independence
The globalists are after our sovereignty, our freedom and our national independence. I will stand up for the economic security and independence of our people and the sovereignty of our American republic.

Restoring Liberty
Great are the dangers of giving unlimited, unconstitutional power to a government that does not respect the checks and balances intended by our Constitution and Bill of Rights!

The 2nd Amendment
The Second Amendment Protects Our Liberty! To help keep your family safe and your country free, go buy a gun.

Military Adventures&Empire Building
We will stop this international meddling and empire building. When Chuck Baldwin is sworn in as President of these United States the ‘New World Order’ comes crashing down!

United Nations
As President, I will terminate United States membership in the United Nations.

Being a great and tolerant republic does not mean that we must give up who we are to accommodate what immigrants are. It means that we are so great and unique in who we are that immigrants desire to be a part of it. Those who do not share what we are and demand that we change are only here to destroy us so they may plunder the spoils. That is an invasion, that is not immigration.

We were a glorious republic founded upon God; today we, as a republic, are neither glorious or Godly. Everything that made our nation unique in the world is under attack and the only things that have held us together as a Republic are being undermined and every time we vote for the "lesser of two evils" we destroy more of what unites us. Chuck Baldwin will truly unite our Republic with its freedom and sovereignty and restore our power in the world. During a Chuck Baldwin administration we will regain liberties that have been long lost.

Our leadership has slowly eroded and dissolved your rights such as parental rights, states rights, property rights, freedom of religion, and privacy rights. The government regularly violates the limits placed upon it by the Constitution as a check and balance to assure a limited government. Chuck Baldwin understands that you have been stripped of your Constitution; do you?

Chuck Baldwin on Military Issues:

Catholic League News Release

HAGEE PULLS McCAIN ENDORSEMENT

Pastor John Hagee has pulled his endorsement of Republican presidential candidate John McCain; McCain subsequently renounced Hagee’s endorsement. Catholic League president Bill Donohue commented on this development today:

“One week ago today, I met with Pastor Hagee in my office. I found him to be sincere, apologetic and friendly. I also found him to be the strongest Christian defender of Israel I have ever met, and that is why attempts to portray him as anything but a genuine friend to Jews—one for whom the Holocaust is the horror of horrors—is despicable.

“Hagee’s decision to sever all ties to McCain is noble: He knows he has become a liability to McCain, even after he has made amends to Catholics. What this proves is that Hagee, unlike Rev. Jeremiah Wright, is not an egocentric man. He is also not like the partisans at the Interfaith Alliance which today called on McCain to reject Hagee: when it was founded, the Interfaith Alliance received $25,000 in seed money from none other than the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

“Pastor Hagee can now move in the religious circles he has become accustomed to, and continue his ministry without distraction.”
