My vote is….No vote at all

Opinion Guest post

By Rita Johns

Having voted all my life in absolutely every conceivable election, feeling it my duty as well as an honor, I can no longer participate in this system. The last presidential election saw the public faced with two of the most unqualified, undignified, and low level candidates ever presented to the American public as presidential options. Trump and Clinton were the best of the best? The best at what? Each of them only slightly worse than the other depending on the topic. Neither of them should ever have been anywhere close to the office, much less contenders for the highest office of the US government.

The coming presidential election, if it even takes place in fact, will see the public faced with Trump and Biden as the only potential candidates. Two fumbling old men: one a misogynistic, amoral, pathological liar who has no interest in, or knowledge of the Constitution for the United States and who sees himself as some sort of royal, and the other? Has never really accomplished anything, is rumored to be unable to keep his hands off young girls and women, and many times appears totally confused about where he is and what is currently taking place.

I refuse. If this is the best we have….count me out. That’s my vote! No vote at all. And please don’t tell me that if I don’t vote I have no right to complain. Of course I do! If you vote for one of these losers, I can start by blaming you for putting them in office to begin with.

And please don’t confuse politics with interest in the well being of our country. Politics and political party’s only matter to the commoners. None of those elected officials give a damn about any of us.

The Real Loser in the Midterms: Individuality

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the election, sappy statements on social media exhort us to bow down in praise that the first minority this or the first woman that was elected and how this means we have catapulted our nation out of the Neanderthal era. Funny how no one mentions Young Kim’s victory – but she is not a Democrat so it does not count. It’s funny how no one cheered women of color when Condoleeza Rice was secretary of state. Instead she was called an Aunt Jemima and a house nigga’ in a nationally syndicated cartoon.

Now it is acceptable to call young conservative black students enjoying their visit with President Trump “N-words in Maggot hats” and ridicule them as “props.”  What racist insults! Undoubtedly, the prominently positioned little black boy at the Affordable Care Act signing just happened to be strolling outside the White House East Room. More

Disasters Much Bigger than San Bernardino: What Candidates Need to Talk about

4 Comments

new-logo25Jane M. Orient, M.D.

Some candidates including Trump and Cruz support the right of Americans to own effective tools of self defense. But none are talking about the long-standing official government stance of keeping Americans as vulnerable hostages to nuclear weapons.

It is terrible that Americans can get shot at a Christmas party, but much worse will happen if we don’t confront the problems beginning at the top.

________________________________________________________________

After every shooting episode the response is the same formula: constant media coverage, much of it fact-free, and calls for thoughts, prayers—and still more gun control. It’s time to take a broader perspective than a focus on the dozens of individual tragedies.

Today, Americans are targets. Not just individual Americans, but also the United States of America. They are targeted by deranged individuals, by fanatical ideologues, by drug cartels, by terrorist organizations, and by foreign powers, some of whom have intercontinental ballistic missiles with multiple independently targeted nuclear warheads aimed at American cities.

Our thoughts need to turn to what is really going on, and our prayers need to include “God save the United States of America.”

We have pervasive surveillance of our financial transactions, our telephone and electronic communications, our medical records, and our movements. The government has enormous powers of search and seizure, many unthinkable to drafters of our Fourth Amendment, and these are used against Americans engaged in normal business that threatens no one. We already have lots of gun control laws.

So how were terrorists in San Bernadino able to accumulate bomb-making material, an arsenal of weapons both legal and illegal, and body armor, without spurring any action by the authorities?

Terrorists have also engaged in operations that don’t yet have any poster children but that are far more dangerous than shooting up a Christmas party, such as disabling a key electrical substation. This shows the capacity for coordinated, sophisticate operations that could cripple the electricity grid for a long time.

Candidates such as Donald Trump and Ted Cruz call for controlling illegal immigration—surely necessary, but insufficient. The San Bernardino terrorists were here legally.

Here are the real issues that we need to discuss:

Americans are mostly helpless victims. The government that is supposed to protect us, though awesomely powerful, appears to be incompetent, corrupt, or—dare we suggest it?—on the other side.Americans are divided by a culture of grievances.America is dangerously weak.Foreign policy is recklessly provocative.

The fix is in: Republicans make sure Obama serves second term

________________________________________

I have concluded that we may as well dispense with the coming media circus surrounding the 2012 presidential election.  Think of it: no phony “debates”, no stage shows, no mud slinging ads, no having to hear the same lame lies and statements as one candidate after another tries to convince us that he/she will reverse the terrible destructive course the US  is on.  We don’t need to subject ourselves to any of it; the fix is in and Obama wins hands down, no competition……or at least none that the Republican party will acknowledge.  Why upset the status quo?

How do I know this?

The Republican party could easily sweep the elections and retake the White House simply by running Ron Paul (R) TX.  Poll after poll shows Paul garnering  25% with GOP voters and as much as 70% or more with the public  from BOTH sides of the political spectrum. 

During the GOP debate, CBS twice removed a candidate poll because the support for Ron Paul showed that he was far and away the leading choice for Republican voters and that was not supposed to happen!

So why wouldn’t the Republican party run what is clearly a winning candidate?  Hmmmmm.  Because Ron Paul would put an end to much of the power Republicans and Democrats enjoy as a result of their own self-pandering, power grabbing and unconstitutional activity. 

 Instead they are offering the sorriest collection of non-starters most likely ever assembled for a presidential race and are actively blacking out and refusing to acknowledge the popularity of Paul with the voters and what would be a sure-fire land-slide election. More

Vote all you want…the agenda doesn’t change

We vote because we believe it will make a difference.  We vote because we have been carefully steered through fictional ideologies, presented to us as “us against them”, the right v left, Democrat v Republican, liberal v conservative.  It is all a ruse.  Not one of the people who wave the party flags, who promote the party platforms on either side of the fictional isle belong to anything other than the ruling party of the District of Criminals.  This one party system which has a death grip on the country isn’t about to let go; but I’m not voting for any of them.  I’ve decided that I will not vote for the candidate most likely to cause the least destruction just because he or she isn’t quite as corrupted as the pretended opposition. 

We have choices between two things….rotten, and not so rotten at the moment.  If those are the only choices I have, I refuse to choose. I refuse to be forced to choose between the lesser of two evils.  Evil is evil; changing the face of evil by rotating which faction is center stage, makes it no less malignant.  I will not be forced to vote for candidates I firmly believe are set against us.  

We need the choice of voting “no confidence” on our ballots.  We need to be able to prevent anyone who cannot garner at least 50% of the vote, from taking an official office.  We need to end corrupt politicians sitting in office who got only 20 or 30% of the vote.  We need a means to convey our disgust at the lack of honesty, integrity and moral character that a vote of “no confidence” could provide.  And we need to prevent career politicians from nesting up in government on a minimal number of votes.

Regardless of which camp you like to think you are in, voting will simply deliver you more of the same no matter who wins.  Just as the Democrats picked up where the Republicans left off in 2008, the changing of the guard on congress will simply see a continuance of the agenda already in motion.  The Republicans will simply pick up where the Democrats left off.  But you are supposed to believe there is some great and vast difference between the right and left.  We’ll get rid of those nasty Democrats and put the Republicans back in there running things…..yeah….that’ll fix it.  Wait…Weren’t the Republicans the ones who set this mess up during Bush the Lessor’s tenure as Prez?  And, weren’t the Democrats going to ride in to save us from the nasty Republicans?

Why so much excitement? You have no real choices!

Leave a comment

I am absolutely mystified by the excitement people from both sides of what is virtually the same political party regardless of whether you call it Democrat or Republican, conservative or liberal.  The fact is you are being presented with two presidential candidates expressing almost identical ideas and policies and both are just the continuation of George W. Bush’s plans and policies that have devastated our country for more than seven years.

 

The only real difference between McCain and Obama is in their presentation.  Presentation is every thing regardless of what you are selling.  McCain is presenting himself as another aggressive war president who will supposedly keep you safe from those nasty terrorists, and Obama is presenting himself as the diplomat who will only go to war as a last resort.  In either case, both are selling us continued wars, continued loss of liberty and a big brother style government. It’s just a matter of which camp you fall into and what kind of personality appeals to you. 

 

If you are one of those people that tend to lean towards machismo in your candidate, replete with tough talk, swaggering, a hair-trigger temper and bullying you’re more likely to vote for McCain. 

 

McCain puts me in mind of that creepy little critter in Lord of the Rings who’s coveting of the prized ring turned him from a man into a twisted and ugly creature.  There is no doubt in my mind that this man would sell his soul to sit in the Oval Office especially after having been cheated out of it by the likes of George W. Bush.  McCain got the message. Gone is the so-called “maverick” that purveyor of straight talk.  In its place is a man who will say or do whatever he has to, to claim the prize. 

 

During the national debates McCain looked almost crazed at times especially when for all intents and purposes the Republican Party had someone in mind other than him for the coveted nomination ;( a nomination that I personally believe had been promised to him in 2000 if he would forfeit the nomination to Bush.) Then he stated that we could be in war for another 100 years…a clear signal to the global mafia that he was on board.  Prior to making this statement, opposition to him being nominated was monumental within the Republican Party ranks.  Almost immediately after, opposition seemed to evaporate at least where it counted most which was in the RNC.  After all, McCain had just indicated that he would continue the devastating policies and agenda of the Bush administration. 

 

If you are a person who is more drawn to diplomacy or swayed by the ability of a candidate to wax eloquent and to speak endlessly without ever revealing much of anything, Obama is your man.  To those of us who suffer from some collective form of political shock from the last seven years, Obama is very appealing and he seems to always be in control of himself.  Adept at pinpointing issues of most concern to us common people and promising to reverse all the terrible damage done to our country under the Bush regime, all will end up being nothing more than empty political promises regardless of what his true intent was.  Even he knows this.  The free trader, capitalist, no loyalties to anyone but their banker crowd will never, let Obama make the changes he speaks of.  And, Obama just selected Joe Biden, known for his support for the war, his support of globalization that is devastating not only our economy but economies around the world.  Obama just signaled that he is on board with the globalists.

 

Neither candidate has made any reference to the unconstitutional expansion of powers of the executive branch or made any indication that they would reverse these illegal actions.  

 

Neither speaks of the Security & Prosperity Partnership that is laying the foundation for the North American Union that will see the forfeiture of our sovereignty. 

 

Neither will move to secure our southern border.

 

Both will try to implement an amnesty plan.

 

Neither candidate will make any effort to restore our loss of constitutional rights and protections. 

 

Obama’s Comprehensive healthcare reform will not happen unless the insurance industry, big pharma and the medical industry can be assured of getting a huge piece of the pie and continue to siphon billions out of the American public.

 

McCain will try to force privatization of Social Security, even as the stock markets indicate that nothing is stable and many bigger fortunes have been lost in recent weeks.  His plan, just as Bush’s, is to funnel the money for retirement into the stock market where these funds have long been coveted and where they will be subject to high risk ventures with no oversight.

 

The list goes on, but in the end regardless of who we cast our vote for we will get the same president.  Nothing will change that will benefit ordinary American’s.  Everything will be forfeited to the globalist agenda.  The only choice you have to make is whether you want your bad news from another wannabe cowboy who can’t possibly sit the horse he’s trying to ride, or, do you want it delivered to you in a more subtle and palatable way from someone who makes bad news seem, not so bad. 

 

Either way you’re going to get bad news; its all in how it’s presented.

The Trilateral Commission, John, Hillary, Obama, and the NWO of Feudalism

Leave a comment

By Barbara H. Peterson

 

This morning I opened my e-mail and found two items of interest that when put together, spell disaster for America as we know it. As it stands right now, the three Presidential “frontrunners” are nothing but shills for a New World Order of feudalism.

 

The first item I opened was from the American Free Press:

 

Global Elite Gather in D.C., by James P. Tucker Jr.

 

The Trilateral Commission—one of the three most powerful globalist groups in the world—held closed-door meetings right here in Washington, D.C. from April 25 to 28. True to form, those members of the media who knew about the meeting—or were themselves participants in the proceedings—refused to discuss what went on inside or report on the attendees. Luckily, AFP’s own editor, Jim Tucker, was on the scene to bust this clandestine confabulation wide open.

 

Luminaries at the Trilateral Commission meeting in Washington expressed confidence that they own all three major presidential candidates, who, despite political posturing, will support sovereignty-surrendering measures such as NAFTA and the “North American Union.”

 

The second item of interest this morning was titled “The New Feudalism” by Moss David Posner. David postulates in this essay that Americans have a disconnect to reality that has been carefully groomed over the years to make them susceptible to things that they would normally not accept. He goes on to conclude,

 

The current crop of international criminals wishes to reduce the world to one large feudal system. Such a notion endured for many centuries before. Could they really believe such is possible? Could they really pull it off? In this last regard, history does not speak in our favor.

 

Connecting the dots, one would have to conclude that David is absolutely correct in his conclusion. It all makes sense.

 

Standing Orders for the Next President

 

According to James Tucker,

 

This panel [Trilateral Commission] had these orders for the next president: increase foreign aid across the board because “America does not pay its fair share,” pay up the arrears in UN dues, allow as many immigrants into the United States as want to come and provide “amnesty” for illegal aliens already here.

 

Why else would the Trilateral Commission’s standing orders for the next President include such things as open borders, illegal alien amnesty, and shelling out even more taxpayer money, if not to reduce American citizens to lives of servitude and desperation?

 

All three handpicked Presidential candidates will do nothing to stop NAFTA or the NAU. In fact, they have pledged to support them. Here are quotes from the Trilateral Commission’s meeting regarding the candidates’ stand on these issues:

 

“John has always supported free trade, even while campaigning before union leaders… Hil and Barack are pretending to be unhappy about some things, but that’s merely political posturing. They’re solidly in support…”  referring to Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) and Barack Obama (D-Ill.). Mrs. Clinton, they noted, held strategy sessions as first lady on how to get Congress to approve NAFTA “without changes.” As president, they agreed, she would do no more than “dot an i or cross a t.” Candidate Obama has not denied news reports in Canada that his top economic adviser, Austan Goolsbee, assured Canadian diplomats that the senator would keep NAFTA intact and his anti-trade talk is just “campaign rhetoric.” (Tucker, 2008)

 

The Trilateral Commission members concluded that the only real danger is Ron Paul.

 

They expressed concern that Paul’s rallies have attracted multitudes of young people who are getting “their political education.” They want Republicans to pressure Paul to drop out now and stop his education rallies. This assignment was given to Thomas Foley, former U.S. House speaker. (Tucker, 2008)

 

An educated and informed populace is not on the agenda for these New World Order (NWO) promoters. After all, have you ever seen an educated feudal serf?

 

The Stockholm Syndrome

 

Remember President Bush saying after 9/11 “if you are not with us, you are with the terrorists?” Who is this “us?” Why, the global elite of course. You thought it was all loyal Americans? Think again. Who are “the terrorists?” anyone besides the global elite. And what do you do with terrorists? If you are the ruling power, you exterminate, torture, and use them to accomplish your objectives. You keep them uninformed, fill their lives with propaganda and lies, and make them believe that there is nothing they can do about it. In fact, if you’re very good at what you do, they even learn to love you for it. This phenomenon is called the Stockholm Syndrome.

 

The Stockholm syndrome occurs when abused persons show signs of loyalty to their abuser/s because they become emotionally attached. How do you get your victim to become emotionally attached? According to Katina Krasnic, “This development occurs when there are perceived threats of violence, disempowerment of the subject, high levels of stress or trauma upon subject, and ultimate dependence upon the person in control for base survival” (LINK).

 

Isn’t this exactly what our government is doing? The population is bombarded with perceived threats of terrorism, our basic human rights are being confiscated before our eyes and we are becoming more disempowered by the day. People are under high levels of stress due to the threat of violence, as well as foreclosures, gasoline prices, lowering wages, loss of jobs, lack of medical care, and the myriad of other ways stress is induced. This stress creates the ultimate dependence desired by the abusers in power, and is exactly what is happening at this very moment. By the time the program is complete, people will be running to the government to protect them from the government, and thus, the serfdom noose tightens; and as good little serfs, will defend their master to the death.

 

In an act of self-delusion, the victims of Stockholm Syndrome develop conditions in order to reassure themselves that they will be protected or cared for. By creating a false emotional attachment and seeking praise and approval of their captor, they attempt to make a false reality for themselves, in which no harm can come to them. And by defending and/or protecting their captors from police or anyone who “comes to the rescue,” they allow themselves to appear as if they have some control in a relationship which they really have no power. The value of their lives, which the captor grants, is seen as a sign of affection or love, and the captive wishes to reciprocate in order to maintain their own position at that time. By accepting a level of objectification that one should reject as a matter of basic human dignity, hostages or captives weaken their ability to control their emotions. This allows them to become malleable, thus becoming easily susceptible to the whims of their captors, and creates this unbalanced relationship of attachment between the captor and the captive. (Krasnec, 2008)

 

Presidential Elections and the Road to Serfdom

 

Our Presidential elections are an emotional parade in which charlatans called candidates create a false reality for a nation of Stockholm Syndrome victims who desperately need to believe that someone in a high place actually cares about what happens to them. This is a carefully constructed delusion. While the populace lives the delusion and buys into the lies perpetrated by these Trilateral Commission globalist lackeys, the real players work the sidelines and act as shills in a crowd of marks, spurring the act on.

 

Wake up! John, Hillary, and Obama do not care one iota about the people of this country. They are charlatans in a circus staged for no other purpose than to push the people of this country further down the road to delusion and serfdom.

 

There is no doubt in this writer’s mind that feudalism is the global elite’s plan for the earth’s population. David Posner has nailed it. Americans are to be reduced to serfdom in this Utopia envisioned by the Trilateral Commission, Bilderbergs, and the rest of the criminals in power in a worldwide conspiracy to dominate life itself.

 

What Chance Do We Have?

 

The only chance that we as a people have is that these “leaders” do not perceive their own weaknesses because of arrogance. The more power they get, the more arrogant they get, and the weaker they become. As one ascends into the heights of arrogance, the less aware a person becomes of any personal weakness, and as any fighter knows, if an opponent is not aware of personal weakness, vulnerabilities are created. The key is to study one’s opponent, and prepare one’s self to strike at his/her undefended weakness. You cannot study your opponent if you are too engrossed in his/her charade by being a good little Stockholm Syndrome victim.

 

Therefore, I encourage people to think outside the box. Do not get wrapped up in the emotional hype surrounding the three Presidential “frontrunners.” They are all supporting the same ideology, and that is feudal serfdom for America as well as the rest of the world. Wake up! Join the people willing to think beyond the hype. Start studying your adversary and spreading the word about the weaknesses you encounter. It is the only chance we have.

What Do You Know…..about the Council on Foreign Relations and Trilateral Commission?

Leave a comment

What do you know about the Council On Foreign Relations or the Trilateral Commission? It would be prudent to know everything about them because they heavily influence United States governmental policies that are shaping our future and the lives we live.

 

Did you know that almost every top governmental position from the President, his cabinet and the appointed department heads down are members of one or both of these groups? Did you know that many people in Congress and leaders of industry are also members? Did you know that on the long list of major party candidates seeking the Presidency, every one of them except Ron Paul and Alan Keyes belong to these groups?

 

Are you now saying, so what?

 

Would you become concerned if you knew that these are private groups whose missions are not to follow and respect the US constitution, but to consolidate the United States with other nations? What better way to promote your agenda and shape events than to have people in key positions with the same mind set?

 

Agents of change have learned to be very patient but not to sway from their objectives. Think of it this way; you are hurrying through a busy day and stub your toe. You stop and tend to it because it is severe pain, but if your shoe is just a little tight and uncomfortable you put it out of your mind because other demands are more important. That’s how our lives are being changed, by individual incremental steps that pinch us a little but we learn to live with it.

 

Little planned pinches can and do result in large changes in the rules and laws we live under. Influence shapes the thinking and decisions from public schools to townships, to counties, to states and to federal levels.

Changes always seem noble. We see them as globalism, multiculturalism, diversity, sustained development, world heritage sites, etc. All are Socialist in nature and promote collectivist principles.

 

Wait a minute, doesn’t that mean that the three top contenders for President in the Democrat and Republican parties are Socialists?

 

If we look at their policies, it certainly does. Name issues they talk about that are constitutional. What happens when a candidate comes along and suggests we screen our policies on whether they are constitutional? They are ignored by the daily media and called kooks and extremists. Party leaders have a conniption fit, just like has been demonstrated at district conventions recently. We can only hope that equal opportunity for the exchange of ideas will be allowed at upcoming state and national conventions.

 

Both major party heads scream ” we must support and vote for the endorsed party candidate” or that “other” party will win. Just hold your nose and vote the party line. Well, rubbish. We are offered personalities, not qualified candidates. We are lured with promises of freebees. Positions on world issues are seldom discussed and we have learned that, when in office, there is no assurance candidates will follow campaign promises.

 
We must vote for candidates who believe in America, follow the US constitution and promote free enterprise and personal responsibility. It is these factors that have given us the quality of life we enjoy. If the major parties do not give us qualified candidates, find them elsewhere. That means each of us has a duty to learn all there is to know about those we vote for. Then demand honest voting. We can only be sure of our votes if they are paper votes, hand counted and supervised.

 

Aren’t you fed up with being manipulated by some elite group you have no control over?

We’ve lost our collective minds

Leave a comment

We are eight months or so away from the “08” election and I’m already sick of the whole mess.  The YouTube debates were worthless; the questions screened so thorougly that nothing of any consequence was asked.  The state by state primaries and caucuses are pointless because not one promise that is made, not one plan for the future will ever materialize by the eventual and pre-selected winner. 

Questions that should have been asked (and probably were but cut out).

Not one question about the intent to merge the US, Canada and Mexico. 

No one asked if the working groups would be abolished that are facilitating the Security & Prosperity Partnership and the construction of the NAFTA highway that will cut through the country. 

No questions about the data mining being done by various intelligence agencies or the loss of any kind of personal privacy under the guise of “national security”.

No one asked why chemtrails are reported all over the country that result in high numbers of individuals appearing in emergency rooms with sudden respiratory ailments, or why the content of water in the affected area’s suddenly contains high levels of heavy metals, and other toxins.

No one brought up the use of depleted uranium on our troops, or indigenous populations that have resulted in multiple illnesses and a high level of birth deformities.  No one mentioned the fact that DU has a life span of 300,000 years and that where it is used the land is now contaminated.

REAL ID was carefully avoided.  The fact that Homeland Security is strictly prohibited in its charter from ever establishing a form of national ID was never mentioned.

Secure Flight, a program designed to accustom US citizens to the idea of having to “present their papers” in order to travel inside the US went unnoticed. 

So many real questions that need answers were never allowed to be asked.  Which leaves me wondering just what is going to change with this election.  In all likelyhood…..nothing.

I can’t vote for Hillary because she is Bush with a brain…..making her a real danger to the country.

I can’t vote for McCain because he is promising another 100 years of war and a continuation of Bush policies. (I don’t think he is in his right mind anyway)

I can’t vote for Obama.  That is directly a result of his support for a UN based global tax and his intention to end the ownership of small arms and weapons.  Meaning he wants to get rid of the 2nd Amendment.  Even as a liberal, I can’t support that.

I can’t vote for Huckabee because I think if I hear one more fearless leader claiming that God is speaking to him directly, I will implode.

I would like to vote for Ron Paul, but the GOP will never let him on the ticket. 

Wouldn’t you just one time, like to attend a debate where you could actually get up and ask the questions you really have?  Without being pre-screened or shut out?  Can you imagine how different this whole election cycle would be if just this once we were actually able to access the candidates with real questions?  It’s never going to happen.

We have lost our minds.  We have allowed ourselves to accept the controlled speeches, the lack of real questioning, the abscence of actual debate to substitute for substantive, informed dialogue. 

Why anyone is excited or charged up about the coming election is beyond me.  Our election system is rife with voter fraud, corruption and vote tampering.  The winner has already been chosen, we just won’t know who it is until the “08” fraud is perpetrated.  The worst part of that is that there are those out there who will be jumping up and down thinking that they actually won something.

No Real Choices

Leave a comment

As the country prepares to release a sigh of relief at the prospect of George W Bush finally leaving office, I think I will continue to hold my breath.  This has been, by almost all accounts the worst presidency in our history but few of us were willing to stand up and demand that he be removed from office.   By now, we have all realized that congress has neither the will nor the courage to impeach and then prosecute this entire administration.

So what did our laziness and inattention buy us?  As a nation we stand poised on the edge of losing our sovereignty to the North American Union.  Our own government is working actively to dismantle our Republic and replace it with a dictatorship, replete with internment camps for dissenters.  We have stood by while one law after another has been passed that directly infringed on our civil liberties and rights, and have been compliant accomplices in wars of aggression against other sovereign nations.

We have become a nation of cowards.  Even when we, as a nation, have been shown the lies and deceptions used to promote these wars we cowered in fear:  better to fight them “over there” than here.  The problem is that the people we are warring with never attacked us.  So just who is it that we are so fearful of in Iraq?  We don’t know.  The government either can’t or won’t identify who this enemy was in Iraq that made us attack them.  

We are threatened continually with another attack if we don’t allow the government to illegally spy on us, to detain us without charges, to rifle through our personal business and to compile dossiers on each of us as they prepare for martial law.  And, like the dutiful sheeple we are, many of us exclaim, “Well!  If you haven’t done anything wrong you shouldn’t mind if they do that”.  Its precisely because I haven’t done anything wrong that I do mind. 

I find it strange that the only place threats of attacks ever come from are from our own government.  Could it be that in some perverse way they are telling us that they will attack us if we don’t comply?  After all, these threats are always so vague and even when they do claim to thwart an attempted attack, we never really quite know who, where, how or when.  We’re only told that the attack was thwarted……..only no one seems to know anything about it but them!

I would like to think that the election of a new president from any quarter would bring relief and a restoration of our constitution and bill of rights.  It won’t.  We are given choices of whom to vote for, but only choices based on pre-selected candidates that will continue the destruction of our country.  Which should give you a clue as to why Ron Paul is misrepresented in the polls and why his name was crossed off the ballots in New York. 

In the end, we have no real choices.  No matter who is elected, that person will simply continue with the plans to merge us with Mexico and Canada, and life as we have known will change forever.  Not one of the candidates who will appear on the ballot will do one thing to restore our government to one governed by the people. 

In the end, the fact that we have no real choices is our own fault.  It was our apathy and laziness, our inattention to the monster that our government had become that allowed any of this to happen.  We have only ourselves to blame.
