The year I turned 16, my older brother hired me to work on his harvester crew. Not yet at their zenith, Salyer Land Co. farmed a little more than 50,000 acres at the time. They operated seven International Harvester brand combines, and fourteen John Deere combines just to keep up with their own in-house harvesting needs. My brother was a foreman over one of the company’s three crews of seven combines.

The Salyer farming enterprise was started by a notorious old cob, Clarence “Cockeye” Salyer. By the time I went to work for them, it was called Salyer Land Co., and was owned by Cockeye’s two sons, C. Everette, and Fred Salyer, and I believe a sister whom I never met. Everette was President of the company, and Fred ran field operations. Fred and Everette were industrious perfectionists, so everything about Slayer Land Co. was the epitome of farming excellence.

Their land was immaculate. The ground was level, clear of weeds, well drained, fertilized, cultivated, and drained to precise scientific standards. Their equipment was maintained to the same high standards as their farmland. They had a private airport and a massive machine shop that was the envy of many a large equipment manufacturer. A fleet of low-bed semi trucks, massive crane trucks, and large service trucks populated local roads moving large and small equipment from field to field, and insuring every fuel tank, bearing, zerk, tire and door hinge were serviced, topped off, and/or in constant good repair.

One day, I found myself alone in a Salyer field on the west side of the Tulare lakebed near Kettleman City. As memory serves, I was knocking down borders in a field we were about to move into with our harvester crew. When lunchtime rolled around, I wheeled into a service area, which was nothing more than a hundred yard square piece of graded dirt adjacent to the grain field I was working in. There are no trees in that part of the country, but an anhydrous ammonia semi trailer was parked in the service area and promised a little shade from the hot desert sun of the western San Joaquin Valley.

Like all of Salyer’s equipment, the trailer, which was really just a giant pressurized tank with wheels and fenders attached, was in perfect condition, including an immaculate coat of bright white paint, which made the shade it provided seem cooler than it really was. I settled in on the shady side of the trailer and leaned against the trailer’s large semi-truck tire, grateful for the shade during the fifteen minutes I would take to devour my sack lunch, and an almost cool can of Coca-Cola.

Promptly digging into my brown paper sack for the sandwich my Mom had packed for me, I bit into the white bread, and my taste buds began to contemplate the pleasure of sliced ham and mayonnaise. The pleasure was short lived, as my world suddenly exploded into abject chaos! The first thing that hit me was the ear shattering sound that was something like the squall of a fighter jet when the afterburners kick in. I probably would have remained several seconds in motionless shock, not knowing what to do if the tire I was leaning against had not begun to vibrate and bounce off the ground.

I don’t remember what happened to my sandwich, or whatever else was in my brown paper lunch sack that day, but all was likely crushed in the flurry of flailing limbs that ensued as I scrambled to take flight as fast as my feet would carry me, from what I imagined to be an exploding ammonia tank. After gaining some distance while looking over my shoulder, the white plume jetting over 100 feet into the air stopped as quickly as it had started and all signs of the bright white vapor were gone within seconds, having dissipated into the atmosphere.

The tank had never been in danger exploding, but the pressure relief valve on top had released excess pressure resulting from the hot sun heating the contents of the over-full tank of liquid ammonia. By now, you must be wondering what blow off from a tank of anhydrous ammonia has to do with anything.

…Well my friends, I may not be popular for saying this, but I believe more than ever after today, that Fox News is not our friend. Even though we often think of it as the lone conservative voice in our national mainstream media, things are not that simple. And Fox News is not entirely what it presents itself to be.

Fox news is an organ of the same betrayal media that has stolen our free Republic from us, and more importantly, now threatens to enslave America’s posterity for many generations to come. If we do not stop this march to communism NOW, our children and grandchildren will never enjoy the liberty established by the Founding Fathers, the liberty we have enjoyed all of our lives …the liberty of Our America!

I’m sure that Glenn Beck and Shaun Hannity are sincere in what they do, but they too have merely been sucked in as pawns. Fox News is nothing but a pressure relief valve like the one on top of that anhydrous ammonia tank that I encountered as a young farm hand. Fox’s mission is to keep a country, choking on progressive socialism, from exploding. Fox makes us feel warm and fuzzy, as if we are getting somewhere, as if we have a friend on our side — we do not.

Megyn Kelly, Shepard Smith, Greta Van Susteren, and others coyly mitigate any advantage gained in the hand full of Fox conservatives. If you doubt my words, consider Megyn’s gleeful reporting of Obama’s gains during the election, or Greta’s hit pieces on Palin disguised as friendly visits, but in reality used extensively by the opposition to paint Palin as an unqualified cheerleader from Alaska. Where were the fair and balanced hours scouring Biden’s hometown, and interviewing his sophisticated enemies on one hand, and his unsophisticated friends in contrast?

Shepard Smith’s reading of letters this morning, from viewers opposing Obama, and then comparing them, and all of us who think Obama is a socialist in the same ilk as the white supremist who went on a rampage at the Holocaust Museum in Washington today was unconscionable. Shepard Smith did not perform his Keith Olbermann impersonation without the network’s approval. Obama is the worst enemy Jews, as a people have faced since Hitler. Yet Fox News has maligned the greater part of their audience as being in league with white supremists.

My fellow Americans, please do not be appeased by this pressure relief valve. This is what they want. They want our anger diffused and for us to feel cowed down by the Fox News wolves in sheep’s clothing. We cannot fall for it. Until we start relying on our own God given wisdom, and take charge again of our own self-governance, we will not win back a thing.

We must mobilize to clean out all of Washington, get rid of all of Congress and the Senate, and put a patriotic Natural Born American in the white house, and then we can begin the long march to recovery. Until we do that, we are only marching ever closer to Soviet style communism, complete with cronyism and appointed, not elected influence. Under the Obama dictatorship, we can expect an ever-growing lower class, and a narrowing scope of ruling elite.

Obama is not an American in my view. He is a foreign-born imposter, and having taken the oath of office, is a traitor to that to which he has sworn allegiance. The mainstream media aid and abet the OCS assault upon our liberty, Fox included, not withstanding what little relief we get from the pop-off effect it serves.

I hope I’m wrong about Fox News, but I don’t think so. Tell me what you think.

Personally, I wish Joannemor would just shut up! Jo Anne is a blogger with whom most here are familiar. She posts long articles and blogs endlessly, some might say, “conspiring,” with her right wing cronies about all things political.

You see the problem is, Jo Anne distracts me from important things like… well, TV, movies, sports, video games, and from concentrating on important decisions like, which new gadget I will purchase so I can Twitter about, “Someone blogged something bad about me, and I’m going to convince the world that I was right, and they were wrong.”

…OK …by now, you probably know you’ve been hoodwinked. I really don’t want Joannemor to shut up… quite the opposite in fact! I want to thank Jo Anne and admonish all of us to pay more attention to what she and other well-informed bloggers have to say.

It’s easy to get caught up in the emotions of opposing opinions, but we need to pay attention to the real risks of our predicament, or we are going to lose our great country, and the freedom it secures. Digressing to fighting and insults as we often encounter from the other camp, is not productive. It is merely a tactic of distraction from the Obamacorn crowd.

“Manners are more important than laws. Upon them, in a great measure, the laws depend. Manners are what vex or soothe, corrupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarize or refine us… According to their quality, they aid morals… or they totally destroy them.” ~Edmund Burke as quoted by John Howard 4/26/07 Liberty Revisited

So please Jo Anne, do not shut up! Do not allow your voice to be muted in the least! Rather, please keep posting, and ignore the detractors who would insult you for your superior intelligence and well informed opinions. They do it because distraction is the only weapon they have against truth.

To all of my good friends who like Jo Anne, also write tirelessly, the battle is joined, and we cannot leave the field to the MSM and other usefull idiots. Ignore them, and plod on undestracted. At some time, we will reach a tipping point where the tides of fortune shift again in Liberty’s favor.

In the mean time, every word written opposing the present Marxist administration, and supporting American ideals instead, has the potential of being the straw that tips the scales of justices and puts us on the road back to a free United States of America.  

“We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it.  We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government; upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.” ~President James Madison

There are experts, pundits, and bloggers as thick as fleas who write at length about theories, and economic models that show deficit spending is the way to economic recovery. They say we should fall in among them like so many sheep, and praise Obama’s spending frenzy as if condemning future generations to the slavery of indebtedness were the miracle of turning water into wine.

Contrary to popular myth, the most remarkable economic recovery in the country’s history did not come about because of the spending spree conducted by FDR. No, Roosevelt was simply continuing the failed policies of his predecessor, Herbert Chicken in Every Pot Hoover, just as Obama is continuing many of the failed economic policies of George Bush.

The second myth is that the economy and the country were saved by WWII, but that really is not right either, at least as far as the economy goes. The war only provided Americans with the resolve to unite for the common good. When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, and invaded the Philippines, Americans stopped waiting for FDR to send the government to save them, and went to work saving themselves, while the government turned its attention to sending our boys “Over There” to save Europe and the Orient.

At that critical time, we did not try to increase consumer spending, but rather, we rationed everything that was not already only available in limited supply. We stopped buying cars, tires, gas, women’s hosiery, and almost anything classified as food or consumer goods. We rationed our resources and pulled in our economic horns in every way imaginable. Many Americans worked two jobs; often one of those jobs without pay as volunteers to help others in need, or to support the war effort.

In the previous installment of this series, I talked about how it was not government or the war, but the American people who brought economic recovery to our country during the forties and fifties. The American people worked in a unified effort to survive economic hardship, and to defend our liberty. I said that instead of looking for a check from the government, we loaned money to the government in the form of war bonds. In fact, during WWII, when the average American family earned a mere $2,600.00 Per Year, Americans purchased an astonishing $185.7 billion in U.S. War Bonds.

I also told you about a group of heroes, and promised to tell you what all of it has to do with economic recovery today …and so I shall. This coming May, a dwindling group of Veterans will meet in San Antonio, Texas for the last such gathering of its kind, ever. I can imagine when the convention of the American Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor* ends on May 30, 2009, there will be soulful tears for some, as they gaze upon the deeply carved faces of cherished friends and say goodbye. Due to their advanced age, and compromised state of health, some of our heroes will indeed be parting forever, from their Comrades in Arms, the only other living souls who ever really understood what these former POW’s endured at the hands of the enemy, and their own neglectful government.

More about our heroes in a moment, but for now we must recognize that the first order of business in saving our country is to slow or stop the Obama Crime Syndicate, if we can. The enemy now is within the gates and must be deposed in effect or in fact, before it is too late. In everything they do, from pillaging our national treasury, to stifling our freedom, they must be stopped. They must not be allowed to turn terrorists from Guantanamo Bay loose onto our streets, giving them taxpayer-funded stipends, as recently suggested, and they must be stopped from all further collusion with the enemy.

That is a tall order now that the, communist regime in all but name, is seated, but we should not despair. America is far from defeated. We are a determined people, and while the OCS has been busy destroying our economy and our liberty through liberal and socialist policies, millions of Americans have been noisily collaborating while quietly and instinctively preparing. We have set aside cash, supplies, liquid assets, and have purchased weapons and ammunition at record rates. Most Americans understand that self-sufficiency is the key to survival, not FEMA, or a government check.

We must continue sharing information, and mounting pressure through public forums and protests such as Tea Parties, and We Surround Them gatherings, but there is more we can do right now to counter the sellout of American jobs and American liberty. We must take care to turn our words into tangible force and not fall into mere hyperbole.

Things have already not gone as expected by Obama, and as the OCS becomes more desperate, the pressure on Obama, as its figurehead, will cause him to make more mistakes, further exposing his ineptitude and enraging the American people at the same time. We do not have to vanquish the march to communism at once, but we only need to exert enough force to favorably shift the odds in favor of our Constitutional Society, and against the Obama agenda.

To stop jobs from being exported, we must quit contributing to the Trade Deficit by resisting purchases of foreign products. We need to quit supporting corrupt labor unions by not purchasing new products made with union labor. Unions exist to extort remuneration for a small class of people beyond their worth. Before Obama, there was nothing as Un-American, or more destructive to our countries economy than labor unions.

There is room for but one union in America …and that is our union of fifty States and includes all the people. Unions are merely Labor Crime Syndicates, and they all must go. Business opportunity must be allowed to naturally return to individuals, and to small business America, instead of being leveraged to advantage of corporations and unions and the unethical criminals who gravitate to them.

We must all resolve, in great enough numbers to matter, that we will not support Obama, or the world corporations and socialist policies into which the OCS is pouring our money. Corporations become so corrupt because they are immortal, but they are granted immortality in America, only by the will of the American people. We do not benefit by keeping decrepit corporations alive beyond their natural and useful lifespan.

We do not need government and corporations copulating, and producing economically deformed offspring that cannot be made whole at any cost. And, we must not be lured into sympathy for these bastard corporations and those who have chosen to work for, or invest in them, or their so-called innocent branches of enterprise. The corporations on whole were corrupt and poorly run entities, now the equally corrupt OCS is interfering where it has no right, and so the two are eating each other. Neither deserves the slightest leniency and both are overdue for radical correction, or elimination.

We do not need wealth to be redistributed in America, from the pockets of the working class, into the coffers of multinational corporations, bankers, insurance companies, and unions. What we need, is to let these inbred giants fall naturally from their own weight, so that perhaps twelve smaller, more efficient and viable enterprises can rise in the new clearing. Let the decomposing assets of those failed companies produce fertilizer to naturally nourish rising saplings. Leave those saplings then, to grow where they could not grow before, under the stifling shade of ancient, corrupt, and aging giants like AIG.

What I have said so far, adds up to the present spending spree, led by a very inept Obama, being ALL WRONG. Obama asked for an alternative plan from Republicans, and since I am a Republican, I am happy to oblige, and here are my suggestions:

Our economy recovered during WWII, not because of any Keynesian Effect in FDR’s New Deal spending, or war spending, but because of the resourcefulness of our people, our substantial natural resources, and because we all pulled together, spurred on by patriotic fervor. We have the potential for all of those things today.

1. Open up maximum access to all of our natural resources for immediate development, providing tax incentives for new production of domestic oil, copper, and forest products, and even keep alternative fuels in the mix.
2. Stop bailing out of any failing business, but instead, offer tax incentive to viable companies that buy up assets of failing companies. That’s what the Federal Bankruptcy Act is for …no new legislation needed …just stop spending our money damn-it!!!
3. Put the National Guard on the Mexican border, and beef up ICE assets to stop all ILLEGAL immigration, drop all minimum wage laws, outlaw union contracts, and let the supply and demand of the free market determine the value of labor, products and profitability.
4. Encourage all State Governors and Legislatures to enter into an agreement to place a moratorium on all new taxes, and roll all energy, business, and excise taxes back to 2000 levels to prevent the exodus of jobs or citizens from any state, and particularly from socialist states like California.

 ….Other than tax incentives, this removes all stimulus spending from the equation. The only other thing that government can rightly do from this point, is to encourage patriotic fervor among American citizens, and this is where our war heroes come into the picture. It is not likely we can deter our government from repeating the errors of Keynesian Economics, but maybe we can divert the squandered dollars to a good cause that every American can get behind….: 

5. Produce and sell, not “War Bonds,” but “Warrior Bonds.” These would be equivalent to WWII era War Bonds, but will fund just treatment of veterans rather than funding a world war.
6. Immediately tender a public apology to all of our ignored and dishonored Warriors from WWII, the Vietnam War, and the Korean War. Tender immediate reparations to the Bataan and Corregidor Veterans or their heirs in compensation for past U.S. blocking of successful legal recourse with Japan.
7. Immediately issue significant pay increases to all active duty Military personnel, and initiate a benefits package including private school vouchers for all children of active duty Military and Veterans, assistance for housing, family travel, food assistance (cash NOT welfare stamps or debit cards), and anything else we can do to make the lives of our soldiers and their families better.
8. Immediately expand Veteran’s medical and rehabilitation services, including more and better hospitals, insuring availability of the very best and newest care in relation to war injuries, even when it may not yet be available widely enough to be commercially viable.
9. Immediately upgrade body armor and other equipment needed to provide the best balance achievable of protection and comfort for our kids out there catching bullets lobbed by Obama’s Muslim pals.
10.  And finally, fix Social Security including, issuing an immediate pay increase for all on Social Security, presently at or above the age of sixty-five, start restoring the funds raided from Social Security to fund welfare programs, allow private investment of FICA withholdings with tax incentives for above minimum deposits.

If we as Americans cannot work as we did during WWII, but this time to honor, and to improve the quality of life for our Military people, and for our aged, we do not deserve the freedom we enjoy. We can let Obama divide us with class and race envy, and destroy us with socialism, or we can tell him and his criminal, communist, and Muslim pals to go to hell, and we can get to work saving America.

These are just my ideas, but regardless what develops, there is change coming, and I don’t think it is what Obama had in mind. God Bless America!

* Beginning in 2010, annual conventions will be held by the Descendants Group. Please consider joining or supporting this new group of advocates, and try to attend the convention if you can. Please visit the American Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor website, and let these great Americans know what you think of them.

There are experts, pundits, and bloggers as thick as fleas who write at length about theories, and economic models that show deficit spending is the way to economic recovery. They say we should fall in among them like so many sheep, and praise Obama’s spending frenzy as if condemning future generations to the slavery of indebtedness were the miracle of turning water into wine.

At that critical time, we did not try to increase consumer spending, but rather, we rationed everything that was not already only available in limited supply. We stopped buying cars, tires, gas, women’s hosiery, and almost anything classified as food or consumer goods. We rationed our resources and pulled in our economic horns in every way imaginable. Many Americans worked two jobs; often one of those jobs without pay as volunteers to help others in need, or to support the war effort.

We planted gardens, made our own clothes, canned, and stored up food supplies when they were available for times when they were not. We saved everything and wasted nothing. Cooking grease, newspapers, chewing gum wrappers, and every scrap of anything else that could be reused was collected by every American from nine to ninety, and donated to industry in support of our fight for liberty.

Instead of looking for a check from the government that future generations would have to pay back, we loaned money to the government in the form of war bonds. Everything that Obama is doing now is 180 degrees opposed to the principles that worked for us then. Our household budgets are microcosms of city, county, state, and national governments, and we all know that we cannot spend our way to prosperity.

We are in for some economic pain regardless what we do now, but conservation brings increase, while spending results in decrease. Long-term recovery is going to require that, as individuals and as a nation, we conserve more of what we have been wasting, while spending less than we have been on essentials. This is the exact opposite of what is being done, and the longer we wait to get it right, the longer real recovery will take.

What Obama and Congress are doing, is nothing but an attempt to make things appear better, and passing the inevitable pain of real recovery on to our children instead of taking our own medicine now like reasonable adults. And for what …so that Obama and Congress can grow wealthier and more powerful, as we grow weaker.

Now I want to tell you about a group of Americans heroes who are leaving us at an alarming rate. These men sometimes call themselves the Battling Bastards of Bataan and Corregidor. “What,” you may ask, “does this have to do with the economy?” I will tell you that it has everything to do with the economy as well as recovery, that is, if we want to replicate the economic model that made America into the world’s most efficient and powerful industrialized nation in the nineteen forties and fifties. Not to mention the restoration of our core values, and common decency as a nation.

I have a question for Congress and for Obama, and a suggestion for a better plan for the recovery of our nation, not just to heal our wallets, but also to sooth our national conscience and to heal our souls. My suggestion involves our Military Men and Women from WWII through present day, and the military personnel we soon will sorely need, but will not be there, if we do not act swiftly. It also involves our senior citizens, who are surviving on a Social Security system broken by Congress and Presidents who have raided the Social Security Trust Fund to pay for general budget programs.

The following was published in 1692. It is about a soldier who is bidding for due respect and fair compensation for all he has given in war. My friends, if we allow the Obama Crime Syndicate to disrespect our soldiers as they propose, we are gone mad.

Written in Old English, it is not an easy read, but please bear with me, and dedicate as much as you can of it, to your heart. It will be an important foundation to my next post in this series. …Thank you, and God Bless America, God Bless our Troops.

THE LOW COUNTRY SOLDIER:
OR,
His humble Petition at his Return into England,
after his bold Adventures in bloudy Battels.

To an excellent new Ture.                                             Licensed according to Order.

————————————————————

Good your Worship cast an eye Upon a Souldier’s Misery; Let not these lean Cheeks, I pray, Your Worship’s Bounty from me stay; But like a noble friend, Some Silver lend, And Jove shall pay you in the end, And I will pray that Fate, May make you fortunate, In Heaven, or in some Earthly State. To beg I ne’er was bred, kind Sir, Which makes me blush to keep this stir; Nor do I rove from Place to Place: For to make known my wofull Case:

For I am none of those that a roving goes, And in rambling show their drunken blows For all that they have got, Is by banging of the Pot, In wrangling who should pay the shot. Olympick Games I oft have seen, And in brave Battels have I been; The Cannons there aloud did roar, My Proffer high was evermore: For, out of a Bravado, When in a Barricado, By tossing of a hand Granadoe, Death then then was very near, When it took away this ear; But yet, thank God, I’m here, I’m here.

And at the Siege of Buda there, I was blown up into the Air, From whence I tumbl’d down again, And lay awhile among the slain; Yet rather than be beat, I got upon my Feet, And made the Enemy retreat; My self and seven more We fought Elevenscore; The Rogues was ne’er so thrash’d before.

I have, at least, a dozen times, Been blown up by these roguish Mines; Twice through the Skull have I been shot, That my Brains do boil like any Pot: Such Dangers have I past, At first and at last, As would make your Worship sore aghast; And there I lay for dead, Till the Enemy was fled, And then they carry’d me home to Bed.

At push of Pike I lost this Eye, And at Birgam Siege I broke this Thigh, At Oftend, like a warlike Lad, I laid about as I were mad; But little would you think, That e’er I had been Such a good Soldier of the Queen; But if Sir Francis Vere Were living now and here, He would tell you how I slash’d them there.

The Hollanders my Fury know, For oft with them I’ve dealt a Blow: Then did I take a warlike Dance, Quite through Spain and into France; And there I spent a floud Of very noble Bloud, Yet all would do but little good; For now I home am come, With my Rags upon my Bum, And crave of your Worship one finall Summe.

And now my Case you understand, Pray lend to me your helping hand; A little thing would pleasure me, To keep in mind your Charity: It is not Bread and Cheese, Nor Barley Lees, Or any such-like Scraps as these; But what I beg of you, Is a Shilling one or Two, Kind Sir, your Purse-string pray undo.

EPILOGUE

Have I spent all my days in bloudy Wars, Thus slash’d, carbonado’d, & cut out in scars? Have I danc’d o’er the Ice, march’d thro’ the Dirt, Without either Hat, Hose, Shoe, or Shirt?

And must I now beg, bow, troop, trudge and trot, To every Pagan, and poor Peasant Sot? No, by this Hand and Sword not I, That Man’s not fit to live who fears to dye: I’ll Purse it then, the Highway is my hope; His Heart’s not big, that fears a little Rope,

——- Stand, and Deliver, Sir,——–

Here Boy, take my Horse, walk him if thou’rt able, Lead him a turn or two, and put him into th’Stable As for you Mrs. Minks, don’t at me Jeer, To night for Supper let me have good Chear; My Pheasants, my Fowls, and choice of other Birds, I’ll not be fed with Apple-pye, Cheese, and Curds: As for your Swine’s flesh I’ll eat none, Unless it be a roast Pig, and then I may pick a Bone.

The rest my Boy shall transport into his Snap- sack, and so we are prepar’d for the next Rendezvous.

FINIS.

In spite of the best efforts and intentions of our wisest economists, our most adroit politicians, faithful communists, and determined patriots notwithstanding, government eventually gets everything wrong… Then when darkness looms, all is quickened by the advent of a war, or a depression, or a revolution, or complete collapse and anarchy. Whatever eventual force the universe imposes upon our high ideas, it seems we end up sooner or later, rebuilding from the bottom up.

We will tolerate abuse (real or imagined) for only so long before taking matters into our own hands. Taking matters into our own hands can manifest as, a voter revolt, changes in buying and investment habits, or withholding of taxes, writing letters and holding tea parties, or even in taking up arms, should government become so oppressive that the pain or the indignation becomes intolerable.

When tyrants gain power in government, they literally take our money by force, then use it in ways we do not want it used. They entangle us in detrimental trade agreements, and ridiculous environmental treaties, and generally dilute our sovereignty. They redistribute wealth to curry votes and favor, and so forth. At some point, we have to force our leaders to realize it is not their job to engineer new social order in America or the world, and our money is not theirs to use as they please, and particularly not to use opposing our will.

Using our economy and our productive force to turn us into a hedonist nation is the exact act of establishment of a secular state religion, and so we must remind our leaders that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion. We must also remind them that the right of the people to keep and bear arms is not subject to their opinions or discretion. And we know that if we allow them to take our arms, there will be nothing to stop them from doing whatever they want in violation of the rest of our Constitution as well.

The tyrants now in power, the Obama Crime Syndicate (OCS) are not presently about the business of rescuing our economy, but rather, they are about forging us into a different kind of society …a secular society that most of us do not want for America. Obama supports an extreme left agenda, including being an advocate of abortion, and disarming our nation militarily, and individually.

Using our full faith and credit, Obama is now thrusting forward with little resistance in sight, accomplishing one goal after the other. Those in Congress and the Senate whom we foolishly thought trustworthy, have failed to forcefully oppose this rape of our nation from within. In most cases, even Republicans have joined in, wallowing in the liberal mud, while giving lip service to conservatism and feigning opposition by way of casting nay votes they know are meaningless.

We have been transformed into a society of soft clay in the hands of an evil potter. Redirection of economic tides is being achieved through rewarding corruption and celebration of poor management in both business, and personal finance. We coddle unions, which are the antithesis of the American ideal. Liars, tax cheats, and lobbyists are elevated to high places and celebrate shamelessly as a corrupted mainstream media chastises America for failing to forsake the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in favor of worshiping their false God, the potter Obama.

We are now told that, we should not question the ways of Obama, or demand he present proof he is not a usurper born in Kenya and not in Hawaii. It is as if God has been removed from the land, and the words of Isaiah are made to say, woe unto him that striveth with Obama! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, what makest thou? …But God has not been removed, and if we let these people silence our protests, we will be judged along with those who now mock God in a new communist America, or at the throne of justice, or both.

So the popular news, and debate on the blogs has been about economics from the aspect of recovery. I say that economics cannot even be considered before we decide if we will be free, or if we will wade into the bondage of socialism. I say rich or poor, I choose freedom. Give me liberty or give me death! ~Neo

!! WARNING !!

This video is not intended for children, nor for the faint of heart.

Dear God, deliver us from this evil…!

Barack Obama has become the most obscene case of affirmative action in the history of the planet. As far as I’m concerned, anyone who was ever placed in a position because of the color of their skin is nothing but an incompetent ass that couldn’t cut it on their own merit, and that goes double for that jackass interloper in the White House.

As long as Obama and his fellow pity-my-blackness whiners want to dredge up the dead as an excuse to cry white injustice as license for blacks in every failing or filthy crime, protest or riot they commit, or favor they expect to be handed them, then let the good times roll.

One hundred forty-nine years ago this coming May, some forty thousand new Republicans convened in Chicago Illinois of all places, to select a Presidential candidate for their party. The Democratic Party had fought tooth and nail over the hot issue of the day against the Whigs, the Know Nothings, and the newly formed Republicans.

SLAVERY was the hot issue that Democrats had been willing to commit violence, fraud, bribery and every manner of political deviance and subterfuge to protect. The anti-slavery Republicans were visionary enthusiasts, “ridiculed, shunned, and condemned” for their stance according to the Chicago Evening Journal. As the most anti-slavery party, the Republicans had absorbed the Whigs and the Know Nothings to emerge as the only Party strong enough to fight the powerful and corrupt pro-slavery Democrats.

Nothing has changed except a bunch of ignorant liberals and useful enslaved-idiot blacks think the Democrats now stand for their freedom. That lie has never been farther from the truth than it is today, and ignorance has put the biggest Uncle Tom of all time in the White House to sell out and betray the people of his black half, just like black slavers of Africa sold the ancestors of black Americans into slavery 150+ years ago. More of those dead people to blame in pity-my-blackness whining, except wait a minute! Those Judases weren’t white were they?

At the Republican convention in 1860, Thurlow Weed told conventioneers that “what this country will demand of its chief executive for the next four years is a man of the highest order of executive ability, a man of real statesmanlike qualities, well known to the country and of large experience in national affairs.” Compare that to the know nothing jackass we have as President now. But don’t worry, we have affirmative action and even if he is not qualified, thank God at least he is black! …I do wonder, have we gone collectively insane?

In Chicago that May of 1860, William Seward, Salmon Chase, Edward Bates, and Abraham Lincoln faced off as anti-slavery candidates and with other notable white men of the day, sat their reputations and their livelihood afire atop a nation that was a powder keg waiting for a spark. Yes, those “damn white men” did that …but wait, since they were risking their necks for the freedom of black people, we really can’t draft them for pity-my-blackness whining against whites can we? …Oh what the hell, they were white, let’s blame them anyway. Will someone please pass Michelle Obama a hanky?

…So as not to go on all night, I’ll try to wrap this up. Abraham Lincoln won the race, and later won the Presidency, but winning the office was not enough to secure freedom for blacks. The nation soon sank into a dark war between the states and between ideologies. In retribution for the practice of slavery that was not an American invention, but had become an American problem, the nation poured out the blood of over 600,000 mother’s sons to settle the issue of slavery once and for all.

Now listen up America, and especially liberals, and Barack Obama and his racist minions, because I am about to use strong language in a place where strong language is due. If you are going to continue whining about race, and about what happened to people long dead, then go ahead. Name your poison.

You stand on your dead slaves, and I’ll stand on the dead soldiers who fought, bled, and died for freedom of all. You call me racist, on the grounds of entitlement from your history of dead, and I’ll do the same. If you want to go back and whine on that principle, then I’ll go back and consider you what you were considered before all that death and sacrifice was made in your behalf. I will consider you no better than property and call you Nigger as you were known back then.

On the other hand, if you want to stop the pity-my-blackness whining, and stand up like equals, I’ll consider you equals. It is your choice my friends. Honor the dead and we will go forth as brothers and equals. Or, if you prefer, continue to dig up the dead and disrespect them for your personal gain, and then to me, you make of yourselves nothing more than ungrateful Niggers. I speak only my opinion, and only for myself, but I suspect I am not alone. I was called out by Attorney General Eric Holder, and I accept the call. We are a nation about to settle up, and if that Nigger wants a fight, I’m all in.

I still have great respect for many blacks, and I will take every man on his own merit, but I have never in my life generally had less respect for blacks than I feel today when the country, and particularly blacks, are holding up a lying, cheating bastard as the best from among us. The country has been disgraced by allowing this interloper to hold high office. Surely there were many white and black men of integrity who would have been qualified for the job. But then, men of integrity do not belong to the Democratic party do they? God help us.

In 1998, Paramount Pictures released the movie, The Truman Show, starring Jim Carrie…

 

The Truman Show bears a striking resemblance to the real life production of The Obama Show, to which we now find ourselves exposed. In the present production, there are also 5,000 cameras, each dedicated to producing an artificial edifice of an otherwise corrupt and stuttering underachiever from Kenya.

By selecting, and broadcasting only the most flattering video and sound bites, and by rejecting anything that would detract from the image of their star, producers of The Obama Show have created the illusion of a Superstar, and American hero.

Anything that would not contribute to a successful script, are simply edited out by the show’s writers. The star’s Muslim father, his stepfather, and his mother, along with his education in Muslim schools, hardly exist in the final cut. The storyline is devoid of any mention of the fact credible witnesses have sworn he was born in Kenya, and that his Hawaiian birth certificate has been deemed a fake.

In the big screen version of The Obama Show, the star’s fake birth certificate is lauded as proof of “Natural Birth” as if it were as genuine as the original Declaration of Independence. The Berg vs. Obama lawsuit filed in Federal Court, and which, as defense was simply ignored by the star himself until it was dismissed without the slightest comment by a derelict court, is oddly ignored by all of the MSM in a fashion that renders the proverbial White-Elephant metaphor descriptively inadequate.

The jackass in the starring role of The Obama Show is still campaigning. …In this bizarre, scripted production, Obama is still supported unequivocally by the “tingle down their leg” MSM. The same fraudulent propaganda machine that put the jackass actor into office as if he were actually qualified, is still fully functional, and fully deployed.

The United States Congress and Senate are faithfully following the director’s instructions, and it is clear now, they will not deviate from the script. If we scream at our televisions like the viewing public watching The Truman Show, the results will be the same. Both the Congress and Senate ignored their constituents and passed the star’s stinking spending boondoggle, as if it were as popular as fresh air.

Chickenshits like Arlen Specter, stand up and read from The Obama Show script, assuring us that he, “Specter,” will not allow bad things in the spending bill, while out of the other side of his mouth, voting for the bill that in the real world IS ALL BAD. All the while, the MSM provides background music, singing hymns of praise to their The Obama Show star, and their faux deity, the dumb-ass pretender from Kenya.

NEXT: WHERE TO START — But in the mean time, tell me what you think we should do about this fraud being perpetrated on the American People.
