Bunkerville the new Yorktown

Was Bunkerville the new Yorktown? If it was then this is not over, “not over by a long shot”. The British army along with the Hessian mercenaries surrendered having been defeated on the battlefield, the Royal navy at Yorktown was also surrendered by the British commander. The British were busy fighting wars in other parts of the world. The British underestimated the resolve of the Colonials but could not “invest” any more resources in the war with the Colonies. The British Army was beaten, not Britain we again had a war with Britain in 1812. The War of 1812 was fought simply because the victory of the Revolutionary War and the British Army’s surrender did not settle all the issues causing that war. When Britain was defeated every matter was settled. When you engage in a war with a nation not only do you beat them on the battlefield, you must defeat both the military and the country. If fail to defeat the country you will surely fight them again, they will just get a new military. But more than that by not defeating the country you have actually aided them. This is especially true if the same leader is still in power, he saw how you defeated his military the first time. When you engage in war the second time he now has, if he is worth his “salt”, learned your tactics and will use them against you.

As the events in Bunkerville were unfolding I realized two things, first wrong place, second wrong time. The reason I came to this conclusion was this no intelligence, and I don’t mean no sense, on behalf of the Federals. They knew exactly what they were doing but they needed information. They were required to have strict “rules of engagement” and could only react outside of normal law enforcement duties if certain conditions were met. The Federals had a long time to prepare for this. Though they deployed large numbers of BLM rangers they had no intention of provoking. This fact is evident in the videos that were posted. Look at them carefully. One video I found especially interesting was the one with the BLM ranger that came up to the barricade to talk, he had a really nice camera mounted, recorded everything including sound. He was there to identify any suspected leaders, listen to the tone of the people and check for types of weapons that may have been visible. Dark glasses hid the eyes. Facial hair makes supposed professionals look like common thugs. He was not there just to talk if he had been, he would have said what he came to say and backed away. Another interesting moment in the video was the way the rangers left, one in particular just turned and starting walking with his back to the crowd. He either realized it or was told of his mistake and turned to face the crowd and backed away in a defense posture. He probably has an “ass chewing” coming his way. He by his own action admitted the crowd was no threat. This was only an intelligence gathering operation. They are not ready to fight yet.

Watching this unfold brought back memories of my days in the Army. On FTX’s(field training exercises)at company and company plus levels I got to play both parts defender and attacker. In the role of the defender I along with 25 other soldiers were the “advance party” we would secure the bivouac site, but we had the additional responsibility of being the Rapid Reaction Force. Being the defender is basically waiting to be attacked while planning and implementing ways to prevent and counter assaults, but it was fun. Being the attacker was even more fun, though the force was smaller. In the early stages it’s all about intelligence gathering. We would watch the “enemy” for hours or days, daylight and dark to establish their routine and give them time to get comfortable and complacent. I would lead or send out a small party to probe the perimeter of the defending company daylight(highly irregular but effective) and dark, the idea was to tire them out and keep them awake and on edge. But never more would go out than could be afforded to be lost. It takes more resources to defend than to attack. In pretty short order I was able to determine who was coming to repel the attack, how many would come and where they would come from. When I had all the intelligence needed a small probe would draw out the defenders and a full assault in another area would meet with little resistance the objective could then be accomplished. Being the attacker made me a much better defender. I learned much about logistics and most importantly to never to commit all my resources against a ploy to draw out the entire force. Concerning logistics never take more than you can carry in a hurry if you have to, but have more supplies close by if needed. You may be there a while if they are only trying to wear you down and tire you out. On conservation of resources never reveal your true strength, but stage them close by if needed they can respond to assist. The attacker will only continue the attack if the objective is with-in reach, the defender is in it for the long haul.

As to the information gathering operation that just concluded in Bunkerville, the BLM was only “probing”, they had time on their side. They had time to place sophisticated audio and video devices at strategic locations around the ranch, they may have even used drones to locate stragglers. Everyone who was there was photographed for identification. You also were video taped every time you stopped for gas or food. Did you know that most fueling stations and convenience stores have an agreement with local, county and state law enforcement agencies that allow the officer, deputy or trooper to watch live video of the inside and outside of the building. Most people today use credit or debit cards for every purchase, every purchase is traceable back to origination, including card holder and user. The card purchases and video recordings reveal where you came from and how long it took you to get there and how many came. You can bet that some sniveling government bureaucrat is in some little space at this very minute sorting through all this intelligence. They now have gathered all this intelligence, who you are, where you came from, your bank account number and your family and where you work and who you work for. These are pretty powerful tools to use against a person. But it will sit idly by until the next intelligence gathering operation takes place. Who knows it may even be the same place. They will be checking the faces to see who has come back and if any new faces are present where they came from and how long it took them to get there. And again someone will come to talk and he will be sporting a fancy camera doing the same thing the last one did. The government counts one the one thing they can be sure of if the people think they have won they will go back to their everyday lives, they simply wear down and tire out the resistance. Another interesting video with a man responding to a comment about hoping you have a gun with you was, his response was priceless, no they will fire the next shot heard around the world, we will fire the rest. He understands.

Stand tall and watch everything not just the frontal assault.

My home, my furniture, my clothing and my life

My home and my life are simple, my furniture and clothing are also quite simple.
First is my home.
Integrity provides the foundation. Truth provides the walls. The Flag provides the roof. Tranquility provides my windows. The precious blood of the patriots provide the paint inside and out. Honesty is my door. My door is locked at night for your safety not mine.

Second is the furniture in my home.
My bed is the U.S. Constitution. The Declaration of Independence provides my pillow. My blanket is The Bill of Rights. My night stand is provided by The Declaration of Arms. The Holy Bible, King James version, words written in red, provides my light and sits on the night stand, it also provides my map and compass. Diligence provides my table. Virtue provides the chairs. Hard work provides my sofa. Customs and courtesies provide the rest of the furniture.

Third is the clothing I wear.
Freedom provides my pants. Liberty provides my shirt. Self-Reliance provides my coat(I keep one with me year-round). Self-Determination provides my boots(I don’t wear shoes). Honor provides my hat(I always wear one). My under garments are Privacy.

Fourth is my life.
Duty to God and Country. Courage at all times. Accept responsibility. Everything in Moderation. Respect to those that deserve it, none to those that do not. Ever vigilant. Gallantry in actions. Thankful for what I have, and all that I have, jealous of no one. Loyal to my family and friends. Expect no one to do for me, what I should do for myself. Live within my means. Lead when I should, follow when I should, get the hell out-of-the-way when I should and know when to do each. Never tolerate the intolerable. Stand for what is right and just, reject what is not. Protect myself, my family and my home with a vengeance. I choose not to conduct commerce with those who would deny me my Constitutional rights. Accepted the Lord, Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, and pray for forgiveness when I come up short.

Yep, this is me clutching the Bible, the Constitution and my Gun.

The liberals on the left and right, you caused this, all of this and still you blame others for your failures

Here we go again. Shootings and knifings are making headlines across America. The outcry from the liberal left is deafening, they don’t understand why it is happening. Well you “dumb masses” it’s happening because you set it all in motion and even encourage the carnage because you continue to make “gun-free zones” and advertise them as such. A person hell-bent on destruction and death can find no better or easier target than a gun-free zone, unarmed people are an easy target. When was the last time there was a successful mass killing or for that matter a vicious attack perpetrated on a place where people were armed(outside of a military combat zone)? Why does the violence stop when someone with a gun shows up?

What will be your new plan to stop the violence being perpetrated on “gun-free” zones, schools in particular? It is already against the law to have any type of weapon on school property. Kids have been suspended and even expelled from school for chewing a pop-tart into the shape of a gun, or using their fingers as a simulated gun. The only people who are obeying the laws that are on the books now are the law-abiding citizens, the criminals are not and will not, no matter what laws you pass. The law-abiding citizens will obey the next law, the criminals will not, you will only provide the criminals with more and more victims.

Will you put metal detectors at every entrance to every gun-free building? How will you pay for them? Who will watch over all those metal detectors? How much will they have to be paid?. But will a metal detector work? Knives and other weapons can be fashioned from materials other than metal, for instance plexiglas will make a knife that no metal detector will “see”. That means that you will either have to install full body scanners or pat search every person entering a gun-free zone. America will become one big “grope fest”. I’m sure that you can find some pedophile or two needing a good paying government job, and they probably won’t call in sick too much, you know job satisfaction and all.

This is why I say that the liberals on the left and right caused all the problems in America and can somehow justify blaming others for their failures.

1. They react out of emotion, their own or they feed off of others, never out of rationale. They whistle past the graveyard, never understanding the law of unintended consequences. Their self-serving ideas of a utopian society leave people at the mercy of the criminal element.

2. Their cries of we have to do it for the children, we must protect the most vulnerable among us is the epitome of hypocrisy. This coming from a group of individuals that claim that they care so much for children. You make me want to “puke”. This is the same group of people who are all about abortion rights, yet they say we must protect the most vulnerable in our society. You do not shed a single tear for the millions that have been aborted, yet you have the nerve to stand up with the parents that have lived through the horror of having a child murdered or maimed and pretend to care shedding only false tears. This happens shortly after every tragedy that you have had a part in causing. Then even before the dead can be buried or while the injured are still in the hospital you and your ilk will be calling for action, any action, chanting we must prevent this from happening again your previous actions are what caused it to happen in the first place. Shame, Shame on you!!!

3. Your position on gun control. You are against law-abiding American citizens from owning personal firearms yet have armed security and some of you even own firearms. The Hollywood elite make millions in revenue from the violent movies that seem so prevalent in theatres today, yet these same people are some of the most vocal anti-gun idiots. The irony of using violence to gain popularity and maybe win an “Oscar” and then bashing the same industry for providing the tools used in your fantasy world. These are the same people who sell and glamorize sex and drugs on the big screen and then bitch about the crime and call for more police and protections. Hey idiot, the more protections you have the less freedoms you will enjoy. When someone commits a crime against you, you will do two things in this order. 1 Call someone with a gun. 2 Pray that they get their in time. Remember this dim-wit, when seconds count the police are only minutes away. You actually believe that only the police and military should have or use firearms. This proves you are stupid, the only reason the police obey the law is that Americans are obliged to resist the unlawful, by force if necessary.

4. Your position on so-called climate change. You say the earth is dying and man is the cause, yet you fly all over the world to attend a one or two-day summit on the climate everybody attending the conference takes their own jet. Haven’t you idiots ever heard of car-pooling? You say that we must make a smaller carbon foot print yet you drive big gas guzzling SUV’s, fly in big jets and live in large homes. This is just another example of do as I say, not as I do. You even say that the science is settled and the time for debate is over. You even make the claim that cow “farts” are releasing too much methane gas in the atmosphere, why don’t one of you geniuses figure out a way to harness all that gas. Some have even suggested destroying all the cattle in order to save the planet then we could become a vegetarian society. WTF do you think cows eat? They eat grass and vegetables that is why they fart. Maybe we should eat more of them to prevent some of the farting. Hell, I like beef anyway, its what’s for dinner. You must have had a brain “fart” when you thought of this dumb ass plan. What would happen to the ecology system with the absence of one entire species?

5. Your position on tolerance. You say that we must be tolerant of all, but you are intolerant of me and those like me. You force your views on everyone regardless of what they believe to be right or wrong, and scream bloody murder if their beliefs offend some new-found group you have evolved into supporting, until recently you opposed or at the very least offered no support to the very same group. A person, a company or a corporation that supports or at sometime in the past supported a position or a group that at one time you supported before you evolved must be either fired or forced to resign or boycotted.

6. Your position on choice. You say that it is all about choice, but you leave me no choice. The only way you are willing to give me a choice is if it is the same choice I make that agrees with the choice that you made for me. You will even permit the federal government to use one its many agencies to penalize me for you making a choice for me that I wanted no part of, so much for freedom of choice.

7. Your position on the death penalty. You were okay with BHO using drones to kill American terrorists overseas. What will you say when drones are deployed here in America to kill Americans? The government excuse for using drones will be that it was the safer alternative, but the subject of the missile strike or what ever weapon deployed will be denied his or her day in court. Yet you want terrorists captured overseas on a battlefield tried in a court of law, giving them their day in court and providing them with all the Constitutional protections. You say and even claim that this aspect of justice is cruel and may even be painful. You do not even consider the pain the victim endured. Every criminal in prison has at least one victim, even those on death row. I really don’t care if their death is uncomfortable, and if it hurts so freaking what.

8. Your willingness to accept lies as fact. We as a country are constantly lied to by BHO, his administration and Congress. The liberals repeat every talking point of the administration and never challenge anything and always accepting everything from BHO as the truth. Constantly repeating a lie will not make it the truth. The word lie is a powerful word, you can only tell a lie if you know the truth and willingly say different. I believe that BHO and his administration lie about everything at every turn, and lie so often I find it extremely difficult to trust any government agency or official about anything they say, under oath or otherwise. You accepted the lie that a Youtube video sparked the carnage at Benghazi. You believed the DOJ about the failed fast and furious operation. People died needlessly in these two lies and cover-ups, but you chose to believe the lies you were told the same as you accept and believe all the other lies BHO and his minions tell now and the ones they will tell down the road. Maybe if you would admit that we were all lied to you could finally admit in public that electing and the re-electing BHO was a big mistake, but you will not do that.

9. Your willingness to “toe” the party line. There is no way possible that all liberal democrats think the same way, surely some of you are capable of independent thought. You agree on everything and see every other opinion as wrong, that is until your thought process evolves and you find a new splinter group to support in their cause for recognition. Then you will all somehow agree on the new evolution. One day the people will see you for what you really are, empty suits and hot air.

10. Your position on pay inequality. Now after over 5 years you say that the pay inequality between men and women is an embarrassment, why did you wait so long to address the problem. The supposed problem did not just occur, it must have been hiding in the shadows to embarrassed to come out into the open , that is until lately. Could it be because an election is coming? Spend time addressing this problem, you send a soldier into combat with equipment furnished by the lowest bidder for little pay, but its okay that an elected senator or representative hundreds of thousands of dollars in pay and allowances per year. The soldier faces danger everyday and at every turn, the lazy assed senator or representative only faces the possibility of a paper cut or the chance of falling out of a chair because his lazy ass can’t even stay awake, figure this out and then discuss pay inequality.

11. Your position on war. During the last administration the anti-war protests were on all the news networks, but not once during the current administration. Have your views on wars changed, or would the word evolved be a better description? There were no protests during the illegal and unjust attack on Libya. You were ready to attack Syria over the alleged use of chemical weapons. You are ready to defend eastern Europe from supposed Russian aggression. You seem to me at least ready at the drop of a hat, or on magical words from BHO, ready to send our young men and women into harms way.

12. Your position on God and religion. You have done everything possible you can to remove God from every aspect of life, you have even tried to remove any symbols of God and Christianity from government buildings and especially from the schools. This was accomplished for what reason, to appease the Atheists. Why are you bending over backwards to recognize other religions? Maybe if you were to let or allow God and Christianity back in everyday and public life in America things might just turn around. Or is this what you are afraid of, if people turn to God and Prayer they will not need you so much. The true conservatives do not worship at the “altar” of big government, this is best done by left and right liberals. Maybe if you would quit evolving you might just find your self. Creation not evolution.

13. Your position on immigration. Coming to America illegally is not an act of bravery, it is a criminal act and should be punished as so, or is this another example of evolution. What is this “dreamers” crap and how did you ever come up with this “Foxtrot Uniform” idea? With the military going back to pre-WW2 levels how will you get the supposed 11 million illegals into the military to serve a term in exchange for permanent status? Let us not forget that both Russia and China are becoming very active and noticeable in Central and South America both of these countries as well as many more have a growing Muslim terrorist problem. If you don’t come to reason with the facts of global terrorism you are only inviting terrorists here from the southern border. Their terrorists could come here by way of the southern border that you refuse to secure and even tell the Border Patrol to run and seek shelter if someone hurls rocks at them. If you know there are 11 million illegals here send them home, oh that’s right you need their undying gratitude, translated into votes. If you want to come to America do it the right way damn it!!

14. Your treatment of our allies. You have done your best to separate us from our allies. You blame Israel for the breakdown in peace talks with the Palestinians, all Israel asks is to be recognized and to be left to live in peace. Again you think appeasement is the way to go, although history proves this is a foolhardy path once you start you can never stop except through all-out war. Why should we even ask or expect Israel to go back to its 1967 borders? This will only take away what little buffer they have against all that would destroy them. Your actions and inactions have only caused distrust from our allies and most of them will not remain by our side, when things get tough they will move away. Why do you think The Crimea left The Ukraine and realigned with Mother Russia, it was all about trust. They did not know hat to expect from Western Europe or America, at least they know what to expect from Russia. You may find that a new “Cold War” with Russia is in the “cards”. The countries of the former Soviet Union may gladly and voluntarily rejoin Russia because they all see how we have of late developed a habit of causing turmoil and strife where ever we go and leaving things unfinished, and The E.U. is no better.

15. Your treatment of our enemies. Do you not understand that al-Qaeda and the other radical Islamic nations want nothing but our total destruction? There is no reasoning with them and I can not understand how you could ever think that terrorism is founded in poverty. You treat our enemies like they are our allies. Easing the sanctions on Iran has only undone what little good the sanctions had accomplished in the first place. North Korea is still a hostile and belligerent enemy, yet they receive money from the world in efforts to pay them to behave and they never will. Your actions and inactions have only emboldened our enemies which are many and growing. China is in a special category they are a “trading partner” not an ally, and they are moving to spread their sphere of influence into Central and South America and our current administration doesn’t say or do anything to prevent or counter-maneuver them, again whistling past the graveyard. The Russians are visiting their good friends in Cuba these days along with their friends in Central and South America.

16. The way you confuse enemies with allies. History should have taught you by now that an enemy will never be a true and faithful ally. We supported Iraq in its war with Iran simply because we disliked Iran more than we disliked Iraq. We supported the Taliban in their war with the U.S.S.R. for the same reason. We ended up in battle with these two fine examples of temporary allies and most likely will again because we did not end it properly. There are many more examples even closer geographically than these. Does Cuba, Central and South America ring a bell. There have even been distinguished members of congress and the cabinet travel to far and distant lands to distinguish between the good and bad terrorists then come back and deliver speeches declaring that they know who are the good ones. There are no good terrorists. Picking the lesser of two evils has never worked, evil is evil.

17. Your constant denial of government abuses. You deny that they happened at all and when they are exposed you say not a smidgen of corruption existed when the IRS was targeting conservative groups or making compliance with their outrageous demands for information impossible. This would be funny if it was not sadly true one BHO minion investigating another. The NSA was and still is gathering vast amounts of information on the legitimate citizens of America. These are the major one that have been exposed, there is no telling what else is going on in the BHO administration. But true to your liberal lie, when more are exposed they too will be denied, DOJ will investigate and again not a smidgen of corruption will exist. BHO will say so and it will be.

18. The way you wage war on society. You declare war on everything and everyone but our enemies:
A. The war on women. I wonder who is warring on women. The liberals seem to be taking the fight straight to the women. They just now came to the conclusion that it is a “disgrace” that women make less money than men, the ones who claim to be leading the charge to equality are the same ones that have been holding women back. They are only just now realizing that without your vote the may lose the upcoming election. Women are mentioned as a group only when you are needed to help push some liberal agenda. After getting things stirred up and “buying” your vote and if they retain their office or gain offices in government you will once more be forgotten and placed on the “back burner” until you are once again needed. No matter the gender a person should be paid what they are worth not a penny more or less, based solely on the contribution and efforts they make towards to the success of the employer. This is exactly why I am opposed to any minimum wage hike. A minimum wage job was only intended to get a person in the door and develop a good work ethic, it was never meant to be a career.
B. The war on God and Christianity. There is no need to guess who is making war on God and Christianity, yep its the liberals again. In your attempts to remove any religious aspect from public life you have left yourselves with nothing to believe in but big government and you are attempting to sell this ill-fated plan to the “dumb masses”. You either fail to understand or just will not admit it in public that God did have a hand in creating this nation, it was not just dumb luck. God had a hand in it and his finger prints are everywhere and no matter how hard you try you will never scrub them off. He knew you before you were born. He also knew what you could be, but more importantly he knew what you would be if you turned your life to him, all you had to do was make a choice. God did not force Himself on you, he left that choice to you. How many millions have you aborted and thereby took away their choice? Snuffing out a life that could have been the person who had the perfect plan to save humanity from itself, or maybe the first aborted child was the one would find the cure for cancer or maybe even AIDS. You may have even doomed humanity by murdering children. When you and your ilk speak of choice you have no idea of the concept of freedom of choice when you have deprived so many of their choice.
C. The war on Christmas. I’m not talking about the commerce generated by retailers, which by the way seems to get an earlier start every year. Pretty soon the sales will start new years day, can’t start sooner because gifts have to be returned or exchanged the days after Christmas. What I am talking about are the usual religious symbols of Christmas, the manger scene in particular seems to be the most hated by the liberals. This may be because it represents a live birth, something the liberals despise. Another hated symbol is the Virgin Mary, probably hated because she chose life and gave birth. I will never understand why you can not accept that life begins at conception. I also do not understand the reason you refuse to accept the Immaculate Conception of our Savior Jesus Christ.
D. The war on poverty. Why must you continue this, the longest domestic war in American history. Your tactics failed long ago, in fact the tactics failed when the Romans tried them. At least the Romans recognized the failure, but not in time to prevent the fall of their empire. You will not admit this most prized non-accomplishment of the liberals of the 1960’s failed and will not work no matter how much money you throw down the well. Throwing good money after bad, what are you thinking nit-wit. The only casualty of this war has been the American family. Poverty is still alive and well and even flourishing.
E. Do us all a favor now, this will remove all doubt as to how stupid you really are, declare a war on war.

19. Your treatment of the Military. Balancing the budget on the backs of the military is nothing short of shameful. Then you send them to the far corners of the world with no clear objective and no strategy for winning the armed conflicts, sacrificing them so your special interest friends can turn a quick profit. You only visit the military bases are for a photo opportunity or when another tragic event happens there. You have no respect of the men and women in the Military or what they must go through everyday because your sorry ass choose not to serve. Out of sight out of mind

20. The way you treat freedom and liberty loving Americans. Without fail when the criminal element breaks yet another law, you react by passing an even tougher law expecting them to obey that one. Listen up moron, criminals break the law that’s what they do, you are not making it difficult on them, you are making it tough on the law-abiding citizens to remain with-in the law. Less than two dozen terrorists have totally changed life in America. The laws enacted since 9/11 have stripped the American citizens of freedoms and liberties won for them during the American Revolution and passed down through generations. Your outrageous and draconian laws will only force good law-abiding citizens to choose between being a victim or a criminal. When you force them to choose do not be surprised at the choice they make, after all you are supposed to be pro-choice.

Amen, General

Amen, General

How much longer do we have ? Part 7

The American Revolution had very few participants at the onset, some estimates range from 5% to 12% of the total population even supported the idea of Independence, including the Founding Fathers. Out of that total number only about 3% engaged in fighting the British. Even with that small number America gained Independence from Britain. General G. Washington standing on the bow of a row-boat crossing the cold and in some places frozen Delaware River, leading from the front. Revolutionary War soldiers tying rags around their feet in stead of proper shoes, or just in an attempt to hold worn out shoes together. Never having enough to eat, sleeping in the cold and with little or no pay. They were not fighting for money, they were fighting to throw of the yoke of tyranny, seeking Freedom and Liberty.

The 101st Airborne Division at Bastogne is another example of a few making a difference. They were surrounded by the Germans in December 1944, the German Commander demanded the surrender of the Division. General McAuliffe, acting Division Commander, famously responded “NUTS”. The men of the 101st used what they had and resisted numerous German assaults, they fought, they did not surrender. General Patton is credited with rescuing the 101st, no one in the 101st asked to be rescued. One of those brave soldiers of the 101st even stated “I felt sorry for the Germans, the poor bastards had us surrounded”. The 101st had no history, but had a rendezvous with history. I’ll say they did.

Our history is rich with stories like the 2 above, some are even the “stuff” legends are made of. But I have to wonder, if the circumstances in America now were the same as they were at the outbreak of the Revolutionary War, what percentage of the total population would even support Independence. Let alone, what percentage would fight for Independence. Do we have any national leaders today leading from the front? How many Americans today would endure any hardships, let alone the hardships that were endured by others for freedom and liberty? As to the 101st at Bastogne, what percentage would follow the example of the brave men of the 101st, and what percentage would just give up without a fight.

To make or change history a requisite set of circumstances needs to be present, after those circumstances come together it boils down to either time defining the person or the person defining the time.

Some times its just the right person at the right place at the right time. It can also be the wrong person at the wrong place at the wrong time. If you take the events in American history, past and present, the people or person involved and the circumstances this becomes crystal clear if you change the words right and wrong.

People are the answer and ironically they can also be the problem.

People become the problem for the following reasons. They have no set of core values or beliefs in which case they should never be entrusted with any thing, for they have no moral character or morals for that matter or their core values change to fit the circumstances and again they should not be entrusted with anything, again lacking in moral character and morals. These are the types of people who sit on the fence and wait to see which way the wind blows. They seek popularity over moral fiber. They do not believe in anything therefore believe in everything, you can not have it both ways, they end up believing in nothing. They do not stand for anything therefore they stand for nothing, but will fall for anything. This type of person will more than likely say that their position has evolved, in truth they are only seeking popularity from some small fringe group. They seek to be all things to all people.

People become the answer(solution)when they have a strong set of core values and beliefs that never change even for popularity, security or safety.

The answer to the question of how much longer do we have left is that it is up to the people with a strong set of core values and beliefs. As usual throughout American history it will be a small number with clear determination and a goal.

Now this was a Great General

Now this was a Great General

How much longer do we have? Part 6

The answer to the question may come down to simple mathematics, 53% can only support 100% for a short while, immigration reform will only add numbers to the 100% and will do nothing to increase the numbers in the 53%. The ratio of productive to non-productive only goes to illustrate and support my opinion that the politicians do not have the continued existence of America in their plans. A boat full of water can still remain at the surface, but it can not move or be moved, and will go completely under water and sink to the bottom when attacked by even the smallest of waves. To save our country we need to start pumping out the “water” now, we can not wait until we are level with the water’s surface. We should have starting “pumping” long ago. Even better we should have prevented any “water” from entering above what was needed for “ballast”, excess “water” is only “deadweight”. Riding high in a storm will capsize even the mightiest of vessels. We will go under at a 50/50 ratio, and no government plan will stop that. I may have spoken to soon about no government plan could stop that, the government could do as many families are doing now, just to manage to get through, during this magnificent economic recovery, have a yard sale. What could they possibly sell? The government could offer for sale the fleet of Presidential aircraft, no that wouldn’t work, if they were sold BHO and family couldn’t go on any more vacations, attend fund-raising events or just go golfing, and they could never let the elite do with-out. The Military is being cut to pre-WW2 levels, the government could sell the surplus equipment. We could offer small arms, ammunition, tanks, helicopters, jets, artillery pieces, uniforms, ships and all other un-needed weapons of destruction. But who or what countries could by the stuff? We could not invite Iran, they have no money, the economic sanctions imposed on them after the seizure of the U.S. embassy in Teheran have left them so economically devastated they couldn’t even continue their nuclear program. The Palestinian authority would be a good choice, at least we could get some of the money back we have given that terrorist basket case in the name of humanity. We could sell some to the Muslim Brotherhood they still have to beat Christians to death. I’m sure that North Korea, Syria, China, Russia and countless other small nations would “pony” up some cash for a few good pieces of surplus equipment, though most of the cash would be only the return the gifts of humanitarian aid. But the government must get in writing a stipulation that the weaponry will not be used against us or our friends(if there are any left). Everybody knows that government can be trusted and would never lie. Right! With all of that cash on hand the government could pay off the national debt, no that would never work. The government could further expand their social plans and give the “moochers and social parasites” a well deserved raise, this would work, the government could continue making loyalty payments. This cash would soon be exhausted, but not to worry the government could have another yard sale. The national archives, museums and our heritage could be sold to some foreign benefactor they alone should bring enough cash to pay-off the moochers, no they will never get enough. BHO and Congress have to feed the monster created out of fairness and equality, an again the money would squandered. The states that are resisting BHO and his minions could be offered up for sale, surly some foreign nation would love to get some prime real estate. Again the government would have cash, but it too would be squandered, forcing yet another yard sale and the cycle could continue until America was sold-out by a man with a vision of “hope and change”. Think about it, no nation on earth can beat us with force, but why should they, no need in wrecking the house you plan to buy.8660

If you don’t think the yard sale is possible consider the following.
The U.S.A. is 17 trillion dollars in debt and the corrupt politicians in Washington D.C. are still spending. The nations of the world will soon stop lending the U.S. money. The nations that the government has borrowed from will demand payment and they all know that it can not be repaid. The rest of the world will “dump” the dollar for some other currency. When, not if, this happens the government will have 2 options, both of which will end life in America as we know it.

The first option is this. There is an estimated 21 trillion dollars in retirement accounts across our land. I think that is a “little” high, but that’s what the “experts” say. I guess if you were to add the IRA’s(both paper and metals), employer funded retirement accounts, employer/employee funded retirement accounts, personal savings accounts and what is left in the social security trust fund you might arrive at a number that would be close to 21 trillion dollars. The government could simply seize all the personal wealth and use it to pay-off the national debt, leaving approximately 4 trillion in surplus(but as pointed out above, government would never do that, 21 trillion dollars would go along way in social reform). Enter the Government Retirement Accounts. The people(with common sense)would never stand for that, our streets would look like The Ukraine and Venezuela, but Americans won’t need to throw rocks. BHO will need a disaster natural or man-made to destroy the rest of the Constitution, and even then he would come-up short and he knows it. But, lets not forget what BHO said, We need a civilian force just as well-trained and as well armed as our military.

The second option is this. America could go to a cash-less society, after all almost everyone has a debit card, and almost all that still have a job are required to have direct deposit. BHO could just issue an executive order requiring that every American have a bank account with a debit card and must have direct deposit. No matter which bank you use they all would be government-owned and controlled, government would have all of the money. Possession of cash would be a crime, all transactions would be electronic. With the exception of a banking crisis the economic environment is the same now as it was just before the “great depression”, remove the cash and there can be no banking crisis. One more thing would be needed, government imposed spending limits(that would sound “goofy” coming from a government that knows no limits when it comes to spending)so the balance sheets stay in the black. Special government approval would be needed to determine the necessity of large dollar amount purchases. This would require yet another government agency to over see purchases above what the government deemed needed to support everyday life. The government would finally have ultimate control over our lives, simply by allowing or disallowing commerce at every level no more freedom of choice. You could no longer purchase an item that could possibly harm a child, be misused or in any way cause mental anguish. Everything must be government approved. Everything could be rationed to ensure that everyone has equal access. Everybody would be and therefore could say that “I work for the government”. There would be numbers in each persons account reflecting a line of credit the person had at their disposal, with government approval of course, but they would be just that, numbers, the same as we will become. Freedom would become like the stock market, only an illusion.

The few remaining countries that are willing to loan money to the U.S.A. are now able to black-mail our government. They demand that our government to make concessions. BHO has already started trading away national assets, and signing away parts of our national sovereignty to the U.N. As pointed out you can only sell or give away so much, eventually you will lose your identity. We may already have been sold. Could a one world government be in our future? Who would lead? Putin? BHO?

Mathematically we are existing as a nation on borrowed time. I never liked math, I can do it though, and even balance a check book. Wish the government could. History provides the answers if you know where to look.e229100d8bfa22d1e815b6b51c639b87

How much longer do we have? Part 5

The “State of the Union” is one big mess for the following reasons. We have a President with no real world experience only an agenda. We have a Congress full of self-serving ideologues. We have a Supreme Court being filled with activist judges. That about sums up the three branches of government. Not a one of the three is following much less upholding the Constitution.
Oh, don’t worry I would leave the Media or the “moochers and social parasites” out.
How did we get to this point?
We have a President that was elected with zero experience, but he offered “hope and change” and transparency in his administration. His background is that of a “community organizer”, college professor and a lackluster politician. The only “change” he had in mind was to transform America from the world “superpower” into a third world nation. His “hope” was that Congress, the “moochers and social parasites” would aid and assist him in his quest. Congress was more than willing to oblige and the “moochers and social parasites” have been constantly rewarded for their loyalty. His “hope and change” is being fulfilled though it may not be what was expected by some and is not enough for others. The transparency of his administration, though it is at least if not more secretive than previous administrations, it is becoming clear to more and more Americans. The whole thing is one big LIE! Having no real world experience has had the effect of blaming others for the failures of his own domestic and foreign policies, he has no concept of responsibility. If he is supposed to be the “leader of the free world” we are in deep trouble. A successful leader accepts both responsibility and blame. His style of and his practice of non-leadership is demonstrated by his acceptance of neither. The best example of this would be the sequester, it was his idea, and the outcome was his fault. But true to his government education he accepted neither. He found a way to shift the “blame’ to congress for not acting to prevent the mandatory cuts he proposed in the event a budget was not reached. Somehow it became the “responsibility” of congress to prevent his plan from taking effect. Yet he acts to prevent congress from stopping his plans, example Obamacare, lately referred to as “The Affordable Healthcare Act”, which he has arbitrarily changed himself 38 times, because it does not work. He will not let it be repealed and fixed, or admit that what we had before was better than this “POS” law that was rammed down the throat of America. He will simply keep offering exemptions(if they fit his personal agenda or helps some or all of his supporters and their special interests)and delaying portions of the act that can not possibly be met in any time frame. He has even found a way to better Clinton, we now have a new definition of what a delay is. It’s not a delay if you are in line, it is only a continuation of the previous delay. There are still no accurate numbers of how many people have signed up for Obamacare”, Medicare, Medicaid or paying customers. Out of the paying customers there is no information as to how many have actually paid the premiums. This part would be humorous if it wasn’t so sad, He considers himself the smartest person in the room, surrounds himself with advisors, more aptly called “yes people” and when confronted with an event, he says I found out the same time you did, on the news. He has constantly denied the greatness of America and her people willing to give or negotiate away our greatness and achievements. I still can’t understand why his approval rating is anything but “a big fat zero”. He is in my opinion a “radical leftist socialist ideologue”. He is also in my opinion a product of government education.
We have a congress that is failing in their duties they no longer represent the people they instead represent their political parties agendas, their own agendas and the agendas of the special interest groups. They see themselves as a perverted idea of a modern-day “robin hood” more aptly spelled “robbing hood”, stealing from everyone and giving to anyone that will assist them in their quest for re-election thereby increasing their power. In truth what they are stealing is the American dream of this and future generations. They use the various government departments as tools or as weapons as the need arises. The Department of Education in particular and government education in general has taken Prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance and most notably God out of the public school system. My theory as to why God was taken out of public school was that the government will not tolerate “competition”. The people have been and are still being “trained” to call on government in times of trial and hardship and government is more than willing to answer the call.
The Supreme Court as well as the lower courts are filled by each administration as vacancies occur, as is stipulated by the Constitution. Problem is each administration tries to “stack” the courts will justices or judges that will interpret the Constitution or the laws presented before them according to the “views” of the administration. This causes the “oddest” reaction from the press, the congress and the public. They all knew the how they would interpret based on their political views, the views of the nominating administration and the political views of those who confirmed them, and still act surprised at the ruling. If you have a radical left administration or a radical right administration, who did you think they would nominate or appoint. Again I don’t think this was the process the Founding Fathers intended.
The media are failing in their duties and responsibilities to inform America, and most importantly failing to be the “watchdog” over the government. That goes for all of them. The only reliable source of information is the internet and even that has to be sorted out to uncover the truth. The major news outlets that lean-to the left praise and tout BHO and the current administration no matter what. The major news outlets that lean-to the right do attempt to expose BHO and his administration for what they are, but will leave that arena for any breaking news story. The major news outlets are like humming birds, going from flower to flower trying to make news instead of reporting it.
The “moochers and social parasites” may well be the “straw that broke the camels back”, 53% of the working class of Americans “tote the freight” for 100% of America, while the other 47% that could be participating choose instead to live off the hard work and achievements of the tax paying few. The amount of assistance provided to the moochers and social parasites in the form of “food stamps”(EBT), WIC, free or reduced telephones, internet, electricity, housing and welfare are a constant drain on national treasure. There is little or no oversight on the “social programs” and most programs are redundant, with some of the mooching class receiving the same monies from more than one agency. There are always threats that “social security” may not be able to meet its obligations, but not once have I heard that “welfare” will not be able to meet their payments. The government, at all levels, have found willing accomplices in the moochers and social parasites to continue their “crimes against America” and the principles this nation were founded under. The government has taught the mooching class well. They have been taught to become totally dependent on government for their mere existence. They are taught that self-reliance, self-determination, personal responsibility and consequences of actions are all covered by a social program and they need not be inconvenienced in the least.(If the actions of a male and a female cause an un-intended pregnancy the government has approved social programs to aid in the consequences of a careless act, thus removing all responsibility.) This class of people is the reason that “Independence Day” is no longer celebrated, instead they celebrate the 4th of July, and oddly enough that is how it is now marketed and sold, which is probably just as well, the moochers have no idea what “Independence’ is. The moochers and social parasites have no right to celebrate “Independence Day” they need their own special day to celebrate “dependence day” because that is what they are, dependent, oh that’s right, they do celebrate every month when the government sends them their “loyalty checks”. The mooching class are no more than “bargaining chips” to the corrupt “political class” with each political party promising more than the other to gain their temporary loyalty. It seems that the mooching class, with the aid of the corrupt politicians, have found a way to vote themselves money from the national treasury. With each new attempt at reforming a failed policy from this and past administrations, or the attempt to reform a law, such as immigration, new disasters are the only product, and will only produce new moochers to steal more from America. This is a direct result of government creating a ‘benefit and entitlement” society. The only benefits and entitlements that come from being an American citizen or living in America is Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
The news of late is loaded with corrupt politicians being led away in handcuffs. Maybe terms limits for politicians should be implemented, I’m for all of them getting one more term, I’m thinking 20 to life. Maybe Alcatraz should be re-opened so the entire lot of them will have a view of the ocean, they will think they are still on a tax-payer funded vacation.

How much longer do we have? Part 4

The question still lingers. It seems that the politicians will spare no effort to hurry us to the end. The Congress and BHO have poked yet another hole in the hull of the ship known as The United States of America. The criminals in Washington D.C. are still trying to use the notion of Utopia, which is a “fairy tale” and does not and will not exist no matter how hard they try. If the politicians believe in Utopia they might as well saddle their your Unicorns. The insanity coming from Washington D.C. should be proof positive to America the talk out of both sides of their mouths. BHO stands up before America and the World and says on “climate change” the matter is settled and the time for debate is over, Congress pulls an all-night session trying to come up with a plan, no a scheme, to steal even more from America. Then BHO jumps on Air Force One and heads out to another fund-raiser, coming to Florida to welcome in spring break, hell he was just here during the supposed Ukrainian crisis. Moochele heads to china on a tax-payer funded vacation. WTF does he think those jets use for fuel “pixie dust”? Just another example of the “Elite” living a “lavish lifestyle” while the common man struggles daily to eek out a living. “Do as I say, not as I do” should be the motto of the current administration.

The new crisis they find useful in their endeavors to destroy America is the minimum wage. They are pushing forward with “The Fair Wage Act” They claim to be looking out for the “poor” and the “middle class”, hell people the “middle class” was destroyed years ago. The only people they are watching out for is themselves. Instead of worrying about “income inequality” they should be working to ensure “dollar equality”. There can never be “income equality”, not even in a communist country, but the dollar can be equal, no matter who holds it. If the “greedy rich” are the problem why don’t BHO and the Congress set the example and distribute their wealth among those that they claim to be looking out for and protecting. If this helps, think of America as a pyramid, tree equal sides point at the top. The top can only be supported by a broad base. If you turn it upside down with the point at the bottom creating a new base it is too small to support the top, the weight will force the whole thing down and all wind up on the bottom. I guess this could be what they are aiming for equal poverty, but even then as in any communist country the “ruling class” still has more. Has anyone ever seen a “dictator” living the same kind of life that was inflicted on the “people”? Also, Let me know if a poor man or woman has ever given anyone a job. In America anyone can make it to the top, but there is not room at the top for everyone. Raising the minimum wage will make no difference in anyone’s life except the criminals in Congress, as they will be able to steal more from you in taxes. Possibly driving up the unemployment rate, but they do not see that as a problem, some have even said that unemployment checks will improve the economy, because people will spend the money and return it to the economy. And just where does this money come from? These are the kinds of people who keep getting re-elected and they rely on government education to provide a never-ending supply of voters. As I have pointed out before the added cost of wages will be made up somehow, someway. Most certainly the costs of goods and services will go up to reclaim lost profits, quite likely hours will be cut and layoffs are even possible. Business owners are not in business to break even or lose money. That is a function of government, after all they spend and waste other people’s money(OPM). The gains you make in better wages will be lost when you spend it, you will remain poor and in the process drag what remains of the less poor(the former middle class)down with you. What happens to you, happens to us as well. The rich and the politicians will still be rich and they will remain so, no matter what happens to the poor or the less poor. You can not spend your way out of poverty. If you truly want more money in your paycheck you must get the greedy, grimy and corrupt paws of government out of you paycheck.

When all else fails BHO, Congress, The Media and all their Minions will play the “class warfare card”. They all know that the uneducated will fall for this every time without fail. You can rest assured that nothing in life is free. Smarter men than me have said this in the past “government is not the solution, government is the problem”. The money that the government bestows for assistance on you in the name of equality and fairness will eventually come with a cost, and they will at some time collect their “pound of flesh”. You have already sold yourself to government and they will count on you for continued support in the “march” to destroy America. The question for the “government slaves” is, how far will they go to insure that the agenda of continued social reform succeeds.

The answer to the question of how much longer do we have, my well depend on the politicians, and that will depend on whether they are willing to drop the designation of (D), (R) or (I). If the House of Representative can do that they will have stopped representing the political parties and their agendas, and begin representing the people as the Constitution that took an oath to uphold says they should. If the Senate can do that they too will have stopped supporting political parties and their agendas and return to ensuring that their respective states are equally represented in government again described in the Constitution, that they also took an oath to uphold. As to the president, his duties are quite simple and again are spelled out in the Constitution, like the previous two, he took an oath to uphold the Constitution. The President, House and Senate are all Constitutional offices and currently these offices, like those in local and state governments, are occupied by “politicians” not “Statesmen”. The politicians will never give up being identified with a political party for two reasons “money and power”. The vast sums of money that each party collects at the fund-raising events is staggering. The money is used to purchase air time for ads that never say anything of “substance”, and to send mailers out to registered voters of the particular political parties. This brings up the USPS, that loses money on a daily basis, being used as a personal delivery system for political ads. Proving once again that the government will “prop up” a failing system if it can be used to governments advantage. If the ad comes from a sitting member of congress the postage is tax-payer funded as a part of the “perks” of holding office. The power the politicians comes from being in the majority. That is only possible because America has become a “Democracy”, for if you are not in the “majority”, you most assuredly will be in the “minority”. Somehow we have let such a small and insignificant number of politicians, 535 “popularly” elected members of Congress, a President, a Vice-President also a popularity contest, and 9 Supreme Court Justices, which are nominated by the President, according to their views aligning with his, and are confirmed by the Senate, most times divided along party lines or even worse voting to confirm on the lesser of evils. We end up with a total of 546 people writing, passing, and upholding the laws of the land, but only if the laws suit their agenda or their particular political party affiliation. All three branches of government do nothing but support the agenda of political parties. This great nation has sunk to the new level of “a government of, by and for the political party”, when it should be and was supposed to be, “a government of, by and for the people”.

Lately, a number of “politicians”, who should be more aptly be called “statesmen” have been sent to Washington, D.C. and the State Capitals with a mission to “drain the swamp”. When they arrive they face an almost impossible task. They are met with resistance by the “establishment politicians” that have lost touch with America, and listening to or reading their statements and speeches, they have also lost touch with “reality”, some are quite possibly “senile”. As for “draining the swamp” it is damned difficult to remember you mission when you find yourself up to your eyeballs in alligators.

life in the minority

The future and the continued existence of The United States of America may well lie in our past. As stated in part 2 of this series 1913 was the year that America changed from a “Constitutional republic” into a “Democracy”. The Legislative Branch of our form of government was divided into two sections from the beginning for a reason. The House of Representatives were “elected” by popular vote to represent the People of the state they came from. The Senate was “sent” by the State to ensure that the State received equal representation in the government. The House represented the people’s interest and the Senate represented the states interests. The 17th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in April of 1913, changed all of that the Senators were elected by popular vote. Now they were freed from the duty of ensuring that the state they represented received equal representation, and set about ensuring that they represented their “political party” was represented “state be damned”. Every state was guaranteed a “Republican” form of government by the U.S. Constitution, but no, the Federal Government rammed its agenda down the throats of the citizens using politicians, the gullibility of the citizens and the trust of government. A “Constitutional Republic” was caught-up in political maneuvering that caused an explosion in the size and scope of government and out of the “rubble and ruin” came a “Democracy”. A “Democracy” gives the power to the “majority”, a “Constitutional Republic” gives the power to the “people”. Every administration since Woodrow Wilson has benefited from America becoming a “Democracy, some more than others. Another interesting thing happened in 1913, the 16th Amendment clarifying income taxes was ratified in February. The “income tax” amendment changed the way taxes were collected. The 16th Amendment gave us the Internal Revenue Service which has evolved into a government weapon that can be used against on group of citizens or used for another group of citizens.

A repeal of the 17th amendment would be a good beginning towards returning America to its original envisioned creation of a “Constitutional Republic”. This though, will never happen, the Senate has become accustomed to their power over the people. They will never willingly give that up, nor could they return to watching out for the interest of their states. This fact is easily seen through their actions, some even go to the extreme of assisting with the erection of barricades to prevent their state from enacting legislation that is in the best interest of the state. The only way to repeal this amendment would require a “time machine”, even that would not work because the people of that time honestly believed that they could trust government. Government can say “thank God” for government education, oh that’s right, government took God out of the schools.
Another thing that would help return America to a “Constitutional Republic” would be to institute a new tax system(notice I did not say income tax). An income tax punishes those that have jobs and therefore their employer furnishes a W-2 form and after deductions taxes are paid. The moochers and social parasites have no income and therefore pay no tax, nor do criminals(including politicians). I am not in favor of a “flat tax” either for the same aforementioned reasons. What I am in favor of is a consumption based tax system, The Fair Tax, this system would garner taxes from wage earners, moochers, social parasites and criminals(including politicians) at the same rate. This too would require the repeal of an amendment, the 16th amendment and a new amendment added, the politicians will never go for this either. This would also lessen the power the politicians have over the people, power is what the politicians crave. The government has one practice with money “easy come, easy go” as long as it does not involve their money. The government does not trust the people, this is a fact and is proven by the fact that the government steals their “portion”(pound of flesh) of our hard-earned money before “we the people” receive our paychecks. If the government does not trust the people, just why the hell should the people trust the government.

This is a good time to insert this. It is not only the Federal Government that uses taxes to punish those of us who have chased and caught the American dream. I live in Marion County, Florida, and our County Commission has decided to put on the ballot a referendum to raise property taxes by $1 per $1000 assessed value at the behest of the Marion County School Board. Problem is that every registered voter in the county gets a vote, not just the property owners. The tax increase is supposed to go to the schools. What did you do with the money that you have already taken and wasted that you got from us in the form of property taxes? And while on the subject if the value of my place keeps dropping, why do my taxes keep going up. When will you finally take your pound of flesh? You also might get your scale re-calibrated, I’m getting a mite thin here and can’t afford many more pounds removed. They dropped the idea of a sales tax increase, that failed before. We are Taxed Enough Already. This is another example of government relying on government education. The renters will see this as an opportunity to get the tax burden off of their back and shove it to the home owners and business. They are either “stupid or ignorant”. If they vote for it and it passes the cost will only be passed along in the higher costs for goods and services. So the property owners get a double dose of “government medicine” higher property taxes and higher costs for goods and services. BOHICA property owners. If the renters vote for the property tax increase their land lord will only pass that along to them in the form of rent increases. They will get their second dose when it comes time to sign a new rental contract, and the will wonder why their rent increased. The only people who will not see the effects of the increase are the ones occupying section 8 housing. BOHICA taxpayers. The renters do not and can not see this coming thanks to the “ruling class” telling them how much they are discriminated against and the government education system failing in their task of providing a proper education. But seeing as how “government education” was designed to only educate to the level of “loyal and obedient citizens”. They have succeeded marvelously in that aspect and people still trust and obey without question. Again, I did not get that memo.

The difference between stupid and ignorant is that “stupid” lasts forever and “ignorance” can be overcome with education. I don’t mean with government education, that is how we got in this mess to begin with. Our best chance is for the stupid to stay home on election day watching some reality show, this goes for all elections local, state and federal. Our most important task is to educate the ignorant and save our nation.

The answer to the question of how much longer do we have, may come down to the people who know the truth about government educating those willing to learn and accept the truth about the corruption in all levels of government. We can not help those who are blindly obedient to the government. We must choose our battles.

To be continued.

How much longer do we have? Part 2

BHO is becoming desperate as his failures become clear to America and the world, even though the liberal left and the major media outlets will never admit it, at least not publicly. Obamacare is so flawed that he is forced to change the law, arbitrarily and almost daily, he was offered a way out, but refused, it could have been re-written or repealed, but even more importantly it should have been read. If Congress had read it before passage instead of passing it to find out what is in it, the hideous thing would have never become law. Obamacare is so flawed that his name is not tied to it any longer by the liberal left and the major media outlets. His foreign policy, if he ever had one, has caused him and unfortunately America much embarrassment around the world. The world sees him as weak, spineless, a joker and gutless, unfortunately since he is the President the world has the same view of the American citizens. The sanctions imposed on Russia and the Russians that the administration claims to have been responsible for the Crimean annexation, as I have said previously are meaningless. New and more harsh sanctions are planned if The Ukraine is further violated will be just as meaningless. America is still a formidable opponent and even a hardline Soviet like Putin is not prepared to engage in open warfare with her, not because of BHO, but because of the men and women in the U.S. Military. America still maintains a strong professional Military for now.

Desperation leads to panic. Panic leads to poor decision-making. History provides numerous examples of leaders who panicked when desperate and consequently made wrong decisions, mostly because the were in over their heads to start with. BHO has been in over his head from the beginning, and he knew it. He made no effort to surround himself with the best minds with much-needed experience, he instead chose to surround himself with ideologues, some of which are radical, and like himself do not believe that America and its people are truly exceptional.
This brings us once again to the question of, how much longer do we have. Before that can be answered we must examine how we ever got to this point both domestically and abroad. BHO charged down the path of “Global Humiliation” beginning with the world apology tour and can not seem to slow down. Unfortunately the how, is changing at the same pace as his head long charge. He has refused to accept his role as the “Leader of the free world” and the responsibilities that come with the title of President of The United States of America. BHO has set about a course to divide America. BHO took on The Office of The President willingly, there was only one United States of America when he took office, contrary to what the “liberal left” including the major media outlets have been spouting. The president, the liberal left and the major media outlets seem to always promote a level playing field, income equality, benefits and entitlements.

The only “Utopian” place all this can be achieved is in a “commune”, but even that is less than “ideal”, there are no laws or protections. Sooner or later, even the “commune” will need to join with another “commune” either for economic, social or security reasons, the last is to remove lawlessness from the equation. (The words democratic, republican, democracy and republic have no political party affiliation in the following.) This is when the real problems begin, they will need to establish some form of “government”. The supposed experts would suggest a “democracy” would fit the bill as the best form of government and would best suit the circumstances, nothing could be farther from the truth. In a “democracy” there is no equality in representation, the largest group has the most representation and will address the issues that they feel are the most important or that will affect them the most. This form of government represents the “majority” and not the “minority”. The Founding Fathers did not set about creating a “Democracy” and this was intentional for the aforementioned reasons they also recognized that government was a “necessary evil”. The Founding Fathers set about creating a “Constitutional Republic” to prevent abuses of power and to insure equal representation for the several states. To further insure prevention government abuses an election system is spelled out in the Constitution. The “Constitutional Republic” that was once The United States began to sink to the level of a “Democracy” with the ratification of the 17th amendment in 1913, and each administration since has kept the “bilge” pumps turned off. The sinking of the United States Of America has continued to this day, and has only remained afloat because of the people and not the government. With the continued “majority” rule and a President who is operating outside his Constitutional powers, and a Congress that is unwilling to stop him, the continued effects of constant flooding may soon tip the scales and sink this once great nation.
It is true that I am critical of the President, and Congress and that is only because they at present occupy the driver’s Seat” of an out of control vehicle and will not disengage the cruise control. They have been careening down a road to national destruction, blowing through many yield and even some stop signs. Sooner or later an obstacle will block your path causing you to either stop or crash, or you may reach a dead-end. I am critical of the major media outlets for carrying the water for failed policies and for letting America down in the process. BHO and his refusal to accept the free world leader role created a vacuum and had the unintended consequence of Putin stepping up. With the absence of BHO from the “world” scene many other leaders like Putin will surely step-up to fill the “void”.

The question of, how much longer do we have left could be reduced to simple mathematics. From 1787 until 1913 is 126 years, from 1913 until 2014 is 101 years, 126 years minus 101 years equals 25 years.

How much longer do we have? Part 1

As “Dear Leader” BHO continues his fast paced journey towards his vision of devastation and economic ruin of America, one has to wonder what he and his legions of followers have in mind. That brings us to the question of, how much longer do we have. The following may provide some insight as to what BHO and his minions have in mind.
BHO has gone around the U.S. Constitution, doing as he pleases by arbitrarily changing laws as written. He has also devastated our Military by budget cuts and purging top military leaders. He has issued orders to the Military that place vast numbers of capital equipment in one location providing any enemy with the opportunity to devastate much of our fighting force. Much of our capital equipment is used as a deterrent to attack yet has been gathered for easy destruction. He has so often lied to or threatened our allies that none of them trust us. As corrupt as the Government of Afghanistan is, it is still better to have them on our side, but BHO has set the example of abandonment as demonstrated by Iraq. BHO was in such a hurry to leave Iraq a vacuum was left behind that pulled in the terrorists and Iraq has since been left in turmoil. BHO even told the terrorists and malcontents when it would be safe for their return and return they did. Since there is little to no news about Iraq people assume that the country is stable and a strong friend, nothing could be farther from the truth. BHO and his minions can not even get a Status Of Forces Agreement(SOFA)negotiated with the Afghan Government. The Afghan Government recognizes that BHO can not be trusted and would rather cut a deal with the Taliban than allow Americans to remain. Many American lives and much national treasure has been spent, no wasted, on these two countries, and nothing positive came of the sacrifice and waste. After the American Military departure from Afghanistan, BHO has again told the enemy when we will completely withdraw, there will also be little if any news about Afghanistan. Americans will again believe all is well and right. Both of these countries could have been shining examples, but no, the failed policies of BHO and his minions have left one as a terrorist training ground and the other with an uncertain future, but most likely a resurgence of the Taliban will be their fate. BHO and his administration has to say the least has limited foreign policy experience and every move or action they have taken has caused only further destabilization, turmoil and upheavals in the Middle-East. al-Qaeda and their splinter-groups have benefited greatly from the foreign policy blunders of this and previous administrations the biggest gains they have made have not been by their successes, but by our failures. We have once again won all the battles and still managed to lose the war. Now Russia is in place to be the next to benefit from our failures. Who comes next? China? North Korea? Cuba? Iran? Syria? I will go with Iran being the next to benefit. The only people in the past five plus years that can count on us are the terrorists themselves, our friends and allies can not trust us. Israel may become the one who suffers the most from BHO and his perverted ideas and his failed foreign policy or will it be the lack of one. Then who suffers? South Korea? Taiwan? Japan? America?
The mere fact that BHO has threatened Russia is laughable. Putin knows from experience that dealing with BHO and the state department is no challenge. He has already beaten BHO in Syria. He will beat BHO in The Crimea as well and quite possibly in The Ukraine. Russia has had over twenty years to prepare for this, America has had the same amount of time for prevention. The time wasted would have been a good time to remember “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”. The warnings were sounded, but no one listened or heeded the warnings. Putin and the Russians sat idly by, at least appearing to de idle, they were waiting for the “perfect storm”. The U.S.A. also sat idly by, thinking that the world was at last peaceful with the demise of the U.S.S.R. With peace in the world America began the process of even greater social reforms, but social programs require money, a lot of money. America began borrowing money, a lot of money from our former enemies and countries that were considered at best unstable allies and even ourselves(The Federal Reserve). The “perfect storm” they waited for was none other than BHO, the media outlets, the liberal left, and the staggering national debt. When all of these are combined they provide Russia with their “perfect storm” and patience paid off. Russia and the rest of the world has watched as the media outlets have never, in earnest criticized BHO on any of his failures even if they resulted in further destabilization abroad or at home. The media outlets are still in love with BHO. The world has also watched as BHO continues to destroy the U.S. Constitution without even a whimper from the media or the establishment politicians of either party as they only fight to save their self-serving hides. Russia roared in with the storm, BHO went on vacation and got in a little golf, but he at least claims to have made a few phone calls. I wonder if the NSA was listening, we need confirmation.
I personally find that BHO speaking out of both sides of his mouth a bit confusing. He demands that Putin and Russia respect the borders of The Ukraine, yet we have laws for the protection of our own borders he does not and will not enforce them. He has not once demanded that Mexico or any other nation respect our borders. He declared the vote by the people of The Crimea was unconstitutional, yet he is constantly violating the U.S. Constitution. He along with the U.N. instituted and funded a program of voter ID cards for an African country, yet voter ID here in America is seen as a hindrance to voting and may even violate civil rights. As to the matter of threatening to impose sanctions that is also laughable. How can you impose financial sanctions against a country you must give money to if you need a ride to the ISS. You must have forgotten that you destroyed our space program and now America must rely on the Russian taxi service. But the media will praise and support you. You must have also forgotten about the no-bid contract awarded to Russia to provide equipment to the Afghani Army due to their lack of education and the complexity in operating U.S. supplied equipment. How much was that contract and did it include spare parts? The imposition of sanctions is nothing more than political maneuvering or as some would say, smoke and mirrors, regardless it is meaningless.
Maybe you thought Putin would “tuck his tail and run” if you spoke, Putin is not the liberal media and does not get a “tingle up his leg” at the mention of your name, nor will he respond to idle and meaningless threats. Putin is a “Soviet” much like the ones that I spent the early part of my Military career training to fight. He like other communist leaders understand force and power. Seventh Corps remained in Europe for a reason. Eight Army remained in Asia for a reason. The “Cold War” did not end with the Berlin Wall being torn down, the lines were simply moved.
You must have, at sometime, issued an Executive Order demanding that the media, congress and the numb-minded citizens obey and follow you without question. I did not get that Memo.
The answer to the question of how much longer do we have, is that it is up to the people, but only if the government allows the voice and the will of the people to be heard.
