American Volunteerism

As things and events proceed with this administration, we are all beginning to see just exactly what the Liberals have been telling us all the time.
That they have every intention of tearing down and effectively destroying that American way of life. They are hard at work gutting American traditions and institutions, which, for better or worse, are at the bedrock of America..
Which is not to say “the United States”.
America and its citizens, despite the propaganda, are not the United States government. As anyone who has tangled with the IRS or any of the other alphabet agencies can tell you.
This government, for the past hundred plus years, has had very little concern about its citizens (read as subjects). It has stolen land, freedom, civil rights, lives with abundant disregard for either their own laws or the rights of its victims.
Americans, the actual people of this country, are the most giving and volunteering people on the face of the earth. This is evidenced virtually every day by their actions is response to emergencies and disasters all around the globe. And they continue to volunteer for Armed Forces and other volunteer organizations across the country in record numbers, only partly driven by the current economy.
In truth, Americans volunteer by the thousands regardless of the economic ebb and flow. They volunteer for disaster relief efforts around the world, not just their time and their safety, but cash and goods as well. Without seeking reward other than the feeling of doing good.
Where the government, in similar circumstances, is more inclined to look for the benefit to itself or its image. And, as proven by the response to Hurricane Katrina, fairly incompetent at the job at hand.
Riddled by programs run by incomptetents, bleeding graft, and overseen by preening politicians seeking publicity for themselves, the government has itself generated the oxymoron, “I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”
Our government “of the people, by the people and for the people,” has grown into a tyranny of bureaucracies. One after another, seeking to deprive supposed “citizens” of their money, property, and rights, these bureaucracies are operated by faceless, anonymous and therefore untouchable entities, protected by the courts and the weight of government muscle.
The alphabet agencies are dedicated to the virtual opposite of their mandates.
The ATF, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, make their daily bread by denying the American public all of the above, directly violating their own charters and the Constitution of the United States, through outright seizure, oppressive taxation and propaganda painting all opponents of their pogroms as drug dealers, terrorists, organized crime or child pornographers/molesters.
The I.R.S.(Internal Revenue Service) seems dedicated to bankrupting and/or destroying everyone who doesn’t have enough to pay for the high end CPA or tax lawyer.
The DEA, Drug Enforcement Agency, has apparently dedicated itself to ignoring the actual “drug lords” while rounding up literally millions of drug users. Jails in the United States are filled with people serving incredibly long sentences for possession and/or use of drugs. Street level dealers who are mostly doing nothing more than trying to support their own habits. Or make a few bucks on the side. And it IS comparatively a very few bucks, after looking at some of the money shipments accidentally found and confiscated by the actual good cops in the Coast Guard or Border Patrol.
It is not the individual officers, the rank and file, who are to blame, most are dedicated to the concept of “to protect and to serve, but the bureaucracies in which they find themselves entrenched and under the command of self-serving and disinterested politicians or other bureaucrats with agendas of their own.
And now, the Patriot Act, while virtually gutting what is left of the practical Constitution, has given us the Department of Homeland Defense. An Agency that is the Washington Bureaucrats dream, answering to no one outside of the White House, Above the Constitution, outside the jurisdiction of the courts, as if any judge would commit professional suicide by thwarting them.
They trample the rights of American citizens on a daily basis, under the guise of “fighting terrorism”, which even if they were serious about it, they can’t do now, because the Liberals are working in “Newspeak” to change the definitions of the very terms and language to make terrorists, real terrorists, into “victims” and victims into blind, faceless, nonhuman statistics
. This dehumanization of the victims of government actions is not new to this government or even this administration. It goes back hundreds of years.
The History Channel recently ran a program about genocides through recent history.
Communist Russia killed untold millions of their people under the Soviet Regime, from Lenin’s progroms to Stalin and later.
Communist China under Mao killed nearly 15 million of their own trying to get failing communist ideals to work in an agrarian society.
Laos, Cambodia, VietNam, several African nations engaging in tribal warfare, Bosnia and Croatia. It is a very long list of sitting governments and leaders, many of whom current Liberals idolize( including Obama) who had no problem either killing or allowing to die through neglect, millions and millions of THEIR OWN PEOPLE.
Do not fool yourselves into believing it could not happen here. It has already happened, though on a small scale. And, of course, the government got to put their own spin on such events when they happened.
A short list.
Agent Orange; radiation and chemical testing in New York subways and elsewhere; blind LSD tests w/out the knowledge of the participants; the syphilis test in Muskogee on AfricanAmericans; agent provocateurs in the civil unrest of the 60’s; marching soldiers into the desert in Nevada to test radiation exposure and its effects on healthy humans, who happened to be wearing uniforms.
There are many more incidents, the discovery of each was followed by complete denial in the face of damning evidence, or by abject apology and the promise of “Never again.”
All the while they move the projects to another location under a different name, and, possibly, different personnel, to give the appearance of compliance.

Do Not Fool Yourselves! It Can Happen Here. It has happened here. It is happening here.

The Infidel Factor
Def: ” That level of perceived difference between one group of humans and another that allows either group to claim moral or ethical high ground in dealing with the other group, permitting varying latitudes and levels of guilt free response to actions and stimuli, real or perceived.”

Thousands of years ago, when people tried to come up with explanations of where they came from, who created the world, why things happened, etc. , they basically arrived at conclusions that fit with their own languages, which described themselves as “the people”.

The People. The only real people. The only ones that matter.

All others are or were NOT real people. Therefore they were not REAL. Therefore they didn’t matter at all.

Then, when they developed gods, naturally, their gods were the only real gods and too good for those OTHERS. So, they classified the Others as less than real, less than human.

And, following eternal human logic, if they are/were less than human, they are/were animals, to be dealt with as such.

Without compassion or compunction.

This was refined over time by various religions and regimes as infidels or heretics. Which terms have survived, along with a few others, over the centuries to modern day.

Now commonly used to denote differences that are cited as causes for war, terrorism, assaults, beatings, hate crimes, the list goes on.

Whites call other races all sorts of epithets, which basically translate down to “infidel” (not one of US). This justifies any actions they decide to take.

Christians, especially fundamentalists, use other terms as well, and other subtleties of language to describe those they classify as “less than ourselves”, or less than human.

Each separate group or ethnos develops their own terminology and lexicon to describe whatever group they hate this week.

Right now, we are all too familiar with certain Muslim groups and their opinions of infidels and, of course, what they would like to happen to all infidels. Research the term Al-Shariyah. Muslim law for everybody, whether they like it or not. This is the fundamentalist goal for that particular group.

Liberals, American, that is. Have developed their own lexicon for the infidel. Fundamentalist, Sects, Survivalist, Conservative, Home grown Terrorist, and the ever popular Drug Dealer.

Americans vs. U.S.

Just touching base about my/our boys in the service.
Seems the Army Medic just found that he will probably be deployed to Afghanixtan after finishing his training.
Which is in line with what I was telling him.
The other boy/young man is a Marine. which means he will be deployed to Afghanistan after he finishes his training.
As I told them, our government, the U.S., does not now, nor has it for decades, feel ANY responsibility to or for our servicemen and women. They will gladly use them and throw them away without thought of duty or honor on THEIR part, while demanding same from our friends and family wearing the uniforms.
It is this history of pseudo-aristocratic insularity from consequences and or responsibility that has burst my bubble about our country.
Their is no people in the history of the world that has volunteered more, given up more, risked more for the greater good than the people of America. Americans! Not the U.S.
Whenever, whereever or whatever the emergency is, Americans will be there. Helping, volunteering, risking their lives and health.
Giving up their time, money, property. To help others in need. And it doesn't matter what country, season or direction. They are always our front when the call goes out for help and volunteers.
That is why I fly the flag, and salute it when it goes by. The people of this land are our strength and the source of our pride.
Not this greasy, graft ridden, grossly overpaid, golden parachuted, insulated from responsibility pseudo-aristocratic society of the haves that has landed in our government.
Salute the Real Americans, black, brown, red white, oriental who put themselves out there for their neighbors and others. No matter what their religion, color, origin these are the real America now.
Celebrate this. Rx

Tea Party Site, interesting info

Check out this site for citizen info and insight into government operations..

These are the boys. They have recently joined the armed forces of the United States. For better or worse, although they are adults and made up their own minds about the decisions.

I explained that the services are a great place to get training and experience. To experience the world and meet lots of different sorts of people, but I always threw in the proviso that "when the government decides to give a war, if you are wearing the uniform, they kinda expect you to show up."

Well, they did their research and made their decisions, separately as far as I know.

So we'll see. I am proud as Hell and worried at the same time. Just like every other parent that is counting on the "government" to take care of our loved ones.

Fat chance, Right? I have no concerns about the way these two young men will comport themselves while on duty.

I have many concerns with the way they will be treated by this government that seems to think that politicians and State Department suits are more qualified to run a military operation than the people with the training and experience, i.e. the military.

If I believed in God, this is where I would start praying...

Bless all the American children and parents in the Services. Keep them safe. And if you can't keep them safe, make sure the country and the American people take care of them when they get home. l

Communist Revolution in America?

Yes, I believe it is happening.

I admit I have spent the morning watching Fox News, the “entertainment channel” according to the Administration.  If you wish to get the straight story, that is the only place to go.

They have their facts straight and they have the quotes and the video tape to prove it. FoxNews.com "Fair and Balanced"

Hopefully, the polls are right and the voters are actually waking up to what is happening while they were looking elsewhere and there is still time to put a wrench the Socialist machine.

I think where they screwed up is the shotgun approach, where they try to change everything at once.  Thus illustrating to just about everybody exactly what their plan is.

From destroying our right to Free Press and Free Speech to trampling on our Gun Rights and other vestiges of the Bill of Rights.  Watch what our self appointed aristocracy says and does about and with our freedoms.  Your freedoms.  Your children’s freedoms. 

They are using the old Communist trick of Smoke and Mirrors, distracting the voters with rhetoric and the Big Lie, while they proceed to deconstruct the existing infrastructure.

Obviously to be replaced with their own programs of  power consolidation and oppression of the populace under the guise of “empowerment” and “spreading the wealth”.

Which is NewSpeak for taking the power away from the voters and taking the wealth away from ANYBODY who has it, regardless of how small a piece they might have.

Read “1984”.  You will recognize the techniques.

They want to restrict your speech.  They want to control your income.  They will call their opponents the worst sorts of epithets, such as traitors, radicals, fundamentalists, tools of the establishment. 

The very same language that Stalin, Lenin, Mao and Castro used when they met opposition of any sort.  

In the meantime, as an American in modern time, you have taken an oath at some time in your adult life and should remember that you have a duty to “support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic”.

Uphold that oath!  Speak out.  Vote. For whoever, but vote.
