Hello, my name is Sean Kraft, and I am an American.

It’s now more important than ever to say so boldly. We have been saying it for 230 years, and for the last hundred years, Socialists have deliberately tried to make being an American out to be a shameful thing. They have been pushing to convert us all that time. And in this latest push, they are succeeding.

Therefore, I hereby execute the Declaration of Independence as a certificate of redemption. I declare myself independent of this now Socialist government. And anything they or their apparatus’ does to me, I’ll consider an unprovoked assault.

If anyone desires to understand why, you can hear my reasoning now.

LEFT and RIGHT
First, and very importantly, I don’t believe in the Left/Right political spectrum. It began with where people sat it British Parliament, and then in the 1930s and 40s it was applied to the Communists and the Nazis. Commies on the left, Fascist Nazis on the right. The problem with this is, they are both bad guys. Having bad guys on the left and the right, forces me into the middle. So I view the political spectrum with every bad guy in history on one end, and good people on the other.

Also, fascism and communism are just different forms of Socialism. USSR stands for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republic; and Nazi comes from the National Socialist German Worker’s Party. Socialism is a political philosophy, and every branch of it goes on the same end of the political spectrum. And further, Socialist have long labeled American Capitalism, as Fascist. But since Fascism is a form of Socialism, this is not possible. Socialism is the opposite of American Capitalism, and they couldn’t be farther apart on any political spectrum.

WHAT IS SOCIALISM?
Socialism is an economic system where major elements are centrally controlled in government. But since that economic control is only a means to an end, Socialism means much more than this.

In the broader definition is the politics of power-hungry-control-freaks who economically disarm and obligate people, and make them dependent. Whoever does this, controls people. That’s what slavery is, and that’s what Socialism is at its core. To Socialists, the law exists only as a means to force others out of their comfort and security.

Now that both of these Socialists are on one end of the spectrum together, there are many more similarities to confirm that they are where they belong. Where funds and the law are concerned, they both use tax revenues to support party power and build systems of legal controls.

Concerning the people, both Communists and Nazis hate certain races and religions, especially Christians and Jews. They both outlaw God and institute state religions. They are utilitarian toward human life. They invented the idea of Eugenic Population Control, which they practice especially on the old, the infirmed, the ill and the unborn by sterilization and abortions, either by choice or by force. They commit mass exterminations and re-education to alter the political views of up-coming generations.

The difference between Socialism and Capitalism is like the difference between being wet and dry.

Just 10 of many synonymous to Socialism are:
central control of the economy, the Iron Curtain, secret police, killing fields, gulags, re-education, concentration camps, political officers, informants, and “the state”.

And 10 things in antimony to Socialism:
pleasant accommodations, freedom of movement, of association, speech, religion, the press, trust in government, prosperity, food, and smiling.

The worst synonyms for Capitalism? Greed and imperialism, and not much else.  And these are really just accusations that are attributed to the whole of Capitalism. Hardly as synonymous to the average American as those for Socialism. Socialists run out of accusations very quickly.  And now they can’t move on to their accusation of ‘fascism’, because I just took it away and put it where it belongs. With them.

Fascism means government partly controls the people through corporations. Socialists call companies like Exxon and Walmart “fascist”. But not companies like GE, GM. And while Exxon and Walmart are not in bed with government, GE and GM are. Socialism creates and thrives under these kinds of societal lies.

On the individual level, voting to ban pesticides in foods in no way makes a person a Leftist Communist, nor does voting for gun rights make someone a Right Wing Fascist. The current political spectrum shoves square pegs into round holes. It simply doesn’t work. Socialism belongs on one end, and Capitalism on the other. The old Left and Right utterly fails us, and I reject it.

Socialists have long told us that big corporations are often heartless, money-hungry machines that suck in, abuse and spit out the little guy. And if you’ve read “my demise” on notthistime.net, you’ll know I can’t disagree. The Socialist answer has always been for us to give control of the people to government. But to be an American is to not give control of anyone, to anyone, but themselves.

To control, or not to control. That is the question. And the righteous American answer is freedom.

SOCIALISTS NAMES
Not that it’s been taught much lately, but it is historical fact that Socialism has been imposed by misanthropists and busi-bodies. Spiteful secular humanists create and justify its deeds. Sadists and perverts use it to do things to people behind locked doors. With it’s measures, power hungry control freaks march people around and demand obedience. And it’s victims are forced to sing hymns to placate the insecurities of egomaniacs.

And the number one thing Socialist are famous for is murder. 150 million in one hundred years. This poses a problem for today’s Socialists.

Needing to avoid this fact, they are always calculating names. They are always in marketing mode, giving everything a theme. Soviet Russia created half the committees in the UN with names like “The World Peace Council”. With 60 million in their own mass graves, they tell the world they are peaceful.

They originally organized under words like Socialist, Worker’s, Labor, People’s, Democratic, National, Republic or sometimes two or three of these. But since Socialism’s most glaring deed has been murder, today’s Socialists call themselves the saviors of Bambi and Thumper. Socialism has no credibility.

They are always making their names sound softer or more noble. The “Intercollegiate Socialist Society”, became the “League for Industrial Democracy”. “Zero Pop Growth” is now “Population Connection”. They have to avoid accurately identifying themselves, while still accomplishing their goals. And they do the same to their policies and practices.

“Population Control” is now “Reproductive Freedom”.

Imposing “a heavy progressive income tax” is now “patriotism”.

The “abolition of private property” is now “habitat preservation”.

“Equal liability of all to labor” is now, the “right to work”.

FRONT ORGANIZATIONS
Despite having the worst history of any political system, Socialist today still have a fascination with the worst version, Communism.

Communism is an embodiment of evil the deeds of Socialists. So long ago, they invented what they called “front-organizations”. They’ve created thousands of these organizations over the last 60 years. And with a great many names that are soft and gentle, sounding nothing like the Communist form of Socialism, front organizations are everywhere.

Each, like a fishing line with a different twist on their bait. Most of these have only a couple of people behind them who continually seek government funding. And when one of these front-organization begins to make progress toward the Socialist goal, all other Socialists begin to support it.

Joseph McCarthy, HUAC and the Hollywood black lists caused Communist in America to lose a lot of ground. Consequently, they had to creep in even more slowly and with much more stealthy names and policies. This they did largely through Environmentalism and Progressive Socialism. Descriptions and perceptions have been made deeply frustrating.

ENVIRONMENTALISM
So we’re clear. Being of sound mind and body, I’m saying that the failed communists of the 60s went to environmentalism, and all its branches. They invented the idea of us all living in biospheres under control formats like the Peter Plan and the Habitat Agenda. The liturgy includes animal liberation and species preservation. They have long been in the business now of derailing nuclear energy, restricting us from our land, and access to our own fuel resources, over regulating the automobile, making converts of our children to earth worship, and inventing world environmental emergencies like global cooling, global warming, and just plain old climate change.

Saving the environment is the great worldwide excuse for implementing Socialism. And all of their reasonings, they never debate. In accusing an SUV driver of selfishness, they never address their true goal of stripping him of the freedom to traverse the land in a capable 4x4.

PROGRESSIVE SOCIALISM
Progressive Socialism, normally just called Progressivism, is enormous. And of course it is partnered with the Environmental excuse.

Progressivism is the increase in Socialism, based on millions of excuses. In it, they largely rely on creating and using victims, and accusing honest people. The voting blocks of minorities that they keep oppressed, they use like cattle, while they stab their fingers at prosperous employer’s hearts. And after all the power they accumulate in this, the people they claim to save are never better off.

HYPOCRISY
When people realize what’s being done to them, Socialists have to back track even more. Like Greenpeace for example; it was discovered that they paid someone to slaughter a baby seal and then used the film footage to dupe people into supporting them. They hushed up the whole thing and then Socialists just shifted their support to the similar, EarthFirst! Socialists never represent anything noble, and they have no shame. They will exploit any disparity. There is no panda face too cute or mother of a dead soldier too sad. There’s no bleeding scorpion or frightened snake too outrageous to exploit.

Amongst all the tedious excuses and accusations they use, is always tremendous hypocrisy. Progressive Socialists are like college professors who are so intelligently solving the mysteries of the universe, they don’t have time to comb their hair. Socialists are so busy saving us from ourselves, that they feel they don’t have time to obey all the laws they put on us. Many things have become American that should not be. And, it has become the American way, for politicians and their friends to get away with murder.

People who dictate are dictators. People who dictate in the name of fairness, are Socialists. And one thing is for sure in their hypocrisy, they don't think themselves equal to the rest of us.

Because of Progressive Socialism, today the common man must ask permission to exercise his rights and a convicted pedophile gets excused over and over again. This is not simply the direction cultures and societies always move in, it is a very deliberate climate created by Progressive Socialists. By using the law for own their ends this way, they break the values behind our laws.

And now, having been the saviors of pandas and field mice for the last 35 years, they are telling us that to be American, is to unconditionally accept enormous burdens based on fuzzy studies, hype and fear. At this stage of this Socialist push, a study has become no more than an excuse to do something TO the people. But American government wasn’t designed to do things TO the people, or tell us what to believe, think or do. The creation of our restrained government was a deliberate attempt to keep us safe FROM these people. This is how much “progress” Socialists have made.

Government, and I now mean all government, is too big and powerfully connected. Our local and state governments are obligating us to federal government, who is obligating us to world government. In the Fascist form of Socialism, they have integrated government with big business and are now exponentially dictating all of our energy and power consumption, our transportation and communications, banking and lending, news and education, labor and wages, healthcare and insurance, property and movement, industry and commodities, and a terrifyingly rapidly increasing list of others. And they now even dictate our people’s social, political, moral and private thoughts. Like their name implies, Progressive Socialism is not stagnant, but progressive. It is not an end, it is a means to the TOTAL Socialist end.

Socialists have usurped and centralized power in America now in focus groups, figureheads, spokesmen, and staged production. All in one movement that is designed to create a Socialist state as fast as possible before they can be stopped.

CHANGING THE NATIONAL FOCUS
We’ve heard the buzzword “change” often enough. Their description, however, does not describe. It’s really the face of an attempt at changing the national focus. The national focus is the American Dream. Socialists want to change THAT dream to now be, the getting of an education on someone else's dime, and then continue on to becoming an arm of Socialism. But the true American dream is the exact opposite of this. The American dream is to become wealthy. And the reason the American dream has already changed from owning our own homes to becoming wealthy, is that it has been proven possible in our free capitalist society.

To be wealthy is to be strong. Today, Socialists are outlawing strength, by outlawing wealth. They have declared prosperity a crime, and the notion that no capitalist is wealthy by legitimate means. I’d like to point out, that no Socialist practice can make legitimate wealth for even one person. Socialists change is deeply damaging to the American dream and the way of life we have spilled so much of our blood to protect.

They want Americans to give up their dreams of becoming wealthy, just to stick it to those who have already made it. When Socialists say that the wealthy should work and pay more, we should be hearing that our right to become wealthy by our own hard work and sacrifice is over.

This movement of theirs has a number of calculated names, but it should be “Hold still America, while I do this to you.”

WEAKENING THE STRONG
In order for a thief to rob a strong man’s house, he must first tie up the strong man. Socialist movements, like the one we are witnessing now, diminish the strong by design, cutting the hair of Sampson so to speak. And they do this in many ways.

The primary mode of Socialists is “divide and conquer”. It’s something children learn in the sandbox. And many children who grow older, but don’t actually grow up, begin doing this to whole societies; pitting people against each other by class, age, race, sex, morals, religion and so on. They use envy, jealousy, hatred, intimidation and accusation, to diligently, continually, increasingly, and progressively stir up animosity between us all.

Tying up the strong man is done largely through the new laws they write. They ratchet up the screws on society by simply excusing bad behavior, and outlawing or burdening many normal things. Society is thrown into the chaos they can take advantage of. A divided house cannot stand.

Socialists can’t allow people to love each other. Selfishness keeps people divided and weakens the strong. And whether the strong are good or bad makes no difference. They’ll make them out to be bad.

DEFENSIVE OFFENSE
Long ago, if a group of farmers with spears just stuck together on a battlefield, even veteran enemies got out of their way. A porcupine can go wherever it wants. In politics, accusations intimidate people and makes them get out of the way. Like the farmers, Socialists today use barbed & throttled politics. Wherever a Socialist movement wants to go they can go, because they are barbed & throttled with something that intimidates. Anyone who opposes today’s Socialist push gets sharply pricked with a particular label. It accuses the heart and criminalizes potential thoughts. In military terms, this one is called, a “defensive offense”.

And here is a good Example of one. A barbed and throttled movement that no one can stand against:

What group has 2 million supporters, was created by lawyers dubbed “fear profiteers” for suing medical and pharmaceutical corporations out of hundreds of millions of dollars? And the group’s projects include – banning public and private smoking, promoting teen condom use, Youth in Action (an environmental activist group), the National Diversity Forum (which lobbies tax dollars to promote homosexuals in the theatre), the Bell Project (who sues gun makers and wants the 2nd and 4th amendments abolished), Justice Now (who attempts to abolish prisons and use only counseling), EarthFirst! (another eco-shock Greenpeace), the National Council of Churches (who said Jesus was homosexual), and leftist public image groups that support the Mexican Chiapas communist rebels. It’s a tax-exempt organization that receives public funds.

Who is this?

You might be surprised to know, it’s M.A.D.D.  The Socialists that have been using these women can go anywhere they want. They are using MADD to support all these other front-groups that they’ve created.

“Barbed and throttled” politics is just one of the many recipes in the Socialist cookbook.

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
The Nazi party instituted stabbing their hands into the air and hailing their beloved leader, to intimidate people into following suit. This type of political correctness is barely hiding it’s intent to intimidate.

Political correctness is not the words we use to be sensitive to sensitive people, it’s the words they say openly, or say without saying, that something bad will happen to you if you don’t fall in line. It’s the words they use to intimidate, that makes us act sensitive, and say the stupidest things like “follicly-challenged” or “undocumented immigrants”.

So while they accuse, the Barbed and Throttled Racism they are using today is barely hiding it’s intent to intimidate. And those people that Socialists are always protecting from the ones they label “racists”, how do they fare? How many groups have they lifted out of poverty with their accusations? None, because that is not their intent. People are too useful when they’re poor. Shame on Socialists for warehousing people for their politics. It’s slavery, pure and simple.

Socialists control the speech and actions of the strong by characterizing and criminalizing not just their actions but their potential thoughts. The unspoken purpose of political correctness is to intimidate and silence people from influencing others with their real thoughts as I’m attempting to do today.

A young man, once frustratingly called an agency “those damn Nazis”. A nearby co-worker spun around and scolded - “Don’t you dare use that word!”. She went on to explain that it offended her, because as a German someone once called her a Nazi and hurt her feelings. But Americans, with their blood, have earned the right to use the word “Nazi”, and we do so today to very accurately describe control freaks. The people who used it as a slur against her didn’t represent this young man, just as she should not let the Nazis represent her. But in all empathy to her weakness, instead of a display of character strength, she chose to be sensitive. And, unfortunately, in dictating what this young man could or could not say, she did not escape the label of control freak, but confirmed it.

There is a scene in the movie Dr. Zhivago, where the Communist block warden, in completely Socialist accusatory form, says to intimidate the Dr. – “Your attitude has been noticed you know. Oh, yes it’s been noticed!”

So, of the Nazi salute, barbed racism, and the block warden’s observation, which one is veiling it’s intimidation the most?

Political correctness also helps Socialists to avoid having to speak strait in civil debate. Otherwise they have to weasel around in captious arguments, stacking audiences, questions and questioners, and intimidating by shouting people down, accusing and implying, interrupting and lying to derail the truth at every turn.

There seems to be so much momentum built up on political correctness and the rest of this Socialist push that there is nothing that can really be done to stop them. But there is. First and foremost is the need to be clear and bold. Government has no business classifying me by race. The only purpose will be so that they can discriminate against me or against someone else on my behalf. Neither of which am I interested in. Political correctness is undone by courage, clarity and the use of the word “no”.

Thomas Jefferson said, "I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man."

And so have I.

STEADY PROPAGANDA
Everyone knows that the old media is completely complicit in this Socialist push. In fact, Socialsts have a continual drive to move into all venues of influence and help build Socialism. Any actions by this Socialists government today, that involves the media or communications and any other venues of influence, will either promote more Socialism or diminish their freedom loving opposition.

The freedom of the press exists to keep government in check. But since the old press is completely Socialist, they are an apparatus OF the Socialists state. Among other things, they act as a weapon. Attacking the free and the strong. And if that doesn’t work, they attack their families. The old Socialist media is a disgrace to freedom. And they should be told that we recognize them at every turn.

CRISIS CREATION
Socialists are continually creating crisis', and then presenting the solution. No matter what they claim to solve, this always increases their power.

Most of us have had an official looking little window pop up on our computer screens, that says our computer has been infected by a virus, and then it tells us to push a button to repair the infection. But if we do this, the very people who infected our computers in the first place, will then offer to repair the infection for a fee. It’s the same crisis method used by Socialists.

One recently stated publicly - “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste, It’s an opportunity to do things you could not do before. If there’s a silver lining, it is: you can do big, bold things — throw long and deep.”

How far do these crisis’ take Socialists? Among other things, it’s been used to create a climate of dependency. We Americans have been frog-boiled to accept that government has a mandate to save us from ourselves, that has never existed. Even to save us from our own feelings.

Socialist don't care about the little guy or his feelings. We're all just voting blocks to them. Today, even sexual fetishes are considered voting blocks, simply because Socialists have sought to make them so. The manipulation of Americans has been turned into a science.

Remember! The bigger the government, the more contempt it shows toward the people. And Socialists don’t desire big government, they desire all powerful, gigantic government. And since they are now blatantly ignoring the constitution, this goal is within their grasps.

BURDEN CREATION
Strength is diminished under increasing burdens. Debt, taxes, and all manner of obligations may sometimes be useful. But most of the time, it weakens us. America’s compounding national debt has fixed nothing. But it has definitely tied us down with enormous debt. Our debt is just one giant shackle. A never ending burden. And everyone knows they have no intent of ever paying it off.

The Constitution gives congress the power to “regulate” money. Socialists read “manipulate” money. Today, they literally dictate it’s value. Such power is not synonymous with a free people. Government, with the Federal Reserve can do anything they want to our economy. They can and have, by ignoring the Constitution.

Thomas Jefferson said "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."

That’s from the author of the Declaration of Independence. Mankind’s pinaccle of defiance to oppressive control.

Our national debt, should be called the “national burden”, which is now $11.7 Trillion dollars and growing.

$1 Million = a 16 foot stack of $20 bills
$1 Trillion = a 3,400 mile high stack of $20 bills
$11.7 Trillion = a 39,000 mile high stack of $20 bills
     @ $20 (mean wage) = 585,000,000,000 hrs of labor
     @ 2080 (labor hours in year) = 281,250,000 years of labor
     @ 70 (years lifespan) = the entire lives of 4,018,000 Americans
     @ 300 million Americans = 7 years labor from every man woman and child in America today. One year       
         longer than the bond-servant period of 6 years in biblical history.

Socialists haven’t even batted an eye. This national burden is considered just a beginning, by Socialists. Debt is slavery and Socialists know this better than we do. That’s why they impose it. They create debt, just for the sake of the burden it creates. And in all that money, who is going to notice if a few billions get spent to promote their party power?

TRADE
Our trade deficit is deliberately over 800 billion dollars. I say it’s deliberate because it’s completely within the government’s power to control that.

That’s almost $3,000 per American annually, not going to American businesses, but leaving us and going largely to countries that are hostile to us, like Venezuela, China, Russia, and the middle East. That’s America’s strength leaving us. Couple that with bans on America’s vast resources, and one is left searching for an economic definition. What is it called when a people are purposefully burdened to empowering their own enemies over themselves?

And what is the big unspoken reason we allow hostile countries to buy our debt? Giving countries like China the power to destabilize the greatest economy in history with a simple cash out of bonds.

TAXATION
Now in charge, Socialists will just keep spending our money and printing any more they need to undermine every aspect of our society. They are exercising an endless supply of cash to fund a million programs and groups that support their party power. They are in a position of trust, and are betraying that trust in full force. A completely unscrupulous group of people have taken the power to pen change the value of a man’s labor. Keynesian economics has nothing to do with Constitutional adherence and the principles of our founding.

Now. We have to work to make the money to build support to stand up to an overbearing government. If the Socialist government we oppose has unlimited resources, and they also control our labor, wages, savings and investments, and the value of the dollar we struggle to earn, we will be at a disadvantage to say the least.

Government has no business in the private sector. Let alone control of it.

The sixteenth amendment, the new deal and everything like them that’s followed suit, were deliberate assaults on freedom and people. It bothers no Socialists that they were enacted through spurious means. And now Americans spend more in taxes and other government fees, than food, clothing and housing combined.

Everything in life costs far more because of Socialist. The only thing they spend all of our money on efficiently, is the indoctrination of our children, the building of their power base, and scaring the hell out of everyone with the studies they use to manipulate us. Money is power. I’m not going to give Socialists any more of my money. And I’m not going to let them do this to my country any longer.

At 70,000 pages, the tax code is so deliberately complex and cumbersome, that merely paying taxes costs us $120 billion a year. A greater figure than the GDP of 72% of the world’s countries. It creates so much obligation that it requires over 110,000 IRS agents to enforce.

The people did not give Socialists a mandate to take all of our money. But Socialists have written amendments to say they can. And with it, they call stripping a man of what he earns, a righteous deed.

Socialists are addicted to Other People’s Money. The sixteenth amendment is an affront to every American, and is an attack on every original amendment to the Constitution. If we must be taxed, it has to be done in a simple, up front, limited, and uninsulting way.

Americans are free. And Socialists are anti-American. Socialists are not going to steal my children’s future, ignore the Constitution, and turn America into a Socialist state. I refuse.

CHARITY
Socialists have co-opted the nation’s charity. Taking from the labor of people to make them dependent has been the conniving, back stabbing goal of these timeless Socialists, since their beginnings. In Communist vernacular, it’s called the redistribution of, or spreading of the wealth.

They just say they are for the common man, but they are really about power. Nothing will ever equal Christian charity. Christians care for people. These secular practices of Socialist reveals the insult of their hearts. Everything that defines them makes them misanthropists.

In what Psalm does it say that taking from people to give to others is love? That loyalty to family instead of community, is discrimination? Their bible is the Humanist Manifesto. Their Psalms and Proverbs are the Rules for Radicals, and the Current Communist Goals outlined in the 1st session of the 88th Congress.

Socialists have co-opted the role of our charitable institutions, deliberately undermined families, cultures and whole populations of Americans by removing the incentives to advance through education and through the dignity and humility in the engagement of commerce, having effectively manipulated them into slavery for cold-hearted political gains.

Christian charity’s only competition is taxation used in the unloving DMV way. Robin Hood. Stealing money from one person and giving it to another, and ensuring their popularity with at least one of them.

It’s American to be charitable in deed. And not just charity, but unrivaled charity. But Socialist have made it American to take, and take and take. And do no good with it.

NEW SOCIALIST ECONOMY
This emerging ecological economy of theirs, is nothing but Treadmill Taxation. It’s the means to create the fees government will now charge us to be alive.

Does everyone understand that they’re saying that the biggest threat to mother earth, is Carbon Dioxide? It’s what we exhale. They are saying that it’s such an emergency, that we need to immediately convert to an ecological economy, where all things are subject to a government interpretation of it’s impact on the environment, that they themselves define.

An ecological economy means that anything you do that produces a measurable amount of something government says is bad, you will have to work and pay for it. We’re talking about ecological laws that will leave no product we buy, or any activity we do untouched. These ecological taxation systems will require us to work much more in order to pay to live. And since working produces a greater carbon footprint, we will also be working to pay for the privilege of working. All of these ecological laws are ultimately enforceable at the end of a gun.

Planet saving taxes will be applied to everything, because somewhere from the beginning to the end of every product, a cow farted, a plastic bag went into a landfill, or someone’s grease trap produces an odor. Prices for everything we ever buy, will largely be DRIVEN by tax burden pass-thrus.

A pack of cigarettes now costs 7.00. It’s a legal product that should cost .60. Socialists intend to do that to absolutely everything in our lives. That’s because regulations and taxes make the products cost more from seed to sales. First they create the circumstances for gasoline to reach $4 a gallon, then they tell us they need to save us from it. Apparently government can’t make fascist agents of every company all the time, but their burdens and controls on production and resources produces the same effect.

Socialists are making the leap from taxing us on a percentage of transaction, to a new system of built in taxes based on invented reasons. Tax rates will no longer be limited to cost or value, but what ever amount they say for whatever reason they say in the text of their enormous save-the-planet studies and laws.

This activity alone, effectively nullifies the free market and makes us a Socialist economy. It makes all things subject to the government’s ecological excuses for taxation and control.

America means free markets. If we lose the free markets that made her great, America’s greatness is over. Does anyone believe that Socialists don’t know this?

With unlimited taxation, monitoring and control over all products AND all consumption, AND all activity, it’s not an ecological economy. It’s the ecological excuse that will bring about our end.

Income, trade, savings, inheritance, dividends – they’ve already made taxation unlimited with these. But what I’m talking about is an unlimited system of taxation on what we use, produce and do.

They want us to believe that “mother earth” is fragile, and that humans are an aberration, a primordial fluke that is damaging her. A virus. That our own breath is endangering our own existence and the existence of everything that has a cute face. And now, we are all going to have to work and pay them for the privilege of living this damaging life. That’s a hell of a scam. “Hey, your existence is destroying my earth god. Give me all your money, and control of your life.” Does no one understand that environmentalism is a power grab and nothing more?

The Smart Home and Smart Grid technology they are now mandating, is nothing more than plugging our houses in so that everything we do can be monitored, controlled and taxed.

The American economy is NOT the greatest economy because of government burdens, but in spite of them. If we lifted all the burdensome regulations and other assorted milking systems that Socialists have already burdened Americans with, and converted to revenues from a flat consumption tax and tariffs, America would rule this planet by default for the next 200 years. The filling of needs by the social-safety-nets they have heavily burdened us with today are not guaranteed. But their decreasing effectiveness, insolvency and ever increasing burden of the people are. These milking systems are child’s play compared to the environmental and healthcare systems being foisted on us right now.

The American economy leads the world BECAUSE of free markets, and the backbone of the American people, and it has worked despite all the impositions Socialists have laid on us in the last 80 years.

And now Socialists in government propose to convert from the greatest economic free market to a hybrid form of fascist Socialism. Government and corporations, running everything and everybody. Now small businesses are out, and big powerful corporations are in, with everyone acting as agents of the government.

Everything hated and feared about heartless corporations using the common man, and everything hated and feared about government running our lives, is coming true.

But America isn't about guilt trips, or global governance, or massive taxation and massive obligation, or the tearing down of the wealthy and families. Those are the ways of communist countries. From her foundations, America is about being free. And not free in some book, but free indeed. And to be American has always been to be willing to fight for that freedom.

EDUCATION
Americans are also deeply divided and conquered through our children’s education.

Socialists have ruled education for 40 years and we’ve done nothing about it, except ask permission to take our children elsewhere. Schools turn our children against us and teach them they don't have to listen to us. They tell them there's no hope in God, and to give up and make pleasure their god.

They have convinced children that they are sophisticated enough to make their own sexual decisions, and then they celebrate the children’s decisions to become immoral. They teach them to be selfish and take no responsibility for others, except through the super-community.

They use our own money to inject their ideology into our children, and turn them away from our own cultures. Teaching them that immorality is a viable alternative to being normal. And there has been a marked increase in the immorality of America’s youth since they began. America’s children have been an educational failure the entire time. They don’t love our children, they are only using them, just as they do everyone else.

They have establish state religions in Secular Humanism, New Age philosophy and eco-theology. They’ve taught animism and spiritism, and replaced prayer with the petition of government. They have deliberately replaced modesty with what can only be described as crotch worship. We don’t have a separation of church and state. We have a dictatorial theocracy, that’s completely evangelical.

They use the law and our money to turn our children religiously, culturally, and politically to their own causes. The NEA is a completely Socialist union and has an iron grip on education, teaching 50 million American children every year.

No political group should be given access to our children in public schools, or control of their curriculum to teach a political ideology, a culture, a religion, a new morality or any social philosophy.

But they have dumbed down and sexed up our children. They have taught them how to use condoms, and taught them nothing about to love. They teach children that fairness is the noblest virtue, even if it must be imposed.

Socialists have long diminished and demonized the founders and the Constitution, especially in our schools. Young Americans don’t even understand the principles of limited government and individual freedom that we were founded on. Kids today have been told that the capitalism of our free society is bad. And they don’t understand what Socialism is or the difference is between the two. To a young person today, the 1st Amendment is about public sex and foul language.

PERVERSION
Today, a six year-old’s pant bottoms can say “eye candy” and the reasons we’re not outraged is because we’re intimidated.

For many things public, people have the same rights as you and I do. As long as they don’t cross certain lines. I don’t know exactly where those lines are supposed to be, but I know they’re not supposed to be where they have been moved to. They are continually decreasing moral public standards. I have the same right to affect culture as immoral people do. And the truth and a little courage will go a long way.

But where there’s deliberate use of the law and tax money to promote immorality and diminish moral public standards, that’s where I draw the line. Moral people are called intolerant, phobic, hateful, and bigoted.

We have allowed them to intimidated us into accepting, that there is not something wrong with immoral people, but that there is something wrong with moral people. And they have made this a principle behind the law.

With our own money, they promote things that deliberately diminishes faith in God, love of family, and family sovereignty, largely by overwhelming our young with titillation, excuses and confusion of traditional morality.

We don’t need a new era of responsibility to a super community, we need a new era of responsibility to family. And telling Socialists to shut their mouths is the first step.

They’ve told us:
-Boys should get in touch with their feminine sides;
-Pedophiles are just misunderstood;
-The 1st Amend allows people to show their genitals in public and have access to children;
-That the difference between men and women is only cultural;
-That masturbation is good for children;
-That wives shouldn't care where her husband gets his appetite, as long as he comes home for dinner;
-That children should explore their sexuality;
-That there is a pressing need for infidelity websites;
-And - “They need to learn “safe sex” because they’re going to have sex anyway”. Well they sure do now, don’t they?

This is not about progress, it's about weakening America. Yes, some married people cheat. But like I just said, they sure do a lot more now, don’t they?

Colorado recently passed a law forcing us all to allow either sexes to enter all facilities that are open to the public. They manufactured the excuse for this. They excuse every degenerate thing and label decent people as oppressive and intolerant. Having men in public bathrooms where little girls are is considered necessary because traditional moral public standards are considered unfair to people whose god is their crotch.

When they act outraged, as though the argument is over, saying ‘moral people are bad, and immoral people are their victims’, that is when they are attempting to intimidate. We get confused about how to proceed and then finally just give up. This is the battlefield we are being defeated on.

Immoral people can do all the things moral people can do in public, but they cannot use government to suppress other cultures and promote immorality to the rest of us. And especially not to our children.

CHEERING ON OUR ENEMIES
Debate and disagreement doesn’t make Socialists unpatriotic. Anti-American rhetoric does.

Socialists constantly discredit and weaken the military, they cheer on our enemies while our warriors are on the battlefield. They celebrate and actively promote the deaths of our warriors, and then they shout the numbers from the mountain tops for political gain.

Our warriors are strong and therefore Socialists attack them. To tear down the strong, they start calling our enemies our victims. “All cheer the underdog”. It’s just more divide and conquer. Socialists actively seek the defeat of our military and they avoid and diminish every victory. They don’t just allow our warriors to be called “torturers” and “murderers”, they call them this themselves. To them, no Capitalist country can ever be allowed to be seen doing well, or doing good.

In the face of very real threats of nuclear annihilation where capable governments, and very influential religious leaders are declaring war on the United States and vowing to destroy our allies, we must maintain our military superiority. And in the face of our warriors taking and losing lives on the battlefield, they should receive everything they need to accomplish victory as quickly as possible. I question the patriotism of anyone who says or does otherwise.

Because of today’s Socialists rhetoric, we’re losing track of our enemies. Was it stupid beaurocracy or malintent that allowed terrorists into the country for 9/11? Was it the intimidation of political correctness or apathy that allowed our warriors at Fort Hood to be murdered by another Muslim extremist? None of these are excusable.

After 9/11, Socialists said Americans needed to find the cause in ourselves. But they ignored the reasons given by the terrorists themselves. Terrorists religious and political leaders say that they hate America because of her immorality. Something else that has become American, but should not be.

Foreign leaders swear oaths to their gods to behead Americans, Christians and Jews and convert the weak by the sword, and the Socialists begin their diligent effort to create and validate their reasoning.

Certain Muslims hate us and resent the freedoms under our Republic because of jealousies and generational hatreds and rivalries. And they especially hate western immorality.

And just as Socialists won’t let racism die in America, they strive to keep old hatreds alive world wide. And they will never allow us to do for Iraq and Afghanistan what we did for Germany and Japan. If they don’t care about Americans, they certainly don’t care about the people in those countries.

They are putting American soldiers under international law, and subjecting them to foreign jurisdictions and prejudices. And now on the other end, they have extended the Bill of Rights to our active enemies. That bill of rights was paid for with American blood. America should never prostrate herself before anyone in the world, give her warriors over to foreign chopping blocks, or coddle her enemies. It should never criticize our own allies for defending themselves. And it should certainly not restrict our warriors, once committed. These treacheries will not continue.

When 9/11 happened, the Socialist briefly acted like patriots. They learned the Pledge of Allegiance and made sure Americans heard them say it on TV. Can you imagine what we would have done to them if they actively began cheering on the terrorists on September 12? No, they waited a couple of weeks before beginning to ramp up their anti-Americanism.

There is a time to turn our minds to the sciences and the arts. To architecture and romance. To play and relaxation. But there is never a time to let our guard down. American policy should be to never compromise our military strength. Ever.

It's American to be strong and stand up to bullies and tyrants and to protect the weak. Socialists, in the conversion of free countries, always do the opposite.

OUR ALLIES
They have long attacked our close friend and ally Israel. They are steadily abandoning her to her hostile neighbors, who have openly pledged to wipe her off the map. And they have basically told China they can have Taiwan. North Korea threatens our close friends, South Korea and Japan with nuclear technology that Socialists in America gave to them. Their armies feed on our care packages, paid for with American tax money. Poland and other east European allies have been told they are on their own in the face of Communism that has been reconstituted with American tax dollars and technology. The entire cold war existed because Socialists in America gave our nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union.

There is no evil, too evil for a Socialist to embrace.

BORDERS
We have made it abundantly clear to government that we want the border sealed. And they have shown that they have no intention at all, of stopping illegal immigration. Which makes sense since they created the crisis in the first place.

There aren’t a couple thousand illegal aliens in the US, there are tens of millions of them. And this is because Socialists in government give them the incentive to come here illegally. And if we don’t just go along with it, they call us what?

They give them voter registration cards, and a job with the local union that mobilizes people and pump lots of money and into one political party.

The opening of the borders and making us work and pay for illegal aliens is just down right mean. They take our money, and give it to foreigners before we can give it to our own children. Especially with healthcare, they are using our own money to build a voting block out of foreigners. And now we have a healthcare crisis that only government control can fix, right?

I don’t hate foreigners. And I don't fault people for coming to America. I fault Socialists for arrogantly using them to divide and burden Americans. Americans are forced into a bad situation and given a guilt trip to shut us up.

We should be asking “why is Mexico a poor third-world country, while it sits next door to the wealthiest?” The answer is, that Mexico is poor because Socialists want it that way.

Mexicans come to America because Socialists give them our money. And they are leaving Mexico because they are victims of corruption there. Mexicans are pawns. The country is unstable and there has been nothing done to stop it’s violence and corruption from spilling over into the US.

We cannot have an open door policy for immigrants. But Socialists put their hearts on the chopping block and then scream for justice. And in the chaos they create, they take control of more of our lives and property. They don’t love Mexicans and they don’t love us.

DRUGS
Coupled with the border problem, one third of Americans are on some kind of drugs. And just like prohibition, some bad people have become rich and many people have died in the drug underworld created by the war on drugs, the largest part of which is just marijuana. Something 2/3 of Americans have used and it’s something our founders grew and sold as a legal product.

And so to use a couple of arguments from Socialists themselves:

“They’re gonna do it anyway”, and “You can’t tell people what to do with their bodies.”

The war on drugs is costing us a fortune in lives and jails, and has only made drug use and violent crimes worse. We should release all the people that should be free in the first place.

POPULATION CONTROL
Socialists want us to put community before family. And in order for community to come first, the rights of the individual must begin to be ignored. This begins and ends with physical life itself.

Eugenics was developed by humanist, atheistic professors. And people like Margaret Sanger who founded Planned Parenthood, and said that black people were human waste that should be sterilized and aborted.

Population control involves giving everyone a valuation based on the level of their burden to the planet and society, and overwhelmingly involves killing babies in the womb either by choice or force.

Someone with down syndrome is not a beloved blessing from God. In the supposedly non-religious humanist theology they claim is most compatible with the Constitution, she is a burden. So are the ill, the infirmed and the elderly. It’s not called population “control” for nothing.

The ant-like super-community utilitarianism says to discard her for hers, and the greater good.

40 million Americans were put on the chopping block, in order to protect girls from back alley abortions that wouldn’t occur if Socialists hadn’t promoted and excused promiscuity with their sexual revolution, in the first place. 40 million Americans are dead, in order to save us from ourselves.

If you wonder why some in the world hate the west, think how much damage PPI and the WHO have done going around the world, telling people to throw off their cultures. Billions in our tax money has gone to do this. And now whether we have a conscience or not, America is guilty in this.

Feminist ideals, whatever merits they are said to have, are destructive to families. To Socialists, a person has no value unless they can vote or work and pay taxes. And they have convinced millions of American women that killing babies is not murder because you don’t have to look the person in the face.

Every world governance group that sits in the check line at the United Nations that’s funded by American tax dollars, has claimed there is a population crisis, and that we need to cut the number of human beings for the sake of Mother Earth. And now they are even saying they are aborting babies for the sake of the babies themselves.

They undermine cultures by promoting selfish lifestyles, and calling women stupid for having babies. They try to convince them they are oppressed, and that to be promiscuous is to be free. That to love and grow a family is to be a weak doormat.

A people, or a person for that matter has every right to increase their numbers and make themselves strong. But Socialists intend to turn the right of procreation into a privilege.

Humans are the center of the universe, and Socialists have diligently tried to change that.

PROPERTY
Since Marx and Engels penned the Communist Manifesto in the 1800s, Socialists have been taking from, or telling people what they can’t do with their own property. Here in free America, they have been getting away with this by interpreting Manifest Destiny to be a license to take any land they want, from anyone, for any reason.

They restrict us from our own public lands, in order to save insects, birds and mice and even plants. With simple pen strokes, social tinkerers now restrict our right to our own property and resources. They invented the ideas of bioregions, threatened cultivars, corridors and core reserves. And the result of this is that there are many places Americans cannot go. They have openly stated that they intend to make 35% of the US completely roadless and off limits to humans, and most of the planet the same way. And that this is only a beginning.

But they don’t give a rip about the environment, only the guaranteed effect of power that environmentalism gives them. They’re not giving insects the right to life and taking that right from humans because they love the earth. They’re not proposing that lawyers can sue humans on behalf of animals because they care about bunnies. It’s not hard to figure out why they are using them.

Socialists don’t hold our nation's energy resources hostage and force us to buy oil from people who hate us because the caribou numbers bother them. They give rights to things that have no rights and then use these new rights against us, because human rights, and especially American rights are an obstacle to their goals. Socialists have no respect for us. Only contempt. They have made us all criminally liable for the lives of animals.

Man is not subject to the earth or to animals. Animals are subject to man. And Americans are never subjects of government.

I say People first, and I refuse to acknowledge animal rights. No object or creature should ever have an equal or greater value than a man. The land is for the people and their uses. Man has the right to his property, free of imposition. And American government should attempt to get that land into the hands of Americans as rapidly as possible where it can serve them.

WORLD GOVERNANCE
Socialists have long said that their goal is global governance, and taking control of every aspect of the economy and our lives with massive obligations, monitoring and control; subjecting us to world government and diminishing American sovereignty. No matter the reasons they give the rest of us, all of their plans involve their increase in power.

They need excuses to do so, because a strong people cannot be conquered. So they take our money, and then do studies that show how important it is that they take, spend and waste more of it. They take our money and use it to control land for the purpose of restricting us from it.

One said “It is the awareness itself that will drive the change. And one of the ways that will drive the change is through global governance and global agreements.

” What he’s saying is “Where there's a whip, there's a way.”

The debate is over, and Socialism sucks.

Under the mantle of equality, they now make all species equal, and even more equal than man. “We must become servants of the earth.” “The earth doesn’t belong to us, we belong to the earth.” Bla bla bla. This is the new religion / excuse, for all they do.

Socialists are signing treaties that literally say that national sovereignty and Constitutional rights will necessarily be nullified.

What is the excuse they use to do all they do? Equality. They tell us that what we teach our children will be controlled by law, and that global government will “help” us raise them. And that children would have the right to divorce their parents.

They promise that having children will be a right. But only in the manner and amount that they allow. They will force us to live in places under enormous restrictions, all prescribed to us by dozens of levels of government that, as with all global government propositions, removes the people’s right to self defense.

The reasons for controlling us, they have manufactured in their studies. And these give them all this power to dictate their ideas of equality and the worship of mother earth. For 6000 years humans have used the earth for our needs and now Socialist are requiring a world religion of earth worship.

My children are mine, not the earths’. They are not some data or species to be computed in spreadsheets. They are the image of God walking about on the face of the earth and having to spend their lives putting up with Socialists who are continually trying to subjugate them. Any assaults on the sovereignty and freedom of my family will be met with a fierce American style defense.

I don't believe in equality. I believe in freedom.

I know it’s a stretch for this modern age to wake up and remember what it means to be free, but I’ll tell you this; this new one party system, partnering with all governments, companies and organizations, is well understood by those I’m calling Socialists here. We need to snap out of our trance! Just because there is a lot of Milli Vanilli promotion and glitter, doesn’t mean these people are harmless. They have stated openly, that they are intent on taking control. Everything, including our lives and the very air we breath, are all going to be rationed it to us for a fee, in the name of equality and fairness. And not fairness to humans, but fairness to the animals that are our food.

The Declaration of Independence outlines our right to throw off these Socialists.

Anyone who excuses and celebrate the lives and accomplishments of communist like “Che” Gueverra, Mao, Stalin, Lenin, Castro, and Kim have no business distributing a newsletter let alone running a government.

Socialists are counting on us being confused, distracted, ignorant, frustrated, apathetic, complacent, disunified and fearful. And we should do the exact opposite.

AGENTS
We should expect certain things from Socialist Agents like Acorn and their respective groups. These people are Socialist agitators, informants, enforcers and organizers.

AGITATORS
Agitators essentially attempt to instigate another Boston Massacre or convert incidents like the LA riots into another Red October. They are the ones who are willing to carry out certain unpleasant tasks.

Their mode is to create a climate of fear by exploiting incidents. A crisis that excuses their actions. If this recent incident with the Harvard professor had been staged by him, it would be a perfect example of an agitator at work.

I suggest everyone begin carrying their cameras with them everywhere.

INFORMANTS
Informants feed information back to the people who are taking control. Government already has many systems of surveillance and monitoring, with data mining, and profiling, national databases, and listening in to the internet, Rico and domestic surveillance laws, etc. The only thing needed is to say that freedom loving Americans themselves are a threat. And actually, they have already done this.

Tax regulations are more and more, making every business in America an agent of the government. We need to reverse these, not step into a new era of privacy super-invasion.

The amount of information that has unConstitutionally been made legal for them to know about, not foreign terror suspects, but the average American, is staggering. And we all know it.

And if you think we have a lot of cameras watching us on every street already, you haven’t seen anything yet.

Informants themselves though, are in the people’s faces and behind agency desks. They go about taking the pulse of the people and operating a system of intimidation, incentives and disincentives. They identify people by their attitudes toward the collective, and their willingness to conform to it.

And if you know someone who’s not afraid because they don’t break any of these laws. It’s not as though the government will run out of ink. Informants are there to glean the information necessary to craft a law that they WILL break.

It will become common for certain demographics to be characterized as being in need of restriction, restraint and control. Any complaints will be swept under the rug, or investigated by themselves. In which they will find no wrong doing.

Want-ad will sound like this: “Wanted, social program field organizer. Must be able to make tough decisions involving personal property, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the 2nd Amendment, and family sovereignty. Must be able to conduct brief psychological evaluations, and be capable of carrying a clip board and using a hand radio. No experience necessary.”

You're only going to get certain types of people to apply for this.

ENFORCERS
Today you’ll be surprised who the enforcers will be. You should know that these will be many and varied. It will consist of local law enforcement, thirty or so federal agencies from the FBI to the Department of Agriculture, dozens of federal, state and local task forces, conscripting programs and mobilization forces, and compliance divisions of every government agency. And far more activity in the US by international police.

Their job will be to enforce participation in what Socialists are calling the “New Era of Responsibility”.

ORGANIZERS
Now, organizers are there to promote party power, usually with the people’s money, they continually spread Socialist doctrine, recruit and assign talented new Socialists, organize collectives and unleash mobs. Every place where people converge will be organized by law, effectively forcing it to become an arm of Socialism. Whether it’s a school, a book club, a corporation, even social or religious groups; the New Era of Responsibility will require super-participation.

What we today call hate crimes, sensitivity training, conflict resolution managers, and community organizers are only the beginning. But these are just more softened names for political-speech-laws, re-education, and the agents I just mentioned. If you oppose anything Socialists do, you’ll be labeled and dealt with. Orwell dubbed them the “thought police”.

Acorn, mentorships, civilian national security forces, community organizers, conflict resolution managers, Americorps, the Civilian Expeditionary Workforce that was recently organized, etc. These people are agitators, informants, organizers and enforcers.

We have to deny the climate of fear to comply, where we will all be essentially turned into informants ourselves. Whatever their excuse to do what they do, the outcome will be party power. No matter what slogans they use. No matter what people or cute animals they claim to be saving, or laws they’ll quote, the objectives will be to divide, intimidate, silence and marginalize.

And when ever we see agents of Socialism, we should face them, point at them, and say, “You are an agent of Socialism.”

America. If you haven’t noticed, our saviors haven’t even been willing to discuss the type of politics they are practicing here. Let alone clearly identifying it and giving it a name. Not even in terms of the old political spectrum that serves their purposes so well. But perhaps they’ll give it a new name and call it “Saviorism”. Or “Happy-Cute-Fuzzy-Bunnyism”. Whatever they call it, it will just be another insulting kick in the crotch.

I swear on the altar of God, eternal hostility to Socialism. America will not become a Socialist state. Not this time.

Thanks for reading.  Visit my site for updates.   NotThisTime.net

There are government programs a-plenty to help those in need. Created to right wrongs in society and protect and help the little guy in America, they're often a way of making up for inequities that the law doesn't cover. And today these programs are coming out of government in clubs, hearts and diamonds.  But despite the law and these many safety nets, today I'm feeling a little like Dorothy at the moment the witch appears in the crystal ball and mocks her.

Now, I've read that Frank Baum filled the Wizard of Oz with representations of economic and political elements in the Populist Party view of America in the late 1800's. The heartless industrial workers, brainless farmers, cowardly investors and so on. Everything represents something. East, west, the water that destroys the witch, even the name “Oz” represents the ounce measurement of coinage. America's banks and lenders who regularly destroyed the brainless little guys were represented by the villainous wicked witches.

In my own search for a place where troubles melt like lemon drops, I've found that the yellow brick road has been paved over in pastels. And in following it, I've lost my way somewhere between the talking trees and the poppy fields.

When a member of A&B Mortgage Brokers of Munchkin City forged my name to a mortgage, the DA was found to be too bogged down in his workload. And so, negotiating with the broker's attorney David Lane, he settled on securing a guilty plea. But not for all eight forgeries. Only one forgery. And which of the eight, they weren't saying.

Now, despite the starkly infantile attempts to copy my signature, the Emerald Title Company (Land America) filed, insured and passed the forgeries on to the Wicked Witch of Mortgage Fraud, Argent Mortgage Co, who has paid out hundreds of millions in recent judgments. Argent paid off the old witch, and then ignored the forgery allegations since I was still making payments. Then, to my utter surprise, they sold it to the Wicked Witch of Delaware, DLJ Capital, who had her flying monkeys at Select Portfolio Servicing continue the policy of ignoring me. Now it became even more important to get a forgery conviction, and my return to Kansas (literally) for work got delayed.

When I stopped making payments, they stopped ignoring me and began running plays from the Guidebook for Wicked Flying Monkeys. Obviously the forgeries didn't represent the terms I had originally wanted, but they tried to convince me to sign them anyway. Well, I may have just crashed in a house, but I didn't just fall off the turnip truck! "Thanks, but no thanks."

And so they offered new terms. But monkeys can talk really fast, and I had to ask them to repeat themselves many times before I realized that they were really offering to only slightly change the terms. And in the mean time, they sent faxes to the DA declaring that they themselves believed the documents were forged. With these declarations the DA had his case, and the coroner declared the defense dead. Well, actually he declared it officially limping on a bunion. But monkeys never quit.

Amid my requests that the flying monkeys convert the loan to the originally intended terms, or take all and leave me free and clear, they offered to give me a ride on a horse of a different color, by re-qualifying me for a new loan. But the ride was very short. You see, the monkeys' negative reporting on my credit now disqualified me for the loan they were offering. And any other monkey's offering for that matter. I simply didn't have a banana to give them.

The guilty plea seemed to mean nothing to them. And they flipped the foreclosure hour glass over three times trying to force me to hand over the ruby slippers. The Good Colorado Attorney General of the North got wind of my predicament and took it upon himself to convince the Wicked Witch to let me and others, keep our ruby slippers. But monkeys always lie, and they told him that they and I were already working things out amicably. And then they sent the Good AG a letter, with a copy to me, admitting the forgeries again, but asking the AG to convince me to submit to their processes. Whoa! According to the laws of the Emerald City, using government agencies to influence consumers is a big no no. But it turned out to be no big deal. The Good AG didn't really notice.

Following the monkeys' own practice, I decided to record a phone conversation with the head legal monkey, who boldly stated that the AG had specifically declared to him that he had been given the authority to negotiate terms on my behalf. This I doubted very much because the AG's website states as big as skywriting that “The Attorney General does NOT have the authority to represent individual residents or consumers.” Now, either the AG or the monkey was lying. But monkeys always lie. And the AG, even though aware of this monkey business, is really too busy calling monkeys to deal with violations of the law. So nothing happened.

Finances being what they are, I started looking into the law myself, and decided to take up my axe and answer with my own suit that would require the wicked witches to show cause why the documents should not be declared invalid. However, I rusted solid in the procedures, proving only that the note was forged. The deed of trust still stood and the witches prevailed.

Predicaments demand that one looks at his options and take the best road. Now I've tried, and I've failed. If I had her crystal ball, I may have done things differently. But like Dorothy, I've had to learn things for myself. And in doing so, I've found that the brick road is winding and often forks. The wicked witch has developed an immunity to water, and in court, her midget dances around and slaps you silly with a lollipop. First they took my legs off and they threw them over there! Then they took my chest out and they threw it over there! That's what happens to nobodies who refuse to be led down dark paths and dares to stand up to the spell casting mistress of the land.

And the wizard, well, I don't think President Obama has anything in his black bag for me. And his quick getaway balloon is only built for one. So, no amount of heel clicking is going to keep me in my home. The foreclosure goes through. Now homeless, jobless, deeply in debt and with huge stains on my credit, I can't come back! I don't know how it works! I'm just going to do my part in keeping the economy going by paying an attorney to file my bankruptcy. Good-bye folks!

Un-friggin believable! The White House of the U.S. is keeping my email address on record and sending me propaganda. The email is below. This is not the limit of any kind of influence to be exerted by Progressive Socialism.

Let me remind you of one example of many glaring facts that compromise Republicans do not want to face. They try to convince us that real foundational issues are peripheral to just keeping them in power. Roe v. Wade, taxes, borders, etc. They simply look at abortion as a compromise issue to be reasoned over. Conservatives must be "reasonable" and leftists must not fight so hard to get what they want. Instead of simply being outraged that anyone would want to institutionalize abortion they give up in a dignified manner.

I recognize the Republican party is like the Father of America and the Democrats are the hormone washed mother. Whatever mom wants, she gets, and the father soothes the kids into accepting it. "Just do it kids, or I'll never hear the end of it." The very foundation of compromise is the quieting of a loud voice. This Progressive Socialism will keep coming as it has because it is emboldened by Republican compromise that's only claim to fame is an ability to slow Progressive Socialism I don't think Americans are going to accept fast or slowed socialism though. I won't.

Some of us zealots are not willing to hand our children a world of massive impositions and restrictions in their lives. We will stand up and say something. We, however few of us there are, will not accept it.

There will be a breaking point. And when that happens, either the socialists will see that they are exposed and then they will run away weeping and gnashing their teeth. They'll all move to Europe for a while and hang out with reality twisting artists. If they don't run, they will do the outrageous again. They will deputize half the population as informants and begin the enforcement that will cause a civil war in America.

They are capable of such drastic moves. This last election was their greatest haymaker. With the lowest favorability polls in history, they pulled out all the stops and decided they were going to play the people of America. They took a guy who won't even say the Pledge of allegiance, and made him President of the US. It's the greatest insult of our history. They divided and conquered. They shamelessly split the country in half. One half they hammered with accusations of racism. The other half they told two things; "Let's get rich people", and "Vote for little Frodo as he bravely climbs mount Doom against all the odds". C'mon Frodo! We can do it!

Political correctness won't let this be spoken of in the open, even by the people it has been done to. And even while the Progressive Socialists are in the position to pull it off, some still do not believe they are capable of One Giant Waco.

But they know where we all live, they have our email addresses. And let me remind you that more than half of Americans have twice now been identified, for all intents and purposes, as enemies and potential enemies of the state. Of course they retracted this when they were exposed, so we're all safe now. Turns out it was just a few rambunctious under-staffers. Darn kids.

These people are capable of doing anything and shaping the opinion that lets them get away with it. With government money paying to get the young and impressionable to vote for change, tens of millions in foreign influence money, and with an army of media promoters they made a socialist politician into a rock star.

Suckers all. That's how they look at us, and that's what we are.

Now, "reasonable" Republicans would say that we should do whatever it takes to avoid a civil war. And they have always implied that people who are not willing to steadily compromise their children's future are somehow weak minded, undiplomatic and zealously immature; and the big one; "unrealistic". Yes that is what they mean when they scold us.

Well how about if the Progressive Socialists just say outright, "Hold still while we do this to you."

What if, before every tax, every corruption, every assault on morality and responsibility, etc, they were required by the constitution to say "Hold still while we do this to you."?

How funny would the compromise Republicans feel about it then? Would it begin to gnaw on their realistic, diplomatic and very civil thinking? Or would they still vote to keep the ol' lady happy?

For those of us who are not willing to put chains on our feet, they are all beginning to look like cowards. And the more they speak, the more they become insulting cowards.

Anyone who is still calling for reason, and calm walks to the gas chambers, really, really need to wake the hell up!



from info@messages.whitehouse.gov, it came with a link to Obama's speech.

Hello -

As a Senior Advisor to the President, I'm here in Cairo, Egypt where I watched President Obama deliver an unprecedented speech calling for a new beginning for the United States and Muslim communities around the world.

We all know that there has been tension between the United States and some Muslim communities. But, as the President said this morning, if all sides face the sources of tension squarely and focus on mutual interests, we can find a new way forward.

The President outlined some big goals for this new beginning in his speech -- including disrupting, dismantling, and defeating violent extremism. It was a historic speech, and since many Americans were asleep at the time it was given we wanted to make sure you had a chance to see it:

Majority-Muslim countries around the world are filled with extraordinary people who simply want to live their lives and see their children live better lives, just as in America. Indeed, part of what makes America great is having nearly seven million Muslim Americans living here today and enriching our culture and communities.

We can extend that kind of relationship abroad. It won't always be easy, but if we make an effort to bridge our differences rather than resigning ourselves to animosity, we can move toward a more peaceful world over time.

Thank you,
David Axelrod
Senior Advisor to the President

Change – the political and economic expansion and transfer of the limited power of corporations over the finances, property and lives of common men into an unlimited power under government.

The Progressive Socialists are Right.

There's something I never thought I would hear myself say. But as of today, I am going to say that I agree with them one hundred percent about one thing. Ever since Marx and Engels penned their manifesto in the 1800s, socialists have risen up around the world to decry the gap between the wealthy and the poor, and denounce the evils of corporate greed. And with these they declare all men equal and encourage the common man to tear down the wealthy, take over the corporations and the government, and bring all under an all powerful one party rule.

Despite whatever has happened under this set of circumstances, I have to now agree from personal experience that corporations, at least enough of them for me, are inherently evil. I've watched them do evil to individuals and whole populations. Some grow to have economies that are greater than many nations. And many do this by massaging and milking consumers. They do, not what is in the best interest of consumers, but whatever practices ensure the most profits. If by their designs they cause some of us to utterly fail and crash, without codifying it, their policy deems it acceptable. Not only acceptable in the sense that they are willing to sacrifice some of us for their ends, but also in the sense that they have procedures for mitigating any problems that may follow sacrifice. Sometimes, a consumer must be dealt with. Corporations, by practice, have discovered that they can get away with many things, even while under the immediate view of the legal system.

I guess I've known of this evil all along, but my puritanical patriotism has suppressed any willingness to solidify this into a firmly held position. However, now that I have been firmly dealt with in this manner by a corporation, at least on this one subject, I'm willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with today's socialists, the Progressives, and yell “Power to the proletariat”.

Following a flyer, I refinanced my home two years ago and discovered the broker had forged my name to a different loan. I did what I thought was supposed to be done. I called everybody. The broker vanished, the district attorney had them arrested, the title company looked worried, and the mortgage company ignored me. Not completely though. They said they were investigating. Meanwhile I made payments on the forged mortgage, and blinked my eyes in bewilderment that the mortgage company was not rushing to fix the documents with me as soon as possible. I was told that “Mortgage companies do not work that way.”

While the investigation ensued, the return date to my out of state employment was coming, and I began to think I'd have to delay it in order to ensure that there was a conviction. But then I got a letter telling me that the mortgage was being sold. At that point I began to feel a little unloved. Before this assignment, I called the new note holder, and was told that they would deal with the forgeries when they received them. Both companies had me fill out fraud paperwork, and the second requested I do this nine or ten times. But nothing seemed to come from these.

By now, returning to my employment was far less important than getting a forgery conviction to be able to bring the mortgage company to the table. Problem was, I could no longer afford to pay it, and I stopped. It was then that they stopped ignoring me. While dealing with their daily calls to get me to make payments, I pushed and pushed until I got to a resolution specialists. The first thing he said was “We've got to get these (forged) documents signed.” He couldn't see me blinking through the phone. Then he suggested some new numbers. But they differed only slightly. Meanwhile, I put the DA in touch with him, who convinced him to provide a fax indicating the specialists own belief that there were forgeries. Boom, we had a guilty plea!

I started to relax. Surely now they would sit down to the table and do something to amicably resolve this. And then I could go through the update training to return to my employment. I was wrong. At their request, I submitted two loan applications that they denied. Are you ready for this? Because my income and my credit, which was damaged by them, disqualified me. This specialist and then a half dozen other specialists suggested I conduct a short sale, suggested more bad terms, even suggested I just submit myself to their full control. But my suggestions that they revert the loan to the terms I originally signed, and for them to even take my home, leaving me free and clear didn't even get a curt review. By now I had made more than eighty calls to them and spoken to nearly 30 different people.

Then began the foreclosures and the involvement of the Colorado Attorney General's office. At their request, I visited Denver to explain my predicament. And under some 'make nice' program, an assistant AG called the loan servicing company to encourage them to seek solutions. While I was fighting the third foreclosure, I got a call from an AG attorney who told me that they were glad I was working things out with the servicing agent. “Whoa! Stop.” There's nothing being worked out except the loss of my home. But that's what the servicing agent told them.

It was then that I received a cc of a letter that was address to the Assistant Attorney General. It read as though the servicing company was addressing my attorney, and it gave me instructions to follow. Now, whenever I had spoke to the servicing agent they would ask if they could record the conversation. This I discovered rarely actually happened. But I decided this is what I should have been doing since the beginning of this fiasco. I called the servicing agent specialist that had sent the letter and had a most remarkable conversation that he even agreed to allow to be recorded. In it he said that the assistant AG had told him that he had been authorized to negotiate loan terms on my behalf. He threw a few “agreed to” figures around, and then took them away again in the next breath.

Needless to say, the assistant AG was unhappy. The AG's website states “The Attorney General does NOT have the authority to represent individual residents or consumers.” And it turns out that it is a crime to use the AG's name to influence a consumer. It's also a crime to possess and attempt to enforce documents that you may have reason to believe are forged. They also violated several laws with regard to credit reporting.

I discovered a law that says that forged documents can be removed from the public record if it can't be shown that they are not spurious. I filed this on my own and had the foreclosure put on hold. But it turns out that the forgery artist is also an escape artist. The subpoena she was served was hand delivered by a stranger to the court saying they didn't know what it was.

The court day finally came, and based on the guilty plea the judge declared the note a forgery. But since the refinance paid off my previous mortgage, he couldn't declare the deed of trust a forgery, and the foreclosure was ordered. The lawyer they got was a word-smithing jackass of course, but he wasn't able to get away with all of his assertions.

And with this, the mortgage company put the finishing touches on my financial destruction. They wanted me to just keep paying the forged mortgage terms, and so they ignored and attempted to manipulate me so that it forced me to lose my employment. They ruined my credit, left me with a second mortgage and no house to live in.

There's a reason we have so many consumer protection laws. To address the problems that the socialists complain about. But I'm not ready to become a card carrying Progressive Socialist because I would just be a one-issue voter. I hate evil corporations, but I'm not yet willing to give control of my money, property, children, and my life to people who want to outlaw wealth and have their fingers deep into everything else in the universe.

Therefore I'm taking a cue from the socialists and writing my own manifesto:

Corporations have policies. So should consumers. Corporations require consumers to follow their rules and there is no reason an individual consumer's policies shouldn't be codified, and respected in the market place and in the courts.


Policy 1 – a consumer should never respond to a corporation's attempt to engage them in commerce. Consumer's are smart enough to research products and seek them out themselves.

Policy 2 – out of common sense, a consumer should never buy something they haven't sought out themselves. Most adult consumers have been called by a corporation to offer a service that begins without the consumer even understanding the policies, immediately charging the consumer's credit cards, and having the handy feature of being able to be rescinded in the future. Of course these are no more than milking programs that play the odds, knowing that people will cancel, but probably not right away, and probably without even receiving any services. If a product exists, it can be found by the consumer.

Policy 3 – a consumer should engage in commerce on their own terms. Dealing fairly, a consumer can determine what is fair and what they are willing to do and pay.

Policy 4 – corporate invoices are not any more authoritative than a consumer's notes. Many corporations illegally practice confusing policies and invoicing, inflating fees and hiding extra costs among the valid. Cell companies are famous for this because they have so many customers with constantly changing figures to regular billings. When the consumers are better empowered, simplified billing and charges will follow.

Policy 5 – a consumer should not do business with a corporation that has ambiguous terms and policies.

Policy 6 – corporations cannot be trusted. And therefore all contracts with them should be written in terms the common man understands.
Policy 7 – corporations often present themselves as caring institutions, and some may be. But they do this largely because corporations do not love consumers, and consumers know this.

Policy 8 – consumers should deal honestly with corporations.

Policy 9 – consumers should deal with corporations in a trustworthy manner.

Policy 10 – consumers should display loyalty to corporations only as long as corporations deal honestly and fairly with them.

Policy 11 – boycotting is not drastic or extreme. It is a natural part of commerce that evokes the desired changes in markets. Many lists exist on the internet. And the Better Business Bureau is a prime example of this.  We use it to discover who is bad and who is good.  It is just not intensively used.

Policy 12 – corporations do not have a problem wasting consumer's time on telephone hold, in lines, and waiting rooms. This wasted time calculated with the rates of pay must be stratospheric. We will never have that time back again. But our time is valuable, and before being made to wait for a corporation, it's not inappropriate to inform a corporation of your rate of pay for waiting.

Policy 13 – it is not illegal to record conversations as long as one party is aware of it. recording conversations protects the interests of consumers.

Policy 14 – a consumer's information is private, and when disclosed, it empowers corporations. Most transactions and lines of credit do not warrant full access to credit information.

Policy 15 – consumers should require corporations to destroy personal and private information of consumers immediately after it is used for it's authorized purpose. And a personal information policy should include severe fines for using such information for other purposes.

Policy 16 - Many industries are, by default, regulated by those who practice in them. Consumers should think of this whenever they look at a contract or purchase a product.

Suggestions

The standards for credit that corporations impose on consumers should be imposed in kind. Consumers should standardize ratings for the corporations that consumer laws are supposed to protect us from, but don't.

Consumers should consider saving and investing money, and not seeking to be in debt. Although various arguments abound in this, it is still true that a borrower is a slave to whomever he owes. Our nation's debt is going to drown our children.

Consumers should codify their practices into normalized commercial policies to be referred to when dealing with corporations. Colorado Consumer Policy 4, etc. Therefore it should be normal practice for a consumer to record a conversation with a corporation's representative where they are informed of the consumer policy that the corporation must must oppose if it does not intend to agree to it. thanks for letting me rant.>

I realize that many here at Townhall are Republican first and Conservative second (I got mostly criticism for refusing to hold my nose for McCain.) 

I get a lot of flak for being a no-compromise Conservative who doesn't think "realistically".  According to them, I'm responsible for Obama being in the White House.  It's ok.  I understand the "united we stand, divided we fall" principle.  But I don't put tradition into that mix as a trump card.  Some things you don't want to change, like meatloaf-Thursday.  But some things can change like when Tevia allowed Tseitel to arrange her own marriage.

And on that note I'd like to say, - first to Conservatives who no longer compromise their votes (hold their noses), and second to Republicans (pardon all the generalities), I'd like to point out that, as much as the left are denouncing and ridiculing Tea Parties and the rest of conservative America, they are truly hoping we get enough traction for a third party to split the Republicans.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't encourage anyone to stay Republican and have to put up with Michael Steele scolding you for having been "unrealistic".  No, I would say the opposite, if we can not (near completely) gut the Republican party and replace them with candidates who will begin rolling back the socialist and pseudo-socialist policies of the last century, then we should replace the actual party itself.

It's the damn Ross Perot effect that has me worried.  Conservatives cast the most votes in 1992, but the liberals won office because 20% of the total vote went to Ross Perot.  I know there are some who'll say we should just stick to the Republican party and just spice it up a bit.  Hire a promoter, put on a hat, change the lighting, maybe sing a few more patriotic songs.  That's what they are planning to do already.  Frankly, as a Conservative it insults the hell out of me.  Well, I'd rather give blood through my tongue.  If so many believe we should be "realistic" and keep the party strong, the answer from Republicans to Conservatives should not go "compromise, compromise, yeaaaaah compromise!"  No, it should be "help us clean house here."

The Republican Platform should be rewritten.  It should not consist of fourty-four pages of "We believe", "We affirm", "We recognize", because when the day is done and Conservatives say to Republicans that they didn't stay true to what they believe, they sound like liberals and give a bunch of excuses for why everything has been COMPROMISED.  Instead, it should read "We the Republicans will seal the border.  We the Republicans will abolish the nanny state.  We the Republicans will institute a fair tax by 2014."  Etc.  That is what the Contract With America was, only on a much lighter scale.  That's a major cause for the Republican win in 1994.

Just thinking in my "unrealistic" terms, because I'm, well, Conservative, I will zealously hold to my principles and vote my principles when the time comes.  If leftists win the next election, Republicans can blame me again, or they can blame themselves.  Either way I don't really  care.  But I'm laying out for everyone what to expect from me.  Either the Republican party gets gutted and their platform is founded on real conservative values and promises, or I go to another party that does.

If Republicans want my votes, they had better be "realistic".

Because there are many who still don't understand suicide economics:

Ronald Reagan said in 1981 that "A trillion dollars would be a stack of thousand-dollar bills 67 miles high." That means that the debt that has just been created would be equal to a stack of thousand-dollar bills reaching 737 miles high.

Keynesian economics. Fiat money. Future-value loans and debt. An economy that is largely based on a numbers-game cannot be maintained indefinitely. Why not? Here it is, as simply put as possible:

A home is valued at $60,000 based on population, buying and selling, local income, etc. but the value of the home is said to be $100,000 because it has been artificially inflated. Along with all the other homes, this numbers game increases the profits of those in the sales process when they cash-out, or buy and sell quickly.

Then to push this game even further, the homeowner is given a loan at 125% of its value. That's $125,000 for a home that is worth $60,000 in the true scheme of things. Over the course of the loan, the homeowner would pay $270,000. The more often homes are sold, the more often the numbers are fudged and the value goes up even more. If an economic situation causes people to stop buying and selling homes, the values stop increasing. Greater economic problems cause values to go down. The greater the problem, the greater the decrease in values and the burden on the homeowner to make payments.  And when value is artificially inflated, these value drops tend toward those actual values very quickly.

But the homeowner is hoping the home will be worth more than that in the future, so he can sell or refinance and maybe make a profit in the future-inflated-value of his home. This is the simplified future-values game.

Now to a bigger picture. The lender immediately sells the loan he just made along with hundreds of other loans, to another company that is also banking on the future-value of the loan. This future-values game is called "securitizing".

If one homeowner loses his ability to pay his mortgage, the purchaser of the loan forecloses, sells the house and takes a loss on their investment.

Keynsian economics (our government's economic policy) says that that foreclosure is ok because the majority of loans can be kept afloat. By a moderate but steady inflation of the costs in all markets, there is an increase in everyone's salaries, and thus the economy is adjusted to follow this numbers-game and support the increases and losses. The actual value of the home may be $70,000 next year. And this boosts the ability to increase the fudged loan value to $130,000. More people are made wealthy in these games. And they'll continue to be played just as long as we are willing to ignore the truth of the numbers with regard to the value of the products they are based on. And we are on a path to play this game just as long as some retain the power to play with the numbers.

But what if something causes many people to lose their ability to pay their mortgages? Many companies taking many losses can cause investors to try to sell their stock in those companies before they lose too much. This crisis is called "a run". If people run, others tend to do the same in other places, and when many people pull their investments out of companies, the companies must pay them. The objective of companies is to make money, not give it away. If companies give away too much money, they fail and then their people lose their jobs.

An even bigger picture. Government, though not empowered by the Constitution, has been addressing these crisis with a new numbers game. A new future-value game is created to cover the crisis that was created by a future-values game. Money is simply printed and given to support the system. This is largely done, not to keep homeowners afloat, but to keep investors investing. Because, if investors stop investing, the economy stops growing. If the economy stops growing, what people produce with their hands goes strait to their mouths. People don't buy iPods or new cars, and the people who make those things lose their jobs. When people lose their jobs, taxes don't get paid, and without taxes the military doesn't defend, bridges aren't built, roads fall to ruin. The economy (the money we make and spend or invest) stagnates or goes backwards.

The goal in this new game of course is to sooth investors into ignoring any future problems that might occur in the numbers game, and rely on the next numbers game to fix things. But with every numbers game, the risk of our economy going backwards and the irreversibility of this increases toward inevitability.

A problem with fiat money (money based on the value of nothing but hope) is what it does when it is put together with commodity money (money based on something tangible). Diamonds are worth lots of money. We'd all love to have lots of diamonds! But if suddenly ten pounds of diamonds were discovered buried on each persons' property, the value of diamonds would drop to 1/10,000th their value. And by value, I mean, how much of something a diamond will buy. Because everyone now has lots of diamonds, the value goes down, or rather, the prices of all things would go up. Massive inflation.

Imagine if every adult in America were to win a million dollars in the lottery. If you owned a saloon, how much would you charge for a beer? Four dollars? Not likely. You would charge $75 dollars for a beer because everyone can afford it. And the keg you tap to pour the beer would no longer cost you $110, it would now cost $7,500.

Having a $10,000 diamond would now mean nothing, because a loaf of bread now costs $5,000. This is the simplified explanation of the process behind the steady increased costs we see every day in all the products we buy.

The money that is printed and given to mortgage lenders by the government, is a loan to the government from the Federal Reserve (money printers, bank controllers, government partners). And because this is just a game, there is no intention of ever paying it back. But just like the homeowner's mortgage, these loans are up for sale. Now just imagine if these printed-money-loans were purchased by someone that has animosity for America. Say China, for example. These loans that China buys are in the form of Treasury Notes or Bonds. And China would have purchased these loans based on their future-value. You can buy a $25 bond for $18, and then in several years you give it back to the government and they give you $25. If $18 dollars today buys a DVD, inflation makes a DVD in several years cost $30. If the $25 I get can't even buy a DVD, I may have increased my investment from $18 to $25, but the value of that $25 is now less than the $18 used to be.

As I said, putting just-printed money into the economy drops the value of all the money. And if, like the investors, China sees the value of their investments dropping rapidly, at some point they are going to avoid a loss, and pull out their money. If they pull out their money, that means they have to get paid. Government would print more money and we would all have to pretend even more, that our money is not worth less.

If our money becomes worth less and less, soon it will become worthless. And that means China's money becomes worth more and more here in the US. That means that China could, if they wanted to, buy American land and companies at very cheap prices.

Now stick with me on this. If China owns our debt, and can suddenly demand to redeem their money, thereby dropping the value of our money and increasing the value of theirs, they could conceivably, in deliberate fashion, weaken our economy and buy up enough property and companies to take control of America. Actually, they are buying these things right now. But the game players are not really talking about it.

At present, that stack of thousand-dollar bills reaching 737 miles high is what we are pretending doesn't exist. And we have been getting away with ignoring it for quite some time. But we are now in a crisis, and this numbers game is being played with, let's say, tremendous enthusiasm. The game is kept going with even more pretense. These and other factors that are holding this game together are beginning to swing wildly. In the last six months, in their attempt to get their money before it is lost, investors have been selling their stocks. Like the depreciated bond, but now instantly, the value of the stocks people buy in companies has gone down. This is a loss of the value of our money that equals a 201 mile high stack of thousand-dollar bills. And during this present crisis, with hope to make a quick profit in the downturn, investors caused a jump of more than 10% in the whole market value 4 times. That has happened only 4 times in history. Once before the 90s recession and 3 times before the Great Depression. The economy is rocking like a cheap swing set that is overloaded with fat grown-ups, and they are making the legs come off the ground. If the timing of events become anymore synchronized, it's going to flip over. This game is dangerous.

This explanation is overly simplified. And it does not address the concerns that the fiat money used by government to artificially support failing corporations, comes with government control strings. What exactly is it called when together the government, banks, and corporations control the economy? Hmmm?

What is actually happening in our economy is not something that is openly discussed by those who play these numbers-games. Perhaps they don't want everyone to think about it.

Eliphas Levi profoundly wrote in the 1860s:

"The masses are not in need of absolute truths; were it otherwise, progress would be arrested and life would cease in humanity; ... The masses know it full well, and so they quickly desert their doctors and seek out charlatans and quacks. Some ... too often resemble the children playing at charades, who quickly turn out those who know the answer already, lest the game should be spoiled ... ."

 

Liberals overtly calculate, and manipulate groups into compromising what is right for the sake of some other spiteful or selfish goal, or to avoid some fear.  Anything to win.

Conservatism articulates values positions, educating people of its merits.

Republicans ran the presidential campaign on the former, assuming the group called “Right Wing” would still vote to preserve a sliver of a remnant of a memory of conservative principles in government.  The Palin pick tried to counter our inevitable protest.

90% of blogs addressing the Conservative sit-out were dedicated to scolding us for our zealous ignorance.  Blaming us if Democrats were elected.

The liberal tenets are the play-book again for the future in most “Remaking the GOP” blogs, where Conservatives should be realistic and fall in line.  A group.  No different than the Log Cabin Republicans.  A few banners, some choice rally words is all it should take to get us back in line while nothing really changes.

But radio voices that actually educate are still being scolded by the calculators for being extreme.  And conservatives are still fed the overwhelming message that conservatism is unrealistic and the 'mature' 'consensus' by the smart people is that compromise for the sake of the calculated numbers is the game.  

If Republicans had been conservative over the last 30 years, we wouldn't have so many compromises on security, abortion, family, taxes, government power, borders, morals, foreign influence in our elections, and on and on.  There's nothing left to conserve but the GOP itself.  Every conservative issue is on a slippery-slope.  Conservatives can now only 'hope' that one day the GOP will be in power again and won't do what they did with it the last times they were in power.

Based on how they treat us, they must calculate us in the following manner:  

Liberal - NO
Nose Holder - NO
Willing to sit silently - NO

Category - SCOLD, APPEASE, MARGINALIZE, IGNORE.

To those conservatives who have known all along that BigTent Republicanism was a doomed experiment from the beginning, and to those who have finally given up on it as a way to keep conservatism relevant, perhaps we can now begin speech about the rebuilding of the GOP from the ground up.  There have been many references to this, but I have not seen any serious attempts to get the ball rolling.

The natural place to begin is with the platform.  The Republican Party platform in the early nineties was a bullet list of principles and positions.  Now it's a bunch of paragraphs listing the excuses and methods for compromising each of them.  Delete! Delete! Delete!

First I believe we should seriously consider the fact that we actually imbue in our very speech and writing, the incredibility and guilt we are accused of by liberals.  We speak in the PC of the day, and then complain that John McCain doesn't hit hard.  We ask for a Teddy Roosevelt and get Marty Milktoast.  We shun those who speak the truth openly because we are wanting to be what?  Nice?  We are nice, we care about liberals too.  But speaking the truth is not mean.  It's just been called that for so long that we become robotic to whatever fingerpointing we experience.  We should stop negotiating around the insult of accusation and say what is right intelligently and forcefully.  Stop being sorry for our races, sorry for not calling someone by their latest demanded moniker.  We can be smart while we do it though.  For example, in referring to Obama's communism, we don't call "a spade a spade".  That just makes it too easy for someone to call us racist, whatever our own color.  You call a communist a communist and then you explain what that means.

We should stop with the planning being handed to us in how we should be considering a new approach to our compromised conservatism and throw out the compromise altogether.

A new platform, supported with bold and intelligent speach.  No compromise on the part of the part for each bulleted item, but demand compromise on the part of those who come to understand and support most of the platform.

1- Republicans are pro-life.

etc. 

If you are a Republican but do not believe in the pro-life value, then you compromise your own beliefs and not expect the party to compromise to keep your votes.

more ranting later. 

When I lost a video game to my 10 year old daughter in 2001 and asked for a rematch, she said "C'mon Dad!  Don't be like Al Gore."

This struck me and I began to think.  She does not even watch the news nor even speak of politics, but Al Gore's whining-3rd-grade-sore looser attitude was something she picked up on nonetheless, because it was on the television.  Of course, now at 17 she is a powerfully critical thinker with an intellect to back it up.  But the point is, just what has been said can be a powerful influence on what people think. 

So then how powerful was it when the media deliberately told the public that the Florida polls were closed in 2000 before they actually were?  Or when they called the election for John Kerry when it wasn't true?

I predict the Obama friendly media will jump-the-gun this election with these same tactics again, hoping that the momentum will trump wrongdoing.  But if McCain still wins, there will be riots.  And people will die as they do in these things.  And the Republicans won't do more than try to smooth things over.

We are so nice.  Leftists in the media have been doing both of these for decades and we just smile at them.  "It's Ok.  We understand.  Just got a little overly excited and jumped the gun."  Has anyone gone to jail or paid a serious fine for this type of election tampering?  Not enough to stop it or even curb it.  That is the reason they don't fear to do it again. 

You know, I consider a liberal pointing their finger at me as a badge of honor.  I wish the Republicans would all take courage like Sen. Joseph McCarthy.  Damn the consequences!  Do what's right.

God save America!

Read Karl Rove article on poll jumpers.

 

“People are not in need of absolute truths; were it otherwise, progress would be arrested and life would cease in humanity; the ebb and flow of contrary ideas, the clash of opinions, the passions of the time, ever impelled by its dreams, are necessary to the intellectual growth of peoples.  The people know it full well, and therefore they would quickly avoid a real doctor to gather themselves around hucksters who sell quack medicines.  Some of these hucksters that are thought of as great thinkers, especially, too often resemble children playing charades.  They quickly avoid those who know the answer already, lest the game be spoiled by depriving the puzzle of the question of all its interest.”

“black Magic may be defined as the art of inducing artificial mania in ourselves and in others.”  Eliphas Levi

In case this bit of history has escaped anyone.  The parallels to today are uncanny.  One major difference is, the Rescue Package in the 1930s (New Deal leap into Red Socialism) didn't occur until we were already fully into a depression.  But for this generation, it is being done simultaneously.

The stock market crash occurred in three phrases - black Thursday, black Monday, and black Tuesday.  All three are appropriate, for the crash was not a one-day affair. The initial crash occurred on black Thursday (October 24, 1929), but it was the catastrophic downturn of black Monday and Tuesday (October 28 and 29, 1929) that precipitated widespread panic and the onset of unprecedented and long-lasting consequences for the United States. The collapse continued for a month.

In the days leading up to black Tuesday, the market was severely unstable. Periods of selling and high volumes of trading were interspersed with brief periods of rising prices and recovery. Economist and author Jude Wanniski later correlated these swings with the prospects for passage of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, which was then being debated in Congress.  After the crash, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) recovered early in 1930, only to reverse again, reaching a low point of the great bear market in 1932. The Dow did not return to pre-1929 levels until late 1954, and was lower at its July 8, 1932 level than it had been since the 1800s. 

After an amazing five-year run when the world saw the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) increase in value fivefold, prices peaked at 381.17 on September 3, 1929, The market then fell sharply for a month, losing 17% of its value on the initial leg down. Prices then recovered more than half of the losses over the next week, only to turn back down immediately afterwards.  The decline then accelerated into the so-called "black Thursday", October 24, 1929. A record number of 12.9 million shares were traded on that day. At 1 p.m. on Friday, October 25,  Richard Whitney, vice president of the Exchange, with the bankers' financial resources behind him, placed a bid to purchase a large block of shares in U.S. Steel at a price well above the current market. As amazed traders watched, Whitney then placed similar bids on other “blue chip” stocks. This tactic was similar to a tactic that ended the Panic of 1907, and succeeded in halting the slide that day. In this case, however, the respite was only temporary

On Monday, October 28, the first "black Monday", more investors decided to get out of the market, and the slide continued with a record loss in the Dow for the day of 13%. The next day, "black Tuesday", October 29, 1929, about 16 million shares were traded.  The volume on stocks traded on October 29, 1929 was "...a record that was not broken for nearly 40 years, in 1968." Author Richard M. Salsman wrote that on October 29 — amid rumors that U.S. President Herbert Hoover would not veto the pending Hawley-Smoot Tariff bill—stock prices crashed even further." 

William C. Durant joined with members of the Rockefeller family and other financial giants to buy large quantities of stocks in order to demonstrate to the public their confidence in the market, but their efforts failed to stop the slide.  The DJIA lost another 12% that day. The ticker did not stop running until about 7:45 that evening. The market lost $14 billion in value that day, bringing the loss for the week to $30 billion, ten times more than the annual budget of the federal government, far more than the U.S. had spent in all of World War I.

An interim bottom occurred on November 13, with the Dow closing at 198.6 that day. The market recovered for several months from that point, with the Dow reaching a secondary peak (ie, dead cat bounce) at 294.0 in April 1930. The market embarked on a steady slide in April 1931 that did not end until 1932 when the Dow closed at 41.22 on Jul 8, concluding a shattering 89% decline from the peak. This was the lowest the stock market had been since the 19th century.

The New Deal was the name that President Franklin D. Roosevelt gave to a sequence of programs he initiated between 1933 and 1936 and with the goal of giving work (relief) to the unemployed, reform of business and financial practices, and recovery of the economy during The Great Depression. 

Whatever the reason, whatever the excuse, whatever the stated need or the perceived good it can do, every time government steps in, we lose freedom.  This time it is an enormous loss, and we are all standing at the feet of the Duke and the Dauphin asking for it.

That's what the headlines would read if Republicans weren't a bunch of weiners.  And that is why I refuse to vote for them.  What do Republicans think they will accomplish with their milktoast attitudes? 

Personally, I think Republicans sit around thinking, "Even though I'm a Republican, I think Senator Kennedy likes me.  I think he was smiling at me yesterday!"

They probably worry they'll upset someone if they ask for real dairy products in the congressional coffee mess.

Their inactivity causes me to either believe the above, or that they actually welcome our socialist future.

is "He Who Must Not Be Named"

After all the derision from nose-holders for standing on my principles and refusing to vote for
      "McCain!  Not conservative, but better than Obama".

-It turns out the McCain Palin ticket will lose this election not because of my principles, but because of John McCain's principles.

He thinks opening his mouth is dirty fighting.

Irony to the nth degree.  

Ha ha ha.

Congress created the problem with FannieMae and FreddieMac.  That and numerous other problems they created; $4 per gallon at the pump, allowing millions of illegal aliens to undercut the American poor they put in their campaign ads, over taxation, most-favored nation trade status, etc, have made our great economy perilously distended. 

The Russians have attacked our allies and now have stationed nuclear weapons to the south of us.  Terrorists are praising Barak Obama.  China has ICBMs with US technology guiding them.  World market are all over the place, and an election to put a socialist or a socialist lite in office is coming up.  Socialist Democrats practically pose on the guns that shoot our warriors while Republican congressmen cringe at their pointing fingers.

And Congress just played an arrogant game of tease to our markets that caused us to have the worst DOW drop in history, with an attempt to not only retain control of a large sector of our economy, but to make it ten times bigger.

The cry to Washington is still "SAVE US!"

when it should be -

"Get your control and your rules out of the FREE MARKET!"
