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.

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.

He can see the prize from his throne

Posted on by

Dear Leader BHO can see the prize and it is now within his grasp. The GOP is busy fighting among themselves. The country is busy watching the crisis unfolding in The Ukraine and The Crimea and speculating on the missing airliner.

BHO will move forward with his ideas of immigration reform. As it stands now he has already threatened to act alone if Congress fails to act, he has a phone and a pen. He has two chances to accomplish this, force Congress to do something now or wait until the mid-term election results are in. He has already set a dangerous and unchallenged precedent of arbitrarily changing and amending laws to suit his goals. If you are forced into passing a bill that is to rigid, the Senate will either not bring it to the floor for debate, or send it to the President to sign knowing that he will arbitrarily change the law to fit his agenda. If you are forced into submitting a bill that is to weak you will surely lose the election. If he waits until the mid-term election results are in and the Democrats lose the Senate and the Republicans retain the House of Representatives he will use his phone and pen. Any way this plays out BHO is in a win-win situation.The Republican party can still lose in the mid-terms, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. The Republicans should have already examined their core values and principles and recognized that The Tea Party is now what they should have always been. If the Republicans take the Senate and retain the House for the sake of this Nation elect a leadership that has some “Backbone”, and set about repairing the damages that have been done.

The stage is already set for the moochers and social parasites to do the bidding of BHO. While Congress was either being self-serving or asleep at the wheel this nation was hi-jacked and went of course. The military cuts are only the beginning of what is to come. Shrinking the Military to pre-World War 2 numbers is an insane course of action given the political instability and radicalism of the world. Pay reductions and cutting benefits will do little to maintain a strong and capable fighting force and the numbers of veteran and experienced Military members will decline, maybe that’s the plan, the numbers of career service members will surely decline. With fewer retired Military members to pay this self-serving and narcissistic President and his “tool” of a Secretary of Defense and the other Cabinet Members will use the savings to pay off their voluntary slaves. We as Military Retirees are already the smallest voting block in the country.

Just which group of illegal immigrants is he seeking immigration reform for? This is the question that has been yet to be addressed. What will be the order of citizenship and what terms will be set as the path toward citizenship? At present there are many different “classes” of illegal aliens residing in America. Are the reforms he envisions designed to be only for the illegals who crossed the southern border? If that is the case, he again divides illegals into small and controllable groups as it leaves out the ones that have over stayed their visas, crossed the northern border and the many other ways they arrive here each day. If one group is favored over another it will only promote more discourse. The reforms will be in the form of a new law, they did not obey the first law what makes the politicians believe the next one will be obeyed. Now we have the issue of states giving driving privileges to illegal aliens, the problem is that all the states honor the licenses of the various states. America is a nation of laws, or at least it is supposed to be. The mere fact that there are illegal aliens here is proof that the current laws are not being enforced and instead of punishment for breaking the law they will be rewarded for breaking the law. And yet again the Federal Government will punish the ones who did everything right to becomes citizens, and the ones who are doing the right thing and the permanent resident aliens. How did this ever become a nation that punishes citizens for lawful behavior while rewarding unlawful behavior?

BHO is a capitalist of sorts, he has capitalized on the blunders of previous administrations, the expansion of government and the ineptness of Congress. He will capitalize on the new citizens that reform will surely bring in the form of new Democratic voters. The new voters will join his ever-growing legion of voluntary government slaves. He has also capitalized on the government practice of throwing money at problems instead of addressing the problem. He has really capitalized of the moral and social corruption and the stagnation of America. He is not the first President to go around Congress to ensure his agenda comes to fruition. He has however, taken his usurpations and abuses of power to new levels and Congress and the Courts have given him the tools he needs. He has and will continue to use the “tools” that head up the Cabinet in his administration to spy, threaten and coerce, use events involving different races, continue to promote discourse and use any advantageous crisis in the world and this country to divide the people into small controllable groups. The latest attempt at racial division came in the announcement of programs to help “young men of color”, it also divides the sexes. BHO making the rounds on the talk and comedy shows is a little disturbing and “smacks” of Hugo Chavez and his constant appearances on Venezuelan television. I don’t think he was at all joking about a third term. I also believe that his constant division of America by race and income inequality is promoted by the majority of the news networks, and the both of them are looking to return to the America of the 1960’s. The race riots and war protests were tearing at the very fiber of America, and let’s not forget the domestic terrorism that was occurring during this time, some of the domestic activists and bombers even became life-long friends of BHO.

And don’t think for a minute that the radical left has missed a thing that is occurring in the world. With the advent of 24 hour news channels every upheaval and insurrection around the world is beamed into Americas living rooms constantly. If the Ukraine can erupt in protests and riots that cause a complete change in the government, what is to say it can not happen here, causing even a partial change. He has already proven on several occasions that he doesn’t need Congress and can even go around the courts. BHO is constantly on the road giving speeches about his proposed social programs and reforms he has proposed while reminding the masses that Congress stands in his way. He blames Congress in general and the House of Representatives in particular for the government shut-down and the sequester inconvenience. In case you missed it the protests began with the Occupy movement BHO, the Left and the Media were right there with them.

The definition as given by Webster’s. Reform: verb: 1a: to put or change into an improved form or condition b: to amend or improve by change of form or removal of faults or abuses 2: to put an end to(an evil)by enforcing a better method or course of action. Reform: noun: 1 amendment of what is defective, vicious, corrupt or depraved 2: a removal or correction of an abuse, a wrong or errors.

At this point the only “reform” I want to see is a reform (using the noun) of the politicians Washington D.C. The politicians at all levels of government are described in the definition of reform especially the words “corrupt and depraved”.

Now for a little history and an observation for our “distinguished and esteemed” members of Congress who seem a little confused about America. In order to avoid confusing you I will include only the years of these historic events, if you need the exact dates feel free to call. I almost forgot you are already spying and have already seen the file. It is the one titled America. The least you could do is read it while you are there, you might even learn something, I have put a lifetime of work into it. Enjoy!
The Revolutionary War began in 1775.
The Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776.
The Revolutionary War ended in 1781.
The U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1787. This is the one that you promised to uphold. Read it !!!!
The first President was elected in 1789.
The Bill of Rights was ratified in 1791. These go with the Constitution that you promised to uphold. Read these also !!!

A little bonus for you. This nation began as 13 colonies fighting for freedom and liberty and existed as such from 1781 through 1787 with no form of centralized Federal Government, not even having our first President until 1789. During those years this country as it was prospered because there was no tyranny, only freedom and liberty.

But, at what cost?

Posted on by

BHO was elected on a slogan of “hope and change” and a promise to radically “transform America”, but at what cost. He was re-elected on a slogan of “forward”, and again at what cost. Much of this post will have a tie-in to previous posts I have written, and there are future posts that will have a tie-in to this post. As I have said before I am a student of history, learn its lessons or they will be re-visited upon you, expanding on that, your future will be a direct result of the choices you make today. Therefore we all must learn from the past, use that knowledge, and make wise and prudent choices that will ensure a future of prosperity. There will also be references to events, speeches, parts of speeches and sayings of people from Americas present that tell of our future, and past that foretold of our future had those before us listened. They will not be referenced or mentioned in this post. Likewise, if in reading this post you happen across some you have not heard before they are probably mine , feel free to use them I seek no credit. This post is not about them, it is about you and me. the only direct reference that will be made is to our current President and will be referenced only as BHO.
Slavery. This especially cruel and vile practice did not come about with the advent of America. Slavery has been used throughout history as a tool of forced labor even dating back to Biblical times, entire nations were taken into slavery as a result of military conquests. Historically there are 2 types of slavery. The first is, Involuntary slavery, the being taken, sold and used as forced labor, or just being captured and used as forced labor. I doubt seriously that a “pasty white” European was running through the jungles or across vast plains or savannahs capturing natives then dragging them back to load them onto ships and sailing to the new world to sell their cargo. The shear cost of this operation would have been staggering and logistically impossible. The most likely scenario is the victors selling the vanquished on the beaches to the pasty white Europeans. This type of slavery relies on a physical difference between the slave and the slave holder making visual identity easy should a slave escape or be lost, aiding in recovery. This type of slavery historically collapses on its own weight and technological advances, even becoming logistically impossible to maintain control as the number of slaves grows. Humans typically want to be free and will eventually reach a point in sufficient numbers and strength to challenge the slave holders and gain freedom either through force or the logistics of maintaining forced labor becoming so over-bearing to a point where a free person becomes more useful than a slave. The second and perhaps the most heinous type is Voluntary slavery, that is selling yourself to be used in any shape, manner or fashion to the person or group you have sold yourself to. At this point I must mention this, do not confuse “Indentured Servitude” with “Voluntary Slavery”, as it is we all, at some time or another in our lives become indentured servants. Indentured servants generally sign a contract to work off or pay-off a financial obligation such as a mortgage, automobile purchase or apply for and use a credit card, these are all for a specified length of time, not a life time. A person who has agreed to become a voluntary slave has entered into a life long obligation and quite possibly for generations. At this point I will make the following statements to illustrate my point. The “Involuntary Slave” has no loyalty to the slave holder and everyday seeks a way out and longs for freedom, liberty and the right to self-determination. The “Indentured Servant” is only loyal until the debt is satisfied and knows exactly when freedom, liberty and self-determination will be restored. The “Voluntary Slave” is loyal to the point of sacrificing freedom, liberty and self-determination, but through this act can demand higher payments for continued loyalty. Now enters “The Law of Unintended Consequences”, at some point in time the payments used to purchase your loyalty will stop because you have taken all there is to take and there is no more. The only recourse you “Slave Holder” has is to beg and borrow money from foreign nations, who are not our friends, to continue purchasing your loyalty. I signed no contract and yet I am now an “Involuntary Indentured Servant” working to pay-off a debt that was incurred just so the government can continue purchasing the loyalty of an ever-growing and expanding pool of “Voluntary Slaves”. When a Freeman is forced into involuntary anything, he is looking for a way out and most often will find one. BHO and Presidents before him have capitalized on your selfishness and lack of self-respect and willingness to sell your self into “voluntary government slavery” and they can and could revel in the fact that slavery is not dead. “Ask not what my country can do for me, but rather Ask what I can do for my country”. I will close this paragraph with this. The “Voluntary Slaves” are nothing but “Government Whores”, but they can all rest easy tonight in the fact that no one can call any of you or your off-spring “cheap government whores”.
When the total cost of 8 years of this corrupt, social program engineering administration is added up it may well be more than can be afforded. With the cancellation of the new model of spacecraft we now have to rely on foreign governments to give our Astronauts a ride to the ISS. With the tensions with Russia over The Ukraine has BHO given total and absolute control over the ISS to Russia? BHO has put the U.S. in the awkward position of having to rely on other nations for assistance. The U.S. has never had to rely on any one for anything. We were at one time a nation that was self-sufficient and self-reliant. The world “apology tour” only demonstrated to the world that we had gone from a mentality of “We have nothing to fear but fear itself” to a mentality of “we fear everything and everyone”. And all of the bowing down before other world leaders only served to illustrate the point that BHO had declared that America was inferior to the rest of the world. As I have said before BHO fears all foreign governments and their people, but has no fear of the American Government or People. BHO has his legions of “voluntary slave government whores” to do his bidding as long as he can keep the loyalty payments coming. I have noticed the absence of many of the BHO activist groups from the scene, they are still out there but are strangely quite, waiting in the wings to be called into action and service once again. The BHO activist groups are ever-expanding, and I venture to say, the quite groups are training and preparing to act at the next prompt or crisis to propel BHO into the next phase of his assault on America.
The destruction of the U.S. military by BHO and his henchmen is only the beginning of this phase of his assault on America. The monies saved by cutting our military are being used to form a new legion of “voluntary slaves” by saying that the minority groups aka “young men of color” need new opportunities to lift themselves out of whatever situation they find themselves in. I would challenge these young men of color to ask BHO what took you so long to see us, and why did you not do something while you were in Congress. The answer to you question would be, I need you now. “A man should be judged by his content not the color of his skin”. I say to these young men, you are where you are because of government interference and you have been kept there by government not by society. The government in general and BHO in particular now needs you to sell yourselves into “voluntary slavery” to make yourselves beholden to government. They will only offer campaign slogans and broken promises, when you are no longer useful you will not get the slightest mention and be placed in storage, with pay of course, until you are needed again. The family unit was destroyed by government, look back in history at how various groups in America regardless of color have been used by government as a tool to further their agenda and promote some ill-guided program that became necessary only because of government meddling. “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”
The SOTU address mentioned “promise zones”(spelled correctly here), of late BHO has mentioned the “manufacturing hubs” when these doomed plans come into light there will be a strong unionization push to protect the workers rights to protect them from the evil corporations. The “evil legions” and the “voluntary slaves” will be mobilized and the will of the few will override common sense. If the unionization attempt fails the NLRB will be called into action. BHO must protect his base.
The institution of slavery whether it is “involuntary” or “voluntary” will at some point collapse under its own weight. In the end the “slave holder” will become the “slave”.
One interesting thing about “voluntary slaves” is that at the ballot box, they can use their vote to enslave not only their city, county and state but the nation as a whole. I will not be an involuntary anything. This is America and people can and do vote with their feet. Selfishness and greed will cause free people to relocate and leave the voluntary slaves to their own devices.
This is a thought on the “establishment politicians” you finally got your “dream come true” with the election and re-election of BHO, you finally feel free and un-encumbered to inflict as much pain on America as possible while using BHO as a shield. You are truly “pathetic”. “If your brains were to catch fire and I was there I would not even pee in your ears”.
America has a Constitution and a Bill of Rights. The second guarantees that you will have the rest. The States are under threat to comply with BHO.
BHO has told President Putin that will be costs. Another empty threat from an empty suit. Putin may not be invited to an “elitist” meeting. I can hear Putin shaking in his boots right now.
I saved this one for last. “Starch is one of the greatest products ever, it can provide rigidity to flimsy fabric, but it can not be used to make up for the lack of a spine”.
We as a nation have been thrown a “life-preserver” in the name of The TEA party, grab ahold of it, do not push it away. Support it . Attend rallies. Vote.
“These are the times that try men’s souls”.
If you see me on the street greet me. You can call me by my title Sergeant Bryan, or you can call me Mr. Bryan, if you think yourself my superior or at least my equal call me Willis, if you are my friend call me Gracin. There is no cost to be my friend. I took an oath to defend this country from all enemies foreign and domestic.

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.

Realist or Visionary? Left or Right? Democrat or Republican? Why all the labels? Part 2

Posted on by

The Politicians, News Media and Political Activists have devised a way to take away our individualism. They simply label us either Left, Liberal, Right, Conservative, Democrat, Republican and so forth, once everyone has been labeled they become easier to sort, categorize, inventory and control. Individualism, self-reliance and self-determination are no longer recognized or tolerated by our political system. For instance, a Democrat is not allowed to be pro-life, likewise a Republican is not allowed to be pro-choice, if you do not toe the party line you can not play, and the party will not support you. That is unless, your base is not the majority and you need a little help to get elected. After the election you can just switch back, and switch back come the next election cycle. The majority of the politicians have lost sight of their core values and just move along with the herd. The Political Parties and the Politicians have no idea of their beginnings, and just like reading a map if you don’t know where you came from, you don’t knowing where you are going.
The Democratic Party evolved from the Anti-Federalist and the Democratic-Republican Parties. They favored a strict interpretation of the Constitution to restrict the powers of the Federal Government and emphasized States rights.
The Republican Party evolved from the Democratic-Republican Party. They favored business, financial and some agricultural interests and a restricted role of Government in economic life.
Somehow, over time these two political parties corrupted and perverted themselves into what they are now. Both of them have grown the Government to a point that it is in every aspect of every ones life, with no end in sight. No matter what they say or promise they will not stop or even slow the growth of the “monster” until it has consumed everything. They will not return America to the citizens. They will not give up the power they have stolen. They both have inflated opinions of their worth claiming to know better what is good for us than we do ourselves. Here is a simple test for you, it will prove how great and special you really are. Get a glass of water, stick your finger in and then pull it out, if there is a hole where your finger was then you are truly special.
The State and Local Politicians are no better, they carry on the tradition of stealing, lying and cheating. They have even resorted to class warfare lately. They have not been responsible with the property tax money, sales tax or any other fees and taxes that have been imposed on the citizens, without their consent. Now, the “monster” needs more, the more will come in the form of increased property taxes, punishing those that have caught the American Dream. Claiming more money is needed for the schools, it seems that whenever more needs to be “stolen” everyone is concerned for the children. If taxes and rate hikes keep coming, the children will starve just so the taxes can be paid to keep a roof over their precious little heads.
Conservative And Liberal are only ideals based on principles(I only wish they truly had some). The Conservative Politicians are only conservative with their stuff(money), the Liberal Politicians are only liberal with the stuff(money)of others.
Left and Right are the extremes of both ranging from Capitalism to Nazism. When all else fails these words are used, with the occasional word Fanatic thrown in.
It has all become this way due to the Government becoming so Divisive. The Government can ill afford for the people to get together discuss and solve their own problems, if we could do that, we wouldn’t need them and their power over the people would vanish. The Founding Fathers did just that, without a Government they sat down and put on paper the founding documents of America. Just imagine all those different opinions and beliefs, yet they still worked that all out without the help of Government. For the Politicians to remain in power they must keep us divided, and they will use any means available.
Now everyone is a victim of some imaginary act or injustice. Nothing In America can now be worked out without the ever intrusive “Big Brother”. Government with its replicating social programs is using the treasure of America to bring forth a new generation of people who are neither self-reliant or self-sufficient. Who ever can lay claim to this new generation will have a grateful and endless supply of votes, at least until the money runs out. This group will be labeled the “Moochers” and their numbers will grow with every new social program and “comprehensive reform” of all of the failed programs meant to bring social fairness. There was, even in my lifetime, a time when the community came to the aid of people in need. People were given a hand up not a hand out, and the one that received help would be the first to offer assistance the next time help was needed.
Now, as I am always willing to help, I will save you some time and label myself(wouldn’t want to be miss labeled). Here goes:
Realist, Pro-Life, Pro-Gun, Pro-Constitution, Conservative(in the truest meaning of the word),self-reliant, For a smaller and less intrusive government and in case I missed anything this should remove any doubt in your mind as to who I am and what I stand for period. The greatest pieces of literature are as follows; 1.The Holy Bible(King James Version, words written in red)2. The Constitution of The United States 3.The Declaration of Independence 4.The Declaration of Arms 5. Common Sense 6.The American Crisis.
