Your extreme opinions make you a nut but I’m not sure if that is in the shell or out. Either way you have been well roasted with way too much salt.

I take it thats all you have to offer, so you resort to name calling___It’s shame you’ll be hangin on Obamas robes for help, and he’ll ignore you, his sheep, just like, he and his admin has done to the rest of us._-Pity__Sniff

Angel,
I take great satisfaction in the fact that if they DO start hanging us that eddduuuhhhh will hang there too as he is WORTHLESS!!!

eddie . . . so you are content living in 1930′s germany???

You survived the Bush/Cheney years, so you had your sweet taste of it already. Will you be bringing back more this next time around??

eddie, You’ve got to be kidding.

After Obama the narcissist, executive orders, czars, outrageous legislation, expensive and idulgent parties and trips on our dime, and so many other infractions, including but not limited to, talking down to the people, leaving us out of the process and trying to control what we hear and speak, doing everything in secret…

Makes me long for the days of Bush and Cheney. At least we didn’t worry about brownshirts and jackboots.

Claire,
LAZY fruitcakes!!! They want us to pay them to sit on their azzes!!!

Joe H– I never expected a handout in my entire life. Never even thought about it. My precious Mother raised me and my sisters to work, and to take pride in working. She also taught us that material things in life do not count, it is the satisifaction of knowing you worked for everything and anything you got in life.

Claire,
amen, My first job was at 15 at a hatchery and by 16 I was a lead on a crew!!

JoeH– I was detasseling corn at 12 years old then when I turned 16 I was working in a restaurant. Being a teenager every cent I earned went on my back. Had to have those clothes! Ahhh those poodle skirts!!

Clair and Joe, I’m hearing that, I worked for myself since I was 15__when I needed money, I’d hand make quilts and quilted purses and sold them at the church bazaars. I’d paint for neighbors, cut grass, hell I still cut grass for my Moms & Dads neighbor, up until they passed away a little over 9 years ago.

Claire JoeH, “Fruitcakes”, that’s a good one…..

And just happens to be the home of the world’s banking cartels…Hmmmm

castaway__Once a Redneck always one!

castaway,
shot my first 22 at about six or seven. I shot my first squirrel with the same gun at ten. yeah, I can hunt and survive in the wilds. After I got out of the service, a group of us would go up to upper Michigan and eat what we caught on a line, shot with a gun and what flour and other consumables we could pack in for two weeks. We never starved or even got real hungry!!

The first time I’d written to my reps they put a tail on us….

AngelW – Are you serious?

Yes I am serious!__I thought it was just me at first, but I’ve NEVER been paranoid about anything in my life__ but it kept happening, phone calls, people I’ve never heard of asking weird questions_Weird choppers buzzing the house__
As a hobby, I’m KJ/DJ 8 hours a week__A supposed patron at one of the bars I work, even went as far to say he was from the Fed?__They showed up twice__BTW_The four page letter I sent the reps was not pleasant, by any means,_-But the letter certainly could NOT have been perceived as a threat__ that was 18 months ago. It has since stopped__NOW ALSO__ this all took place right around the time, Jihad Jane was picked up, in a nearby town in our area__I kinda wondered if they thought I was involved with her!_ Which is pretty damn funny__I don’t like whats going on in Washington, but I sure as hell would NEVER start anything or threaten anyone.

Angel–You have got to be kidding? I hope so. Let me know–

The reason why I want to know is because we have been getting phone calls for the past month–my husband is here during the day and when he answers whoever it is hangs up. We get them at night too. Same thing-when we answer they hang up. Maybe we are being paranoid but I don’t like it one bit. We make sure someone is here all the time. There have been a lot of home invasions on the west side of town and we are on the west side. The ultra rich live farther west. I kid you not, so far there have been 60 home invasions within the last month and a half–in our area and the wealthy area. The cops have found no suspects. My husband is not as strong as he used to be, but he has his “you know whats” close by. And he sure knows how to use them. A person has to be careful. I think people are getting desperate. Maybe I am crazy but it does not scare me, let them try to get into my home-they will be in for a big surprise. Don’t laugh when I say this but remember the movie “Home Alone”? We have a few surprises ready. They are my son’s brilliant ideas and he is one smart guy. He has the same things at his house. I call him “007.”

Clair Thats is one of 2 things. Its either someone looking to break in when you arent at home. Or like in my case its a phone company fopaw. I recently have gotten a new number and what I found out it was a recycled one. I would get phone calls all the time looking for 3 diffrent people.Fun when the bill collectors call and you have to break the news to them they have the wrong number lol. Check into getting caller I.D and when you catch one of thoes numbers do like I did and look it up in the Yellow pages online. Can help set your mind at ease if nothing else:) Mike L.

No I’m not kidding!

Angel– How long did this go on?

MikeL– I already have caller ID and the phone numbers do not come up. It always says unknown caller. I guess I should go ahead and have my phone number changed but gads I hate to do that. I will call AT&T tomorrow and see what can be done.

Unknown usually means some auto dialer has gotten your number. Computer sales pitches are so fun to get during dinner or when your fast asleep. Most of the time they are programmed for 3 to 4 rings then hang up. Most likely its a glitched one. Mike L.

Claire, about 4-6 months, my tax returns were held up for that time too.

joanna,
think so?? go to highschool games and watch the kids while the anthem is played! most of the crowd as well!! I’m from just east of Cleveland BTW!!

That “home boy” means civil war.

Anybody got a new firing pin for a .38??? But, no ammo anymore either! So just kidding anyhow.

How about a bottle of Diesel with a fuse down the hatch of the tank?

Hard to defend when all the weapons are gone!

Lewis,
If you need 38 ammo come to Ohio. They don’t ID to buy it!!

Crossbows and blow guns might be easier to make ammo for, cause bullets would soon run out and be hard to come by after a short while. Plus they are not as noisy.

Violence is rarely the answer. Most often people just trade one corrupt leader for another. And judging from the polls, we are a long way from having the kind of numbers necessary to win any confrontation, political or otherwise, with certainty.
The best bet we have is to educate our children and the electorate to the reality of Big Government and hope someday to achieve those numbers of informed people. Most important is to work hard to diffuse the propaganda machine that is Public Education.

DaveH – Right you are.

There is always another tyrant ready to step forward during times of destabilization and mayhem.

Violence must be the last resort.

Kate8–I’ll drink to that. Apple cider, that is!! lol

Eddie, eddie, eddie….are you able to go back into the past and change what is, or are you just happy to compound the error as much as possible?

It does not help to blame the past UNLESS you learn thereby.

So far I have seen little if any change in you and your positions supporting what is happening NOW as the evils of the past, and justifying it by hollering about folks in the past.

If you did not just love it, you would join those who want to change the future, and have hopefully learned from the past. But I am afraid you have only learned to complain, not clean up and change.

Lewis,Lewis,Lewis.,Cheney was the big pusher behind the Patriot Act which has helped set us on this course. This Act needs to be changed by acknowledging where it came from. If Obama is adding to it then he needs to be taken to task on what we are loosing.

Eddie, we’ve been trying to take Bambi to task, if you take your head out your azz you may be able see that!

We are waiting with bated breath for you to hop to it. Been 10+ months now. What are you waiting for?

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2010-02-27-Patriot-Act_N.htm

I’m with Lewis, Eddie. Finger-pointing does not change anything. If you want change, quit wasting your time arguing about who caused the problem, and instead devote that energy to correcting it.

eddie47d,

You will be happy to hear that INTERPOL may issue a warrant for that creep’s arrest sometime in the near future on bribery charges, he was indicted in Nigeria.

http://www.examiner.com/democrat-in-las-veg

Eddie, The fact is Cheny and his defence contractors are still behind this. I remember seeing something like these trailors posted outside of bases in Iraque.He also worked hand in hand with Rove on the defeat of true conservitive canidates during the last election. We are trying to clean our house of these Rino’s as much as we can. Here is maby where you and I differ on an opinion.I think Obama was more than happy to have the framework for the Patriot act in place when he came to office.All he really had to do at that point was to start implimenting it. Where we want to take him to task is the violation of basic human rights. No way when we pass from place to place do we need cameras watching our every move. I personally bont want to have to pass a bio scanner every time I want to go to an event. And never should we bow to being X-rayed if we want to go on a plane. Mike L.

Vickie; Obama’s 1 year extention should expire on 4/26/11. I didn’t agree with the Patriot Act or his extention.

mike writes:

You can probably change that to a “know”. The evidence is in the vote.
http://educate-yourself.org/cn/patriotact20012006senatevote.shtml

One of the few times he did NOT vote “present”. Sigh.

(The astute observer will note that Obama did NOT vote for the Patriot Act since he was not a Senator at the time. He did however vote for its renewal in March 2006 and then as President he voted with his signature as President to extend some of it yet again.
Pretty clear that he liked it.)

Carole,
I hate to burst your bubble but the examiner is just a glorified opinion site!!!

“Carole,

Um…. While it may be true that the examiner, like most msm, has a lot of opinion and opinion pieces and they may not be properly labeled they are still a news outlet. With respect to Cheney the news appears to be quite valid.

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/dick-cheneys-bribery-charges-leads-to-the-most-hysterical-on-air-debate-ever/

Not that I am likely to take seriously anything out of Nigeria. The home of the email scam and a culture of corruption.

“This Act needs to be changed by acknowledging where it came from.”

eddie, that statement doesn’t even make sense.

Damn! I keep telling you to CLOSE THE GATE!!!! edddduuuhhhh got in again!

Joe Hemroid is bent over again and trying to catch his breath. Stand up and get some air flowing to that noggin of yours.

no eddduuuhhhh! I got my wind, I’m just tryin to pick up that pea brain of yours that you dropped. It ain’t easy without a magnifying glass either, let me tell you!!!

Eddie It’s time to move forward.

Liberals have been saying that for 100 years. Glad you are on board.

If you call forcing your way on others and stealing their money “moving forward”, Eddie , then I guess Liberals are indeed moving forward.

Thank you for reminding us.

Yet again.

Only one Democrat Senator voted against the Patriot Act in 2001.
And they had their chance to abolish it under Obama in 2009, but didn’t. So quit pretending that the Democrats believe in Freedom. They don’t.

Truesoy,

You made some very good points. I have talked to Russians who immigrated here years ago and they all said we are beginning to look more an more like the country they thought they had escaped.

As long as we keep dividing ourselves, we are doomed.

Carole – The problem with that is that you liberal’s idea of ‘uniting’ is that conservatives cave in, compromise, cross the aisle and do it your way.

Until liberals start to give up on their idea of force and control, I say that conservatives block, obstruct and hold to no and HELL NO.

When conservatives have power liberals whine about having a voice, being allowed input, yada yada. And they get it.

When liberals rule, they completely shut out and shut down the right. They use every dirty trick in the book.

Unite? Unless liberals smarten up, it will be when hell freeze over. There is no compromise to freedom.

truesoy,

In equating Conservatism with communism, you are obviously one stupid SOB. Learn to use a dictionary, learn to read, and learn about history, in short, learn not to be such an obvious liar.

“Food for thought:… it was ‘liberals’ that fought for many of the civil rights enjoy by many today, like the woman’s right to vote. This a right that while taken for granted today was opposed by conservatives at the time…”

Take a look at http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/mod/1920womensvote.html if you want to see who voted for the 19th Amendment in the Senate: it passed 56 to 25, i.e., 36 Repubs and 20 Dems. for, 8 Repubs and 17 Dems against. You can thank the Repubs, for the most part, for women’s right to vote.

“Talk about biting the hand that fed you. The same goes for other civil rights/liberties enjoy by many, including ‘conservatives’!!!.”

Democrats consistently voted against ALL civil rights laws, from Reconstruction through the most recent and famous ones, the Civil rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Repubs voted 83% on these bills, the Dems almost 20% less.

So yes, the Repubs, like the Founders of our Country, were liberals in their thinking when they went against the Dems to bring in civil rights and women’s rights. In short, when it comes to individual liberties, the Repubs will fight the good fight, as the true Repubs are doing now, to prevent further erosion of individual freedoms the Dems would take away from us.

Vigilant – Liberals have never let truth get in their way.

Great post. We’ve reiterated this history over and over here and, still, the Left comes back with the same old lies.

Conservatives have always promoted equality for all. Slave owners were democrats, the KKK was democrat, and democrats opposed civil rights. They only got involved when they saw a movement to exploit for political power. Blacks at that time were members of the Republican party, which was started as a political voice for freed slaves.

What dems did was create a new system of slavery in order to keep control of blacks. They accomplished this by keeping them dependent on the government, thinking they couldn’t make it on their own. This was the perfect opportunity for communists to take over the party.

Liberal democrats, or Progressives, have completely turned truth and morality upside down, with the very intent of taking us right to where we are now.

AHHH, Vigilant, YOU MISSED THE POINT COMPLETELY, I, at no time made references to neither democrats, nor republicans. I made references to LIBERALS, whether republicans or democrats, but, liberals never-the-less. Yes, once upon a time there were republicans with share ‘social-liberal’ ideas; though in todays United States they are an endangered species; and probably it would be easier to find a ‘unicorn’ than a ‘social-liberal’ republican.

Al Sieber—It may be too late for the “powers that be” but never too late for Americans like us. Never give up the ship–stand up for what we believe in–and let us not be defeated. They “work” for us, not themselves. They have gotten by with their shenanigans far too long. They trying to run us into the ground, and we must not let them succeed. We have voices, we must let them know we will not be beaten into submission. The problem is that we must be united, stand up against them as one united force, not divided. The old adage–divided we fail is very true. One must forget “party affiliation.” If you stop and think about this –”they” have done a good job at keeping Americans divided.

Claire, you’re right, we out number them, and we still have the 2nd amendment. we need to get away from the Democrat/ Republican parties, I have. well, off to work, have a nice day.

Al Sieber,
The problem with the second as it sets now is that with required registration, they know where each and every weapon bought after like 1960(?). Unless you bought it from an estate or relative or at a flea market, then they know you have it!!! If they decide to take over, they will come to you!

Joe H — the way I look at it, let them come. My husband and I will be ready.

JoeH, all my weapons I have were bought or traded from friends. I have no physical address, I live way out in the mountains, Dan Az. knows about where I live, very rugged terrain, no law, they won’t come out here. very few people know where I live, by invitation only. the only people around are other miners.

Al, Sounds about like where I live here in Tennessee. I can walk out my door and be in the foothills of the smokies in about 10 min by foot.Three rivers and 2 lakes within a horse ride of my community. We arent miners here but the decendents of Dirt farmers. And If I had too I could do it again. I am Cursed/Blessed with a high I.Q and an insatiable thirst for Knowledge. But I was also ADD before they knew what that was. I jokeingly tell people sometimes I am the worlds worst nightmare. A hillbilly with a 180 I.Q. But I learned long ago about love and respect from an older generation I was blessed to be raisd in. Angel Knows I have given her some of my background. I look on whats happening today with a proufound sadness. I see these people every day who have put their faith in things. Not family friends and loved ones. We as a race are capeable of many things but we seem to be hell bent on destroying ourselves. All I can do some days is pray and lift up my eye’s to heaven and place it in his hands. And feel sorry for thoes that may never know the peace that brings sometimes. So with Love and respect to all in this holiday season. I wish you to be happy in all things.Mike L.

Mike, some people can’t stand to be away from civilization, I love it, all my life I’ve worked out doors, I wouldn’t have it any different. my closes neighbor is 2.5 miles away, over a small mountain range thats why I live and work here. guess I’m a “Hillbilly too”.

Al Sieber,
It’s not that I like civilization so much, it’s where I work. I make, as a welder the most money in a urban setting! My wife’s job of 26 years is here as well!!

Living in the wilderness is great, but it isn’t the protection it once was. Trust me, with satellite surveillance, they know where you are.

Have you looked on Google Earth?

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

Kate8, alot of miners out here live underground, believe me I can hide. I’m not worried about them coming after me, they’ll go for the cities first. I’ll give you the Lat. Long. in the next post, see if you can find me. my e-mail address says N. Nevada, only Dan Az. knows about where I live. speaking of Dan, my son is here from Williams, I’ll let him know where you work, if you don’t mind, and hook you two up.

Kate8, here’s the location, 114*27’30″Longitude, 35*00′N.latitude (the 35th parallel).

JoeH, you have to go or live where the work is, once in a while I need a good welder/ fabricator. God Bless You guys.

I work and live in town–and now my husband is retired. We always planned to retire and go back to the country but it did not happen. With all of his health issues there is no way we could move to live on my property in the country which is an hour’s drive away. In the country a hospital is 30-35 minutes away and it is a “rural” hospital that is not equipped to handle major issues. Here in town a hospital is 10 minutes away. We have no choice but to remain in town. We are disapointed, but at least my husband has a better chance here in town if one of his aneurysms bursts, and when he goes on dialysis.

Al,
back atcha bud!!!

Al – I used to have Google Earth – my brother downloaded it for me. I never really knew how to use it so I uninstalled it quite a while back. It took up too much space on my cheap laptop. And I am definitely low tech.

I also know several miners who live in the mountains a couple of hours from here. One lives halfway down a huge canyon, never leaves, and gets snowed in in the winter. He has friends who 4wheel food in to him every couple of weeks. And he’s pretty up in years now.

Well then Al,lets at least die trying and have dignified death.

Then again, you voted for the republicans. Good going. That will really fix the problem. The joke is on you!

truesoy-what is your problem you sound just like the obama administrateion everything is Bush’s fault! For heavens sake he hasn’t been president for over two years now GET OVER IT! I the WH wanted to they could have changed any of Bush’s policies that they didn’t like, they chose not to! We are heading into the day when Obama will say now that we have everything I want I am now the KING or the Dictator and you will do what I tell you. I did not vote for Republicans I voted for the people I thought would do a better job for us the people who pay their salary-therefore if I dont’ like what they do I can vote them out! You sure sound like one hell of a liberal you should move to Washington you’d be right at home.

Democrat? Republican? One and the same, in many ways. The joke is on all of us.

Claire, Right you are. Still, there are many who just refuse to see it.

But then, when your existence depends on keeping certain forces in power…

judy,
change it?!?!? They strengthened it!!! They made it WORSE! I am in wait-n-see mode right now as to what the new guys are gonna do. If they don’t drastically change things and we can still vote, I will vote against ALL OF THEM!!

Judy,
trusob not only sounds like Nobummer, it’s his kid!!!

castaway, I would rather go out fighting for my freedom, then die begging on my knees.

Al Sieber– I agree. Geez, I have agreed with a lot of posters today!

The American people have to put the fear of God into these weaserls. After Congress breaks for recess we should organize and picket outside their homes. This is legal. No laws brokn. Them little rats will be scared out of their wits.

For some time I have been using the term “DemoPublicans”, as they are not really opposed to each other, only to Conservatives and honest men.

Too bad our education does not teach people to see truth, but teaches them the two headed party is the right way to go!

Robert S – It would be interesting to see how long it would be before those picketing would be dispersed or arrested.

This is not the true America any longer.

Robert S – These weasels are going to go along with whoever carries the biggest stick (and dangles the biggest carrot).

That is not us. They have nothing but contempt for us.

They know that they can hitch their wagons to the world masters and (hopefully, for them) live large while we perish, or go down with the unwashed.

Which would you expect them to choose?

I’m sorry to say, I feel that too AL.

Angel,
Do you remember when bush tried to pass Amnesty? what did we do? We started a campaign to show them we would fire all of them if it passed. What happened?? IT DIDN’T PASS!!! We Can Do This Again If We Get Organized!!!!!Start writing, start Emailing, Start phoning!! don’t stop till they get the idea we will fire them if they don’t start representing the PEOPLE!!

Carole– And I agree with much of what you say.

Compliments of the Bush administration!

You’re starting to sound like broken record. Try a different tack please…..you’re becoming boring with the same ol’ same ol’.

ValDM,
Bad news, I think he’s quit drinkin the kool-ade. now he’s takin kool-ade enemas!!!

And you still don’t get it, no matter how many times you are told! But the day will come when you’ll ‘wise-up’; and then you’ll be angry (at yourself) for having been so ‘gullible’ for so long!.

Personally, I will not let any party take control of my life. Not anymore. I will not be brainwashed into thinking their way is the “only” way. I have a mind of my own and I will not be swayed into believing their diatribe. I do not “blame” a certain party, how can I when both parties have caused this chaos America is in? I have voted for Democrats and Republicans during my entire life, and I am disgusted with all of them. The plight America is in did not happen overnight–it has been coming on for decades. Blame a certain party? No, I blame myself for voting for these jerks. I helped to put them in office, all of us did. So now we are paying the piper. What do we do next?

Wrong, Claire. I did not put them in office. Instead, for years, I voted no. And was of course faulted for not buying into either suck-@$$ party platform. (“Well, if you didn’t vote you’ve no right to complain!” goes the tiresome refrain. I get it, my fault they jerked out my fingernails, I was given the chance to vote for which ones they’d take the pliers to next, and I refused to participate in the process.)

When I did finally vote, I voted against the other guy, the lessor of two evils (I’m basically an Independent, although the last time I registered it was as a Repub, thus by state rules I could vote in the primary for Paul, the Elder). Or else I voted Libertarian, though we all know they never had a shot and while I hold with Libertarian principles, it seems half the horses they bring to the gate are running on three legs.

But no, Claire, or anyone else who considers group-think to be the ruling force and hence some sort of group-guilt-trip we must all embark upon. I didn’t do it.

And if you think for half-a-sec: we have everything from illegal income taxes and a privately owned national bank, to electronic evesdropping to healthcare “reform” all of which the American public were vociferously opposed to, and we got them anyway and they are NOT going away anytime soon. Don’t tell me my vote would have counted or that the “majority” actually decides or has for a long time actually decided anything in this country.

What’s happening in our airports and bus and train stations (courtesy of the likes of Chertoff) is just more of the same (and is probably a diversion from something worse, anyway–like the Chinese and Russians dumping the US dollar, a MAJOR development–considering the titillating MSM airplay about grandma and baby groping; the whole thing starts to look like a put-up job). We’ve had no say for quite some time. When you’re surrounded for a group grope by people with guns, you either submit, or take it to the next level (and the first time someone actually does, they will use that as justification for doing it all in the first place).

Or you can always vote for the other party, who just happens to have brought all this $#!+ into play in the first place. Or vote for the previous party, who set the stage before that. Or…the administration before… But, you either get it or you don’t.

You’re still playing onesie twosies, folks.

Rather, being played. We may have through group complacence brought it upon ourselves, fell for crap our forefathers-and-mothers would’ve stuck a musket or pistol in these bastards’ faces for, but no way in hell we voted for it.

Well said, AJP.

BTW, a few days ago, early morning, a shiny new van pulled into my driveway (I’m well off the main road). It sat there for a short time, and then backed out. I made a note of the license number: 6EYE**6.

I tried to find out to whom the van was registered, but can’t do it in CA. It is an obvious custom plate. Who chooses EYE?

It’s bugged me ever since. I wouldn’t have paid much attention except for the EYE part, and no one EVER comes back here.

AJP–Good post, and I agree with what you said. I always felt I should vote even though most of the time I did not want to. My post was mainly about the Democrat and Republican parties, and I guess I should not have included everyone into the same category. Now I have egg on my face. Sorry.
Although I have voted for a third party in the past, this is the first year that I voted for several third party candidates. Here in Illinois, I have become weary of voting for the “lesser of two evils.” It is a tragic state of affairs.

truesoy_RIIIIIIIIght!?__oh brother!

Truesoy is still in the “blame bush” phase. Eventually truesoy will notice that bush is not currently the President. I have often tormented my liberal friends with the observation that the CURRENT administration has not exactly rushed to eliminate all the anti-freedom actions of the previous RINO.

Gee SoyBoy…thanks again for the Parrot act. You got anything to say worth hearing or that we don’t already know?
Rrrrrraaaack! Bush did it! Rrrraaaack!

CalWest – I don’t think it matters what you call it. The differences between those things are mostly rhetorical. Tyranny is tyranny, and the effects are the same.

“It is not socialism OR communism…IT IS FASCISM!”
AKA “Bosom Buddies”

Fascism is socialism with national limitations. Both are “left wing”. Fascism is government control of “private” industry; “communism” (international socialism) is a government seizure, confiscation, and total control of private property (nationalization).

The most common form of “Fascism” is “corporatism”. A “corporation” is an extension of the state. It is an “artificial” entity (existing only in contemplation of law) created by the state. It is not the “principal” of the state (the People), but its “agent”, called by attorneys a “person”. Its purpose is to serve (raise revenue) for the state. A corporation does not have “rights”, its powers are enumerated and limited in its corporate charter. As the “agent” of the state, it must obey the commands of its (state) “principal”.

We are just a declaration of “emergency measures” (war powers), away from total govt control. The Head of State becomes Commander in Chief of the military and rules by decree (executive orders) during the duration of the “emergency”.

Dale on the left coast,

You would have more credibility if you would recognize Fascism can come from the right or the left. It is actually common for it to come from the right, that is not even a rare thing.

Carole, Fascism can come from right or left, but most often it comes from the left.

Jog my memory here. Give an example of right-wing fascism in recent times? Say, the past century or two.

I’ve always found it convenient to view the spectrum of political persuasion not as a line but a circle. The top of the circle would be pretty much what’s considered “centrist” in a free society. Go to the right or left and you have conservatism and liberalism respectively. As the more extreme forms of each philosophy reach the bottom of the circle, they meet.

Thus, it doesn’t matter whether the bottom of the circle is approached from the left or the right, the end result is the same: statism.

CalWest,

Thank you.

Carol,
I, and all the people I’ve spoken with, agreed with you that ‘facism’ is a ‘right wing’ derivative; and that it is the direction the ‘right’ is moving this country to.

truesoy__ and if Bush would’ve just set on his azz and done nothing after 9/11, you would’ve complained about that too_Some folks ya can’t please can ya?

Angel, Sadly, the democrats I know vote based on one thing: the check from the government.

I just spoke to a retiree on Social Security who was lamenting how she hopes unemployment gets exented again soon, because she collects both! With no intent of ever working again.

Too many people (Lefties mainly) couldn’t care less about the state of our nation. Just keep the money coming and their votes are assured.

Angel,
It’s just like I said about New Orleans. If Bush had went in without invite by the govornor, he would have been impeached. Since he waited for the invite, he doesn’t care about the people of New Orleans!!! He can’t win on that one!!

Joe, I get annoyed about NO and the debacle Katrina and blaming bush___I remember seeing thousands of school buses swamped up to they’re emergency doors, that could’ve been used to bus people that had no transportation the hell outta there!___What happened to the brain dead officials down there?_-They obviously had no evacuation plan in place, they knew it, so to save face, they Blamed Bush!__The idiots!__Yeah we’re the dumbazzes though?!

Angel–You are correct. Katrina was a disaster–made worse by the people that were in office at the time in that state. The mayor appeared to be a real dingbat. Maybe I am wrong on this, but it appeared to me that none of them knew what they were doing. And if I remember correctly, didn’t the governor refuse help from Bush?

Truesoy,
What do you expect what with all the people like Heil Hannity, Lush Noballs, Beck and all the others who constantly try to divide the people in this country in so many different ways, and they are very successful at it.

Carole–I used to listen to some of the radio shock jocks but I don’t anymore. A part of me thinks that these people contribute to the problem. They are keeping us divided, none of them want Americans to unite as a whole, they only want Americans to unite for a certain political party-the Democrats or the Republicans. There is so much talk about the NWO–could it be that these people are part of the scheme of things? There is no way we can beat the system without being united. I believe Americans should unite–all of us– and present our case to the powers that be. After all, we do outnumber them. It can be accomplished, it is a matter of IF every American wants to join hands and go for it.

Carole, Funny you didn’t mention any of those on the Left who seek to divide.

You betray yourself.

Carole betrayed herself a long time ago, Kate.
What good does it do, Carole, to cup your hands over your eyes and ears? How can you ever learn anything that way?
I have listened to arguments from all sides, and I certainly don’t believe something just because Beck, or even John Stossel (my hero), says it. But I can tell you one thing – the Liberals very rarely make any sense. Their statements are based on emotions and desires rather than facts, and they generally only are accepted by those who lack knowledge and base their decisions on hopes and dreams.
To wit, the True Conservatives (Libertarians, not right-wingers) allow their policies to be accepted voluntarily by the citizenry. The Liberals, on the other hand, must force their policies on the people because they know not enough people would buy into their hare-brained schemes voluntarily. Liberals first choice is to use the Federal Government to ply their mistaken policies as they know that on a state level when their policies fail the other states would quickly learn from those errant Liberal states. If Liberal policy is so wonderful, why can’t they let the citizens see them in action in those states before they are widely adopted?

Well said, DaveH.

I know where Carole comes from. But she’s been trying to ingratiate herself here somewhat. Liberals can never hide their true colors for long.

That liberals have to work behind closed doors and protected by the media should be a stunner to any sane sane person. Oh wait, it is.

Well DaveH, I was wondering about Carole myself.

Oops. Don’t get sucked into this, Carole. You’re right about all those clowns, now come up with some clever names for Matthews, Olberman, Maddow, Blitzer and the rest of the liberal crowd of clever windbags.

I think you’ve already said elsewhere in this thread that both sides of the political equation are shills for higher PTB, paid to play us. Which they in fact, are. Cover your bets, girl.

(PS: I don’t think you’re a troll, I could be wrong but I’ve read some of your stuff, yet you may be trolling in deep waters here, without waders. Cuidado: Pirhanas Aqui.)

Indeed they are. It’s mainstream media. The Right has a lock on your blood pressure, like a jolt of strong coffee and a cigarette. The Left wants to slow you down with fresh air and herbal tea. The centrists want us to drink decaf and puff electronic cigarettes (which actually work, by the way, nevermind).

Let’s go three dimensional. STEP OFF THE LINE AND JUMP INTO THE AIR.

Good. You’ve, for the moment, made it out of the linear matrix. Your critical thought processes can now begin, Grasshopper. You landed. Look at your feet. You are off the linear grid, yet you are still only in the second level of dimension.

(No, the pebble remains in my hand. First you must learn to THINK in two dimensions, then later in three. It will be a long time before you can snatch the pebble.)

We’ve been trained by the PTB to think on one dimensional level, left, right, center. Either/or, or perhaps some wishy washy place in between. But completely linear, Left/Right. Aristotelian logic. Yes/no, on/off, good/bad. Supposedly, us, the dumbass sheeple.

The people who apparently run $#!+ around here know better, they operate the board, which is actually two dimensional (plane geometry). They can move the end points of left/right around on the board, and bring stuff into play, down into the one dimensional level, that no one in the first dimension saw coming. They can introduce stuff which will impact the Left/Right line at any point, skew, stretch, curve, warp… The political machine at work.

The people who really run $#!+ can drop anything they want onto the board from a three dimensional level, level two players never know when it’s coming, but when it hits the board they’ve got to deal with it, either store it or use it on the linear (first dimensional) playing field.

So, who really owns the board? When you can answer that question, Grasshopper, then you can snatch the pebble from my hand.

Sorry that response belongs somewhere else, but this thread is getting out of control, so who give’s a $#!+? Worth considering, however.

Average Joe, keep up the good posts, even if they’re out of order.

Carole,
you made a mistake. It’s Bawney “no balls” Fwanks!!!

Al and TIME___Some are waking up, we went to the Movies for Becks BROKE last night__met alot of nice folks, who are scared as hell. I told them, I don’t like it either, but we can’t afford to be scared, we’ve got to be prepared!

Angel – That’s a big part of the problem. People are scared, and they turn away from things that are too scary. We are a nation of wimps.

Today’s mush-heads have been taught that atrocities never happened, that TPTB are benevolent, that they are about what’s best for us. While I understand how this is more comforting than the truth, it is a false sense of security and a trap.

Those of us who have been willing to face the terrifying truth and walk through the fear will be the best prepared for what’s coming.

kate8, Whatever lies ahead, we’ll all be forced to look, even the wimps. All I can say I ain’t going down easy!__May the Good Lord be with us!

Angel and Kate8–I won’t go down easy either. This probably sounds goofy but I am no longer afraid of anything. Let them do what they will, and no doubt they will. I hope and pray they will find out they have bitten off more than they can chew.

Claire – I know what you mean. I feel the same way – bring it on.
In the words of Patriot Patrick Henry, “Give me liberty or give me death”.

I’m sick of government intrusion. I refuse to be just another mind-numbed sheeple. Who the heck do these madmen think they are? They have overstepped the limits of human decency, and consider themselves gods. Well, Satan does, indeed, rule the physical realm, for now. But then, we read the Book and know the end of the story.

Or should I say the Beginning!

Godspeed.

Kate8 & Claire__I’ve been a servent all of my life to my sick family_I stared death in the face twice, had 5 surgeries to keep from going blind__Not looking for sympathy or an atta girl,_ I made it__So I look at what were facing as its one more thing to over come___”God said he is with those who overcome”__I’m in it til it’s over!

Kate8 and Angel: I am proud to know strong women like the both of you. You both have made my day.

You too Clair, you have strength too!

Claire and Angelw – I admire you both, and I always enjoy posting with you.

Those who face mountains of adversity and prevail become strong in character. I would guess that God has been preparing us all along for this time.

Angel,
Here’s hopin you, Claire and kate8 continue to “overcome” as I have kinda gotten used to post to all three of you! God Bless and Gods speed!

Joe H – I count you among those I most admire here, as well. You are one in a million.

Godspeed to you, too, fellow patriot.

JoeH–Back at you, my friend.

Kate8, Clint Eastwood said in a interview not long ago that we were a “Nation of Wimps”, and we needed to wake up. strange you said the same thing, you’re right.

JoeH, Right back at’cha friend!

Carole – People will only unite when both sides perceive the threat. Until that time, the polarization will continue to increase.

Kate8–Your words are very true.

Kate8 you are very right, and right now it seems like the conservatives and libertarians are the only ones that percieve this fact!!

Evil dictators,can not do what they are doing.UNLESS…they have idiots,willing to sell their asssssssssss!!! for a envolope of money!!!!

Obama is a puppet. Bush was a puppet.

You must be new, here. Half the people in this thread know this, half refuse to listen, and half don’t give a fBLEEPk.

(These are rough numbers…I’m in the first half, I’d put Kate8 in the first third.)

sean – There has never been a shortage of people who are willing to sell their said a##es.

Watch it, there are monitors. That’s @$$es.

Joe? This is Joe H it is AZZES

They are saving us from Freedom and Prosperity, Al.
Even the most Ignorant Liberals should be able to pick up on the fact that the larger Government grows, the more problems there are for them to “keep us safe” from. It is a self-perpetuating mechanism that only benefits the Politicians and other Government employees.
But eventually, even the leaders will lose as they drag our economy into the abyss. I’m not sure they care, as long as they are more prosperous than the rest of us. Witness Cuba or many other Socialist countries in the past and present. One would think that the leaders wouldn’t want to kill the Golden Goose. One would think wrong.

DaveH – I listen to the Dems in the Senate blaming the R’s for holding up the passing of the tax extension, etc. Blame, blame, blame. Using the decline of our economy in the past decade as proof that tax cuts don’t work…more blame, blame, blame.

Lies, lies, lies. Tax reduction hasn’t produced a thriving economy because they’ve gone all-out to over-regulate and squash all incentive to keep jobs in America. In fact, they’ve given tax incentives for people to move businesses overseas. They’ve done everything possible to set us up for collapse across the board.

I’m so sick of their twisting and contorting facts, covering their true intent to destroy America. And liberals hang on their every word, repeating the lies over and over. They are shameless.

This world has gone stark, raving mad.

Your right both Bush and Obama have put terrible things in place for the American People.

If they put these scanners all over the country there will be a huge backlash. I know there’s many people who won’t take it. Myself included.

I don’t want to be scanned and intergated daily, for ‘terrist’ threats, when I’m more likely to be killed by a bee sting than a terrisist.

Maybe the TSA should protect us from bees it would be a better use of our money, our dignity, and it wouldn’t set up a system that is ripe for abuse.

TSA should be our new honey bee stings protector! For extra tax money they could throw in protection from hornets and biting ants!

Go America!

Christin – These madmen no longer even make a pretext of respecting our dignity. And they are having fun watching our useless protests.

Sorry. Chris.

Kate8 I feel the same way everytime I send my representatives an email, I feel like they are laughing at us.

Angel– You know, I feel the same way. I truly believe they think we are too stupid to realize what the hell is going on. And this honks me off even more. I can tell you I will not give up sending them emails and letters. Never. We all need to bug the crap out of them on a continual basis. I used to get a reply in the form of a photcopied letter. I don’t even get that anymore. I get nothing.

Claire, I’ve noticed the same thing! Lately, I get no response from them at all, not even the ones I voted for. This includes federal, state and local! What’s up with that?

I also can’t help thinking that, having voiced my opposition to things they are doing, my name goes on a dissident list.

Heaven help us, but we can’t back down now.

Kate8–We will never back down. Ever. Remember, there is safety in numbers and basically we are here for the same reasons. So we will continue to bug the hell out of them.

Chris, didn’t you get the memo? The Powers That Be in fact ARE protecting you from bee stings. It’s a logical certainty that Collapsed Hive Disorder, or whatever the acronym-manufacturers are calling it, has drastically reduced the number of bees available and therefore likely to sting you. Our world governments, hand-in-glove with Monsanto and their GMO plants and accompanying pesticides, are on the job, statistically protecting you from anaphylactic shock.

Saving you and the rest of the agrarian-based civilized world for slow death by starvation.

Besides if Chris stays at home there will be less chance of being stung by what bees are still out there. Of course those pesky back yard gardens that attract bees and other insects just have to go.

Welcome to the list lol. I know it isnt funny but well if I am going to be on a list I want it to be in the book of life. This shell is only temporary anyway. I will enjoy what I can while I am here and meet my maker when he says its time.I belive what I belive and now will untill the day I die. Unlike some out there I finally made peace with it and if it comes to that I will have lived my life to the best of my abilities to be a good person to family and friends. The real ones anyway. I will not bow to this because its of this eartly master anyway.Mike L.

Mike – Amen to that.

BTW, Scripture tells us to ‘hide ourselves for a time”. I have pondered that for some time, and am not sure what it is saying.

Any ideas?

Kate, Ill take a crack at it. That passage was directed at the early christian church. This was at an early stage of christianity at a time where both the jewish people and the Roman empire were persequiteing the christian.They were directed to Hide themselves away for a time to build their stength and knowledge in Christ’s teachings and to re emerge when we finally converted a Roman emperor to christainity. This can be parrelled into todays socity in this way. We as christians are being persequited today. Though not in a physical sense yet.Even thoes that are supposedly of the faith have false teachings in their houses of worship. Ever notice how the MEGA churches have begun to look down on their communities when they fight against them for anexing land?We have Pat Robertson representing us on television. That man cannot utter 2 sentences without asking for money. We have the Muslims out there as well who have a mandate to convert us or kill us. Much like the Romans and Jews of old.Jews of today have a more conservitive attitude twords us.We are at a time in christianity where we once again hide ourselves away in little pockets where true teachings are taking place.We are again to emerge when the time is right for us once again to lead. We as true christians are taught to love the sinner and pray for him/her and to hate the sin. We are to be humble and to serve others less fortunate than ourselves. Most of all we are to stand on Christ’s teachings and be a light unto the world. Mike L.

Mike – Makes sense.

The words actually come from the O.T., but I understand that they are prophetic to our time as well as the past.

Yea I goofed a bit there should have read it first. I was thinking it came from Hebrews but my pastor set me right on it tonight. But I think the logic still applies. It was the jews who were being persiqueted by the Egyptians at that time. Looks like just about everyone has had it in for christians and Jews at one time or another. Mike L.

truesoy,
Wrong man! Even Biden said that they just took what he and committee produced and implimented his idea!! HIS WORDS DUDE!!!

Truesoy,

I wish we could all just realize both conservatives and liberals have been hoodwinked and I wish we could all get past this nastiness toward each other IT IS EVIL.

AND I KNOW I DO IT TOO, please call me on it when I do, but nicely LOL.

Carole, We arent so far apart that there isnt a middle ground for us to meet.You are right when you say its both sides of the isle.Hopefully these folks that are takeing office in january are a diffrent breed of statesmen. Maby then if they represent themselves well more to the left of center will see we do actually care about people we just have a little diffren view of how we get there. Mike L.

truesoy, it don’t make a damn who started DHS and TSA Obama is in charge now and has not only continued them he is expanding their reach.

Listen up Soy boy…no one gives a damn who did what or when they did it. We’re dealing with NOW. Get a mitt and get in the game or STFU.

Well I sure hope your truth shoots real bullets.

Im with you castaway!!

Your bullets are useless against the forces being wielded. They can take you out without you ever knowing you were in their sights.

We have only one hope now, folks, and that is The One Hope. And I don’t mean Odumbo.

I’m telling you again, it is on the inner plane where we will win. You can’t fight them toe to toe. We have to align with a Force greater than they. Satan always tries to imitate God’s Power on the physical plane, but that’s all it is: a cheap imitation.

If we learn this, we win even in death.

Wellsaid Kate8__hey_ did ya go see Becks BROKE at the movies?

Angelw – Unfortunately, I didn’t. I’m not much for travel these days.

I’ll bet it was outstanding. I hope to hear more.

He ought to webcast these things, as well. More of us would have access.

It was awesome kate8_-I’ll repeat what I had said, farther down on the thread____glad we went__we met some wonderful people, all scared as hell__we decided together, we’d be courageous (which is being scared as hell, but doing what we gotta do anyway!)and get prepared!

AngelW – Did Beck talk about things he doesn’t talk about on the air? If so, like what?

I was taken aback by his back-peddling yesterday on TV. He made a point of reiterating his apology for saying that Obama is a racist, that he was wrong to have said it. And also that he believes that Obama was born in the US and is a citizen. Gag.

Kate8–My husband must have seen it too because he mentioned it to me. Sooner or later it seems they all backpeddle.

Kate8, Some, but he’s still a lil’ tight lipped_ I have a sense, he’ll be revealing more info after the Holidays as he indicated!

AngelW – Nothing gets aired without the approval of TPTB, especially on any media outlet.

I was reading about one of Jesse Ventura’s shows, where he had mentioned an ultra-secret society of the elite’s that few ever heard of, and what they were doing. He was forced to remove all reference to it.

If we hear things, no matter what they are, it’s because they allow us to.

Kate8 __I had a conversation with a guy last night, he’s a gay liberal. And calls himself a “Social Liberal”, but also says he’s a “Fiscal Conservative”__I atone that to the fact, he’s gay and wants his rights regardless, so he’ll stay liberal.__He was talking about voting this guy in, and this guy out__and I pleasantly reminded him it didin’t matter who was voted in, there is two agendas in Washington___One they allow us to see, and the one that counts behind the scenes that runs the country._-He looked at me as if he’d seen a ghost.

No, it was YOUR man Biden who wrote this piece of garbage back in the 90′s. Bush only implemented it.

You reap what you sow!

truesoy, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but there are Progressive totalitarians on both sides of the aisle.

This has been under development for DECADES. Presidents are just puppets. Front men. These are the same powers who were behind the rise of Hitler and all tyrants for the past centuries.

It’s so lame that you libs always give Odumbo a pass and use Bush as a default for everything he’s created. Bush didn’t start building a gestapo brigade, BTW, nor did he station NATO troups on US soil, as far as I know. All I do know is that they take their marching orders from the same thugs, and if you would just open your brainwashed eyes you’d start to get a clue.

Kate, some of us know we’re just getting carpal tunnel reiterating this (I wonder why we keep doing it). This Bush vs. Obama, Red vs. Blue obsession has been foisted upon us as though we were oblivious rabid fans at an essentially meaningless school basketball game, while They (the Organizers) pour accelerant behind the bleachers and lock the exits.

I’m fairly sure some of the people here just won’t get it; you’re presenting them with a whole new learning curve, and their minds are already topped off with meaningless, emotionally-charged political nonsense, spoon-fed to them with bunting and balloons.

I begin to wonder whether we’re being duped as well, into trying to wake up hopeless sleepwalkers rather than cutting our losses and simply locking, loading, and tossing more sandbags onto the barricades. Might be a better use of whatever time remains to us.

I know, I do get sucked into it too.

AJP – How right you are.

The leftist loonies seem to be multiplying here, too. I wonder if they’re all located in the same basement. LOL.

The truth is, if we all just ignored them they’d likely give up and move on to greener pastures. They are here only to provoke, and they do succeed, every time.

As I said before, it no longer matters who is in the WH, or who controls congress. They are all bought and corrupted.

Carole Howell, Thanks. I think most of us get that.

As I have said before, it doesn’t change the fact that, among the masses, there IS much ideological difference. Completely opposite approaches to life.

Yes, it is these differences to which politicians pander, seeking to tip the balance of power. When they appeal to people’s innate sense of entitlement and envy, it works every time to render them lazy, mindless and loyal. And marches them, willingly, straight in to their trap of enslavement and death. It’s the oldest trick in the book, and humanity still hasn’t figured it out.

Kate,
Sorry I’m a few days late on my reply, but: If what you say has any truth to it, then, who are these people?; that has been the burning question I’ve been wanting to ask you. Could you be more specific. Is this another conspiracy theory?. You know that a lot these sort of things out there have no basis. Althoug I’ll welcome your answer.

Soy,

These people are haters of God. They worship Satan. The only thing that matters to them is what can they get out of it. They will never in this life be satisfied. Their greed knows no bounds. The apostile Paul tells us in the Holy Scriptures who these people are: Romans 1:18-32.

truesoy – What kind of moniker is that, anyway?

You’d better be careful. That stuff is full of estrogen.

Besides, it’s all GMO now, too.

Kate, Maby he ment Truesoilent,Because he sure seems to have vegatated. My church is going online soon our pastor is a good one. He leads us through the bible and not only tells you he believes but shows you where to back up your beliefs in the bible. I am going to pay to help host it as soon as we get set up. Take up the armor of god and the shield of faith and weild the sword of ritchosness. In these troubled times it may be all we have left is our belivers walk and the support of our beliefs and each other. Mike L.

Mike – May God bless you in your endeavors. The forces of God are rising up.

Truesoy How often does odumbo pay you. Weekly or just one big lump sum?

Who cares who created it? It is there and needs to be abolished. All the finger pointing will get us nowhere. The leaders prosper by keeping us divided.

Dave H.

You are so right.

DaveH–You are correct. We can point the finger all we want, and die doing it with nothing accomplished.

Hey truesoy sauce, Clinton had a lot to do with it, the Omnibus crime bill.

A shooting match. Sparked. I’m afraid it may be a great deal more.

Whether we, many of us, like it or not JC, I fear you may be correct. I live among people who aren’t “arming themselves to the teeth,” mostly they’ve just always lived that way, since the days of Apache raids, cattle rustlers, Mexican banditos and revolutionaries, mountain lions, and bears. But most in the rest of the country should heed such advice as yours.

I might go down in the first volley or two (never step out my door unarmed), unless I see them coming first, but if I do go down hopefully it will not be alone (wouldn’t want my neighbors to have all the fun, and believe me it could get wild and weird out here).

But what I fear most is facing US kids. I’ve no special problem with when they open the border to the well-armed drug cartel armies our governments have sponsored with their ridiculous War On Drugs, or if they send UN or NATO troops (well, no problem beyond having to shoot and run on my own land). I’d just prefer not to have to kill overzealous and undereducated American kids on my property.

But given the circumstances and necessity, and the fact that they would be violating the Constitution, in violation of the oath they took, and in violation of my state ownership rights, I’d do what an American citizen is expected to do in the face of armed criminal or extra-territorial trespass. Defend American soil, defend my ground, defend family and holdings against illegal armed intruders.

Is this wrong for an American to say or do? Perhaps, if he’s declared a terrorist. Which is just what these DC @$$holes would do, try and turn the existence of a vocal dissenter into another Ruby Ridge or Waco situation. Problem is, in my neighborhood? They’ve hundreds of candidates much like me. They’d best come up with a really good story for declaring war on the southwestern “bootheel” of the State of New Mexico. Which is what they would essentially be doing.

One realizes how “terroristic” all this may appear in plain print in our day and age. Imagine how the Declaration of Independence must have seemed to King George of England. I’m only talking about my property rights under New Mexico state law. I’m sure it’s not unlikely I’d be invaded under the newly written laws of La Raza, or a suspension of the posse commitatus ruling, or someone altogether else’s new legislation. But all laws are enforced at gunpoint and my law says please remain off my land unless invited. A law enforced at gunpoint, if need be. Or, I will drop a Molotov cocktail down your hatch at midnight if you really want to play.

Would I do it? I’d have nothing better to do. Could I? In such circumstances, it certainly would be interesting, for all concerned, to find out.

I’ve said it before, however: Let’s not assume that our own kids, if brought home from obvious foreign oil adventures-for-profit, would attack Americans on American soil. Sure, some would. And some, trained and armed and cognizant of their Constitutional oath to America, would not. And that result might also be interesting, for all concerned (I’m sure most of them are aware of the HS attempt to legally disarm vets as potential home-grown terrorists, word must have spread like wildfire throughout the ranks).

Ugly clash there, perhaps.

Personally I favor the AK 47 down here, one of the more popular weapons among the South and Central American cartels, because I hear many have filtered up into Old Mexico. I figure after a firefight there may be some ammo lying about. The buzzards will show me where to look. After that, the old Winchester 30.30. Hereabouts, after the Great Crash, you’ll be able to trade that ammo for free-range beef, deer, and elk jerky and vice versa. Fresh eggs, too. A clean 30.30 bullet will be a new coin o’ the realm.

AJP – Your feelings and ideas are no different from those of our early revolutionaries. That spirit arises once again.

The term ‘homegrown terrorist’ has been coined by those in power. But they are the terrorists, both homegrown and foreign. We need to really get that, that submission and compliance are not on the table.

My nephew is in the Navy, a nuclear technician. I sent him info on the oathkeepers, but he didn’t respond. I know he voted for Odumbo, but last I spoke with him he was dismayed with the direction of our nation. My family is conservative, but the new generation now entering adulthood is of a different mindset no matter how we tried to teach them. They just don’t know what we know. They don’t hold our founders in such high esteem.

I’d hate to be starting out today, facing the things that lie ahead. I fear for my family, because they have no comprehension of true hardship. Nor can they see the contrast between how things once were and how they are today.

I recently read a quote that struck me to the core: “Our compromises are our children’s normal”.

I felt ashamed.

Kate8,
I want to quote you a letter that was in the DAV magazine this month.
“Our nat5ions veterans have a deeper understanding and appreciation for our right to vote than your average Americanwill ever understand. Our Veterans have seen what happens when countries do not allow certain groups to vote or certain people to have their message heard. They have seen firsthand when countries use fear of violence to persuade voters to vote certain ways or not at all. We need to remind America that our brothers and sistersdied for this right that so many of them overlook. We need to remind them that voting is our most important right guaranteed by the United States Constitution. We need to show them that casting your ballot after hearing ALL sides of the story is what makes this country so great! Mathew Foster, Grand Prarie TX
I can only pray that this is still true in the future!!!

Average Joe, we’re on the same page.
I have faith in American Kids but if they should
violate that faith, they’re no longer Americans are they?

Wanda I agree with you 100%, this is the beginning, the american people should open their eyes before it is too late. This is the same pattern of the former USSR and now Cuba. Congress is getting irrelevant and Obama will continue bypassing it (Congress), unless it (Congress) start stopping him (Obama). Notice all the radical revolutionary commies surrounding the President like the FCC czar Frank Lloyd who will be introducing the Fair Doctrine to control the Internet. Once Obama has everything under control he will declare he is a commie, then it’ll be too late to act.

You said ‘introducing the fair doctrine’. It should read: ‘re-introduce’.
The fair doctrine was in place for many years, and the reason was to allow others with an opposing ‘view point’ to have access to the microphone, too. This was good especially when someone needed to clarify, or to contest the validity of any reference, comments, etc, attributed to them. Why would anybody consider this an infringement on our rights is beyond comprehension. If anything, it reaffirms our first amendment right!

Allow me to direct you to the First Amendment. It starts out with a very simple phrase. “CONGRESS shall make no law ……” Now the last time I checked neither a website like this one nor a radio or tv station were “Congress”.

EVERYONE of you has access to your very own websites on dozens and dozens of servers for FREE. In fact you and I are doing that right now. We don’t need government regulations messing that up. Btw for those who don’t have their very own internet in their house and don’t even have a device to surf they can go to a library.

Oh and with respect to the actual “fairness doctrine” practiced on broadcasters here is a dissertation on why it can’t work.
http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/1993/10/em368-why-the-fairness-doctrine-is-anything-but-fair

You are misled, truesoy. The fairness doctrine was instituted for one reason only – censorship. Rather than put up with the expense of haggling over what is fair or not, most broadcasters will throw in the towel and not produce anything controversial. What is controversial? Anything that is contrary to what the leaders want the citizens to believe.
The First Amendment of the Constitution was created for just that reason. Our Founders knew the games that leaders play to silence opposition and insure their longevity.
If you Liberals want to hear the Liberal version of reality, put your money where your mouths are. Fund the stations that spout your nonsense.

Flying Eagle,
It is not the beginning, we are half way there and it is not being brought to us by Commies, it is being brought to us by Corporate fascists who will charge us for the rain water we collect in barrels and meter the air we breathe if given the chance, and considering the fact we have given them the right to freely buy our politicians they already have been given the chance.

This is not a Republican/Democrat or a Conservative/Liberal issue, this is an American concern.

Fighten and trouble are my middle name, if you see me a comin ya better step aside, one fist of iron (conservative) and the other of steel (liberal) if the first don’t get you the other one will. It is time we all Unite to save our country from these goons. Unite America!

Carole howell,
good use of Tennesee Ernie Fords 16 tons, only it goes like this, If you see me comming better step aside, twenty men didn’t and twenty men died, one fist of iron, the other one steel, if the left one don’t git you then the right one will!

Carol I love Tennesse Ernie Ford too. And 16 tons was about the injustices brought about by the mineing companies aginst their employees. There was another good book about the clay county wars I think about a miner revolt that the union and the goverment tried to crush. Where the president ordered in the army against the citizens.Mike L.

Don’t listen to the detractors, they even have the lyrics wrong, at least according to the LP I grew up on. Good stuff, Carole, if I may say so, and well said.

Wishful thinking! In case you forgot, Dept. of Homeland Security was the brain child of a republican president. And do you think that a republican Congress that you conservatives just voted in, is going to do away with it?. Fat chance. Next time be careful what you wish for!; or who you vote for. Rule of thumb: any agency the government creates developes a life of its own.

If it was Bush’s brain child it was the Democrats that were more consistent in supporting the TSA through the years. Most of the comments here make the writers the best potential TSA agents, since they seem to see into the future (with a very negative outcome) & could tell a terrorist with their astronomical intellect. I too wish there could be a less intrusive way to help the flying public through our checkpoints at airports. However profiling has been a no-no from the beginning, and that seems to be Israel’s answer. Where are the good old days??

We can’t profile…no no no…THAT would be facing reality.
Instead we have some new commandments…

•Thou shalt not accurately describe Sharia law. See Geert Wilders. See Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff.
•Thou shalt not criticize any Islamic doctrines. See Geert Wilders. See Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff.
•Thou shalt not report on and/or criticize the funding of terror by Islamists. See Rachel Ehrenfield.
•Thou shalt not disparage – or even depict – the Islamic Prophet Muhammed. See the Jyllands-Posten Danish Cartoons. See South Park.
•Thou shalt not criticize the appropriateness of building any mosque, anywhere. See the Ground Zero Mosque debate.
•Thou shalt not admit to any politically incorrect thought(s) about Muslims, even if you immediately disavow it (them) as “irrational” and denounce it (them) on air. See Juan Williams.

And goodbye Sweden…a nation who’s people I always admired and enjoyed…have been sold down the river by Political Correctness.

Profile , Whom?. We are a nation of many races, and religions, and it is not easy just to profile a person by the way they look. Do you think that only ‘middle eastern’ indeviduals are likely to commit a terrorist act?. Think again. Was the ‘shoe bomber’ a middleeastern looking guy. No, he wasn’t. How about that Oklahoma bomber. He blew up a federal building, remeber?, or how about that guy that flew a small plane into an IRS building, recently?. Those were terrorist acts carried out by people you probably won’t suspect because they are in your own ‘image’, right?. See, it is not that easy as it might seem, and the TSA people are under a lot of pressure to provide the security we demand while pleasing the traveling public. God forbid and a terrorist was to ‘squeeze’ through; you guys (conservatives) will be the first ones to denounce the administration for the ‘lack’ of proper and effective security at the airports.

Ps.-When comparing the U.S. to Israel’s way of doing it, you have to consider their geographical location and customs. Also it has to be recognize the difference in the size of Israel, approx. 7000 sq. miles (approx. the size of a large county in the United States) verses the size of the United States at approx. 3,700,000 miles, and the diversity of our population. I’m not saying that, yes I like it, and its the perfect solution; but what else can be done? It is not easy.

Truesoy,
Sorry Bubba, the whole idea was your Vise Presidents, that would be Joe Biden ~ who also wrote the Patiriot Act.
Learn the facts before you blow crap out of your mouth.

TIME,
Dont you get it, they are all in on it pal, stop with your blame game stuff, enough has been done to us, now it is time for us to come together, and stop it.

You can not be stupid enough to think this was Biden all by his freaking fraking self. Get a grip on the the severity of the problem and stop your backbiting crap. We need to stop all this infighting and start working together to work on a solution, PEOPLE PLEASE. understand the precariousness of our position here.

Biden was part of a committee and chosen to write out what they decided on. What they as a group decided on. Stop the nit picking. We are sinking fast here. The ship is sinking and you all want to argue about who dropped the barrel that knocked the hole in the bottom, we can settle all that latter. But first lets stop this ship from sinking we are all on this same vessel together okay.

Carole,

What I know, (and thats not to sound like a know it it all,) just the facts, “it would make you crap your pants”,

So what I posted will stand for the value it has. It was a responce to someone who’s not clued in and yet espousing worthless rhetoric.
Where as your responce to my post is little more than hollow rhetoric with no value, much the same as the post I responded to. This is not a game sweet lips, it makes no differance if others were in on the writing of said PA, & TSA rules, the facts are he was the one where the “BUCK STOPS.” AKA ~ the leader of the group.

But thanks for your thoughts.

As far as I’m concerned, they’re all traitors.

The facts? I told you the facts. Just ’cause you don’t like it it does not make it any less factual.

Coal Miner,
That was great and thank you for sharing.It was very scary and very true.

DHS from a GOP POTUS?? The GOP Congress which Americans just voted in?? You want us to blame the GOP?? NO WAY!! We know some RINOs and Republi-crats have contributed to our other problems – economic, etc. But which party is really politically correct?? Which party complains about waterboarding and wants to mirandize terrorists?? Which party doesn’t even like to use the words terrorist or terrorism, but instead ‘man-mad disasters’?? Ridiculous but true – it’s the leftwing Democrap Party!! And let’s not forget that GW Bush DID keep us safe after 9/11/01. But thanks to the mistake of millions of stupid Americans on 11/4/2008, we now have a POTUS who goes around the world apologizing for America; in addition to thwarting efforts by states to protect our borders!! …..And as to Big Brother vs. our right to privacy, what about BHO and his democraps’ health/hellcare reform?? We already know that, unless it’s repealed, it will be a financial disaster which will ruin the best health care system in the world. But why aren’t more people complaining about the fact that the government will have access to our personal and health records?? Remember – except for a handful of RINOs such as Alaskan senator Lisa Jerk-owski, the GOP wants to do the right thing and repeal this ‘Big Brother’ health care monster!!

Earl, I hear ya.

You are dreaming, if you think congress will do away with this. They are the ones behind it. Your government wants to have TOTAL CONTROL OVER YOU! That is the new reality. Your government is the ENEMY!

Orwell’s “1984″ should be required reading by all citizens. Maybe then we can tell the illegals more easily!

But…with this equipment shown, can you imagine the COST to have enough units and the times wasted if we had this for EVERY public event? Process 100,000 people through in how many hours? Days?

Imagine Sundays at churches, especially those who teach Fundamental Christianity, and so are considered enemies of the State. Is the failure of our schools to teach full American History, and logical thinking, part of the plot against our civilization?? I never learned a lot about WWII until I toured a display in Singapore that called the spades spades.

I have heard it was bulldozed recently to make was for a Casino!

The really scary thing is that people obediently line up like sheep.

They now have technologies that, literally, read your thoughts. Those games that tell you what you’re thinking are just the tip of the iceberg.

Check out this article on how they are developing a race of ‘enhanced humans’, or transhumans. For more info, search Thomas Horn on the subject.

http://69.84.25.250/blogger/post/FORBIDDEN-GATES-ENHANCED-HUMANS-THE-NEW-(NEPHILIM)-ARMS-RACE.aspx

This is really scary stuff, and it’s real. Things are being developed which are so far behond imagination as to be no less than hell on Earth.

We mere mortals no longer interest TPTB. Their new toys make us utterly obsolete.

Kate8, I read your link. Like many, I’ve read sci-fi which predicted scenarios like this for half a century, and we keep getting closer (and since so much of it is either proprietary or Top Secret, or both, the general public has no idea just HOW close or far we are yet). You say the scary thing is that people line up like sheep…I say the scary part is we already know how to manufacture sheep, what they’re doing now is learning to transform humans into sheep (or wolves, or chupacabras, whatever They want), genetically.

Sure, we know they’ve been doing it to us for years with fluoride and drugs and TV, MK Ultra mind control, junk food, junk education and junk politics, false religions, etc. But these have merely been attempts to make us sheep-LIKE (and other things, depending on their objectives). Now they’re well on their way to making the human race into literal sheep (and yes, other things), with sheep brain-wiring (or other-than-human genetically altered parts). And as one of the think tank government advisors says, even if any government were terrified of these scientific developments, they’d have to go along so as not to fall behind other national or, worse, corporate competitors.

The centuries-old dichotomy between the Haves and the Have Nots, the Elite and Their Subjects, is becoming one of Superhuman vs. Human, Transhuman versus Subhuman. One can imagine Them (the Controllers of civilization as we knew it) with superhuman powers, and us, being left normal and/or made subhuman. I see what you meant (in an earlier thread) about there being no contest.

I still say there will be a contest, alright. Not sporting and not pretty. And very much like some of the sci-fi I read as a teen, and many of the Hollywood movies being made now (the “Terminator” series being a simplistic example, “Matrix” another).

How’s the old Chinese curse go?

“May you live in interesting times?”

Be careful with that curse “May you live in interesting times?” because if you are alive you will also live in those interesting times.

AJP – This current attempt at world domination is being patterned after attempts gone before. Just as in Hitler’s time they were intent on creating a master race and wiping out ‘inferior’ ones, they are at it again. This time, they have much bigger, scarier technology.

I remember reading stories of reported sounds of groaning coming from underground facilities in New Mexico, like suffering. Some say that people who disappear are often taken to be experimented on, among other things. They get their subjects from somewhere, or they wouldn’t have come so far. You know that if they do it to animals, they will do it to humans, too, just as the Nazis did.

Eventually, it will come around to bite them in the b*tt. Too bad they get to inflict so much misery in the meantime.

Man will never stop in his quest for greater knowledge and power, the desire to be like God. For one thing, feeling powerless, as most people do, really sucks.

If man CAN do a thing, he will. The sad part about it is that, while such endeavors could be used for the benefit of everyone, what they WILL be used for is greed, power, control, destruction…

I am inspired when I look around and see people who are loving, giving, upright and just. Why is it always the evil ones who rise to power?

Well, duh. Because good people don’t seek to control others. Not even for their own good, if that were even a plausible concept.

Good point, Lewis. The Government’s prevention is worse than the disease.

End this cycle of Freedom Loss. Vote Libertarian for Individual Liberty, Personal Responsibility, Free Markets, and Limited Government:
http://www.lp.org/platform

Okay, this part’s to Vickie (no kidding, I knew that, kiddo, I recognize how much it sucks) and Kate8 (yeah, I really get how much it sucks…I live in New Mexico, you might be speaking of Dulce.)

Working backwards, Kate, good people may not seek to control others, unless someone seeks to control them. Then as far as I’m concerned they’ve carte blanche to deal with the situation appropriately, without going insane of course. Whatever it takes to avoid being controlled beyond their stated wishes. Unless they’re obviously breaking a legitimate law.

Next, the “evil ones” rise to power because no one truly righteous (a word choice, I’m probably no more righteous that the next guy) no one who isn’t normally moral and ethical, truly, actually understands evil. (Hmm…that was too…simple.) Evil’s a definite, separate, THING. A separate mind set. It’s consciously amoral and without ethics. Evil is not unaware of morality and ethics, evil makes a decision to violate morals and ethics (I explain later how I know).

But, we who aren’t evil…which is most of us (don’t let the state of the world confuse you) we don’t “believe” in it, can’t believe anyone would actually think or operate that way, with such a separate mindset. I, however, have had close dealings with such people (yes, plural) since my earliest childhood (some bad family acquaintances I’ve seen often when they weren’t smiling and putting on airs, really bad and I met a few more along the way) I know they exist. Evil ones. Since I’m now over six decades old, and they are still around (that part of my family, they huddle together), I’ve some unfortunate wisdom on my side (and non-evil siblings to corroborate the facts after years spent apart) there are evil people who are simply f**king evil. They’re hard to figure out, even though I grew up with them, but they’re from the Outer Limits of evil.

They literally don’t know any better than to assume that you are too, but they really think you are more clever at hiding it than they. Sorry to whack you in the face with the horrible truth. They think you’re just like them, only better at it. Hence the incessant battle, and attempt to glom onto you, learn your secrets. (I can say in my observations, it’s not directly contagious, but being too long in the presence of evil can or will mess you up–if you’re in an evil-controlled environment too long, you will go with the flow, under sufficient physical and mental duress–but you can get out…well, by getting out).

How do the “evil ones rise to power?” I already said it. They’re unopposed because those who should, simply don’t get it. Yes, one’s physically and psychologically and mentally threatened (and the evil ones DO work on all known levels simultaneously, the better ones, anyway, some just beat you up), but since other less aware victims are going along with the program, you’re furthermore socially pressured.

So, you’re being pressured on four levels. Yet, on a spiritual level, you resist (Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, one’s mother or older brother, whomever). So the evil ones do their best to destroy your resistance on that level too. Because, yes, they want the power to control their environment (it’s a survival trait even frogs exhibit) and they, the bad guys, perceive you as part of that environment. Any resistance must be crushed. But they hit the spiritual wall, whatever form your’s takes.

They can chain you in a dungeon, your spirit is unbreakable (not always true of individuals in a dank cell, but often true of cultures and countries, as the Vietnamese proved to the French, the Americans, the Chinese), yet the “evil ones” convince themselves a people can be broken because a person was broken in a dungeon. These are the same @$$hole$ who think everyone is like them, underneath, and are baffled by people with spiritual credentials. I don’t mean God, I mean the person, using whatever he or she needs for back up, or nothing else at all. Their god may help them, but they’re the one standing up.

And so, yes, after inflicting all this pain it comes back to bite the perpetrators in the butt, after inflicting all this pain. Karmically, it will, if someone like Al Sieber or Dan AZ doesn’t show up first (in which case it becomes what John Lennon famously described as “instant karma.”)

Or perhaps on a good day it might be you or me. We might say a few kind words first, give him a few moments. Before putting the $#!+head evil guy out of everyone’s misery and relieving him of his jail keys.

Try as we might to understand it, we can’t. Evil’s evil. There are evil people. They can be charming, and they can and will take over a company, a corporation, a nation or a continent by any and all means available to them, and that puts them ahead of the rest of us and they are determined to get there.

Because we might desire to do the same thing for honorable and civic, responsible reasons, and they (the evil ones) may mirror our efforts and speak well, but sooner or later one sees sociopathic behavior, even psychopathic behavior. By which time it’s rather late in the day.

Then you know you’re viewing evil, and you cannot vote down evil. You don’t vote out Idi Amin or Pol Pot or Josef Stalin or Adolf Hitler or Vlad the Impaler. And you certainly don’t vote out Benny Bernake and the rest of the bankers who work for the Fed, or Goldman-Sachs, or the Treasury Department, Timothy Geithner. The rip-off has been clear, by whom is clear, and no, you can’t vote any of them out. They are destroying you, too bad. This is the face of evil.

Evil is evil is evil, nothing precisely like it, no accounting for it from our side of the fence. It’s separate from us, it’s shape-shifting, but it is as evil does. You can perhaps pause it for awhile, but until you understand pure smirking malignance, you’ve small chance against it.

Welcome to the voting booth after watching the evening news. Look for the button which allows you to vote to take control of our country’s monetary system out of private unauditable international banker’s hands.

You want evil? Watch Bernanke.

AverageJoePatriot – Well said! I really enjoyed that post.

Interesting how evil is always driven to push forward, crushing everything in its path, while goodness chooses simply to be, until it suffers heavy losses. Then it pushes back, and on and on it goes.

Ancient wisdom teaches that there are Universal Laws operating in duality, or manifest existence. One is the Law of Opposites: every extreme has an equal and opposite extreme (and everything in between). This is also shown by the swing of the pendulum.

If this is so, then there must be goodness to the same degree as there is evil. And what we call ‘reality’ tends to conform itself according to our perception of it, both individually and collectively. When we really understand the depth of darkness, we get an idea of the magnificence of Light. If we are to magnify the Light, we must then shift our focus, see it, BE it.

Opposites are the same, only differing in degree. It is what gives play, choice, struggle and triumph. And we are governed by it as long as we choose to play. It is all about choices.

I think that, just as evil rules the manifest realm, goodness rules in the spiritual, because in spirit the illusion of duality vanishes. It is from here that we can draw our strength. Psalm 91 describes this as dwelling in the ‘secret place of the Most High’, where evil ‘shall not come nigh thee’.

I believe that is the whole purpose of times such as these.

Blessings.

Speaking of the super-human android soldiers and such supports the idea of maintaining self defense weapons for personal protection. Evil minds may construct armor to protect man-made human+dog like creature, but a 12 ga slug or the bumper of a pickup truck can take it out.

You mean the PURPLE SHIRTS (the SEIU shirt color).

There is no need for the brown shirts, schools are already teaching your children to tell on adults for all kinds of diffrent things. Big Brother is watching you through your children. We can thank George W, for all this isanity with the Patriot Act. Now Obama has picked up the ball and is running with it.

Wow! this is the most interesting thread I have read on here yet. Thank you all.

Was it Kate8 that brought up the human experimentation? I put nothing past the military, not after the experimentation they did on some of our troops in Vietnam, then they were using some strange drug combos to try and make super soldiers. The results were horrible for the subjects.

Carole – It gets worse. Soldiers are being “enhanced”.

There are actually soldiers who have reported that they were chipped, as in chips in the brain to control them.

We would be stupified if we knew all the things that are going on. The elites consider us their personal livestock, and they think they have the right to do to us as they will.

There are even documents stating that the military has the right to experiment on the American population, as in bio and chemical warfare. They have, and they do.
