I love to watch the History channel.
Particularly, I love to watch the shows they do on UFO abductions and
religious cults. It is fascinating to study the willful self-deception
of people who are consumed with violating God’s first
commandment. You know, the one about not having any other gods before
him. The self-deceived, by the very act of their self-deception, have
created their own little universe, complete with its own set of truths
and realities, that essentially have placed themselves, or their chosen
surrogate, as the godhead of this new universe. The unprecedented
subservient and self-congratulatory celebrations that have been taking
place throughout the country and, most disturbingly, the media,
following the election of Barack Obama have a juvenile quality to it
akin to the intoxicated behavior one expects at a college football game
from the fools who paint their otherwise half naked bodies in freezing
temperatures. Devotees of the new messiah sound all too familiarly like
a man describing a “flying saucer” to a skeptical reporter.
“They mean us no harm. They’ve come to help us.” Of
course they have…
“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or
some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are
the change that we seek.” - Barack Obama
There will be no more talk of change from those abducted by the
campaign of Barack Obama. Now their leader must prove to us all that he
means us no harm. That he wants to help us. Change he promised. Now
change must be delivered. Ahh…but what change? From his first
choices for his White House staff as well as the cabinet appointments
it is pretty clear that the change isn’t going to be represented
by new faces in the administration. Nope, its the same cast of
characters we have seen before in the form of rank and file
establishment democrats. Surprised? I hope not. The American left has
been trying to remake America into a mirror image of European socialism
since the time of Franklin Roosevelt. All of the characters for that
makeover have been major players in the democratic party for a long
time. Now, with majorities in both houses of congress and the White
House in their control you are going to get the change you voted for.
Unfortunately it will be the change that everyone in the media swore
was a right wing fabrication before the election. For at least the next
two years socialism will be on the offensive in America.
Its not like this hasn’t happened before. !992, 1976 and 1964
all come to mind. However the democrats would have you believe this is
more akin to 1932 when the country truly was in dire straits. However a
quick check of the facts not only shows this to be untrue but belies
the true nature of the so-called economic crisis that supposedly holds
us in its grasp. We are constantly told that unemployment is a major
problem yet is it? Sure, the unemployment figures are on the rise but
they are only at 6.5%. Compare that with the 7.5% rate in 1992 or the
7.1%rate in 1976 and things don’t seem so out of control.
Certainly they aren’t at the 25% levels of 1932-33!
How about the inflation rate? Certainly that will betray the total
mess we are constantly being told that the Bush administration is
leaving for the messiah to fix. Well the “misery index” as
it came to be known during the Carter administration shows a somewhat
high rate of 4.9% for the month of October. Although for this year and
the previous year it has been between 3.3% and 3.8%. Not particularly
calamitous when compared with 3.38% of 1992 or even the 5.75% of 1976.
Although it should be pointed out that four years of democratic
policies such as the always prescribed, yet never successful,
“stimulus packages” improved the inflation rate to a
whopping 13.58% by the end of the Carter administration in 1980. Did I
say improvement? Pardon me. Still it is nowhere near the disaster of
the 1931-32 situation which saw 33% DEFLATION. This was largely
assisted by a meddling Roosevelt administration’s insistence on
raising interest rates. Carter himself repeated this act of genius
during his administration getting them up to a whopping 21.5%. That
will kill any economy. By contrast the Bush administration has managed
this so-called “crisis” by reducing interest rates from
4.75 to 1.5% over the last year. No, Mr. Obama doesn’t have that
much of a challenge no matter what the media tells you. Some people
might even say the fundamentals of our economy are sound. Oh wait,
somebody did say that. He lost the election to Mr. Charisma. Economic
markets work just fine, its the government that is the problem. Giving
the government more influence will only make it worse.
“We are facing the greatest economic challenge of our
lifetime and we are going to have to act swiftly to resolve it.” - President-Elect Barack Obama
No, we are not facing an economic “crisis.” We are in
the throes of an elaborately planned scheme to gain control of our
economy. Entirely planned by and executed by the democrats. Does
anybody else find the timing of this event just a little bit
conspicuous? Keep in mind that this situation was entirely the result
of policies enacted during democratic administrations that insisted on
forcing banks and other lending facilities to provide loans to those
they knew could not repay them. Conveniently this calamity raises its
head a few weeks before a major election. Before you accuse me of going
too far on a “conspiracy” bender it is wise to remember
that only 5% of mortgages are in foreclosure. It was the excessive
selling, trading, insuring and other fantastic pursuits of this
marginal part of the market that drove the credit market to a halt. Do
you believe that at least 5% of the people who work on Wall Street, or
in the banking industry could be democrats? Yea…its possible. If
it is true would it not be likely that once Barack Obama takes office
all this will magically right itself with him getting all the glory?
Perhaps, but don’t be so sure. Remember the name of this game is
regulation and government control.
This is not necessarily about economics at all. That was just a tool
used to get Barack Obama elected. Just as the economy was used to bring
Bill Clinton into office back in 1992. Hey, it worked before. Why not
use it again? It worked again. Yet there is a different feeling to it
this time. Take yourself back to England in 1945. The British people
showed their appreciation of Winston Churchill’s war leadership
by voting him out of office and voting in socialists. This in spite of
all he had done for them in his conduct of the war against Nazi
Germany. Why? The socialists promised “freedom from want”
by offering all sorts of “something-for-nothing” goodies
like government guaranteed employment, nationalized universal health
care, and a cradle-to-grave welfare state. Sound familiar? Churchill,
on the other hand, appeared to offer only “more of the
same.” With the war concluded the “God and country”
message no longer resonated with an electorate that could not perceive
any immediate threat. The Soviet Union notwithstanding, the war weary
electorate wanted hope and change. They got it. At least their
population truly did have a reason to feel “war weary.” I
grow tired of hearing how the United States is war weary when the only
people who have had to make any sacrifice for the “War On
Terror” are the soldiers and their families.
“It’s time to be patriotic, time to jump in, time to
be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut.” - Vice President elect Joe Biden’ attitude on paying taxes.
In 2008 we had an electorate blinded by the success (yes I said
success) of the Bush administration’s ability to protect the
homeland from further terrorist attacks thus deluding itself that no
further realistic danger exists. Many on the political left have
concluded that the “War On Terror” is itself a myth. The
electorate was further blinded by an economic “crisis”
designed and delivered by the democrats who then exploited it for their
own gain as their messianic candidate offered his own version of a
“cradle-to-grave” welfare state. Hell, he was even
HONEST about it by outwardly saying he wanted to use the tax system to
“spread the wealth.” And there is where the treachery
hides! 41% of whites, 56% of blacks, 59% of American Indians and
40% of Asians and pacific Islanders pay absolutely NO federal income
taxes. They have ZERO tax liability. Yet each and every one of them had
an equal voice at the ballot box as those who do fund the federal
government. The Obama campaign, and its community organizing surrogates
such as ACORN, trolled endlessly through these communities looking for
people to register to vote and secured their votes by promising them a
tax cut! When people who don’t pay taxes are offered a tax
cut this is called buying an election! It is estimated that 49% of
folks voting this time do not pay income taxes and voted to steal money
from the taxpayers to put into their own pockets. Joe Biden thinks that
the rest of us should see this blatant purchase of votes with our money
as “patriotic.”
This is a complete disenfranchisement of the taxpayers voice in
government and goes against every principle of the American Revolution!
Now we can be outvoted by people who have nothing at stake in the
government except what the government can give them. This is an
intolerable situation that a moral and decent people can not and will
not tolerate. This country was formed by men who were paying taxes to a
king that was not giving them a voice in the government. At least King
George was supplying an army to defend the colonies. What do all of
these voters that ACORN uncovered contribute? Nothing! They are
parasites. It is all well and good to be charitable to those in need
but now we find ourselves at the mercy of the “useless” and
the “pathetic” who are being encouraged to use the ballot
box as a means of enslaving us. Now they dictate tax policy to us? Lets
face it, in the last election the taxpayer was told to send his money
to Washington and shut up. If they want more money, they will take more
money. They do NOT answer to us and they will NOT listen to us. That
will be very apparent, very fast.
Our founding fathers believed in the concept of a “better
man” and conversely of lesser ones. It was never their intention
that the lesser ones would be granted the opportunity to vote…at
all! Let alone use the election process to lord over better men. There
is a reason why the American revolution was a uniquely successful and
enduring one compared to other “revolutions” throughout
history. It was not an uprising of the downtrodden, pathetic and poor
masses but instead was a revolt from the productive sector of society.
It began as a taxpayer revolt! It is time for us to stand up for the
idea of voter reform. There is no reason for a taxpayer and a parasite
to have an equal voice in government, and we must put a stop to it. If
we fail to corral these parasites we guarantee ourselves an
irresponsible spendthrift government. The parasites know no other way.
We have become a country that fears freedom, because freedom has
consequences. It produces both excellence and failure in equal measure.
The coward cannot risk failure so a system like socialism appeals to
him. It creates an atmosphere where there is always safety in numbers
and the outcomes are always equal. That’s why you hear socialists
throw the word “fair” around so often. According to the
socialist, the only fair game is a tie game. They divide us into small
“minorities” that need protection and then offer to provide
that protection. The price they extract, however, is our individualism.
They have no use for individuals. All of us must work for the good of
the “collective.” That’s also why in our socialist
run public school system the only thing our children learn is to
tolerate everything and criticize nothing in the name of “moral
equivalency.” Everything is of equal worth. If they are lucky
enough to get a student loan that they will resent having to pay back,
then they will go to college and get a degree in
“self-esteem.” And these are the “smart” people
who tell the rest of us that voting for Obama was the right thing to
do, though they can’t explain why.
“Obama stood against the fierce tide of history and achieved the unimaginable” - Rev. Raphael G. Warnock
Huh? Was he watching the same presidential election that the rest of
us were? The worst element of this great hypnotization of America was
the way the media, in all its forms, openly promoted the messianic
candidate by creating the illusion of some great redemption the country
would go through by electing the first African-American president. The
“fierce tide of history” was working for Obama thanks to
the blind loyalty of the loyal democratic sycophants in the mainstream
media. They didn’t report the news, they created the news and in
so doing, they made Obama the President. A great example of that was
hearing Tom Brokaw say after the election that no one really knows
Obama. Well if the press had done their job everyone would know they
just elected the least experienced and most liberal president in the
history of the country. Tom, you even had control of one of the
debates! Why didn’t YOU find out who he was and what he was
about? Everyone was swept away by this great fictional story about a
man who truly is not great. Like the flying saucers on the History
Channel, there was nothing there…but nonetheless everyone swears
they saw it…and of course he wants to help us. He means us no
harm.
“Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small.
The purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince,
nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it
corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain
silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse
when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and
for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to
co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself.
One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even
destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think
if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is
intended to.” - Theodore Dalrymple
Like another well known hypnotizer of the masses, Obama likes to
write books about himself. Books in which he reveals much about what he
will do in office. He clearly stated that he sought out Marxist
teachers in college. What kind of person would do that? A Marxist! Of
course you can’t say that because the democrats, in all their
politically correct glory, ingeniously nominated Barack Obama entirely
because he was an African-American. It proved to be a useful novelty.
Not only did it seduce the media with the foolish illusion that this
was a great moment in history, but it also insulated their candidate
from the severe questioning and criticism that is due a presidential
nominee. Say anything they don’t like, and you are branded a
racist. You can’t argue with success though. It worked. The
public did not vote for Barack Obama. They voted for the idea of Barack
Obama. Even Obama himself doesn’t know what that entails, but it
sets a lot of people up for a great disappointment.
Of course the world is in love with Barack Obama. There are all
these wonderful stories about how his election will improve
America’s image abroad and the celebrations overseas often look
as juvenile as the ones here. However all is not as they would have you
believe. World leaders like Vladmir Putin, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Hugo
Chavez are celebrating the naive and inexperienced Obama’s
arrival on the world scene much the same way a school of sharks
celebrates the arrival of a naive seal swimming into waters it is
likewise unprepared for. The only question is which one will sink their
teeth into him first. Unfortunately, when Obama is devoured, so are we
all. Nonetheless expect him to always remain outwardly calm, cool and
collected. Thats all he has. When the next terrorist attack occurs, and
it will happen swiftly after he assumes control, expect Obama to
do…nothing. At least not to the terrorists and those who support
them. That’s what Joe Biden meant when he said that an Obama
administration would be challenged and their immediate response would
not look like the right one. There will essentially be no response,
just as their was none for the constant string of them through the
Clinton administration. A little bit of fear is good to keep the
population in line. Perhaps that is what Obama meant when he said:
“We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order
to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set.
We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s
just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
Hmm, kind of reminds you of the kind of security force that came to
be in 1930’s era Germany. How well did that work out? You
can’t make this stuff up.
Don’t expect Obama to solve the so-called financial crisis
either. The stock market has plummeted since his election in a way that
is unprecedented in its history. Obama promised to tax the rich. See
the rich take their money and run…and with them goes the jobs
that you have, and could have had, if that money stayed in the market.
He promised to “spread the wealth.” Unfortunately there
won’t be any wealth to dole out. Four years from now when he runs
for re-election you can expect him to still be blaming George Bush for
what will then be his own failures. Maintaining a constant state of
crisis is necessary to convince us to part with our liberties you
understand. Its interesting that one of the first ideas being tossed
about is the prospect of the government taking over everyone’s
401K plans. Oh, it will be voluntary at first. But as the crisis
lingers and all that real money is just sitting there…
Of course there will be other crises to contend with. Global
warming, energy, health care, and of course the imposition of the
“fairness doctrine” to suppress any criticism of the
administration’s policies. All criticism henceforth shall be
referred to as “hate speech.” A veritable cornucopia of
socialism is on the horizon. Individual rights will soon be an
endangered species.
I just love listening to Sunday morning news pundits as they try to
figure out how the Obama administration will govern. They say silly
things like Obama “moved” to the center during the campaign
so thats how he will govern. No he won’t. He didn’t
“move” anywhere. He told us what we wanted to hear so we
would vote for him! He told us what he was told to say. Obama is no
leader. He is a follower. He will do what he has always done. He will
be manipulated by the extreme left of the democratic party because he
has no experience at doing anything else. When Nancy Pelosi and Harry
Reid send him socialist policies to sign into law you will hear Barack
Obama say “Yes we can.” If his desire for a national
security force is an example of his own thinking, Reid and Pelosi might
turn out to be conservative by comparison. How’s that for a
thought?
Yes, it is entirely possible the United States of America died
November 4th. We have elected a man whose past associations would have
prohibited him from getting an FBI security clearance and given him
control of OUR security. This was achieved largely through a process of
political correctness, media manipulation, charismatic hypnosis and of
course, trolling for the votes of parasites with the expectation
of latching them onto a government nipple from which they will
forever vote to stay attached. If we accept this we are finished. We
must reform the voting system and restore the greater influence where
it belongs: to the productive, working taxpayer. We no longer hold the
American voter to a high standard. We can therefore expect to get the
government we deserve. We certainly did this time. One that will
reflect the parasitic values that elected it. This election was a
national hypnosis, deception and disenfranchisement of Biblical
proportions. One destined to make a fine program on someones History
Channel in the future. Perhaps with a notorious Styx song about angels
and a UFO abduction as its soundtrack. Of course, they meant us no
harm. They were here to help us. Abandon all hope, for change is in the
wind…
I’m sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea
I’ve got to be free, free to face the life that’s ahead of me
On board, I’m the captain, so climb aboard
Well search for tomorrow on every shore
And I’ll try, oh lord, I’ll try to carry on
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we’ll try best that we can to carry on
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said
They said come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
