Backwards Thinking

A general dissolution of principals and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.

Samuel Adams[i]

 

The sanctioned backwards display of the U.S. flag is a perfect example of the backwards thinking of our federal and State governments, as well as our laughable policy-makers in general within the United States. The sad examples of what we call leaders, do much more than support this sort of idiocy, they enthusiastically promote more of the same. But there are other examples of backwards thinking we can look at, not just the flag. Let’s look at the bills Congress passes or attempts to pass. Even a moron tries to read what he is going to sign, although he may be incapable. But Congress routinely signs bills without reading them. The Legislative and Executive Branches have created more public debt than could be paid off in a millennia, yet they continue to foolishly borrow more money from foreign nations with the sole intent of giving that same money to other foreign nations in the form of aid which will never be repaid, only to leave the U.S. taxpayer dangling on the hook with more debt to suffocate him. We allow this by giving the so-called fix to our junkie lawmakers time and time again. Another example is government refusal to police our international borders while we police the borders of foreign nations who neither pay for the service nor wish for our presence in those nations. At the same time, they encourage and we allow overzealous policing of ourselves by an overly militarized police force right here in the United States. Then there is the hypocrisy of government when they speak of the evils of China and Russia (or the former Soviet Union if you will), only to turn around and gladly incarcerate more U.S. citizens than either China or Russia incarcerate, and at a staggering cost. But remember, we are the ‘land of the free.’

So what do We the People do? We enable these forked-tongued prevaricators by giving them whatever they desire, rather than disabling them so they have to slither on their bellies like the snakes which they actually are. This is the backwards thinking of our government officials at every level and these are just some of the tools which they are using to happily bury us with what appears to be our consent.

If you look at the U.S. flag code Section 175 (i), which deals with the position and manner of display of the flag. It states, “When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a wall, the union should be uppermost and to the flag’s own right, that is, to the observers left[ii].” Just so you are not confused by this, it is quite simple. The canton or union, which is blue and holds the stars, always, goes in the upper left hand corner as the crowd is looking at it. So if you hang the flag from your porch, while you look out of your own window and see the canton in the upper right corner, to the people who pass by and see the flag, the canton is in the upper left hand corner. Now we get to my problem. The backwards display of the flag on military uniforms as ordered by the federal government. While the U.S. Army claims this ‘backwards’ display has always been the case (at least for the Army), so the soldiers appear to be advancing and not retreating is really nothing more than a misleading argument. In no way is it possible for a patch of the U.S. flag on the shoulder of a uniform capable of giving anyone the appearance of retreating. I looked at hundreds if not thousands of photos of troops who fought in WWII through the Viet Nam War; I could not find one photo of the patch which was displayed in that fashion. If there was a patch, the canton was always in the upper left corner, I don’t care on what sleeve the patch was on. If you look at old photos of U.S. military aircraft, if there was a flag on the starboard side of the aircraft, the canton was in the upper left hand corner. I asked a friend of mine who is a retired U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sergeant if I was right or wrong, he agreed with me. He stated, with a disturbed look on his face, “The canton always goes in the upper left corner, but in the upper right…that was never the case.” The canton always was in the upper left hand corner, until maybe 2002-2003 when some mental midget in the government thought it would be a good idea. I know people think this is a good idea, I personally think it is disgraceful, wrong and it makes me sick. Let’s move on, because the government and at least some of the people seem to have what they want, something backwards.

 

A good government implies two things; first, fidelity to the objects of the government; secondly, a knowledge of the means, by which those objects can best be attained.

Joseph Story[iii]

 

Since the Republican National Convention just happened in Tampa Florida and the Democratic National Convention is happening right now in Charlotte North Carolina, these are good examples. According to an article, “Congress set aside $50 million for security at each of the party conventions for 2012, for a total of $100 million. The total cost to taxpayers of the two national party conventions in 2012 exceeded $136 million[iv].” Here in Tampa, it was like some sort of police state. I personally have never asked the government to protect me in this manner. There were barricades impeding pedestrians and vehicles, cops in gangs roaming about. In fact you couldn’t walk 100 ft. without encountering a bunch of them. Did they bother people? No, but that isn’t the point. If I wanted to live in the Middle East, that’s where I would go. So are we to actually believe, our so-called leaders need this type of security? If they do, then they are obviously doing something wrong. I cannot believe the security was to protect them against al Qaeda, because we know it was to protect them from Americans. What would possibly make U.S. politicians feel as though they need that type of security to protect themselves from U.S. citizens? If the massive security was to protect property from protesters, then it also seems like overkill. People do have the right to protest, whether I agree with them or not. But to assume they will be a violent mob in some way violates the 1st Amendment; the right to the people to peaceably assemble. Where does it say peaceably assemble under threat of an overly militarized police force? Or in the 5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution; nor be deprived of…liberty…without due process of law. Barricades and an excessive police presence do in fact deprive us of our liberty. But once again I will state, in no way did the police act in a Nazi-like fashion. However, I still have a problem with the apparent lack of trust by our elected government officials who feel this type of security is needed with regard to U.S. citizens.

An example of our leaders not paying attention is the Read the Bills Act of 2011 (RTBA). Why would there need to be such an Act if our legislators actually read what they were signing? According to Downsize DC, “Ignorance of the law is no excuse for citizens. Neither should it be for Congress[v].” The report goes on to state, “Any member of Congress wishing to cast an affirmative vote for more spending, greater regulation, or the creation or retention of a program of bureaucracy, must sign an affidavit swearing that he or she has either…read the entire bill or heard the entire bill read.” Can you actually imagine our geniuses in Congress passing legislation without reading the bill first? Keep in mind, this isn’t like reading a thousand page novel, this is difficult stuff and takes time, effort and thought. We know there is absolutely no way they can read and understand something that large or complex in a short period of time. Maybe if the plumbing wasn’t so difficult, it wouldn’t be so easy to stop up the drain. Bills should be simplified and they should stick to the proposed idea or intent of the bill and not have phony pork-laden trailers added ad nauseam. So the easy answer to what has been happening is, Congress is and has been passing bills without reading them. I believe this is criminal behavior. Why you ask? Simple, fraud is a crime in the United States. To enact a law which affects us all without knowing what is actually in the law is fraudulent. The devil is always in the details and lawmakers should know that. US News reported, “Steny Hoyer, the No. 2 Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives…all but admitted that few if any members of Congress will read the healthcare reform bill before voting for it[vi].” Representative Hoyer further stated, “If every member pledged not to vote for it if they hadn’t read it in its entirety, I think we would have very few votes.” That would actually be a good thing. But be that as it may, it certainly is nice to know our elected leaders don’t find it important enough to take the time to read, digest and discuss the bills which have a huge impact on American citizens. Someone should really slip in something that states these fools will accept a 95% pay cut, but you can bet they would read that part of any bill.

 

An unlimited power to tax involves, necessarily, a power to destroy; because there is a limit beyond which no institution and no property can bear taxation.

John Marshall[vii]

 

A perfect example of us borrowing money just so we can give it back to the same nation would be China. House “Republicans and Democrats bashed the programs during a hearing before the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s Asia and Pacific panel, calling them a “giant mistake of thinking” by the State Department and “an insult” to taxpayers in America[viii].” For once I can actually applaud the words of some politicians. But, even though Congress controls the purse-strings, they still allow this to happen. So once again the State Department and their misguided foreign policy agenda strikes and our impotent House members can only be ‘insulted.’ According to the Daily Mail in the UK, “The U.S. is providing hundreds of millions of dollars of foreign aid to some of the world’s richest countries – while at the same time borrowing billions back[ix].” Articles like this one make it very difficult to think that U.S. lawmakers aren’t slightly ‘special’ when it comes to intelligence. The report went on to name some of the countries receiving the aid in 2010, “China…$27.2m, India $126.6m, Brazil $25m, and Russia $71.5m. Mexico also received $316.7m and Egypt $255.7m.” This is why we pay so much money in taxes. The government throws our money around the globe like the Secret Service does while on duty in a Columbian brothel. How and why we allow this to continue is beyond me, but it is quite easy to see why our public debt as of 4 September 2012 is a whopping $16,009,448,000,594.65[x]. Remember how Thomas Jefferson described public debt, as “A departure of principle” which reduces us to “Mere automations of misery, to have no sensibilities left but for sinning and suffering…The fore horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression[xi].” Thomas Jefferson was not wrong.

According to Vet Friends, “No military in the history of the world has been more widely deployed as the United States. Currently, the United States has military personnel deployed in about 150 countries…This covers 75% of The World’s Nations[xii].” In a Tampa Bay Times report, Ron Paul states, “We’re in 130 countries. We have 900 bases around the world. We’re going broke[xiii].” Even if we split the difference between 150 and 130 nations, that’s still 140 nations out of roughly 196 nations (that number changes depending  on who is calculating the number). Still, if we had those troops in the United States, securing our borders instead of everyone else’s borders, do you think it would cost so much? Plus, the United States and our borders would be better protected and at a much lower cost to the taxpayer. Does South Korea really need us there to secure the DMZ? I’ll bet if we left and told them what they do is their business, the ROK would stomp on North Korea in no time. How about Europe? Maybe Europeans nations should guard their own borders, I like Europe, but if they can’t handle their own security, maybe they should be called something else. Either way, that wouldn’t be my concern, it would be theirs. My concern as should be the concern of all Americans is the United States of America, not every other nation on the planet. Read the preamble to the U.S. Constitution. To ‘provide for the common defence… to ourselves and to our Posterity’ is for the United States, not Korea, Germany, or any other nation. I don’t believe in the U.S. being the policemen of the world and if we are going to be that, then I believe people of other nations should be paying us handsomely for the service.

Let’s take a moment to talk about prison populations around the globe. While we all know for a fact we are the land of the free, which might not actually be true when you stop to consider we have more people in prison than any other nation on this planet. According to Nation Master[xiv], we have 715 people out of 100K people in prison, while Russia has 584 per 100K and China has 119 out of 100K. If you take these numbers, you come up with about 2.5m incarcerated in the U.S. to China’s 7.14m. If Nation Master’s figures are correct, and if you figure China has 6 billion people and we have 350 million, then we still incarcerate the most per capita. Stop and consider the fact that China has a population over 17 times greater than the United States, but we have a third as many people incarcerated. However, in a 2006 report by Natural News, “The United States has 5 percent of the world’s population and 25 percent of the world’s incarcerated population.” The report goes on to state, “A report released by the justice department…a record 7 million people -- were incarcerated, on probation or on parole at the end of 2005, with 2.2 million of them in prison or jail[xv].” So how ever you do the math, the United States has far more people incarcerated than any other nation per population. Then there is “China ranking second with 1.5 million prisoners, and Russia sitting in third with 870,000.” A CBS News report about the U.S. prisons or ‘Incarceration Nation’ stated, “A report by the organization, “The Price of Prisons,” states that the cost of incarcerating one inmate in Fiscal 2010 was $31,307 per year. In states like Connecticut, Washington state, New York, it’s anywhere from $50,000 to $60,000[xvi].” It seems fairly obvious there has been a push in the United States to incarcerate as many people as possible in order to sustain what I believe is an institution which has no intention of ever getting smaller. Prisons are now being built and operated by private companies, not that it wasn’t bad enough to have the government doing this to their own people, now it is for-profit prisons and we all know they are only going to get bigger. “Is it fair to call the United States “incarceration nation”?” Fairness has nothing to do with what is happening in the United States to the people through petty laws meant to strip us of our freedoms and keep us locked up in prisons so a profit can be turned.

 

Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect every one who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined.

Patrick Henry[xvii]

 

We should all remember how the founding fathers of this nation wanted limited federal government. While the people within each sovereign State can easily make up the laws as they see fit, nobody needs to go there if those laws are too draconian. But when the federal government gets it claws into you, there is little chance you will ever break free. While you may or may not like my analogy of the backwards flag, keep in mind our so-called leaders are backwards, and they prove it time and time again. Why else would they pay $100 million for security for 2 weeks of political conventions, when we know they are trying to protect themselves from us, not to protect the cities from a foreign attack. Why would they sign bills without reading them? Those bills impact us greatly. Why would they borrow money from foreign nations only to give it back to foreign nations, while we suffocate under a $16 trillion plus public debt? Why would we have our troops in 75% of the nations of the world, while we are policed by an overly militarized police force right here at home? Are we that much of a threat? Yet our borders protections are much like a malfunctioning sieve, allowing practically anyone or anything to pass. I guess in the end that is why we have 5% of the world’s population and 25% of the world’s prison population. It’s nice to know the U.S. government has such affection for its people. Perhaps we should show our government the same kind of affection. I realize they don’t think the laws apply to them, but they do.

 

God Bless this Great Republic, the United States of America.

Ship of State? No, Ship of Fools....

I have to literally force myself to watch the Democratic convention. It actually turns my stomach to see so many so-called Americans so ready and WILLING to sell this great nation out. I cannot, in any state or degree of dementia, bring myself to agree with anything they stand for. Their platform writhes and transforms daily to fit the immediate needs of the party. They delete references to Israel and then the next day they put them back in. They support this or that position and then 12 hours later they take a completly different tack and change course. How can any "thinking" person decide it is in our best interests to let these people run the government? The Democrats are the party of indecision and deceit. They circumvent the Constitution and other tenents of law to get whatever they want. I am at a loss to discern how so many lawyers can be so ignorant of the founding documents. It must be willful. No one could be that stupid by accident. Enough for now. I have much to study and articles to write. I think I need to address the notion that we are all "owned" by the government. That one floored me when I heard it. Later, my fellow patriots

It is now official.  Democrats will move rock star Barrack Obama's big presidential nomination acceptance speech indoors.   Instead of performing before a crowd of 74,000 in an outdoor stadium, the show will now 4063574237?profile=originalbe put on in a much, much smaller indoor arena.

The “official” line, the cover story if you will, is that there are concerns about rain.  But convention sources disclosed that the real reasons for the switch were fears that many of the seats in the 74,000-seater Bank of America stadium would be empty.

The Time Warner arena holds about 20,000 people.  In rock star terms, reducing seating capacity from 74,000 to 20,000 is a significant downgrade.  It sounds like the Rolling Stones being forced to move a concert from the Rose Bowl to the Staples Center due to lagging ticket sales.

It illustrates how the biggesst rock star of the “progressive” Democratic Party is less like the Rolling Stones and more like Spinal Tap.

4063573834?profile=originalIn 2008, when Obamamania was at a fever pitch, filling 84,000-seater Invesco Field in Denver, Colorado was child’s play. But waning voter enthusiasm has led to an embarrassing reduction in drawing power.   So far this year, Obama’s biggest crowd has been 14,000 in Columbus, Ohio.  Last week at a rally in Boulder, Colorado, 13,000 were in attendance.

Gone are the swooning fans, fainting on cue.  Missing are calls to bring his concert tour to major European cities.  The days when Barrack Obama was the biggest rock star on the planet have come and gone.  People are no longer throwing money in his direction.  The days of performing “Tonight I'm Gonna Rock You Tonight” are over.  Now he desperately sings “Gimme Some Money.”

"Barbie Obama's" Fairytale

4063574178?profile=original

Then and now, how four years can change the Barack and Michelle Obama rhetoric – it’s like Ken & Barbie Obama had a Mattel makeover right in front of our eyes.  The speech last night by Michelle Obama was polished and unless one knew the truth it would be easy to fall into the same dismal political Obama pit of 2008. 

 

Michelle Obama has moved into the clutches of the Obama Administration and Liberal News Media and is now but a victim of the times. The story told last night by Michelle Obama at the DNC Convention was nothing more than a fairytale Cinderella story that was devoid and empty of truth – a story concocted to prey on the emotions of the poor, women, the African American Community and the Hispanics. 

 

Michelle set the scene describing Obama’s youth describing him as a poor boy without a penny to his name driving an old rusty worn out car and wearing shoes a size too small.  She spins a story about an unknown, knowing full well that none of us have seen his student loans and most of us believe he had a free educational ride here as a foreign student.

 

In fact, none of us know who this person that some call President Obama really is – the little bit we do know isn’t exactly the kind of information that would make us believe he is or was qualified to lead our Country. His past 3 ½ years confirms that suspicion.

 

The fact is last night’s speech by Michelle Obama was just a rerun of Obama’s 2008 speeches. She painted a false image of the man she calls her husband – it’s hard to believe that Democrats actually think most Americans will buy the regurgitated “hope and change.”

 

The changes in 3 ½ years are the most devastatingly changes of our lifetime. Our hard earned money, retirement and our hope was crushed by Obama. He stole our stimulus money for his friends, special interest groups, Unions and corrupt lending institutions. He increased our National Debt over 5 trillion dollars – he squandered our monies on his personal sacred cows.

 

So when Michelle says he’s a caring person fighting for his Country I beg to differ with her.  He is a dictator striving to promote a new world order and destroy the greatest Nation in the World.

 

When Michelle mentions women and how Obama is fighting for them – that’s an outright lie or fabrication. During his term as President he has actively under a guise campaigned against women, all women and not one thing outside of securing a few condoms, promise of sex changes and some free healthcare that we’re all paying for can be attributed to Obama. Women are losing jobs daily, they have been relegated to the ancient history shelf with the promise that “big Daddy Government” will care for them.

 

She briefly mentioned education for our youth – the fact is our college graduates are living in their parents’ garages or basements. No jobs and no hope of jobs!

 

What Michelle didn’t mention which confirms the shallow platform of the Democrats is: (1)  high unemployment, (2) National Deficit over 16 trillion, (3) Businesses big and small closing their doors or moving out of our Country and (4) The fact we’re not better off then we were four years ago. 

 

Democrats have controlled the Government since 2006.  They have refused to even try to balance our budget. They are addicted to spending much more than we take in and their platform is nothing but a bunch of “hope and change” rhetoric without solutions, without substantial realistic plans to restore our weakened Nation.

 

As Ronald Reagan said "Government is not the solution to our problem. Government is the problem."

 

May God Bless America

As Always.

QUOTE from GOD's WORD: " A nation without GOD's guidance is a nation without order. Happy are those who keep GOD's Law." [Pr. 29:18] Today's English Version

THE DEMOCRATS HAVE STEPPED OVER THE LINE THIS TIME ~
the HAVE DROPPED 'GOD' FROM THEIR PARTY PLATFORM!

“We need a government that stands up for the hopes, values, and interests of working people, and gives everyone willing to work hard the chance to make the most of their God-given potential.”

Now the words “God-given” have been removed. The paragraph has been restructured to say this:

We gather to reclaim the basic bargain that built the largest middle class and the most prosperous nation on Earth – the simple principle that in America, hard work should pay off, responsibility should be rewarded, and each one of us should be able to go as far as our talent and drive take us.”

THE WORD OF GOD says,: " When evil people are in 'power', that crime will increase, and every despicable work of satan; but the righteous will live to see such people fall." [Pr. 29:16] TEV

QUOTE from GOD's WORD: " A nation without GOD's guidance is a nation without order. Happy are those who keep GOD's Law." [Pr. 29:18] Today's English Version

THE WORD of GOD says: "His arrogance will bring the devastating downfall ; but you that remain faithful, and stay humble in righteous-ness will be respected!"[Pr.29:23] TEV

THE WORD of GOD says: " If one wishes to stay out of trouble, be careful what you say. Show me a conceited person<Scoffer is his name>and GOD Says: I Will Show you someone who is Arrogant, Proud, and totally Inconsiderate." [Pr. 21:23-24]

Speaking as a 'Prophet of GOD'~ I KNOW THAT THERE IS STILL A REMNANT IN THE USA~ as I have been declaring since 1985, "IT IS TIME FOR ALL, to humble themselves, and PRAY that GOD WILL FORGIVE US, AND FORGIVE THIS NATION, that WE HAVE ALLOWED TO BE OVERRUN BY SIN! And 'WE THE PEOPLE' know that GOD WILL HEAR OUR PRAYERS of REPENTANCE, and HEAL THE UNITED STATE of AMERICA" [2 Chr. 7:14] Today's English Version

how to assure the distruction of any nation

When a nation embarks down the path to socialism and gives the fruits of the labors of productive members of the society to non-productive members of that society it will not be more than 1 generation until that nation will bankrupt itself !

It can be done even quicker if that nation also desires to spend massive funds on military expenditures and infrastructure as well as providing social welfare for all.

The USA now faces this fact but the democrats are blind to the coming storm

I do suspect that we will see a massive social upheavle and soo.

Spain’s Present is Obama America’s Future

Although Spain is not as bad off as Greece, a look at Spain’s current economic reality reveals the future of 4063573816?profile=originalAmerica under four more years of Barrack Obama.

Despite European commitments to inject up to 100 billion euros into Spain’s faltering banking system, bank withdrawals have accelerated.  During July, doubts about Spain’s financial system caused Spaniards to withdraw a record $94 billion from their banks.   That amounts to 7 percent of Spain’s total domestic economic output.

Capital flight is beginning to include educated entrepreneurs who are fed up with scant job opportunities in a country with a 25 percent unemployment rate.  Statistics show that in a twelve month span 30,000 Spaniards have registered to work in Britain, an increase of 25 percent over 2011 levels.

Since taking office in 2009, Obama has aggressively promoted a “green energy” agenda modeled after the one pursued by Spain.  The assumption that pursuing the same agenda will bring about different results is 4063573834?profile=originalbased on no known empirical data.

If American voters are willing to accept 25 percent unemployment as the new normal and can live with a combination of major investment capital flight and disappearing employment opportunities, then Obama’s re-election is a foregone conclusion.

However, if Americans prefer to see a resurgence of American economic might through development of its domestic energy resources, and the millions of jobs that activity will create, then Obama’s days in the White House are numbered.

When a population moves, metaphorically, in a certain direction it is usually guided or influenced by current national circumstances, by political leaders who feed the masses with what they believe are policies that will ensure their re-election.

In times of self induced debt and economic decline, a nostalgic belief in a socialized system for the equalization of wealth becomes a mantra for those who support government bred entitlements. As we have often stated in these columns, entitlements become part of the DNA or genetic make-up of the recipients. Thus, politicians whose main goal is the perpetuation of their incumbency, will feed these wants and desires at the expense of the national State.

As the State runs out of money and attempts proper fiscal management, the disruption to the flow of entitlements leaves it open to protests and even riots as in the case of Greece. The Greeks are unhappy with the fact they are unable to continue to enjoy the fruits of European membership without cutting some of the overly generous benefits their politicians have been able to bestow. The Germans on the other hand who have the power to rescue them, feel why should they have to work until they are 67 and receive 47% of their last salary, and the Greeks work until they are 54 and get 94% of their last salary?

It is certainly incredible that the old adage, “those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it”, is perfectly apt when looking at socialism, its various forms, and its multiple failures. It does appear that government in the USA is headed toward a form of socialism that the population could easily accept, given the proper spin by its advocates. The spin, as with all socialist ideology, is aimed at the working class, the less fortunate in society, and the well intentioned but easily spun liberal. Finally, independent thinkers who are unable to disentangle the disingenuous, the misalignment of statistics, or the outright distortions of the presenter, become susceptible to amnesia of the history of socialism. Thus, we ignore history and embrace what has gone before even though the result will be a foregone conclusion.

To accept socialism is to desire self-flagellation, to accept punishment by accepting government control in many facets of life is to cede one’s freedom to authoritarian rule. One of the most ridiculous statements I ever heard came from a liberal leaning US tourist I was talking to on a visit to Mexico. I happened to mention that I felt sorry for the plight of the poor people in the market place. My friend said, “Oh, they are very happy!” I thought to myself, put yourself in their shoes. You might be happy, but would you be content? Therein lies the difference between those who keep the poor in their place, and those of us who want to raise them up with capitalistic opportunity. If you are poor you want freedom to rise above your station. Only capitalism can provide this opportunity. Ask any Cuban!

“Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order … tomorrow they will be grateful.” -Attributed to Henry Kissinger during the 1991 Bilderberg meeting

For those who’ve been wondering how the domestic gun grabbers or the United Nations think they’re going to get away with gun control here at home, one need look no further than Article 15 of the UN’s Arms Trade Treaty.

 

Many American troops are patriots who understand their oaths to uphold the Constitution, so they can’t be counted upon to confiscate guns. But foreign troops are another story.

Article 15 of the UN Arms Trade Treaty, if ratified, provides for foreign “assistance to implement the Treaty,” and mandates that nations who can provide requested support must do so if requested by member nations. That includes legal, financial, technical as well as “material” assistance to enforce a treaty that declares “recreational, cultural, historical and sporting activities” to be the “exclusively” recognized reasons for lawful private ownership, and which further recognizes the “inherent rights” of the State (i.e. nations under the treaty) to self-defense, but makes no mention of the rights of the individual.

Read the language of Article 15 for yourself:

 

Article 15 International Assistance In fulfilling the obligation of this Treaty, States Parties may seek, inter alia, legal assistance, legislative assistance, technical assistance, institutional capacity building, material assistance or financial assistance. States, in a position to do so, shall provide such assistance. States Parties may contribute resources to a voluntary trust fund to assist requesting States Parties requiring such assistance to implement the Treaty. States Parties shall afford one another the widest measure of assistance, consistent with their respective legal and administrative systems, in investigations, prosecutions and judicial proceedings in relation to the violations of the national measures implemented to comply with obligations under of the provisions of this Treaty. Each State Party may offer or receive assistance, inter alia, through the United Nations international, regional, subregional or national organizations, non-governmental organizations or on a bi-lateral basis. Such assistance may include technical, financial, material and other forms of assistance as needed, upon request.

Will foreign troops be going door-to-door to ensure compliance with new gun registry policies, imposed limits on ammunition and magazines, or in enforcing outright confiscation? Joint training exercises conducted between U.S. armed forces and various foreign armies have trained to do just that.

In 2010, the Infowars crew covered Operation Vigilant Guard, a joint training exercise in Chicago, in which U.S. troops drilled with Eastern bloc troops to partner in stopping terrorism, dealing with meth dealers and WMDs, as well as in gun confiscation. Countless other exercises have taken place on U.S. soil involving similar joint operations for a martial law occupation with the participation of foreign troops:

 

 

Foreign Troops Training To Confiscate Guns of Americans

American troops were ordered to conduct door-to-door gun confiscation sweeps after Hurricane Katrina, and while it has emerged that at least one unit stood down and refused the order, many more carried out the unconstitutional mission. That precedent has been followed by other exercises training American soldiers for gun seizures, along with other martial law measures.

Infowars Nightly News co-host Rob Dew underscored the history of training to take American guns in his recent viral report:

Troops Ordered To Kill All Americans Who Do Not Turn In Guns

Meanwhile, the United Nations itself has forcibly disarmed numerous African nations using foreign troops, and the vacuum of power has led in several cases to genocidal atrocities as a direct result of taking away arms. The genocide in Rwanda was enabled by forcible disarmament. As Republic Magazine writes, the mass murder was “carried out by government-aligned Hutu tribal militias against a targeted ethnic population – the Tutsis – who had been disarmed with the help of UN “peacekeeping” forces under the supervision of future UN Secretary General Kofi Annan.” The Darfur crisis in Sudan also has its roots in UN-led population disarmament, as does the Burma (Myanmar) massacre, again the result of disarmament. Armed troops representing international interests including the World Bank burned down homes and killed children in effort to forcibly evict some 40,000 Ugandans on the basis of conserving lands to combat climate change.

Indeed, genocide and disarmed populations go hand-in-hand through history– just look at the history of Democide (death by government). R.J. Rummel at the University of Hawaii is the leading academic on the subject, and has estimated that more than 262 million unnatural deaths in the 20th Century alone were caused by government, and most were at the hands of despots preying upon their helpless peoples. From Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia, to Turkey, Armenia and beyond, gun bans have created a shift in the balance of power towards the state, creating an atmosphere of victim disarmament.

Blue helmets or foreign uniforms have no place on foreign soil, yet the UN Arms Trade Treaty text reveals a mechanism to impose just that type of control– even in America.

The Obama Deception

As we move closer to election day, here is a video that if you haven't seen it, you should. It offers an oportunity to help in formulating an informed perspective on what is currently transpiring in our country. I believe we are at a crossroads which requires every concerned American to be as informed as possible and that this election is of particular significance to the future welfare of the United States of America.

 

So, after supper, make yourself a cup of tea, have a seat and prepare to find out how President Obama was put in place to advance the globalist agenda. You are going to be barraged with information you may not have been aware of that  the controlled media has worked very hard to make sure you never see, so make sure you choose a time when you won't be interrupted. It is a little under two hours.

Those who support a "FLAT TAX"

What is a flat tax ?

A flat tax is still a tax on labor which is no different than partial slavery !

The problem today is most folks do not understand our economic system and they seem to think that taxes

are collected to pay the bills of the Government in Washington. [WRONG} 

So what is the taxes on income designed to do?

Control the currency supply to control inflation at the desired rates 

So how does the Federal government pay the bills ?

By borrowing currency into circulation from the fed and the interest on the currency borrowed is the rent for use of the currency

Most Americans are clueless as to how the system works and they are kept in the dark because if they understood how the bankers have defrauded the citizens of the USA they might revolt and hang the bankers from the closest lamp post.

Want a brief on how it works ?

Judicial Activism - Re Dux

I am heartened by the responses my tirade triggered. While I am happy to see so many teed off Texans, I must ask myself (and them) "OK, so you're Pi--ed! What do you intend to DO about it?" Talk is cheap. How many Texans are willing to go to Austin and hold the representatives and senators feet to the fire? How many will "occupy" the offices of the Secretary of State and the Attorneys General? One? Two? A dozen?

 

Folks, it is way past time for talk and rhetoric. It is a given that most Texans are ready for another San Jacinto or Alamo. The ONLY way to get a politician to do anything is to get in his or her face. Unless you threaten their power and prestige you are not even noticed. Confront them face to face (with the media if possible) and you get their undivided attention. Politicians and bureaucrats like the media, but only when they control the terms of exposure. Sound bites and slogans are the stuff of politics. In-depth coverage of a mass protest is a horse of a different color. Put 100,000 angry voters on the lawn of the capitol and see what happens. The guv can't call out the guard as they are mostly serving and dying in Afghanistan and Iraq (another blog for later). Let them know that their cushy jobs depend on them standing tall and defending the people and their values. Learn about interposition and nullification. Don't just toss around words to appear knowledgeable. Learn what they mean so you can argue from a position of knowledge and understanding. Start blogs. Read, watch and listen to the news. Most of it is revolting and makes you angry. Good! At least you have the ammo to form a learned opinion.

 

And finally, GET INVOLVED! I don't mean just arguing with the people at work. I mean writing, faxing and e-mailing your government at every chance. So what if they brand you a troublemaker? At least they are aware of you and your opinions. Sit silent and you don't exist. And write endless letters to the editors of your local newspapers. If only one article in a hundred actually gets published, it will get others to thinking. Start the revolution. Be a leader. There are planty of sheep ... we need RAMS with big ... uh ..... horns.

From the book: America Under Fire - 3 things America must do to rebuild its foundation.

1) Learn how to fight a guerrilla war

2) An economic solution that no one thought of

3) The other side of racism (It's embarrassing being white and it's not alright to be lily white).

 

Barrack Obama, should not be allowed to run for reelection in 2012, on grounds of racism.

 

This is something which was disgracefully missed in the 2008 election.  There is another side to racism, ladies and gentlemen, and people in America, especially white people, seem to be completely unaware of it.

 

I believe "that millions and millions and millions and millions of white people voted for Barrack Obama because his skin is half black.  Barrack Obama was elected because he got the white vote not because he got the black vote or any other vote.  The only mention of this I heard on the news was by the black news commentator, Juan Williams, on fox news.  He said this one night on the Bill O'rielly show, "Barrack Obama is going to be the next president of the United States because his skin is black".  I couldn't believe it.  Bill O'Rielly who calls his show the "no spin zone" completely spun out of it that night.  He just stated talking about something else as if Juan Williams hadn't said anything.  Now I think that Bill O'Rielly is one of the best newsmen on TV, and I was shocked that he didn't understand the importance of what Juan said, or just felt to uncomfortable to speak about the subject.  Millions and millions and millions and millions of white people voted for Barrack Obama, because his skin is half black.  How do I know this?  Because before I went into the Marine Corp and the brothers taught me different, I would have voted for Obama.  I would have felt (I don't know the right word) compelled, obligated, obessed, etc., etc. to put Obama in the white house because his skin is half black, feeling I was waving my freedom flag high for all black people to see.  Come on, white people, how many of you voted for him for this reason?  Come on: admit it.  Just look at the stupid behavor of Europeans before the election.  When Obama visited Europe before the election millions and millions of white people showed up to show there undying support for a black man running for the presidency.  Let's face it, and finnially admit to ourselves, that if Obama's skin was all white instead of half white, less then one quarter of these people would have showed up.  That's a double standard or racism, ladies and gentlemen,the other side of racism, the side that white don't see and don't want to see.  Face it, ladies and gentlemen, that's a double standard, and if white people don't get rid of this double standard, racism will never go away in this country.  Do you realize that Barrack Obama got 95% of the black vote during the election?  By the way, I only heard this reported on fox news; maybe I just missed it everywhere else.  Now if John McCain recieved 95% of the white vote, the word racism would have been plastered on the front page of almost every newspaper in America.  But when Obama gets 95% of the black vote, there's no real mention of it.  Once again, that's racism, ladies and gentlemen, the other side of racism.  Europe and Canada and even more stupid when it comes to racism.  Usually the only examples they have to learn from are American television (there really doomed).

Moving along to the election even way before the economic disaster of 2008, I seemed to be one of the few white people in the world that new that Obama was going to be the next president mostly due to the fact that his skin was half black, and Juan Williams, a black man, was the only news commentator that even tried to bring this to the attention of the American people.  Of couse, the rest of the media missed the importance of what Juan said or where to afraid to address the topic.  Even Bill O'Rielly completely bombed that night when he completely, and I think intentionaly, ignored what Juan said that night.  OK, with that stated, lets look at some distrubing fact in the election that white people completely missed.  It really is embarressing being white, and if you read ths article, you should be able to see just how stupid white people are when it comes to racism. 

Number one is the Reverend Wright thing.  Now I don't know if Reverend Wright is a racist or not, nor do I care; but what I do care about is the fact that if Joe Biden, John McCain, or Sharah Pallin went to a churh for 22 years where a white minister was preaching and saying racist things against black people, and hatefull things against America, with racism always looming in the background, all 3 of them would have been throw out of the election immediately (2 weeks tops and they would have been sent home crying like little babies).  Obama got a complete pass.  In fact, most white people, probably the stupidest people on the whole planet when it comes to racism; where not even aware of this.  If you did mention it, they would just smile and say, "Oh that doesn't bother me," like there one of the good one's, or they'd say, "yeah I know" acknowledging what happened and admitting it bothered them, but this had no real effect on the way they acted or voted.  If one of the 3 white people (Bidden, McCain, or Pallin) did this, these very same white people would have demanded there immediat dismissal from the campaign.  This is racism (the other side of racism) and if you don't start see it, white people, racism will never go away in America.  It's a double standard; the same laws that apple to white people must also appy to black people or racism will never go away in this country.  I can still hear the brothers laughing in the Marine Corpwhen white people said this. 

Well, ladies and gentlemen, this has to bother you because it's racism (the other side of racism).  White people, you can't have a double standard in this country when it comes to racism.  The same laws that apply to white people must also apply to black people.  If this doesn't happen, then racism will never go away in this country, and this has to bother you.  You're not being one of the good ones; your just making complete fools out of yourselves.  And if your doing this because your afraid then shame on you.  Mr. President, I ask that you don't run in 2012 due to the Reverend Wright thing for the reasons I mentioned above.  Now most white people are completely confused at this point, but since your half black, you no exactly what I'm  talking about.  I ask that you don't run in 2012.  Sorry, black people, most of you where completely aware of this and said nothing, so most of you are also guilty of racism too (the other side of racism).  Juan Williams was the only black person I know of who mentioned this, and the only news man in all America to see this and had the courage to state it.  Of course white people completely missed the importance of what he said. 

Another example of racism during the election (the other side of racism) is when the media kept saying that the young affuent white people were voting for Obama.  What does that mean?  If your not voting for Obama, you're an ignorant, worthless piece of shit, possible a racist!  That's a racist statement!  And why were the young white kids so heavily supportive of Obama?  Could it be that these kids had been so thoroughly brainwashed in our schools with being politically correct and multiculturalism that they where inwardly terrified at voting against him?  Inwardly being made to feel that they now were playing an important part in righting all the wrongs of the past, something they know nothing about?  Being made to feel after years of propaganda, by our schools and the media, that they finial got there chance to fly there freedom flags high.   How do I no this?  Because before I joined the Marine Corp and the brothers taught me different, I would've voted for Obama for the same reason."

For more information you can buy the book "America Under Fire" on-line at Amazon, Barns and Noble, or Xlibris.com.  It's only about $16 for a paperback and about $8 for an E-Book.

Also covered in the book, is the impotent and stupid way, America always insist upon fighting a guerrilla war.  Many of the same mistakes we made in Vietnam where making again in Afghanistan, and Iraq.  Why?  This is why the book was written; and part 2 covers an economic solution to America's economic problems.  This solution will probably never be implemented but people must become aware of it and start thinking accordingly.
