Imagine this nightmare: you, is that you? Well a corpse resembling you is lying in a pool of its own blackened blood. Sixty-seven gaping wounds bear mute testimony to the evil that has just happened. Close friends fearing for their very lives have wisely stayed away, but acquaintances and the curious have come from all over to witness the undeniable evidence of a horror they can’t bring themselves to believe has just occurred and to satisfy themselves, “yes, yes, it’s true.”
A man speaks over the corpse telling the nation and the world that the deceased, like Julius Caesar, who met a similar fate on March 15th 2054 years ago, that the dearly departed was “ambitious” and to save the planet, had to die. It was a horrible thing to have to do, but it had to be done. It HAD to be done. He did it for them. Not only for them, but for every soul on EARTH! They have all been saved.
The words and the delivery are eloquent, soothing, HELPFUL. Soon the fear and anger that was in people’s faces disappear, they nod their heads in unison with his, he did it for us. He did it for us. We are saved. He did it for us.
That’s the plan. And it all makes perfect sense, of course.
Barack Obama, the orator over the murdered corpse, has put all his chips on the table. He is betting you and everyone else are way too stupid and too utterly unwilling to leave the comfort of your sit-com to even contemplate the truth that he’s got planned for all of us. Coming to a theater of the absurd near you, the end of the American way of life . . . the end of civilization as you know it. Tragically, it’s NOT a Hollywood production. “Mainstream Media Productions" under the benighted direction of our own congress and president are right now bringing that movie to life, your real life . . . you don’t want to learn about that now, do you? “It’s just too troubling, I don’t want to hear it,” you say, grabbing the remote and turning to “reality” TV and a bowl of potato chips to escape these words and Obama’s truth spoken over that now unloved bloody corpse . . . well, run away, run away.
It can not be said more earnestly or more accurately than this -- the U.S. Senate is now poised to plunge the dagger of environmental extremism into capitalism’s heart. And you are not alone . . . no one wants to hear it, Rajjpuut really doesn’t even want to say it. This is evil on a scale almost impossible to imagine and Americans including the progressive Democrats bewitched by the brew cooked up by Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama are themselves refusing to actually understand what they are on the verge of doing. The nightmare is so gruesome and troubling they had to change its name from “Cap and Trade” to “America’s Power Act” to sell it to themselves. How can America be forced to stare into the beast’s soul so that they immediately shake themselves awake and end the nightmare? Barack Obama is betting it can’t be done . . . that you are unwilling to do it.
The script for our little horror movie was written by a man named Maurice Strong, a Canadian multimillionaire who’s spent much of his life wrapped up in environmental causes and working for the United Nations. He is the man who chaired the first “Real Earth Summit” and believes firmly in the lies he has been propagating for two dozen years. The script is brief, here in his own words:
“What if a small group of . . . world leaders were to conclude that the principal risk to the Earth comes from the actions of the rich countries? In order to save the planet, the group decides: ‘Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring this about?’”
Unspoken is the fact that the neighboring United States is the chief offender. His own Canada is no small offender either, but the United States is the #1 boogie man. The chief risk to the planet’s survival according to Maurice Strong, Al Gore, Barack Obama and their cronies is the United States of America as we know it followed by all the industrialized nations. Your dreams and ambitions are the problem and your civilization must be killed. You now know “What? and “Why?” and “Where?” the “Who?” is American Civilization and “When?” is during the upcoming senate voting on “America’s Power Act.” There’s only one question left, “How?”
How?

At the risk of spoiling the “movie” for you let’s show a scene from near the ending, in the link above. The thirty-eight year old lie called “global warming” has been shown to be an absolute hoax. “Who says so?” The ultra-liberal London Times says so. They’re talking about the scandal that took place a stone’s throw from them at the East Anglia University “Climate Research Unit” where for over fifteen years facts have been deliberately fudged; science has been corrupted to produce a desired conclusion (the earth is warming dramatically); dissenting voices have been ridiculed and purged; the United Nations has been influenced; Al Gore has been made a hero; and you have been lied to. The London Times is so liberal that they had been running well in the vanguard for global warming for over a decade and a half. It took them twelve days after the story broke with the thousands of leaked e-mails for the London Times to research it and then eating crow to publish the story above and half a dozen other stories in a brief span. The Times was the last major European paper to publish the story. In the United States the story was broken about ten days before the London Times article above by
which is our well-known Time magazine’s online version. Good, good we’re on the ball . . . or are we?
The story immediately became the number one most popular story that Time ran that day and then became the top story on the internet after about fourteen hours. Rajjpuut, thinking there was, after all, hope for America "with this nonsense behind us" read the article carefully three times. And blogged and spread the word. It was an amazing time . . . .
And then a strange thing happened. Before its fifteenth hour online, Time’s top executives killed the story. They not only removed the story from their headline grouping . . . they made the story disappear altogether. It never happened. If interested people had not copied screen shots, even Time’s pulling of the story would NOT have been documented . . . like some unimaginable dream scenario from the book “1984” history was being changed, UNWRITTEN right before our eyes. In the five months since that removal of that headline story, not one major American mainstream media has run the story. Not ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, PBS, CNN or the big three’s cable news’ stations -- none of them have run the story. If you want to find information about the Climate-Gate global warming hoax, the story involved, you have to resort to the internet, European sources or Fox News. While Europe is dealing comfortably with the fact that global warming is a hoax, the United States has been deliberately left in the dark. That “chopping of scenes” and leaving them NOT on the cutting-room floor but immediately burning them up at 20,000 degrees by the mainstream media in America is a key part of the “How?” involved in Maurice Strong’s production. Unlike the London Times, the American media will not eat crow and run the truth about Climate-Gate. They will not even use the time necessary to investigate the story. They have jumped in bed with Barack Obama and Al Gore and refuse to run anything about them or their “causes” that will discredit them. Those fourteen first hour when Time online broke the story for Americans was an amazing time . . . for Rajjpuut it answered the question what happens if a tree falls in a forest, but no one is allowed to hear it, is there a sound made? But no roasting for the mainstream media, theirs is an easy lot. More important is the question, how did this sad state of affairs all come about?
Pre-production preparations have been going on for more than forty-three years. The chief plot motivator in Maurice’s eyes and in the minds of tens of thousands of like-minded environmental enthusiasts was the “FACT” that there were way too many people on earth taxing the planet’s resources mightily. This was a fact, NOT an opinion and anybody who differed was an idiot and deserving of scorn and ridicule. Anybody could see that and buy into it, right? That was the truth going around in the late 60’s when the counter-culture not only took anti-Viet Nam War ideas to heart but also environmentalism, even if they didn’t understand science and scientific methods very well.
The opening scene was publication of an innocent-looking little book several years earlier called “Silent Spring.” No actual science was done during the writing of the book by Ms. Carlson. Not one of the numerous hypotheses in the book stated as incontrovertible FACT . . . NOT ONE was anything close to true. Agains specious opinion was treated as FACT. There is not one documented human death from DDT; no evidence that birds’ eggshells actual DID or DO get thinner and more fragile; no evidence of harm to any life but that of the mosquito. No evidence of cancer or genetic mutation in mammals, reptiles, amphibians or fish. No problems at all, except for mosquitoes . . . or for those Africans and other tropical-dwellers who deliberately applied it directly to their own skins and to the inside and outsides of their homes: the lice and fleas that died as well as the mosquitoes.
No matter, the United Nations and the world bought the big lie hook, line and sinker. In a very brief time the strongest and least harmful pesticide the world has ever known, DDT, was banned. Since then roughly sixty million people have died unnecessarily because of malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases. Let's look at just one disease, malaria, where worldwide-deaths were cut to a bit more than 40,000 in 1970 . . . today almost two million die from malaria every year. Besides those deaths an estimated 25 million people suffer from the unending “third-day” sweats and agony associated with malaria. Of course, yellow fever and a host of other diseases each brings their own nightmares. Nevertheless, the radical green element and many just plain common folk never ever being made aware of those deaths or of the truth, were absolutely thrilled by DDT’s banning.
Once it was proved that great amounts of people would buy into pseudo-science and that even greater amounts of people just couldn’t be bothered the film preparations began in earnest. John Holdren (Obama’s “Science Czar”) and numerous like-minded folk, a few of them scientists, postulated a coming threat of massive proportions: an onrushing new ICE AGE brought about by man’s tinkering with the planet’s ecosystem. Time magazine actually ran the story on the front cover of its magazine. Ooops, about six years later we were informed, no-no, actually something else (greenhouse gasses) was the bigger problem and, indeed a huge, problem that would eventually sear the planet into lifelessness.
It was about this time that Maurice Strong and his multi-millions came on the scene as producer for the nightmare. He immediately could see that he needed a strong cameraman and charismatic director. Within a dozen years the latter, Al Gore, and within a half-dozen later the former, Barack Obama, came upon the scene to help him. Of course, the people at work on the production need to all be amply rewarded. To ensure that happening they created CCX, the Chicago Climate eXchange which has been in place for nine years now and which will only spring into action and become profitable when America’s Power Act becomes law. When that happens, within one year after the new law goes into effect all the people involved will become hundred-millionaires or billionaires but not from the grateful planet they’ve saved, but rather from their commissions (via something called CCX co-incidentally) on outright theft.
Richard Sandor, the cameraman, boldly stated on videotape that the climate-exchange business is worth $10 TRillion annually. Since the climate-exchange business is taking nothing (literally “blue sky”) and selling it as something . . . and the entire U.S. REAL ECONOMY produces about $15 TRillion annually in real goods and services we will have an economy of $25 TRillion overnight. How, you ask is that possible? Even discounting inflation, the price of everything in the economy will rise 67% (think of it his way, A. new economy = $25 TRillion. New economy is made up of $15 TRillion real economy and $10 TRillion bull sh_t economy. The BS economy can only come from price increases $10 TR/$15 TR = 67% . . . Barack Obama has said and been videotaped saying it, “implementing my policies necessitate that energy prices rise dramatically” that may be the one truth he’s spoken in the last three years). And you’ll remember, of course, that man-caused global warming is a lie, nothing but a lie, and has been a lie ever since it was first introduced. Yep, just like coughing when you smoked your first cigarette . . . your first impressions were correct: carbon dioxide isn’t that what the plants need, isn’t that how they produce oxygen? No, children, where’d you hear that nonsense, carbon dioxide is dangerous. And that’s how the American economy is destroyed how the enrichment of Obama, Gore, Marurice Strong and Richard Sandor is made into a horror movie of epic proportions.http://rajjpuutsfolly.blogtownhall.com/2010/05/02/thanks_to_media_obama,__gore_and_cronies_might_make_trillions.thtml
So that’s the nightmare and you and our way of life are the star and the victim. Good luck with cap and trade, er’ “America’s Power Act.”
Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,
Rajjpuut
Nancy Pelosi, queen of the carnival, Pelosi’sdefinition of entrepreneur: Quit your job, government will pay for your health care. I’m not laughing.
Aristotle said, “To invest the law then with authority is, it seems, to invest God and reason only; to invest a man (or Pelosi) is to introduce a beast, as desire is something bestial, and even the best of men in authority are liable to corrupted by passion.
The name Gargantua (and Pelosi), associated with an enormous gorilla, came from Garguntua and Pantagruel, a series of five novels written by Francois Rabelias in the 16th century. It’s the story of two giants, the father Gargantua, and his son, Pantagruel. It’s a satire, including much cruelty, vulgar insults, violence, and humor, with “a certain gaiety of mind pickled in the scorn of fortuitous things,” I’m informed. Sound familiar? “Put your prejudice aside,” says the author in his introduction. “All you’ll find is laughter. . .Seeing how sorrow eats you, defeats you, I’d rather write about laughing than crying. For laughter makes men human and courageous.” Right! Is it any wonder that Gargantua is the name given to an enormous beast?
Rabelias and Aristotle were prophets. Twenty-first century America, on the one hand, laughing—life is a carnival—on the other hand, crying—life is grotesque realism—the individual part of the socioeconomic and political organization crowd in vogue, it’s carnival time, folks, a mask on the face of grotesque reality.
There is nothing new about eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow you die, or laugh and the world laughs with you; cry and you cry alone. So what do we get? Gargantua. The time is approaching when the mask comes off.
The fact that the Texas Governor is blowing through so much to rent a house. Not even building equity or trying to with tax dollars!
Or the statement by Bill White that he would be willing to pay himself tax payer dollars to live in his own house.
I have a novel idea why not use your salary to pay for a residence or a portion of it like any normal American does? I am sure everyone including the security detail can come to a reasonable compromise on a suitable location.
So that leaves us with nobody as of now to vote for.
According to the Jerusalem Post website article linked above, Rahm Emanuel is eating crow for the Obama Administration. In the wake of Obama’s nomination of Elena Kagan (a Jew) to serve as a justice on the United States Supreme Court, Emanuel (also Jewish) attempted a song-and-dance for proponents of Israel including a group of Rabbis called together for a meeting at the White House. Obama, of course, did NOT attend the meeting but sent David Ross to allay the rabbi’s fears. Ross who is not religious (his mother was Jewish, father Catholic) showed more guts at the meeting in calling for Israel to abandon its nukes, if they actually have them as the U.S. is convinced) as part of a 'Nuke-free Middle East' than Obama did in feigning pressure on Iran’s nuclear development. The headline for the JP article read “Emanuel to rabbis: US 'screwed up' “ which told about 1/10 the story in Rajjpuut’s line of thinking.
This has been an important mainstream story for fourteen months now, nay, has been a mainstream story since at least the moment when Barack Obama won the Democratic nomination for president in 2008. Like the Climate-Gate Story; like the CCX-Scandal story and like Obama’s denial of a Muslim background (he was a “prize student” while attending Muslim school in Jakarta), information about Barack Obama or his policies that Barack Obama doesn’t wish to become matters of public debate are routinely sloughed-aside without further adieu by the mainstream Obama-worshipping media. Rajjpuut will digress briefly:
(The ultra-liberal London Times has run several stories exploring what all Europe already knows: “global-warming” is a hoax. Therefore any policies, especially economy-crippling, expensive policies like “cap and trade” (now they’re calling it “America’s Power Act”) which is now being debated in the U.S. Senate are hoaxes in themselves.
http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1732518,00.html (The American magazine Time online ran a BS article here on Richard Sandor treating him as if he were the Mother Teresa of environmental-capitalism. The truth is, however, begun to be found here in the four expandable charts near the bottom (just click on the ¼ arrow to see all of them one at a time): http://www.stopliberallies.com/more-on-the-ccx-carbon-trading-scandal-633.htmland the full truth is here:
http://rajjpuutsfolly.blogtownhall.com/2010/05/11/journalistic_corruption_allows_$10_trillion_obama_betrayal.thtml
and one last aim to get truth out in the case of Barack’s Muslim schooling, here’s the Muslim elementary school he attended for parts of three years 1969-71; he also attended other Muslim indoctrination earlier; Obama has said repeatedly he’s ALWAYS and only been a Christian and that he has NEVER practiced Islam or attended Muslim schooling):
http://article.wn.com/view/2010/02/05/Indonesia_to_move_Jakartas_Barack_Obama_statue/ So Obamamessiah and his administration have told us lies and are seeking to rob the American people in a ploy that will destroy our economy by raising prices of all commodities in America 67% soon after Cap and Trade becomes law and yet the mainstream American media covers not 3%, not 2%, not even 1% of these issues . . . but 0%. Back to the Jerusalem Press story which is yet another that the mainstream media are also choosing every single day NOT to cover . . . .
The larger story, of course, is how Obama has mis-treated our allies while running around bowing and scraping and apologizing to America’s enemies. Emanuel tried to bridge the gap with worldwide proponents of Israel at the meeting, saying that Obama’s administration has “screwed up the messaging” about its support for Israel over the past 14 months, and it will take “more than one month to make up for 14 months. . .” Right, they didn't express themselves as carefully as they should have . . . No, Mr. Emanuel, No Mr. Obama . . . it's NOT your words, but your actions that are causing this situtation . . . .
After Obama disowned him, in the wake of his “God-damn, America!” comment, Wright stated in a June 10, 2009 interview that he had still voted for Obama for President, despite the raging controversy. He said,"them [sic] Jews" within the administration are keeping us form speaking to each other. Wright also according to Wikipedia suggested that Obama did not send a delegation to the Durban Review Conference in Geneva, because of Jewish pressure, saying: "[T]he Jewish vote, the A-I-P-A-C vote, that’s controlling him, that would not let him send representation to the Darfur Review Conference, that’s talking this craziness on this trip, cause they’re Zionists, they would not let him talk to someone who calls a spade what it is."
Under attack immediately from the Anti-Defamation League, Wright modified his statements the next day, saying that "I’m not talking about all Jews, all people of the Jewish faith, I’m talking about Zionists." Wright also took that opportunity and endorsed the anti-Zionist books “Judaism Does Not Equal Israel” and “The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine” and said, “ethnic cleansing the Zionist is considered a sin and a crime against humanity, and they don't want Barack talking like that"
The Jewish proclivity for voting liberal has got them into problems here. On the one hand, Barack Obama appears to be willfully erasing his Muslim background and many Muslims are anti-Israel. On the other Obama has denied hearing any Anti-Semitism from Wright, even though the hate-words seem to spring unbidden to the man’s lips repeatedly. On yet another hand, Obama willfully embarrassed the Israeli Prime Minister in Washington, D.C. and both his Vice-President and Secretary of State claimed offense at Israeli policies. On yet another hand, Obama’s seemingly deliberate shilly-shallying on Iran has accomplished nothing except allowing fourteen months to pass rapidly while Iran builds its A-bomb and practices hitting targets with its missiles. On the fifth hand, Ross is telling them at the meeting that Obama is against Israel having the bomb and will seek to eliminate that capability (more stridently than he‘s thus far opposed Iranian activity in the nuke field? hmmmm).
“During the elections there were doubts about President Obama’s support for Israel, and now they have resurfaced,” Emanuel said, “But concerning policy, we have done everything that we can that is in Israel’s security – and long-range interests. Watch what the administration does.” Rajjpuut demurs . . . what Obama’s already done says it all. He has deliberately embarrased and discomfited an ally and given them severe doubts about where his ultimate sympathies lie. But truly the issue goes deeper, it goes back to Obama’s lies about his Muslim background and it goes back to the Anti-American and Anti-semetic rhetoric of Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s pastor for twenty years and yet Obama says he never heard any Anti-American or Anti-Jewish attacks in the church ever. Amazing how Reverend Wright put on his worst behavior when the cameras were on him, but never before . . . .
These things happen when you get into bed with a progressive who wants to destroy the U.S. Constitution (to “progress well beyond" that f"lawed document”) which he vowed “to preserve, protect and defend.” The token Jewish presence belies the truth, Obama is Anti-Israel at his core. Just as he hides the truth by hiding from words of truth such as “Jihad” “Terrorism,” “Radical-Islam” and “Muslim-extremists” when dealing with “incidents” threatening or taking American lives, he is hiding the truth from Jews who desperately want to believe he’s a good man and on their sides. Hitler, to his credit at least, told the truth about his anti-semetic beliefs openly . . . .
Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

DO YOU KNOW WHO IS REPRESENTING YOU?
How many members of the U.S. Congress are also members of the DSA?
How many of the DSA members sit on the Judiciary Committee?
How Many Members Of The U.S. Congress
Are Self-Declared Socialists?
Updated for the 111th Congress
The following FAQ will help clarify a few facts:
Q: What is the Socialist International?
A: It is the worldwide organization of socialist, social democratic and labor parties. It currently brings together 131 political parties and organizations from all continents. Its origins go back to the early international organizations of the labor movement of the last century.* It has existed in its present form since 1951, when it was re-established at the Frankfurt Congress. They are now headquartered in London, England.
* In 1864, representatives of English and French industrial workers founded the International Workingmen's Association in London. Karl Marx, who was living in London at the time, became the First International's dominant figure. Marx's doctrines were revived in the 20th century by Russian revolutionary Vladimir Ilich Lenin, who developed and applied them – and we all know that what was started as a labor movement ended up as the biggest totalitarian/communist state, i.e., the USSR.
Q: What is the Democratic Socialists of America [DSA]?
A: It is the largest socialist organization in the United States, and the principal U.S. affiliate of the Socialist International. Their website is http://www.dsausa.org/dsa.html
Q: What are seven principles behind what the DSA's calls it's "Progressive Challenge?"
Dignified Work
Environmental Justice
Economic Redistribution
Democratic Participation
Community Empowerment
Global Non-Violence
Social Justice.Never mind their soothing-sounding leftist doublespeak like 'Environmental Justice' (whatever that is supposed to mean) or the soft & fuzzy 'Global Non-Violence' (a euphemism for unilateral disarmament) — the DSA's self-declared principle of 'Economic Redistribution' clearly shows where these folks are coming from and exactly where they plan to take America.
Q: How many members of the U.S. Congress are also members of the DSA?
A: Seventy!
Q: How many of the DSA members sit on the Judiciary Committee?
A: Eleven: John Conyers [Chairman of the Judiciary Committee], Tammy Baldwin, Jerrold Nadler, Luis Gutierrez, Melvin Watt, Maxine Waters, Hank Johnson, Steve Cohen, Barbara Lee, Robert Wexler, Linda Sanchez [there are 23 Democrats on the Judiciary Committee of which eleven, almost half, are now members of the DSA].

Coffee - Finding Common Ground on Changing the Political Culture"
The Conventional wisdom is that the Tea Party represents the far right and the
Coffee Party Movement the left. This makes it easy to categorize and pre-judge
their respective opinions, but this over-generalization is not accurate. Two of
us, from seemingly different sides of the track, sat down to discover that what
brings us together far exceeded what divides us: Dale Robertson, the Founder of
the Modern Day Tea Party. And Paul Silver, a member of the Coffee Party
Movement and other campaign reform groups. The core beliefs of the Tea Party
are Fiscal Responsibility, Limited Government, and Free Markets. The Coffee
Party wants to promote cooperation in government, recognizing that the federal
government is not the enemy of the people, but the expression of our collective
will. The principles are quite general.
We found each other when Dale was mentioned in an article on possible common ground with
Democrats We started talking after that and this piece represents our personal
conversation and doesn't necessarily represent our colleagues.
First, we agreed that the inflammatory conflicts between conservatives and liberals are
mostly a proxy war promoted by special interests (insurance companies, banks,
trial lawyers, unions, etc) aiming to manipulate public opinion and public
policy. A predatory special interest cannot admit that it wants to dilute air
and water regulations, so it backs a candidate willing to carry their cause
with the well-funded argument that over-regulation is hurting our national
competitiveness and ability to create jobs. Unions might make similar
arguments.
After laying a foundation of common ground we found that we were not that far apart on most
other issues. To be sure, there were areas of disagreement, but we think there
are areas where reasonable people can disagree and the appropriate grist for a
representative government free of special interest manipulation can exist. As
our conversation meandered, we saw some level of consensus on many
things—nonpartisan redistricting, the need for comprehensive immigration
reform, sensible gun control laws, deficit reduction.
We agree that the solution is a new campaign system that helps to neutralize the financial influence
of predatory special interests--the Fair Elections Now Act. With Fair
Elections, public office is more accessible to citizens without wealth or
connections to it. We want to expand speech and replace a handful of bundlers
with thousands of small contributors. Fair Elections would allow members of
Congress to focus on the needs of their constituents, instead of worrying about
their next campaign check.
We share distress at the Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United v. FEC that threw out
decades of common sense restrictions on corporate and union electioneering.
Members of Congress already spend too much time raising campaign cash, giving
constituents and the policy-making process short shrift. Now with the added
fear of political reprisal from deep-pocketed special interests, the
fundraising pressure will only increase. Congress’ first response, the DISCLOSE
Act, doesn’t go nearly far enough to fix this broken system.
No doubt we will find more areas of agreement as we continue to talk.
Our country faces many challenges and there are differing views on they should be
confronted. We may come from different backgrounds, but we both agree that
members of Congress must start doing the work for which they were elected—to
represent us. That won’t happen as long as they have to spend so much of their
time dialing for dollars.
This is what two average citizens, looking from what at first seemed like different points
on the political spectrum, discovered about ourselves when we looked past first
impressions and simplistic media analyses. We were both relatively centrist
when we got into the meat of the issues - sometimes liberal sometimes
conservative. But certainly more aligned than the media would lead you to
believe.
What Liberals Need to Understand about Exactly
What Progressives are Threatening to Take From All of Us
On the national scene are three classes of people proving themselves most important right now within the wide-ranging debate tearing our government and our nation apart and the “scorekeeping within this public debate as resolved at the ballot boxes. These three major classes are the Constitutionalist or Conservative; the Liberal; and the Progressive. The formerly important “Moderate” has all but disappeared. At present it appears the Conservative force is attracting a huge national following in fiscal-matters owing to the nation’s runaway spending, deficits, and national debt and the growing opposition to Progressive programs to expand government. The Progressives seemingly (having the votes in the House and Senate) are calling all or virtually all the shots in law-making and spending. The important law-making they control includes burdensome taxes; expAnsive new expEnsive programs that impinge upon individual freedom and the free markets and place the government into the dominant realm of our nation’s activities rather than in its naturally-expected realm of being subservient to the people’s wishes. The feeling of the Conservative element is that the Progressives are running roughshod over the country and the Constitution. Where formerly there was a Moderate element, now tinges of Moderation are found in the tiny proportion of liberals who vote bi-partisan opposition to the President’s sweeping programs but no real moderation is found, mainly polarity. The Democratic Party under the gross and ill-advised Progressive leadership of Pelosi, Reid and Obama and their loyal followers has unquestionably moved the nation into deep socialist waters. The underpinnings of this socialism is a powerful forcible re-distribution of wealth: that is, THEFT.
A. The most basic principle of our American government is freedom. The American experience, the American constitution and the spirit of America are tied to freedom. That means the citizen is in charge of the government and not the other way around. Liberals tend to see the citizen as the always available FUNDING Source for the federal legislators. Progressives see the citizen as an obstruction, a bump in the road to their efforts to create (their version of) a perfect world. There are only 17 specific powers allotted to the federal government by the government and there are ten amendments (the Bill of Rights) limiting the power of the federal government over both the states and the individuals. All too often lost in the nonsensical arguments raised by Progressives (those who see the Constitution as “flawed” and who say we “MUST PROGRESS BEYOND” the Constitution), is that there is a gross difference between rights and needs. We all have needs and it is our own responsibility as individuals to employ our rights and our self-will to take care of those needs. The “NANNY-STATE” advocated by Progressives sees an unending number of basic needs (they call them rights) which the Federal Government is OBLIGATED to fulfill . . . the cost of fulfilling this cradle-to-grave catalog of needs is the loss of our real rights and our real freedoms to the increasingly powerful all-controlling federal government.
B. Rights are not negotiable they come to us from God and not from the government; they belong to the individual as our basic inheritance for being human. Rights are NOT needs, however. For example, there is no natural right to health care; no natural right to have the government bail you out if your business fails; no natural right to the resources of others just because you are needy. Taking resources such as money and labor or goods by legal force from the individuals and the individual states** is theft. It is power from the barrel of a gun used to hold up some citizens for the benefit of others. The federal government has no right to deny freedoms to any group of people to advance the well-being or to benefit others. There is NO natural right to EQUALITY, except the equality of opportunity. The Federal Government has an obligation to defend the freedoms of each and every one of us and to protect us when our rights are violated but no right to force all of us into equality of means. Freedom means equality of opportuntiy to be free, it does not mean forced equality.
C. The most basic rights and freedoms protected by our Constitution against the infringement of the Federal Government are the freedoms guaranteed by the 10th Amendment, the last Amendment within the Bill of Rights and clearly the most important. The Obama administration has willfully stomped all over the 10th Amendment while stomping all over the American Dream on the one hand and willfully ignored their obligations under the Constitution. In other words, they have done everything that they shouldn’t do, and very little (for example, protecting our borders) that they are required to do. In fact, according to a leaked document in the news today, they are plotting to within nine months make 13 million illegal aliens into citizens because they believe that they will receive 80-85% of those new citizens’ votes and will be permanently locked-into the halls of power. This cynical attempt at permanent power, they say, is based upon the fact that our Immigration laws are “broken.” Over 220 years our immigration and naturalization laws have faithfully served the nation. They cannot be changed willy-nilly to benefit one political party over another, they must be amended in the Constitution and only in that may they be changed. The cynicism and Marxist grab for power of Barack Obama constitutes the single most damming threat to our nation in its 221 year history.
That is the most important thing that Liberals need to understand and that Progressives want to steal from all of us: our American freedom and the Constitutional American traditions that have made this the greatest most powerful and most just nation on earth by eternally defending and renewing our freedoms to pull from each of us the intrinsic strength that Americans has thrived upon for over two centuries.

** right now Obamacare will temporarily ease the Medicaid burden upon the individual states, however, that changes quickly and the increasing share of Medicaid forced upon the states by Federal Medicaid requirements commanded by federal law will in due course bankrupt each and every one of them.

(The Associated Press) “We The People demand the best candidate.” In my view, “We the People” don’t yet know whether we are afoot or horseback. Of course, when I read the same stuff you people read I march to the beat of a different drummer. Consider this:
After my departure from my old life in the spring of 1975, and after my two year sabbatical on Bold Venture, my 37 foot sloop, after my two years in the South Atlantic Ocean, my astrological chart began to fit. It didn’t before my departure. I’m going to explain why. First of all, I’m Aquarius Rising. That means I’m seen as eccentric—stubborn in my far out of the mainstream beliefs. Before my departure, I went with the flow. Now, I’ve been told, I’m a rock in the stream. Who needs my kind?
My second marriage failed and my 25 year business enterprise, as well. There was nothing left but to change. Coincidentally, my astrological chart indicated that at the time of my change that the pressure would be great to change.
I knew nothing about astrology when I made my change. Since then, I’ve learned that one’s Rising Sign is an astrological term for when the sun rises on one’s life. It is calculated by taking the place and exact time of one’s birth, for the sun travels across the earth’s surface and approximately 900 m.p.h. Because I was born at 4:51 P.M. C.S.T. in Houston, Texas, astrologers calculate I’m Aquarius Rising.
I bought Jeanne Avery’s The Rising Sign and turned to “Aquarius Rising.” Avery wrote that I may be “the person to bring back information that has been lost to civilization for centuries.” In an earlier blog, I mentioned that my sailing experience was in the Bermuda Triangle. I’m reading Time-Life’s Mystic Places. I read about an individual’s time warp experience in the Triangle. I wrote about my time warp experience. I’m thinking about what Avery wrote about me—bringing back information lost to civilization.
Mystic Places tells about megaliths, massive upright stone monuments, the most famous of which is Stonehenge, near London. Megaliths are pre-historic. Not only is what they represent a mystery, but how they were moved. They are often placed over high radiation areas, and as well in areas of high magnetism. Our planet is surrounded by a magnetic field, part of the universe’s electromagnetic force. Occultists visiting said sites are prone to experience mild hallucinations. It is thought that pre-historic people marked said sites as having healing power. In fact, medical science treats broken bones with electromagnetism. Said sites are thought to be markers for astronomical events. Stonehedge is known to be lined up with six other megaliths, it is thought for astronomical purposes. Not one word, though, about my thought. Pre-historic people were conscious of more than modern people of the workings of the universe.
It is well known that if we are without one of our senses the other senses are enhanced. My aunt was stone deaf for years. An operation restored her hearing. The world of sound was unbearable to her. She had to wear earplugs for a time. My father told me he had rheumatism so badly when he was a young man that he was walking with the aid of crutches. His landlady hid his crutches. He was forced to go to work without them. He never used them again. With all of our contrivances, are we not dulled to the workings of the universe in our ability to cope?
In America, all those contrivances give us a chance to do more than work most of our lives for a bare existence. In our leisure time, we watch TV and play computer games. We entertain ourselves. Encouraged by government, we go deeply into debt buying racy cars, boats, gadgets, twice the home we can afford. It is all good for the economy, we’re told. Who is going to pay the bill? Something's wrong. It doesn't add up.
But if it isn’t fun, it’s not worth doing; it isn't worth thinking about. Perhaps, unconsciously, environmentalists want us to get along without so much, but unfortunately they are being manipulated by self-serving politicians, the same politicians that give us all manner of crutches. Environmentalists just don’t get it. They are looking for external answers. I reason that instead of being so things oriented, we should be looking within and doing what we know is best for us. Who with a public voice is saying that? I don't hear it.
This brings me to my awakening in 1975. My anger at my government caused me to read Edward S. Corwin’s The “Higher Law” Background of American Constitutional Law.Corwin’s essay caused me to go to the county law library and study my Constitution, and the procedure for taking the IRS to court. I had a personal stake in the outcome. But wouldn't you know, everyone I knew at the time thought I’d lost my mind. Where have you heard that you have a personal stake in the outcome and you, yourself, can take the IRS to court? To the world, I was a lousy tax protester, a nutcake.
The IRS made a mistake. I was overtaxed and the IRS refused to correct its obvious mistake. The law your representatives wrote says you have to go to the U.S. Tax Court to get the mistake corrected. Most people don’t. It raises a lot of revenue. To many, anything that raises revenue is good. It gives government more money to hand out. I went to Tax Court and got the mistake corrected. In violation of the Tax Court order, the IRS once again mistakenly confiscated my property. Understand that the government is always mistaken. We, the people, break the law. To many, it is good that government can do no wrong, especially bureaucrats. Both the U. S. Court of Appeals and the U.S. Supreme Court saw nothing unconstitutional in the repeating IRS mistakes. The federal judiciary is activist. The Constitution is whatever they say it is. To many, that’s, good, those who feel they are benefitting at another’s expense.
I filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court on the IRS’s repeating mistakes. The court decided to hear me. The government admitted that it had “wrongfully” taken my property. My property was dutifully returned to me. The IRS then went to my bank and took every cent in my checking account. The IRS is permitted to make limitless mistakes. The U.S. District Court refused to reopen the case. I was told I’d have to file a new complaint.
The “law” in the United States, with the consent of the majority of the American people, those who feel they are benefitting at another’s cost, allow the IRS to make limitless mistakes. I took the court record to The Palm Beach Post. The Post was ignorant of that fact. The Post had not thought about it. I showed a reporter my court record. With my court record in hand, the reporter went to the IRS and said, “how come?” The IRS was forced to admit on the front page that it had made numerous mistakes against me. There was not one peep from anyone, proof that many Americans think it is good what the IRS is doing to taxpayers; that is, the half who pay no taxes. All the IRS admission of limitless mistakes did was to make taxpayers more afraid of the IRS. To many, that’s good. And who wants to hear “my problem.” Thanks to the American people, it took the IRS only two years to make a mistake against my wife, and refuse to correct it. To many, just think good and everything will be alright. Just give the politicians a chance. They will make everything right.
Have the American people fully awakened to the fact that their government is a gangster in disguise? I think the American people are burying their heads in the sand. Think of the world you people are leaving your children. What are your children going to think of you when the day of reckoning comes? We’ve a long way to go and a short time to get there.

Amazing! Retired missionary, now running for the CA State Senate. Am I qualified? I certainly know how to vote "No" on an unbalanced budget, so maybe in the view of the Liberals, I am not qualified, but then that one thing makes me more than qualified then all of them in my mind.
This is a very interesting education and a much bigger undertaking than I had imagined. No wonder most express reluctance to run for an office. And then there are are the two formerly unknown big questions that suddenly loom....(smile) "What if I don't win?" and the other (even bigger smile) "What if I do win?"

An Open Letter to Concerned Christian and Conservative Citizens
of California of any Party or Ethnic Background:
My name is Warren Willis. My wife of 46 years passed away and I have recently remarried. We have 20 grandchildrenbetween us and I have two that are fifth generation native Californians. Igrew up in LA and taught school here for several years and then joinedCampus Crusade for Christ. After 44 years, 25 as a missionary in othercountries, ten in Outer Mongolia, I recently retired.
I am presently president and founder of the California School Project. Our purpose is to promote God, theBible and Prayer in the California public school system. You can see ourwebsite at "californiaschoolproject.com." I have put togetherthe following with the permission of our CSP Governing Board.
It seems to me that the crisis in the State of California has reached mammoth proportions. There is an enormousfiscal crisis, a dire directional crisis, an alarming moral crisis, and acritical cultural crisis. The State has come under the control of a majority ofmen and women who have pushed the government to the brink of bankruptcy, havetaken God and the Bible out of the schools and polluted generations of studentswith decadent dictums, and have turned the hearts of the people and our culturefar from the Living God of the Bible, from America’s Founding Fathers andfrom the U.S. Constitution.
Responding to the web letter of the lady in Arizona, “Will someone please stand up!," We dedicate this3-week old PAC to her. I believe that it is time for us to take action and toget into this arena. Obviously we have neglected our civic duties long enough.
I believe that the present situation calls for Biblically dedicated, politically conservative, characterproven, special interest unconnected, Christian men and women to stand up andto run for the available seats in the California State Assembly and Senate inthe 2010 election. In order to simply balance the budget, we believe thatnearly all of the present incumbents would need to be replaced.
If God has been speaking to you about running and you agree with our standards, we would love to have you tojoin our team. If you can't run now, who do you know that would be a goodcandidate. Please call them and forward them this material. February 25this the final day to register. That is 20 days from today! We will help youregister and run. Remember……. Daniel 4:17b.
Very Sincerely,
Warren Willis, Chairman
Where is the Homeland Security money for New York City?
The city has been waiting six months now, still in the pipe-line !
If not us, then who? If not now, then when? These are reasonable questions for everyone who has eyes to see the state of our country. We have a chance to do something here that has not been done for nearly two hundred years and no one has to fight and die, or even shed one drop of blood. Even though our "Tree of Liberty" does indeed thirst, we are the logical choice for change in Washington and if we don't make that change, we have no reason to shout fowl play, or ever again say we are fed up with the same old, same old in Washington. Oh sure, we can sit on our laurels and allow a do nothing congress continue to reek havoc with our Rights and our Liberty, but if we continue to do so we have no one to blame but ourselves. And in the end ask yourself this one question: After all is said and done in this and future Novembers, if I had picked up the phone and made just one or two phone calls, could this have made the difference? Could I have spoken to my friends about helping to make a change? And when we look way off into the future and see where America is, believing you are safe in your bed at night, and you will be for a time, until you hear the thugs coming to drag you away because you dared to speak against the government. Then look between this time and that, with your Rights gone and your Liberty no more and repeat the words "If not us, who? If not now, when?" and ask yourself if it is possible to change the course of history in these United States? Then look to your children and grand-children and ask yourself if the "American Dream" is theirs to know and love as it was when you could have helped to make a difference and didn't.
As I sit and watch the different news broadcast and hear them call the members of the Tea Party all sorts of names like racist, bigots and extremists, knowing full well that these hurtful words are spoken at the behest of the congressmen and women who are afraid of losing their jobs, I have to say that we must be doing something right. When we, a grassroots movement, can put fear in the most powerful body politic in the world, can influence the outcome of elections, then we do indeed have a chance to make change that really does count for real change in Washington. And so what if we don't get it right the first go-around? Just keep in mind that we have national elections every two years and eventually we will send people to congress that has the will of the people in their minds and that we will be watching them. So lets rally the troops, talk to people, make phone calls, get people registered to vote and make sure they have a ride to the polls if need be. If not us, who? If not now, when? Remember, ONE VOTE AT A TIME MAKES CHANGE HAPPEN!!!
and I know theres only a few,
We do what all of our brothers did,
for the glory of the red, white and blue.
You may be asked to take a stand,
to see if your honor is true,
and wave old glory high and proud,
for the Republic could be calling you.
The road looks bleak and old glory looks worn,
and patriots are looked at with scorn,
but have no fear for our stand is dear,
and our Republic will ever endure!
