WHAT IS VOTING AND DOES IT MATTER?


Blog Post - Vote 3

In our American system of politics we determine who serves in ‘elected offices’ based on voting by the public or at least that is how it is designed.  I understand that voter fraud, election tampering and things of that nature can alter the outcome and unlike some of my friends and acquaintances I do not believe all elections are ‘rigged’ and the outcome predetermined.  Maybe I’m living in a fantasy but I still believe that if enough of us turn out and vote, become poll watchers, election judges, and involved in the process we can offset and negate the voter fraud and tampering.  That is my belief and you may wholeheartedly agree or disagree that’s up to you.

According to Merriam-Webster the word vote means “a usually formal expression of opinion or will in response to a proposed decision; especially: one given as an indication of approval or disapproval of a proposal, motion or candidate for office.”  With that definition in hand I ask, “Is it important to vote?”  If we are going to ‘formally’ give our opinion in a way that has the potential to impact the future of our nation and our lives, we need to vote.  For the moment, forget the voter fraud and tampering and consider what it means for you to ‘cast your ballot’ or express your formal opinion on election-day.  If I vote I am expressing my approval or disapproval but if I fail to vote what am I doing?  I am expressing my opinion that I am okay with whoever wins the election or the decision on the particular issue being considered.  I am, in a very real sense, saying I either do not care what happens am resigned to the fatality of whatever decision is made, or okay with the either possibility.  I CANNOT DO THAT!  I do care and am not okay with the possibilities so I vote.

Blog Post - Vote 2

I understand the repulsion to the notion that we have to ‘vote for the lesser of two evils’ and while I am empathetic America is spiraling almost at the speed of light toward the abyss of destruction and I want that changed even if it is a small change.  I am a combat veteran of the Vietnam era and consider myself a patriot who believes in the Constitutional Republic that our founders gave us.  I believe in our unalienable rights that God has granted and the Constitution recognized.  I believe in limited government, desire reduced spending, erasing the deficit, a strong national defense, and the free market.  Therefore, I feel that if I fail to vote I am casting those aside and saying, “Nothing can be done so why bother.”  I CANNOT DO THAT! 

The battle for America as a Constitutional Republic is not limited to the ballot box it is a daily effort.  The establishment of both major political parties has become corrupt with a thirst for power that is unacceptable and would have prompted our founding fathers to call for action to reject them.  I call for that today!  I am not calling for armed insurrection but for systematic efforts to dethrone those who have become entrenched in power in Washington and the State Houses who do not follow the Constitution or support the values and principles we hold dear.  We can overcome them as was evidenced in Ronald Reagan’s overcoming the establishment and winning election twice in landslides.  Having someone who has some charisma, enough oratorical ability to engage people and inspire the conversation while articulating what they believe will win elections.  Milk toast RINO’s like John McCain, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush, or Chris Christy will not.  A majority of people in America still want a Constitutional Republic and hold conservative values, at least fiscally and with regard to national security.  Sadly, the Republican Establishment thinks playing defense will win the game but without offense no points are scored and the game or election is lost.

Blog Post - Vote 1

I have spoken with people who are immigrants from countries where they did not have the right or privilege to vote as we and they are dumbfounded at the apathy of most American voters.  Some of them are keenly engaged in vetting politicians and issues and regard their VOTE as a treasure and a sacred trust.  I would that a majority of Americans felt the need and desire to vote and then if the decision is contrary to what I believe and desire I could more readily accept that reality but when MILLIONS just do not vote and allow the politicians and policies that are ambassadors against Freedom and a Constitutional Republic win, I am deeply disturbed.  I consider it a privilege, responsibility, duty and a sign of respect to my God, Family, and Country to participate by casting my ballot.  If you disagree that is your choice I am just expressing my view.  Thank you for allowing me to do so.

            God bless you and God bless America.

AMERICA’S FUTURE IF…..


Blog Post - America's Future

My title opens the door for me to present ‘much every way’ as a preacher friend of mine used to say he preached.  Some tell me that America has no future but I want to address this by looking at several scenarios and leave it to you to decide what you think.

America’s future if the Republicans keep the House and win the Senate…

One the one hand I would like to think that this would be a Congress that has the courage, spine, backbone, intestinal fortitude and constitutional reverence to actually DO SOMETHING to stop this administration from further destroying our republic.  That is a scenario I have little hope of becoming a reality but I am 100% convinced that if this happens Barack Obama will go completely rogue and govern via Executive Fiat.  He will go far beyond what he has already done and his actions will not only be unconstitutional but illegal and treasonous.  The only hope for America at that point would be a Congress that impeaches and/or indicts him.  He has already said he plans to stay in Washington after his term to insure his policies are not repealed or rolled back.  The dangers for America are colossal therefore we MUST insure that there, at a minimum, a hope in Washington of impeding the advancement of his ideology and agenda.

Blog Post - Power

America’s future if the Republicans keep the House and do not win the Senate…

Barack Obama will know he is safe from anything more than a slap on the wrist and will go completely rogue and America will be so radically transformed by the end of 2016 no one will recognize her.  While electing Republicans to control both Houses of Congress might not accomplish much it would afford the possibility of stopping him and might give him pause and the Democrats to hesitate in any full scale advancement of his agenda.

America’s future if Hillary Clinton is elected President in 2016….

DOOM!  Barack Obama is a narcissistic, self-serving ideology who has surrounded himself with people who share like ideology and Anti-American views and he has demonstrated some sway to public opinion.  Hillary has not surrounded herself with friends she does not have any and does not believe she needs any.  Unlike Bill Clinton who being the consummate politician did take note of public opinion, Hillary listens to NO ONE and only to Bill when it serves her purpose but otherwise, given the opportunity she would advance the ideological causes Barack Obama has begun with such urgency America could not survive.  I see Mr. Obama as quite ruthless on some things but Hillary makes Genghis Khan seem tame.  I am convinced that NOTHING would be off the table with her to ensure the achievement of her objective.

Blog Post - United Nations

One thing that Barack Obama, Hillary, and Bill Clinton share is the desire to be the recognized leader of the New World Order and all envision the position of Secretary General of the United Nations as a step toward achieving that goal.  I do not believe that Bill Clinton wants Hillary to be president because of unwavering support for her but as a means to an end to get him the position in the United Nations.  Mr. Obama, I believe, is so narcissistic and full of himself that he believes he will be automatically elected in that body and if he is will do there what he has done in America and attempt to usurp the sovereignty of the nations of the world and usher in the New World Order with him as the self-proclaimed head.  Although I seriously doubt the world is quite ready to accept that, a crisis or two such as a massive Ebola outbreak or some other calamity could open that door and a virtual martial law internationally be imposed in the name of ‘preserving the world’.

Blog Post - Price of Freedom 

America, if we are to have a future and a hope we must pray in repentance and intercession for our nation and our world.  We must work at all levels to find and elect people who share the moral and constitutional values that our nation was founded upon and has allowed her to survive.  Can we do that in an election cycle or two, I do not know but I do not believe we have many election cycles left and maybe on one or two before the death knell sounds.  WE THE PEOPLE OF THESE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA must fight to the finish to preserve that which we were given over 200 years ago.

What price are you willing to pay to save, restore and/or reclaim the republic?  May God bless you and may God bless America!

THE CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER…..


Blog Post - Clear and Present

Over the course of the past few days, weeks, and months many disturbing situations have come to light.  The normal political spin and rhetoric has been in full swing but there are questions that should be asked and answered but are not and will not likely become reality.  The questions will only be asked by people like me and other people, some with large audiences, who are conservative and honor the constitution.  However those will be attacked by the government and their agencies as simply ‘conspiracy theories’, ‘paranoia’, and ‘hysteria’, but are they? 

 When people with military backgrounds including intelligence gathering, former ICE, Border Patrol, and other enforcement agencies all say much the same things it causes my radar to go off and demands that I at least look into the suggestions.  Are they all accurate?  I doubt it.  Is there an element of truth in many of them?  Without question!  Should we be concerned?  I am!

Blog Post - Asymetric

 When former Border Patrol Agent Zach Taylor stated his belief that the ‘open border’ as being part of ‘asymmetrical warfare,’ it caught my attention.  Especially in light of the hordes of supposedly ‘minor children’ flooding our southern borders and from all indication was inspired by the White House and if not inspired or orchestrated it was known by them it was coming.  WHY?  What purpose would it serve to destroy the border and allow a flood of illegals to cross many infected with very communicable diseases which have and are killing children and adults in America today?  What purpose other than the ‘fundamental transformation America’ and stripping her of her sovereignty forcing her to become part of the ‘global citizenry’ under control of a centralized world organization such as the United Nations.  As an American, veteran, patriot, and Christian the potential of that eventuality deeply angers and concerns me.

When this administration ‘refuses’ to restrict flights from Ebola stricken West Africa and states that one of his major responsibilities is to protect Africa I am shocked and concerned.  With the knowledge and information we have held for many years we know some of the nukes from the old Soviet Union have fallen into the hands of terrorist, the continued rise of groups such as ISIS and the feeble response this administration has given this, I am concerned.  When terrorist declare they are at war with the United States of America and will fly their flag over the White House and there is only ‘push back’ from this president is against aggressive and definitive action, I am concerned.  When there is the refusal to call ISIS Islamic terrorism or even Islam and the continual appeasement of Islamic nations and peoples while trashing our friends such as Israel and placing Americans in harm’s way, I am concerned.

Blog Post - Threat

 We have been told by the Secretaries of Defense and State, the DOJ, HLS, and the White House that our greatest threat is Climate Change rather than these real and avowed enemies, I am concerned.  When we are told that Ebola either will not come to America and if it does it will be no problem and yet we are seen repeated demonstrations of lack of preparedness or ability to handle it and keep it from spreading, I am concerned.  When a person who was at ground zero with the Ebola patient from Liberia in Dallas and had a low grade fever was told it was okay to fly from Cleveland to Dallas thereby potentially infecting the passengers, crew, and whomever they might then come in contact with, I am concerned.

Over sixteen years ago I had a vision (now some will label me a kook) but it was real and documented that before 9/11 that I saw destruction in American cities.  I saw chaos and a scene that appeared taken from a WWII movie of Europe after repeated bombings.  I saw things regarding the church and the conditions of America.  I did not and do not know exactly how it happened but saw troops in the streets wearing uniforms not of the American military.  Couple that with the actions and words of this president here and around the world, the massive amassing of ammunition by government agencies, reports of portable coffins/caskets or whatever they are that are large enough to hold multiple people and their existence is not denied but spun as just normal operations.  When some former agents report that FEMA has been preparing for a number of years for massive civil unrest and large numbers of Americans dying, I am concerned. 

 If this were a military action  to attack our enemy I would not want media coverage until AFTER THE FACT but Ebola is an infectious deadly disease and we need real information even if it is ‘we do not know’ but their argument is that if they tell us the full story there will be panic in the streets.  Maybe, but by hiding facts and giving misinformation they are endangering hundreds, thousands, and maybe millions of American lives so I say the danger of panic is outweighed by the need to be WELL INFORMED so we can attempt to protect ourselves.  Tragically this president has sent troops to Africa to fight Ebola and now is leaning toward sending the National Guard.  ARE YOU SERIOUS???

Blog Post - Chaos

CHAOS IS COMING!  When?  I do not know.  Will Obama and the left use something like Ebola to take total control?  I do not know but it concerns me.  I wish I did not distrust our government like I do but they have demonstrated such an untrustworthiness I cannot trust them.  We face a clear and present danger and it is coming from within as much as from without!  We could do something to help stem this tide of Ebola, terror, and other diseases but the Democrats nor Republicans seem willing to challenge the man in the White House.  That will, I fear, lead to a catastrophic situation in America that will receive heavy military and police action.

            God help us!  May God bless you and may God bless America!

POLITICAL PROSTITUTION……


Blog Post - Campaign Costs

From time to time there will be some scandal or uncovering of an elected official obtaining the services of someone engaged in what is called the ‘oldest profession’.  The self-righteous diatribe that ensues is often laughable and the motivation evident.  The outrage or outcry depends on which side of the aisle one hangs their hat.  The media will become fierce watchdogs when it is a conservative or Republican and virtually silent and disinterested when it is a liberal or Democrat.  When activism is conducted from the bench based rooted in political ideology and often as a reward for the appointment that is, at best, an activity akin to the ‘world’s oldest profession’ politically.

As a moral society some things are or should be offensive and that includes the indiscretions of public figures, violating marriage vows, and otherwise showing lack of moral fiber.  Yet, I am outraged by a different kind of indiscretion and that is what I would call ‘Political Prostitution’.  Why are we upset when a politician engages the services of a ‘lady of the night’ or ‘man of the night’ as the case might be and not offended when politicians ‘sell their souls’ for money and power.

Blog Post - Political Prostitution

Prostitution as defined in the dictionary is:  ‘the practice or occupation of engaging in sexual activity with someone for payment.’  A sub definition is:  “the unworthy or corrupt use of one’s talents for the sake of personal or financial gain.”  If we embark armed with that definition then the ‘influence peddlers’ of Washington, DC who solicit the elected officials with campaign contributions, donations to various causes, PAC’s or the providing of influence and power promises are seeking PROSTITUTES and the elected official successful solicited is engaging in POLITICAL PROSTITUTION.   In many cases it does not seem to be illegal and in most cases seems to be viewed as just part of what happens in Washington. 

When the elected official sells his vote for money, influence, or power is that not PROSTITUTION?  It is a violation of the spirit and intent of our founding fathers in their drafting of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.  It violates the sacred trust promised to the constituents who voted for this individual and is akin to break the marriage vows, in my view.  I do not place elected officials on the same level as marriage but you see the analogy.  I am not anti-corporations but am anti-bribery and the POLITICAL PROSTITUTION that those in DC engage in regularly is nothing short of bribery and those participating should be held accountable by the voters if not by the law but they seldom are.

Blog Post - Core Values

We can pass all the laws we want and it will not control it.  It goes to the moral makeup of the individual and the willingness of voters to JUST SAY NO to any politician who practices it.  We have not seen much of that and while Congress has attempted to gain some control in the past, largely superficial it has not and will not change until WE THE PEOPLE show them the door.  In 1907 we had the Tillman Act of 1907 which was an attempt to prevent ‘legalized bribery’ (political prostitution) and in the not too distant past we had the so-called Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act known as (McCain-Feingold).  Corruption will not become incorruption via legislation but has to come from ‘core values’ within the heart and mind of the individual.

We the voters are the injured party.  The politicians and the ‘money’ are guilty of political prostitution.  I have watched as someone will campaign on a platform of integrity and being a public servant only to watch their metamorphosis into a Political Prostitute and sell themselves to the highest bidder.  Oh, they may keep it on the down low but we see it and if you look carefully at their votes and where the money comes from members of Congress on both sides of the aisle are GUILTY.

Blog Post - Enough

I’m fed up with their lack of fidelity and blatant deception.  I would love to see a concerted effort by the voters to rid the halls of Congress of those who participate in political prostitution and it would not take many election cycles until they got the message.  Is that likely?  NO!  But it is a thought that brings a smile to my face as I think of the possibility.

Remember November and remember you are America!   May God bless you and may God bless America!

FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION OR PLANNED DESTRUCTION???


Blog Post - Obama

When president elect Barack Obama announced to his followers and the world that we were just a few days away from the ‘fundamental transformation of America’ many of us heard those words with great trepidation.  Some danced in the streets over what they believed would be the radicalization of America to the point that fundamental conservative values would be eradicated and the golden goose providing their all would be ushered in.  I personally felt a twinge in my spirit that the desire was not ‘transformation’ it was ‘destruction’ of America that was the objective.  I believe that the events of the last six years prove that concern correct.

Blog Post - Muslim Outreach    Shortly after taking office Mr. Obama instructed NASA to take steps to make the Muslim nations and people feel better about themselves.  I thought what has NASA to do with the Muslim world unless it is the connection to ‘Moon Worship’ which Mr. Obama would be fully aware of.  I still do not know the full reasoning behind this directive but it is one of many that we have observed.

Mr. Obama went on what has been labeled the ‘apology tour’ to the Muslim world and much of the world diminishing our heritage and lamenting as to the inherent evilness of America from its founding.  Oh, I know he did not say all that in exact words but the message was there and that is exactly how it was received by those who hate America.  They felt they had a friend in the White House that would facilitate their desired objective of taking down America as a world superpower and it appears they were right on the friend part.

With the forcing of things like the Stimulus that George W. Bush was duped into being a part of and the Affordable Health Care Act (Obama-care) telling Republicans elections have consequences and refusing to allow them in the room to discuss the plans or details we began to see the pattern of dismantling of our economy, national security, and constitutional liberties.  Mr. Obama promised to have the ‘most transparent’ administration in history and unless you call ‘deception, lies, deviousness, and ideological destruction’ transparency his has been anything but transparent.  He has filled his administration with Czars that have cabinet level authority and access without having to go through Senate confirmation.  He has filled his cabinet positions with people who have a questionable history at best including Muslims who have clear connections to terrorist organizations and jihadist.

Blog Post - Obama JobsSince Mr. Obama’s first inauguration we have seen about 12 Million Americans leave the workforce with fewer Americans working than in April of 2000 and the population has expanded by over 30 Million.  Those not participating in the work force have continued to escalate, government has expanded and somehow magically the unemployment rate has dropped using calculations that do not count those out of work and not retired or disabled.  If all were counted the rate would be nearer 15% than 6% as is being reported. The food stamp rolls have increased, welfare escalated, disability expanded.

We have the IRS targeting those of differing political values than this administration, Benghazi, NSA spying on citizens, refusal to identify acts of terror as such calling them workplace violence’ or some other term and insisting that we cater to the Islamic world while showing no compassion or consideration for the Christian faith or our friends in the nation of Israel.  The EPA has been and is being used to so regulate and stifle private citizens and business that we are rapidly moving to a world in which it is illegal to breathe without a government permit.  (Overstatement acknowledged or is it?)  We have a justice department that has demonstrated an incredible racial bias in the prosecution of lack thereof of criminal cases including voter intimidation by the New Black Panthers.

This president called ISIS or ISIL the JV and not a problem.  He declared that Ebola would not come to America and both have been proven wrong.  He has eliminated our border with his directives to ICE, Border Patrol, and other law enforcement agencies which has created a National Security situation that should send chills down the spine of every America.  We are in grave danger as a nation not of being ‘fundamentally transformed’ but ‘completely destroyed from within.’

Blog Posst - Thomas Paine             Now, the left wants us to accept Hillary Rodham Clinton as the next president a woman who is possibly more of an Alinskyite than Mr. Obama.  Sorry, ‘What difference does it make now?” is not the person I want as president and the person who would complete the ultimate destruction of our Constitutional Republic.  I CANNOT ACCEPT THAT WITHOUT A FIGHT!  Some of my friends chide me for speaking out politically as a Christian but I ask, “If I see danger and destruction and fail to warn of it is that not sin?”   The Bible clearly says that a person that knows to do well and does not do it has sinned.

So I plead with you to REMEMBER NOVEMBER and be involved in the attempted preservation or restoration of America as a Constitutional Republic.  Much is at stake and silence is not golden it is surrender in this case.

            God bless you and God bless America!

THE SHADOW AND HAND OF SAUL ALINSKY IN AMERICA TODAY….


Blog Post - Saul Alynsky    I would venture to say that few, if any, have rivaled the impact that Saul Alinsky has had on American politics especially those on the left.  He, like the Fabian Socialist, was confident of victory and astoundingly patient understanding that the implementation and adoption of his ideology would not be quick.  They and their disciples, like nature cutting a path through a mountain persist in the never ending pursuit of the brass ring of the destruction of Capitalism, America and any nation that even remotely follows any democratic form of government.

The two most prolific disciples of Saul Alinsky in America politics today are Barack H. Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton.  One is president and the other desires to be.  The disaster of the Obama presidency should be enough to send up red flags over a possible Hillary presidency.  Bill Clinton was a politician who changed his stripes to maintain power but did not overtly seek to overthrow the American system.  That is not the case with Barack Obama nor would it be under a President Hillary Clinton.  She would not only continue Obama’s course but press it further to the left stripping the constitution of its power, relegating Congress to meaningless figureheads, and pollute the courts with their ideologues as appointees.  America may survive eight years of Obama but it cannot survive even four more years under Clinton.  WE MUST STOP THIS NOW!

Blog Post - Alinsky Disciple HillarySaul Alinsky was not just a socialist and anti-capitalist but a devious driven man willing to do ANYTHING to achieve his objective, the destruction of the American System.  He was a native of Chicago (where else).  He taught his disciples that their course of action was to infiltrate and change from within the system and that meant infiltrating churches, schools, and political parties.  His followers have done all three with amazing effectiveness and still many have no clue who Alinsky was and what his disciples truly believe and desire.

Saul Alinsky formed an alliance with influential Catholic clerics including Bishop Bernard Sheil.  He associated and formed a friendship with Al Capone’s second-in-command Frank Nitti which afforded him power and immunity on many levels.  Alinsky developed supporters and funders with names like Eugene Meyer, Chairman of the Federal Reserve 1930-33 and owned the Washington Post giving Alinsky positive press.  In fact President Truman fell prey to this propaganda when Agnes Meyer wrote a six-part series praising Alinsky for his work in the Chicago slums.

Blog Post - Alinsky and LBJHe infiltrated the Democrat Party even more powerfully under LBJ, became friends and allies with Senator Robert Kennedy via Hugo Chavez.  He recruited a high school student named Hillary Rodham who met him through her church group and they remained fast friends until Alinsky’s death in 1972.  Her senior thesis at Wellesley was about the Alinsky model and methods.  Saul Alinsky was so confident in his ability to persuade that he once claimed, “I feel confident that I could persuade a millionaire on a Friday to subsidize a revolution for Saturday out of which he would make a huge profit on Sunday even though he was certain to be executed on Monday.”    

            We dare not forget Alinsky’s commentLest we forget at least an over the shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology and history (and who is to now where mythology leaves off and history begins – or which is which), the very first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom – Lucifer.”  (Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realistic Radicals)

Blog Post - Obama Alinksy DiscipleBarack Obama was trained by the Industrial Areas Foundation (an Alinsky entity) and was a community organizer teaching the Alinsky methods in Chicago for four years.  He like Alinsky and Clinton believe and practice camouflage.  They hide what they are doing and work behind the scenes even using distractions to divert attention and scrutiny for their real efforts.  We are witnessing that today and it will not dissipate under Hillary but escalate.  Their desired objective is the complete dismantling and replacement of the Constitutional System that America was founded upon and operates.  When Obama was criticized in his early career for not attending church he found the most radical and racist congregation he could find under Jeremiah Wright and began attending.

If we are to salvage America as a Constitutional Republic and wrest power from the hands of the despots and ideologues who want to ‘fundamentally transform’ her from what she was designed to be into something other than a Constitutional Republic WE MUST BECOME INVOLVED.   Chide me if you will and tell me that nothing we do matters and I will say, ‘Tell that to the colonist in 1776’ and ‘Tell that to the nation of Israel in their continual struggles to survive.’  NO, what we do matters and the only hope we have of saving America is ACTION.

May God help us, bless us, guide us, and may He bless America again!

FECKLESS – – Perfect Descriptor of the Obama Administration…..


Blog Post - Feckless TrioIf you research the definition of feckless’ you will find “lacking initiative or strength of character; irresponsible….. Worthless, having no sense of responsibility; indifferent; lazy” Now I must ask, “Are those not appropriate in describing this presidency?”  I heard someone say recently regarding Mr. Obama, “I wouldn’t call him lazy but if he were a cow he wouldn’t swish his tail to rid himself of a fly.”   The synonyms listed include:  useless, worthless, incompetent, inept, good-for-nothing, ne’er-do-well, slothful, indolent, and shiftless.  WOW!  Perfect descriptors of this administration although I will readily acknowledge that he is far from incompetent when it comes to advancing his ‘fundamentally transform’ America ideology.  He is competent and dangerous on that front and that is bad for America.

Blog Post - Hillary Feckless           Edward Klein wrote in his book, “Blood Feud” that Hillary in a boozed rant said she had spent four draining years in his administration.  She went on to say, “The thing with Obama is that he can’t be bothered, and there is no hand on the tiller half the time.  (Profanities omitted).”  Hillary further declared that Obama has turned into a joke and ranted about his hatred for his enemies, in the various scandals, to screw him like it did Nixon. She then stated that Mr. Obama was, “incompetent and feckless.”   She declared that Obama’s word is not worth bleep.  Hillary I agree but what makes you think you’d do better or be better?  Another story for another time I guess.

Jimmy Carter’s fundamental errors in policy and judgment hardly compare to the ‘fecklessness’ of Barack Obama, in my opinion.  Carter and Obama are both ideologically disillusioned and advanced their policies based on a flawed foundation.  If you begin with a wrong premise you will arrive at a wrong conclusion and that describes both their administrations.  In 1977 Jimmy Carter spoke at Notre Dame University and dismissed what he identified as ‘our inordinate fear of communism’.  He believed that if America demonstrated restraint and made concessions the Soviets would reciprocate.  WRONG!  Thus we came to the Iran hostage crisis in November 1979 because of his ill-guided views and foreign policy.

Obama - Can't Be Bothered      I am convinced that Mr. Obama’s indecisiveness, indifference, and outright abandonment of our friends along with his apparent deep desire to placate the Muslim world has opened the door and invited aggression throughout the world. That is evidenced in Russia’s operations in the Ukraine, the Islamic terrorist activity including the beheadings of Americans, and his trading Taliban leaders for a soldier who was apparently a deserter and a Muslim sympathizer.  The world burns and Obama vacations, fund raises, and plays golf.  Hillary was right he can’t be bothered.

Blog Post - Mind Closed           Before his first election, Harvard University professor Joseph Nye said, “It is difficult to think of any single act that would do more to restore America’s soft power than the election of Obama to the presidency.”   Amazing and now after six years it is difficult to think of a single act that has done more to damage America’s standing and power in the world than the presidency of Barack Obama.  The hubris of Barack Obama and his fantasy world view is placing America in greater and graver danger each passing day.  ‘Feckless’ is probably too mild a word but the only one I will use regarding this president.

I know that many feel that voting is a waste of time for they are convinced that the elections are all rigged and the outcome predetermined so why bother.  I am not willing to take that fatalistic view and suggest that we fully vet each candidate, volunteer to be poll watchers, work in the precincts, and VOTE.  Failure to exercise our constitutional right at the polls is to concede defeat and that I CANNOT and WILL NOT!  America needs her patriots more today than possibly any time in our history.  Again I sound the clarion call – REMEMBER NOVEMBER!  We must utilize all tools available to us to fight this fight for freedom and the restoration of a Constitutional Republic.

            God bless you and God bless America!

ENDANGERING AMERICA FOR WHAT????


Blog Post - Transformation       I mean that as a serious question but let me elucidate.  I could approach this from numerous categories but the one in particular that I am referring to is the elimination of our southern border allowing the free flow of illegals into our country.  Those illegals are not just coming from Mexico, Central and South America but the far reaches of the globe including the Middle East.  This, in my view, is an incredibly dangerous situation to place America and Americans in but one that this president and the left seem hell-bent on continuing until the ILLEGALS are declared LEGAL and our border no longer exists.

 If those coming across the border manage to smuggle a dirty bomb or some other weapon of mass destruction into our country it will then be relatively easy for them to carry out a terrorist act that would be catastrophic in size and scope.  The surface objective of the erasure of our border seems to be to permanently solidify the Democrat Party with voters but the deeper objective may well be the destruction of America and most assuredly the ‘fundamental transformation’ of her as promised by Barack H. Obama.  It seems to be a fishing expedition for VOTES and I would ask at what cost?  If there is a terrorist attack and I should probably say when there is a terrorist attack it is highly likely that American lives will be lost.  Therefore in a real sense this is an endeavor to trade American lives for Democrat votes and I find that not just reprehensible, immoral, and evil but criminal.

Blog Post - Cost of Amnesty            If we were to calculate the cost of these ILLEGALS to the American taxpayer it would be in the TRILLIONS and over the long haul it will be multiplied exponentially. The strain on our economy, school systems, transportation, healthcare industry and more will be astronomical forcing a radical transformation of virtually all sectors of society to accommodate them.  Sadly, we are not talking about them being assimilated into our society but our society being forced to adapt to them allowing those current ILLEGALS to live without having learn our language, laws, and adapt.  No, the politically correct push for ‘tolerance’ demands that we change not them.  What other country does that?  Certainly not the ones they are coming from.

ILLEGAL is ILLEGAL and you cannot successfully spin it or define it to be anything different.  When the federal government facilitates the breaking of our existing laws it engenders a society in which the law is meaningless and that is an incredibly dangerous condition.  The intense push for ‘gun control’ and governmental control in so many other areas of our society further places American lives in danger.  Common sense should tell us that with the evidence existing in this nation of violent gangs, especially in major cities, if we cannot protect ourselves we will likely become become victims.

Blog Post - Lives for Votes     This president, who laments the existence of a restrictive constitution and reviles anyone who disagrees with him, has placed America in a very dangerous situation.  Sadly, millions who are receiving their monthly allotment from Big Brother are content to trade freedom, liberty, and national security for a check.  What happens when the total collapse comes and with the path we are currently on, it is coming?  We could literally see cannibalism in America’s cities and most assuredly will see wide sweeping rioting, looting, and chaos.  Anarchy is coming to America if we do not turn the tide and regain control.  The establishment elitist of both parties has demonstrated that they will not support a return to Constitutional government so we must defeat the establishment and that is a monumental task that cannot be done in one election cycle and will cost some of us everything.  How much is freedom, liberty, and the Republic worth to you and how much are we willing to invest for future generations?

The task is before us, what shall we do?  What will we do?  Will we wait until it is too late to take action?  We must answer those questions individually and collectively.   America needs her patriots today as much as she needed them in 1776.

            God bless you and God bless America!

LIPSTICK ON A PIG DOES NOT MAKE IT A DEBUTANTE….


Blog Post - Pig          In August the late Abu Mosa declared, “I say to America that Islamic Caliphate has been established.  And we will not stop.  Don’t be cowards and attack us with drones.  Instead send your soldiers, the ones we humiliated in Iraq.  We will humiliate them everywhere, God willing, and we will raise the flag of Allah in the White House.”  They have declared war on the United States, beheaded American citizens in a horrific execution demonstrating utter disregard for human life and for America declaring that we are their ‘chief enemy’.  Yet, Mr. Obama says that we are not at war with them.  If someone is punching you in the face you can say we are not fighting but a bloody nose, black eyes, and bruises still happen as they continue to pulverize your face.  No, sometimes you have to step up and bring the game to them!

Blog Post - Religion of Peace            I keep hearing that Islam is a religion of peace’ and that there are many Muslims that do not believe what is called the tenets of Radical Islam’ so I have considered that and come to a conclusion.  There are millions of people who claim to be Muslim and follow Islam that have never read the Qur’an and do not speak Arabic.  They do not truly know what is in the Qur’an and those that do know that what we call ‘radical’ is ‘normal’,fundamental’ and simply following the teachings and approach of their prophet Muhammad.

 Muhammad was apparently a very strange and some would argue deranged character.  His supposed encounter with an angel of God and ascension to the status of prophet and founder of Islam was, in part, at the encouragement of his wife and other family members.  He believed that a demon had inspired him to quote many of the things he put in would put in his Qur’an and these family members convinced him it was an angel of God and he was a prophet.  He was right and they were wrong, but that’s my opinion.  Some of the oddities and problems with Muhammad being a man of God include the likelihood that he would dress up in women’s clothes and the clothes of his child bride and claim to receive revelations through that activity.  He had sexual relations with a nine (9) year old girl and his wife Aisha was apparently only about six (6) when he married her and in my book having sex with a nine year old makes him a pedophile.  He advocated killing those who would not convert and so many things about this individual make him someone that a rational person could never receive spiritual guidance from but millions follow his teachings or the religion he founded.

As to the claim that there are people who are Muslim that do not believe what the theology of the jihadist that does not make Islam is a religion of peace.  Not knowing what is in their ‘book’ of a religion does not change its foundational and fundamental theology.  There are millions who identify themselves as Christians who have never read the Bible and have no idea what it really teaches.  Just being raised in a home that attended church no more makes you a Christian than visiting a hospital would make one a doctor or visiting a garage makes one a mechanic.  I have ridden on airplanes but that doesn’t make me a pilot.  No, those who know the teachings of the prophet Muhammad know that the so-called radicals are not being radical but simply following the teachings of their founder.

Blog Post - Islam            Let me give you one example from their book‘I shall cast terror into the hearts of those who are bent on denying the truth; strike, then, their necks, and strike off every one of their finger-tips.’  Qu’ran 8:12   Does that sound like peace?  Prior to 9/11 three things were required for the terrorist to carry out their act in flying the planes into the Twin Towers in New York.  Al Qaeda needed a safe haven’, ‘state support’, and a lax immigration policy’ which they had.  ISIS is far better served on all three points than Al Qaeda was Pre-9/11 and to say they are not a threat is to be naïve at best.  Are they a threat?  They say they are and have cells in Mexico if not in the United States and there are thousands if not millions in our own land that cheer their activities.

Blog Post - Flag         America if we do not wake up and stop trying to put lipstick on pigs and call them Debutantes we are going to pay a very high price for our willing blindness, faux tolerance, and political correctness.  It is time to identify terror for what it is and stop calling evil good and good evil.  Today I remember the horrific act of evil committed against America and Americans on 9/11 and my heart goes out to the families of the victims and I salute all the first responders who survived and did a spectacular job.  I also pay homage to the men and women in the military for the outstanding job they have done even in the face of an administration that hamstrings them on every turn.  God bless our troops!

            God help us wake up, stand up, and speak up.  God bless America!

A NOVEL NEW IDEA…..


 

Blog Post - Life Liberty

I want to suggest that we, in America, adopt a novel new idea that men are equal, free, and endowed with certain unalienable rights by God Himself.  I suggest that we determine that government is responsible and accountable to the governed not vice versa.  What a Novel New Idea!  Wait, it is not new at all but is the core belief stated in the Declaration of Independence and provided the foundation for our Constitution in America.  It found expression in 1776 in the Declaration of Independence and should still resonate today to all freedom loving people regardless of political affiliation.

 Blog Post - Declaration

 

In the Declaration of Independence we read these words:

             “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights that among those are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.  That to secure those rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness.”

             The unalienable rights are not solely ‘life, liberty,’ and the ‘pursuit of happiness’ they are INCLUDED.  Government’s function is to SECURE those rights not take them away, usurp them, abuse them, or abolish them.  Government IS NOT to command and dictate to the people in tyrannical micromanagement but to always recognize and operate in such a manner as to acknowledge that their power and authority is ONLY that given by WE THE PEOPLE.  Government MUST always be made to realize we not they own the government and should it overstep its bounds and become something other than that declared in the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, and Bill of Rights we can, should, and will resist, alter and/or abolish it and form new government established on those principles and ideals.  It is WE not some oligarchical aristocracy that owns the government.  It is time we and they understand this and have it communicated to them in no uncertain terms.

Today, should our Founding Fathers be present men like Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Paine, and Patrick Henry would be calling for a revolution to abolish this oligarchy of elitist and return the true power to the citizens and force government to operate within its means and constitutional bounds legitimately.  They would demand that the Executive Branch follow the law, the constitution, and recognize and submit to the checks and balances of the Constitution.  They would demand that Congress do its constitutional duty and hold a rogue Executive Branch accountable for its indiscretions with regard to both the Law and the Constitution.  They would demand that WE THE PEOPLE become involved and make our voice heard throughout the land at the polls and in whatever manner is required to restore, protect, and defend the Constitutional Republic and its Constitution.

 Blog Post - We The People

            We can excuse our inaction and in our silence give implied consent to the lawlessness of an overreaching federal government.  It is only as concerned citizens become involved and informed that the Constitutional Republican form of Government works.  When we grow silent and complacent an oligarchy forms which evolves into a tyrannical dictatorship as history has witnessed in various regions of the world.  If Freedom is precious to us we must return to that Novel New Idea that was neither novel nor new but has its roots back to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.  God not man makes us Free!  God not man gives us the right to ‘life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.’  How much is Freedom worth to you?  

             I challenge you to become involved and use a cliché – REMEMBER NOVEMBER!  America needs you!  God bless you and God bless America!
