The American Welfare State

Posted by Joseph Whitworth Smith on October 12, 2010 at 7:27am

We read here,"’If you're the ruling party, this is not the sort of thing you want to have happening two weeks before an election,’ said Andrew Biggs, a former deputy commissioner at the Social Security Administration and now a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute.” He was speaking to the no cost of living increases for those on Social Security, for the second year.

The Nevada Senate race is interesting. Everyone knows that Senator Harry Reid is responsible for runaway government spending, and that government entitlements are the number one reason. Opponent Sharon Angle calls for privatizing Social Security. The election could go either way. Angle would have been a cinch to win had she been less specific about the way to cut spending. Angle is the Tea Party pick, not the Republican Party pick. In any event, whether or not Reid wins, the Republicans are going to regain control. But beware! Remember George Bush and "compassionate conservatives."

We are looking at a repeat performance. In the 1994 election, the Republicans won control. What happens after the 2010 election, when the Republicans get serious about balancing the budget at the expense of government entitlements? If I know Republicans, in the face of the Democrats’ blistering personal attacks, say what you want, but Republicans wimp out every time. They fear losing the election. Where does that leave the Tea Party? Remember the Alamo.

The Tea Party got its name from the Boston Tea Party—rebels against the King’s tax. In 1933, Roosevelt told the American people government had a duty to keep us from starving. He gave us the New Deal—the King’s tax. The Supreme Court turned the New Deal down, stating that it did not pass constitutional muster.

Keeping the American people from starving involves property. Whose property? Justice Brandeis, a Roosevelt appointee to the Supreme Court, said property is only the means, claiming the Court had made the mistake of making the means the end. Brandeis’ statement was in direct opposition of the principles and values established in America’s Constitution. Remember that America’s Supreme Court passed judgment on white people owning black people—blacks as no different than cows and mules. Over and over, it has been proven that the Supreme Court’s integrity is no better than politicians’ integrity. Roosevelt’s New Deal did not pass the test of reason fundamental to the law. Democrats used strong arm tactics to force New Deal law on America. The Court capitulated.

Roosevelt sold the American people on a lawless walk down a garden path, to the current dead end. It is government’s duty to provide an environment of equal opportunity. Therefore, it is up to the Tea Party to turn America around and head us back to the beginning of Roosevelt’s, and now Obama’s lawless, unconstitutional walk. After the election, the Tea Party’s work continues. First and foremost, every worker has the right to exist on the fruits of his own labor, which means that any and every law resembling Roosevelt’s New Deal must be totally phased out—no compromises. The Higher Law, background of American constitutional law, cannot be compromised without dire results.

Posted by james c. cochran on October 12, 2010 at 5:07am
Obama promised not to hire lobbyists and not to raise taxes on people making less than $250,000 per year. He would post every bill online before he signed it and he promised to negotiate health care reform publicly -- those are all lies. Then after going on the biggest spending spree in American history, Obama turned around on a dime and talked about how important deficit reduction was to him. He lied about health care. You can go on and on with these examples. There's not an honest bone in Barack Obama's body and the American people deserve better than that from their President.2) For the nasty class warfare: Barack Obama must be unfamiliar with the seven deadly sins because never before has an administration so openly advocated envy. Successful Americans have been treated like villains and whole industries have been slimed for no other reason than it's politically convenient. Obama supporter Bill Maher perfectly captured the attitude when he wrote,The next rich person who publicly complains about being vilified by the Obama administration must be publicly vilified by the Obama administration.Trying to destroy innocent people for political reasons. Demonizing success. Turning Americans against each other. For all the talk of unity during his campaign, Barack Obama has worked obsessively to divide Americans since he got into office.3) For Obamacare: Everybody in D.C., Barack Obama included, knew the American people didn't want Obamacare. The polls showed that they hated it. Scott Brown won "Ted Kennedy's seat" by promising to vote against health care reform. There were angry townhalls, Tea Parties, and tens of millions of phone calls and emails spurred by that legislation.Yet, Obama helped push it through anyway, methodically lied about what the bill would do, and arrogantly claimed people would learn to like the bill in time. This bill will cause the deficit to explode, kill private insurance, pay for abortions with our tax dollars, create death panels, ration medical care, and destroy the quality of medical care in this country. Obamacare would be a bad idea at any point in our history, but creating a massive new entitlement program when America is on the verge of a debt-driven meltdown caused by entitlement programs has set a new standard for irresponsibility. Let us hope, God willing, that no other American President ever matches that standard.4) For putting our children so deep into debt: Barack Obama's stimulus plan cost more than the race to the moon, the Louisiana Purchase, and the Marshall Plan -- in real dollars -- and it did nothing for the economy. Obamacare is a massive new entitlement program that we cannot afford. His 10 year budget? It will leave America with "more debt than has been accumulated by all previous Presidents in American history combined."As he did all that, Obama was in public saying things like this,I refuse to leave our children with a debt they cannot repay, and that means taking responsibility right now, in this administration, for getting our spending under control.Have you no shame, Barack Obama?5) For the abuse of power: Obama appointed a staggering number of czars to get around the congressional confirmation process. He spent tens of billions in taxpayer dollars and broke legally binding contracts to give his union pals a fat pay-off from the auto industry. He issued a creepy, dictatorial ultimatum to BP demanding that it give the government 20 billion dollars just because he said so. Obama took over the census process so it could be twisted to help the Democrats. Barack Obama is not a man who respects democracy, the Constitution, the American people, or the rule of law and he should be trusted even less than you should trust most politicians, which is to say, not at all.6) For the racial polarization of America: The unspoken promise behind Barack Obama's campaign was that his election would enable America to finally achieve its long held dream of being a post-racial nation. Yet, Obama's election has led to a flurry of finger pointing, grievance mongering, and race based accusations.Some of that has come from Obama's own administration. Eric Holder said America is a "nation of cowards" on race. Barack Obama even publicly sided with his friend Henry Louis Gates based on reasoning that really didn't go much deeper than Gates wass black and the cop was white; so the cop must be racist.That being said, Obama has allowed his followers to do most of the dirty work. In other words, Mr. Post Racial Healer is happy to see anyone who disagrees with him smeared as a racist as long as he gets to keep his hands clean. If you don't believe that, ask yourself, "What has Barack Obama done to stop the tidal wave of false accusations of racism that have been made in his defense?" Absolutely nothing of significance. For that vile and cynical tactic, Barack Obama should personally apologize to the staggering number of Americans who have been falsely called racists on his behalf.7) For the arrogance: The good news about being President is that it doesn't seem to have gotten in the way of Barack Obama's golf game. Nor his vacations. Moreover, despite the fact that Obama seems to be completely baffled by the fundamentals of governing, it hasn't stopped him from saying things like,But I don't want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don't mind cleaning up after them, but don't do a lot of talking.Then there's this story, which is turning out to be one of my personal favorites, given how the election seems to be shaping up,Rep. Marion Berry, D-Ark., fears that these midterm elections are going to go the way of the 1994 midterms, when Democrats lost control of the House after a failed health care reform effort.But, Berry told the Arkansas Democrat Gazette, the White House does not share his concerns.“They just don’t seem to give it any credibility at all,” Berry said. “They just kept telling us how good it was going to be. The president himself, when that was brought up in one group, said, ‘Well, the big difference here and in ’94 was you’ve got me.’ We’re going to see how much difference that makes now.”At what point does Barack Obama actually accomplish something not just worthy of the Nobel Prize he was given, but of any worth at all?

I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say
But I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around and say

That it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late. -- Apologize, OneRepublic

Barack Obama is a petty little man whose grandiose sense of self importance has always far outstripped his abilities and accomplishments. Putting a man such as that in the most important job on the planet is like taking a five year old off an airplane ride at a carnival and putting him at the control of a jet airplane in mid-flight.

Obama, who was so far over his head that he couldn't see the surface from day one, took over the country at a crucial time and then boldly strode forth and made the situation dramatically worse. His whole presidency, from start to finish, has been the living embodiment of that famous Talleyrand quote:


They have learned nothing and forgotten nothing.
The rest of America, however, has learned quite a bit about Obama, which is why his approval rating has fallen like a stockbroker on Black Friday. At this point, not only should Barack Obama change course, he should apologize for what he's done wrong:

1) For lying to the American people: Calling a politician a liar is a bit like accusing a fish of being fond of water, but even amongst politicians, Barack Obama is a particularly hamfisted and prolific liar. Obama's strategy is simple: He promises everything to everybody and then points the finger elsewhere when people are inevitably disappointed. This has led to some jaw dropping whoppers than would even make Bill Clinton say, "Wow, that guy is a shameless liar."

Two Catholic Staff Members Fired because they can't speak Spanish?

Posted by Novus Ordo Seclorum on October 12, 2010 at 1:00am











A Stormfront member posted a very disturbing letterfrom
a Roman Catholic pastor at a Pennsylvania church. The
letterinforms parishioners that the pastor is terminating
two White members ofthe Catholic school's staff effective
the end of the 2008-9 school yearbecause they do not
meet some of the new critieria he has suddenlydecided is
necessary for occupants of the two positions.

Amongthe criteria is a requirement that those workers be
fluent in bothEnglish and Spanish. The pastor, Father
Vincent Welsh, is concernedabout declining enrollment,
and wants to induce the encroaching mestizopopulation
, renowned for their fecundity, to enroll their kids in his
Catholic school to increase enrollment, as well as tuition revenue.

The church is Saint Francis of Assisi Parish. The school is
Saint Francis of Assisi Catholic School. Both are located in
Norristown, Pennsylvania.

Counties in Red are Republican / Counties in Blue are Democrat
Interesting Statistics

From Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law,
St. Paul, Minnesota, points out facts of 2008 Presidential election:

Number of States won by:
Democrats: 19 / Won by Republicans: 29

Square miles of land won by:
Democrats: 580,000 / Republicans: 2,427,000

Population of counties won by:
Democrats: 127 million Republicans: 143 million

Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Democrats: 13.2 Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds,"In aggregate, the map of the territory Republican
won by Republicans was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens
of the country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens
living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of
government welfare.

Professor Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between
the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of
democracy , with some forty percent of the nation's population already
having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.

Columbus Day

Posted by Joseph Whitworth Smith on October 11, 2010 at 9:27pm

Columbus Day, the day Columbus brought European corruption to America, the Canadians celebrate this day as one to give thanks. Why? I’ll try to answer my question.

One hundred-seventeen years after Columbus arrived, not to mention what took place with the arrival of Cortez and the Catholic invasion of Mexico—just look at south of the border even today; it is appalling—in the interim of this southern fiasco, in 1609, England’s King James established Jamestown in what is now Virginia. The occupants of Jamestown had little more than the people who begin civilization 5,000 years earlier. It is of vital interest today of what happened to make a 5,000 year leap in 500 years. It is of vital interest of what the Declaration of Independence, America’s adamant departure from European corruption on July 4, 1776, meant.

Unfortunately, ninety-nine percent of the American people would say “so what” to the fact that the zodiac gave the birth of America the sign of Aquarius, the water-bearer to humanity. I venture to say that few, if any Christians connect “in earth as in heaven” in the Lord’s Prayer with the Age of Aquarius.

Three Persian astrologers, the Magi, followed the Star of Bethlehem to the birthplace of the Christ-child. It’s in the Gospel of St. Matthew. Christians, it appears, have selective understanding, the same as all religions.

We are told religion is a thing separate from the law—separation of the church and state, that is. Poppycock! The governor of Judea, Pontius Pilate, a Roman, asked Jesus if he believed he was king of the Jews. Jesus said his kingdom was in heaven. Is heaven and earth separate? Not according to Jesus in his Sermon on the Mount. He said “in earth as it is in heaven.” Separation of earth with heaven has to be accomplished to make the authoritative answer work, which is what was done. Pontius Pilate washed his hands of this Jewish problem. Jesus had to go. He was a serious threat to the powers that be.

In quantum physics, the study of the microcosmic, a dimension of the universe that is not yet physical in the sense that we know the physical, classical physics says it doesn’t relate to our world. Let us spin this idea in the opposite direction. The ancient sages of India believed that so is the microcosmic, so is the macrocosmic. Therefore, “in earth as it is in heaven.” You can’t divide the universe for convenience’s sake. This is not part of our teaching. Still, to make a 5,000 year leap in a tenth the time—how do you figure it?

Carl Jung coined the word synchronistic. Wikipedia: the experience of two or more events that are apparently causally unrelated occurring together in a meaningful manner. I’ve spent years going over the events in my life. There are too many coincidences to say they are not synchronistically connected.

“In earth as it is in heaven,” the ancient Mayan calendar is based synchronistic happenings. Richard Tarnas places September 11, 2001, as significant in the earth and heaven relationship. In Cosmos and Pysche, Tarnas goes into great detail on why he believes there is consistency between the outer planetary alignments and the archetypal patterns of human history. He spent 30 years studying the alignments of the outer planets. By the way, Saturn and Pluto went into unfavorable alignment in November 2008. That’s bad news. Obama was elected in November 2008.

The thing that impresses me the most, though, is quantum physics discoveries, which brings religion, the law, and science together into one mold. In a few words, in Even Harris Walker’s The Physics of Consciousness, under “A God for Tomorrow,” “But it is with the advent of quantum theory that we have discovered proof that we exist as something more than pieces of matter. In the development of quantum theory, the observer emerges as a co-equal in the found of creation.” “And God said, Let us make man in our image” (Gen. 1:26).

“Consciousness, the substance of this newfound reality,” states Walker, “that defines the observer,” does it not have fundamental existence? Giving thanks for Columbus’ discovery of America is in the quantum mind we each possess—the basic reality for our existence as a free people. We are now being put to the test: independence or one and all for the collective good. Who has a good word to say about the collective good? Based on past experience, is it something to be thankful for? Pray tell us why.

Attorney: 'Incessant' Bullying at Ohio District

Posted by Novus Ordo Seclorum on October 11, 2010 at 3:00pm

2010-10-11 21:24


MENTOR, Ohio — Teachers and administrators

confronting the issue of four bullied students who

died by their own hands must get involved to end

bullying, an attorney for grieving


families said Monday. Some of the student deaths followed

bullying that was "incessant, it was constant, and the teachers

and the administrators for whatever reason took a hands-off

, laissez-faire approach and didn't get involved and stop this

at its inception," Ken Myers said on NBC's "Today" show.

Families of victims told the NBC show there is a frightening

pattern of bullying-related suicides in the district.

"They were little terrorists," Janis Mohat, whose son Eric

shot himself in 2007, said on "Today." "They flicked his

ear, they pushed him into lockers, they called him gay,

fag. The bullies went up to him and said, 'Why don't you

go home and shoot yourself? It's not like anyone

would care.'"

The Associated Press reported in detail Friday about the

deaths of four Mentor High School students between 2006

and 2008. Three were suicides, one an overdose of a

ntidepressants. All four students had been bullied.

The district would not comment for the story.


Mentor Superintendent Jacqueline Hoynes said in a

statement posted on the district's website over the

weekend that the strategy to combat bullying includes

having elementary school students pledge to stand

up to bullies and report them to adults.


"Our anti-bullying programs have been in place before

the state mandated anti-bullying programs and policies

," the statement said.


Anti-bullying committees were set up in each school

building to identify the causes and deal with potential

victims, bystanders and adults, the statement said.


"Throughout the schools, the seriousness of bullying is

highlighted in class meetings, rules-reviews, parent

nights, motivational speakers, and in visible reminders

up and down the hallways," the statement said.

Myers said the district had seemed to take a hands-off

approach to bullying.


"They can have assemblies and all sorts of lessons that

they teach the kids, but probably the most important part

is what the teachers and administrators are doing when

they see this sort of thing happening," Myers said.


Two families are suing the suburban Cleveland district, claiming

their children were bullied to death and the school did nothing

to stop it. Hoynes said in the statement she had been advised

by the school attorney to remain silent on the lawsuits.

"But, I want to reassure the Mentor students, families, and staff

we will continue to address the mental health needs of our

students and anti-bullying initiatives in our schools," her statement said.


The Associated Press contributed to this report.

[My belief, teachers who fail to intervene when a child is being

vicitimized is just as guilty as the victimzer. There is no excuse.



Same goes for anybody else, fail to step in when someone is

being victimized? Your guilty of supporting a bully. You too need

to be charged with a felony. Aiding and abetting]

New offer, no agreement over Israel settlements

JERUSALEM — The Palestinians swiftly rejected an offer

Monday by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to

renew a freeze on West Bank settlement construction in

exchange for recognizing Israel as a Jewish nation-state.


"If the Palestinian leadership will say unequivocally to its

people that it recognizes Israel as the homeland of the

Jewish people, I will be ready to convene my government

and request a further suspension," Netanyahu told parliament.

Netanyahu has been under heavy international pressure

to renew a just-expired slowdown on settlement construction.

The Palestinians have said they will walk away from

negotiations if the settlement curbs aren't extended.


Impasse
There was immediate speculation that the conditional offer

was unlikely to resolve the impasse over settlements,

which stalled peace talks just a month after they were

launched. Only moments after the proposal was revealed,

a spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas

said they had rejected it. Netanyahu's comments came

amid a spat over the Israeli government's approval of a

bill to require new citizens to pledge a loyalty oath to

a "Jewish and democratic" state.


In general, the Arab minority — making up one in five

Israelis — view the oath as a provocation aimed at further

making them second-class citizens in a country where

they already feel discriminated against. Netanyahu said

the bill, which must still be voted on by parliament,

reflected the essence of Israel at a time when many

are trying to blur the connection between the Jewish

people and their homeland.


"The state of Israel is the national state of the Jewish

people and is a democratic state in which all its

citizens — Jews and non-Jews — enjoy full equal

rights," he said. "Whoever wants to join us, has

to recognize us."


http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39615600/ns/world_news-mideastn_africa/



Reuters and The Associated Press contributed to this report.




[I believe it is time to remove the prime minister

of Israel out of office. Start off by voting in person

that has passion for serving country.

As in serving fellow citizens.


Netanyahu has been prime minister for how

long now? Too long. He hasn't lifted a finger to

serve Jewish people. It is apparent, he is

only interested in serving himself. By the

looks of things, he has never been service

oriented. If he was he would have accomplished

something by now.


Why make either side suffer when the simple

solution to the problem is replace what ills.


Palestinian prime minister can't negotiate with

someone who has no interest in negotiating.

I mean give the man a break,

least he's trying.


Israel prime minister can't expect Palestine to

just give in to his wishes, not after the minster

nearly toppled Palestine!


What you want to bet Palestine and new Israel

prime minister get along fairly well? Place a person

who has compassion into the mix, and it will result in;

a done deal. Negotiating for peace agreement be a cake walk.]

Mandela says in book he didn't want to be president

Nelson Mandela never wanted to become South African

president and would have preferred a younger person to

become the country's first black ruler, according to a new book.


Mandela says in the book "Conversations with Myself,"

due to be launched Tuesday, that he only accepted after

senior leaders of the African National Congress put

pressure on him.


"My installation as the first democratically elected

President of the Republic of South Africa was imposed

on me much against my own advice," Mandela said.

The book, compiled by the Nelson Mandela Foundation

from personal letters, interviews and an unpublished

sequel to his autobiography, contains a foreword by

U.S. President Barack Obama.


Mandela, 92, said he would have preferred to serve the

new South African state without holding any position in

the ANC or government. After being put on the carpet by

one of the ANC's leaders, he changed his mind, but made

clear that he would serve only one five-year term.

Mandela's release on February 11, 1990, after 27 years in

apartheid-era jails, set in motion the country's transformation

to democracy, which culminated in historic all-race elections

in 1994 and his inauguration as the country's first black leader.

Reconciliation between blacks and whites was the cornerstone
of Mandela's presidency, which ended in May 1999.

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/39615046/ns/today-books/


[More people like Mandela need to be in office. How about Dali Lama?
(or Chris Rock. We be laughing ourselves silly)
Seriously though, why don't we have more people like these two
in office, all around the world? Make a better team. Or shall I
say New World Order. World wide peace is what, NWO is.]

But then again she is a cop. Cops are obsessed with

their own personal image, not necessarily by

How many educated women do we have in the

There isn't one profiler in non profit sector that I can think of.

Fusion Centers

Unifying Intelligence to Protect Americans

03/12/09


In Arizona, after determining the subjects of an international

terrorism case were involved in local criminal activity, the case

was referred to local law enforcement. In New Mexico, several

individuals linked to FBI investigations—including an

MS-13 gang member—were identified. In Tennessee,

e developed—with our partners—a formal process for

collecting, sharing, and analyzing suspicious activity

reports, looking for trends and patterns.


These cooperative efforts—and many more like them

—have been made possible through the work of

intelligence fusion centers around the country. These

centers, usually set up by states or major urban areas

and run by state or local authorities, are often supported

by federal law enforcement, including the FBI.


This week, nearly 2,000 local, state, tribal, and federal

representatives working in these centers gathered in

Kansas City to continue the process of standardizing

fusion center operations. The ultimate goal? To create

a network of centers presenting a unified front against

terrorism and other national security and criminal

threats that put Americans at risk.

School Shootings What You Should Know

Posted by Novus Ordo Seclorum on October 11, 2010 at 12:00pm





An unrelated series of shootings at schools in recent weeks

has people wondering about the safety of their children and

how they can help prevent future attacks. We talked with

one of our behavioral analysts, Supervisory Special Agent

Mary Ellen O’Toole, Ph.D., to get some
insights.


First, be vigilant, especially now, when the events are

still generating headlines, says O’Toole, who works in

the Behavior Analysis Unit of our

Critical Incident Response Group at the FBI Academy

in Quantico, Virginia. “We do believe a copycat effect

takes place after these events.”


That means more than just being watchful and wary

of who’s out of place in a neighborhood or school.


“Be aware of people’s moods.

Don’t depend just on how they answer the question,

‘How are you doing?’”

[In my educated opinion,
Lets start off by classifying all forms of bullying
as a felony! Regardless of title or position.
(Title/position isn't ground for immunity)
Teachers bully too. And teachers that fail
to stop bullying are just as guilty as the bully.

If Congress passed a law that rendered all
types of bully behavior as a felony, not only
would this make kids safe in schools,
but also provide oversight for
teachers that lack little or no leadership skills.
(why are bullies allowed to terrorize?
is the question}

If there was a law that felonized bullying, there
wouldn't be shootings in schools.
Kids wouldn't be killing kids (nor would kids
be killing themselves) What is it going to take to
protect kids in school? What are politicians
waiting for? waiting for more kids to get killed?
We citizens have a duty to protect children.
I say, if politician isn't interested in protecting
children, then legislation needs be left to us]

Know Your Food

Eating Close to the Earth

The food we eat is a multidimensional aspect of our lives. Food provides us with the energy that enables us to grow and prosper. Yet it can be, and frequently is, much, much more. Our food can be an experience in and of itself if we allow it to be. The dishes we remember from childhood offer unmatched comfort. The act of preparing meals can be an art form of the highest caliber. And the nourishment we derive from this fare promotes wellness within us. But many of us, distracted by daily affairs, forget that the profound pleasures of eating go beyond simple sustenance. We eat foods that are convenient or we eat unconsciously, snacking on whatever happens to be on hand. To understand the true value of food and the impact it can have on our lives, we should acknowledge and honor it by eating close to the earth.

If you have ever shelled and eaten garden-grown peas or bitten into a sun-warmed apple freshly plucked from its tree, you likely understand that there is a marked difference between these foods and those that are processed and stacked on supermarket shelves. Food recently picked contains more of its original life force and thus has a greater store of energy and nutrients. You can ensure you are eating close to the earth—and enjoying the many benefits of doing so—by shopping at a local farmers market and getting to know the individuals who grow your food. If you make the experience of shopping in this way enjoyable, you will be more apt to reject more convenient canned, packaged, and frozen foods in favor of the real delight you feel while browsing stalls of fresh foods nourished by the same soil you can find in your own backyard. You will soon learn what foods are in season in your area and how to prepare them.

As you savor the vivid flavors of juicy ripe fruits and the hearty crunch of unprocessed vegetables, you can also take pleasure in the fact that, by eating close to the earth, you are supporting farmers in your region, connecting with your local ecosystem, discouraging those who would waste precious fossil fuels by carting produce cross-country, and helping to preserve healthy culinary traditions that have existed for centuries.DOM

Outreach Tool "What is a Conservative?"

Posted by Roc Ratner on October 10, 2010 at 11:18pm
I wrote this primarily for the woefully uninformed. I am told, that it has converted many. What we really need is outreach. Igniting the base is not enough. The feedback about my essay from open-minded liberals has been gratifying. The method of; non-attack, just the facts, and addressing the common objections -- seems to allow them to continue reading. It really is brand new information for them. And they often start thinking and challenging what they have been mis-taught. I keep several in my car to pass out. We need converts this tool often works! My hope is that it goes viral and reaches the masses. Please send this to everyone on your list.What Is A Conservative?by Roc Ratner April 2009Conservatism comes from the root word “conserve,” which means to save. Everyone wants to conserve something. Even Liberals/Progressives wants to conserve many things, like the power to micro-manage others and the power to prevent life as in “a woman’s right to choose.” So if everyone wants to conserve something, then the real question is: What do “Conservatives” specifically want to conserve? What really defines a “Conservative?” It may not be what you have been told. You hear the word “Conservatives” a lot. You might be interested to know what it means.Conservatives deeply respect the unique historical crafting of the newly formed American government. It is important to note that the Founding Fathers had lived under, fought against and defeated the immoral, abusive, and stifling of individuals by a government (King George). They despised governmental abuse of its individual citizens. That is why they set out to preserve individual freedoms. Never before or since have newly victorious revolutionaries spent so much time and effort studying and pondering all forms of historical government and political thought with such a unique and noble goal. The Founding Fathers unselfishly wanted to create a supremely positive environment in which every individual citizen in the population was allowed to thrive to their personal maximum potential.Sadly, it is true that in the 1700’s slavery was a fully accepted worldwide scourge. Unfortunately, at that time the southern colonies had tightly embraced the accepted world’s consensus regarding slavery. It is interesting to realize that the world’s consensus is often very wrong and very often destructive. America’s unique greatness and power typically comes from not following the world’s destructive consensus. However, in this sad early instance the southern colonies did indeed embrace it whole-heartily. They adamantly threatened to kill the whole Constitution if that Constitution would take away the South’s economic base. If not for that threat, there would have been no need for the eventual civil war.The southern colonies did not want slaves to vote, but they also wanted to count non-voting slaves in the population totals, in order to get many more southern whites into the House of Representatives (number of representatives based on population). It is shamefully true that a compromise on that number was necessary in the 1700’s. The distasteful compromise reached was that: each non-voting slave was to be counted as 3/5th — towards the seating of a Representative in the House of Representatives. The compromise was embarrassingly necessary to even have a constitution. Thankfully, within the original constitution, the ability was included to amend that grievous mistake.Not talked about today is the documented historic fact that: it was the Conservatives’ deep love of “freedom from government” and “power for the individual” that prompted Conservative Republicans to vote for Civil-Rights in a much higher percentage than the Liberal/Progressive Democrats, who bitterly opposed Civil-Rights. There is sill one ex-“Grand-Keligle” (supreme leader) of the KKK serving as a Senator at this time. Senator Bird is a Liberal/Progressive Democrat, of course.True Conservative principles do not see groups, races, genders or classes of people. They see only individuals. They do not see “one group” as a target for pandering, and “another group” as a target to demonize. Consider that it was a Republican (Lincoln) who said, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”The smallest most vulnerable and weakest minority, by far, is the individual. Governments historically have always easily crushed an individual. Preventing that abuse was the core spirit of America’s creation.The Founding fathers strove to develop a unique balance, which would both create the “United” defense for the individual sovereign States, and the security of a basic common governmental structure — while still preventing government from getting in the way of the natural advancement of its citizen individuals. No such creative and deeply compassionate well thought-out search has ever been done in the forming of a government before or since.The Founding Fathers’ first unique and amazingly arduous undertaking was to read all the profound writings on political thought written throughout all of history. They discussed and debated the revealed issues at length. This was in a day without phones, telegraphs, recorders or efficient transportation. Many of these discussions/debates were in letters between each other. The huge number of these original letters were carefully collected and preserved at the time. The collection was published in book form as “The Federalist Papers.”A scholar by the name of Skousen made it his life’s work to follow each of the issue debates, across the complex web of these back and forth letters. He identified 28 main issues of principle, which were debated, eventually resolved, and generally accepted by the Founders. The Founder’s long hard work on these 28 principles was the foundation behind the creation of the Constitution. Skousen’s book is “The 5,000 Year Leap” with a separate chapter on each of the founding 28 principles. Each chapter includes the Founder’s back and forth discussions, debate, readings, thinking and creative inventions about the chapter’s specific principle.The Founding Fathers’ primary goal was to prevent power being excessively amassed by government officials. The world history they studied so completely proved that unlimited power would surely be used to micro-manage and exploit powerless individuals. The Founders’ research showed them that what they called “Rulers Law” proved to be the universal destructive path to an eventual abusive and population-crushing evil, on a national scale.The Founders knew that future generations of would be “Rulers” would not like being limited. In their preserved written correspondence with each other, a phrase the founders used was “putting the government in chains.” Those chains were to prevent the United States Government from ever following the historical use of “unlimited power of the Ruler.” The Constitution’s clear, plainspoken intent was to enforce these chains of “limited power” and make them timeless. So no one could ever become the unlimited “Ruler” of this nation.The Constitution clearly provides the Federal Government a very short list of allowed powers. And, just as clearly, the Constitution declares it illegal for the Federal Government to do anything else! You may hear this described as the “enumerated powers”The Founders used the 28 principles to guide the development of a clear and simple solution to the historic universal problem of governmental abuse — a system where the government (not the citizen) was strictly limited. They created a new and unique concept for humanity —“Freedom FROM Government.” The Founding Fathers invention, the Constitution, and the 28 principles that guided them brought forth an amazing advancement to humanity. The enabling miracle of “limited” government that unleashed the abilities of individuals to grow, build and achieve.The unique Constitution enabled the fastest advancement of a civilization in history — going from the primitive back woods, to super-power and even reaching the moon in only two centuries. No other civilization throughout all of history has advanced so far in such a short time. Compare such fast and enormous achievement to countries like India, China, Egypt, Iraq, etc., that are many thousands of years old. No other system of government has come even close to the explosion of widespread general lifestyle and wealth for the average citizen. Compare the abundant lifestyle of the lower 20% of the U.S. population to the crushing lifestyle of the lower 20% in India, Egypt, Iraq, Mexico, Cuba, Haiti, etc.The Constitution, with its original clear and plainspoken meaning — IS the American Dream.Learning the Founding Fathers’ well-considered principles of advancing individualism would make any person, as well as any country, stronger and more fruitful. Yet for some odd reason these most precious historical nuggets of wisdom are not taught in schools today. If you, like the Founding Fathers, are interested in such proven sources of individual power, then you can find the historic details in the book “The 5000 Year Leap: A Miracle That Changed the World” by Skousen. That profound book reveals the fascinating recorded thinking, reading, research, inspirations and discussions of the Founders as they crafted “the 28 Principles” and America’s Constitution. The Constitution that enabled the unique 200-year growth that Leapfrogged 5000 years of other political systems.Let me coin a word: “Group-ism,” which stands for the concept of single-minded power groups opposing each other. Group-ism is the exact opposite of individualism. Such groups come in many destructive forms—such as racism, sexism, class-ism, age-ism, religious-isms, etc. All such “Groups” have a common evil core of encouraging and spreading division and hate, and encouraging attacks on other groups.Such ugliness is evil (live spelled backwards). Nevertheless, it is indeed the best way to create a group-against-group division (the historic “divide and conquer” strategy). As the Founding Fathers’ research showed, every dictator in history got to power by pitting one group against another groupThe art and science of using group-ism to gain power has a long and evil history of refinement. Throughout history there have been many how-to books written, such as Machiavelli’s “The Prince,” and others by Hitler, Marx, and Mao. The modern book, “Rules for Radicals,” by Saul D. Alinsky is a modern, evil “how-to” book for manipulators and would-be dictators. In it, he explains in Machiavellian practical terms how to deceive, lie, manipulate and twist a group’s morals. Alinsky explains how successful group organizing and exploitation requires an divisive crisis to be created, and then used as an emotional smoke screen. The historic tactic consists of spreading indiscriminate hate to justify the immoral plundering of a whole group — by organizing another group and whipping it into a frenzy. Alinsky teaches how to do all this. The time-tested fact is this — the automatic unthinking anger and thoughtlessness of mass emotional fervor is the most necessary tool there is for the evil “power-grab” by any would-be dictator.There is a recognizable recipe, that all dictators have used, and would-be-dictators must use, to amass absolute and destructive power. In order for a crisis to grow to useful proportions, the mass “hate” needs to be encouraged through twisting of facts and outright deception. A charismatic and eloquent leader is required to focus and organize the unrest. Historically this power-seeking leader always turns out to be a control freak that is emotionally (but mistakenly) respected because of his followers’ lack of fact checking and their ignorance of his hidden goals. The next step is for an unrealistically idealistic and gullible media to carefully and redundantly “fan the fire” of manufactured dislike, which then grows into hate as the often repeated lie becomes thoughtlessly accepted. The Nazis called this strategy “the Big Lie.” This emotional “Big Lie” is a necessary for a population of otherwise kind people to blindly accept the manipulation and cruelly participate in the self-righteous and vicious destruction of any and all individuals, groups or institutions that get in the way of the would-be dictator’s power grab.The strategies of “personal destruction”, “attack journalism,” hate mongering, and social class warfare, which pit one generation, race, economic group or industry against another, might all seem very familiar. We have seen a lot of that lately. The practice of deceptively organizing groups into angry riled-up power-bases is the business of many current professional organizers. Who utilize anger to rationalize immoral and greedy, thug-like intimidation activities.Instead of focusing on individual-empowering solutions, many power-hungry, highly placed US government officials have been exploiting group-ism. It is shocking that several very high American politicians have recently echoed the Alinsky recommended sentiment of “Never let a good crisis go to waste.” It is strange and troubling that some in high government today have even paid very respectful homage to the book “Rules for Radicals.” One very high federal official even wrote her college thesis on its intricacies. These same high office-holders never mention the Constitution. To which they are sworn to “preserve and protect the Constitution,” as a condition of holding office. However, it seems the Constitutional limitations on their power—“get in their way.”Conservatives want to conserve what has compassionately nurtured the amazing historical advancement of individuals and therefore humanity. Technically we still do have the original Constitution that insists on the miracle of freedom FROM government,” designed to limit government But those that want the return of “Rulers Law,” have been piece-by-piece chipping away at the Constitution for decades. The intent of the Constitution is currently being ignored, misinterpreted, and its meanings twisted. So that it seems to enable group-ism and supports a micro-managing command and control. This is the exact opposite of the Founders’ intent.The core of what a Conservative wants to conserve is the original meaning and timeless, supreme authority of the Constitution and its limitations on government power.The Constitution, its original, clear and plainspoken meaning — IS America!Command-and-control, micro-managing politicians have a lot to gain from “Rulers Law.” The current system of all-powerful governmental officials arbitrarily selecting winners and losers requires that want-to-be winners must pay off the government officials in order to buy that favored status.The current unconstitutional system is “pay to be favored ” by the all-powerful “Rulers,” with unlimited arbitrary “selections” and “favors” to give out. This unlimited system is the root of enormous campaign funding and provides lavish perks for political “Rulers,” who do the arbitrary “selecting.” Even the poor “pay” for favored status. They “pay” with an organized, rigidly enforced, solid voting block. Do you feel intimidated to speak against the peer pressure?The goal is a voting block based on group-ism.Today’s common campaign promise (spoken or not) is, help me to get the power, and I will “favor” and select “your” group to be “given” advantages. All you have to do is give up your individual power.This current system makes government’s arbitrary, preferential, unlimited and unconstitutional “favors” for-sale. The required payments to “Rulers” for favoring a group takes many forms; money, lavish perks, organized voting blocks, back-room deals, or the providing of deceptive glowing publicity/news. In addition, for-sale is the government’s ability to target and damage whichever group the “influence buyer” hates the most. Sadly, the ability to damage is the only thing the government does very effectively.It has all been done before. Historically there are many unlimited “Rulers Law” systems for exploiting populations. Examples include the “Divine Right of Kings—the right to absolute unlimited power, enabling them to simply take anything or abuse anything or anyone they wanted. Government “owning” of companies — is the dictionary definition of communism. Fascism (National Socialism or Nazi-ism) is defined by the installing of government puppets to manage companies, insuring the government maintains absolute control. With such systems of control, the greedy government can take anything and everything it wants.All such political systems have eventually led to extreme poverty and great misery for the abused masses —masses that were originally misinformed and emotionally manipulated to be enthusiastic about the power take over. History is very clear. Even so, such political systems have been tried repeatedly throughout global history. The historic record of hundreds of examples is clear. Such systems have a 100% failure rate in continuing to uplift their people. As well as a 100% success rate in eventually devastating individuals and whole populations. The old saying is “those ignorant of history are doomed to repeat it.”The Founding Fathers saw, and true Conservatives still see, unlimited government’s micro-management of individuals, their business and labor, along with the system of government officials arbitrarily selecting winners & victims — as a sure path to inevitable devastating evil on a grand scale.In contrast, a Liberal/Progressive wants an unlimited, unchained Government to grow ever larger and more powerful. They want this, precisely so they can micro-manage the population, including you. The Liberal/Progressive sees freedom of individuals as disorganized, messy and objectionable. The goal is lock-step conformity. They deeply crave to micro-manage you in order to stop everything you do, that they personally judge as objectionable. A Liberal/Progressive makes a career out of objecting to other people’s usage of freedom. A Liberal/Progressive wants the power to back up their micro-management with severe punishments in the law. After All “they” know better than you. You have to be forced to comply. They believe their power will enforce a “perfect world.” “All hail” the perfecting works of the dictators of Utopia! (?)Is the noble and population-uplifting concept of “freedom of the individual FROM government” worth conserving? Conservatives continue to think so. Liberals /Progressives do not! This is the simple, clear and profound defining DIFFERENCE between the Conservative and the Liberal/Progressive ideologies.Liberals/Progressives will always need to buy votes with giveaways, etc. But government does not make or create anything, so they have to take money and things away from others, exploit someone in order to give unconstitutional “favors” to someone else.Slavery is characterized by forcing someone to work against his or her will —simply taking his or her work (labor) by force. Money is the fruit of people’s work (labor), thoughts, talent, creativity and invention. Continuously taking money from someone by force is taking his or her labor by force. In other words, “slavery.”Is not “wealth-redistribution” stealing from one enslaved group to pay off another more highly “favored” group? A recipient group actually purchases being favored. Of course, what little the government “gives away” is always minus what the government greedily and deeply skims off the top for itself.Misinformation, ignorance and repeated lies are the keys to how all this evil takes root and grows. For example, every student in school and TV or movie viewer is taught repeatedly that, by definition, all businesses are evil “greedy” meanies and governments are “compassionate.” You hear it all the time, so it is just accepted as fact.Nevertheless, logic exposes the truth. What happens to a truly greedy business, say a store that tries to sell a gallon of milk for $10? They lose customers fast. Customers have the freedom to buy elsewhere. So, they do. A business desperately needs willing customers or it goes out of business. Successful businesses are always thinking of new ways to please and earn more customers that are willing. Truly greedy businesses that do not care about their customers are automatically eliminated. Bankruptcy releases resources and employees to move to other, more compassionate growing businesses. That is, unless a government selects a bad one to bail out.But what happens when a powerful government gets greedy? First understand that the government doesn’t need your willingness. When you don’t want to pay the government’s arbitrary high demands, they just use brutal power to take what they want! They just take against your will. You do not have the freedom or power to run away from greedy government officials, the IRS, the police, courts or prison. Like all slaveholders, their power is ultimately backed up with guns. The willingness of free customers is replaced, with forceful intimidation.When a Government does not need your willingness, it sees you as merely a helpless resource to be plundered. Or they see you as a useless (to them) expendable, expense. Does a governmental middle manger or accountant in control of your fate, really care about you personally? Is this what you call “compassion? !” They tell you it is!People do try to leave a greedy, abusive country run by “Rulers Law,” but that means a huge change in culture, life style, and language, etc. Historically, greedy Governments get tough when the source of all their money (the enslaved victim taxpayers) try to escape. Think about the borders of Cuba, North Korea and the Berlin wall. Greedy governments are historic killers of individuals and whole economies.The wide spread propaganda of “Greedy Business” and “Compassionate Government” is a very false and a very dangerous trap! Conservatives seem to be the only ones fully aware of this obvious historic fact.How many in the government-schooled population know that the top 25% of earners (as a group) pays over 86% of all collected tax money? Is that a “fair share?” Are the masses taught or aware that 43% of the population (another group) receives vastly more from government programs as handouts, than the group pays in taxes? Politicians, schools, the news media, TV and Hollywood movies have all baited the very dangerous false propaganda trap of “greedy business/compassionate government,” and carefully hidden the simple, easily provable truths.Why all the deception and deceit? The leading Liberal/Progressive, would-be “Rulers” want the large tax-receiving group to be worked up into an angry hate of the smaller rich group that pays all the bills and paychecks. Why? So the government will become justified and empowered to punish and enslave employers. Only then can the “compassionate” (?) government seize for itself control of businesses and all sources of money. Those in that small hated so-called “rich” employer group are intended to be the enslaved victims. The method is for this small, targeted group is to be vastly out numbered by the angered mob. Deception, deceit, wide spread misinformation and hidden truths are necessary to build and encourage the angry, hate-filled mob into a solid voting blockWhat happens when that hate-filled mob of 43% of the “favored” dependants grows to a dictatorial 51%? One does not need to guess. Historically they feel empowered to punish and take everything away from the enslaved so-called “rich” employers. It has happened several times before in history. The mob greedily goes for the freebees! There is a great celebration of joyful, greedy, plundering, legalized looting and destruction. In the collapsed Soviet Union the need to crush the resistant, independent-minded meant killing 20 million of its most productive people, fourteen million more than the National Socialism of Nazi Fascism! That is a lot of “free goodies” for the taking. It sounds great to the masses of government dependants. However, the Rulers get most of the spoilsHowever in each historical case, the government always eventually needs more and more money. But a government creates nothing. Government can only take from the ever-more-deeply impoverished slaves that dwindle in number. The slaves eventually either runaway, become broke, die-off or are murdered. The fabled equality of utopia historically always crumbles when “Other People’s Money” runs out.The Government, which never did create any actual merchandise it self, becomes bankrupt. The government’s micro-managed house of cards then crumbles when the slave money runs out. The poor, helpless, government-dependant population suddenly does not receive anything at all from the “now bankrupt” government.Historically, those dependant on government are devastated to the point where survival is a serious concern. These extreme desperate conditions make for extreme anger & violence in the population, which draws massive, brutal and violent governmental retaliation and repression. The desperate, greedy, all-powerful government then fights its own population with every cruel, destructive, murderous weapon they have. The Soviet Union did murder most of the successful employers and farmers who did not escape—and then turned on the poor. The economy and population was devastated for generations.Who among the employing and hated 25% who are here now, would choose to stay in our country to become slaves? Who would then provide us the food or productive business that feeds the entire economy? Who would provide jobs that enable employee purchasing power? What is left for anyone after the rich employers and food producers are made to be poor and put out of business? After the employing goose (who lays the golden egg of 86% of all tax revenues) is foolishly crushed, who will then fund the care of the vast number of government dependants?The greedy all-powerful government of a country when devoid of employers and jobs has only the under-employed, starving poor left to plunder. After all, the “Rulers” lifestyle must be maintained at all costs. How do all the abandoned dependants survive the chaos and violence?The Soviet Union did crumble into the dustbin of history. The Soviet Union was not the first or the last. The tragic, historic list is long. “Those unaware of history ARE doomed to repeat it! How then does the U.S.A. even survive?Do you really just accept the widespread “big lie” that a micro-managing “Rulers”-style Government, which does not even need your willingness, will always be reliably compassionate and always take care of you? Do you want to put all your eggs (and your life) into that basket?The truth is the government “playing Santa Claus,” is really a burglar in disguise. Or more accurately a disguised, greedy, bumbling fool playing with matches, with a long history of carelessly burning down other people’s houses.Do you really want to live in the helpless squalor of the crumbled Soviet Union or Haiti? Do you want to work for an incompetent, clueless, all-powerful and destructive National Socialist Government “Czar?” How would you like living under the power of Cuba, Haiti or North Korea? Or how about living under the absolute power of the violently enforced group-ism of the Taliban? Do you relish being forced to join and slavishly obey an abusive, greedy, punishing, government-approved central plan? Is micro-managed utopia really, the system of you had hoped for?Unfortunately, it is very easy to deceive a government-schooled, media-misinformed population. A professional, “Emotion & Thought Manipulator” simply preaches the glory of group-ism and indignant jealousy. Such a professional can then guide people to misinterpret and disrespect a Conservative’s anti-group-ism and his or her lack of willingness to immorally injure/enslave one individual or group in order to benefit another more “favored” individual or group.Conservatives are not so bad once you understand us. Perhaps you did not know our point of view. Truth is drowned out, blocked or intentionally misrepresented by the news media, movies, TV, schools unions etc. The government has even been seriously talking about wanting to take over control of talk radio programming and internet content. Conservatives are indeed the group selected for no-holds bared, vicious attacks by the “Rulers” and all their minions. “Politically Correct,” close-minded Liberals/ Progressives are intent on drowning out truth and logic with automatic, instant insults and intimidation. They are passionate about Free conservative speech being stamped out and silenced.The PC “Speech Police” and “Thought Police” are everywhere. Ever wonder why? It is all to protect the “Big Lie” of “Greedy Business / Compassionate Government.” Rulers desperately need to make the “history-unaware population” believe that unlimited government is a compassionate Santa Claus with a bottomless sack. They need you to be helplessly dependent on their “favors” and “gifts.” That way they own you, and can micro-manage every part of your life. All this power and wealth would be lost to those that lust for “Rulers Law” if the truth about Conservatives were to be widely known.Sadly, some “so-called Republicans” have greedily accepted the evil concept of personally benefiting by isolating and pandering to opposing groups. These non-conservatives have embraced the selfish short-term political advantages of “group-ism.” True Conservatives call these despised sell-outs “RINOs (Republican In Name Only).Do not let the existence of RINOs confuse you about what a True Conservative wants to conserve—the liberty of ALL individuals by protecting the entire population from a government that is power-hungry, micro managing, abusive, and has destructive goals. Conservatives strive to restore the Constitution and once again set the individual free from government.Such historically evil goals, methods and results are very predictable. But there is a small light at the end of the tunnel. Conservatives and the smallest most vulnerable, abused minority of “the individual,” can prevail once again as the truth slowly leaks out. There is Hope (!), thanks to the many uncensored methods of non-government-controlled, propaganda-free communication. And thanks to the declining credibility of liberal/progressive “Emotion & Thought Manipulators,” such as media, news and schools. There are now many new books that dare to spread historic political reality. These books are on bestseller lists. And, there is, of course, the Internet and talk radio. Individuals are talking about all this with each other on the Internet, and getting together. The information monopoly of the media is crumbling even as we speak.There are great and positive signs of the times, a fledgling mass reemergence of the love for freedom and liberty by brave individuals. Look at the Amazon.com top-selling book rankings. The original 1700’s era text from the pre-revolution pamphlet “Common Sense” written by Founding Father, Thomas Paine is now in a current book titled “Common Sense, The Rights of Man and Other Essential Writings of Thomas Paine.” Amazingly, two centuries later his original work, as of the date of this writing, April 3, 2009, ranks 24th on Amazon’s best selling book list. “Common Sense” was the unifying journalistic spark that got the mass of individuals in the colonies ignited to reject the English king’s all-powerful abuse. Could Paine’s historic pamphlet “Common Sense” open minds and stir a population’s imagination again? Will the whispered words of freedom from-government, liberty and independence be secretively spread from person to person once again?As of this writing, April 3, 2009, included in Amazon’s top-10-best-seller-rankings are the books “Liberty and Tyranny” (about the history of governmental abuse contrasted with Liberty) and the previously mentioned book, “The 5000 Year Leap.” Also ranked at number 17 is “Atlas Shrugged,” by Ayn Rand, originally written in 1957. It is a very inspiring novel about a brave, rugged individualist fighting through government caused roadblocks and tribulations. Ayn Rand was inspired by real, destructive government abuses at that time.Also at this time, still in the top 100 rankings is the older “Men in Black” that documents the actual history of the very un-constitutional abusive power grabs by the Supreme Court itself.Apparently a great many people are starting to become interested in rediscovering U.S. history’s wonderfully unique and enabling founding principles that created the miraculously successful, Constitutional-based, Land of the Free (FROM government) and Home of the Brave, (self-reliant) Individuals.Should we just change the words of the national anthem the “Star Spangled Banner?” To the Rulers version; “the land of the Micro-Managed and the home of the Dependent” ??!!Liberals/Progressives have been continuously eliminating the use of the founding principles of the Constitution, bit by bit over the last six decades. The “5000 year leap” miracle is grinding to a halt under the onslaught of government micro-management. Lately the Liberals/Progressives have mounted an all out war against their hated, core Constitutional limitations on invasive governmental power.Yes, there is a profound difference between Conservatives and Liberals/Progressives. The defining question of our time is… Are you, Pro-Constitution (the original meaning, as intended) or are you Pro Rulers-Law (Anti-Constitution)? There is no middle ground. Pick your side. Liberty or Tyranny?Postscript:It is now up to you the individual, to spread the truth. Don’t wait for the media, schools, news, movies, Democrats or RINOs. They refuse to spread these uplifting truths.If you respect Constitutional freedom from government, for the individual, then pass this on to as many people as you can. You must be the modern Paul Revere. It is the least you can do. Many before you died to “preserve and protect” Constitutional freedom. Be brave and be heard, on a large viral level, by both Conservatives and more importantly the deceived Liberals/Progressives. Don’t let the peer pressure and the prejudices of “Politically-Correct (?)” silence you. Don’t just sit by and allow the “Miracle of the 5,000 year leap,” that is America, to crumble into the dustbin of history!An election is coming. The fate of the country and its whole population is in your individual hands. Make the Founders proud. You can do it!The world and its future are dependant on YOU spreading the hidden truthIf you want a Word .Doc file of this to print/distribute just email me I will reply with this file.© Roc Ratner, April 3, 2009 email: rratner1@earthlink.netPermission is hereby granted to individuals to reproduce and distribute.
