The government assault on the citizens continues, not in some foreign land but right here in America

Posted on by

The current administration in Washington, D.C. is even more out of control today than yesterday. President Obama has added yet another tool to his arsenal of tyranny, despotism and oppression to use against all who oppose his usurpation of power. The F.C.C. is only the latest tool that the “tool” that occupies the White House will use to control the Media that is not already in blind support and allegiance to him. The F.C.C. will not just be observing media operations they will report back to some other “tool” working for the administration. “Observing” is just another word for “monitoring”, which will lead to censoring of any content which the “regime” deems inappropriate, inflammatory or objectionable.
The Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to prevent just the same kind of regime abuses that we see today. The separation of powers was done so as to prevent any one of the three branches of government from acting in an arbitrary manner. Dear Leader has trampled the Constitution without any Congressional opposition, and has further attacked the Bill of Rights, again, without Congressional opposition.
The Fourth Amendment was cancelled out by the N.S.A, we are no longer secure in our persons, houses, papers or effects. The “Regime” either has probable cause that every American is a threat and has an outstanding warrant one each of us or some activist Judge is sitting at the bench 24/7 listening to some “tool” of the regime explain his reasons and oath for probable cause to issue a warrant.
The First Amendment will now be cancelled out by The F.C.C. We have already lost the right to assemble, now we to obtain a permit from some government “tool”. The freedom of speech is already limited if it is interpreted by some government “tool” to be hate speech or inflammatory. If we speak out against the President or his failed policies or address a grievance we are called “racist”. Now the Press will be monitored for content of programming, editorials and opinions. This can only lead to censorship.
The Second Amendment is under constant attack
The Ninth and Tenth Amendments have already been cancelled by Activist Judges and the Department of Justice.
The U.S. Constitution is constantly hated and therefore ignored by the “Regime” due to the fact that it limits his powers and empowers the People, and he will have none of that.
As for Executive Orders, see the attached picture of one that was issued at the rate of one a day for six days then tell me what the government has created.

Where do we go from here?

America as a nation had a start as a refuge for the oppressed religious and otherwise. We had a brutal beginning in a land far and away from our from what our ancestors were accustomed. Independence and Liberty were first experienced on this Continent, although we were Colonies of the European Continent. Time passed, we became 13 colonies of Great Britain due to wars between European Countries and their giving up of Colonies on the North American continent to the victors. Some of the wars were referred to as “contests” spilled over into North America. Our ancestors even helped Great Britain win some of these “contests”. Our ancestors gained valuable experience during these “contests” that would be of great use in the coming years. The continued abuses of the King of England finally drove the Colonists to the point of taking up arms against the Throne.
The Colonies and The Colonials had matured and were of sufficient strength to choose their own course and destiny. The course they choose was to live in as a Free People, the common thought was that it is better to “DIE as a FREE MAN, than to LIVE as a SLAVE of the THRONE. As a nation we didn’t choose a war with England, it was forced upon the good and decent citizens of the Colonies. Our Forefathers won that “contest” with a heavy loss of Life and Treasure. We had sufficiently matured and with Great and Divine guidance, our Forefathers drafted perhaps the finest document any people could author, The Constitution of the United States. To get a Constitution that could be ratified by all 13 Colonies required negotiations(give and take)from all sides, but even the most heinous and contrary to the principles of Freedom and Liberty, slavery had a final date, and was spelled out in the Constitution.
As more territories gained statehood and were admitted into the “union”, their admission was based on whether or not they would be “slave” states. The Congress at the time would decide for the States if they were “slave or free”, and were admitted on that one premise. The Territories had little choice in the matter and would only gain Statehood if they didn’t upset the balance. The Congress wanted things to remain equally “divided”, so that no one view had a monopoly on the slavery question. This would eventually set the stage for the greatest calamity for America. But remember that the House of Representatives was based on population size not land size, the northern states had more representatives than the lesser populated south. The Senate has since the beginning has been 2 from every state no matter the population and was originally sent by the state to the nation’s capital to ensure the state they were from had an equal voice in government and the policies each administration would inflict on the population of their state. If they were equally divided the Vice President would vote and that would only be according to the administrations views on the subject at hand, and thus decide.
The stage set for the “Civil War” was set long before President Lincoln was elected, his election only set the wheels in motion. The original cause was seen Federal Government usurpation and arbitrary uses and abuses of power. The people of South Carolina were the first to act, by seceding from the “union” and demanding that all Federal Troops immediately leave their Sovereign State. The Federals refused, hostilities broke out and many southern states seceded from the “union”. The new government of the South drafted and ratified their own Constitution and elected their own President and Congress. The Constitution of the Confederate States of America is almost a mirror reflection of the Constitution of the United States. There is no provision in the U.S. Constitution for any state to withdraw from the “union” only to enter into it. This war in American history has been called by many names, “The Civil War”, “The Un-Civil War”, “The War Between the States” and The War of Northern Aggression”, but in reality it was a war between 2 countries, but for a better description I choose “The War of Northern Aggression. The U.S.A. never officially recognized the C.S.A., if it had it would it would have become a war fought over land as the north didn’t have the land or people to work it to feed themselves. The Confederate States had no intention of warring with The United States, they only wanted to throw of the “yoke” of what was perceived as a tyrannical Federal Government and raised an Army to do just that. President Lincoln was less about ending slavery and more about “preserving the Union at any cost”. To illustrate this point, if a nation were to be a warring nation it would need a weapons of war manufacturing infrastructure and a pre-arranged prisoner of war containment system. Neither of which the South had, had to rely on what few could be manufactured by private companies and what they were already in possession of or what they seized. Being unprepared for war Andersonville was hastily put up, and true enough it was despicable, the POW camps in the north were no better, but the winner doesn’t punish themselves. The North had the vast majority of the Arsenals(this remains true today)and were much better prepared to go to war, but were lacking good military leaders at the onset, as most had returned to their homes in the South. Up until the Federals attacks on and blockades of the South the only engagements were the Southern States trying to drive the Federal troops from their sovereign soil, often without casualties. The fact that Lincoln was less about the abolition of slavery and more about the preservation of the “union” can be illustrated by this, the Army of the North was called The Union Army and not the Abolishment Army. The proof that the War of Northern Aggression was less about slavery and more about states rights is the Army of the South was called The Confederate Army and not the Slavery Army.
A Revolution is best described as an effort to throw off the Tyrannical Yoke of an Arbitrary Ruler and will most often succeed due to the convictions of the people to make a better life for themselves and future generations. A revolution is usually between one Nation and some other place it has claimed as a protectorate. It is also helpful if the two opposing forces are separated by an ocean, thereby making logistics an insurmountable obstacle, as was the case of England during the Revolutionary war.
A Rebellion is best described as an effort to throw off the tyrannical yoke of an Arbitrary Ruler or Government and will most often fail due to the fact a rebellion originates in the same oppressive country. It also helps that the Government has prearranged and staged weapons of war manufacturing in a friendly neighborhood, thereby making logistics a much easier task.
We have again come to a time in our history where we are Living under tyranny, oppression, despotism and an arbitrary leader who has no respect for the rule of law or for the Constitution, and has no fear of Congress. He even has the nerve to say to the Leader of a foreign country “I’m the President, I can do what I want”. The Founding Fathers would be “ashamed” of each and everyone that calls themselves an American and stands by and supports any President of this Great Nation that has such disdain for this country and the beliefs it was founded under. Anyone who supports this Government at this time doesn’t know the meaning of words like Liberty, Freedom, Self-Determination and Self-Reliance. Do you Celebrate the 4th of July, or do you Celebrate Independence Day?
The slogans,words and terms that an administration uses or avoids the use of should and do tell the agenda of the administration and the party in power, all you have to do is stop, look and listen. The next time some tries to sell this nation a policy of “hope and change”, ask just what do you hope will change. Nothing can or will change until you put forth an effort and make a difference, America can not afford much more of this kind of non-sense.
Our Founding Fathers took action and created the greatest nation on earth, get up off your lazy butt and take action, do nothing and you will have nothing. This had always been a country where failure or success was based on personal actions, now it seems that if I do well I must share my rewards with you even though you have risked nothing.
As for the politicians; try this don’t just say the other candidate has no real plan, lay out your complete plan and then state why it is better. Or could it be if you laid out your plan the people might just see you for what you are?
I by no means suggest or imply that I support any government overthrow of this or any other country, I am merely a student of history. If we do not learn the lessons of history, they will be re-visited upon us. History can and will be a cruel teacher to the foolish.

Tangled webs of lies from Politicians and Presidents and the Electorate is to lazy to care or hold them accountable.

In the words of Thomas Paine “These are the times that try men’s souls.”
The months of January and February have certainly tried my patience with the two-party system of government that seems to be the scourge of this Nation. The Republican and Democrat parties have merged into one monolithic tool used to punish and torture America. The Republicans say that they are for a smaller government,lower taxes,austerity and fiscal responsibility. The Democrats have said that they are for the same things at different times. Even President Clinton said “The days of big government are over.” But he did nothing to shrink the size and scope of government. The Democrats are quick to tout that when President G. W. Bush came into office there was a budget surplus. If there really was a budget surplus, and not just manipulated numbers, how could he spend it without Congressional approval. The Federal Government grew by leaps and bounds under President G.W. Bush just as with his predecessors and will not stop with successors of President Obama. All the politician spend money like”drunken sailors”(no disrespect meant to our men and women in the Navy),but it is”public money” meaning tax payer dollars,and none of the fortunes that they have amassed while they were supposed to be representing the citizens and being good stewards of America.
There was a time when Americans would not tolerate a lying or corrupt politician and would remove them from office at the earliest opportunity.President Nixon so embarrassed this Nation that he was forced to resign or face impeachment, he was in his second term. Vice President Agnew had already resigned from office due to criminal charges was replaced by the House Minority Leader Gerald Ford.
President Ford gave a Presidential Pardon to Nixon and was beaten in the next election due to the anger of the public for the pardon of Nixon.
President Carter had such a disastrous domestic and foreign policy approach with runaway interest rates, inflation and high unemployment and the Iranian hostage crisis that he was defeated after one term
. President Reagan had his share of controversies Iran-Contra and most notably the Amnesty program that he promised if we do it this time it will never happen again. The people trusted and believed in him,he had reversed the course of President Carter, and as some believe he saved the country from disaster. The U.S.S.R. had dissolved during his administration.He served two terms.
President G.H.W. Bush was quite popular after the defeat of the Iraqi Military during Desert Storm and would have been unbeatable. His popularity took a dramatic reversal after he famously said “Read my lips,no new taxes’. There were new taxes, he was soundly defeated on election day serving only one term. Some will say he was defeated because Ross Perot entered the race on a third-party ticket. I say he was defeated for lying to America, there are many third-party names on the ballot every election.
President Clinton ushered in a new era in American politics. It was the beginning of a time when citizens no longer held the politicians accountable for their actions or inactions. He should have been impeached or at least resigned from office. The impeachment never happened because every Democrat along with some Republicans chose not to hold him accountable. It became the time of,it depends on what your definition of ‘is’ is.
President G.W. Bush gave us a righteous war with Afghanistan and a war with Iraq based on faulty intelligence with the approval of Congress. Both went from combat to commerce. He also expanded the size and scope of government exponentially. He became an unpopular President during his second term, and with the help of some entrenched politicians protecting their most prized social programs(Fannie-Mae and Freddie-Mac)managed to bring the nation to its financial knees during the housing crisis. He gave us “compassionate conservatism” and magnified “crony capitalism”.
President Obama has enjoyed the benefits of the American voters no longer holding politicians accountable and carries on with “crony capitalism”. The economy is still shaky after 6 years of his failed bail-outs, investments in private companies, stimulus and most notably his failed Affordable Healthcare Act(Obama Care). Now we have yet another delay in the implementation of Obama Care. It seems this rolling disaster of a law never will get on track, the mandate for companies of 50 to 99 employees is going to be delayed through 2015. As an added insult inmates just being released from incarceration will be allowed to enroll in Obama Care with a substantial government(tax-payer)subsidy and some inmates at work release centers will be enrolled(again with substantial subsidies)while still incarcerated. The release of the CBO report should be a wake-up call to America. America is headed down the same path of some EU countries, that is, becoming a full-time nation with part-time workers that will forever need government hand-outs, bail-outs and subsidies. Success and prosperity are seen as evil by this administration and must be punished. This President uses every tactic to keep the people divided even resorting to using the playing card of communism. Using the “ism” cards at every opportunity, preferring the racism and sexism cards above all, but will use any “ism” card that fits the mood of the crowd at his political rallies. The media outlets are his biggest allies and will not challenge him or his policies for fear of being labeled with one of the “ism” cards. The media constantly and relentlessly attacks the Tea Party and their simple(not complicated)ideas to fix the turmoil and chaos that has become the “norm” in Washington D.C.
But he is further enjoying the lapse in voter judgment and he is permitted to continually lie to America, change laws to suit his needs according to what special interest groups say they need. He has started a new and dangerous phase in American politics and the Presidency by using government agencies to harass, punish and spy on his enemies real or imagined. Further, he has dedicated himself to carrying on the policies of President L.B. Johnson and his failed “Great Society”, “War on Poverty” and various other programs. The war on poverty has only increased the amount of people living in poverty, but has had another far-reaching and long-lasting side effect, the food stamp program. The latest report says that will be no appreciable drop in the food stamp participation rate for the next 10 years. This President has developed a very dangerous habit that places America in jeopardy of financial ruin and quite possibly collapse. Where does he think the money that fuel his administration, his whims and his endless vacations, not to mention the amount of dollars it takes to fuel-up Air Force One which has become his personal jet? I know that the President is the President 24 hours a day, and Air Force One is the flying White House. But does he really have to fly to a mid-west university just to sign a bill into law? That could have been done in Washington D.C. He only does these sort of publicity events near places he can attend fund-raisers for the Democrats.
Now, we are revisiting the amnesty plan that we were promised once before, do this now and we will never face this problem again, well, we are facing it again. Today it is the Democrats that are pushing the hardest for immigration reform(just another name for another amnesty plan)along with some Republicans(RINO). The “hole” in the southern border is still there, we have “sanctuary cities” and the Justice Department, Homeland Security and various other government agencies do nothing to curb the influx of illegals crossing the southern border, and will sue any state for taking the initiative to protect their states and their citizens. The current administration sees the possibility of a grateful and never-ending voter base.
And to top this off, now we have a new definition of what ‘is’ is. It now seems that there are varying levels of terrorists and terrorism. In a recent interview the President gave he said some of the terrorists were “JV”(junior varsity), I wondered why or how he could make that distinction. I’ve always been told if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it’s a duck! Now , he arbitrarily eases the rules to allow “minor” terrorists to immigrate to America and becomes citizens. Just what the heck is a minor terrorist? What is minor terrorism? How many more like the two brothers who placed bombs at the Boston Marathon finish line would he like to become American citizens?
I do not listen to President Obama’s speeches as they all sound like political rallies designed to rile up the masses, but I do print and read them. I also don’t use the fact check site, I see no need, as lies can’t be facts. The President as well as most Congressmen have no respect for the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. To make that even worse all of them swore or affirmed an oath to uphold the Constitution. I would venture to say most of them have never read either of them.
As I mentioned above the money to fund this failed, corrupt and possibly criminal administration must come from somewhere. I recently re-read portions of a speech by the President that gave me great pause, it was the one where he said “We need a civilian force just as well-trained and just as well armed as the U.S. Military.” This set me to thinking, he says this and he has said in the past that we must act curb gun violence. He has also said “I have my pen and my phone and will act alone if Congress fails to do so”. Then I remembered Article 1 section 8 of the Constitution, To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years. He could simply disband the U.S. Army by cutting off funding by vetoing the defense appropriations bill. Then he and his minions could raise that civilian force without opposition the Army, Army Reserve and Air Force would simply disappear. Only the Navy guaranteed by the Constitution, and they can be sent away. The National Guard from the fifty states will be busy trying to keep the peace in their respective states.
Here is some food for thought. This is all way to much like Hitler and his rise to supreme power in Germany. He Had his well-trained and armed civilian force, the Brown Shirts, and they were viciously loyal. He has only one problem to overcome and that is the Second Amendment which gives the people the right to keep and bear arms. It doesn’t have to be in this order, but the following must occur for this to happen. If the Electorate does the un-thinkable and give the House of Representatives back to the Democrats, and the Senate remains in the hands of the Democrats this president will be unstoppable. If the Republicans keep the house and take the Senate, he will issue an Executive Order to turn in all guns and make private ownership of guns illegal. Then he could veto the Armed Forces bill, thus disbanding the Army, Army Reserve and the Air Force and immediately deploy the Navy in its entirety. This would leave a disarmed civilian population at the mercy of his henchmen and criminals. You don’t think this can happen, neither did the Jews, Slavs, Gypsies and Homosexuals in Nazi Germany. Some of the poor Guardsmen will become the “New Brown Shirts” and will be joined by minions that have secretly sworn or affirmed an oath of allegiance to the President, who now has become the Dictator. Remember that in Nazi Germany the minions became the “Black Shirts” and started imprisoning or killing the “Brown Shirts” Hitler be came distrustful of. A Dictator in distrustful of everyone because he came to power through usurpation and knows others will do the same, therefore he must purge his inner circle often to insure he alone remains in power.

Liberal Math: America divided by 1 = 2 Americas

Posted on by

There are many in the World, and yes, even some here in America that are determined to see this Great Nation fall into mediocrity. They only see America through the eyes of jealousy and disdain. What they need to see and understand is that this Nation did not happen by chance. This nation was founded on a principle of freedom and liberty. Yet at times our own Government is our own worst Enemy.
The Federal Government has been long going down the path of tyranny and oppression of the people. Legislation is passed at the Federal level and becomes law and yet the ones who impose the burdensome laws are exempt from following, and they find ways to exempt special interest groups. Legislation is voted on and passed without even being read, but why should they read it when they will be exempt.
Today, more than at any other time in history(yes, even in the years, months and days before the War of Northern Aggression[Civil War]) America is divided into two separate but unequal parts. Some would argue that this has been caused by the President. Still others would argue this has been caused by the Liberal Democrats in Congress and the News Media. I will argue that this is caused by a combination of many factors, and will state my case.
As for the President; President(out of respect for the Office, not the Man)Obama came onto the scene promising “Hope and Change” and would “Fundamentally” transform America. The only experience he brought with him was Community Organizing and a life in Academia. He is a shining example of Government education. He feels compelled to apologize to the World for the Transgressions of America. America stands ready everyday to answer the call of anyone or in country in need. When America engages in a hostile conflict it is not to conquer and keep, it is for Freedom and Liberty. It is not the Government fighting and dying on the battlefield it is the American people. If the world feels we have committed a transgression on them, then stop calling us. What he needs to understand is that America is not great because of the Government, America is great because of the people. As for the State of The Union address, I did not watch it, and have not since his first. What I do now is to print a full transcript of the address from 2 sources(you know 1 left and 1 right[those pesky labels]), read them and then watch excerpts from at least 2 sources. The reason I no longer watch them live, is that his appear to be political rallies and not an address to the Nation. The tone and emotion of the President added to the constant interruptions of cheering and applause remind me of Hitler’s speeches at the Reichstag. Then saying he would act alone if Congress failed to act. That one brought all Democrats to their feet. Congress has effectively abdicated Article 1 of The United States Constitution to the President, now if he can get the Supreme Court to abdicate he will no longer have to deal with the Constitution. He has even taken a play straight out of the Communist Handbook and is using Government agencies to harass, oppress and silence his opposition. He has used the IRS to deny or at least delay Tax-exempt status to Conservative and Tea Party groups. This would be useful if you wanted to limit the amount of money any adversary could amass in a political fight. Most people who donate large sums of money do so, only if it is tax-deductible. By denying one group tax favored status you have effectively divided the political parties into winners and losers. In politics the one with the most money wins, they will be able to put out more propaganda and tell the poor we are looking out for you or tell the same old lie about Social Security. Then the DOJ appoints a friendly lawyer to investigate any wrong doings. Amazingly none were found, it was only over zealous rouge agents at one field office. Maybe that same logic should have been used during the Prohibition Era and appointed Al Capone to investigate allegations of illegal whiskey smuggling. The President claims that NSA surveillance is vital for National Security. What could they be looking for? Maybe, compiling a list of citizens that will not be intimidated by his outrageous and arbitrary power grab. But, it goes far and beyond all of this, it is all about controlling every aspect of everyday life. The social and economic plans he outlines do not offer one plan to better the life of the Middle-Class, in fact I would argue that there is no longer a Middle-Class. There are only the poor and the rich. I feel that the ultimate goal of this administration is to do away with the poor and turn them into the Dependent-Class, making them dependent and beholden to Government for everything. This will allow America to be divided by 1 into 2 Americas poor America and Rich America. Then we have the Race issue he feels compelled to bring up every time his poll numbers slump. This allows America to be divided again by 1 into 2 Americas, white America and people of color America. As long as he and his ilk, can keep America divided, some can and will be convinced that only Government can overcome problems. They will keep us divided at all costs.
As for the Media; Since when did it become your responsibility to be a water carrier for any politician? You have helped carry the false message of this administration and failed to hold anyone accountable for anything. Instead you have attacked Republicans and Tea Party candidates relentlessly. Why have you not put forth as much effort in investigating the failures of the current administration? And somehow you still find a way to try to blame President Bush for everything that is wrong in America. Is it that you don’t want to know the truth? Are you afraid to be labeled a “racist” if you challenge the president? The House of Representatives can get little done if they have to fight the Senate, the President and You.
As for the politicians; Take a page from the Presidents playbook and take your message to the people. Remind them that this is a Government of, for and by the People.
So as you can see it takes a lot of collaboration on the part of some, and apathy on the parts of others. As long as the establishment Republicans and the Democrats run Washington, America will remain divided. This division is planned and promoted by the current administration, un-stopped by Congress and supported by the Media. Therefore all of you are responsible for this mess, but as I have said before, the ones that elected you must share some blame, especially if you have been re-elected. As I said earlier the Congress has effectively abdicated to the President, and therefore should return their paychecks to the Treasury. When the establishment politicians, and I don’t care which party, go home to campaign, stop for a minute, look in a mirror and ask yourself what have I done for my district, state or country.

Here it come folks GRA (Government Retirement Accounts).

Posted on by

The President has “tipped his mitt” and totally “flipped” his lid. His new government(tax payer)backed retirement program (MyRA) will leave the poor “saps” he claims to be looking out for, with even less disposable income if they fall for this lie. MyRA is no kind of retirement plan, it simply takes after tax dollars and uses them to buy treasury notes that only currently pay 1.47% interest. We already have a mandatory retirement plan Social Security(unless you are a sitting elected Representative for the people)that we are forced to contribute straight from our paycheck. The combined forced deductions for Social Security and Medicare are 7.65% and your employer is forced to match that amount. Social Security is in trouble, between the unemployment and waste(using the Social Security Trust Fund to fund pet projects)the money will simply run out. To prevent “money exhaustion” the Government will simply ask the lower-income crowd to simply and voluntarily give them more under the pretense of planning for their retirement. If they can’t get enough participation in their latest scheme, they will simply pass a law or through Executive Order mandating employers to offer matching IRAs. Then will come a plea, for all Americans to contact their elected representatives and demand equality in retirement for all Americans. After all, no one wants un-equality or the elderly and vulnerable to suffer. Then will come the ultimate goal of this Socialist regime that has been installed in Washington D.C., Government Retirement Accounts. Just think, everything you have worked and saved for, all your life, will be seized to fund a Government sponsored fund in the name of equality and fairness. I don’t know about you but, I didn’t eat a lot of soup just so someone else could have steak and potatoes. I ate a lot of soup when I was younger, so I could have steak and potatoes whenever I wanted.
Problem is, the Government has been in charge of Social Security since the beginning, and now is heading towards insolvency. If the Government can’t even demonstrate competency with that task, how can you expect or even trust them to over see another retirement system? And just which of our “trustworthy and honest” Government agencies will oversee this new system, that is doomed to fail? They will do the same as they always have done, they will lie, cheat and steal. A Government Retirement Account could be a new and powerful weapon to use against any perceived enemies, just like the IRS. After all then the Government would be able to set the programs retirement age and amount of monthly payments friends get more earlier, enemies get less later. Maybe, a new Government department should be created to oversee the program, The Department of Equality and Fairness. That would create a new cabinet level position and another chance to nominate another person that probably cheated on their taxes.
Why is it that everything needs a “comprehensive” reform but Social Security? Could it be that all the money is missing? If the Social Security Administration was audited and the books opened to scrutiny, what would be found? If all of the money is “missing” how could it be replaced? The answer is simple, seize all private retirement accounts(it just takes an Executive Order) before the disclosure, and to hide that crime move the money around playing a shell game until another crisis or scandal(real or made-up)could distract the people. If all of the money is still there, why all the noise and fear mongering?
The Politicians and economists claim that people aren’t saving because they don’t have enough money to save. To this I say “Bovine Feces”. People don’t save because they have never learned the value of a dollar. They are only following the example that you set. When I Make my weekly trip to town for groceries I am appalled at the numbers of people(large people)standing in line with the EBT and SNAP cards, talking on the latest smart phone, purchasing better quality food with tax payer dollars than my family can eat. Some people will stand in line for hours or even days, to purchase the newest video game console, video game or smart phone(they always have money for these)but can never have a dime to save.
This is for the Politicians. You have taught them well, they have never learned to be responsible, just live for today and never worry about tomorrow and budgets, we don’t need budgets. The next time you go to your home district just look around, what you see is your legacy. You have done America a great disservice by your service. You have cast upon this Nation a generation, and in some cases generations, of citizens with no sense of self-reliance that are totally dependent on Government assistance for every aspect of their daily lives. Next comes the Government planning for their retirement and life afterwards. When will you tend to the affairs as spelled out in the constitution and quit meddling in the daily lives of the responsible Americans? Maybe if you would set a better example and became good stewards of this Nation, then maybe, just maybe the dependent would be independent. The truly needy do need help, the lazy do not.
In my home everyone knows the value of a dollar, and to insure no waste, a name is attached to every dollar and it is treated as a friend. No one worth their “salt” will squander a friendship.
But, if you really want to learn about equality and fairness do the following. Research your home district or state, see what the pay is in your hometown highest to lowest, pick the middle number, take that much money with you and try living on it. Don’t forget to save some for retirement. Sure hope you like soup.

More Non-Sense

The President, will today announce sweeping changes for the NSA. This is utter non-sense. If he can order changes, then he is aware of what they are collecting. The IRS, a Government agency(the one everyone fears) was used as a political weapon to attack conservative groups. What, is to say that this corrupt administration has not used the NSA as a weapon against his perceived foes? This is The United States of America, not some third world Banana Republic, where the Dictator uses his pen to make-up and change laws for his convenience or at his will. Our elected Congress does not have the intestinal fortitude to stop the President from disregarding the Constitution. Thus, Congress is complicit in his actions. It seems he can just order a change to laws(that have been passed by congress, signed by him and upheld by the Supreme Court) because he did not know or was not aware of problems with the roll-out of his pet legislation. This once great nation is slowly sliding into oblivion. Our only hope is that come Election Day the Electorate will correct the error that has been made and inflicted on America. But, as I pointed out above, the NSA has been collecting a lot of information about the citizens of America, and would be an effective weapon to use against opponents.
Now the President says “I have my pen and a phone”. The Speaker says “We have the Constitution”. News for you Mr. Speaker, he has used his pen a lot. When did you use the Constitution to stop him? If he were to sign an Executive Order nullifying the Constitution and declaring himself President for life, what would you do?
There was a time when men(not politicians) went to Washington for America, now politicians(not men) go for themselves and take(steal) whatever they can. How can so many public officials amass so much material wealth and risk nothing. What ever happened to “we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor”?. I guess that was a time when America was more important than politicians and their own agenda. When a politician is elected to office, they are done so, by a free choosing electorate and are well compensated for their services. Why, is it that they feel compelled to win re-election by “buying votes”? How will you win re-election when you have taken all there is from those of us who do pay taxes, and there is nothing left to give away? The office they hold is an Honor, and should be honored to serve. I have the utmost respect for the office, but the person holding that office must earn my Respect.
Speaking of compensation, have politicians earned theirs. As I pointed out you risk nothing. The men and women of our Armed Forces earn every penny. They risk it All everyday, whether training or in combat. Yet, they are insulted by a 1% raise. A friend said “they balanced the budget on the backs of our Military and Veterans”. My response was “No they didn’t, they balanced the budget on the backs of the smallest voting block”. Only 7% of the citizens have served in the Military and only 1.3% serve now. Considering 47% of Americans pay no income tax, of that most get back more than they pay in(I find this part most confusing. If I buy an item and then return it, I only get exactly what I paid for it). So 53% pay for 100% of everything, 47% pay for nothing and get everything, 1.3%(7% if you count all the veterans)safeguard the Freedom of 100%. Are the Military members justly compensated for their service?. I must say NO! When a Service Member RE-UPS, he or she has to sign a contract for a specific length of service and swears or affirms to up-hold the Constitution of The United States Of America. This all done willingly knowing the dangers that will be faced. Politicians, will you accept the same Compensation you so generously provide our Military, or will you continue to live your lavish lifestyle, enact laws that you do not have to live under and give away(if appropriate,and if not steal)the treasure(taxes paid by hard working Americans)of America.
Now, Normally I do not use profanity, but in my heyday as a Non-Commissioned Officer in the U.S. Army I could “cuss” for 10 minutes and never use the same word twice. I would enjoy the chance to discuss my views with any of you. This all you get for free.
Proud to have served and you can Kiss My BUTT!!!!!!!!
