Once we decide on a place, we then can decide upon an approach.

Take a look there and tell me what you think. Re-edit is number 62 in US ranking. I have to say though, youtube is number 3. That could be a great place to kick this thing off. Then again, we need to really work on waking up the left. The right is figuring it out thank god. But the left is so far stuck up Obama's ass they can't even smell the shit they're shoveling right by their scrawny little chicken necks.

MSN is ranked 16 and they have a comments section. CNN and the Huff are 21 and 22. That's home base for the libby monsters. The belly of the beast as it were.

Wherever we decide, I think it should be somewhere deep in libby land.

The way we get around this K is by hitting on different posts at the same time and maybe playing a game of swith-a-roo at some point. Not everyone on reddit is a diehard wannabe lib but the majority there are loving themselves some Obama and everything demoho. We need to bring the fair back into balance, lol.

Hey Tara. It would be really great if you helped out. Mystery too. We all just need to decide where we will have the best results for what we are trying to do. I'm going to check lexa again and find some of the bigger sites where we can reach the most people. I've been on Huffington Post for a little while but I don't know if it would be possible to coordinate with everyone there the way they have it set up. It's definitely a crowd that needs a bucket of cold water to the face though. 

Rededit is an option. I noticed what Mystery pointed out too. They also have a warning against people trolling in groups (essentially what it says) maybe there's a way we can get around that?

So what have I missed out on? I checked out link James Untypeable posted to go to Reddit, what is that place a shrill community? I have never been there kind of creeped me out. Did you read the rules to the right? Except on Saturday, What, you can only have an opinion on that day? What kind of crap is that? Man, I am so happy to be here and not trying to survive in some place like that. ( Stepping down and turning the soap box over to someone else.)

What about reddit? There is a lot of activity over there in libby land. I set up an account there awhile back but never got around to really using it. Maybe it's time to change that ;)

Good points. Now if you could make your point in a short paragraph of 4-5 sentences that would be perfect for what we're going to be doing.

The requirement for all Federal and State Civil officers to give their solemn and binding Oath is established in Article VI, Section 1, Clause 4.

They are bound by their Oath to support the US Constitution, and should they abrogate their Oath by their acts or inaction, are subject to charges of impeachment and censure - political remedy for a political offense; plus removal from office and civil and criminal charges.

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”

Once given, the Oath is binding for life, unless renounced, refused, and abjured. It does not cease upon the occasions of leaving office or of discharge.

Solemn: “Legally binding, Common legal phrase indicating that an agreement has been consciously made, and certain actions are now either required or prohibited. The other requirement for an agreement or contract to be considered legally binding is consideration – both parties must knowingly understand what they are agreeing to”.

Bound: “Being under legal or moral obligation; to constitute the boundary or limit of; to set a limit to; confine”

Legally Binding: Common legal phrase. Lawful action, such as an agreement consciously agreed to by two or more entities, establishing lawful accountability. An illegal action, such as forcing, tricking, or coercing a person into an agreement, is not legally binding. Both parties knowingly understand what they are agreeing to is the other requirement to legally establish an agreement or contract.

Consideration: “Consideration in a contract is a bargained for exchange of acts or forbearance of an act.”

Require, Requirement, Required: Mandated under a law or by an authoritative entity. "To claim or ask for by right and authority; That which is required; a thing demanded or obligatory; something demanded or imposed as an obligation."

Contract: “An agreement between two or more parties creating obligations that are enforceable or otherwise recognizable at law.”

The Framers placed the requirement for “Oaths of Office” in the Constitution. These Oaths are to function as “checks” on the powers of the federal government and protect us from usurpations.

Each Branch of the federal government has “the check of the Oath” on the other two branches. The States, whose officials also take the Oath of Office, have the same check on all three branches of the federal government. And “We the People”, the “original fountain of all legitimate authority” (Federalist 22), have the Right to overrule violations of the Constitution by elected and appointed officials.

Webster’s 1828 Dictionary says for “Constitution”: “…In free states, the constitution is paramount to the statutes or laws enacted by the legislature, limiting and controlling its power; and in the United States, the legislature is created, and its powers designated, by the constitution.”
If any Branch fails to obey the “supreme Law”, then, in order to preserve the Rule of Law, the other Branches, or failing that, the States or the people, must overrule them”.

The Constitution of the United States of America IS the Supreme Law of this land, NOT those who serve within the federal government.

The first law statute of the United States of America, enacted in the first session of the First Congress on 1 June 1789, was Statute 1, Chapter 1: an act to regulate the time and manner of administering certain oaths, which established the oath required by civil and military officials to support the Constitution.

The wording of the Presidential Oath was established in the Constitution in Article II, Section 1, Clause 8.

‘Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”’

The Framers placed the presidential Oath of Office after the beginning clauses setting forth the organization of the executive department, and before the ending clauses that specify the contours of the President's assigned power. The President takes the oath after he assumes the office but before he executes it. The location and phrasing of the Oath of Office Clause strongly suggest that it is not empowering, but that it is limiting - the clause limits how the President's "executive power" is to be exercised.(cont)
