Thomas Jefferson knew what he was talking about because he-himself studied the previous failed attempts at government.
He understood actual history, the nature of God, his laws and the nature of man.
That happens to be waaay more than what most understand today. Jefferson really knew his stuff.
A voice from the past to lead us in the future:
John F. Kennedy held a dinner in the white House for a group of the brightest minds inthe nation at that time. He made this statement: "This is perhaps theassembly of the most intelligence ever to gather at one time in theWhite House with the exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."
When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe .
Thomas Jefferson
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.
Thomas Jefferson
It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes.
A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent thegovernment from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense oftaking care of them.
Thomas Jefferson
My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.
Thomas Jefferson
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves
against tyranny in government.
Thomas Jefferson
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Thomas Jefferson
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.
Thomas Jefferson
Thomas Jefferson said in
1802:
“I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies..
If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation,then by
deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property -until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”
I wish we could get this out to everyone!!!
I'm doing my part. Please do yours…
MONSANTO CO, WILL MAKE BIG BUCKS, GEORGE SOROS WILL MAKE BIG BUCKS, THE FDA WILL HAVE THERE NOSE IN EVERY ASPIC OF FARMING. COST OF FOOD IS GOING UP ! WITH FEDS. MORE INVALID, NOT

Lets see good ol' Sen. Peter King is head of the Homeland Security Advisory Board. Yet the southern border is wide open. DHS should be shut down for incompetence and big sis put in jail remember the MIAC report? Why is it we have to submit to being groped by TSA pedifiles, while our wonderful guys in washington don't? Did you know that Chertoff appropriated these machines and now is CEO of the scanner company Rapiscan, making millions, wonder if Good ol' Peter King is getting kickbacks from chertoff, for saying how good they are? Hey Pete, Chertoff could not even get a security clearance with his background but was head of Homeland Security? How come isreal does not have to sign the Nuclear Treaty? http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE64S1ZN20100529
Now he moans and groans about wiki-leaks shining light on the agencies who are conducting shady deals in the background. This is ludicrist. Now 39 dem. congressmen want Barry Soertoro to pardon a spy. The gist was that Pollard had spied for a “friendly country” and that the United States “should have” made available whatever was needed to help Israel what a load eh... Go here and see who supports this pardon and vote these Isreal first folks out. http://www.darkpolitricks.com/2010/11/congressional-request-for-super-spy-jonathan-pollard-pardon-another-example-of-israel-first/ So Pete King this guy spies for isreal , Isreal gives the Docs to Russia some friends eh. Look I ain't anti-semetic but facts are facts so don't be upset when you read for yourself in their own words and deeds. We need to get rid of AIPAC and all the lobbying groups in washington, which makes out politicians the best that money can buy. Here are some links for your perusal get your nose out of the boob tube and go read the facts not the media spin and lies... We need politicians that support America 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
Here are a few quotes...
“We, the Jewish people control America, and the Americans know it.” (Statement of Ariel Sharon, formerprime minister of Israel, Oct. 3, 2001.)
"Israel may have the right to put others on trial, but certainly no one has the rightto put the Jewish people and the State of Israel on trial"
~ Sharon - - March 25, 2001

Bob,
Nice going guys and dolls. The Tea Party now ties Obama. Now that Republicans have won control of the House, the idea is being put out that Obama can ignore Congress and rule by executive order. That brought a guffaw out of me. Here are some items that are not being discussed.
For a century, the American people have been reeducated to depend on government, like it or not. Through federal income tax, which began taxing only the richest of the rich, grew to tax all income producers—to become a Ponzi scheme—to fraudulently separate workers from their resources for redistribution. Federal income tax has as its basis control. The illusion behind government control that responsible leaders know better than the individual what is good for all totally misses the point. We are individuals, not parts of a hive.
Leftist politicians are putting out hogwash. There is no difference in a greedy self-serving capitalist and a greedy self-serving politician, except for the fact that the capitalist doesn’t make the law and see that it is enforced; leftist politicians do. History gives us not one example of a “responsible leader” in control being beneficial to society. In fact, history gives us multiple examples of free enterprise bringing great benefits to society. A thousand years back, while Europe was under the tyranny of the Holy Roman Catholic Empire, China was enjoying free enterprise and prosperity. What comes around goes around.
The creator of all things, in creating man, made him capable of being more consciously aware than any other life form on the planet, but like all life, conscious of self-survival. Self-survival is innate. It doesn’t reason; it is animal. Man reasons for his survival. We are the dominant life form. Uncontrolled power turns man into an animal, and those who follow jumping through hoops—for one example, Hitler and Nazi Germany, for another, America’s current leftist leadership and following.
Great men, like big fish feeding on little fish, feed their egos on little people. Knowing this about the nature of man, America’s Founding Fathers held that the Creator made all men equal, and with God-given rights that could not be taken without the permission of the holder of said rights. Individuals have a right to their bodies. If they don’t choose to be patted down before flying, the Constitution’s Fourth Amendment says they don’t have to give a government agent permission to grope them. But might makes right. “The law” says you get fined $11,000 for not giving permission.
The Constitution was written to avoid this we now experience. But, alas, the writers of the Constitution, in order to form a more secure union of states, felt that they had to allow the South to own slaves, exactly the principle behind the current federal pat down. It’s an expedience for a more worthy case, like owning slaves. Take your choice: Be a slave or refuse to be patted down and face the consequences. The Obama Administration is testing you. Surely, we are smart enough to outfox Obama. The guy is in La La Land. Off the top of my head, I can think of half a dozen ways to embarrass Obama. There is strength in numbers and we’ve got the numbers to beat Obama.
President Obama says our Constitution is flawed. He is clearly a one-world socialist. He and his kind have a vision of a better world, and wouldn’t you know, by putting themselves in control.
How do you deal with empowered egomaniacs? The thing we must understand about freedom is that it is God-given. I refer you to what Jesus said, “Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. . .But seek ye first the kingdom of God.” The kingdom of God is to be distinguished from the kingdom of heaven. The kingdom of God is universal—not in a place. Heaven is the time-space universe; everything has its place. Consciousness is not in a place, but essential. Nothing would exist without it. We each exist in a state of consciousness, as limited by us. God doesn’t limit us. Speaking for myself, I chose the God-state over the time-space consortium that limited men see a long time ago.
I’ve been tweaking authority’s nose ever since I found God. I win. Authority loses. Glenn Beck, formerly an alcoholic loser, found God and he is running rings around Obama. Beck is winning minds; Obama attempts to force us to submit to his B.S., and isn’t doing too well.
Listen to me and Beck. I submit that my life is far better than those depending on Obama. If we would only realize the power we individually possess, executive power or whatever, Obama and company would not have the chance of a snowball in hell.
With the news today, one could easily think what’s the use in fighting and toss in the towel. Chance favors the prepared mind. Think what you want and rely on yourself to make it happen.
The masses, we note, depend on the authorities to think for them. Why are they authorities? They think what they want and rely on themselves to make it happen. Thinking what you want requires, first, that you think there is no such thing as objective reality; that we were not created with hive mentality.
Jesus offered that you should do unto others as you would have others do unto you, the Golden Rule. You have your rights and others have their rights. The present authorities would have you submit to the good of all, or as President Obama puts it, submit to “collective salvation.”
Collective salvation is for the masses; the authorities do what is best for them, the law of nature. Obama’s idea of the law, the law he learned at Harvard, naturally, he has a problem with our Constitution, Obama learned the “old world” view of the law and then went to South Chicago as a community organizer to practice “the law.” He was Acorn’s lawyer. What more proof do you want that Obama practices the law South Chicago style, the law of might makes right?
With Obama’s exploding national debt, the law of nature will bring forth someone with the lesser of two evils answer, someone like Obama. With Obama, it is always the lesser of two evils, the evil he helped create, to practice the law of the jungle. How do you deal with it?
We now have a scientific answer for miracles. The state of mind, or conscious awareness is fundamental to the laws of nature. The microcosmic world, a world of infinite possibility, is connected with the state of mind. The more consciously aware we are, the more we, individually, are in control of our lives. When you think in terms of the Golden Rule, the Higher Law of nature under which humans were created, and with which to live, and the background of our Constitution, it all comes into play. When I read the Constitution, I realized it was voices of the past speaking to me. In my experience, you prepare for the worst and fight for your rights. Miraculously, the worst never happens.

The Awakening
.
It was a sunny day as I stood on the Capitol steps in D.C.
There was a great sea of people on the lawn before me
What brand of protestor be these with signs not vulgar or profane
Who called for prosperity, lower taxes, less government caused pain?
.
They invoked God and his forgiveness as they did pray
They said the pledge and sang the Anthem at each meeting day
So many people and yet they left behind not a speck of trash
For as far as you could see there was only green grass!
.
This new kind of protestor was without doubt a rare breed
All colors, all races, all faiths, all avocations and all creeds
Proclaiming their love of Country, patriots one and all
Honoring the Veterans and all, who had answered the call.
.
The Tea Party movement had been born at long, long last
Their name harkened back to patriots from our revolutionary past
We would know them by their patriotic garb, slogans and signs
Some on the left called them Astroturf, terrorists and worse at times.
.
They advocated for free markets, fiscal responsibility, freedom and liberty,
For Constitutional limits on the State and Federal government’s authority
They believe that “We the people” are the rightful masters of the land
And that the government works for us through God’s guiding hand.
.
At last the great silent majority had awakened and loudly they spoke
This November past, the Left and the media learned they were no joke
They stood proud for God, Country and principles with character so hardy
Taxed Enough Already became the battle cry of the modern day Tea Party.
.
What a counterpoint to the protests of the left in the past
With their signs advocating for peace, but that didn’t last.
No short sleeved shirts for their police guards on duty
Full riot gear was the order of the day, to control the unruly!
.
The Left would invariably espouse their green philosophy
Yet their trash left behind was an environmental catastrophe
They carried signs with nooses round necks and heads lopped off
Of religion and family values they would most often scoff!
.
I always wondered if any Liberals realized the hypocrisy of it all
“Do as I say, not as I do”, must require a great deal of gall
Or was it as simple as they couldn’t think, they were sheep
They were just out there protesting together, their minds asleep.
.
These days the lights and cameras are on the Tea Party
The newly awakened and no longer silent majority
What a pleasure to see patriots standing for their God and Country
Knowing their actions won’t embarrass us here, or over the sea.
.
The job is not done for the Tea Party; indeed, it just started
There is bad legislation to repeal and earmarks needing to be parted
A balanced budget amendment would be a good place to begin
Make the tax cuts permanent and the wasteful spending reign in!
.
The voters have spoken, Tea Party principles they embrace
They have flipped the House, the Senate, they'll finish next race
It is now for the new Congress to show they are up to the job
Or else next Election Day they will face, yet another angry mob!
.

Copyright 2010, Thomas J. WhitmoreHere's is Bill Cosby's address which became famous despite the fact that no part of
the mainstream media wanted anything to do with it; and none of them have ever published it. Juan Williams, the ex-NPR commentator, wrote a whole book on the subjects raised by this speech, but Cosby says it best . . . .
The “Ghettosburg Address”
I borrowed my title from Glenn Beck and Glenn from Ghandi.
Like the smell in the air before a rain storm, you know it’s coming, we know the change is coming in our lives. America can’t continue spending and borrowing at the present rate. Surely President Obama knows that, although I have not heard him mention it. President Obama knows that printing trillions of dollars with nothing back of them, called monetizing the debt, or government created inflation as the means of offsetting extravagant spending, indebting America’s children, we talk about it, we’ve yet to hear Obama talk about it. Par for the course, Obama doesn’t talk about extremist Muslims. He doesn’t talk about America’s pilgrims on Thanksgiving Day; instead he talks about native Americans. Obama’s problem is America’s Constitution. He doesn’t like it so he talks in riddles. He’s a traitor.
The numbers game, or state lottery, played by those who hope and wish for riches, Obama spinning the wheel of fortune for this mindless type, millions of Americans hoping against hope that it will stop on their number, this idea of living in the hope that lady luck will favor you has millions of American hooked. History proves me right. You people are doomed to die in despair.
Let’s play my numbers game; become the change you want to see. Einstein proved, with numbers, that everything can be reduced to vibrations. Vibrations reduce to numbers. Numbers, a form of logic, explains things our limited sensibilities can’t explain. Before the present age, from a more basic understanding to materialism, to the tip of the iceberg, before man was blinded by surface reflections, man looked to the movements of the heavens and drew geometric figures. These were converted to numbers logic—if this is so, that is so. Over the centuries, quite a lot of the world’s knowledge was based on the heavens reduced to numbers.
In the Lord’s prayer, from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, we read “in earth as it is in heaven,” my assumption based on a universe reduced to numbers.
Based on a universe that can be reduced to numbers, we read in the second chapter of the Gospel According to St. Matthew that Persian astrologers (three wise men), with the notion that a King of Jews was about to be born, followed the Star of Bethlehem to the birthplace of Jesus. The story of Jesus’ life tells us that Jesus, rather than a king, was a spiritual guide who did not like what he saw going on in the temple in Jerusalem. He turned over the money changers tables, the source of the temple priests’ revenue. The priests arrested Jesus. Since Jewish law didn’t allow them to execute him, they took Jesus to the Roman governor and asked him to execute Jesus. The Romans, in an effort to gain Jewish acceptance of their authority, had assigned a Jewish holy day to release a prisoner. Not finding Jesus guilty of violating Roman law, to appease them, Pontius Pilate gave the priests their choice of a convicted murderer, Barabbas, who was to be crucified, or Jesus. The priests chose to release Barabbas. Jesus, our savior and redeemer, paid the price of murder.
For an undeniable fact, might makes right. It’s the law of the jungle. The authorities have managed to make you and I responsible for crucifying Jesus. What makes their reasoning better than mine—their education, their public acceptance? They don’t know me or my reasons. There is nothing new about it. If you allow them, authorities will put you on a guilt trip every time. Making others guilty is a marvelous way of having your way. If you let Obama have his way, you feel guilty for questioning Islam. I see no guilt being expressed by Muslims for teaching their believers to kill infidels. Where else but in their Mosques do they learn this? Same as Obama, they defend their religion. If not in fact, in spirit, Obama is a Muslim. This Muslim spirit, control freaks prodding freedom lovers into enslavement—Sharia Law—as with the territory of all tyrants, this phony spirit goes with Muslim territory. I’m giving you the real story behind Jesus’ crucifixion: tyranny, the bane of humanity. Obama has the gall to call Sharia Law, or “collective salvation,” Christian.
“And God said,” in Genises 1:26, “Let us make man in our image.” Since God gave man dominion over all life on the planet, blessed man with superior intelligence, could it possibly be God’s command to kill his own creation? No, it is totally devoid of logic. It is unmistakably might makes right—terrorizing the world into submission—Sharia Law. Wouldn’t you know that the lesser of two evils would be the federal pat down? Do you want to take the chance of being blown out of the sky? Birds of a feather fly together. Those lying frauds! Obama and company are in cahoots with Muslim terrorists. By the time Obama gets done with his plans, your freedom will be a thing of the past.
As for “in earth as it is in heaven” (by the numbers, that is), Jesus came into existence at the beginning of the Age of Pisces with a message:
1. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works.
2. No man can serve two masters. Seek ye first the kingdom of God.
3. Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of your own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.
4. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find, knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
5. Therefore all things whatever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
6. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are raving wolves.
7. Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Progressives, I pray that you hear me. According to the numbers, there is a progressive order in man’s relation to the universe. We are here with increasing purpose. It runs through and links together the ages. Jesus and his message came at the beginning of the Age of Pisces. The numbers tell astrologers that “Pisceans desperately want to do the right thing, but as a rule they do not have strong willpower. Therefore, they are easily influenced by external factors”—Astrologer’s Handbook.
We are leaving the Age of Pisces, entering the Age of Aquarius. According to the numbers, “Individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity (Aquarius) have as their symbol the water-bearer, who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy. . .There is no affectation or snobbery in the Aquarian personality but a dislike of spurious imitation and hypocrisy in any form. Aquarians operate as equals among equals. However, they are not dependent on their environments for their security, because they derive this from being in the company of others.”—Astrologer’s Handbook.
What the numbers tell us is that change favors the prepared mind, and that merely wishing and hoping, by itself La La Land, Obama’s game will leave you in despair. Being the change you want to see is a numbers game that works. You have a choice. Rather than Obama, Islam—or whatever—Jesus has the right answers for you.
REV. AL SHAPTON WANTS THE FCC TO BAN, FOX NEWS, RUSH,BACK,AND O'RILLY ! REV. SHARPTON IS THE ONE WHO SHOULD BE BANED. NOT RIGHT, AND SENATOR JAY ROCKEFELLER, W VA. NOT RIGHT !
Nothing in the universe is too big to fail. There is a beginning and an end of all things. Whenever you replace God with man, then too big to fail becomes the law. The lesser of two evils becomes the law. The good of all overrides the good of the individual. Great men envision the world the way they want it. Great men’s ends justify their means. Name one great man whose ends, at great cost, lasted more than a few generations.
In response to 9-11, we’ve got the War on Terrorism led by the United States and the United Kingdom, with the support of other NATO and non-NATO nations. The world is forced to fight a few Muslim extremists who brought down the twin towers of the World Trade Center, did extensive damage to the Pentagon, killed thousands of people, and put a dent in the U. S. economy. Quite a victory for a few, wouldn’t you say? Thousands of Muslims in the Mid-East danced in the streets. Now we’ve got what they want, the War on Terrorism.
With an unlimited supply of humanity with whom to mingle, to the great disadvantage of freedom loving people, but to extremist Muslims human life is cheap; terrorists will stop at nothing; they have nothing to lose; the West is limited; terrorists have all the time in the world to wear the West down, with half of we Americans who don’t like our freedom, the half that don’t want personal responsibility for their lives, preferring instead cradle to grave security, what about the other half? Do you people call this freedom? We have to be crazy to fork over our sweat for this.
I don’t know how many of you have been reading my blogs, but I’ve been telling you what we can do about the too big to fail United States. First and foremost, we must learn how the universe is put together. It’s nothing like you’ve been taught. We now have scientific proof; I have my good life to prove it, not to mention my Constitution, which your government has assigned a glass case in Washington, D.C. I used it, much to the chagrin of government, and through it turned my life around.
The too big to fail United States is passing huge spending bills in the dark of night that do nothing to preserve our freedom. The too big to fail United States bails out corporate crooks, leaves our southern border open to criminals and terrorists, and cripples us with the racial profiling tag. Shamefully, every right we once had is being eliminated by and through the lesser of two evils scenario the too big to fail United States is foisting off on you, not me. My life is good.
When authority tells you, for your own good—take for instance the pat down—you have to do this or that, weigh it. Remember the two black thugs standing at the entrance of a voting place with clubs, the goons Attorney General Holder refused to prosecute? Is it really for your own good or authority’s good? Really, folks, do you like being groped? You know government bureaucrats, especially union bureaucrats. Those goons, like the above named with the clubs, have the power and they love to make you toe the line. Imagine someone patting you down with the mentality of the union thugs you see demonstrating their talent for intimidation. If you flinch when they goose you, you are resisting. You are in big trouble, boy. It can cost you $11,000. We are now subject to Nazi type oppression. Thanks to terrorism, what a hassle it has turned out to be to fly. What is your government up to?
Is the pat down not really government intimidation? We can do no other than pat everyone down because to do otherwise would be racial profiling. We can do no other than let terrorists and criminals cross our southern border because to do otherwise would be racial profiling. We can do no other than allow a mosque to be built near ground zero because the Constitution says we have to allow it. We have to try terrorists in our courts, and praise them for exonerating a terrorist that murdered 239 people, convicting him only of destroying government property. What kind of justice do you call that? We really must allow the authorities to limit free enterprise to save the environment. It’s all in our best interests that we pay double our power costs.
Is this not a lesser of two evils shell game government is playing to take away every right you have, including your right to earn a living? Is it not the end result justifies the means? Our rights, our property, our lives must yield to government’s noble end. It’s unbelievable! Tell me when it has ever worked to the individual’s advantage let government plan your life. Government is either your servant or your master. Is this not being carefully orchestrated by mafia type political schemers? Is the end not one-world socialist dictatorship?
For an undeniable fact, the United States has not won a war since World War II. What are we accomplishing in Afghanistan? The same as in Viet Nam. Besides the expenditure of American lives, we are spending money we don’t have to spend. The way I see it, your government has made us two-time losers.
The question arises: Is your mind in your skull, or is it in an unbounded state? Are you not free to think what you want? Are you not born with a destiny? I don’t understand it. Why are a precious few destined to do great things, which cost us immeasurably, and the masses destined to drift on the tides? Why were you created with a mind capable of thinking beyond the end of your nose? Do you leave it to authority to do your thinking because you love losing? That seems to be the case. The lesser of evils is accommodation—peace at any price. Why do you think the world’s tyrants continually threaten us? So allow yourself to be patted down because you don’t want to risk being blown out of the sky. Peace at any price. It makes a lot of sense. You pay in more than one way.
The War on Terrorism is a war of minds and, clearly, you are the big loser. Is your government not the winner? It is using the War on Terrorism to terrorize you. Why would you allow your government to call you guilty without probable cause? Where is your mind? You are not using your mind; you are jumping through hoops.
How much longer?
Early to bed, early to rise, early morning is my time to meditate. Another Thanksgiving day, what to be thankful for? I hear that only ten percent of we World War II veterans remain. I’m thankful to be alive and well. And more, these are the best years of my life. Perhaps I’ve been spared to tell my story.
Now that George Soros is close to proving that the American people are not clever enough to self-govern, I’m thankful for the Tea Party. I guess we can be thankful that our good life is attributable to America’s pioneers who believed in Higher Law, and wrote a constitution based on it. We of the Tea Party want our Constitution back.
Most of my fellow Americans believe in a higher power. We wander in search of a better life, and find it through our faith in a higher power. We realize that we’ve been led down a garden path. The tide is beginning to turn. America’s makers and keepers of the law are beginning to listen to the people.
Mysteriously, the fate of the American people is very close to my own life experience. A vast change in my life was shaping up in the 1970s and I had no control. At first, I was fearful. My fear turned to anger, then depression. What could I do to save my God-given rights from a government gone bonkers? I was helpless.
I turned to the Constitution. What can I say this day for being thankful? My depression was sublimated. I felt that voices from the past were speaking to me, encouraging me. I had a bigger than life calling. That seems to be where the American people are now. I am 35 years ahead of you. Instead of allowing external forces to control my life, I looked within for answers. Miraculously, when everything should have gone wrong for me, everything went right. I found power within I never knew I had. I overcame whatever stood in my way, and there was a lot. I never could have gotten past the obstacles without my direct connection with God. I’ve learned that connecting with God is a do-it-yourself thing. Nobody led me to God.
My Constitution told me to believe in myself; that is, God and myself. I AM THAT I AM. “Seek ye first the kingdom of God.” Judging from my own experience, that we Americans are different than other people—more determined—George Soros and company, determined to turn us into trained animals jumping through their hoops—those fools don’t know us. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Soros and company are about to be sidetracked. Give thanks for this day and the rest of your lives. If the best years of my life came late in life, believe that the best lies ahead. By your own will you will make it happen.
The notion of humility as a virtue brings numerous images to mind. We tend to envision those rare individuals who humbly bear life’s struggles while downplaying their own strengths. Yet humility is also associated with people whose insecurities compel them to judge themselves unfavorably as a matter of course. The true definition of humility, however, does not correspond precisely with either of these images. Humility is not passivity. Rather, it is an utter lack of self-importance. The individuals who embody the concept of humility appreciate that each human being on the planet occupies a unique place on an infinite spectrum of development. Though they can take pride in their own accomplishments, they also understand that the people they interact with each day are as valuable and have as much to offer the world as they themselves do.
To be humble is to accept that while there will always be individuals more and less advanced than yourself, those on all parts of the spectrum of development can provide you with insights that further your personal evolution. Recognizing these insights is a matter of opening yourself to the fact that not only do others think and feel differently than you, but their life experiences have shaped them in a very different way than yours have shaped you. This means that while you may have a greater understanding in some areas, others will always be able to teach you something. When you cultivate a genuine yearning to know what skills and talents those you encounter have been blessed with, you cannot help but learn humility. You instinctively understand that emotions like envy breed resistance that prevents you from growing, and that being flexible in your interactions with others will help you connect with unexpected mentors.
When you practice humility, you want to become as accomplished and evolved as you can possibly be, yet you are willing to submit to the expertise of others to do so. You understand the scope of your aptitudes yet you choose to eradicate arrogance from your attitude, and you can distinguish the value you possess as an individual while still acting in the interests of your fellow human beings. Humility, simply put, is a form of balance in which you can celebrate your own worth while sincerely believing that every other person on the planet is just as worthy as you.DOM

Happy Thanksgiving!
.
As we celebrate and give thanks with family and friends, we remember and honor those who came before to make our celebrations possible and those who could not make the journey this year.
.
It is a time to thank the Lord for all of our blessings, family, friends and Country. A time to reflect on our Pilgrim forefathers who made the long and arduous journey across the sea, bringing their values, principles and faith as they founded this new Country and the Founding Fathers who later gave us our great Republic and our Freedom.
.
Give thanks to God for being so lucky, but don’t forget to remain ever grateful for those blessings and remember that with Freedom comes the responsibility to protect it.
.
Say a “Thank You” for the great silent majority that found its voice and rose up this year. Pray that they will be silent no more, that they and you will find the time and the strength to remain ever vigilant and the courage to speak out when necessary.
.
Rejoice, reflect and recommit to honor, protect and preserve our values, principles, faith and freedom for as another great American once said:
.
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free”.
.
Ronald Reagan
40th president of US (1911 - 2004)
.
A wonderful Thanksgiving to all!
,
God Bless You and Yours,

A Thanksgiving poem for you, enjoy:

On Thanksgiving
.
On the fourth Thursday of every November
We reflect, rejoice and we all must remember
It is to give thanks this day that we all gather
With family, friends and others that matter.
.
We give thanks for our blessings and bountiful dinners
And pray for the Lord to forgive all that were sinners
Of those who no longer the journey can make, we will always remember,
The memories of them will burn in our minds like a glowing ember.
.
We celebrate the Pilgrims who survived those first harsh winters
Standing strong and grateful their hopes were not dashed to splinters
Give tribute to Squanto and the other caring Indians who,
Befriended the Pilgrims and helped them get through.
.
And to whom do we give thanks on this celebration day?
Certainly the patriots and leaders who a great part did play
In recognizing and defending all our God given rights
But, it is mostly to He on high whom shined the guiding light!
.
From Plymouth to Valley Forge and others where hard times were fought
Our Founders always reached out to thank God without second thought
Over the intervening years one fact has always remained clear
Our predecessors abiding faith in the Lord was always held dear!
.
Since the beginning there has always been the presence of God’s guiding hand
From the Declaration, to the Constitution, to the Great Seal of the Land.
“In God We Trust” is the motto of our great nation
To decry or dispute this would be beneath anyone’s station.
.
From ocean to ocean, from the Great Lakes to the Rio Grande
We celebrate the greatness and bounty of this our God given land
On our monuments and on our buildings our God we have praised
Yet among us are a few who would have all vestiges of God razed.
.
Now bow thy head please, for a moment and offer a prayer
That the Supreme Court of our Nation, the highest judicial layer
Might open their eyes and look around at all the abounding evidence
And realize that their separation of God and State is misguided jurisprudence!
.
Lest we forget or take for granted our most precious blessings and lose sight
Of “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” our God given unalienable rights
Be thankful to be able at will to move about, for free speech and the right to assemble,,
For speedy public trial, fair bail and no unjust search and seizures, to make you tremble!
.
Be thankful this and each day for your blessings that do abound
Remember to be ever grateful, that your ship doth not run aground
Cherish your families and other loved ones who support you in all ways
Remain true to your heart and thank God for all, till the end of your days.

Copyright 2010, Thomas J. WhitmoreSurprise! My subject today, grief, finds us with Helen Pena.
With his enormous viewing audience, Glenn Beck is one of America’s most positive forces. Beck, opposed to O’Reilly, employs his insight to tell us that something is not right, but for us to study what he brings to our attention. Beck tells us to make our own judgments. On the other hand, Fox News’ O’Reilly views the obvious mistakes Obama is making as something a journalist is not qualified to judge. Obama is intent on keeping our southern border open to terrorists. He is adamantly against profiling. He is for building a mosque near ground zero. He insists on patting down 80 year-old women and 3 year-old kids, giving federal bureaucrats the authority to violate Fourth Amendment rights, while refusing to use the term “Muslim terrorist,” giving said terrorists Miranda rights and trying them in the courts American citizens use. Obama praised a court that refused to call a Muslim terrorist who murdered 239 people a murderer. O’Reilly: judge not. Very interesting!
Obama goes about the world apologizing for America. He pushed through a stimulus package in the dark of night that has not helped the lagging American economy. He has tripled the national debt and sanctions watering down our money. The experts say our dollar is going to be the weakest currency in the world.
One-world socialist George Soros says if Obama doesn’t do what he wants, “we,” union officials and revolutionary Marxists, should look somewhere else. Interestingly, O’Reilly is a Harvard graduate, same as Obama. We know, after studying the facts, that the something not right is Harvard, a throwback to aristocratic Europe. Naturally, Obama would want to change our Constitution—transform America into a one-world socialist state. The way to do it is to make America part of the domino effect now taking place in Europe.
O’Reilly doesn’t know who Obama is or what he wants, but he says he’s looking out for you. Really! O’Reilly, an “independent,” neither here nor there, having more than one master, Look out! After Obama gets all his ducks lined up, then, perhaps, O’Reilly will tell us who Obama is and what he wants of us. Fox News will be out of business, but not O’Reilly. No, I don’t think O’Reilly is looking out for you.
How is it that I know so much? At this moment, America’s freedom is at stake. In numerology, freedom is at the midpoint in our development. It is a pivotal point, when a decision must be made. The number 5, freedom, at this midpoint we’ve accumulated a lot of experience and information that helps in our future development. The number 5 is an adventurous number. 5 is a chance taker, curious about what’s on the other side of the mountain. 5 tries out new ideas.
Interestingly, the prior stage of our development, 4, standing for stability, when form and substance are predominant, in the Bible the formation of Earth took place on the fourth day, 4 is nature and relates to Earth.
The number 1 is the beginning of the universe as well as our beginning. 1 is the pioneer seeking to find an identity, from the hydrogen atom to the human being. The Yin and Yang, the pairing is represented by the number 2. In my own life, I cut from the herd and went on my own. I was the 1 principle. After I learned who I was and what I was about, low and behold, I found the perfect mate. We interacted and became diversified. Diversification is represented by the number 3. So there you have it, from 1 to 5, my life fits numerology’s stages.
Having brought you up to speed, now let us discuss Beck’s presentation on the five stages of grief. It starts with fear of the unknown, a change one knows is inevitable. Without knowing it, Beck told the story of my life, and I imagine a lot of Tea Party lives. Fearing the unknown, and why this had to happen to me, I placed the blame. Naturally, it wasn’t me. I’d busted my butt to do right. The second stage is anger at something that was not my fault, something I must endure. It was so unfair! How could I escape what was about to happen? Stage three is bargaining. When that doesn’t work, step four is depression. I finally accepted my fate, the fifth step. That was when I became freed, represented by the number 5, to begin working on a new life.
Tea Party members, keep this in mind: In numerology, the number 6 is conscientiousness. We are heading for the desire for harmony, a sense of balance, the desire for love and compassion. Not to worry, George Soros and company are beating a dead horse. A natural grassroots movement is on the way, the Age of Aquarius, an age of brotherhood, fraternity, and spiritual growth.
Politicians live by their numbers. You can do a lot with numbers. Through magic, politicians figure how to make you think you are getting more when you are getting less and they are getting more. “Liars figure, but figures don’t lie.” We don’t have inflation. Food and fuel have been removed from the list. This way, for two years the government entitled don’t get cost of living increases. To keep things just right, the FED is printing phony money. Through inflation, the magicians bring down the national debt.
Euclid of Alexandria, the founder of geometry, with numbers came up with astounding consequences. The Greek, Pythagoras, who studied under Egyptian priests, held that everything is arranged according to numbers. To numerologists numbers are fundamental to reality.
Because of the number of degrees the earth’s axis is tilted, as it travels around the sun, we have four seasons. The earth’s orbit has 360 degrees in it. 3+6+0=9—the highest number, then you begin again with 1. That’s fundamental. The seven day week is taken from the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. The ancients believed on earth the same as in the heavens, everything reduces to numbers.
Speaking of our bodies, from dust to dust, Jesus made a distinction in the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Heaven. The one, immaterial, our souls, the other material. First comes the kingdom of God. There is order in numbers. That order, something immaterial, is consciousness. Before anything there must be consciousness. Science has now proved it. We exist in a state of consciousness, an order made of numbers, and the same for all other life.
“And God said,” in Genesis 1:26, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” How so? Man, conscious of more than any other life form on the planet, made in God’s image, a natural explanation. However, comes the magicians to create a supernatural universe—the making of man in their image, each magician with his own image, and the mightiest being right, the law of the jungle.
From the above, we learn in the Bible story of Adam and Eve, the first man and woman, that we, knowing good and evil, are meant to live together in brotherhood and fraternity. Enter the magicians. The first man and woman disobeyed God’s command. Adam and Eve partook of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. From that time on, every child was born in sin. The only way to be forgiven was to confess our sins. The magicians keep you living on a guilt trip. You are theirs to control.
Along came Jesus, teaching us brotherhood and fraternity. Naturally, the magicians had to rid themselves of Jesus. Wouldn’t you know that they would make it our fault? Jesus’ last words were, “Forgive them, father, for they know not what they do.”
Alas, the “faithful” make me out to be the “work of the devil.” The numbers come up with other ideas about me. Numerologists say my life lesson number is 7. This number means that I’m here to use and develop my mind. Quantum physicist Evan Harris Walker, in The Physics of Consciousness, under “A God for Tomorrow,” writes, “The observer interacts with matter. Consciousness, the substance of this newfound reality that defines the observer, has fundamental existence. It is the quantum mind that is the basic reality.” Walker, through higher math than I know, reduces the universe and human beings to numbers. Being a quantum physicist, Walker understands the workings of the microcosmic universe, a state of infinite possibility. His knowledge of mathematics goes a step further than Pythagoras was able to go, as further evidence that Pythagoras had it right. Pythagoras asserted that aspects of matter made the physical universe and there existed in the universe the characteristics that make men, all coming from numbers.
Logically, numbers would come into play in human characteristics because human reason is fundamental to the law of numbers. Again comes the magicians, turning natural law into their law. Jesus had other ideas about who we are and our purpose here, which jibes with the law of numbers.
Going on the order of the universe being expressed in numbers, numerologists look for somewhere between the microcosmic and macrocosmic universes for a reason that could put our human world into perspective. The ancients have left enough information from which to build new methods of analyzing who we are and what we are about.
Einstein, with numbers, proved that everything reduces to vibrations. Vibrations are expressed in numbers. Vibrations transmit energy. In the beginning, with the Big Bang, the Bible tells us God created the heaven and the earth, and the earth was “without form, and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light, and there was light.”
Science has found that light, coming in waves, upon being observed, magically turns into particles called photons, tiny packets of energy. What we actually see is photons, which enter the optic nerve. The brain processes photons and tells us we are looking at a tree. We see and we believe. However, we see only the surface. Enter earth made magicians. Jesus called them wolves in sheep’s clothing, and further that you can’t serve two masters. Personally, I choose nature’s magic.
Earth made magicians would have you believe that God is external and that they are God’s earthly representatives. Also, they would have you believe that you should not question what God’s representatives tell you. It goes back to the story of Adam and Eve, God’s written word. I read the Bible as the moral story of man, his good and his evil, and come to quite different conclusions than God’s so-called representatives. My conclusions agree with ancient numerologists and astrologers. Unlike God’s so-called representatives, astrologers and numerologists basically all agree on the makeup of the universe. You don’t have to choose who to believe and who not to believe.
Mysteriously, after studying my Constitution; the written Constitution, not the more lately interpreted Constitution, and perceiving that voices of the past were encouraging me, I took the IRS to court. As usual, as to my God-given rights, judges looked the other way. The IRS was free to do anything it wanted to make me behave according to their interpretations of the law. I took the court record to The Palm Beach Post. A reporter learned that the IRS was above the law and asked the IRS how come it violated the law. Reluctantly, the IRS admitted it had been wrong. It got a front page story. God helps those who help themselves.
Voices of the past put me on my course of destiny. When everything should have gone wrong, everything started going right for me. At age 85, I could not ask for more. Magically, the numbers turned out right for me and wrong for earthbound magicians. The numbers say I’m able to understand the subtle workings of the universe. The numbers say we are leaving the age of earthbound magicians, entering a time of brotherhood and spiritual growth, and that I’m a voice of the future.
From the moment we are born, our souls may feel heavy because they are carrying the weight of all we have lived, loved, and learned in our past incarnations. It is only when we actively seek to work through our issues that we can lighten the load and our souls can evolve. Divesting ourselves of what no longer serves us, such as unwarranted fear, the inability to feel empathy, or self-limiting behaviors, are just some of the many challenges we may face in this lifetime. While some issues we face are easier to deal with because they are the final remains of residue from a past life, other issues offer greater challenges because we are meant to work through them throughout this lifetime.
Often, we expect ourselves to recover quickly from difficult or painful circumstances. When we do not or cannot, we may feel emotionally inept or hopeless. The evolution of the soul, however, is an ongoing process that can take many lifetimes. It is a matter of accepting that even when we do our best there are going to be situations, people, and outcomes in this lifetime or the next one. The more you release in each time,the more you grow and the more your soul will evolve.
Although it is not always possible to work through all of our issues in a single lifetime, it is important that we confront what we are called to face in this life and do the work we need to do. It is also important to remember that the most effective way to let your soul grow is to be will do this work for you.DOM
