For a long time, I have watched what has been going on in the political arena, and while I have made no bones as to what I think of Mr. Obama and his administration as well as the former administration of Mr. Bush and company, I find that I need to get more personal with you, particularly those of you who continue to support Mr. Obama.
Fridays and holidays seem to be the time that the President likes to spring new orders or changed ones, as he did this past Friday, on all of us. See HR 347 or NDAA or The National Defense Resources Preparedness EO. Tactically speaking it's brilliant because most people are doing things on the weekend and not watching the news, and most, so called news media, are ending their news cycles, so most of them get little notice until it's too late or unless an alternate news sight puts it out there.
As always , before I say much more, understand I don't like any of the people running in either party. The only one who I think is worth anything, Ron Paul, doesn't stand a chance because he's a libertarian and all sides are against him, but let us be clear ,I think that the whole system is rigged and it doesn't matter who's running, the winner has already been decided we are just going through the motions.
Having said this, I still have to ask the question, why are any of you still supporting Mr Obama?
What good has he done for this country? Yes ,Gays can serve openly in the military but other then that what has he done? Is it health care? I have government style health care and I can tell you it's not as great as you may think and it will hurt the economy more. It can't be his economic or energy policies, he hasn't got any, and this you know to be true every time you go to the pump or buy food, so what, pray tell, is it?
My observances of him show him to be nothing more then Mr. Bush on steroids. Mr Bush may have started this assault on our freedoms and liberties, via the patriot act ,but Mr. Obama has done nothing but make it worse. I remember protests where folks were upset about Mr. Bush wanting to tap our phones and see our library cards, yet when Mr. Obama continues this policy and then adds to it, via executive orders, completely by passing congress on just about everything, I have to ask ; Where are all you protesters now?
Doesn't it bother any of you that your rights are essentially gone? You no longer have the right to free speech unless it's politically correct, to your religious beliefs, to protest against the government. The press is complicit in all of this in that they have turned a purposeful blind eye to it and they are really only as free as their owners allow. Your right to own a gun is filled with massive paper work and unnecessary restrictions.You have no more rights to privacy or to be secure in your persons etc.....the list is long and I have written about all of it before. We have officials from this administration informing congress that they don't need to ask for permission to go to war, they only need the blessing of NATO or the UN, again a clear violation of the Constitution. You can be detained indefinitely and for no reason, without a warrant. You can be charged with a felony for protesting. The government can take everything ,whether it's peace time or war, all on the whim of the president. They are going to allow for 30,000 spy drones by 2015 to be flying and spying on all of us. TSA can search you at the airports and VIPR teams can stop you on the highways and bus stations. We are told by DHS to spy on each other and report anything no matter how stupid and we are living in constant fear of our shadows. Spending is through the roof and though it may have started with Bush it has gotten far worse with Obama and no one in either party has the courage to stop it. We have, in short, gone insane and we are bent on our own destruction.
I haven't taken the time here to give you lot of bill numbers and dates or where to find the articles because I have done all of that in earlier blogs. For once I am just simply expressing my frustration with some of you for not being able to see what is happening right in front of you.
I had this conversation with someone just recently who supports Obama, and as we were discussing the whole birth certificate issue, they called me a racist. My obvious question was why, because I don't like anything that he is doing? I spoke out against Mr. Bush and last I knew he was white. So where does my racism come from? Is it from my Cuban father or my Scottish/ Irish mother who is a democrat? Did I learn this from my Gay brother or his husband? The nerve of anyone calling me a racist because I don't agree with this administrations policies tells me just one thing. You know he has nothing to stand on so all you can do is insult those of us who are opposed to him.
So go ahead and vote for who ever you wish. It doesn't really matter because no matter who wins , and that will be Obama, mark my words on that one, the results will be bigger government.That government getting more and more in our personal business and eventually the crashing of our economy along with the total destruction of the Constitution.
It has already begun, and it will end badly.

The Dead Constituion And New Bill Of Rights
Last Thursday, with no fan fare or media coverage, the first amendment to the Constitution was officially killed. HR 347 was signed into law by President Obama and thus ended your right to free speech and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. If you don't believe it to be true, first of all go look it up and then see how it's worded. Next if you still don't believe it then get some of your friends together and go protest anywhere near someone who has secret service protection, say Mitt Romney or Mr. Obama, and see how fast you are arrested. Worse yet is that now, because of NDAA, you can be arrested and held indefinitely while being charged with a felony crime, for nothing more then speaking your mind. Mr. Obama has suggested that he would never use such a law, as in found in the NDAA against Americans, but if he can justify killing Americans in foreign countries with impunity and with out do process, as was once in our Constitution , I doubt that something as silly as his word would actually stop him from using it . One thing that history should have taught all of us, is that there has never been a weapon invented that hasn't been used, and killing dissent, is a massive weapon.
So this summer when some of you will be out protesting various issues near the political conventions, I am going to sit back and eat popcorn and laugh at all you sheep who haven't listened to a damn thing that I and a host of others have tried to warn you about. When you start screaming about your first amendment rights of free speech and the right to assemble, I am going to chuckle because you don't have any them anymore. You kept quiet when they shut down people that you disagreed with and now they are going to come after you. Hell they will likely come after me at some point, but at least I will go down knowing that I did what I could to warn you and to stop the destruction of our Republic.
So lets do something different then. Rather then trying to convince you I will rewrite the Bill of Rights, that's the first 10 Amendments for the sheeple, and show you how they look today. The original you can find on line if you have the ambition and the guts to do so.
Amendment 1
The Congress shall force you to follow laws that violate your conscious and freedom of religion. They will disguise it as something else, but they will infringe on your God given rights and morals, you will have no choice.You have the right to speak and to write only that which is politically correct and non offensive unless you are speaking against Christians and Jews then it's OK.The press shall be mind numbed robots who will only report that which their corporate owners dictate even if its a bold faced lie. If you even think or suggest that you are going to assemble to protest anything you will be arrested and jailed quite possibly forever.
Amendment 2
We will do everything in our power to take away your right to bear arms to defend yourselves from crime and tyranny. Until that time we will regulate and make arbitrary rules making it difficult for you to have said arms.
Amendment 3
While we won't let the military live in your house, which we own by the way, we will let them patrol in the streets and establish checkpoints and work with the local paramilitary forces known as police. Make sure that you are carrying the proper papers at all times.
Amendment 4
You will never be secure in your possessions and personal effects from search and seizure. We may come in and arrest you for little more then the thought that you might commit a crime, and with out a warrant arrest you and take all your things. You have no right to resist arrest, if you do we will fill you full of bullets in front of your family and kill your dog for the sheer hell of it.
Amendment 5
We can arrest you and make you disappear, quite possibly forever, and take everything that you have as well. You don't have to worry about double jeopardy either because you won't likely ever get to a civil trial if we think that you are to dangerous.
Amendment 6
We can detain you indefinitely. We can hand you over to the military for detention as well as ship you overseas to a foreign detention cell. No charges, no lawyer, you simply vanish because we don't like what you say or believe.
Amendment 7 -9
You have no right to trial by a jury of your peers because if they are your peers then they are enemies of the state and should be arrested as well. If we think that you are an an enemy of the state, even without proof, we can have you assassinated. Torture is optional. No fuss , no muss.....
Amendment 10
We are the Federal government and you have no rights unless we give them to you.
Those of you with your eyes open know that all of this has already happened. Some of you know personally . Those of you who just think I'm nuts, need to get your heads out of the TV, get on line and do some serious research and don't just go to the corporate media, they are in on all of it and, I might add, are actively encouraging and supporting our demise.
If the powers that be do succeed in their agenda it will become way too late to sit around and sing Kum By Ya and hold up protest signs because you will be in a FEMA camp somewhere with no rights anymore and at that point you might as well just drink the koolaid and call it a day.
The saddest day , for some of you, is going to be the day when you realize that what all of us conspiracy nuts have believed, is true . Because you won't have anyone to blame but for it but yourselves.
Should be a real interesting summer...popcorn popping...

Rush Limbaugh, Sandra Fluke and Hypocrisy
Late last week Rush Limbaugh called a woman, a third year Georgetown university law student, 30 year old Sandra Fluke, a slut on his radio show. I had planned on staying out of the controversy except that now, some of the same people, Bill Mahr, Chris Matthews, and Kieth Olberman, amongst others, who have had very crude things to say about women from Sarah Palin to Hillary Clinton are now having the nerve to ridicule Rush, when what he said, while not polite or kind, was tame compared to what they said. This is just plain hypocritical. I am not here to defend Mr. Limbaugh's comments but I will call hypocrisy when I see it.
First lets do something really strange and take what he said in context, which was essentially that she wants the American tax payer to pay for her sexual activities via contraceptives. In the world I grew up in someone who wanted to be paid to have sex was called a prostitute or a slut. Mr. Limbaugh comes from an older generation then my own, and he is conservative in all things, so why should his reaction surprise any one? Yes he shouldn't have said it that way, and yes the outrage has caused many a sponsor to run, much to many liberals delight, but he has a large audience and someone will fill in the gap because there is money to be made from his loyal listeners, continuing to talk about this is just giving him free publicity.
Second, the idea that she is some sort of private citizen it simply false. One thing I have learned in writing, or when you get up in front of an audience,is that once you speak out you subject yourself to attacks from all sides and some of it can get personal and nasty. She became a public figure as soon as she started speaking to the congressional committee and voicing her politically charged point of view. I am hard pressed to believe that she hadn't a clue that her statements would cause a stir especially in light of her being a third year law student. She apparently was smart enough to get into law school but not smart enough to know what would happen? I know that I have the potential to cause trouble every time I write something or speak publicly and I barely graduated high school.
Third, He hasn't said or done anything, that other prominent commentators haven't. But most of them have been given a pass, not because they were apologetic for what they said, but because they are a part of the favored party. The excuse is that the people that they attacked were mostly political in nature. So calling a woman a "Twat" or the C word is OK as long as the victim is a conservative republican or a political figure? This is pure hypocrisy. Women's groups ought to be up in arms EVERY time some well known figure makes a derogatory comment about a woman not just when its a conservative talk show host.
Fourth, and lastly, This is not about women's health issues. This is nothing more then a continuing battle to force religious institutions to provide contraception in violation of their first amendment rights and their collective conscience. It is an attempt to make conservatives look like people who don't care about women or their health, it's a brilliant tactical move on the part of the Liberals, but it is also nothing more then smoke and mirrors. Mr. Limbaugh comments didn't didn't help but we are not talking breast cancer here, we are talking about forcing Americans to pay for sexual activity that many might be morally or religiously opposed to.
So my suggestions to any and all that were offended by his comments, get a back bone, and if you are going to be "outraged" at Rush then go after ALL media who tear women up, not just the conservative ones. And lets stay focused on the real issue, which has nothing to do with women's health but rather the issue of forcing religious institutions to violate their consciences in clear violation of the first amendment.
First lets do something really strange and take what he said in context, which was essentially that she wants the American tax payer to pay for her sexual activities via contraceptives.

Sexual News
You know what, I am tired of the news. No it goes way beyond that, I am sick of what people want to call news anymore. I have a better Idea. In stead of focusing on subjects that really matter, such as the various wars or the state of the national economy and personal liberties being trashed, let us, instead make all our news sexually orientated. Yes you read me right. If it doesn't have some sort of sexual content, then It should be banned from the airwaves. No more war news with out sex. No more political news with out sex. Here is an example of how this would work.
If I write a headline that says organic potatoes are better then chemically enhanced ones, then I may get a few readers who are interested in the subject of organics. But if I make the headline say, that sexual intercourse is better with those who eat nothing but organic potatoes, then suddenly I am going to have a multitude of readers. I will have not only those who eat organic foods attention, but there is bound to be folks from the scientific community reading and or commenting on it as well as those who are just curious about anything that involves sex. It's not that there is anything different about the potatoes in either article, but there is a huge difference in how I present it and that makes all the difference.
Another example; I don't watch much for television, so as you can imagine, I don't watch any of the awards shows, yet when a particular starlet came out and showed some leg, that became news and it caught my attention. This particular starlet doesn't appeal to me and I think she needs to put on a few pounds to look healthy and dare I say it ,sexy , but because of the headline, it was able to get my attention.
So lets put this in perspective then. Imagine headlines that looked something like this;
" The Afghan war ended today because the US military and the Taliban couldn't continue fighting due to an out break of sexual contact that disrupted the shooting and the war. Both sides declare sexual prowess victory....."
"GOP rivals battle it out in close contests over sexual performance, Ron Paul , while clearly the oldest, said that his sex life was still going strong and that makes him the best candidate for office, because of more experience in the things that really matter..."
" The president signed into law today a bill that would legalize the constitution once again. He signed this while resting in his bed at the white house after a wonderful night with his wife, he is quoted as saying that he has had flowers sent to her...."
Is any of this likely to happen? I doubt it. But did you see what I did,in just those three "headlines". I brought in the ending of the war, the GOP political fight and the Constitution all in three ridiculous headlines.
My point though is that if this is the only way to get Americans to pay attention to anything other then reality shows and whose legs are sexier then others, then it should be done. Yesterday I posted an article that told of congress stripping away more first amendment rights, which many a protestor is going to find out about the hard way this summer, and Only one person even bothered to comment. Sad. So lets try that headline differently and see what happens.
The Sexually active House of Representatives approved a bill on Monday, after their daily orgy, that outlaws protests in instances where some government officials are nearby, engaged in sex,whether or not you even know it.....
The actual headline says this; (Courtesy of RT )"The House of Representatives approved a bill (HR 347) on Monday that outlaws protests in instances where some government officials are nearby, whether or not you even know it." It already has senate approval.
The first revised version likely got your attention, and may have even disgusted you, but the second one you likely yawned through, but just like my organic potato analogy, the message didn't change, just the presentation.
So just let me know if a sexual format will work for you, when I post political news that I think is important. I refuse to show any leg but Ill do whats needed if it will get your attention....

Research Before You Speak
Most any of you who know me must know by now that I don't have any affiliation with any political party. Having said that,I had thought that I had found a group of Libertarians and Constitutionalists that I could agree with, that by all appearances, they seemed to be awake to the things that I have seen and have believed, only to find out that many of them are almost as ignorant of history and the facts as many people in the major parties.
I read a comment by someone yesterday, from this group, that was trying to suggest that the Jews in Israel had only been there since the end of WW2 and that the true "Semites" were actually the so called Palestinians ,and that the current financial mess in the world has been caused by Jewish bankers, following the book "Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion." This is pure ignorance. With all this technology and information at your fingertips, how could anyone actually believe any of it. Then I thought about it. The problem isn't with the information being out there, the problem is that most people would rather have their information via sound bites ,from the Main Stream Media, and most of that, when it speaks of Israel and the Jewish people, is mostly anti Jewish.
So I thought I might try something different and use what is known as "historically accurate facts" to paint the proper picture. You may feel free to disagree with me if you wish, but at least take the time to research it yourself before doing so.
The first round of lies is that the Jews are European in origin and that they have only been in Israel for the past 60 years. Even disregarding the Bible, as an accurate historical record, there is plenty of historical documentation from the Greeks and Romans to show that they have been in Israel for at least that long. I have been doing research for a book I am considering writing, on one of the Messianic figures of the Jewish people, that led to the destruction of the Jewish temple in Jerusalem. Most of my information comes from Roman historians. I went back and looked at a blog that I wrote last year in which I included all of the history of Israel, in abbreviated form, from the times before the Romans all the way to the Brits. There has always been Jewish people in Israel, it is simply a historical fact.
The word Semite, to be used properly , according to Websters dictionary anyhow, is a reference to many differing peoples of the middle east to include both Jews and Arabs. It doesn't actually belong to one group or nation. So in effect if you are anti Semitic, you hate pretty much anyone of middle eastern descent, Arab and Jew alike.
So to suggest that the so called Palestinians are the Semitic people is only partially accurate and only in the fact that they are Arabs. So then if they are Arabs then who might the real Palestinians be? The real Palestinians are in fact the Jewish people, again go back to history. The Romans named the area Palestine and that area was populated by Jews. An Arab, prior to the terrorist Yassar Arafat and the 1967 war, would have considered it an insult to be called a Palestinian. It wasn't until after the 1967 war, after the Arabs in Israel and been shut out of their home countries, by their own Arab brothers, that they adopted the term Palestinian. These are the facts, look them up.
One other note. I have seen time and time again, where Israel is called an Apartheid state, by the media and some really ignorant people. If you believe that to be true, go and ask some of Israels Arab citizens , particularly some of the Arab women, how much opportunity that they have in Israel. Any where else but Israel and they would be slaves to their husbands and wouldn't be able to do anything. I might point out as well that these people live side by side with Jews and they have no problems. Arabs are welcome in Israel, but if Hamas and others have their way Jews will not be welcome in their territories, so who is actually promoting Apartheid?
Concerning the book The Protocols Of The Elders of Zion I refer to both the London Times article of 1921 debunking it and an article written in 2000 by Charles Paul Freund in the Feb. edition of Reason.com.
"The last mystery surrounding the infamous anti-Semitic pamphlet Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion--the identity of the 1904 hoax's author--finally has been solved. According to the Russian historian Mikhail Lepekhine, the Protocols were concocted by a Russian propagandist named Mathieu Golovinski as part of a monarchist scheme to persuade Czar Nicholas II that the capitalist modernization of Russia was really a Jewish plot to control the world. Golovinski's handiwork--24 subversive "protocols" that purport to be the minutes of a secret "Zionist" conclave--was to become a bulwark of anti-Semitic paranoia and an essential text of Nazism. The Protocols remain dear to credulous paranoids throughout the world. Historian Lepekhine discovered Golovinski's authorship in Russia's long-closed archives and published his findings last November in the French newsweekly L'Express. Golovinski had been linked to the work before: The German writer Konrad Heiden identified him as an author of the Protocols in 1944. The Protocols have been known to be a forgery since 1921, when The Times of London revealed that they had been largely copied from an 1864 political tract by a Frenchman, Maurice Joly. That work was a commentary on French politics and had nothing to do with Jews. Golovinski, working with such mystical anti-modernizers as the Holy Brotherhood, combined Joly's fantasy elements of world domination with earlier anti-Jewish and anti-Masonic material to produce "evidence" of an overarching Jewish-Masonic plot. Late-Imperial Russia was awash in documentary forgeries, domestic spying, and counterspying, with revolutionaries and the Czarist secret police often involved in complex duplicities. Golovinski himself changed sides after the 1917 revolution, becoming a Bolshevik propagandist."
The bottom line is this, the Jewish people are not whats wrong with the world. Is their government perfect? No. No more then ours is and thats why we are attempting to fire the whole lot of them last I knew. The fact of the matter is that it is selfishness and greed on the parts of the elites, all over the world ,at the cost of all the rest of us, is the problem and as long as we are focused on the wrong people we will never be able to change anything.
The below verse says much as to how I see things and how I will continue to see things, if that means I have no political party and I am hated by all because I wrote what I believe to be true, then so be it.
"Listen to Me, you who know righteousness ,You people in whose heart is My law:Do not fear the reproach of men,Nor be afraid of their insults. For the moth will eat them up like a garment,And the worm will eat them like wool;But My righteousness will be forever,And My salvation from generation to generation.” Isa. 51:7-8

Truth Does Not Equal Sedition
At the end of my last blog I wrote and said that at some point in time, the things that I write might be considered to be "seditious." I am sure that many of you who have read this probably think that I am out of my mind, or that I just can't see things in the larger picture of life or ,worse yet ,you might think that I am just not bright enough to really see that my beliefs and ideals are out of touch with reality. Perhaps I am, all the above things, perhaps I am so old fashioned that I have been extremely naive to the realities of this new brave world, I don't know and honestly I don't care.
I, along with many others in a general way, have been branded by the United States Government as a potential terrorist for little more then loving my country, supporting the Constitution and literally defending it against our so called enemies. I am labeled as such because I believe in the freedom of speech, even for those that I disagree with. I am labeled as such because I am a gun owner, an Iraq war vet and a constitutionalists. I have not broken any laws, have upheld my oath and yet time and time again, I , and others just like me, are considered to be the dangerous ones.
I have attempted, over the last few years to be as objective in my writing as I can be. I have attempted to put a humorous spin on things or to suggest that there are some, much simpler ways ,to do things then these convoluted ideas that our government comes up with. Yet I am either ignored or thought to be a fool. So be it.
This is where the supposed seditious part starts so you might want to leave now, before they round you up for having thoughts of your own or a conscience.
Our president and most of congress are traitors to the country and have violated the oath of office. Here is the presidential oath: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." He has violated this oath time and time again , with his end runs around congress, and the Constitution that he is sworn to uphold, and Yes his predecessor did them same and is just as guilty.
Congress has ignored it over and over again, and at least in a few cases openly scorned it or have suggested that we need to get rid of it or change it. How is that protecting or defending it? All of them need to be recalled and replaced. It isn't about skin color , and it isn't about party affiliation, because their predecessors were just as bad if not worse in some ways. The patriot act ,and the continuation of it, is in complete violation of more amendments to the constitution then I have time to write about. If any of you would take the time to search and really look at what has been done, all in the name of security, you would see it. This I realize will never happen because you would rather be entertained then informed, the death of a singer or the latest so called reality show or your FB status is more important to you then learning the truth,which is simply this; Your government is going out of it's way to destroy your rights and freedoms and they have a global agenda in mind. Here are just a few examples.
Freedom of speech. Every time someone wants to speak out against the policies of the president or even have the nerve to question him, they are ostracized or ignored, and many times they are called racist, even if they are black. Ask Joe the plumber about being investigated for speaking his mind. Ask the General who couldn't speak at a military school because he was to controversial and CAIR protested. Ask Jewish students and leaders who try to speak out for Israel and they are shouted down. The only speech that you are allowed are those that the administration approves of or is considered politically correct. Freedom of speech means that you have the right to speak your mind even if that means some one is offended. I am of Cuban descent, if you wish to go out on a street corner and denounce all Cuban immigrants, you have that right. And while I will disagree with you as loudly as I can, I will also defend your right to say what you will. Yes, there can be consequences for what you say, but you still have the right to say them.
Freedom of Religion. You have to be living under a rock to not see whats happening. The government, in clear violation of the Constitution, is telling the Catholic church, and really all religious institutions, that you have to follow the dictates of the government even though it goes against your conscience and morals. This is not entirely new,clergy of all kinds have been essentially told that they have to be careful what they preach on,because they could be held responsible for a hate crime ,if someone reacts wrong to something that they said, making broad assumptions that what happened was your intention. Then there are those, who on public streets have been arrested for nothing more then handing out Bibles. The list is long and endless but the bottom line is the agenda is to remove as much of religion and speech as possible. I will end this section with this thought; You may not agree with the Catholic church, (I am neither Catholic nor a Christian)on this issue ,but understand that once that breech has been made, it's only a matter of time before they come after what you believe to be morally wrong or your moral duty.
Right to keep and bare arms. Right now the current administration is considering trying to ratify a treaty on small arms that the UN is proposing.This is little more then an attempt to end run the congress and the Constitution once again. This is not a hunter rights issue, this is an issue of every American citizen having the right to defend themselves from a tyrannical government and it's enforcers. Do you really want the UN to be the one who decides this issue? Do you really want a country where the only ones with the guns are the criminals, military and police? This is what Hitler did and millions died.This is whats being attempted here.
The right of the people, peaceably, to assemble and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. A couple of years ago during the Republican convention, people were kept from protesting any where near where the convention was being held. I have watched, as time and time again, people from all walks of life have been arrested or escorted out of an public assembly, not because they were doing anything dangerous, but simply because they were voicing their opinion on what they believed was wrong. When Occupy Wall Street was peacefully protesting what they considered to be wrong, many times, they were arrested and hauled away. When the Tea Party spoke their minds,instead of the points of issue being debated they were mocked and ridiculed by the government and essentially dismissed and called racist. Their grievances still haven't been addressed.
The rights of the people to be secure in their persons. The government has said that you no longer have that right either. You have no right to resist arrest. The police on the other hand have the right to enter your home and go through and remove all your personal effects for no other reason that you might be up to something. Meaning that if they smell something suspicious outside your door, with out a warrant, or real probable cause, they can bust into your home and arrest you on nothing more then suspicion. If you fly you are subject to search and naked body scans. If you take a bus or a train, or even stop at the right rest area, you can find yourself being randomly searched for no reason other then DHS says they can, again violating the Constitution.
I am only up to number 4 and I have skipped a lot of stuff.
Now of course along with the everything else, because of the NDAA act, you can be arrested and detained by the military or police ,for an indefinite period of time, for no more reason then you MIGHT do something. I know someone personally who this happened too so this isn't just hear say to me. Just writing this ,and telling you, that all this is a clear violation of everything that this country has ever stood for, could be enough to make me disappear for a long time, if for no other reason ,then to scare me into silence.
We are spending more money then we have. Getting our selves closer to the edge of economic disaster and no one is stopping it. While many are getting poorer because of it, our congress people are getting remarkably richer. Bankers and Wall street are doing well while the working class and main street are falling apart. And no one is doing anything to stop it.
Voter fraud and corruption charges have been filed in various parts of this country against officials of the two main parties. Meanwhile real voters ,at the primaries and caucuses, are having their votes disregarded in states such as Iowa and Maine because they don't match the already pre determined outcome.This is just plain wrong.
We are a nation that has ignored it's own laws and Constitution from the top down and we then have the nerve to try and force other nations to follow our lead? We have become the modern day Romans and are ripe for total and complete collapse. This is what the globalist want.
So there you have it. I am done supporting anything that this country does, until we go back to being a Constitutional Representative Republic. I won't support any party, or cause. I am not interested in voting because the two party system is a sham, it's a choice between two evils with the same, differently worded ideology. We have the illusion of being free but the reality is that we only have the freedom that we are willing to fight for and collectively we have stopped fighting.
So am I being seditious? I don't think so, at least not according to Websters Dictionary,I am simply speaking the truth, but if in speaking that truth I am seen as such then so be it.

Attacks on the Constitution and Religion
I am not a Catholic. I am not Protestant. I am not a Christian,or Jew, though my leanings are definitely towards Judaism, but I am concerned for all of the above religions. In fact I will take it just a bit further and say that I am worried about where this country is heading in regards to our constitution and our God given rights.
Last week, as most of you who pay attention anyhow, know, the Obama administration decided that it would make it mandatory for religious institutions to provide everything from birth control to abortions through mandated insurance for their employees. In effect saying to them that even though it is against your religious beliefs to do so, we, "The Government", are going to force you to do this. Besides the fact that it violates the conscience of many religious groups, it is also a clear violation of the First Amendment which states very clearly:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. "
I have heard this used time and time again to keep separate church and state and yet, when it's convenient to do so, the government is going to violate it for their own purposes?
I have heard it argued that a vast number of the above named groups use contraception any how but that is not really the point. The point is that the government does not have the right to force you to violate your conscience whether or not they think it's good for you.
None of this is new of course. I asked someone, a Christian friend, 20 some odd years ago, when the great witch hunt for smokers was going on, where does it stop? At that time, as most of you probably remember, smoking and smokers were being hunted down almost like dogs and some were actually calling for the government to ban cigarettes or at least tax them so high as to bankrupt the tobacco companies, which of course were the most vile of all groups, and so I asked the question then, if the government interferes here in our lives where does it stop? Even if it is with the best of intentions it goes way beyond what they were ever intended to do and what if the thing that you love or like to do suddenly becomes the next target? Where does it stop?
Today it seems that the entire Constitution is under attack in one form or another and there are those in powerful positions who are calling for it to be changed or ignored. It has become PC to attack the very document that points out our God given rights to even have this conversation.
We have groups such as DHS that would suggest that people like me, a war vet, Libertarian, constitutionalists are actually the enemy now, because I believe in freedom and liberty as guaranteed by that very Constitution. I should point out that unless you live under a rock you likely fit into one of their terrorist categories as well.
None of this really surprises me. The constitution has been under full blown attack for the past 12 years at least and religion for at least the last 20 in both the private and public arenas. Two recent examples a Supreme Court Justice, suggested in an interview that the constitution was too restrictive and that if she was looking for a model she would go with something like South Africa uses. This is a someone, who is supposed to uphold and defend the Constitution and yet she belittles it internationally. Of course when you have presidents, past and present, who do end runs around the congress and the Constitution, and in congress people who ignore the Constitution in favor of PC or who pays the most, I don't suppose I should expect any less.
The religion part is easy to spot as well. Military Chaplains being told what they can and cannot say to their congregations, They cant invoke the name of their god in their prayers. A prominent university, is threatening to ban religious organizations unless they are all inclusive of people,including those who are fundamentally opposed to what they stand for. If you are going to be a part of a group shouldn't you be expected to have similar beliefs?
That's like saying that the Marine Corp League should allow members of Code Pink to join them with out ever having served in the Marines. It makes no sense.
At what point do we , as Americans, say enough already?
We have become a nation of people that allow the nanny state to rule everything we do. We have become a nation of sheeple who just sit back and watch or even actively promote those who would destroy our Constitution, somehow convincing ourselves that this is for our own good, not realizing that we are but inches away from full blown tyranny.
You can ignore me, I am not a powerful person, I am but a patriot who has served his country and loves what this country use to be, but mark my words when I tell you that the day is coming when we won't even be able to have this conversation because it will be considered to be seditious, but that's a subject for another day.
