It matters, it all matters

Posted on by

The U.S. government is out of control and is now testing the resolve of the nation. Recently we saw the BLM thugs backdown from a rancher holding his ground and a group of brave patriots by his side. BHO never addressed the standoff or do anything to lessen the tensions, but he did find time to give one of his speeches to a group of voters at an event hosted by Al the race baiting, alleged Reverend, in New York. Seems to me that BHO will only associate with a Reverend that has a deep and undying hatred of America, as they say “birds of a feather stick together”. I did notice a stark contrast between the Patriots at the Bundy Ranch and the cheering and applauding audience at Al’s event. Do not think for a minute that will be overlooked by the liberal media. They will not mention the audience make-up(would not want to offend), but they will mention the Patriot make-up(do not care if they offend), of that you can be sure.
I know that I am not the only one who sees this but, BHO and his minions only stick their noses in and interject any thing if the alleged victim is a minority and the perpetrator is white or appears to be so. If it had been a group of illegals surrounded by militia he would have mobilized the federal law enforcement agencies to hold the militia at bay for enforcing a law the federal government, will not and does not but is supposed to be enforcing. Instead of arresting the illegals the Federals would point their weapons at the Militia. Then he would have hopped on Air Force One(his personal tax-payer funded taxi), and been there as they say “in a New York minute” to personally handle the situation or at least given the illegals a welcome to America speech, again rewarding illegal action and punishing good and lawful action. But he would have screwed that up as he has done every time he stuck his nose in things he does not understand. Then we would have to endure another beer summit, or a speech saying that could have been him as a teenager. Give me a freaking break!!!

One has to wonder why after all the time that has passed, why now did the BLM thugs become so aggressive. The administration knew what would happen in fact they hoped for it. This(remember the promise)”most open and transparent administration ever” must have needed time to hide something up their sleeve or needed a distraction to pull something from their sleeve, after all isn’t the BLM a part of the federal government. No government agency can take action without someone issuing “marching orders”, someone in the District of Criminals had to give the order. This goes for all government agencies IRS, DOJ, NSA, DOI, BLM and all the rest, no freelancing is allowed, this goes for all secretaries no matter what department they head. If BHO is allowing each department, agency head or underling to take independent actions(freelancing)we as a nation are in more serious trouble than anyone could imagine. If this is happening BHO gave the order to do what you feel is needed or warranted or what you might think I would want. As I see it everything that has happened, has happened because BHO allowed it an encouraged it, no action to stop an abuse of power is in fact condoning the act.

This latest federal government threats and the actions that were taken may well just be just a taste of what is to come. BHO and his minions will try another stunt, again to test the resolve of Patriotic Americans and they will continue to push until the push-back stops or until they have the resources at hand to attempt to crush all opposition. The law enforcement agencies at all levels are being armed and equipped with some of the same equipment that our Military uses to wage war. I look at the city and county law enforcement today and can’t believe that they have become so militarized both in equipment and dress.

Even some departments with-in the federal government that one would normally never assume has any law enforcement powers has an enforcement arm hidden somewhere in the department. Look at the break down of the department, those of us with experience commonly refer to these as “wiring diagrams”, you will see how many have something called an enforcement division or a protection office. Even the supposedly independent agency of the FCC has an enforcement division, are they armed, I don’t know, but they are tied to Homeland Security, and Homeland Security is armed, they are armed to the teeth with some pretty neat equipment. The Department of Homeland Security has a rather large umbrella, anything could be hidden under it.

There are times that I truly believe that BHO gives his speeches just to stir-up the “dumb masses” which causes even more animosity and strife. He does this knowing sooner or later the more extreme and radical in attendance at his rallies will interpret it as a “call to action”. I also believe that BHO will continue on the path he has chosen and taken, and will also recruit millions of “disenfranchised” loafers to do his bidding in continuing the division of America. An outbreak of violence in the country, anywhere in the country, will give him the go ahead to destroy the rest of the Constitution or at least begin to use it. Habeas Corpus will be denied, citizens could be arrested and held indefinitely without any charge or on trumped-up charges, martial law would be imposed, elections would be postponed, BHO could be president for life. All of the Bill of Rights would be suspended, police and the military would be loosed upon society with no protections from the protectors.

The most recent episode with Federals being out of control was not the first and will not be the last:
Kent State University May 1970
Ruby Ridge in 1992
Waco Siege (Branch Davidians) 1993
There were many before and since, and as pointed out someone somewhere had to give the go ahead. I believe that the order came from the top. These events serve to illustrate the lawlessness of law and the enforcers.

My home, my furniture, my clothing and my life

Posted on by

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

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

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

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

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

How much longer do we have ? Part 7

Posted on by

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

How much longer do we have? Part 6

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

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

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

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

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

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

How much longer do we have? Part 4

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

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

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

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

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

life in the minority

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

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

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

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

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

To be continued.

How much longer do we have? Part 2

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.
