Patriotism alive or dead?

 

Old Glory, you wave proudly, without regard to danger, never do you discriminate from where you fly, always trusting, forever proud; you wrap yourself around the fallen, singing their last praises to the heavens.

And so, with such honor bestowed upon our flag do we wonder what sentiments citizens minds contain.  The flag has taken serious abuse in the name of freedom, dragged across the seas, shot at, shot down and still she climbed back up; she proudly flew over lands reclaimed for freedom sake; but the most abuse she gets is on the very soil she protects. Do we take these freedoms too lightly, thinking freedom a cheap commodity?

A resurgence of patriotism seems a rising event, tea parties held on town greens displaying Old Glory proud and tall; from New England porches to southern sea side resorts, to mid-west ranches to the far western shore homes she waves at the dawn light and bids us adieu at dusk. Glorious days, with only a trace billowy white, Old Glory reaches high to kiss the sky.

What ever happened to the flag abusers of the sixties, in their tie-dyed shirts and worn out jeans, hugging to their hips, smoking and popping the latest drug; giving them a chance to find themselves, seek a higher vision of life. They took to the streets with Old Glory dragging behind, through the mud or dust of the street, threw her into a heap and tossed a match upon her.  Their right of freedom of speech, said they could and they did.  None knew the feeling of oppression, heavy on your soul, taking your very breath away; the spoiled little children of freedom’s land, complacent in their ways; freedom a cheap commodity.

If they found themselves, of this I am not certain, wisdom of freedom, liberty and pursuit of happiness; seems lost forever, in the minds of the wretched spoiled sixties hippies now known as progressive liberals.  From where they came they brought their children; demonstrations and anti-American rhetoric by day and safe beds of complacency by night.

Is patriotism alive or dead; perhaps it is just asleep for some but very much alive in the once silent, majority making up the tea party movement.

Today a patriot, proud to be free, took a walk on a maple lined street, past historic homes where men talked of the Revolution and where Washington encamped, a mile or two away; the Declaration of Independence, voted on in July.  The patriot approached the village post office, there a package containing a very rare copy of the Declaration of Independence awaited him; people passed him on their hurried way to somewhere. He stopped, upon the ground, crumpled and dirty, Old Glory lay; yet Americans walked by her, on her and did not care; the patriot leaned down and in his arm he held her, in the other he held the package.

Together, they walked past the old historic homes, Old Glory and the Declaration of Independence, both old and tattered, both still loved; by a patriot.

“COMMON SENSE”, I SAY, “SURRENDER”

By N. Napolitano, a Jeffersonian

How absurd, what is one thinking, asking common sense to surrender; and to what does it surrender? My dear patriots, it is not a matter of asking common sense to surrender, many do so without cause to even think, and perhaps that was the flaw in the decision, not knowing to think first. When presented with propaganda wrapped well in charismatic words, an individual, or group of citizens finds such enticing, therefore feels in need of believing falsehood, not using ‘common sense’ as a barometer of truth to falsehood. The leftists use this tactic well over centuries and millenniums for control of citizens, a slow, methodical process; more likely than not, producing a generation of willing followers.

Americans need know the tactic, being observed during the centuries may provide methods so as not to repeat history. Our friend in liberty, Mr. Jefferson aptly put it: “…..He proves also that man, once surrendering his reason, has no remaining guard against absurdities the most monstrous, and like a ship without rudder is the sport of every wind. With such persons gullability which they call faith takes the helm from the hand of reason and the mind becomes a wreck.” To James Smith, Dec. 1822. Do we need see how unreasonable giving away our inner common sense shall be to freedom’s survival, the survival of America?

May I discuss with you, the words of Mr. Jefferson, having pondered upon them for some time, and using my reasonable mind, of which I have not surrender, nor do I intend such; the importance of recognizing and acting upon the intentional threat to citizens’ survival as a free people? Patriots, citizens, understand when speeches, addresses, commentaries come your way, listen carefully; never be caught in the moment of charismatic airs, rather hold onto common sense tightly weighing each word against what is natural and logical; reasonable and not. When the words hit your ears and they grind and squeak against the norm; raise you’re your red flag, warn to others the approach of tyranny. Others have listened, naïve in thinking, had faith no one would dare harm, went on raising the white flag for hope and change that never comes; be forewarned they aim to harm freedom, they aim to take it away for their sheer pleasure of rule.

Remember the words: “ We need pass the bill so we can see what’s in it” Nancy Pelosi; common sense reasonably believes before signing any document you need to know what is it that you are signing, your signature indicates you approve of and are in agreement with the document. Why would citizens stand by, listening to the words and allow the signing or passing of any such document; yet it happened. Americans complained, I heard, but not loud enough, our voices are not yet one for liberty.

Remember the words: “ We don’t have a deficit problem, we have a revenue problem” Common sense tells us budgets rely on cash available, the money comes first, the budget comes second; a farmer does not determine how much milk he shall produce then demand from the cow a quota to meet, he milks his cow and determines his supply. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2011/02/15/945318/-We-dont-have-a-Deficit-ProblemWe-have-a-Revenue-Problem The press and media, journalists and writers, for the progressive left movement; ready to sell your common sense on the street for a buck, plaster blogs and newprint, regarding why we need more revenue to fix our deficit problems; in doing so, all the ills of the economy shall be rendered healthy. Do we believe this, can you if you have given away your common sense; for sure a unreasonable thinker would believe every word, especially if there is no regard for your own pursuit of happiness, that you only desire hand-outs rather than try succeed on your own. Tax payers no matter the bracket, earn their income and deserve the reward of enjoying it, not be penalized for working hard. Corporations hire and maintain employees, they need revenue to grow, become more competitive, create growth for expansion of the job force; heavy taxation slows the growth, encourages cutbacks, therefore does not help the economy but hinders it. Employees of large corporations should neither expect nor demand benefits from the corporation, unreasonable for the continued growth of such corporation, having unions act as mediators for demands, does not excuse the demands. Government employees should neither demand or expect benefits that exceed or mirror large corporations, such demands for benefits, exceeding the private sector, rob citizens of earned income, in the form of taxation, to benefit another extraordinarily. We cannot expect citizens who cannot afford benefits for themselves to pay for our benefits, we are all responsible for such benefits ourselves, using our own earned income, each shall save, structure and control our retirement destiny. The government has no right to force us in paying for others retirements, nor does it have a right to force us in having the government, a retirement planner. Using our own resources, our own earnings we can produce methods of retirement savings that meet or exceed current standards for far less than what is available, private sector competition always produces and delivers a better result. The citizens hear these words, shake their heads but they do nothing more, I hear the complaining, but see no action; Americans need be one voice for liberty.

Do not give into good reason for a few good slick words; they are words ready to pierce through our armor, making us vulnerable for the attack. Be wise in your thinking, listen to your common sense, give it not away, but keep it close, out of the way of the enemy. Good reasoning and common sense are all the enemy needs destroy and the whole masses are theirs for the taking. Do not think otherwise, there is no alternative to common sense and a reasonable mind, anything else is a fabrication of a socialist mind, determined by its own means for destroying a soundly educated people to a people ready for oppression. The country will falter upon its own shores and neither be able to steer it away from disaster or prevent it; all shall be lost to despotic rule or die at the hands of it.

Government is not God

The Government is not God. Too many people think that Government is some magical place where money grows on trees and gold paves the roads. You think something is not going right so you turn to the magical Government to fix it. Magical new laws will make wrongs turn into rights and criminals will magically turn into law abiding citizens. You pull money from the money tree and throw it at education and suddenly the children are smarter. You pull more money from the money tree and throw it a job creation for the under privileged and suddenly we have successful executives.

This is all a figment of someones imagination. This is not reality. There is no money tree and the streets are not paved in gold. There are no magical laws, no magical powers lurking around Washington. In fact, the powers in Washington are far from magical, they are frightening destructive to the American well being.

We have watched for too long the politicians think they are princes and princesses of the magical land of Washingtonland, where they make laws and throw money from imaginary money trees at what pet project they have in mind. Whatever the people claim is going wrong they have jumped in to fix it their way. We have seen for years what they have done to education. They have dumbed down, taken God out, shunned the gifted and praised the lazy students just make everyone happy, feel less challenged, and allow no discrimination. Has that worked out well? Not really. Our educational system pays high salaries to its teachers, gives great benefits out to its teachers but the outcome of education has not improved, in fact, in recent years it has declined. So, the answer? Washingtonland - more money from the money tree. The American People - give more control back to the parents.

Then along comes Obama, America was going through some tough economical times. Where did they begin. Why the Government intervening of course. The poor needed homes of their own, they need loans [even if they could not, would not, ever pay them back]. It was be discriminatory to not give to the poor that which the working class had worked for. So, the answer the Government had was to give it to them. That worked real well, lots of houses got sold, lots of money changed hands but then the loans started going into default. Things went down hill real fast. Jobs were lost, more loans were in default, banks were in trouble, good people couldn't get loans, businesses hurt, businesses went under, more jobs lost, more loans in default, more bank problems, more business problems - a spiral of economical disasters. So - what's the answer? Government - throw the money tree money at it, government control it, government take over. The American People - let the chips fall where they may and let everyone reorganize to begin anew while charity takes care of those in need.

Obama to the rescue or so he thinks. In his egomaniac mind he believes he is creating a new America, a better America. This is how he has been taught and trained by his handlers. He steps in and starts immediately in controlling every aspect of our capitalistic world, our banking industry , our auto industry, our health industry - what next? He has all the answers, so he thinks. Everything he touches he thinks will turn to gold - just like the streets he walks on, and everything that has a problem he will just throw his money tree money at it, trillions and trillions of dollars of it. The new America brought to you by Washingtonland. But will it work? Of course not, Washingtonland is make believe and imaginary and the American people need to wake up from their dream and realize Obama and Washingtonland is not real and we need give America back to the People where mistakes are made and mistakes make us stronger. Wimps belong in dreamland - Washingtonland, the strong belong in reality where patriots reign.

May God Bless America

America is it being murdered or commiting suicide?

Recent articles in Pravda indicate America is being watched, observed and analyzed for sometime. It is not the type of observation any country would want to be proud of, it's about watching us commit suicide or better put watching us be murdered while we helped hold the bullets for reloading for another round.

It must be an interesting study and I can only imagine the side comments. "Why are they just sitting there idle allowing the slaughter of their rights, freedoms and capitalism?" We must look pretty pathetic watching us. Why would anyone step in and say anything? Simply because from observation we seemed either to be in full participation of the slaughter or not interested enough to save ourselves from it, as no real fight was arising from the people.

The systematic slaughter has been premeditated and implemented over a period of years. Any patriot could see the early signs but unfortunately such patriots were sneered at, booed at and deaf ears turned them away. Still patriots followed the signs, tried hard to change the thoughts of few hoping for more to see the writing on the wall, yet they could turn back nothing and the systematic slaughter grew stronger. Old glory could see her country's patriots fears and waved proud but sad for she knew a new war might be on the horizon for her, this time the enemy is from within.

I meet people on the streets finally reading the writing on the wall by this time the print is too large not to read. Others still deny and treason from within, any systematic slaughter of our rights, freedoms and capitalism. It's all to help America, to save us from current problems, to help the American people, so they say, so they tell us, these SS agents from Washington. How blind are some not see what is happening? Why is it that so many watched and waited until now to speak up? Those that are blinded shall go willingly down the path to a socialist, Marxist state and wonder how they go there, too late to turn back as the gates will swing shut and their freedoms, rights and capitalism, pursuit of all happiness shall all come to an end.

For those that see and understand what is unfolding can only do what their abilities all but they must hold together knowing this country, its' future generations and their own future depends on their help and support. No longer can anyone sit idle lest all will be lost. now is the time for action amongst all patriots, we must systematically oppose further changes which will continue the slaughter transpiring today, we must fight for true changes which will restore our government back to We the People and make our America free again - free with liberty, capitalism and the opportunity to pursue what happiness we seek.

May God Bless America

Flaws in Evil lets Good Prevail

In all of history, in all of the universe you will find that good prevails and evil fails, it just happens, so the question is why does it happen? The answer is quite simple. In all evil there is always a flaw. The method of evil is not of interest, criminals, terrorists, dictators, they all act within a mind where they believe their actions are just for a certain cause important to them. A criminal works within his own personal cause and within his own mind believes that it is just and good for him to this for his own benefit. Each time he succeeds he mind rises to a new height allowing him to do it again believing he is allowed to do it again, that he is given permission to do it again because he has not been told not to. The shear act of getting away with it has given the criminal the 'okay ticket' to do it again and again, that is in his mind. A terrorist works within the same way, each time they get away with a new terrorist attack they will do it again and again. All evil doers work within this same frame work.
So why do they work like this? It's simple. Unless they are caught they continue and they will continue at a higher rate if they are not caught because they are empowered by the shear fact of their evil power. It is their evil ego that drives them and this ego empowers them more and more each time they are not caught giving them the thought they have great power over others. There is nothing different about them, it is simply that they have not been caught yet. Every criminal, whether average criminal acting on their own, a political terrorist, a political dictator, or any other evil minded, evil doer with evil thoughts and evil minded actions on your mind, you will at one point make a mistake, it is is this mistake that you will make that is your flaw, all evil has that flaw. It is that flaw that will bring them down.
So now lets take a look closely at what is going on now. We have a country that is being taken over by a group. This was a long time coming. A long time in planning. Long ago a group of evil doers needed to have a naive puppet that would take the place at the head, agree to the place, play at it, follow all orders. He agreed. He was groomed. Everything was put into place and everything moved along well. Legislation, bills, changes, all things needed were put into order so the moment he was elected not a moment would be lost in putting things into effect. There was not thought of the people. The people never counted. There never was a thought of the people, this group has one thought, this thought is total take over, total control of the country. They also have not thought of their puppet. Does he know this? Most likely not.
Where is the flaw in all this? This group is so wound up in their own evil thoughts, their own evil doings that they believe that they are beyond all flaws, they are empowered by their success in all their plans, this is where they began to fail. The minute they began to succeed in all their plans and began to feel they were so empowered, feeling so powerful, so intelligent, so beyond all others, that they failed. They picked what they thought was a great master mind, a great part of their great success, right? Obama was part of the great success, he was why their plan is succeeding, right? Wrong? He is part of their failure.
Now we need to look at the man they picked. This man who they groomed. They groomed him to speak, they groomed him to think, they groomed him to act like they wanted him to. Now they put him out there. They watched him. They watched him with his wife, a wife that acted like he did. He had, like she a dislike for America, and they were not afraid to show it. When he was put before crowds he could swoon them and he loved it. The group worked the people, they used tricks dirty or otherwise to get votes going for this man and if you dared question things got worse, we were doomed. But, this was just to turn your head long enough so Obama could swoon more crowds long enough so no one would question his birth certificate authenticity, he kept on swooning. All this time, Obama was loving it. People were screaming Messiah and he was believing it. The more they yelled we love you, the more they yelled, Messiah we want change, the more Obama believed he was the Messiah.
Now we have him in office, we have this man that believes he is the messiah. This man, only a man walks around the world with the same disdain for America as he did long before was elected apologizing for being American making America look like a third world nation ready to collapse. This man hates conservatives because he feels they are a threat to him, they are stronger than he is and he knows it, he fears them, so he hates them. He labels them terrorists. He labels real terrorists, man made disasters. He begins to take over banks, auto manufacturers, begins to tell corporations what to do and how to manage business, and the economy is still in bad shape, still is heading downhill, he takes Bushes one trillion and throws 3 trillion more at it, with not real thought in mind. He has no idea what he is doing, has no intelligence behind what he is doing. His homeland security is a disaster. He begins to break down all security. Opens Pandora's box, we all wonder what next. What will happen tomorrow? We all wonder. He is on a Bush hate campaign, with his information seeking mission into the torture issues of the Bush Administration. This whole thing stinks. In my opinion this is nothing more than a mission to get at conservatives, those that he hates, he has not, does not and can not stand Bush, not anyone in his administration, it is his way and those around him, with the same dislikes to go after Bush. What they do not realize is that if they go after Bush and set a precedent then the next administration can do the same with him, he is either ruining future security for the CIA or setting his own butt up of scrutiny or he thinks there will be no other administration.
The people are noticing, the people are seeing, hearing that the change they wanted, the change they thought they were going to get was not coming their way. Taxes are being raised, more money is going out, jobs were being lost, more pork was going into the bail out packages with less money going out to the people. So what do the people do when they what change, real change? They hit the streets, they ask for it. Ask for the changes they want. Tea Parties everywhere are spring up across the nation. Everyone is talking about the tea parties. Everyone but Obama. He says he did not hear about them. Either he is deaf or dumb, which is it? He wants those people to love him, he believes that where ever he goes the people adore him, praise him, bow down to him, just like he bows down to leaders of other nations. No more will the people bow down to him, Americans want only for him to stop taking from them and give back their rights.
Soon the tea parties will increase, soon there will be more and more people listening and learning that the Obama who swooned them told them lies. Americans will be swooned no longer. Soon the tea parties will increase more and more. The people will not believe in the man as a messiah any longer. Obama was only a man, never a messiah. He was only a man, a man with an ego, a big ego, that believed only in himself, only believed in his own greatest which empowered him.
Just as in the last days of Nero's Rome after it had burned, Nero believed he himself was a God and the people greatly loved him until they found out he was intrumental in downfall and perhaps the burning of Rome itself. The people in crowd converged on the palace, "why are people all coming" he said, "they love me?" [they did not and he commited suicide] ------ The big tea party will come to Washington------Obama will be heard to say---- 'and why are all these people coming, I am the their messiah'.
And he will fail, he is flawed--- standing all empowered, believing to be the messiah and seeing that all his greatest is wiped out, his ego crushed before him, the people of America marching across his plans of dictatorship burying it into the soil beneath their soles as they wave their flags of victory for liberty.
So it goes---"the wrong shall fail, the right prevail......" Henry W. Longfellow

Radicals and Terriorists who are they really?

Yesterday as I stood with other Americans I began to wonder how is it that someone could even begin to think that these peace type of individuals could ever be called radicals or terrorists. How is it and when was it that the table got turned that the very peaceful people that prayed for radicals and terrorists to be found, brought to justice and forever banned from our land are now the ones being sought after, put on lists and soon to be banned from air ways or worse yet from this very land we love?
Then it hit me - FEAR. There are two things that drive people Love and Fear. We Americans today are driven to Tea Parties because we Love our country, we Love our Constitution, we Love our Freedoms; therefore we are out in numbers to support each other in making sure our constitution and our freedoms are upheld. Then there is Fear, this drives another group. Fear that they will lose power, that they will lose the foothold they have in Congress, in the Senate, the Fear that they will lose grace with the media that loves them so, or so they perceive it so, they Fear that if Americans have the government the way it was designed the Washington Elitests, along with Obama will lose out, lose their hold, lose their control on Americans.
So what did this all Fearing group in Washington do? They turned their fear on the Loving Americans, they put the Fear on us. By making us Fear that we will be put on a list, will be watched, will be sought after, will be told what to do, when to do and how to do it --- or else! We will Fear being a loving American and will obey our Washington Elitests. But will we?
If we give in the Fearful Washington Elitests we are giving up, we are saying to our Founding Fathers, "Thanks for everything but we are too weak too uphold the gift you gave us, which is liberty." But, are we a weak people? I do not think we are. I believe we are a strong group, a loving, peaceful group, with the same vision of freedom and liberties that are founding fathers had and we will again see it through. I saw that sparkle in the eyes of so many yesterday and I know that they are all willing to walk the walk. None of them are willing to give up or give into Washington. If what our Founding Fathers sought is what Washington considers extremism, or radicalism, or terrorism then we are in good company because these men were men of great wisdom and great virtue. What do we have to fear when we have the spirit of these men on our side?
May God Bless America!
