Truth And Common Sense

http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/gitmo-lawyer-julia-tarver-mason-aiding-abetting-and-not-talking/

I especially like the overhead map angle.  Great work. The author attempts to seek an interview with the leftie lawyer is was all over the Gitmo terrorists defense and was involved in photographing the CIA operatives.   A real “in your face” moment as he waits outside her home for an interview.  What would really work great is to set up a surveillance point and take and post photos of anyone going in or out of her home and her business with the captions “Do you know who this is?”

Do the same with other main players and see how long it goes before their heads literally explode.  They like messing with other people but don’t like being messed with.

The author of the piece ran into the block maneuver, which is actually well done and I wonder who did it.  A photograph of the incident would have been fun, or a short video.

“At about 7:30 a.m., another man walked out, who identified himself as guest at the house. He entered and exited the house three times. At 9:00 a.m. one of the three garage doors opened. Finally, Julia.

She screeched out of her driveway in a late model Infiniti. And we were off. I simply wanted to ask her a few questions, and I assumed she was heading for Route 395 North towards Washington, D.C., to Paul, Weiss. So I followed leisurely behind her onto North Pickett Street. We stopped at a red light.

That’s when I noticed a giant gray Infiniti SUV on my tail. Instead of turning left towards 395, Julia turned right. The gray SUV hugged my tail. Suddenly, the large SUV pulled from behind me, jerked to my left, passed me and cut me off in my lane. He sandwiched himself between Julia and me. We traveled a few miles through Alexandria, following each other like teenagers going to a party.

Then we got to a light and Mason, her friend, and I pulled into the far left lane. This road led to an alley. When the light turned green, Julia drove to the left - but the gray SUV just sat there. Other cars behind me honked, but I knew what was happening. When enough time elapsed, he slowly inched into the alleyway.

I decided to continue. I followed him for miles until … well, we came right back to the house, where he used his remote control to open his garage door and drive right in. He got out of the car, looked at me, then closed the door.

It appears Mason learned some evasion tactics while hanging out with terrorists.”

Do this a couple of times, post photos on the web.  Who she eats lunch with, who she is seeing, who comes and goes.  You never know who she is associated with, and obviously, she isn’t talking.

Do the same thing outside Holder’s place, some top politicians homes, etc.  Be respectful, be legal but be there.

Why in the world do we think this is a good idea?  Already people are starting to complain.  Arab men complain it violates their religion and the TSA waves their going through.  Now if you are eighty year old white woman from Wisconsin, you are forced through the machine.   But a young Arab man, naaahh..   Weird, huh…

Truth is the technology, something we saw in Arnold Schwarzenegger’s movie Total Recall, does work. It is just a little violating and some might say dangerous.  If it can light you up enough to see your body, it is sending some kind of radiation through you.  Here is one link that explains some of the possible dangers-

http://www.prisonplanet.com/full-body-scanners-to-fry-travelers-with-radiation.html

Here is one passage-

“A leading U.S. expert on the biological effects of X-radiation is Dr. John Gofman, Professor Emeritus of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley. Dr. Gofman’s exhaustive research leads him to conclude that there is NO SAFE DOSE-LEVEL of ionizing radiation. His studies indicate that radiation from medical diagnostics and treatment is a causal co-factor in 50 percent of America’s cancers and 60 percent of our ischemic (blood flow blockage) heart disease. He stresses that the frequency with which Americans are medically X-rayed “makes for a significant radiological impact.”

This highly credentialed nuclear physicist states: “The fact, that X-ray doses are so seldom measured, reflects the false assumption that doses do not matter…[but] they do matter enormously. And each bit of additional dose matters, because any X-ray photon may be the one which sets in motion the high-speed, high energy electron which causes a carcinogenic or atherogenic [smooth muscle] mutation. Such mutations rarely disappear. The higher their accumulated number in a population, the higher will be the population’s mortality rates from radiation-induced cancer and ischemic heart disease.”

A report in the British medical journal Lancet noted that after breast mammograms were introduced in 1983, the incidence of ductal carcinoma (12 percent of breast cancer) increased by 328 percent, of which 200 percent was due to the use of mammography itself. A Lawrence Berkeley National Lab study has demonstrated that breast tissue is extremely susceptible to radiation-induced cancer, confirming warnings by numerous experts that mammograms can initiate the very cancers they may later identify. Dr. Gofman believes that medical radiation is a co-factor in 75 percent of breast cancer cases. So why would girls and women want their breast tissues irradiated every time they take a commercial flight?”

I’m with the doctor quoted in the article when he says NO radiation exposure is safe.  Think about it for a second, your Hollywood favorite, left wing loved President is supporting the use of X-rays on people (including them) in such a way that some travelers may be exposed to radiation hundreds of times a year. HUNDREDS!!  These are the same vain, eco-friendly, tofu eating, liberals who void their bodies with colonics, take herbal remedies, and sleep under crystal pyramids!  Yet, they’ll climb in line and get zapped with enough radiation to potentially alter their DNA.  Lefties- you just have to love ‘em.

Now we know the problem is our inability to get past our PC driven political environment.  We could cut out ninety-nine percent of the terror threat by focusing on the right profile.  Israel does it.  But we will gladly exchange our health for political correctness.  Or at least some will.  Me, I drive.

Some video of the protesters in Iran.  They are still trying to make their government understand the direction they are going in is wrong.  (Sound familiar?)  Absent from the fight is Barack Obama who simply cannot bring himself to admit he screwed up with the whole “I’m Obama and they’ll listen to me because I’m cool” theory of foreign policy.   He will let the Iranian freedom lovers burn themselves out, while ignoring their pleas for assistance.  At the same time, on the home front, Obama ignores sound economic policy-again- and we find ourselves in a recession that simply will not go away.  We can argue if TARP was the right thing to do, or if it worked like it should have.  But that is history.  Currently, the Obama administration seems to be intent on making any future recovery as slow and difficult as possible.   Here is the current story on unemployment.

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aXaMufrB.FA0

The key passage is this-

The proportion of Americans who can’t find work is likely to “remain elevated for an extended period,” Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner, White House budget director Peter Orszag and Christina Romer, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said in a joint statement. The officials said unemployment may even rise “slightly” over the next few months as discouraged workers start job-hunting again.

“We do not expect further declines in unemployment this year,” the officials said in testimony prepared for the House Appropriations Committee. They predicted the economy would add about 100,000 jobs a month on average — not enough to bring the jobless rate down substantially.

Guys, in the real world this is basically the “I don’t have a freaking clue what we are doing.” statement.   If you were in a war and your lieutenant said the same thing, you would not follow him over the next hill.  Over and over I have heard the same thing from experts in the business world. Nobody wants to hire because they aren’t sure what is going to happen next.  If Obamacare passes, we’ll be in a recession for YEARS as business tries to find ways to shed employees.   Obama knows this, so do his advisors, but they still hold course.  Why?

Like Clinton’s early years, Obama believes the key to his administration is not foreign policy but domestic policy.  He wants to get more power and control over the lives of the citizens.  We know it, he knows it, and now he knows we know.    The Iranians could burn to the ground and he would not care.  This is too bad. We spent a lot of money and blood securing the borders on either side of Iran, thus creating pressure.  If someone of moral character had been elected, we’d be funding and supporting another Iranian revolt and change of government.

Well, it is what it is and I think all of the voters in this nation, especially the white moderate voter who wanted to cleanse his/her soul by voting for the black guy who was supposed to be trans-formative, that elections have consequences.  I’m willing to bet that there is more than one moderate, educated, middle or upper middle class guy, who lost his job in the last year, wondering what in the heck happened.

Wait till he can’t see his doctor, or can’t find treatment without going to Costa Rica.

http://gatewaypundit.firstthings.com/2010/03/liar-obama-your-insurance-premiums-will-decrease-by-3000-under-obamacare-video/

The video is stunning as Barack “57 states” Obama now claims that Obamacare will provide a three thousand percent savings in employer benefit costs if it is passed.  He said, we heard it, and we heard the silly applause that went with it.   Seriously, as corrupted as that crowd was, you would think someone in the crowd would have turned to their buddy and went “WTF?” .

Three thousand percent…that goes along with the “I’ll respect you in the morning, the check’s in the mail and no honey I won’t…”  promises made by liars over the years.  Here’s the rub.  We know it is a lie, we know he’s a liar, and yet we still have far too many people paying attention to him.  Like Charlie Brown and Lucy with a football, far too many people are willing to line up to kick just once again… and again… and again.

Over at the House, the Democrats are arguing they have the votes, don’t have the votes, are voting next week or after Easter… so I guess lying is a way of life for those on the left.  Sorry bunch liberals.  Dennis Kucinich, “I’m a half step short of a full blown commie” kicked his principles to the curb and is reported that he has changed his mind after a short hop on Air Force One.  Am I surprised?  No, because Dennis knows the plan better than anyone. It is and has always been about taking steps towards his ultimate goal, a socialist European statist government, with his boys in charge.

At some point this is going to break, or die a slow lingering death.  I think we’ll know in a couple of weeks either way.   The question is just how greedy are the democrats in Congress?  How many like keeping their jobs over pushing a radically left agenda?

http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/reaction-to-the-inaugural-british-tea-party-event/

It sounded like fun.  Of course our more refined cousins did with the typical British reserve.  They didn’t throw tea overboard, they drank it and talked about the problems they faced in a cultured and disciplined manner. However, they feel the same way about taxes and bad spending as we do, which is encouraging.   One paper made a point that sound eerily familiar-

Why is there no British Tea Party? Where are the crowds of revenue slaves flocking to London to demand redress for the squandering of their money? Marginal tax is rising to 50%, VAT to 17.5% and state spending towards half the national product. The Treasury has lost control of public finance. So why no furious blue-rinses, bail-out ­haters, bonus-bleaters and embittered VAT victims storming parliament? Has a corrupt political class reduced the British people to quiescent gerbils?

“Has the corrupt political class reduced the British people to quiescent gerbils?”  Now isn’t that a question we are all asking now.  They ask it there, we ask it here, the Greeks are asking it with riots in the streets.   Hmmm… for all those long time conspiracy nuts who were pushing the CFR, one world government theories, I may owe them an apology.  My buddy still maintains it isn’t a vast conspiracy, but a set of individuals and companies all working independently for a similar goal.  He doesn’t believe anyone would intentionally crash the world economy because of the huge risk and loss they all suffered.  I argued it was more than just random events that caused the meltdown, but had no proof.   But things change, like the weather and the seasons.   Here in our nation we are seeing a very coordinated attack on our system of government. The players; MSM, politicians, bureaucrats, businessmen, and union leaders are all keeping a very tight control on the message and the information put out.  Rush Limbaugh likes to put a montage together of major media talking heads using the same phrase at the same time.  No way that is by accident.  But it is very familiar for those who read up on Mao’s techniques.  The goal is to discredit, isolate and then destroy any perceived threat.  It works until the masses simply don’t believe the hype anymore.  In the latter stages of Mao’s China the people woke up and realized they were pawns. That there was no real “revolution” only shallow men clinging onto power.  The casualties during that period of time numbered into the millions.  Dead, wounded, crippled, assaulted, raped, robbed, discredited, and victims of suicide.  Millions.   For which Mao care nothing about.

Almost to the second after his death his nation, which was already revolting, spun apart.  People no longer bought into the ways he proposed.  Now there were many blind supporters, but their power was limited.  Like I said, leaders can only govern if the people are willing to allow it or too scared to stop it.  Here in America, we are not afraid. They are trying to make us afraid and will with more trumped up crises.   But we’ll buy less and less of the bull.  It is a matter of faith, and Obama has lost the faith of the people in little over a year.  The left knows this and is pushing the pedal to the metal to get their burning heap of a car over the finish line.  The question is, as the British writer so aptly put it  are we gerbils like our British cousins?

I think not.

http://cbs13.com/local/car.wash.irs.2.1559962.html

Actually the original four cents owed three years ago had ballooned into two hundred dollars. Seriously.  Don’t you wish you could find an investment where you could put in four cents and three year later walk away with 199.96 cent profit!  Wow.   I’m not sure I can even do the math on this to get the percentage of return.  However, even if it was two hundred dollars they sent two agents, probably at $3o.0o an hour each, not adding in the benefit packages, for at least two hours, driving a government owned vehicle and then gas….  I’m not sure even if they collected their money right there it was a profit.

But that’s the IRS for you and they are going to be on a tear trying to collect as much money as they can.  Hey, if you owe it, pay it.  If you don’t like the rates, you shouldn’t have voted in Pelosi, Reid and Obama.  However, the problem runs into proving you are not subject to a tax.  If the papers were filed wrong, or submitted incorrectly, you would think it would be a case of “innocent until proven guilty” but that’s not always the way.  Once you are on the radar, you can be in some trouble.  Beck, Limbaugh and others get hammered every year the democrats are in power, which is really a crime- literally.  It is called “abuse of power” and should land someone in jail.   Having power over other people should be a burden, a responsibility, but not a license to abuse citizens.

I hope the IRS takes a deep breath and doesn’t get too excited.  They serve a purpose but should remember everyone they are talking to isn’t trying to cheat them out of the goverment’s portion, well unless he’s the Treasury secretary…

Insane times we are in, just insane.

Yes, I’m a big Star Trek fan from my youth on.  During one of the many spin offs the ultimate evil was introduced- The Borg.  Set on assimilating everything it encountered for the “good of the collective” the Borg were powerful, controlling and relentless.   I went online to get a clip of the Borg’s “resistance is futile” quote and found this little Obama/Borg moment blending the commercial where all the “useful idiots” from Hollywood pledge their undying support for the President (which by the way is quite creepy) and Obama as the head Borg.  On a side note, I wonder if they are all up with supporting him if he seizes most of their money in taxes…just saying… .

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dg2YaFYaDQ&feature=related

The clip is funny and to the point.  And it is also a little scary because this is exactly how it starts.  Useful idiots encouraging other idiots to blindly support a man.  Americans usually don’t get all that excited about Presidents because they are limited to eight years (Thank God for that little amendment!).  But it can be said that Obama has certainly captured more than his fair share of mindless drones in this last year.  However, instead of using that enthusiasm for good, Obama has used it to promote himself and his agenda which serves the collective.  In this case, the collective are the radical democrats trying to seize control of your lives.

How bad is it?

As we speak a number of websites I visit- Redstate, Public Secrets, Gatewaypundit, STOPTHEACLU, and even the moderate HOTAIR are listing offenses against our system committed by the democrats in order to keep control of power and push through Obamacare.   By now, most of Americans with more than two brain cells rubbing together realize healthcare is not about, well…healthcare.   The best source to verify this as fact is Nancy Pelosi who, on occasion, slips up and has a moment of honesty.  Her latest little moment was capture by Mary Katherine Ham at the Weekly Standard-

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/pelosi-health-care-reform-will-finally-allow-artists-focus-being-unemployed-comfortably

Basically, to sell healthcare ol’ Nancy is claiming it will allow artists and photographers to quit their day job and really focus on their passion.   Their healthcare is paid for so all is well.  Except for that nasty mortgage payment or rent payment, car payment, electric, food, etc.   Details, details…  How this woman is in charge of the Democrats is a wonder to me.  She must be relentless in her drive to achieve her goals.  Like that crazy girl you took out once that won’t quit calling.  You decide maybe a second date will get her off your back but at dinner you realize things aren’t going well when she is picking out wedding colors and showing you swatches of material for her dress!

But if you think that was bad, before this little side trip into OZ, Nancy claimed the only way to see what is in healthcare is to pass healthcare.  This kind of stuff you can’t make up!

However, all kidding aside we have a serious problem. The radical left in this country are no longer abiding by the contract that government has with its citizens.  Like I said in my prior post and at  Redstate- The only way a society functions is if both sides obey the rules.  For example, the police can arrest you, but with the understanding that they are charged with your safety and getting you in front of a jury to have your day in court.  You, as a citizen, are required to submit to that lawful arrest fully believing the police will treat your fairly and you will have a chance to prove your innocence.  But, if the police started just shooting people they thought committed a crime- without trial- then it is the duty of the citizen to resist. If one side breaks the contract, THERE IS NO CONTRACT!  This basic business law, criminal law and political law. Politicians can only successfully govern if the people allow it.  That is one of the truisms of American society.  Our history is full of examples of bad laws being ignored by the people and eventually the law being repealed.  (Remember the Jim Crow laws?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Crow_laws) Even something as silly as smoking pot has slowly morphed from a guaranteed fine and/or jail to being legally prescribed by doctors today.  Not that I agree, but the facts are what they are.  People forced that change.

Today, many on the right, especially the conservative element are up in arms over the abuses being pushed onto the public by the Obama administration and the Democrats in Congress.  The conservatives looked to the Republicans, and outside some superficial political efforts, found them less than effective.  Why?  Some fear the Republicans are a part of the problem.  The theory goes that both parties have a “wink and a nod” agreement that as long as they share power, trading seats on occasion,  it is okay to sentence the citizens of America to indentured servitude.  Lindsey Graham is a good example of this, as are David Brooks, Kathleen Parker, and others of their ilk.

So, who are these people intent on driving us into ruin, (not themselves mind you, just us).   Many citizens are now realizing they are dealing with the student of the radical sixties.  Glenn Beck, as tangent troubled as he can get, has done yeoman’s work in exposing the history of the SDS, Weathermen, and other groups which many of the members are now in positions of power in the public and private sectors.  They are intent on, as Obama put it, fundamentally remaking  America.   For everyone listening this meant something different.  This is one of Obama’s greatest gifts, to be a blank slate so the people can draw their own hopes and dreams on him.   I think this talent was recognized early on by his handlers and he was chosen to move up the ladder to the White House.  His books, his speeches, his fake “I’m a new kind of politician” was all part of the scam.   As Beck put it and others are now catching on, the left has been priming for this moment for generations.  Every chance they have to push a socialist state they take it and having majorities in Congress and a radical in the White House is their best bet on moving the ball forward again, this time instead of one step they are trying to leap ahead ten.  This is why you are seeing all the stops being pulled out as they threaten, bribe, manipulate, violate laws, break rules and ignore the people.  Fifty years ago, they would be so soundly trounced in the next election cycle it would be years before they held any serious office again.  Now, they have managed to set the stage by spending trillions of dollars over the generations creating groups of people who are solid voting blocs; the elderly,  the minorities, the unions and now young voters as they promise healthcare until they are twenty-six and free upper level education. (free as in they don’t pay, we do)

However, as healthcare bogs down in what our founding fathers designed as fail safes, the Democrats have finally decided to drop the mask of being representatives of the people and are simply breaking the law, constitutional law at that.

http://pubsecrets.wordpress.com/2010/03/12/levin-expel-louise-slaughter-from-the-house/

People on the right are complaining.  They protest, write letters, make calls and do all the things that proper etiquette calls for.  But here is the rub. The left isn’t playing by the rules anymore.  They have and will continue to break the law, the rules, and the Constitutional guarantees and articles.   Why? Because as much as they like to hang the saying on Nixon, it is the left’s mantra that “the ends justify the means.”    Where is this all going?  I’ve said many times what an eye opening experience it was reading about China’s last cultural revolution (1966-1976).  Many of the ideas, techniques and concepts have come from that period of time.  Remember, many of the people now pushing sixty or more came from that same era.  They followed Mao as fans and supporters.  The attempt to use the NEA is one example of the use of the arts as a way to push a certain message, a method favored by Mao.  Then there is the personalization of education by Obama.  As he put it in his watered down version of the speech to students, it is HE who will provide all they need.  Not the government, not the teachers, not the parents, only he can do it.

So what is exactly happening?  In my opinion we are in the middle of a revolution.  Beck likes to call it “evolution” because it does not involve force.  But that is for now.  Sooner or later there will be physical confrontations.  The problem will be that it will not involve the policy makers or the politicians, but it will be some upset citizen and some poor federal officer attempting to follow his orders.  That is unfortunate and wrong.  I spent twenty years doing my duty. There were times when I arrested someone I wasn’t happy with the order.  As I matured, I realized there were ways to enact what I came to believe was the most important principle I could follow- “First do no harm”.    But for every officer like me and those I trained, there will always be a few that will follow the orders mindlessly.  Ruby Ridge and Lon Horiuchi comes to mind.  I know these men. They aren’t monsters, but believe they are doing their duty by following the orders blindly.  Some do it because they believe; some do it so they can keep their jobs and their lifestyles.  When given the choice to do the right thing, they won’t.  Regardless, they are still following orders issued by people inside the administrative bureaucracy who are directed by policy makers and politicians.  Please do not confuse that poor officer who probably agrees with you privately, with the people using him to attack your way of life.

That said, as time passes, and the pressure mounts, and the violations of the Constitution continue, as we realize more and more  we are seeing the collective mantra being spoken by our elected leaders- “it is for the good of the state”, there are some of us who realize we are in the soup for sure.   How many times have they slipped up and made that connection between what they promise is their intent and what they are really meaning to do.  People with some education and a sense of history recognize the direction we are headed in.  Leaders have tried this with nations before.  The effort has always ended up in failure or some convoluted system of government where only a few prosper and the rest toil.

Over at Redstate one of the diaries addresses the effort the radical left has made in trying to control the people.

http://www.redstate.com/e_pluribus_unum/2010/03/12/if-you-try-the-slaughter-rule/

It is a long and amazing list.  But ask yourself why are they trying so hard to enact something that won’t take place for four years?  Simple, it is all about the cash.  We are broke.  They know it, we know it and the world knows it.  If you are broke and you are running a federal government there are only two choices (well actually three) you can make to fund the budget.  You can raise taxes or you can print money.  One crushes the citizen’s ability to be upwardly mobile (ask the average citizen in Europe what they think is their chances of becoming rich), the other makes the currency worthless and the end result is still the same.   The third choice is defaulting on the obligations.  Something that would lead to… well Greek-like riots in the streets.

Our government leaders have found a fourth way.  They have decided to commit robbery. Not to play the same tune over and over, but the attempt to tax us for “healthcare” which will not exist for four years is simple robbery.  To tax and control the medical field is simply transferring the cash from that market to the treasury and replacing it with government IOU’s like some kind of Popeye’s Wimpy on steroids.  “I’ll take your money for a promise to pay you back in four years with rationed care.”  Gee, what a deal!  We all know what will happen next is they’ll take the “medical” money and pay off all the current unfunded debt.  A “rob Peter to pay Paul” moment.  Obviously, as much as the radical left wants to yell it out loud, there is no emergency.  If there were, we’d be providing the care now, not collecting taxes.  The fact this is missed by so many on both sides of the argument is amazing to me.  I would make commercials around that ONE fact!  Yet, the Republicans want to get down into the weeds, why?  Keep it simple.  Tell the people what is going to happen.  You are getting taxed for four years before one cent is spent on care.  In the meantime, the care you are getting will begin to degrade as the industry gets ready for the take over.  Yikes!  And the useful idiots like Matthew, Maher, Olbermann, and the rest are buying in.  Now people like Podesta and the Cllintons and some others know the score and are part of the effort, but I feel the vast majority of Americans may not understand the whole issue but do get that something is very, very wrong.

Time is ticking has the left pushes their people hard to vote for this horrible bill.  However, there are a few things to be learned here.  One, never allow either party total control of the government.  Two, elections have consequences.  Three, we aren’t as dumb or as asleep as the left had hoped for and we are still fighting with tooth and nail.  Even if they pass the bill, you have a right to refuse to submit.  A bad law is just, a bad law.  Just like Jim Crow.  Just like sufferage.  Just like other issues, citizens not allowing their government to abuse them will be the final say on how far the left gets with their perverted agenda.  We are a free people, with free will.  We need to exercise it.

The key to the trust between authorities and civilians is that both sides understand there are rules you don’t break. The police have the right to arrest you, but only so you can have your day in court. The civilians submit to arrest assuming they’ll be treated fairly and will have their chance to defend themselves in front of a jury of their peers.

But if the police start shooting people instead of arresting them, the people have a right and an obligation to resist. That is how a society works. Once one side quits playing by the rules, the other side MUST resist. If you submit you are going to be continuously assaulted by those who lose more and more respect for you as humans with free will. The assaults will continue until there is nothing left, no free will, no rights, no hope… no freedom. It is the way of humans. It has been the way of humans since the first man struck another with a fist or club and took what the fallen man possessed.

Whether it is by a club, a fist, a stone, a spear, or from the barrel of a gun, the constant threat of abuse and violence always exists. This is why the founding fathers built this nation, to create securities, no more like barriers to those threats. They gave us ways to peacefully resolve differences. But they also warned us, repeatedly, that the threat is not only out there but can come in many different forms, including the velvet covered fist of good intentions by liberals and progressives.

What is going to happen? I wrote about one possible future in my novel. (www.revoltthebook.com) You see, it is also the duty and responsibility of the people to protect their God given rights. This is what many felt around 1858 when an assault upon state and individual rights occurred.

Today, most people don’t understand Obama wasn’t lying. Neither were the radical leftists from the sixties disguised as mature politicians we see before us now. They are on the path to pull the final plug on their drive to crush what was once the greatest and freest nation in the history of the world. How will we respond? How will you respond? Will you be content to talk about the Nov 2010 as the way to punish the Dems when Biden overrules the Senate parliamentarian? Even though it will be tantamount to being shot at by the police.

I’ve said this many times before; the biggest problem within a revolution is one of perspective. You simply cannot get far enough away from the problem to see the enormity of the effort and assault. As we complain about healthcare, they are thinking of seizing more land out west (the premise of the book’s plot- written in 1997 mind you!), stopping fishing, FISHING!, seizing control of your kid’s higher education and pushing regulation upon you so you will NEVER rise above your CLASS without their approval.

I wouldn’t worry so much, but the greatest generation is dying off. Their words of caution are no longer being muttered from old men’s lips. Some say our financial meltdown was caused by the retirement of the cautious old men who knew better, who remember the last depression, and who were replaced by those same young guns who want to get rich quick on the backs of men and women like you and me.

No honor, no sacrifice, no respect and no accountability. No soul and no morals. Why are we standing by and letting them tell us how to live, how to raise our kids, and they are the ones who will tell us what rights they will give us. Why?

You have to remember the 90/10 rule. 90% of the people are sheep, 10% run the world, the rest go around wonder what happened and who did it. It has always been that way until a crisis wakes up more of the 90%. Politicians and tyrants bank of the hope that they can keep most of us asleep. When that doesn’t work, they’ll resort to force.

In 1776 it was a relatively small band of men and women who stood up and said enough. The vast majority of the people were either neutral or favored British citizenship. They stood on the sidelines, at least at first. In 1858, the South refused to accept the tariffs and other restrictions put upon them by the greedy North. Slavery was only one part of the equation. It was the North’s way or no way, and the South chose to exercise its Constitutional right to secede. You don’t learn that in history classes because it doesn’t fit the progressive mantra. They don’t want you to learn you have a right to say no. That our founding fathers begged us not to submit to tyranny, because they knew it would mean all their sacrifices were for naught.

Do not allow that to happen. Read the book. Understand we are a free people and there are options available. Always chose the peaceful options first. But like I said before, sooner or later, enough will be enough. The question is where is the line? I don’t know. But the Obama administration and their cronies in Congress, business, and the media seem dead set on finding it.

I caught a piece of this yesterday.  Today, Rush read another article where the story comes into a little better light.  First, the woman HAD employee insurance when she first became ill.  Her mother said she was reluctant to go to the doctor (HER CHOICE!!), even when the illness started making her loss work time.  She finally lost her job and then and ONLY then she sought medical care.

Second, when she went for help SHE GOT IT!!!  She was admitted to a hospital, was treated, got better and was released.  She came back with the same problem and was TREATED AGAIN, regardless of whether she had that infamous “pre-existent” condition.  She died because she died, not because she wasn’t getting care,  unlike what we can expect from a Britain-like health care system Obama wants to foist upon us.

Here is a passage from the article.  You should read the whole thing-

Although he had stressed to staff how important his medication was, she said, no one gave him the drugs.

She said that two days after his hip operation, while Miss Cronin was at work, he became severely dehydrated but his requests for water were refused.

He became aggressive and nurses called in security guards to restrain him.

After they had left, he rang the police from his bed to demand their help.

Miss Cronin, who is divorced from her son’s father Peter, said: ‘The police told me he’d said, “Please help me. All I want is a drink and no one is helping me”.

‘By this time my son was confused due to his lack of medication and I think the nurses just ignored him because they thought he was just being badly behaved.

‘They were lazy, careless and hadn’t bothered to check his charts and see his medication was essential.’

The Republicans showed fly the mother over here to talk about how a government run hospital system can kill you.  Put up photos of that young man dead and alive.   You want personal stories, you have hundreds and thousands of stories about what happens when you let the government run your lives.  You want to start comparing personal stories.  I’ll play, and I’ll win.
