David Vitter just sent out this mass email that pissed me off!
"Mosque at Ground Zero - Slap in Face to Americans"
"James,
As many of you may know, there is a heated debate going on in New York City and across the country about a potential mosque being built right near the ground zero location in Manhattan by organizers with radical ties.
President Obama's support of building the mosque at Ground Zero is a slap in the face to the American people and I've demanded that President Obama reverse his position.
Charlie Melancon's silence on the issue is troubling to Louisiana families. But, we should not be surprised. Melancon endorsed President Obama, gave him an A grade and now is eerily quiet as Obama thumbs his nose at the American people on this important issue.
Americans will never forget the pain and anguish of September 11, 2001.
In my opinion, the prospect of a mosque right near this site of reverence and respect for lost loved ones from the attack shows a serious lack of sensitivity.In fact, the majority of the country is strongly opposed to building a mosque at the site of the most tragic terrorist attack on America.
I will continue to demmand President Obama to reverse his support on this, especially out of respect to those who lost loved ones on September 11. It's ridiculous that my opponent, Charlie Melancon, refuses to join in me in calling on Obama to reverse his support.
Sincerely,
David Vitter"
my response...
6 million Americans are Muslim; the Mosque is being built 200 yards away from Ground Zero; NeoCons, like you, are a Slap in The Face to Americans and The Founders! Stop blaming an entire race and religion of people as an excuse for this Police State we're now living under, and Unconstitutional Wars for Oil and Poppies!
As a citizen, taxpayer, and registered Libertarian Louisianan; I’m very proud to officially endorse Tony Gentile as the Libertarian Candidate for US Senate. For months now, Tony has been writing letters, going on radio talk shows (including mine), and campaigning as the rightful nominee for the Libertarian Party.
Last week, however, another candidate, someone I never heard of; at the last second also registered as a US Senatorial Candidate on the Libertarian ticket. Tony has worked hard for months earning the respect of fellow Libertarians and Independents in our great state. I ask you all to consider supporting, campaigning for, donating to, and also endorsing Tony Gentile for the Libertarian Nominee.
Tony is a great guy, down to Earth, easy to approach, and talk to. Any time I need to talk to Tony or ask him a question Tony always replies to me in a very timely manner. Like his bumper sticker says, Tony Gentile really “will Listen to you”.
Here’s what others have said about Tony:
"You are one of the most capable and qualified candidates and Louisiana and America needs Tony Gentile in Washington protecting our Constitution."
Kristofer Cowles
Voters with Change
"I think Gentile is the only rational person in the senate race. He is the only one who has reacted with logic and reason to The Spill. He is the only candidate who has positions grounded in fact, logic, reality and rationality on government size, taxes, border security and immigration as well as a host of other issues and problems facing Louisiana and the country as a whole."
Mr. Boyd W. Smith
"Tony is one of the most honorable political opponents I have ever faced. He is a man of the utmost integrity, and is more concerned about getting his message out to the voters and serving the people than playing partisan politics. I am proud to have him run for the Senate as a Libertarian."
Mr. T. Lee Horne, III
LPL Chairman
Here’s a link to an interview I conducted with Tony, back in March 2010, on my radio show:
Tony will be once again appearing on my show this Saturday Night during the 10 pm (Central) hour, and I invite you all to listen. For more info about my radio show you can log on to my website:
I hope that you will join me in helping Tony win the Libertarian Primary coming up on August 28th. If you wish to vote in this Primary you’ll need to be a Registered Libertarian or Independent by July 28th.
The Gulf Oilpocalypse has been going on for two months now, and all the Feds and BP have done is hindered and failed in at the least containing the spill. Governor Jindal tried to send out Ships to help in the cleanup efforts, but the Coast Guard and Feds forced them back to shore. People from all over the Gulf States and Louisiana are sick and tired of this intentional failure by our Over-Sized, Over-Taxing, Over-Imposing, and Completely Incompetent Federal Government and now is way past time for action.
On behalf of your constituents; I am asking both of you fellow Gentlemen of Louisiana to call for an Emergency Session of the State Legislature and demand that Governor Jindal take a stand and exercise States Rights under the 9th and 10th Amendments of the US Constitution. With every month, week, day, hour, and second that goes by the situation along our coast, in our wetlands, and throughout the entire Gulf continues to get worse and worse. We can no longer delay in waiting for DC or BP to save us; the time has come for the Gulf States to rise up, declare States Rights, roll up our sleeves, and take action.
Countless wild and sea life have been massacred, a lot of our brothers and sisters in the Gulf are going to lose their jobs, and the Volital Organic Compounds coming up, along with the Oil, are making a lot of people sick, and it’s only going to continue to deteriorate. BP and DC must be held responsible for their actions, and it’s now up to the Gulf States to do what needs to be done. I’ve included a letter that my friend, Rick Taylor; a Petroleum Geology wrote and has sent to Governor Jindal. I’m begging both of you to take action on this, and not allow the Feds and BP to get away with pushing the people of Louisiana and Gulf around anymore.
Sincerely,
James Burns

A guy breaks into your house, armed with a gun. You, however, don't own a firearm, but try to defend you and your family with a baseball bat. He shoots and kills you, the Police show up, arrests your family, meanwhile the guy who broke in your home and killed you gets treated as a Hero by the Local Media.
-James Burns (concerning the Freedom Flotilla Massacre)
The FACTS:
The Gaza Freedom Flotilla was attacked and boarded by the Israeli Military while they were still in International Waters.
The IDF opened fire on the Flotilla ships before they boarded them (according to an Israeli MP), and several people will killed by the Israeli's because they were defending themselves from being illegally boarded.
These Humanitarian Ships were inspected, and NO weapons were found on board before they embarked from Turkey for Gaza (a territory of Palestine), however, the Israeli Govt claims they found weapons on board.
The main ship in the Flotilla was the Mavi Marmara (a Turkish ship); which basically means that vessel IS Turkey, according to maritime law.
Turkey is a Member of NATO, and an Attack on One Nation of NATO is an Attack on ALL Nations of NATO.
All these ships were carrying was; food, medicine, clothing, and building materials to help the blockaded, besieged, and oppressed people of Gaza.
At first, I thought that Muhammad being Censored every time someone said "Muhammad" or was supposed to appear was part of the joke, but during the "I learned something..." part being almost completely Censored; I began having my doubts. Then it didn't re-air at 11 pm CST, and when I went to the SP website to re-watch it on there it said:
"Comedy Central placed Numerous Additional Audio Bleeps...We do not have Network Approval to Stream our original version of the show."
Okay, we South Park fans have been loyal to this series for 14 Seasons now; we have watched all the episodes, bought the SP Merch, and DVD's, and if you're going to censor "201" on your Network that's one thing, but I think you should allow Matt, Trey, the rest of the SP Staff who worked hard making this episode, and the loyal SP Fans to be able to watch the Original (Uncensored) version of "201" on the SP Website.
Thank You,
James Burns
PS: What ever happened to Freedom of Speech? I guess The Constitution and Bill of Rights are nothing more than a JOKE to Comedy Central.
