Words of Truth
With the help of the government, the Coronavius is destroying the United States of America.
Without question, considering the devastating impact the virus was expected to deliver to our nation, a bold, intelligently implemented plan was unfortunately needed.
America has cooperated in stunning fashion, particularly in the way they have relinquished, temporarily, our rights and freedom.
America is winning the health battle, but is now losing handily the economic part of this war. And that has got to stop. NOW!
It is time to move beyond the myopic view of health being the only factor dictating our actions. We need to consider the economic ramifications, which are staggering. If we don't reopen right quick, we may pass the point of now return.
I have empathy and compassion for those impacted by this invisible enemy, but as an old friend, Lt. Commander Spock of Starfleet Command once said, "The needs of many outweigh the needs of the few - or the one.
Indeed. Truer words have never been spoken.
Open up America NOW!

In The Face of Tyranny
It is official.
Under this administration, we have become a nation of men rather than a nation of laws, an egregious divergence from our founding.
FBI Director James Comey laid out a case of gross negligence and "extremely careless handling of very sensitive, highly classified information" by Mrs. Clinton.
Yet citing a lack of intent, which is not relevant in this case, Comey "viewed that no charges are appropriate." Charges are completely appropriate, as "Hillary Clinton checked every box required for a felony violation" as National Review's Andy McCarthy noted.
Comey's action in this matter, although not unexpected, is regretful. Thought to be a man of character by most, we can extend appreciation to Sen. Rand Paul, R:KY, the lone dissenter as James Comey confirmed for FBI post.
Obviously, there is one set of laws for the intellectual elites, and one for the rest of us,
In the face of tyranny, this must change.
First week of November would work by voting in Donald Trump for President.

Crisis Management
In the aftermath of the horrific terrorist attack in the SODO district of downtown Orlando, like clockwork, the left has unleashed an well coordinated and financed attack, not on those responsible for the attack, but on law abiding citizens of this nation.
Imagine the arrogance of this crowd, who immediately take their progressive ideology of government knows best to making tracks to steal your rights outlined for you in our Constitution away from you?
It is not just them.
Progressive republicans are sadly all too willing to join the fight.
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
What part of this do these progressive elites not comprehend?
And for those who scoff at the idea the citizenry may at some point have to defend ourselves against a tyrannical government, they identify themselves as illiterate in history.
Sen. Ted Cruz took to the floor of the Senate to call these folks out.
Cruz accurately summed it up in a Tweet.
Forget that the progressive left has no right to infringe on the rights of the citizenry bestowed upon them in the Constitution, we are at war.
Ask anyone at Pulse; the government will fall far short in their efforts to protect you. When it comes to crisis
management amidst a terror attack, you must protect yourself.
And against these ISIS fighters, that will be mighty tough to do after your government has disarmed you.

Assualt on Private Property Ownership Lurks In The Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule
Private property ownership is under direct assault from the tyrannical Obama administration as part of their efforts of transforming America and engaging in the transfer of wealth.
Property rights are without question central to the freedoms of our nation, and must be protected at all legally permissible costs. "Private property ownership is the path to building wealth and eliminating poverty".
"America became the wealthiest nation on earth in a very short time precisely because of the ability of every American to own and control their own property. Ownership produces equity – that is a process to build wealth".
It is noted HUD Secretary Julian Castro, who is high on the Democrat VP list, is a major player in these efforts and someone who places little value on property rights and individual freedom.
Private Property Ownership – the First American Right To Die Under Barack Obama’s Tyranny

“Think and Wonder, Wonder and Think.”
![]() |
Sarah Palin |
For someone liberals claim is among the idiots of our day, she sure is correct a lot, slapping around the ruling class with relentless doses of common sense.
This continued in grand fashion over the weekend at CPAC, a conservative convention held annually. Invoking the unrivaled humor of Theodore Geisel, commonly known as Dr. Seuss, Sarah Palin appropriately blasts Obamacare as the tyrannical, top-down, bureaucratic regulatory scheme it is.
There is no John Doe leader of the Tea Party, but if the Tea Party had a leader, it would be Sarah Palin. Due to inflicted damage to her by the media, she may not be able to become a candidate on the national stage herself, a real shame, but nobody carries more weight with an endorsement than Palin.
And with striking success, her candidates win.
It would be nice if the low information crowd, and those not totally consumed with Obama and his radical partners, took a hard look at the real record of Sarah Plain. They would find someone who highly values the principles set forth by our founding fathers, which is the blueprint for how our nation should be governed.
Furthermore, they would find someone with an appreciation for the rule of law, noted by her prosecution of those violating the law on both sides of the aisle. For her, all those charged with governance who violate the law should be prosecuted, not just Democrats.
Don't worry. The progressive power brokers, and the low information followers who cheer as their own freedom is restricted, will never seek the real truth. If only they could see.
Palin is a major threat to those, on both sides, who seek to take power away from the people, placing it in the hands of a tyrannical, top-down, bureaucracy. Sunshine is the most powerful disinfectant, and Palin shines brightly wherever she goes informing America about those who seek to limit freedom.
Dr. Suess once said “think and wonder, wonder and think.” Give it some thought.

Time To Change Lanes
Recently, a blog post titled Breaking The Boardwalk, was presented detailing how early hopes have most certainly been lost when it comes to Chris Christie, the boisterous governor of New Jersey.
While early on Christie had exhibited such promise, it has become increasingly clear that Christie, while certainly preferable to Hillary Clinton in a 2016 presidential campaign, is not someone who should be placed in the position to represent the republican party in 2016; or at least the republican party once commanded by Ronaldus Magnus.
Christie has found himself at the center point of a ever increasing scandal involving members of staff closing several lanes of the George Washington bridge, a very heavily traveled bridge connecting New Jersey with Manhattan. The drive by media cannot get enough of the story, as they see it damaging to who they view as the main challenger to a Hillary Clinton nomination in 2016.
Gov. Christie has denied any knowledge of the actions of his staff members, noting he was heartbroken and "disturbed by the tone and behavior and attitude" from those long time associates within his staff. It is exactly that culture, which no doubt houses Christie himself, that is troubling.
At least Christie, in a news conference, accepted responsibility for the debacle, asked forgiveness from the citizenry and sought to be received by the mayor Fort Lee, a Christie critic, to apologize, which he was in what was described as a cordial meeting. Fort Lee, by the way, is not some relay station along the Hudson, but rather a major business area, home in fact to the operations of CNBC.
Christie had previously said the bridge lane closures were part of a traffic study. So, if we got this straight, because the government needs information, easily gathered through a handful of means, lane closures causing untold discomfort, losses in time and wages, and potentially interfering with law enforcement and ambulance activities was deemed necessary.
Rather than noting the lane closures as part of this potential study, had I been the Governor of New Jersey, it would seem obvious the pain inflicted upon the citizenry far exceeds the benefit of having to acquire this information in that particular fashion. Is not everyone on board with that?
The tentacles of this story are plentiful, but most of them will not grace the front pages of the nations leading newspapers or the mainstream media news organizations.
Democrats. No, democrats and an alarming amount of republicans. No. While progressives are using this opportunity to blast Christie's potential clash with Clinton, calling his actions reprehensible, the have a blind eye to the actions President Obama, which make the bridge lanes closures look like failing to come to a complete stop at a stop sign.
Obama administration scandals such as Fast and Furious, Benghazi, the IRS targeting of conservative groups, the manipulation of economic data, NSA data collection programs and politicizing the Department of Justice are considered completely within the realm sensible political action by his progressive supporters on both sides. Have any of the above scandalous incidents been adequately investigated with any conclusions drawn? Why? Obama has said he will get to the bottom of each of these issues save the economic data, but has gave us nothing but lies, now at least verified regarding Benghazi.
What Bridgegate and the above referenced Obama administration scandals have in common is the abuse of power. As Rush Limbaugh pointed out, "whether Governor Christie or President Obama were personally aware of the abuses perpetrated on their behalves is irrelevant. On some level, they set a tone in their administrations that signaled that such hardball would be tolerated," that a culture had been established of get your enemies."
Members of Christie's staff did just that with the lane closures, drawing appropriate scorn. But, where is the public scorn for President Obama, who told his political operatives not to bring a knife to a gun fight. In addition, Obama he told supporters to "punish our enemies". His top advisor Valerie Jarrett, was clearer in commentary; “After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time,” warned Valerie Jarrett, Mr. Obama’s longtime senior adviser. “Everyone not with us is against us, and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay.”
One should keep in mind, by the way, that those "against them" are American citizens her boss was elected to serve.
While the actions associated with Bridegate fail miserably to challenge those of the Obama administration, one thing is crystal clear; progressives who view government as the answer to all the problems have no problem utilizing governmental levers upon the citizenry, no matter the encroachment on liberty and freedom, as you are insignificant to their reign of power.
This is called tyranny, as appropriately pointed out in a recent column by Dr. Milton Wolf in the Washington Post.
Glenn Beck further examines the similarities between Christie and Obama, which may come as quite a stunner to many. Take a listen:
With no lane closures impacting travel plans, the media continues to travel down all the wrong avenues. Focused on 2016, they intentionally hide the real story you should be considering in an effort to keep you from being able to adequately consider what is taking place.
Many look the other way if is one of "their" team members, apparently losing proper perspective. Certainly, a 2016 Christie administration would be much more preferable than a 2016 Clinton administration in my estimation for thousands of reasons. But, Bridgegate shows Christie is a big government politician, who thinks government, rather than the people, are in charge, and I do not have issue calling him out just because he, like me, is a republican.
Those who aim to keep the power away from the people think these actions are reasonable political operations. They are members of the ruling class, who seek to tinker with the Constitution tranferring power from the poeple to political opeartives who deem they are more qualifed and educated to make decisions for the citizenry. Those of us who embrace the founding fathers, the rule of law and the power of the people, should recognize that these are not individuals who should be given the opportunity to serve the public.
This applies to the 2014 mid terms, not just the presidential election 2016. Does anybody care?

Treated To A Trick
With Halloween fast approaching, the frightening aspects of Obamascare are coming to light for many Americans who have been living amongst the cobwebs, drowning in a sea of irrelevance while freedoms our forefathers fought and died for are being taken away.
As the website, mired in mind boggling levels of incompetence, becomes functional, additional information concerning Obamacare will become known to the low information trivial culture. Truths that are discovered, ones that many of us warned about, will be revealed and will not be absorbed kindly by those who expect a free lunch.
Obamacare is based off young workers, who rarely utilize expensive health care, to carry the load for the aged population with high health care costs. The manipulation of statistics by the administration and with criminally complicit media partners feeding the public propaganda, it is not widely known that the unemployment rate for those young workers expected to accept the burned of the costs is at historically high levels. Translation; without significant job creation in the very near future, the Ponzi scheme will fail to adequately fund itself, leading to a myriad of problems that potentially can lead to civil unrest.
Dumb asses failing to pay attention who voted in these progressive administrators of tyranny force all of us to get a government we deserve. Freedom and liberty are contracting, while tyranny expands.
Don't worry; Obamascare won't be that bad. Those who cannot make a profit on the food service on Amtrack are in charge. Big Brother will continue persecute individualism and rule for the greater good, increasingly boxing us all in.
Have I mentioned those panels of death?
Trick or Treat.

Fear Ratchets Up Nastiness
It is really getting nasty.
Those fighting for freedom are getting blasted from the progressives within both parties who in their arrogance seek to gain further control of the citizenry through expanding government.
Add FOX News Anchor Arthel Neville to the list of ill informed imbeciles who distort the facts and employ condescending ridicule to confuse the audience in effort to control the dialogue on important issues. Get a listen to the hit job on Texas GOP Congressman Louie Gohmert.
WOW! This was on FOX News Channel, if you noticed.
In some background, Senator Claire McCaskill, D:MO, recently accused Gohmert and others for grandstanding at the US WWII Memorial and of playing politics on the backs of veterans. FOX News interviewed Gohmert, placing a crawler beneath labeling him as having to respond to the allegations he was playing politics with veterans, as if he had been deemed guilty.
Never mind that is actually President Obama, despicably so, that is the orchestrator of using the veterans, who his actions dictate a loathing of, in political games. I missed the interviews with administration members calling them out for their unacceptable and anti-American behavior.
Rep. Gohmert is definitely on the progressive hit list, but it was a bit unsettling to see him attacked in such a juvenile manner on FOX News. The viewership appropriately filled out the scorecard, and we took notice.
I find it quite puzzling that those in the media continue to hammer Rep. Gohmert, Sen. Cruz, R:TX, and Sen. Lee, R:UT, for fighting against for freedom when it is President Obama and his administration that are at fault for placing the country in economic peril.
Arthel Neville demanded honest talk from Gohmert, but she skirted the truth repeatedly in effort to win points assumably for her progressive allies, which she failed miserably at doing. Please see the following points:
*Neville correctly points out public polling scores the Congress with historic lows, but fails to note that President Obama has an all time low in his approval rating as well.
* Neville is worried the "brand" of the GOP is being harmed, seemingly for not adhering to the demands of President Obama and joining forces to end the standoff. Sadly, the GOP has compromised; over and over again. President Obama and Sen. Reid, D:NV, are the ones who has stated triumphantly he will not negotiate. Since the House are the appropriators, this places Obama in a rather tight spot.
*Neville suggested the low polling was due to GOP members not doing the Chris Christie waltz with Obama. But the GOP brand has been harmed due to party leaders not standing on the founding principles of the party, joining progressive big government counterparts in aiding the decline of prosperity here in America. Those are the GOP members who will feel the wrath at the ballot box.
*Neville demands a clear resolution, failing to note the Senate had not produced a budget and that Obama has presented budgets that have not received one, not one, vote. The only clear bill would be the GOP "caving" to the demands of President Obama, which is total capitulation, an idea that would no doubt warm the heart of Ms. Neville but would in contrast to the conservative base of the GOP, of which I am a member.
The bottom line is that those in power will stop at no effort to retain it, and as evidenced by them ratcheting up the fight at every turn, from the media attacks and wreckless rhetoric of elected officials aiming to discredit and ridicule opponents to the escalated and illegal efforts in controlling citizen behavior, it can be noted their level of fear of those who aim to limit their power has them alarmed.
Fearful of losing, nudge moves to shove, which increases the opportunity for civil unrest, an event they are hoping for. As it continues to get nasty, we must continue to act in the spirit of Martin Luther King, Jr. Let them show their faces from behind the mask, and the public will see those who seek to limit freedom of and embark on tyranny on we the people.
We hold the winning hand in the end.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.~Benjamin Franklin
Don't discount Ole Ben, perhaps the most brilliant American who ever traveled the fruited plain.
In recent history, at the forefront of this discussion is the Patriot Act, passed in bipartisan fashion in the aftermath of the events of September 11, 2001.
Regrettably, I was one who was not initially significantly alarmed by this, for it appeared to me winning the Global War on Terror was critical, with the catastrophic possibility of nuclear weapons being unleashed at or in America. Efforts to combat our enemies, both foreign and domestic, seemingly would require steps beyond historical avenues of attack. I was all in.
Central among the additional avenues of intercept would be traffic utilizing the new world horizon of the Internet. The ability to institute keen surveillance over this forum would allow our military to be preemptive to attacks through monitoring the global terrorists. The advantages sounded great, but with the collapsed buildings in lower Manhattan still simmering, we forgot the keen insight of Benjamin Franklin.
In a sensible effort to obtain temporary safety, we relinquished some level of liberty. Even so, is this as bad as it may seem?
In the spirit of Ole Ben, let us recall some rather recent files in our memory bank. Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky will clue you in. Take a listen:
Written in 1949, George Orwell's novel 1984 chronicled what expansive big government control over the masses might look like in a dreary sort of way. Like most who have read the book, it seemed outlandish, something really not possible in America, home of the free and the brave.
Among the tenants highlighted in the novel were public mind control, government surveillance, collectivism persecuting individualism and perpetual war. Don't look now, but 2012 looks quite like 1984.
Regrettably, many Americans who have read the book fail to recognize what is right in front of them; a presidential administration aiming to create a culture of dependency among the society allowing entry levels of tyranny to be implemented. Under this implementation, advertised with a complicit media, the complacent public is being hoodwinked as the erosion of liberty escalates.
The Patriot Act, if memory serves me correctly, was to be a temporary measure to be re-visited annually by the Senate. Although President Obama has declared the war on terror over, erroneously I might add, the Patriot Act continues. It is worth noting that a majority warrants issued under the Patriot Act have little or no association with terrorism.
Unfortunately, the Patriot Act is far from the only thing our citizenry must be concerned with respect to big government surveillance. As Judge Andrew Napolitano points out, the Senate is currently considering further and stunning invasions of our privacy. Major private companies and government agencies track each and every key stroke while you are on their dime, but for the government to seeking intrusive measures on the American people. As the Judge noted, this would be an attack against Fourth Amendment of the Constitution.
Obviously, we are not in "1984", but sadly, our American time capsule is traveling in this direction at increasing speed, by design, driven by governmental elites who in their arrogance think they make superior collective decisions than the individual and independent thought. Tyranny over liberty.
Sadly, the lemmings re-elected President Obama, buying his false narratives and hearing his words rather than taking the time to evaluate his actions and noting the deception. History is re-writing itself, and although we thought many of our citizens had recognized Obama and his big government collective policies were wrong for America, we were wrong.
It is imperative now, more than ever, we present the facts and illustrative real world case studies on what is happening under this oppressive regime. Orwell's 1984 provides us a snapshot into that world, which represents most everything the founders of our country fought against. If we fail, we will all be living in 1984, and we will be unable to summon Crockett and Tubbs for help.

Efforts to combat our enemies, both foreign and domestic, seemingly would require steps beyond historical avenues of attack. I was all in.
Central among the additional avenues of intercept would be traffic utilizing the new world horizon of the Internet. The ability to institute keen surveillance over this forum would allow our military to be preemptive to attacks through monitoring the global terrorists. The advantages sounded great, but with the collapsed buildings in lower Manhattan still simmering, we forgot the keen insight of Benjamin Franklin.
In a sensible effort to obtain temporary safety, we relinquished some level of liberty. Even so, is this as bad as it may seem?
In the spirit of Ole Ben, let us recall some rather recent files in our memory bank. Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky will clue you in. Take a listen:
Written in 1949, George Orwell's novel 1984 chronicled what expansive big government control over the masses might look like in a dreary sort of way. Like most who have read the book, it seemed outlandish, something really not possible in America, home of the free and the brave.
Among the tenants highlighted in the novel were public mind control, government surveillance, collectivism persecuting individualism and perpetual war. Don't look now, but 2012 looks quite like 1984.
Regrettably, many Americans who have read the book fail to recognize what is right in front of them; a presidential administration aiming to create a culture of dependency among the society allowing entry levels of tyranny to be implemented. Under this implementation, advertised with a complicit media, the complacent public is being hoodwinked as the erosion of liberty escalates.
The Patriot Act, if memory serves me correctly, was to be a temporary measure to be re-visited annually by the Senate. Although President Obama has declared the war on terror over, erroneously I might add, the Patriot Act continues. It is worth noting that a majority warrants issued under the Patriot Act have little or no association with terrorism.
Unfortunately, the Patriot Act is far from the only thing our citizenry must be concerned with respect to big government surveillance. As Judge Andrew Napolitano points out, the Senate is currently considering further and stunning invasions of our privacy. Major private companies and government agencies track each and every key stroke while you are on their dime, but for the government to seeking intrusive measures on the American people. As the Judge noted, this would be an attack against Fourth Amendment of the Constitution.
Obviously, we are not in "1984", but sadly, our American time capsule is traveling in this direction at increasing speed, by design, driven by governmental elites who in their arrogance think they make superior collective decisions than the individual and independent thought. Tyranny over liberty.
Sadly, the lemmings re-elected President Obama, buying his false narratives and hearing his words rather than taking the time to evaluate his actions and noting the deception. History is re-writing itself, and although we thought many of our citizens had recognized Obama and his big government collective policies were wrong for America, we were wrong.
It is imperative now, more than ever, we present the facts and illustrative real world case studies on what is happening under this oppressive regime. Orwell's 1984 provides us a snapshot into that world, which represents most everything the founders of our country fought against. If we fail, we will all be living in 1984, and we will be unable to summon Crockett and Tubbs for help.
