First of all, think on this: There is no such thing as objective reality.   If the American people don’t get the whole truth of what is taking place this election season, life as we know it will be gone for good.

 

In all life, life is a struggle, and then came human keepers of life, better known as environmentalists.  What could be more noble than saving the planet?  Greedy capitalists are polluting, using up natural resources, utterly disregarding other life.   

 

Environmentalists are feeling people who know better than average folks how to save the planet. Their end justifies the means. Children know better than adults what is good for all. Capitalism is bad. Environmentalists  capitalize on reeducating America’s children.  Capitalists  drain natural resources; encourages greed; take from the poor.  Collectively,  we can beat greedy capitalists polluting  the environment.  Radical Islam, collectively  on the same wave length, they took down the World Trade Center “with their bare hands.”

 

There is something missing in how we’re being educated to save the planet. There is always  those who want to radically change the world.   The missing element is the intent of human life.  Humans were not meant to be trained to jump through the hoops of those with a calling to save the planet from disaster. We were not created with hive mentality.  We were created with reason and logic.

 

You are reading the thoughts of an individual who cut from the herd. I went on my own.  According to those educating us on how to save the planet—always that we must radically change to the way they have it—on  my own, when life could have easily gone wrong for me, everything went right.  Environmentalists are dead wrong. Come to think of it, my way is the way it was with America’s pioneers.  On their own, they built the greatest, most generous nation ever in the history of the world.  Being on our own does not necessarily spell greed, not anymore than being on the taxpayer’s back spells generosity.  Whose cause is greater, mine, or the environmentalists?  Environmentalists have a bigger than life calling.  I studied the U. S. Constitution and felt that voices of the past were speaking to me. I had a bigger than life calling.

 

I was created with reason and logic.  What makes my logic inferior to the environmentalists?  They have not proven their case.  They are going to the young and inexperienced,  to the ignorant and irresponsible with their pleas.  Does the majority vote make right; I, by myself, make wrong?  It is me or the environmentalists.

 

America began with pioneers who took personal responsibility.  They built a prosperous economy, made life relatively easy for the American people.  Wolves in sheep’s clothing move in when life is easy, when people begin to want cradle to grave security.  America turned from a nation of rugged individuals  into a hothouse environment, government twisting valves and pulling levers. Do I not know what is better for me than the majority vote?  If it is the majority vote, then why would I take personal responsibility for my life? 

 

“The very purpose of the Bill of Rights was to withdraw certain subjects from the vicissitudes of political controversy, to place them beyond the reach of the majorities and officials and establish them as legal principles to be applied by the courts.” West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette.  

 

It is always some noble cause. After Germany self-destructed, when the German people were desperate for answers, along came Hitler with promises of making things right and blaming Germany’s Jews for everything that went wrong.  The pattern is unmistakable. Those who vote for the environmentalists, without taking into consideration that they are voting for giving up control of their lives, are asking for slavery.

 

We can be cognizant of the environment and not be taken in by self-serving frauds spreading  half truths that aid no one but themselves.   A vote for any mainstream Republican or any Democrat is a vote for government control over your life.

 

I looked within for my answers and discovered the power that lies in me.  My life is good.  Are you not blessed with reason and logic?  Before you cast your vote, I recommend that you study the U.S. Constitution.  It was written with you in the driver’s seat and your best interests in mind.

Posted on America’s Survival-By Cliff Kincaid-On May 30, 2011:

“Adam Kokesh, an American who stars on KGB-TV, otherwise known as RT or Russia Today television, staged a publicity stunt at the Jefferson Memorial on May 28 and is now complaining about his arrest for “dancing.” His video is getting attention from the media, while his followers are insisting that he was the victim of harsh police tactics. But an examination of the video of his arrest shows that the event was a planned provocation by professional agitators arranged in coordination with Medea Benjamin of Code Pink, who was also arrested.

Kokesh anchors the “Adam Vs. The Man” TV show on Russia Today, an English-language channel provided in the U.S. and other Western countries which is funded by the Moscow regime of Vladimir Putin, a former KGB officer. The channel is considered a propaganda outlet for Russian intelligence services and hired an alleged Russian spy who is in the process of being deported from Britain.

One of the regular stars of the Kokesh show is Luke Rudkowski, the founder of We Are Change and advocate of the theory that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were staged by the U.S. Government and blamed on Muslims.

The Kokesh stunt, which included advance notice to the press and demonstrators armed with cameras to record the inevitable confrontation, appears to have been designed to generate interest in Kokesh’s show on the Russian government-funded propaganda channel and to depict the U.S. as a police state.

An “anti-war” veteran, former Republican candidate for Congress, and Ron Paul supporter who called for the impeachment of President Bush, Kokesh wants the public to believe that he was arrested for “dancing” at the site when the video actually shows that he and his associates were engaged in disorderly conduct. Their activities succeeded in closing down access to the memorial while the arrests were in progress.

A local report on the Fox TV affiliate in Washington by reporter Roz Plater treated the protesters at the Jefferson Memorial as innocent victims of the police and even showed Benjamin inviting more demonstrators to the memorial for another protest.

What the reporter failed to point out is that Code Pink is a pro-Marxist organization that disrupted several appearances by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington and staged a demonstration calling for an end to military aid to Israel. Benjamin has met with leaders of the terrorist group Hamas but claims she doesn’t support terrorist organizations.

A U.S. District Court has ruled that the Park Service has a substantial interest in promoting a “tranquil environment” at national memorials and can forbid activities that interfere with that atmosphere. The law is not intended to interfere with free speech and but to protect the rights of families to appreciate the solemn nature of the memorials.

The video clearly shows a police officer warning the “dancers” that demonstrations, including dancing, would get them arrested.

A series of email exchanges on the controversy at the Jefferson Memorial produced this response from an attorney about the way Kokesh was handled: “He was not arrested for dancing. He was engaged in an act of disorderly conduct. He was requested to cease and desist several times and did not. He intentionally provoked the Park Police to where he gave them no option but to restrain him. He resisted and got exactly what he was attempting to make happen. Where are your concerns for the innocent people attending with their families? How about their rights to attend and not have their rights infringed upon by this intentional act of disturbing the peace of another. I am afraid that I might have been a little more physical than the Park Police with this jerk.”

As Medea Benjamin and an associate were arrested, Kokesh is visible in the background, wearing sunglasses and a “Disobey” T-shirt, dancing around and trying to draw attention to himself. The police react by taking him to the ground, after several unheeded warnings of “get to your knees,” and arresting him.

“I’ve got a bad shoulder,” one of the protesters whines, as he is handcuffed. Another was yelling, “This is a police state.”

The demonstration fits right into the anti-American propaganda line of Russia Today, which has been described by Konstantin Preobrazhensky, a former Soviet KGB officer who defected to the West, as “a part of the Russian industry of misinformation and manipulation” of foreign audiences. The obvious purpose in this case is to suggest that the U.S. is an oppressive state with no right to criticize the Kremlin’s increasingly authoritarian nature.

Another example of such fare is the RT story, “FBI targeting political activists as terrorists,” which faults the FBI for investigating far-left groups for having international Marxist connections or links to violence. “The FBI and other government agencies are cracking down on those who are not willing to say in line with the status quo,” the propaganda piece claims. In this case, the FBI reportedly raided the home of an activist with alleged links to a Marxist-Leninist group, the Freedom Road Socialist Organization. Other members of this group were raided by the FBI last September, on suspicions of providing support to foreign terrorist organizations.

RT regularly features Marxist and radical commentators in the U.S. such as Noam Chomsky, Gloria La Riva of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, Carl Dix of the Revolutionary Communist Party, and 9/11 “inside job” advocate and radio host Alex Jones.

Jones, who describes himself as “a loyal American who loves my country,” has appeared regularly on RT to denounce U.S. foreign policy and even to defend Russia’s invasion of Georgia.

While he offers up a lot of anti-government views, which strike a chord with some libertarians, Kokesh is also at the service of the liberal-left, interviewing figures such as Medea Benjamin and “social justice” advocate Jim Wallis of Sojouners. Interestingly, his followers have suggested such figures as Ron Paul, Alex Jones, Andrew Napolitano, and Noam Chomsky as guests on his show.

Kokesh represents an anti-American mix of commentators from across the political spectrum, all designed to make America look like a bad place to live.

Not surprisingly, Russia Today interviewed Kokesh on the air about the “dancing” controversy, giving him yet another platform to spout his nonsense about “the brutal nature of the police force.” RT was obviously pleased with the effort by their American employee to disrupt U.S. Memorial Day activities.

However, on the Free Republic website, one person noted: “These people knew the rules when they went there. They went there to start trouble at a place where thousands of real Americans go to learn about history and honor our founding fathers. They asked stupid questions of the Park police when they already knew what the result would be. They got what they wanted, they got arrested. I thought the police were exceptionally restrained. Park Police are probably the most professional of all of the police departments in DC.”

Posted on Israel National News-By Elad Benari-On May 30, 2011:

Israeli lawyers and international law experts have contacted UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, demanding that he prevent the Palestinian Authority’s resolution asking for recognition of a Palestinian state within the 1949 armistice lines from being raised at the UN General Assembly in September.

The lawyers say that UN recognition of such a state would be “in contrary to international law, UN resolutions and existing agreements.”

The signatories on the letter include Dr. Alan Baker, former legal adviser for the Foreign Ministry and Israeli Ambassador to Canada, as well as Dr. Meir Rosenne, former legal adviser for the Foreign Ministry, Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. and one of the authors of the peace agreement with Egypt. Also signed are law Professors Talia Einhorn and Eliav Shochetman, as well as dozens of other experts in international law and lawyers.

In the letter, the lawyers ask Secretary-General Ban to appeal to the General Assembly members to prevent the adoption of the Palestinian state resolution, since such a decision would stand in outright opposition to any agreements, which were signed between Israel and the Palestinian Authority as well as to Security Council resolutions 242 (1967) and 338 (1973).

The lawyers bring up the decision of The Council of the League of Nations dated July 24, 1922. The decision, which was adopted unanimously, calls for the establishment of a Jewish national home, including the right to increase Jewish settlement in all the historical territory of Israel, including Judea, Samaria and east Jerusalem. This decision was approved by both houses of the U.S. Congress on June 30, 1922.

Furthermore, state the lawyers, Article 80 of the UN Charter stipulates that the UN recognizes all decisions made by The Council of the League of Nations, which preceded it and therefore, the 650,000 Jews currently living in Judea, Samaria and east Jerusalem are living there legally.

The lawyers further argue that the commonly used term ‘1967 borders’ is invalid since it refers to the 1949 armistice lines and it was expressly stated in those agreements that the armistice lines would not be interpreted in any way as an international border. They note that according to Security Council resolutions 242 and 338, the parties are committed to conduct negotiations to bring about peace in the Middle East, within secure and recognized borders and with a just solution for all refugees, Jews and Arabs alike.

They determine that a proposal by the PA for a unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state will be a fundamental breach of Article 31 of the Oslo Accords which were signed between Israel and the Palestinian Authority in 1995, and in which it was determined that the PA would not initiate or take any steps that will change the status of Judea and Samaria until the end of negotiations, and that the issue of the borders will be determined only through negotiations. When the Palestinian Authority signed on these commitments, hundreds of thousands of Jews had already lived in Judea, Samaria and east Jerusalem and the PA recognized that the status of these areas will not change until the negotiations end.

“Although the Interim Agreement was signed between Israel and the Palestinian Authority,” write the lawyers, “the U.S., EU, Russia, Norway, Jordan, Egypt and the United Nations signed it as witnesses and will not be able to take part in the violation of the agreement by the Palestinians.”

The lawyers therefore end the letter by calling on Ban Ki-moon to stop the PA attempt to circumvent the negotiation process that was decided upon by the UN Security Council and the agreements signed between the parties.

Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has constantly reiterated he would seek the unilateral declaration of a PA state by the United Nations if a peace deal is not reached with Israel come September.

At the same time, he has flatly refused to come to the negotiating table and has manufactured preconditions when pressure has been brought to bear on the PA by the Quartet, especially the United States, for the PA to restart peace talks with Israel.

Meanwhile, it was reported on Sunday that the IDF is purchasing non-lethal riot control gear to deal with large-scale Palestinian Authority violence expected in September, when PA Arabs are expected to attempt various violent provocations after the discussion in the United Nations.”

Happy Memorial Day/ Tea Are The World

4063314712?profile=originalA few Memorial Days ago, I was sitting comfortably on my sofa, enjoying salty snacks and a refreshing sweet tea while watching a program honoring our military on TV. Mary would inform me when the charcoals were ready to throw on the steaks. Life was good.

 

Featured in the TV program was Veteran actor, Charles Durning who was a U.S. Army Ranger during WWII. Durning won the Silver Star for gallantry and was awarded three Purple Hearts for bravery at Normandy.

 

Despite his remarkable achievements and sacrifices for freedom, still moved after all these years, Durning humbly stood at the podium and wept for his fallen brothers. Wow, do they make real men like Durning anymore?

 

After the TV program honoring Durning and other American heroes, the following program honored great American conscientious objectors.

 

Folks, it was quite annoying watching these guys, conscientious objectors, being portrayed as superior human beings while pontificating about the evils of war and why they chose not to participate. I thought, “You guys are free to enjoy success, freedom and spout your crap “in English” because brave men like Charles Durning fought on your behalf. How dare you!”

 

4063314721?profile=originalDebbie Lee is the mom of Marc Alan Lee, the first Navy SEAL killed in Iraq. On numerous occasions, Marc stepped up putting himself at risk to defend his fellow soldiers. In response to the death of her decorated son and experiencing first hand the challenges facing the families of fallen soldiers, Debbie Lee founded AmericasMightyWarriors.org. http://bit.ly/iSLTD1

 

Almost a year ago, musicians, singers and bands across America responded to my call to come together to record a song titled, Taking Back America and donate their recorded songs for an album to celebrate America, honor our military and benefit the families of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice, AmericasMightyWarriors.org.

 

The response was overwhelming. From Country music to rap by a black conservative and every genre in between, we selected the best 44 songs from hundreds of submissions. Jo Piazza at FoxNews titled the project, Tea Are The World.

 

Now, here is the truly heartwarming divine providence aspect of the project. We had no money for recording, manufacturing, distribution or marketing. When asked about such details, my response was, “I don't know?” I felt God only instructed me to put out the call to musicians. He did not fill me in on how it would all come together.

 

Remember the old Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland movies? In the films a character would say, “Let's put on our own show!” Another character would say, “That's a great idea! My uncle has 500 chairs stored in his garage.” They would rally together and put on an amazing production.

 

Tea Are The World pretty much came together the same way. Get this folks, around 100 musicians across America flew or drove, on their own dime, to Deltona Records in Florida to record, Taking Back America.

 

Emmy winning TV producer Norvell Rose informed me that he and his son, Conner, would be coming down from Virginia to attend the recording session to produce a music video and “Making of Tea Are The World” documentary; all for FREE. Both are included on DVD in the Tea Are The World package.

 

Deltona Records owner, music producer and engineer Frank Starchak is famed for recording Tupac Shakur and numerous other celebrities. Starchak recorded and produced the 100 musicians singing, Taking Back America. Starchak also mastered the 44 song double CD set included in the Tea Are The World package; completely FREE of charge.

 

Professional distributor, Tom Horn, offered to distribute Tea Are The World FREE of charge.

 

Singer, Lisa Scott Kelly and Debbie Lee, founder of AmericasMightyWarriors.org, shook the trees and found funds for manufacturing; which was our only expense. Everything has been donated.

 

Rev. Minion told me how his wife Danielle, a professional graphic designer, got involved. Upon hearing about Tea Are The World on the news, Danielle said, “Honey, I feel I am suppose to help these people”.

 

Danielle Minion designed the Tea Are The World package and promotional materials. She did all of the production artwork work needed to prepare the package for manufacturing. Danielle donated her services FREE of charge.

 

Now here is the kicker, after Danielle committed to our project, she became pregnant. Of her three pregnancies, this one has been the worst; sick almost very day. Then, Danielle's files of the project became corrupted. Rev. Minion said in Danielle's years in the business, never have so many things interrupted her completing a project.

 

Folks, I am pleased and grateful to announce that Tea Are The World is completed, beautifully packaged and available for purchase. Praise God.

 

4063314534?profile=originalPlease do not think I am dissing other fund raisers. I am simply stating a fact. With some, when the dust clears, as little as 10% goes to the charity. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of Tea Are The World go to AmericasMightyWarriors.org which benefits the families of our fallen soldiers.

 

Because of the sacrifices of our military which include brave women and men like Charles Durning and Marc Alan Lee, we are blessed to enjoy Memorial Day cookouts with our families. Please remember the families of our fallen soldiers; AmericasMightyWarriors.org.

Happy Memorial Day!

The current clowns that are running in the R primary have no chance of beating Oblahblah.  

 

There was only one person that actually  fired up conservatives and that was Donald Trump.  However, he jumped ship after he realized ABC,NBC,CBS,CNN,MSNBC, and CNBC were going to attack him and his family for the next 18 months.  Not only that the Rep elite ( Karl Rover) (Rush Pinball) did not want an outsider come in and disrupt their heritage foundation party train.

 

Finally, if I hear Sean Hannity and Fox campaigning for Bachman one more time and stating she represents me and the tea party I will puke.

Posted on The Daily Caller-By Alexis Levinson-On May 30, 2011:

Approval for Barack Obama’s job performance as president is lower among veterans and active US military than it is among non-military, according to a poll released Monday by Gallup.

The results, which came from data from Gallup’s daily tracking poll of Obama’s job approval, are based on interviews with over 238,000 respondents between January 2010 and April 2011.

On average, 48 percent of non-military personnel surveyed over that time period approved of the job Obama was doing, while just 37 percent of active military or veterans approved.

That trend persists among all age groups, the analysis found. The spread is most pronounced among 18 to 29 year olds, a group that tends to have a highly favorable view of this president’s performance. 58 percent of non-military in that age group approves of the job Obama is doing, but just 44 percent of veterans or active military felt that way.

The lowest spread is among those aged 80 to 99, where 43 percent of the general public approves of the job Obama is doing, compared to 37 percent of veterans or active military personnel – presumably mostly veterans in that age group.

Gallup notes that those currently serving active duty in the military have a noticeably higher likelihood of declining to state an opinion on Obama’s job performance. For instance, 21 percent of active duty military aged 18 to 29 did not express an opinion, compared to just 10 percent of non-military. A possible factor in this, Gallup Editor in Chief Frank Newport writes, is the military culture of nonpartisanship, especially when dealing with the Commander in Chief. Alternatively, “[t]hose on active duty may in general be less involved in current affairs and thus less likely to hold an opinion on Obama.”

Women are more likely to approve of Obama’s performance. However, in any given age group surveyed by Gallup, no more than 3 percent of military personnel or veterans were women. Older age groups are more likely to be active or former military – a fact that seems likely due to the existence of the draft before 1973.

Current or former members of the military are more likely to be Republicans, the poll notes.

The results come from analysis of polls conducted before President Obama ordered the successful killing of Osama Bin Laden. The president received a bump in his approval ratings from the general public after that, and it seems likely that the same would be true – potentially more so – among veterans or active military.”

Happy Memorial Day!

Outside Independence Hall when the Constitutional Convention of 1787 ended,  Mrs. Powel of Philadelphia asked Benjamin Franklin, "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"

With no hesitation whatsoever,  Franklin responded, "A republic, if you can keep it."

Our troops have and are doing their share!  What are we doing??

WAKE UP AMERICA BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Fraud, Waste and Abuse in the Federal Government has been going on for many years and that is part of the reason that the United States is going broke.  Instead of having the federal civil service do the job they were hired for, the Federal Government has been contracting out those jobs at a cost of three (3) times, (Yes Virginia...you read that correctly ... three (3) times) the normal cost it would have cost the taxpayers if the civil service were allowed to do the work.  Why would they contract out the work that can be easily done internally by the civil servants.  One of the reasons is to benefit their friends and supporters.  Another is that civil service management is too lazy to roll up their sleeves to manage government employees properly and firmly.  Another is contractors are putting enormous pressure on the Federal Government to generate contracts for which there is little or no need.  I am sure that there are other reasons.  Some contracts are legitimate in that the civil service does not have the extraordinary skills to do the job.  Even some of those jobs can be learned over a period of years by civil servants which ultimately will result in a terrific savings to the taxpayers.  The sad part of this fraud, waste and abuse of the taxpayers money is that both parties are guilty of this contracting/economic nightmare.  Of course, the Contractors have to spread propaganda that the federal civil service is too mentally challenged to perform these contractual jobs.  More lies and BS from those who would benefit monetarily from the contracting policies of the United State Government.

The Tea Party, a political cause for conservatives, is great.  As a World War II veteran who saw combat in Germany, who saw with my own eyes the victims of the Holocaust, he who protects Ameica, who protects him?  Are we going to endure yet another Holocaust?  For what purpose was my sacrifice?

My conservative philosophy fits the Tea Party. I’m neither for the Republican mainstream nor for Democrats.  But this says little about my philosophy.  I assume that most conservatives are religious. Democrats call it the “religious right.”  I’m not religious.  I assume most conservatives are conformist. I’m not.  It is going to take more than religion and conformists—political conservatives—to turn the ship of state around. We are heading for the rocks. It is going to take true liberals, the kind who gave us our America, the pioneers who faced an unknown future with optimism, energy, and the belief in self, the kind of American today’s liberals don’t know, and as well many conservatives. We don't know what my generation knows.

 

It is going to take a new approach to life, the approach the American pioneer had. That is where I excel. I’ve been through the school of hard knocks.  I have lots of experience.  I’ve learned my lessons well. If life could be any better, I don’t know how. Now in the twilight of life, this is my time to be of universal service.

 

Shall we say, my born again life began on Good Friday, 1975, the day we commemorate as the day Christ was hung from the cross. I arrived in Miami, Florida on Easter Sunday for the first day of a new life.  Although I didn’t think about it at the time, it was an omen of things to come for me, something to look back on with awe.

 

There was also this about my departure.  By chance, I’d met an astrologer and had him create my astrological chart.   It didn’t fit. I didn’t think much of it.  I grew into my chart. Now it fits like a hand in a glove.  A study of astrology tells me at the time of my departure, Uranus, my ruling planet, had transited to a position opposing itself when I was born, when I was in my forties. I departed when I was 49, when the opposition of Uranus to itself said I’d be under pressure to change my life.  There is also this about my departure.  I was born with Aquarius on the rise. This means that as I aged I’d become more Aquarian in nature.  The symbol of Aquarius is the water-bearer.  There are a lot of coincidences about my departure, too many as far as I’m concerned, to be coincidence.

 

Although I was not aware at the time of my departure, there had to be a purpose.  Prior to my departure, I had read the Constitution and studied the procedure for challenging my income tax.  When I read the Constitution, I felt that voices of the past were speaking to me.  I had a bigger than life calling. This figures in with the time of my departure.   

 

My astrological chart gives me this so-called trine, an angular alignment between Saturn, the learning planet with Pluto, the generational planet  that says in Astrologer’s Handbook I would have the ability to understand the laws by which subtle forces are organized.  And just by coincidence, in November, 2008, the month and year Obama was elected President, Saturn went into angular opposition with Pluto. Astrologer’s Handbook says this means serious karmic problems—victims of oppression, cruelty, and other harsh treatment, usually because of personal connection with adverse conditions of mass destiny. Ah yes, we’ve got that big time. Too bad about Israel.

 

On the other hand, with Saturn trine Pluto, says Astrologer’s Handbook, I would make fundamental changes in my life and others lives. “Often there is a sense of destiny or a peculiar karmic mission which they must fulfill.”

 

Over the past ten years, I’ve written hundreds of blogs on the meaning of my life experience, and many on this Tea Party blog.  It isn’t something others know or think about, but, strangely, it fits. The same as I,  America faces an unknown future.  Does my personal experience mean anything?  If life could be any better for me, I don’t know how.

 

Something else I’ve learned in the past 10 years, my Christian teaching misinterpreted Christ’s teachings.  The God my Christian teaching gave me did zero for me.  In fact, it was a hindrance.  After I’d successfully made a life of my own, with no one’s help, I started reading the Bible, and wondered how people could be so misled.  For instance, in the Lord’s Prayer, Jesus said in earth as it is in heaven, followed by you can’t serve two masters, followed by “seek ye first the kingdom of God.”  Christians believe in pie in the sky, and you’ve got to tithe to get there.  Isn’t that what got Jesus crucified?  He turned over the moneychangers tables.  People were exchanging their gold and silver coins for worthless priest coinage for the purpose of getting pie in the sky.  As always, it is setting up a fraudulent system to rob the individual of his power, to enhance the power of control freaks.  From this we get war.  Does God favor the victor of war?  I think of God as the creator of life, life that knows reason and logic, something religion does not know.  Religion knows doctrines and dogmas that include a supernatural God; that is, anything man wants to make God.

 

I had tried so hard to do the right thing. Nobody knew how hard I tried.  I had been a good citizen, generously given of myself.  Nobody appreciated all that I had done.  The world is so cruel.  I was angry at my government.  I lashed out at the IRS.  Everyone knows that the IRS is no one to mess with.  I didn’t know that.  I beat the IRS.  But more than that, I had a calling to be more than a poor me the world kicked in the butt.  I discovered the real me. After that, when everything should have gone wrong, everything went right.  

 

From whence did I come?  I believe the kingdom of God is in me, that I’m a God-self.  Why do I need to live in guilt, or to pay to get to a non-existent place, as though an almighty Wizard in Heaven knows infinitely more than any man.  Why of course, the divine put that idea in us?  What could be more demeaning?  No, it is not the Muslim Brotherhood, or the divine in Washington, D.C., according to my Constitution.  I’ve good news. I’m here for a worthy purpose in my own right. When I die, my God-self returns without the help of a manmade almighty Wizard, to a fictious place called Heaven.   

 

Why is the Middle East going up in flames? Why is the world now tottering on the edge of a financial precipice? Jesus said to the religious of all faiths in Mt. 7:5: “First cast out the beam out of thine own eye, and see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” Then when you pray, said Jesus, “ask and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find” (Mt. 7:7).

 

We are at the dawning of the Age of Aquarius and the God of our future. As in any birth, there is pain. The road to a world living in peace and prosperity stretches before us to a new horizon.  In Astrologer’s Handbook, under Aquarius, we read, “Individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity have as their symbol the water-bearer who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy. Since the planet Uranus rules Aquarius, friendship and companionship are extremely important to Aquarians. Those who Aquarians befriend have their unswerving loyalty.”  The Age of Aquarius is the equivalent of the second coming of Christ.

America turning it's back on the Jews!

I am a practicing Catholic and have traveled to Israel it's breaks my heart to see what this president did this past week to my brothers and Jesus's brothers in that ancient land. I am not a conspiracy person at all but I have never questioned the judgment of our president like I am with Obama. Failed economic policy, failed foriegn policy, failed energy policy, failed healthcare policy, failure to get the Olympics policy, failure of hope and change, failure to get a British toast right policy, failure to close Guantonimo policy. Failure to bring unemployment down policy.It sickens me that more and more people don't overwhelmingly see this. But then again I live in California. I'll bet 2012 will be a very close election.The Jews! We need to support them with all our might! They have done nothing wrong and have been for peace. Ever since the world unanamously gave them Israel after WWII a plot to detroy them has haunted them. They have faught wars defending themselves, been the victims of terror and are living in fear of genoicide from the radical sectors of their neighbors. Somebody please step up and get pissed off and lead our great nation.

A Tribute To Our Veterans

A Tribute to Our Veterans, all!

Where ever the seeds of democracy take root, they are always watered with the blood of American hero's! Those hero's who gave their life, limbs, and time to uphold the Constitution, to remove tyranny, and to retard communism. They laid their lives down on the alter of freedom, for us, and others to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Our founders wrote the Constitution ...:In order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." Our hero's enshrined those words on our hearts and minds, written by the finger of God dipped in their blood. God Bless America! Thank you veterans, all!

May we all remember freedom isn't free! And, we all owe it to those that perished on the alter of freedom to remove domestic tyranny whenever and where ever it rears its ugly head. Allowing one instance of any form of tyranny to remain in the United States is an insult, a disgrace, and a slap in the face to all those that paid to remove it.

Angelo had just posted me that I should ask Alex on.  Alright.  Alex--COME ON IN.  Call-in # is 646-200-4032.

Angelo, I'm going to ask that you meet the challenge you issued to Alex---YOU KNOW THE NUMBER.

Posted on Canada Free Press-By Move America Forward-On May 27, 2011:

“In the latest and most outrageous move, the Obama administration wants to cut pay and/or benefits for our troops and their families, even those deployed overseas fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq, in order to reign in budgetary spending.

It’s the classic game that the liberals play whenever they are in power – they are always quick to claim they support the troops, but the military is always first on the chopping block. Yesterday Secretary of Defense Robert Gates revealed that the Obama Administration was considering cutting military paychecks when he said in a speech at the American Enterprise Institute.

“The defense secretary said the strategic review could require politicians to look at other uncomfortable choices, including pay levels for service members, new approaches for retirement and pensions, or higher healthcare costs for working-age retirees.” - David Alexander, Reuters 24 MAY 2011

Thanks to the Obama Administration, the gilded age where America supported it’s troops in times of war may be coming to an end, and this commander-in-chief may be asking our troops to fight two wars while at the same time GIVING UP pay, and benefits both for themselves, their spouses and their children!

DON’T LET OBAMA CUT OUR TROOPS PAYCHECKS!MAKE A DONATION TO MAF TO HELP US PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND STOP THIS INSANE IDEA!

At Move America Forward we advocate on behalf of our troops and their missions in the war on terror, and that goes beyond sending care packages to the troops on the front lines. We will stand and fight the Administration on this because it’s unconscionable to ask our troops to take a pay cut while there are a million other places in the budget to cut. Our troops deserve fair and decent compensation, and they deserve for their families to be taken care of after what they sacrifice for us every day!

If you ever wonder about what our troops go through for our sake, just remember where they are serving – it’s almost June now, and these troops are out in the middle of the desert in Baghdad where temperatures reach blazing triple digits on a daily basis.

Afghanistan also reaches extreme temperatures, even worse because it has extreme highs in the summer and extreme cold snaps in the winter.

With Memorial Day coming up this Monday, we must show that we support our troops, and in high temperatures like these, our troops are going to need these care packages! Each care package comes with Gatorade to help cool off our troops and keep them hydrated in the hot desert sun!

MEMORIAL DAY IS ALMOST HERE! SEND A CARE PACKAGE WITH SOME GATORADE FOR OUR THIRSTY TROOPS NOW!

Can you imagine what it would feel like to be serving overseas, fighting the war on terror in Iraq or Afghanistan, far away from your family, and then you receive a letter in from your own Government, saying that your paycheck is going to get cut and the prescription medicine for your kid’s ear infection that used to get covered by your militaryhealthcare plan is now going to have to be paid out of pocket and there’s nothing you can do about it because you’re 6,700 miles away from home dodging bullets and trying to shoot back and kill these crazy radical Islamic terrorists!

It’s a slap in the face to our military for the Obama administration to be pushing for this, and it is despicable that Defense Secretary Robert Gates is doing the dirty work for President Obama and breaking the news to the troops who have served under him. What a horrid legacy to leave. He will retire next month on this weak note of failure to find a more suitable place to cut the $500 million that Obama has demanded the Pentagon cut.”

Note:  The following article and/or blog post reveals that Gates is also targeting Veteran retirement pay and healthcare-You Decide:

Gates Targets Retirement, Health Care!-Posted on MOAA.org-On May 27, 2011:

In a speech at the American Enterprise Institute this week Defense Secretary Robert Gates reiterated his assertion that DoD needs to fundamentally change the way it does business. 

He said procurement overhaul already has produced significant savings, and identified force size and structure, military compensation, retirement, and health care as additional targets for budget cuts to achieve a planned $400 billion in DoD budget savings over the next 10 years.

Gates launched a comprehensive review of DoD’s future needs last week to identify specific recommendations. Among the specifics he cited were:

  • Lowering military compensation in light of strong recruiting and retention numbers 
  • Eliminating the “one size fits all” military retirement system in favor of a tiered and targeted retirement system that weights compensation towards the most in-demand specialties 
  • Increasing health care cost-sharing for working-age retirees

Considering the staggering debt facing the nation, the reality is that anything the government spends money on is going to come under great pressure for cutbacks in coming years. 


But it’s troubling to hear Pentagon leadership citing the same old arguments that led to short-sighted changes of the 1970s, ‘80s, and ‘90s that ultimately caused significant retention and readiness problems. 



Sustaining pay comparability – through good budget times and bad – is a fundamental underpinning of the all-volunteer force. We’ve spent the last decade recovering from the follies of the past. Cutting back on military pay every year we experience satisfactory recruiting and retention is a proven method to create future retention problems. It’s the equivalent of driving a car by looking only in the rear-view mirror. Sooner or later, you’re going to crash. 



On the retirement front, the country should thank its lucky stars it has the current 20-year retirement system, because it’s the primary reason we’ve been able to sustain the force through the last decade of war. The last retirement reform – the REDUX system of 1986 that cut lifetime retirement value by 22% for subsequent entrants – had to be repealed after it caused retention problems.

Now DoD budgeteers envision saving money by cutting retirement even more than REDUX did – by making military people fund more of their own retirement, delaying eligibility for retired pay until age 57 or later, and changing the retirement contribution every year based on the shortage skills of the time. They propose making it “fairer” by vesting military retirement benefits after 10 years of service. 



But this system would blatantly take money from people who serve a career to pay people who leave early, creating a retention and readiness time bomb. 



If you had 10 years of service, were facing a fourth tour to Afghanistan, and were given the choice of separating with a pro-rata retirement or being required to keep serving until age 57 to earn a regular retirement (knowing the military will still want to push most people off active duty well before that age), what would you do? 



Budget-cutters always focus on short-term fiscal needs, recognizing that any negative consequences will be their successors’ problem to solve. 

Their fatal flaw, from a national readiness standpoint, is that they plan for the best-case scenario, when a volatile real-world never follows that scenario (see the “Quote of the Week” sidebar in this legislative update). 



While all military compensation programs are going to come under very close budget scrutiny, MOAA will focus on reminding Congress of the lessons (hopefully) learned from past ill-considered cutbacks.

Observing Memorial Day:

It goes without saying that this is a special weekend for all members of the uniformed services and veteran’s community. Memorial Day carries a particular significance for MOAA members and families when our Nation is at war. Please keep all service members, veterans, survivors, and their families in your thoughts.

If you’re traveling this weekend, please do so safely. Your family, your compatriots in uniform, and your country still need you.”

The God of Our Future

When I was a child, I was very insecure and impressed by what by what adults thought.  I was made to feel that God was looking down at me from Heaven and frowning at my sinful thoughts.  I wished so that I could be in control of my life.  That was not to be.  At age 49, my business enterprise was on the rocks and my second wife was divorcing me. I felt that my life was over.  I was forced to change. I cut from the herd and went on my own, according to everyone I knew, not the thing to do.  No one wished me well, and especially the IRS.  They took from me what was not theirs to take.  I’d nobody to blame but myself. I had the gall to tell Uncle Sam in a letter to the Attorney General that the United States was unconstitutional in its tax collection practices.  I had notions  about tax that most would have said were psychotic.  Common sense says you don’t question the income tax.  Everyone must pay his fair share of the tax burden, like it or not.  

 

Coincidentally, I departed my north Texas home on Good Friday, March 1975, and arrived in Miami on Easter Sunday for the first day of my new life.  Since I’d been self-employed, I was not government entitled to unemployment pay.  I was forced to immediately find work.  America was in a deep recession in 1975, yet on my third phone call I found work. Down the street from my one-room pad, there was a mile-long food stamp line.  Why work on jobs like I took when you were better off to collect unemployment benefits—out of my meager pay.

 

Since I was single with no deductions, a substantial part of my wages was withheld by my employer to pay Uncle Sam, who was redistributing  the revenue to certain people who were not working.  

 

I could not make ends meet with my take-home pay.  I was locked out of my room for non-payment of rent, not a good thing for entry-level workers struggling to get a foothold, and especially for this 49 year-old.  Uncle Sam does not make this fact of life for millions of workers known.  Legal but lawless, Uncle Sam cares not about making people like me homeless.   Nazi law was the same.  The good of all is all that counts.  A revolution is taking place.  People being taken by corrupt politicians are causing the world to go through a radical change.   

 

Nobody I’ve heard in American politics  seems to know what I know, whether they be advocates of, especially, the religious right, or conservative, or liberal, or independent. I’m a voice thousands are hearing and on which they  comment favorably (at www.mymiraclemessage.com ).  The truth, stranger than fiction, is something most people are terribly reluctant to hear. Most, especially liberals, prefer to live in hope. How many times have I heard from liberals, “we can hope,” or “pray for peace,” or “just give Obama a chance; he inherited Bush’s abomination?”   Rationalize till the cows come home. It doesn’t change the facts. America is going down the tube. For every rich citizen, there are a hundred poor citizens, and the poor are getting poorer, and more dependent on government. Will we never learn that government entitlement is against natural law?

 

In the second chapter of The Gospel According to St. Matthew,  The Visit of the Magi; that is, the visit the “three wise men,” Persian priests—astrologers—in those days advisors of rulers, they arrived in Jerusalem saying, “where is he that is born King of Jews?” When King Herod heard this he was troubled, and all of Jerusalem.   We read that Herod gathered the chief priests and scribes of the people, those who read the stars and advised kings.  Herod demanded of them to let him know where Jesus would be born.  They told Herod Jesus would be born in Bethlehem, that a new star had appeared over Bethlehem.   So we read, the Magi were led by the Star of Bethlehem to the Christ-child’s birthplace.

 

In the sixth chapter of Matthew, concerning prayer,  Jesus told his following, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven (heaven spelled with a small h).” Then Jesus rebuked external authority.  “That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father, which is in secret (and not in a place called Heaven), and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly. . .” Jesus, with regard to the kingdom, said, “Lay not up for yourselves treasure upon earth. . .but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven (with a small h), for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. . .”  Jesus went on to say, “No man can serve two masters.” Quite obviously, Jesus had reference to external authority, for he followed with, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God.”  Jesus clearly distinguished  heaven and earth as different than the kingdom of God.  Thus, thy kingdom come, whose will be done in earth as it is in heaven?  The kingdom of God lies in our hearts and souls.  You don’t listen and do what authority tells you to do. Jesus didn’t listen and do what the priests and scribes told him to do. Instead, Jesus turned over the moneychangers tables in the temple, the source of the priests and scribes revenue.  Why wasn’t I taught this in my Christian religion?  It wasn’t my sins that got Jesus hung from the cross.  I wasn’t “born in sin.”  I was born innocent.  What the clergy teaches about Jesus is quite different than what Jesus taught.  It’s a control thing.

 

As a Christian, I was taught that Adam and Eve were disobedient to God’s command. They were not to partake in the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.  The Serpent told Eve if she ate from said tree she would have the knowledge of the gods.  What life on earth knows not evil?  All life save humans.  God, the authority, wants us to know only good. Nice work if you can get it.  Obey authority—be animals jumping through hoops—for  authority knows what is good for us; we, the people, don’t. Yes, President Obama’s edict will bring us “collective salvation,” and put an end to Israel in the process—for the good of all.  

 

Should we blindly trust authority, religious or otherwise, give up our own lives?  Jesus made it quite clear that your pie is not in the sky but in your heart and soul.  And where does your Constitution leave authority?  “We, the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”  Those words say authority is subject to the will of the people, not its will.   So why not?

 

America was not founded on the Judeo-Christian faith. In God we trust—in the Higher Law, the background of the Constitution, in natural law, for, “We are born for justice, and right is not the mere arbitrary construction of opinion but an institution of nature.” Cicero.  “We are the law’s slaves that we may be free.”

 

Jesus taught that we are our brother’s keeper.  “We” do not yet know who we are and why we are here.  External authority, be it religious or secular, thinks it is here to help us do the best we can.  In so doing, authority robs the individual of his rights and responsibilities.  What chance do we have of being our sacred selves?

 

In 1975, I was forced to make a change.  I started over, coincidentally, on Easter Sunday, to build a new life. The world was against me.

 

In principle, government entitlement is no different that Nazi law—some entitled, some not—by the will of power.  Anything can be seen as good for all by those in control, including taking all power away, that which the Creator gave the individual.  Thomas Jefferson wrote on this in the Declaration of Independence.  “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights,” God-given rights, those in the heart and soul.   

 

Once the gate is opened and the horse is out it is hard to get him back.  Once you give a politician power over you, it is next to impossible to get it back.  Politicians are for the good of all at your individual expense.   Consequently, when I began anew to make a life, as an entry level worker, as a single with no deductions, my withholding tax deprived me of a basic existence.  That is not good for entry-level workers.  It is not good for non-workers.  It is good for authority.  Nobody else counts. We are pawns.  It gives authority control, authority with the ability to borrow against future taxpayers unlimitedly.  It is not good now or ever, butt it is being done by the people the Tea Party elected. You can’t depend on any of them.   Money goes where money flows. The rich get richer; the poor get poorer by means of government entitlement.  But, pray tell me, why would mindless, power hungy government want to rid itself of the uncontrolled growth of power?  Uncontrolled, government, like a cancer, will grow until it kills the society it governs.  History is replete with examples.

 

There is no valid reason why an individual of sound mind and body should receive a government entitlement.  It is not God’s will. It is not written in the Constitution, or even implied. All any student of the law can rightly say is that government entitlement is the law of might makes right.  At the present, government entitlement is America’s biggest bone of contention.  With more than half of the people benefitting from government entitlement, the majority vote keeps the greatest fraud of all times in place, and currently bankrupting the nation morally, spiritually, and fiscally.  

 

No one can give you the answer that will save you from a coming disaster the likes of which the world has never seen, but here’s the good news.  Jesus was here at the beginning of the Age of Pisces. Pisces people are extremely responsive to other people, the way I was before my change.  They desperately want to do the right thing, exactly the way I was. Why didn’t the people I was associated with know that?  Pisces people are easily influenced by external factors, the way I was.  It is par for the course, their symbol two attached fish swimming in opposite directions. We are now in a war that will end all wars.

 

Astrologers say that in my forties I’d be inclined to change my immature way of life.  When I was 49, I cut from the herd and went strictly on my own.  I discovered the real me.  I was reborn.  Astrologer’s Handbook says  that “individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity have as their symbol the water-bearer, who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy.”  We are at the dawn of the age when peace and good will abound.
