    Sexual Pleasure - BIG GOVERNMENT Style


    It's become a daily barf session seeing BIG GOVERNMENT's increasing stronghold on Americans - from our wallets to what we wear to sex toys. Yep - sex toys.

    The BIG GOVERNMENT of the state of Alabama (Red, Republican) dictated a double whammy, first making it illegal for a business to sell a sex toy and second, making it illegal for a private citizen to purchase a sex toy.

    Sherri Williams, owner of Pleasures stores in Huntsville and Decatur, said she was disappointed, but plans to sue again on First Amendment free speech grounds:
    My motto has been they are going to have to pry this vibrator from my cold, dead hand. I refuse to give up
    Business owners in Alabama had asked the U.S. Supreme Court to throw out the law as an unconstitutional intrusion into the privacy of the bedroom, but the justices made the choice not to hear the case. In other words, BIG GOVERNMENT at the federal level agreed with BIG GOVERNMENT at the state level that BIG GOVERNMENT has the authority to control what people buy, what people sell, and what can be used by the citizenry in their private lives.

    The Supreme Court said BIG GOVERNMENT states can legislate morality. I consulted with that rarely used document - the U.S. Constitution. I did word searches and close reads. Nowhere did I find the Constitution giving BIG GOVERNMENT states (or any government level) authority to define and/or legislate morality. If the people of a state voted for such a thing then it might fly, but they didn't.

    I have not heard any of the pompous candidates, Republican or Democrat, comment on such intrusive dictates of BIG GOVERNMENT - probably because they all drool at helping to make BIG GOVERNMENT even more intrusive.

    All except one - and that's why I've now posted the top-right banner for my support of Ron Paul. He seems to be the only one with a clue of what is happening to the American people (along with millions of citizens that are joining him - as I have).

    Your New Pharmacist - Uncle Sam


    In the continued pursuit of bigger, more controlling, and oppressive government, Senator Kennedy, along with a couple of big government Republicans, have proposed legislation that will put the Federal government in control of your prescriptions. It will take away individual choices - even deny your access to critical medications!

    If you don't already know the simple equation:
    Less choices = Less freedom
    More choices = Greater freedom
    I don't mean the current doctor-required prescription to obtain a drug, but I mean the millions of people that depend on doctors and pharmacists that mixing certain drugs for people that have conditions where no over-the-counter drug exists. This legislation, once introduced and passed, will stop that practice by the people that know best - and replace it with one where the FDA will decide if you need a certain drug. Your personal medical needs - under the control of big government bureaucracy.

    Like many BIG GOVERNMENT attempts to become bigger this proposed legislation, the Safe Drug Compounding Act of 2007, is presented as something in the interest of public safety. Hmmm - we seem to be hearing that phrased used more and more - from making new laws to control the people to raising taxes - "public safety". The people of the USA must see the reality of BIG GOVERNMENT - look beyond the marketing pitch - that is for our own good. Whether Republican or Democrat the promoters of BIG GOVERNMENT must be voted out of office in favor of whoever would support smaller government.

    You can do an internet search for ways to contact your Senator, or use this link from the HealthFreedom.com site. Be direct, be firm - you don't want BIG GOVERNMENT to come between you and your doctor.
