Constitutionality of Forced Health Insurance Doesn’t Exist
Posted by Jacob Cohen Donnelly on November 10, 2009 · 2 Comments
Nancy Pelosi is wrong when she says it is constitutional to force health insurance. The Commerce Clause does not make it acceptable for Congress to force Americans to buy health insurance.

The New England Patriot
Posted by Sean J. Palmer on August 18, 2009 · 1 Comment
William Kostric, a New Hampshire resident upset over the notions of increased taxation and government control due to President Obama’s plans for healthcare reform, set a precedent for liberty last week by openly carrying his Smith and Wesson 9mm pistol at a protest outside a Portsmouth, NH venue where the President was set to speak. [...]

The Near Loss of Posse Comitatus
Posted by Jacob Cohen Donnelly on July 31, 2009 · 20 Comments
The idea of tanks rolling down my streets and armed soldiers knocking on my door trying to ask me questions about possible terrorist cells really leaves a sour feeling in my stomach. More so, the idea that our previous President had considered sending the military in to handle police action at the firm suggestion of [...]

Declare Yourself Independent!
Posted by Sean J. Palmer on July 4, 2009 · 4 Comments
I had a very harrowing experience last night while writing a draft for today’s article. The article was meant to be, just in time for Independence Day, a personal declaration of independence from the mindset of expansive government that has slowly but surely trampled the rights of American patriots since the Civil War and beyond. [...]
Gay Marriage Will Destroy the Economy According to RNC Chief Steele
Posted by Jacob Cohen Donnelly on May 18, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Picking Michael Steele as the chief of the GOP made sense when it first happened. A Black man had just been elected President and the GOP needed to do something to ensure that they appeared up to date. So, they picked Michael Steele, a Catholic Black man from Maryland. Since being picked, he’s said some [...]

Political Apathy Needs to Stop
Posted by Jacob Cohen Donnelly on May 15, 2009 · 3 Comments
When people come to WeThePeoplePolitics.com, they know two things: first, they’re going to get content to read and two, the writers are far from politically apathetic. We care about politics and we care about what’s going on in DC. It’s because of that caring that we write what we write. However, the writers of this [...]

Is the Volunteer Bill a Predecessor to Conscription
Posted by Jacob Cohen Donnelly on April 24, 2009 · Leave a Comment
One of the best parts of being in America is that I have the choice on what I want to do. I can opt to serve in the military if I want to; however, I don’t have to if I don’t feel that it is for me. I have my own motives that would entice [...]

Doctors and Psychologists Should Do No Harm

According to an oath approved by the American Medical Association, “you will exercise your art solely for the cure of your patients, and will give no drug, perform no operation, for a criminal purpose, even if solicited, far less suggest it.” One would assume that with that direct quote coming from an oath approved by [...]

Thou Shalt Keep Thy Religion To Thyself
Posted by Sean J. Palmer on March 11, 2009 · 2 Comments
In 1802, Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter to a group of Baptists in Danbury, Connecticut, saying “…I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should ‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between [...]

All Those Little Liberties? Yeah, They’re Still Mine, President Bush
Posted by Jacob Cohen Donnelly on March 4, 2009 · 2 Comments
I thought when President Obama was elected, we would finally be able to rid ourselves of President Bush. He would go off into hiding and President Obama could make his attempts at fixing the economy, ending the two wars we’re in, and creating all the programs he wanted. We had our eight years of President [...]
