“progressive” Gun Control

The Second Amendment is not about hunting.  It is about the Right of the American people to prevent the 4063652269?profile=originallikes of Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Diane Feinstein, Andrew Cuomo et al from obtaining unrestrained power.

It is about the power of the people to prevent their being rounded up and put in gulags and/or concentration camps.

The American people are not demanding gun control.  NRA membership has increased by a quarter of a million in the past month.

The American people are demanding that the tyrannical government of Barack Hussein Obama and his “progressive” co-conspirators back away from their ongoing assault on the God given Rights protected by the United States Constitution.

A “progressive” government tyrannical enough to empower the Attorney General of the United States of America to put automatic weapons in the hands of Mexican drug cartels so discovering those guns at the scene of Mexican crimes would justify gun control in the United States is fully capable of the most egregious actions imaginable.  There is a high probability that the recent outbreak of mass shootings have been tactically planned and carried out as part of the long term “progressive” strategy to disarm Americans. 

Gun control advocates repeatedly ask questions like: “Why should ordinary people be allowed to own semi-automatic weapons?”  “Ordinary people” are the people referred to in the preamble of the U.S. Constitution as We the People.  We the People are not “allowed” to own semi-automatic weapons.  It is the Right of the people to keep and bear arms; a Right that “shall not be infringed.”

For a tyrannical “progressive” government, which possesses the most deadly weapons in the history of human civilization to dictate that We the People cannot own the weapons necessary to prevent that very same tyrannical “progressive” government from imposing the will of an oligarchy of self-imagined, self-appointed intellectual elites upon an opposing population is as much proof of out of control un-restrained government power any Patriotic American needs to say NO.

Not one step further.

Not the passage of one more unread bill.  Not one more day without a budget.  Not one more borrowed dollar spent on “progressive” big government socialist programs.

Stop it.  Stop it now.

You have been warned.

Baby Killers

Ann..... I watch you as much as I can, on T.V., and can't agree with your views anymore than I do.  I believe you are spot-on, when you speak "ex-cathedra!"  I am Catholic, and I call a spade, a spade.  Maybe I'm too harsh when it comes to abortions, those that perform them, and those that seek them.  The woman, that got this Roe v Wade started, a lot of years ago, did admit to lying to those in power, about her circumstances, when she was seeking an abortion.  Since this country took one liars word for changing the law, then, why didn't the law change back, so no more babies would be torn apart by the abortionist's weapons.  Those defenseless babies, surviving in their mother's wombs, are torn out of their warm, supposedly, loving environment, conceived in love, (pardon me while I vomit) until, the "mommies" decide these babies are to much of a bother, in, and out of the womb.  I understand there are those that have abortions, that are truly sorry, and go through the pangs of hell, knowing what they did, to the innocents.  But, how sorry can they be, when they turn around, an d do the same thing over again.  I read in the Washington Post, (liberal rag) this morning, a woman wrote in, and "bragged" she's had two abortions, already.  She has other children, so, she can't be bothered, with anymore.  Those that have more than one abortion, should have their genitalia sewn shut!! Never more to be opened!!

Food for thought!

You're sound asleep when you hear
a thump outside your bedroom door.
Half-awake, and nearly paralyzed with fear,
you hear muffled whispers.
At least two people have broken into your
house and are moving your way.
With your heart pumping, you reach down
beside your bed and pick up your shotgun.
You rack a shell into the chamber, then inch
toward the door and open it.
In the darkness, you make out two shadows.

One holds something that looks like a crowbar.
When the intruder brandishes it as if to strike,
you raise the shotgun and fire.
The blast knocks both thugs to the floor.
One writhes and screams while the second
man crawls to the front door and lurches outside.
As you pick up the telephone to call police,
you know you're in trouble.
In your country, most guns were outlawed years
before, and the few that are privately owned
are so stringently regulated as to make them useless.
Yours was never registered.
Police arrive and inform you
that the second burglar has died.
They arrest you for First Degree Murder
and Illegal Possession of a Firearm.
When you talk to your attorney, he tells
you not to worry: authorities will probably
plea the case down to manslaughter.
"What kind of sentence will I get?" you ask.

"Only ten-to-twelve years,"
he replies, as if that's nothing.
"Behave yourself, and you'll be out in seven."
The next day, the shooting is the lead
story in the local newspaper.
Somehow, you're portrayed as an eccentric
vigilante while the two men you shot
are represented as choirboys.
Their friends and relatives can't find
an unkind word to say about them.
Buried deep down in the article, authorities acknowledge that both "victims" have been arrested numerous times.
But the next day's headline says it all:
"Lovable Rogue Son Didn't Deserve to Die."
The thieves have been transformed from career criminals into Robin Hood-type pranksters.
As the days wear on, the story takes wings.
The national media picks it up,
then the international media.
The surviving burglar has become a folk hero.
Your attorney says the thief is preparing
to sue you, and he'll probably win.
The media publishes reports that your home has been burglarized several times in the past and that you've been critical of local police for their lack
of effort in apprehending the suspects.
After the last break-in, you told your neighbor
that you would be prepared next time.
The District Attorney uses this to allege
that you were lying in wait for the burglars.
A few months later, you go to trial.
The charges haven't been reduced,
as your lawyer had so confidently predicted.
When you take the stand, your anger at
the injustice of it all works against you.
Prosecutors paint a picture of you
as a mean, vengeful man.
It doesn't take long for the jury to convict
you of all charges.

The judge sentences you to life in prison.

This case really happened.

On August 22, 1999, Tony Martin of Emneth, Norfolk , England , killed one burglar and wounded a second.
In April, 2000, he was convicted
and is now serving a life term.
How did it become a crime to defend one's
own life in the once great British Empire ?
It started with the Pistols Act of 1903.
This seemingly reasonable law forbade selling pistols to minors or felons and established that handgun sales were to be made only to those who had a license. The Firearms Act of 1920 expanded licensing to include not only handguns but all firearms except shotguns.
Later laws passed in 1953 and 1967 outlawed the carrying of any weapon by private citizens and mandated the registration of all shotguns.

Momentum for total handgun confiscation began in earnest after the Hungerford mass shooting in 1987. Michael Ryan, a mentally disturbed man with a Kalashnikov rifle, walked down the streets shooting everyone he saw.
When the smoke cleared, 17 people were dead.

The British public, already de-sensitized by eighty years of "gun control", demanded even tougher restrictions. (The seizure of all privately owned handguns was the objective even though Ryan used a rifle.)

Nine years later, at Dunblane , Scotland , Thomas Hamilton used a semi-automatic weapon to murder 16 children and a teacher at a public school.

For many years, the media had portrayed all gun owners as mentally unstable or worse, criminals. Now the press had a real kook with which to beat up law-abiding gun owners. Day after day, week after week, the media gave up all pretense of objectivity and demanded a total ban on all handguns. The Dunblane Inquiry, a few months later, sealed the fate of the few sidearms still owned by private citizens.

During the years in which the British government incrementally took away most gun rights, the notion that a citizen had the right to armed self-defense came to be seen as vigilantism. Authorities refused to grant gun licenses to people who were threatened, claiming that self-defense was no longer considered a reason to own a gun. Citizens who shot burglars or robbers or rapists were charged while the real criminals were released.

Indeed, after the Martin shooting, a police spokesman was quoted as saying, "We cannot have people take the law into their own hands."

All of Martin's neighbors had been robbed numerous times, and several elderly people were severely injured in beatings by young thugs who had no fear of the consequences. Martin himself, a collector of antiques, had seen most of his collection trashed or stolen by burglars.

When the Dunblane Inquiry ended, citizens who owned handguns were given three months to turn them over to local authorities.
Being good British subjects, most people obeyed the law. The few who didn't were visited by police and threatened with ten-year prison sentences if they didn't comply.
Police later bragged that they'd taken nearly 200,000 handguns from private citizens.

How did the authorities know who had handguns?
The guns had been registered and licensed.
Kind of like cars Sound familiar?

Government: America's New God

4063652206?profile=originalI was around nine years old when dad took me to see the movie, “The Ten Commandments” starring Charlton Heston at the Town Theater in downtown Baltimore. It was a big deal for us because the theater had just begun admitting blacks.


Etched in my brain is the scene when Moses came down from the mountain to witness the Israelites engrossed in an orgy of self-indulgence celebrating the new god they created, a golden calf. They had abandoned God to worship a man-made false god.


I chastised fellow black Christians for worshiping a false god of skin-color, monolithic voting to give Obama a second term despite their awareness of his anti-biblical agenda. However, I have come to realize that the insidious spirit of anti-Christ emanating from the Obama Administration has spread far and wide.


All historical rules for winning and losing elections do not apply to Obama. His political bullying power and irrational status as a cult hero are unprecedented.


But here is the kicker and most scariest truth about America's zombie-like loyalty to Obama. November 6, 2012, half the country, which includes millions of Christians, chose a Democrat and media man-made “golden man” idol as their “new” Lord and Savior. Amazingly, actor and Obama disciple Jamie Foxx admitted it.


While Obama appears to be the “golden” idol and focus of worship, America's real new false god is Government, hidden inside behind Obama's well-crafted shiny gold exterior.


The Israelites surrendered the gold items (their inheritance) brought with them from Egypt to build their new golden calf idol. In like fashion, Democrats and the media convinced millions of Americans to surrender their biblical principles, freedom and liberty (their birthright) to build a golden idol of government. Many Americans have abandoned God to worship Government, a new supposed all-powerful and all-giving man-made false god. Dear Lord, help us!


The Bible warns that false prophets will arise and deceive many. (Matthew 24:4-5)


Obama is a false prophet. He persuaded millions to vote their vested interest, sacrificing biblical principles, law, freedom and liberty. I am hearing of more black Christian pastors in worship of their new god Obama/Government, coming out in favor of gay marriage. While Jesus praised investors and rebuked the coward afraid to invest in the parable of the talents, Obama has demonized investors – branding them reckless and greedy.


God's word says prosperity is achieved via hard work.“You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed, and it shall be well with you.” – Psalms 128:2


Proverbs 10: 4 “Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.”


Obama, in essence, calls God a liar by declaring that prosperity is achieved via government redistribution.


Rest assured, Democrats and the media will pull out all the stops to make Obama's second inauguration just short of the second coming – an All-Hail-to-Our-King/Messiah spectacular. I wouldn't put it pass Obama's special effects buddies in Hollywood to arrange for his entrance to feature him descending from the heavens on a cloud as Beyonce and a mass choir sings “Hosanna to Our King”.


As in the movie, “The Ten Commandments”, Obama's inauguration will be an orgy of idolatry in worship of the Left's golden man who is really fronting for their god, Government. Millions will offer up tears of admiration.


The American Left (Socialists/Progressives) are elated. Finally, there is a new god in town and it “ain't” the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob nor our Founding Fathers. Is the Left's jubilation justified? Do a majority of Americans now look to Obama/Government to supply ALL their needs, including deciding who lives and who dies (death panels buried in Obamacare), rather than the God on which our country was founded?


Unquestionably, Obama's reelection has emboldened his disciples to politically bludgeon us into submission to their Godless agenda. For example: Obama-ites are attempting to bully/punish the Pope and the Catholic Church for not embracing homosexuality.


Using typical Democrat tactics of lies and misdirection, Obama-ites claimed conservatives had a “War on Women”, while hiding their real horrific War on Babies. Planned Parenthood's annual report showed record profits and a record number of abortions, 333,964 in 2011. I wonder if the geniuses who could have cured Cancer and AIDS were among the murdered?


Taxpayers, against their will, funded PP with $542 million. Further usurping divine authority and sticking his finger in the eye of God, Obama has decreed (mandated in Obamacare) that Christians will fund abortion and contraceptive services against their faith.


My fellow Americans, we are in the midst of a cultural and spiritual war for the heart, mind and soul of America. Moses asked, “Who is on the Lord's side, let him come unto me.” I ask the same.

1.concern troll
In an argument (usually a political debate), a concern troll is someone who is on one side of the discussion, but pretends to be a supporter of the other side with "concerns". The idea behind this is that your opponents will take your arguments more seriously if they think you're an ally. Concern trolls who use fake identities are sometimes known as sockpuppets.
In the 2006 election, an aide to Congressman Charlie Bass (R-NH) was caught concern trolling the opposition on local blogs. While pretending to support Bass's opponent, Paul Hodes, the aide argued that Hodes couldn't win because Bass was an unbeatable candidate. Hodes won the election.
2.concern troll 
A person who lurks, then posts, on a site or blog, expressing concern for policies, comments, attitudes of others on the site. It is viewed as insincere, manipulative, condescending.
A concern troll commented, "You should be careful about what you write because you might get in trouble with the government." Another concern troll wrote, "This debate makes our side look disorganized."
3.concern troll 
January 27, 2011 Urban Word of the Day
A person who posts on a blog thread, in the guise of "concern," to disrupt dialogue or undermine morale by pointing out that posters and/or the site may be getting themselves in trouble, usually with an authority or power. They point out problems that don't really exist. The intent is to derail, stifle, control, the dialogue. It is viewed as insincere and condescending.
A concern troll on a progressive blog might write, "I don't think it's wise to say things like that because you might get in trouble with the government." Or, "This controversy is making your side look disorganized."
4.concern troll 
In a situation where there exists mutually exclusive positions A and B, a concern troll is someone who supports A but professes to support B around genuine supporters of B. However, they express their "concerns" about aspects of position B in order to sow doubt and uncertainty amongst genuine supporters of B.

Whilst this does genuinely happen, the term is used by some paranoid people to effectively mean "anyone who does not agree entirely with the standard dogma of position B, thus must actually covertly support position A", when said person does actually support B, just only 99%.

Thus: disagreeing *at all* with the standard dogma of B will get you branded by such people as The Enemy, and you will get generally treated with hostility and suspicion and, at worst, forcibly ejected from the B-supporter group. Result: everyone stops thinking about the issues, and discussion descends into not arriving at logical and interesting places but who can most furiously support B.
1: "All Democrats should be hanged, drawn and quartered! Grrgrrrgrrrgr!"
2: "Uh.. that's a bit excessive. I mean, I don't agree with the Democrats, but maybe we shouldn't actually, like, KILL them.."
1: "CONCERN TROLL! CLEARLY YOU ARE 100% DEMOCRAT! BEGONE, SINNER!"
(everyone flings rotten fruit at 2 until he leaves)
5.Concern troll 
Someone who raises a false question as a means of injecting a totally unsupported allegation into the public discourse. When challenged on the barely-veiled insinuation, they claim that they were "only asking a question."
A concern troll would say, "I'm not saying Congressman Smith engages in oral sex with farmyard animals, but isn't it awfully coincidental that he has a picture of a sheep in his office and always carries a handkerchief? The public has a right to know!"
6.Concern troll 
A phrase of absolutely no meaning, used by bloggers to shut down debate on their sites.
"Ignore the concern trolls."
7.Concern Troll 
A phrase used by the progressive netroots whenever someone questions the effectiveness of their activism, or notices that they are acting like fools, and discrediting their causes by incredibly silly gestures.

(Noting that facebook isn't a good vehicle for protest makes one a "concern troll.)

             THE HANDWRITTING HAS APPEARED UPON THE WALL!

I agree with your actions, and furthermore, we may be required to do more. This nonsense of President Obama taking a little used administrative tool, which was provided the Excutive Branch of Government, to enable the smooth and orderly progression of affairs; and making his own interpetation of the Executive Order purpose, that it gives him the authority to sidestep Congress; and the Constitution, can only be judged as treasonable. It is time for Congress to reign in all controls.

Just yesterday, GOD HAS SHOWN THAT THINGS ARE AT A SERIOUS JUNCTURE! And in obedience, I must make this public......... “THE HANDWRITING HAS APPEARED UPON THE WALL” January 14, 2013 This is a Rhema Word, revealed from GOD, which is a strong admonishment for you: President Barrack Obama.......... The LORD says, “The handwriting has appeared upon the wall:

                                                      'MENE'

                                                      'MENE'

                                                      'TEKEL'

                                                      'UPHARSIN '…...........and to interpret into your spoken language, this is what is written: NUMBER, NUMBER, WEIGHT, DIVISION!”

“Which means: number- God has numbered the days of your service to this nation, the United States of America, and HE IS BRINGING IT TO AN END” “Weight- you (Barrack) have been weighed in MY SCALES, and found to be missing the qualities of character that 'I DEMAND'!”

“Division- your authority is removed, and your administration is divided up, and given back to the people, (GOD's People), and realigned with GOD's Government.” And the LORD says, “Because you have rebelled against ME, your GOD, the ONLY TRUE LIVING GOD, you shall roll in your own vomit, and the people shall cheer and laugh at you. I WILL BRING DISASTER UPON you, I WILL HUMBLE ALL THOSE who are Proud; and ALL who are Arrogant and Cruel.”

Applicable scripture from the WORD of GOD ~ “Stop all your loud boasting; silence all your proud words: 'For the LORD, HE IS GOD, WHO KNOWS; and HE JUDGES all that people do'.” [ 1 Sam. 2:3] {TEV} “To honor the LORD, GOD, is to hate all evil; for I AM, GOD, WHO PROCLAIMS LOVE: I HATE Pride and Arrogance; and their evil ways; all the lies and false words!” [ Prv. 8:13] {TEV} “I WILL BRING DISASTER upon all those who mock ME; PUNISH ALL the Wicked people, for their sins. I WILL HUMBLE everyone who is arrogant.” [Isa.13:11] {TEV} The LORD SAYS, “Because you have rebelled against ME; you Barrack Obama have been very proud, and I HAVE HEARD how proud, arrogant, and conceited that you are, and how much you think of yourself. Remember the disrespect that you showed to MY Chosen Children, Israel? How you chided them, made fun, treated them with so much disdain; as though, they had been caught with a gang of robbers and you(Barrack), shamed them publicly!” [Jer. 48:29] {TEV} With fear and tremling of Our AWESOME GOD, I make this Prophetic Notice Public! In doing so, I pray that every Word of GOD, BE FOUND TRUE, and THAT ALL OF GOD's WORD comes forth to fruitition; and I also pray that all words of man or any ungodly source, be made null and void; cast down into the dirt! I ask these things in Jesus Christ Name! ~ ALL IN WITH JESUS CHRIST ~ Rev. Jerry L. Robertson

Barack Obama is blocking conservatives on Twitter   http://shar.es/48xDN

As Twitchy first reported last summer, the official twitter account of President Barack Obama seems to have a penchant for blocking conservatives.

It appears that Obama’s social media staffers have blocked at least one conservative’s account recently. Up to their old tricks again?

10 hidden taxes you didn't know you're paying

OK as this board is quite well informed many of you may know this however, for those who are interested I wanted to give you this update.

1. Medicare tax: The amount withheld by your employer from your paycheck (often under the line item "FICA," which stands for Federal Insurance Contributions Act) helps cover the cost of running the Medicare program, the federal system of health insurance for people over the age of 65. Employers pay one half of the FICA tax and employees pay the other half. The employee contribution is 6.2 percent for Social Security and 1.45 percent for Medicare on wages up to $110,100. The temporary payroll tax cut for tax years 2011 and 2012 reduced the employee portion for Social Security by 2 percent but... Whoa its back on as last pay check.

2. Self-employment tax: A Social Security and Medicare tax for individuals who work for themselves. It is similar to the Social Security and Medicare taxes withheld from the pay of most wage earners. The self-employment tax consists of two parts: 12.4 percent for Social Security and 2.9 percent for Medicare (hospital insurance) on income up to $110,100. However, the temporary payroll tax cut for tax years 2011 and 2012 reduced self-employment tax by 2 percent. You can deduct the employer-equivalent portion of your self-employment tax in figuring your adjusted gross income. This deduction only affects your income tax. It does not affect either your net earnings from self-employment or your self-employment tax.

3. Alternative minimum tax (AMT): The alternative minimum tax was created in 1969 to ensure that wealthy taxpayers pay at least some minimum amount of federal income tax, regardless of deductions, credits or exemptions. In essence, it is a flat tax with two brackets, 26 percent and 28 percent. The problem with AMT is that it now ensnares not only the wealthiest Americans, but 4 million to 5 million taxpayers with annual incomes between $200,000 and $1 million. Congress has yet to approve a new inflation "patch" that would allow millions to escape AMT (the last patch expired in December). If a new one is not enacted, the AMT will hit 31 million taxpayers this year, reaching deeply into the middle class.

The utility taxes that Americans pay can add up quickly, as do the so-called "sin taxes" on alcohol and tobacco products.

4. Electricity or natural gas tax: A tax collected by energy suppliers based on consumption during the billing period.

5. Cable tax: Tax imposed on cable television subscribers.

6. Landline phone tax: Federal and state tax associated with use of a fixed phone line.

7. Cellphone tax: Federal and state tax imposed on mobile telephone users.

8. Federal and state gasoline tax: A tax on every gallon of gasoline sold, which account for 11 percent of the cost of a gallon of gas, according to the Energy Information Administration. Federal excise taxes are 18.4 cents per gallon and state excise taxes average 23.44 cents per gallon.

9. Cigarette tax: The tax on cigarette use varies from state to state. New York City has the highest rate, charging $4.35 per package of 20 cigarettes on the state level, plus an additional local excise tax of $1.50 per package of 20 cigarettes, bringing the combined tax rate in New York City to $5.85.

10. State alcohol tax: The tax imposed on the purchase of beer, wine and spirits varies state by state. The highest rate for spirits can be found in Washington and the highest for beer is Alaska. Wyoming has the lowest rate.

Read this story and be sure to click on the link that actually has a Colonel (ret.) that is/was faculty at the War College in Fort Leavenworth KS describing THE TEA PARTY as a subversive group at war with the United States. There is no end to the tactics of the left and the demonizing of anyone who they see as a threat to their taking over this country.  Unfortunately ALL branches of the military have been taken over by career ass kissers who've spent most of their careers at the Pentagon or some other country club setting. This is obvious by their foisting outrageous political correctness on the Field and company grade officers and the enlisted people. When does the B.S. end???  This story shows the danger that's awaiting us and the arrogance of those who created this scenario.

Mullin in Boehner’s Pocket Already?

 

Newly elected Rep. Markwayne Mullin (R-Ok 2) was on KFAQ radio’s Pat Campbell Show on Tuesday Jan. 8 to “explain” his vote for John Boehner as Speaker of the House of Representatives (http://www.1170kfaq.com/podcasts/patcampbell/186021332.html). His explanation of why he voted for Boehner seems to be “business as usual” in Congress.  I thought we sent him there to oppose the business as usual mindset.  One explanation he gives is that he was told at the freshman orientation that he could only vote for someone who was nominated, and naturally Boehner was the only one nominated.  His other position is that not voting for Boehner is the same as voting for Pelosi.  That is the same lame crap we heard from the Republican establishment in the 2012 general election (not voting for Romney is voting for Obama).  It didn’t take him long to cabbage onto the establishment lingo did it?

How to Stop Progressive Tyranny COLD

th?id=H.4724361807529515&pid=1.7&w=226&h=116&c=7&rs=1 For some time now, and particularly since November 6th, I have been speculating as to what can be done to effectively counter the unrelenting Progressive onslaught on our liberties and sovereignty.
 
Sincerely believing that Progressives must, at long last, be boldly and constitutionally challenged and outmaneuvered, and thinking outside the proverbial box, I think I've come up with a plan worth pursuing. But, like any political action plan worth its salt, so much depends upon the honor, political courage and integrity of our key political players. (Sadly, that requirement could be this plan's Achilles' heel.)
 
To counter the Progressive tyranny, many States are finally getting a spine and asserting their sovereignty by actually nullifying federal edicts, laws, directives and, some day soon I hope, judicial activist rulings as well. And if rule of law is our goal, then nullification remains an indispensable tool in that effort.
 
From a historical standpoint, the sheer volume of nullification activities over the last four years exceeds anything this country has seen since before the War of Northern Agression in 1861, misleadingly dubbed the "civil war". A very hopeful trend, indeed, and a trend we should all endorse and encourage. For as Thomas Jefferson asserted, nullification is "the rightful remedy" to federal encroachment. (Note: with the fearless and dedicated efforts of the 10th Amendment Center, I suspect that acts of nullification/interposition will be on the upswing in the years ahead. And thank God for that!)
 
Of course, there's impeachment to stop the madness. However, impeachment's a fine idea ONLY if we can be assured of conviction and removal as well. Otherwise the political tumult occasioning an impeachment process will, for the most part, be of little consequence. And with the Senate firmly in the hands of the  Progressives, I suspect only blatant, incontrovertible acts of outright treason or murder by our putative Chief Executive would convince enough Senators to actually convict and remove. (In truth, however, since the ruthless Progressives have become so brazenly unprincipled, I'm not even sure murder or treason would do the trick these days.) Thus, impeachment alone cannot be relied upon to effectively remedy federal lawlessness.
 
So, here's what I propose. It's a simple, doable and powerful antidote to dangerous federal excesses. More importantly, this plan, if faithfully implemented, will eliminate the need for outright rebellion or secession, unsettling prospects which, in the absence of effective grassroots resistance and political courage at the top, have become very, very  real possibilities.
 
1. Call for Nullification: Bearing in mind that We the People and our immediate fiduciary agents, the States, creators of this union, are the ultimate arbiters of what is and what is not constitutional, when the White House or any department of the  Executive Branch issues an unconstitutional order or directive, or if the Supreme Court issues a ruling which is clearly unconstitutional, and the offending entity refuses to rescind that order, directive or ruling, the Speaker of the House and the Senate Minority Leader must urgently and publically appeal to the several States to nullify those encroachments straightaway. In effect, they must boldly circumvent federal perpetrators of lawlessness and exhort the States and the people to disobey and to apppropriately resist.
 
If the States refuse to honor and act upon those unlawful orders/rulings/directives, for all practical purposes the federal actions are of no force and the feds will have no choice but to back off in those jurisdictions where nullification has been invoked. Such resistance will also help restore the balance of power between the States and the federal government as envisioned by the Founders and enshrined in the Constitution. Further, this would place us back on the road to constitutional order and dramatically restore public trust in our representatives.
 
During these appeals, the Speaker and the Minority Ldr must studiously and clearly explain why such  resistance is necessary and constitutionally justified, explicating in vivid and  understandable detail the natural rights of man, the  principles of State sovereignty and the separation/balance of powers doctrine enshrined in our Constitution. And, of course, a concise explanation of the 10th Amendment would be in order.
 
*And if these key legislative leaders choose not to take such dramatic action, which I suspect might well be the case, then State Senators/Representatives should promptly and unhesitatingly assume this patriotic responsibility for their respective States. Seantors and Congressional members also have bully pulpits. They just need to be used.
 
2. Appeal to Sheriffs: In the same televised address to the country, and as appropriate to the nature of the federal excess, both the Speaker and the Minority Ldr, or State Senators/Representatives as may be the case, should directly exhort all Sheriffs to uphold their oath of office by refusing to comply with any and all unlawful federal orders within their jurisdiction from wherever those excesses might originate. On the otherhand, the Speaker and Minority Ldr may opt to appeal to State leaders to themselves exhort the sheriffs within their jurisdiction.
 
3. Impeachment & Withholding of Funds: In parallel, the House should immediately draw up articles of impeachment against the offending federal entity, but also withhold funding to the offending office--not merely a threat to impeach, but fullblown impeachment and removal of responsible parties. This should also include heretofore untouchable, unaccountable Supreme Court justices.
 
4. Concurrently, take the perpetrators--whomever they may be--to court.
 
This entirely lawful, assertive and principled 4-pronged approach to remedying Progressive overreach and restoring constitutional order would be both transformative and remedial. It would work. The Progressive contagion will have been stopped cold, and the authority of the People's House, that being the House of Representatives, will have been restored.
 
In the meantime, patriotic organizations around the country should continue to unite, monitor both federal and State excesses, and, in a solidly united manner, appropriately initiate and support resistance efforts wherever federal or State excesses occur.
 
For whatever good it does, I shared this proposal with the offices of both the Speaker and the Senate Minority Leader. I also copied in Sen. Lee of Utah and Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky. How much political courage and boldness in defense of liberty they possess remains to be seen.
 
As Ben Franklin warned in 1787, we have a Republic, if we can keep it. And on Nov. 6th the Republic took it on the chin big time. As Karl Marx noted, "Democracy is the road to Socialism", and Nov. 6th certainly proved his point.
 
Only political courage and  lawful, boldly fresh, credible and assertive patriotic activism at all levels can avert political and economic disaster and, yes, rebellion. The alternative is, of course, submission, accommodation and appeasement. Which course will we choose?
At long last, ACTION and PATRIOTISM must be more than words.

Walmart stops all new ammo ordering for stores

01/14/13

Today I tried to buy 22 bullets for our farm rifle at Walmart. It was explained to me that they and no other Walmart had any to buy. It was also explained that no more would be coming.

Walmart the largest retailer in the world has decided not to allow the stores to order any new ammo. All orders have been put on hold. NO NEW AMMO is coming.

I called my Washington elected and asked what was going on, they knew nothing. Are you afraid yet?

By Oscar Y. Harward

 

America has become a nation absent of law-abiding Constitutional and US Code leadership with elected and appointed individuals as they choose to obey or disobey our Constitution and/or our US Code.  It appears only a few to none in government authorities have the knowledge, ability, and courage to protect our law-abiding citizens from so many of these lawless criminal representatives and bureaucrats.  These elected officials, and selected bureaucrats’ criminality must be stopped NOW; investigated, arrested, and prosecuted, and if found guilty, sentenced to prison.  Otherwise, our nation will continue to fall even deeper.

 

What makes better to greater leaders, legislators, citizens, and/or legislation(s)?  The most important subjects must refer to ‘Social, Fiscal, and National Security’ issues; in that order.  When the ‘Social’ issues become the forerunner, the other issue concerns follow in the ‘right’ path; not necessarily so in any other order.

 

Godlike loving Constitutionalists would seek our President and other lawmakers to request SCOTUS to readdress the 1963 decision ABINGTON SCHOOL DIST. v. SCHEMPP, 374 U.S. 203 (1963); a ruling removing the Bible and its’ readings from (y)our public schools.  As our Bible teachings were removed, more knives, guns, illegal drugs, and other criminality entered; all lowering our ‘public education’ results in the USA as compared around the world.

 

Based on newer proposed laws, regulations, and other rules of the last generation or so, it is becoming apparent  that many of our elected officials and/or appointed bureaucrats are forgetting, never knew, reject, and/or do not care that our nation and our US Constitution was founded on Christian values by an overwhelming majority of Christians.

 

It would be ‘wise’ for Capitol Hill Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and others to proceed in being legally prepared to stop President Obama’s Executive Orders illegal and/or unconstitutional actions; be its unlawful overruling of the Second Amendment, exceeding the Fourteenth Amendment’s lawful national debt without Congressional authority or any other anarchy.

 

President Obama now seems to be declaring that he will not obey the Budget Control act of 2011.  That is a law.  At the same time, President Obama fails to mention that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his majority Democrat Party have failed to pass a US Government budget since April 29, 2009; nearly four years ago, and again, against the law.

 

Additionally, States, Municipalities, other local governments’, and housing communities are creating unlawful local law(s), by-laws, and/or other rules that supersede their Constitutional ‘rights and privileges’, etc.

 

Law-abiding Republicans, Democrats, Independents, other individuals, and additional groups must become uncompromising in a battle(s) against all unlawful based felonious lawbreakers; President Obama and all others.  We must exercise all effort(s) to protect our American flag, our US Constitution, our freedoms, and our nation.

 

When others ask, ‘Who should anyone want to own a weapon with a magazine that holds 40 cartridges?’ The answer is simple.  Anyone who wishes to protect himself/herself, his/her family, our Constitutional freedoms, and wishes to maintain whatever is necessary for these protection(s), and/or when any of us foresee the potential(s) who may decide to overrule our Constitutional freedoms and when these powerful, lawless, and mutinous government official(s) have weapons with a magazine that holds 40 cartridges; then you and I must demand that we, too, be allowed to positively compete in this battle with weapons for the protection of our lives, our family, and our Constitutional freedoms.

 

"It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood; if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes that no man who knows what the law is today can guess what it will be to-morrow." - James Madison, 4th US President, 1809–1817; Federalist No. 62, 1788

 

It is critical for all the ‘lawful’ to stop the criminal powerful, lawless, and mutinous individuals, groups, and governments of all unconstitutional actions as an effort to restore (y)our Constitutional ‘civility’ under the entrusted freedoms and laws of our great nation.

GUN CONTROL

An Open Letter To The Elected Class Regarding Gun Control

January 14, 2013 by Bob Livingston 

.COM

Dear ______________:

I realize it is customary to begin missives to elected representatives with the words Honorable Senator ______________ or Honorable Representative ______________, but I believe that title must be earned. Frankly, you (I am referring to you individually and to Congress as a whole) have not done so and, therefore, do not deserve to be addressed that way. However, the purpose of this letter is not to criticize you, but to inform you about what is happening in the country you were elected to serve.

According to a recent poll, Congress’ favorability ranks below lice, cockroaches, colonoscopies and root canals. Have you for a moment stopped to wonder why? It’s because a vast majority of Americans believe that Congress no longer represents them, but instead represents big corporations and, mostly, themselves and their cronies. The recent “fiscal cliff” deal is a perfect example. It socked a tax increase on 80 percent of American workers while doling out $76 billion in government money (which means my money) through special tax favors to large corporations, such as General Electric, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and DIAGEO, and to Hollywood and green energy companies. According to a recent column in The Washington Examiner, Senator Max Baucus’ (Fascist-Mont.) former staffers who are now lobbyists all got their clients millions of dollars in special benefits from the fiscal cliff deal. In return, Baucus received thousands of dollars in political contributions from those companies’ political action committees. Americans, myself included, believe this is standard operating procedure in Washington, D.C. And there is talk that additional tax increases on the middle class are on the way.

Upon your inauguration, you swore an oath, with your hand on a Bible, to uphold and defend the Constitution. You have repeatedly violated that oath by passing unConstitutional laws like the USA Patriot Act (and subsequent extensions) and the National Defense Authorization Act, which grants the President the authority to indefinitely detain American citizens and suspends habeas corpus. If I’m not mistaken, these unConstitutional laws contain provisions that in some way violate Amendments 1, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 9. That’s quite a feat for two laws.

We live in a Nation that goes far beyond anything George Orwell imagined in 1984. Our emails are read, our conversations are listened to, our cars have tracking devices and there are cameras everywhere watching our every move. Law enforcement has devices that can look through our clothes and into our cars and homes, and surveillance drones are patrolling our skies. Travelers are treated as criminals who must be strip searched or patted down before being allowed to fly — and sometimes before being allowed to board trains or buses. Many of us feel this is tyranny.

Now, in the wake of the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, there is a great hue and cry among the elected class and the mainstream media about guns and gun violence. To hear them tell it, every gun owner in America is a potential mass murderer, especially those who happen to own a sporting rifle. You and I know that is balderdash.

The anti-gun lobby loves to pull out figures and statistics that it claims show that America is the most violent place on the planet, saying that if guns were simply banned, America would be a crime-free utopia. Let me give you some real statistics. Yes, the recent shootings at Sandy Hook and Aurora, Colo., were tragic and senseless. Do you know what their common denominators are? Both occurred in so-called “gun-free zones.” That means the shooters who made conscious choices to disregard our laws were able to freely attack a group of adults who were restricted by their desire to obey our laws from defending themselves and the children in their charge. Both shooters, as is the case with the vast majority of recent mass shooters, were on prescription psychotropic drugs prior to the attacks.

According to FBI crime data from 2011, rifles (of which the misnamed “assault rifle” is a subset) were used in only 323 of 8,583 firearms murders. This is a continuation of a long-established trend in which the rifle is the least-used of all firearm weapons involved in murders. Rifle use as a murder weapon even ranks below knives, blunt objects (clubs, hammers, etc.) and hands and feet.

In other words, rifles of all types kill less than one person per day. And fewer than 100 people are killed each year by rifles with magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. According toMotherJones.com, from 1982 through 2012 sporting rifles have been employed in mass shootings 35 times. They were used only three times in 2012. In those three attacks, 52 people died. Since the Sandy Hook shooting on Dec. 14, 40 juveniles (statistically speaking) have died in shootings using a weapon other than a sporting rifle. THAT’S JUST ONE MONTH.

Meanwhile, according to Childhelp, more than five children each day — or more than 1,825 per year — are killed by parental abuse. I realize that thinking about the 20 children gunned down by a drug-addled, mentally unstable man is gut-wrenching. But since the Sandy Hook shooting, about 10 times as many children have died at the hands of their parents, and almost twice as many have been killed in juvenile gang crimes. Why don’t these seem to concern you? Could it be because the media are not interested in talking about it and it won’t get you the “face time” you desire? Why aren’t you addressing the topic of the widespread administration of psychotropic drugs and their common link to mass shootings? Is it because you stand to lose political contributions from the medical-industrial complex?

Gun grabbers love to hold Great Britain up as a model of what happens when guns are banned. Well, let’s compare U.S. and U.K. crime statistics. Britain is the most violent country in the European Union. Since the imposition of the country’s gun ban following the Dunblane school massacre in 1996, recorded violent attacks have soared by 77 percent. The violent crime rate there is 2,034 per 100,000 residents.

Contrast that with the United States, which has a violent crime rate of only 386.3 per 100,000. That’s about one-fifth the rate of violent crime in the U.K. And this has trended down since the ban on “assault weapons” ended in 2004.

In the U.K., the weapon of choice to use in a violent crime is the knife. In 2006, there was one knife crime committed in Britain for every 374 people. In the U.S. in 2006, there was one gun crime for every 750 people. In other words, a person was twice as likely to be a victim of a knife crime in the U.K. as he was a gun crime in the United States.

What about guns? The media frenzy that followed the Dunblane massacre led the British government to pass the Firearms Act of 1998, which instituted a nearly complete ban on handguns. Handgun owners were required to turn their guns over to the government, and those who sought to follow the law did so. But the Act didn’t end mass shootings. Another one occurred in 2010. However, within 10 years after the gun ban was enacted, gun crimes had almost doubled. British police are now arming themselves in response to armed gangs. Meanwhile, British citizens are helpless against attacks by criminals wielding knives, clubs, rocks, ropes, chains, axes and anything else that can be used as a weapon.

It also did not have the effect of ending gun crimes. From April 2010 through March 2011, there were 60 shooting homicides in the U.K., despite an almost complete ban on guns. And the number of annual shootings continues to increase.

What the law has done is make criminals out of law-abiding citizens, as in the case of Paul Clarke, a taxi driver who found a shotgun in his yard and turned it into the police only to be arrested for possessing it, and Iraq War veteran Danny Nightingale, who was given a Glock pistol as a gift by Iraqi forces he had trained. That gun was packed in his bags by colleagues when he left Iraq to bury two friends who were killed in action. When the gun was located, Nightingale wasforced to plead guilty to possessing it in order to avoid a five-year sentence.

Since the “assault weapons” ban in the United States ended in 2004, gun crimes in the United States have decreased. Not only that, but according to statistics by the Department of Justice, as the number of guns per 1,000 U.S. citizens has increased, the number of serious violent crimes per 1 million population has dropped.

Now to the mood of the country. Americans have been pushed and pushed until they are near the brink. Much of the blame for their anger falls on a government that is out of touch with middle America and tone deaf to its pleas. Most Americans see Congresses past and present inserting fingers into every aspect of daily life: whether it’s the amount of water that can pass through a toilet or the type of light bulb can be used or how much ethanol has to be in gasoline or how one can use his own property or what type of health insurance he must pay for. Now comes the threat that law-abiding Americans will have to surrender their guns — which Senator Dianne Feinstein’s (Communist-Calif.) proposed bill will require — and be restricted from purchasing a gun simply because it looks frightening, carries a high-capacity magazine and a bunch of pointed-headed, intellectual, overeducated elitists have decided it is not “needed” for hunting. And banning large capacity magazines is attacking a problem that is statistically insigificant.

The 2nd Amendment was included in the Bill of Rights — as were all the first 10 Amendments — to restrict what government can do. It was designed to ensure that Americans could deter or, if necessary, overthrow a tyrannical government — you know, the type of government thatRepresentative Jerrold Nadler (Communist-N.Y.) would institute because he believes, as he told a reporter recently, “that the state should have a monopoly on legitimate violence.” When the state has “a monopoly on legitimate violence,” Americans are no longer citizens; they are subjects. Americans will not become subjects.

The 2nd Amendment was not included in the Bill of Rights to ensure Americans could hunt or defend themselves against criminals, so the argument that we “don’t need” guns with “large capacity clips (sic)” — by the way, the proper word is magazines — is a non sequitur. How do I know this? Here are the words of some of our Founding Fathers:

Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people’s liberty teeth and keystone under independence … From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, and tendencies prove that to insure peace, security and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable . . . the very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference – they deserve a place of honor with all that is good — George Washington

[W]hen the resolution of enslaving America was formed in Great Britain, the British Parliament was advised by an artful man, –who was governor of Pennsylvania, to disarm the people; that it was the best and most effectual way to enslave them… —George Mason, The Virginia Ratifying Convention

Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? It is feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American . . . . [T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people.” — Tench Coxe

Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry

Despite what you and those of your ilk seem to believe, it is not the job of Congress or the President to decide what Americans “need” or for what purpose. Americans are quite capable of deciding that for themselves. Nowhere does the Constitution give you the authority to legislate weapons in any way. Nor does the President have this authority, as all laws are to come from the legislative branch, per Article 1, Section 8.

Many, if not most, Americans feel there are already ample gun laws in place. In fact, an argument can be made that many if not all current gun laws violate the Constitution — not that unConstitutional laws seem to bother you people. But I can assure you that, should a bill be passed by Congress and signed by the President that in any way approaches the one being proposed by Feinstein, there will be blood in the streets once Federal agents begin knocking on doors of gun owners to fingerprint and register them. Feinstein’s proposed bill makes many weapons non-transferable, which is the equivalent of weapons confiscation. This will be resisted, as will registration and fingerprinting of gun owners.

And you can tell the President that any executive orders that infringes on the 2nd Amendment will also be ignored and resisted. You see, your passage of laws — or executive orders or whatever you want to call them — that are unConstitutional do not make them any less unConstitutional. Nor does consent to those unConstitutional laws by the Supreme Court give them validity.

Our rights come from our Creator, not government. Therefore, government cannot take them away.

In closing, I want to urge you to consider at great length what you will be starting if, in response to a senseless criminal act, you pass additional burdensome laws on people who have no desire nor inclination to commit criminal acts with the firearms they own — laws that would not reduce gun crime or prevent future Sandy Hook-style massacres but would only add burden and expense to lawful, legitimate gun owners. Gun crimes are committed by criminals. Criminals are criminals because they choose to ignore the laws. Writing additional laws will not serve as a deterrent.

The vast majority of gun crimes are committed by gang bangers and criminals, many of whom are prohibited from possessing a gun under current laws. For the most part, they obtain their guns illegally: either on the black market or by theft. Those committing gun crimes with legitimately purchased weapons are rare outliers.

As proven in Great Britain and Australia, additional gun control laws will neither end nor deter those with criminal intent from committing criminal acts. They will serve only to put the law-abiding public in further danger. That danger will come from two places: the criminal class that will see undefended citizens as easy targets and the Federal agents who will be tasked with enforcing unConstitutional laws.

But those Federal agents tasked to register and/or confiscate weapons will be putting themselves at risk as well, and any violence that results will be on your hands. The threat of arrest or death will cause some to give up their arms peaceably. But as was the case on April 19, 1775 at Lexington and Concord when the British came to confiscate arms and weapons, there will be many patriots who rise up to resist this usurpation. I have spoken to a number of current and former members of the U.S. military who say they will be a part of that resistance group. These are people who have already shown a willingness to die in order to defend the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic.

I pray to God that you enter into any gun control negotiations prayerfully and with a full understanding of the mood of the country. You have been warned.

Respectfully submitted,

The Liberty Guard

CALL TO ACTION

 

PREPAREDNESS ALERT

 

 

The Liberty Guard Vow

I solemnly vow to support, protect and defend the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, as our Forefathers INTENDED when writing it: (TO PROTECT OUR CITIZENS LIBERTY FROM CRIMINALS, DEVIOUS AND DECEITFUL GOVERNMENTS AND OTHER ENEMIES).  

“The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down

 With the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.” Thomas Jefferson

Knowing that the Second Amendment is the LAST GUARD against slavery,

knowing that more murders occur with hand and fist than with rifle, knowing that more murders occur with a hammer and or baseball bat than with a rifle, and knowing that more assaults and rapes occur without a weapon or with a knife than with a gun, I do know that the governments assault on our second amendment is a mere precursor to reducing its citizens to total slavery,

“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined

nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants;       they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be            attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson

Our government has continuously and relentlessly pursued reducing our second amendment rights one piece at a time, from one administration to another, with the full intent of eliminating them completely. It can only lead one to believe that there is a cynister motive behind their action!

 

Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of a day. But a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers, too plainly proves a deliberate systematic plan of reducing us to slavery. – Thomas Jefferson

Since we know from history, AS OUR FOREFATHERS DID, that a standing army could be used against its citizens freedom as easily as it could be used to defend it, and since the Second Amendment is not about hunting ,but defending our liberty from internal and external enimies, we have every RIGHT to own the same armaments that our military has!

I vow to support my local Sheriff’s Department IN PROTECTING IT’S CITIZENS RIGHTS FROM UNLAWFUL ACTIONS AGAINST THEIR LIBERITIES (GUARANTEED INALIENABLY),   

Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any body of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. – Noah Webster

AND IF THE Sheriff will not fulfill his moral and contractual obligations I will stand fast in supporting, defending, and protecting my fellow citizen’s rights thru the full expression and protection of the Second Amendment.  If this means that I must give up my life to ensure that the future generations of this great nation will have the ability to experience the liberties that our forefathers intended us to have,   I WILL.   NO UNCONSTITUTIONAL, UNLAWFUL ACTIONS AGAINST ANY OF OUR RIGHTS, BUT ESPECIALLY THE SECOND AMENDMENT WILL BE ACCEPTED ON MY WATCH!!

God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it. – Daniel Webster (1834)

 Of course the “government’ may hold a Constitutional Convention in which 2/3 of our states or more can vote to rescind the second amendment and the constitution may be amended. At that point its citizens will determine whether to overthrow and replace that government, WITH ONE MORE FAVORABLE TO LIBERTY THAN THIS. Either way, WE WILL NOT GIVE UP OUR LAST GUARD AGAINST THE DEPRAVAITION OF LIBERTY and a free society.

"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion.
The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is
wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts
they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions,
it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ...
And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not
warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of
resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as
to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost
in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from
time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
It is its natural manure."  
Thomas Jefferson

Please, for the future of our posterity, never forget:

 

What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance”  Thomas Jefferson

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! -Patrick Henry to the Virginia House of Burgesses, 1775   

In matters of style, swim with the current;
In matters of principle, stand like a rock. Thomas Jefferson

Obama and Lew the Perfect Fiscal Storm

By Gregg Houlden

Every Investment Banking professional including myself look upon Lew's nomination with little less than despair. Not really for our personal wealth, as we can as easily operate from London and Singapore as NY or LA, but for the average working American. Already the effects of Obama's amateur and ideology led economic management is beginning to bite. (4th Quarter GDP Estimate Reduced to .8% from 1.5%). 

What does the Lew appointment mean to the average American? In my professional opinion, two major problems. An almost certain further downgrade by S&P and Moody's probably in Q1 13 will deliver higher interest rates. That means every Credit Card, Mortgage or Loan will become more expensive. The second point is more direct and will hit the middle class with a double whammy, the long term effects on manufacturing and large scale employers of Obama Care and increased payroll tax will be felt. I expect certain initial indicators to flag deeper problems. Already, Amex has decided to shed 5,500 jobs. I expect other Finance Houses to follow suit as they outsource to London or other destinations with more corporate friendly administrations. Manufacturing already burdened by the Unions and Obama's leftist led FMCS will once again to look to globalization to reduce costs. Don't blame the company as will the Democrats and Obama, blame academic theory meeting objective reality. 

Basic concept; If company A with US Costs can make and sell a widget for $3.30 and company B (in India or China) without Obamacare and unionized costs makes and sells the same widget for $0.50 even the most patriotic organization will go with B.  

In November, Obama lied, cheated and enabled by a barely competent MSM deceived the electorate. I will only make the 2% pay more. Well we had already globalized our portfolios Mr President. Now we see the first hike on the middle class, a payroll tax increase of around $100-200 per pay check. As Obama ramps up his spending as he only sees ideological value rather than fiscal. Basic economics say, the revenue to fulfil his grand schemes cannot come from the 2% even at 100% tax. It has to come from the 47% of working Americans. Now with a sycophant like Lew as Treasury Secretary, Obama's stupidity, lack of empathy and downright narcissism will have no voice of reason. Spend, Spend, Spend will lead to a tank in the dollar. S&P analysts will have conniption fits over the worsening debt ratio and economic indicators. I project by Q1 2014, if Obama is not stopped by the GOP House, our S&P rating will be A+. (Good is AAA BTW, as we used to be) Our bonds and debt (TBonds) will have to yield anything up to the Spain and Portugalesque 6% which will knock on to a 6 -11% jump in your personal interest payments. 

What really becomes a problem at that point is what economists call “Confidence”. When confidence fails in an economy buying ceases, investment halts and people don't trust anything. Banks fail, corporations saddled with debt and increasing labor costs close or relocate and USA Inc goes bankrupt.

Obama is a rank amateur that's too stupid and too arrogant to know his own limitations and seek competent help to mitigate the deficiency. We need our GOP leadership to change and replace Speaker Boehner with a competent and strong leader who will resist and slow the Obama disaster.  In effect save America from Obama and his foolish and childlike policies.

Is Patriotism Alone Enough?

 

th?id=H.5045097018559213&pid=1.7&w=150&h=150&c=7&rs=1Of late, there's been much more talk on conservative blogs about uniting and moving forward with more energy and effectiveness. While I am heartened by that sentiment, I am mindful that action always speaks louder than words.
 
We can do what we can to organize locally, as many of us have done, and to actively participate in the local political party machine to effect change from within, as some of us have also done, but that is simply NOT enough.
 
The major parties are powerful and influential precisely because they are well-coordinated and well-organized both locally and nationally. Thus, patriotic organizations' deliberately or unwittingly restricting themselves to localized activity and pontificating alone is inadequate.
 
 
The truth is we need to be organized both nationally AND locally. Otherwise, we will be less than credible or effective, membership and participation will continue to dissipate, and the country will further careen into oblivion.
 
 
If patriotic organizations remain splintered and parochial, we are doomed, as is our country. It's time for patriots to get very, VERY serious and much more activist. Learn from the Left.
 
 
Obviously, someone at the national level needs to lead the charge, encourage local and regional alliances, and promote the timely convening of a representative "national convention of patriots" in 2013 which would represent those local/regional alliances, this in order to fashion a genuinely national ACTION AGENDA to take back our country. Who knows, such a convening might even result in the birth of a formidable political party which will attract adherents from both the left and the right.
 
 
Among others, I would urge Allen West and/or Sarah Palin to sound the clarion call for unity and to lead the charge. I can only hope they are reading this. But, assuming they aren't, I am emailing them both straightaway.
 
 
A re-energized national Tea Party movement comprised of millions of TPers and other patriots from all over the country coalescing around one activist agenda would seriously threaten the elite establishment and would, I think, compel the GOP to either adopt our first-principles agenda going forward or face the certainty of irrelevance and impotence.
 
 
Being organized and well-coordinated on both a local and national level would most certainly stem the Progressive tide and would preclude the necessity of secession or rebellion or, worse, our subservience to the state. Splintered, however, the TP and other patriotic entities will remain a nearly useless therapeutic matrix of venting platforms. A lot of sound and fury signifying nothing.
 
Faithfully grassroots in orientation, but national in scope, patriots' clout would be greatly enhanced. Being thoroughly grassroots, we would be honoring the maxim that all politics is local. But, more importantly, our ground game alone would flip both State and DC elective offices.
 
As for a "national convention of patriots", think of such a historical convening as the 21st century equivalent of the 18th century Continental Congress in Philadelphia. Just more directly representative this time.  Tell me that didn't make a gargantuan difference in America's destiny! Let history and the basics of "community organizing", the latter which makes the Leftist radicals so powerful inspite of their vacuous and destructive agenda, be our guide.
 
No more pointificating, whining, woe-is-me, hollow TP rallies to the exclusion of a more activist  nationalist agenda. Much MUCH more is needed if we are to save what little remains of this Republic. Activism works! On the local level, let each of us begin in earnest the unifying process.
 
 
And wouldn't the NYS Tea Party Command Center be the logical place to start?  Let's make it all come together ASAP in 2013!
