ACTION

As one of the original TEA Party members, it has been thrilling to see so many millions of Americans stand up and let their voices be heard -- a first for most, frightening for some, and duty-bound for all. Our inspiration comes from a solid foundation in our heritage, the knowledge of how this great nation came to be and for which it stands. For me personally, my Grandfather (the creator of our patriotic Uncle Sam) gave me the courage to finally speak out. If he could do it so eloquently, how could I not at least try, when our country was diabolically being destroyed?

FORMATION OF 'NATIONAL TEA PARTY FEDERATION' ANNOUNCED
http://bit.ly/9OwxuL

The Tea Party is a grassroots movement that calls awareness to any issue which challenges the security, sovereignty, or domestic tranquility of our beloved nation. That seems to be a bit nebulous to some. So here is an updated Gospel.

Around 2,000 years ago, at the beginning of the Age of Pisces, a man named Jesus of Nazareth was born and declared by three astrologers to be the Christ-Child. Christ is an emblem of the perfect man. Since there is no such thing as the perfect man, the Christ-Child is said to be of divine birth, and born of a virgin. That’s alright. It is an allusion of a goal to seek.

Jesus, the man, of the belief that he was the emblem of the perfect man, went about the land trying to convince people to shoot for perfection. Jesus is said to be the most influential man who ever lived.

But Jesus, bless his heart, made the mistake of entering the Jewish Temple, the seat of authority, and turning over the money changers’ tables, the source of Jewish authority’s wealth. They arrested Jesus. It was against Jewish law to kill him, so they took Jesus before the Roman governor. Pontius Pilate washed his hands of the matter.

The hearing took place on a Jewish holiday. In order to placate the Jews, Roman authority had a policy of releasing a prisoner on this day. Jesus was placed next to Barabbas, a convicted murderer. Jewish authority was permitted to decide which of the two would be released. They chose Barabbas. Jesus received Barabbas’ punishment. He was crucified. That’s authority for you.

It is said that on the third day Christ arose from the dead. It’s a casual reminder that we are here to seek perfection. However, long after Christ’s rising, Constantine, the ruler of the Eastern Roman Empire, gathered the Christian hierarchy together for a meeting, for one thing, to decide whether Jesus was actually Christ, or a representative, the other to make Christianity the official religion of the Eastern Roman Empire. It was decided, naturally, that Jesus was Christ, the one perfect man, of divine birth. It is quite obvious that the purpose was to grant earthly authority. They tell us what we are to believe and not believe. And we repeat over and over what they tell us. They give us symbols—drinking Christ’s blood and breaking bread over the manmade conception that Jesus is Christ. We are born in sin. We must confess our sins in order to receive God’s grace. Who says? Constantine, an ancient Roman ruler. You won’t come to me, so I’ll come to you.

The Age of Pisces is fading, along with the Piscean nature. Pisceans are extremely responsive to others, and more particularly to authority. They mentally absorb what they are told. Pisceans desperately want to do the right thing, but as a rule are weak willed. The symbol for Pisces is two attached fish, one swimming upstream, the other downstream, implying duality of purpose. Pisceans have a hard time making up their minds.

We are moving into the Age of Aquarius. I’m as Aquarian as they come. The key phrase of Aquarians is “I know.” Aquarians say, “don’t fence me in.” They are extremely stubborn in their beliefs. Their ruler is Uranus. They are eccentric. They argue their positions and stir up a lot of opposition. Aquarians despise any snobbery, or hypocrisy. They operate as equals among equals. Friendship is extremely important to Aquarians. They are born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity. They are the water-bearers.

The United States was born under the sign of Aquarius, on July 4, 1776. We are moving into the Age of Aquarius. The God of tomorrow will be internal, Christ the emblem of perfection we strive to attain. America will return to the land of opportunity, replacing government guarantees, authority reduced to functionary. You can’t stop it. It is written in the stars. Instead of getting left at the switch, my friends, you might as will join us. What say you?

Hello, I would like to know what's wrong with you people? The President didn't create this climate we are in . Did everyone forget about President Bush ? Senator John McCain was part of that party. They went to WAR based on a LIE. Were was the ta party then?

My father’s act of bravery in World War I won for him the Distinguished Service Cross. He was picked as one of Pershing’s 100 Heroes. His bravery came from his ancestry, America’s pioneers.

My father, however, let alcohol get the best of him. His shame drove him inward. He never had a good word for me when I was a child. I felt unloved and could not give love.

At midlife, my second marriage ended in divorce. At the same time my business career ended. I blamed my business failure on government and took legal action.

After studying my Constitution, I went to the county law library to study the procedure for taking the IRS to court. I had a personal stake in the outcome. That gave me the authority. Besides it was in my bloodline. While studying my Constitution and legal procedure for being heard in a meaningful way, in a meaningful place, not in an IRS office, I felt that voices from the past were speaking to me, encouraging me. I had a calling to do more than fight for my own rights. What I was doing was for my beloved America.

I was later to learn that at midlife Uranus, my ruling planet, had transited in its orbit around the sun to a position opposing itself when I was born. That meant pressure to change. July 4, 1776, the birth date of the United States, meant Uranus was her ruling planet. The United States was born under the sign of Aquarius, the water-bearer to humanity. When I was born, the sun rose on Aquarius, meaning I’m Aquarius rising. The rising sign is the part of us we show the world. As we age we become more our rising sign.

In 1975, under pressure to change, I cut from the herd. I took legal action against the IRS; I bought a sailboat I named Bold Venture and set sail on the South Atlantic Ocean. For two years, I sailed the out-islands of the Bahamas, during which time the hand of God was on my wheel in a violent storm. Inexplicably, I was at my destination at my estimated time of arrival and sailed through breakers extending completely across the inlet, surfing down a wave that never broke into the inlet. My crew called it a miracle.

After my sea adventure, a second miracle occurred. Out of the blue, my soul mate for life appeared. Strangely, I knew it from the moment we met. The IRS, by the way, hung itself with its own rope. One with my experience would naturally believe he is under spiritual guidance. All of my dreams have come true.

You probably have not had America explained the way I’m explaining our reason for being here. When you read about the Age of Pisces and the Piscean nature, you know why Pisceans voted for Obama. Read about the nature of Aquarians and you’ll know why you joined the Tea Party. You have the nature of early Americans. Since the Age of Pisces is fading into the past and we are entering the Age of Aquarius, you know you’ve come to the right place. We are going to take America back.

Hi everyone, I would like to propose and Idea.

That will rejuiveinate the american spirt. Lets work with congress to pass a bill that will allow individuals to earn up to $250,00.00 a year without any goverance. Thats right no county, no state no federal Lic's. No goverance on any level that would inhibit the earning of this individual's living and persuit of happiness.

This will allow the Rebirth of America! People working and propering with out the onerous burden of gov.. It goes without saying that this would be gainfull legal work, that improves their community and themselves done safely and with dignity.

Think about the 8.4 million unemployed and what they could do if this were law now.

The goverment will still reap the rewards of this hard work in many ways. Lets make America a free and prosperous place with happy plp again. Edwin

I found my father's twin on the Internet, playing his accordian on the street for his keep. Lt. Joseph W. Smith, my father, was written up in the Saturday Evening Post as one of General Pershing's 100 Heros.

"Not long ago the Secretary of War was asked by one of the Government publicity committees to cable General Pershing and ask him if he would select one hundred typical stories of American heroism during the war. Some three weeks later General Pershing cabled the Secretary that he had assembled his board of officers which awarded the Destinguished Service medals and that they had selected one hundred representative types of American heroism."

"It should be borne in mind that there were literally thousands of instances of heroism among our fighting troops in France, and that any selection confined to so small a number as one hundred would necessarily omit more examples than it could possibly include. The one hundred exploits given are, howere, sufficiently numerous and fine to stir the blood of any American who reads thes wonderful little stories of the unflinching courage of our boys."

"Lieutenant Smith had no thought for his own safety. His was a question of saving his men from casualties. He swam across the Rupt de Mad, a small stream on September 12, 1918. Finding that when his platoon crossed the river they would be subjected to fire from enemy machine guns, Lieutenant Smith determined the exact location of those guns. He plunged into the stream in advance of his men, crossed to the opposite shore and deliberately exposed himself to enemy fire to find the details of their positions. Followed by his men, he led them in a flank attack on the nest, capturing nineteen Germans, he himself using a rifle with deadly effect. This prompt and heroic action made it possible for the entire American line to advance without losing one man."

My family's bloodline goes back to the pioneers who proceeded west along the Columbian trial. They made America the greatest bastion of freedom the world has ever known. We must not let them down.

A message to all members of TeaParty.org

A follow-up on “My Prophecy” yesterday, from iShift magazine on the Internet, today:

“A Twittering of Consciousness”

“According to a recent Retrevo Gadgetology Report, almost half of social media users say they check Facebook or Twitter sometime during the night or when they first wake up. Nearly 50 percent of those under 25 don't mind being interrupted by a text message during dinner. Celebrities Kim Kardashian and Soulja Boy make up to $10,000 for a sponsored tweet. At an estimated 50 million tweets a day and rising, there is significant upside! Are these the signs of a technology drawing us closer and closer together toward an experience of immediate and shared consciousness, or simply the extension of a fragmented collective psyche onto a wider and more visible stage? “

“Several colleagues of mine have written eloquently on how the evolution of social technologies such as Twitter and Facebook is mirroring our essential interconnectedness. In a piece last year titled "The Spiritual Importance of Twitter," Stephan Dinan wrote "I'm now convinced that Twitter is part of the spiritual evolution of our species. Its growth corresponds to the accelerating spread of a global consciousness, one in which...we are increasingly in touch with our sense of 'oneness' with others." Steven Vedro, ruminating on his blog Digital Dharma about both the challenges and evolutionary engine of the Twitter-verse, believes that "the 'ambient awareness' that is emerging within Twitter circles can be extended beyond the subconscious knowledge of what one's friends are up to into an actual mindfulness practice...and to something even more powerful: the 'seeing-everything-all-at-once' consciousness where one is a node on the network, and simultaneously the entire web itself." (See also Vedro's 2007 piece "Our Evolving Global Brain" from Shift magazine.)”

“Then there's the viewpoint of the person who responded to Dinan's article with, "When I start to read stories of how the advertising industry continues to work its way into all new realms of technology and social media...what I see is the dominant paradigm on a path of inexorable infiltration and take over...'Be here now' has been supplanted by 'be digital now,' and I'm not sure this constitutes an evolutionary breakthrough. One could argue that this is merely another enviroscape for the monkey mind to bounce through." To wit: the response thread that follows ultimately ends up in a discussion on the best price for Velcro sneakers.”

“In his book Wisdom 2.0: Ancient Secrets for the Creative and Constantly Connected, Soren Gordhamer takes the middle road. He acknowledges the negative impacts of a ubiquitously wired and always-on world, citing various studies that show how our collective addiction is playing havoc with our health, our creativity, and the depth of our personal relationships. But with the right tools of inner technology, he says, one can safely navigate both worlds. (See, for example, "Keeping Twitter Relevant: The Art of Unfollowing.")”

“Putting this theory to the test, Gordhamer has organized the Wisdom 2.0 Conference, taking place in the heart of Silicon Valley from April 30 to May 1. High level execs from Google, Zappos, Twitter, Facebook and elsewhere will mingle with Zen Abbott Joan Halifax, neuroscientist Phillipe Goldin, and a variety of "spiritual living" digital entrepreneurs to discuss how to find balance in our high-speed, techno-saturated culture. Will our consciousness merge and co-evolve with these effervescent, unrestrained technologies, struggle to keep up, or simply drop out of range?”

Take heart, we are bringing the kicking, screaming world to the marvelous future.

The chamber was filled with a joyous throng,
Awaiting their illustrious chief.
And then he appeared with his toothy smile,
And spoke with his usual charm.

She turned to her neighbor and softly sighed,
There’s riches where he comes from.
But he’s bought and paid for not to lead,
Though he lives in a mansion grand.

We’re only birds in a guilded cage,
A beautiful sight to see.
You may think we are happy and free from care,
We’re not though we seem to be.

‘Tis sad when you think of the wasted lives,
For we cannot long survive.
Our youth was sold for a pot of fool’s gold,
We’re birds in a guilded cage.

(To the tune of A Bird in a Guilded Cage)

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the President, Senators and the House of Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the President, Senators and the House of Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States."

I did not mean to come off as heavy handed in my previous blogs. Please excuse my horrible behavior. I am not actually that way. My opinion of doctors is that we should examine and question everything. I do not condone murdering anyone. I did not want to sound prejudiced, it is that we need something to stop illegal immigrants from coming here and staying; and when they are not able to find work and then making the taxpayers pick up their bills. I pay my own way, they should too.

If there is anything I can do for the Party, please email me. I can be extremely useful when it comes to contacting our government reps. I can make phone calls and send faxes; whatever I can do to help.

The world we knew a hundred years ago could not imagine our world. The momentum is rapidly increasing. Nearly 20 years of hard work by hundreds of people have made a dream machine come true. Today, the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, in Switzerland, has delivered its first high-energy particle collisions to quantum physics experiments. The new data will give us an unprecedented tool to understand the Universe we live in, all the way back to the first instant of its existence. Time and space separate events, but we’re going to know the original event that happened 15 billion years ago, and what followed, adding to our conscious awareness, significantly shrinking the universe, and enlarging our presence.

Add to this awesome scenario, the current shrinking size of our world. Not to mention goldbricking staff using the company computer to view porn, or chit-chat, there are always those who refuse to carry their part of the load, networking is bringing economic growth, as well as communication that uplifts us to a greater level of understanding. Exploding connections are bringing about sudden shifts, tearing apart old laws of wealth. Billions of thoughts passed along are manifested in manufactured objects. Value in scarcity is becoming value in plentitude. The more computers we build, the cheaper they become, and the more useful, too. Once a thought gets wired, spreading like a prairie fire, the whole scene changes. Them that’s got shall get. The momentum is overpowering. The individual grows in stature, government control freaks shrink. We are on the way to decentralization. The Tea Party is on our path of destiny.

If entrepreneurs come up with more and more of value, the more plentiful they are, the more valuable things are given away. Microsoft gives away its Web browser. Government takes in order to give. Private industry gives and makes a profit. The cheaper it gets to replicate things, the closer we get to insignificant cost. Networking solidifies a pathway, allowing the free flow of ideas and evolvement. Giant corporations are hardwired in order to optimize. They will start disappearing like dinosaurs. Innovators will keep the ball rolling. The only one to worry about productivity will be the robot. We’ll be free to run our own show.

Progressive government will be thought of like the feudal system. The past and present are linking and moving the world to self-government, found in my dictionary under the word “anarchy:” a theory that regards the absence of all direct or coercive government as a political ideal and that proposes the cooperative and voluntary association of individuals and groups as the principal mode of organized society.

We are on an Aquarian adventure, folks. Love and peace will prevail.

Yet the timeless in you is aware of life’s timelessness

And knows that yesterday is but today’s memory and tomorrow is today’s dream

And that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling within the bounds

of that moment which scattered the stars into space.
