WHEN TOLERANCE KILLS

Political correctness is in the air, and fear of the truth is everywhere. In the aftermath of the recent attack on soldiers at Fort Hood, Texas, President Obama went out of his way not to use the word “terrorism” to describe the massacre. And for good reason, the fantasy that there is no “war on terror” is one of the quintessential cogs in the left’s governing apparatus. Without which, all the other gears in their machine will not turn. It shall be interesting to watch the president and his administration scramble to blame the military and the operations in Afghanistan and Iraq for this incident. They will blame everyone…except those responsible.

In fact, the Fort Hood shooting is the first successful terrorist attack on American soil since 9-11. But Obama, his hands soiled with the responsibility of dis-assembling Bush era protections against such attacks, is attempting make it look like a run-of-the-mill maniac with a gun shooting. The politicization of the massacre was swift and sure as the FBI, within hours of the shootings, decried that this was not terrorist related even before FBI agents arrived at the scene.

Ever the loyal sycophants, the media too has been downplaying any relationship to the attacker, Major Nidal Malik Hasan, to organized terror groups. But alas, not only do such connections exist, they are damning:

Hasan, the sole suspect in the massacre of 13 fellow US soldiers in Texas, attended the controversial Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Great Falls, Virginia, in 2001 at the same time as two of the September 11 terrorists, The Sunday Telegraph has learnt. His mother’s funeral was held there in May that year.

The preacher at the time was Anwar al-Awlaki, an American-born Yemeni scholar who was banned from addressing a meeting in London by video link in August because he is accused of supporting attacks on British troops and backing terrorist organisations. -The London Telegraph

It is a shame that one has to consult foreign journalists to get an honest assessment of such critical elements of this story. This man was a follower of the same Imam as several of the 9/11 attackers. Some would say this alone qualifies as a reason to look for a possible terrorist link. Yet, as always, there is more:

Hasan’s eyes “lit up” when he mentioned his deep respect for al-Awlaki’s teachings, according to a fellow Muslim officer at the Fort Hood base in Texas, the scene of Thursday’s horrific shooting spree. As investigators look at Hasan’s motives and mindset, his attendance at the mosque could be an important piece of the jigsaw. Al-Awlaki moved to Dar al-Hijrah as imam in January, 2001, from the west coast, and three months later the September 11 hijackers Nawaf al-Hamzi and Hani Hanjour began attending his services. A third hijacker attended his services in California.

Hasan was praying at Dar al-Hijrah at about the same time, and the FBI will now want to investigate whether he met the two terrorists. Charles Allen, a former under-secretary for intelligence at the Department of Homeland Security, has described al-Awlaki, who now lives in Yemen, as an “al-Qaeda supporter, and former spiritual leader to three of the September 11 hijackers… who targets US Muslims with radical online lectures encouraging terrorist attacks from his new home in Yemen”.

Last night Hasan remained in a coma under guard at a military hospital in San Antonio, Texas, and was said to be in a “stable” condition. Born in America to a Palestinian family, Hasan, 39, was an army psychiatrist who had chosen to sign up for the US military against his parents’ wishes. But he turned into an angry critic of the wars America was waging in Iraq and Afghanistan and had tried in vain to negotiate his discharge.

He counselled soldiers returning from the front line and told relatives that he was horrified at the prospect of a deployment to Afghanistan later this year – his first time in a combat zone. Whether due to his personal convictions, his stress over his deployment or other reasons, Hasan is alleged to have snapped and gone on a murderous rampage with a powerful semi-automatic handgun after shouting “Allahu Akhbar” (“God is great”), according to survivors. He had earlier given away copies of the Koran to neighbours. -The London Telegraph

Major Nidal Malik Hasan screamed “Allahu Akhbar” and began a shooting massacre that killed 13 soldiers and wounded 30 more. The fact that he acted alone would not make him any less of a terrorist. Lone suicide bombers are the norm in most Islamic terrorist attacks. That Hasan was a trained soldier would certainly make the use of firearms a somewhat more reasonable method of operation. The difference between a stressed out or delusional psychopath and a terrorist is political motivation and the political motivation is certain. Also certain is the unfortunate fact that Major Hasan had been communicating recently with his former Imam, Anwar al-Awlahi who currently resides in Yemen and acts as a recruiter for…Al-Qaeda!

His “Allahu Akhbar” declarations would certainly indicate that he was motivated by the Islamic fanatacism that Obama and his media bootlickers are bending over backwards to deny. This, of course, recalls President Clinton’s deliberate and misleading response to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Like all democrats, he viewed the bombing as a merely a crime, promising to find those guilty and punish them, rather than to attack the international groups that funded and enabled them. We have come full circle to the delusional world of leftist fools who act as though 9/11 never happened. Which, of course, only guarantees something equally disastrous will happen again.

Many people, including myself, have lamented and warned that the the weakening of Bush administration anti-terrorist policies would leave us vulnerable to be attacked again. Now it has happened and our president, fully believing that the only enemy to the United States is the American people, is doing everything he can to delegitimize the terrorist threat in order keep his domestic political agenda front and center. Depriving Americans of their liberties through the confiscation of the health care system and redistributing U.S. sovereignty and wealth through a fraudulent carbon-tax scheme supercedes defending the nation and its antiquated constitution in his eyes.

Lets face it, when the U.S. military is targeted within our own borders, our enemies do NOT fear us. As certainly as the October 12, 2000 attack on the USS Cole was a warning that our Islamic enemies were not impressed with America’s ability to thwart their actions, so too is Major Hasan’s attack on Fort Hood a precursor to an even greater and imminent attack. They our watching our for our response. What will it be?

The soldiers killed in this vicious attack were murdered by the president and his follower’s allegiance to the myths of tolerance, diversity and political correctness. As I have documented in previous writings, many of our soldiers are killed by people masquerading as their friends and allies. It is perhaps an unavoidable reality when an Iraqi soldier who goes into battle with Americans suddenly reveals his true allegiance by turning and firing on our soldiers. You cannot tell who is a jihadist just by looking at them. Al Qaeda has long encouraged infiltration into the foolishly politically correct West. However, this killer was no surprise:

In the months leading to Thursday’s shooting spree that left 13 people dead and 29 others wounded, Hasan raised eyebrows with comments that the war on terror was “a war on Islam” and wrestled with what to tell fellow Muslim solders who had their doubts about fighting in Islamic countries. “The system is not doing what it’s supposed to do,” said Dr. Val Finnell, who complained to administrators at a military university about what he considered Hasan’s “anti-American” rants. “He at least should have been confronted about these beliefs, told to cease and desist, and to shape up or ship out.”

Finnell studied with Hasan from 2007-2008 in the master’s program in public health at the military’s Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Md., where Hasan persistently complained about perceived anti-Muslim sentiment in the military and injected his politics into courses where they had no place. “In retrospect, I’m not surprised he did it,” Finnell said of the shootings. “I had real questions about what his priorities were, what his beliefs were.” -Associated Press

It’s called “discrimination,” and it is exactly what was called for here. Too many people hold onto foolish ideas of tolerance and political correctness and those are the very things that led to this massacre. The saddest part of this story is the revelation that many soldiers who heard the rantings of this Islamic supremacist dared not report what they knew in fear of being labeled a bigot and accused of discrimination. Even worse the Secretary of the Army had this to say after the tragedy:

“I’m concerned that this increased speculation could cause a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers. And I’ve asked our Army leaders to be on the lookout for that. There are about 3,000 Muslims on active duty military service or in the National Guard or reserve forces, They remain a small minority within the U.S. military.” -General George Casey

WHAT!!!!! A fully indoctrinated Islamic supremacist infiltrates the United States Army and kills American soldiers and the army’s top general goes on every major Sunday news show to say he fears a “backlash” against the one thousand Muslim soldiers who currently serve? If there is one group of people who have shown they can keep a level head in these situations it is those serving in our military. We need to stick to the issue at hand instead of fabricating a “backlash” that has not and will not happen. In fact, we need to act in a way that will protect our soldiers from the “backlashes” of future turncoats.

In WW II our ancestors had the wisdom to disallow American’s of Japanese descent from serving in the Japanese theater, and even went so far as to imprison many until their backgrounds could be investigated during the early stages of the war. Obama and his ilk look down on these decisions as discriminatory and bigoted, yet it was entirely reasonable given the suddenness of the Japanese attack and the problems inherent with diverse and multicultural societies.

I tell you we are NOT better than our ancestors. We are weakened by political correctness because we haven’t had the courage to question Muslims in our society…and we are paying for it. It may be true that not every Muslim is a terrorist in waiting, and many are perfectly loyal Americans. But Major Hasan wasn’t, and it doesn’t take a psychological degree to see that he was a threat. What more could he have done to draw attention to himself? Declare war on America? Obama has done that!

Major Hasan was definitely wrong about one thing. Presidents Bush and Obama have gone out of their way to make it clear that the “War on Terror” was NOT a war on Islam. That is why it is doomed to fail. Too many ignorant people inflate their opinion of themselves and their intellect by accepting a foolish moral equivalency of Islam with other religions, particularly Christianity. It is a fool’s lie. Islam is at war with us and has been for 1200 years. It only understands dominance and submission. Tolerance to Islam is dangerous. Thanks to Nadal Hasan, we have learned that lesson yet again. Therefore, what we need is an open declaration of “War on Islam.” Political correctness be damned! Islam is not compatible with Western Civilization. Muslims know this, why do we insist on accepting tolerance, diversity, equality and political correctness mythology? They are all false gods.

“Nidal Hassan is a hero. He is a man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against his own people. How can there be any dispute about the virtue of what [Hasan] has done? In fact the only way a Muslim could Islamically justify serving as a soldier in the U.S. army is if his intention is to follow the footsteps of men like Nidal.” -Anwar al-Awlaki’s response to the massacre

Discrimination. Its what people do…when they KNOW better. How long does it take for some people to learn?

THE LAND OF MISFIT LOINS

It is becoming increasingly clear that a certain, extremely vocal, portion of the public defines freedom and equality entirely on how much “tolerance” they can extort from the general public for their lascivious desire to promote the unrestricted exhibition and exploitation of their’s, and other’s, loins in and out of the public sphere. It is the classic example of mistaking immorality for freedom, and in their belligerent ignorance they see modesty, piety and bigotry as essentially the same. Our failure to endorse their increasingly ludicrous demands for approval of their “lifestyles” often leads to a display of some of the most pathetic adolescent behavior imaginable. In fact such behavior was unimaginable just a generation ago. When it comes to boorish behavior, nobody, and I mean NOBODY tops the advocates for the homosexual agenda in this country.

When most of us were children we were given a simple test to determine our basic cognitive skills. It was a simple one that I am sure most of you remember. It almost qualified as a toy. You had several pegs of varying shapes and a board with holes in it that likewise consisted of the same varying shapes. You simply had to match the pegs to their appropriate holes. For most of us putting the square peg in the square hole was not a monumental accomplishment. There were, of course, many of our fellow children who could not accomplish this feat however, and they insisted on trying to mismatch the pegs and the holes. Although trying to put a square peg into a round hole was not something that should stigmatize a child for life, we reasonably expect that an attempt should be made to correct the child. Perhaps we would even dare to “teach” the child to recognize the shapes and to look carefully to match them. How many of you remember your teachers telling you it was equally correct to mismatch a square peg into a round hole as to match a round peg into a round hole? It didn’t happen, and for good reason. It would be foolish. Well, we’ve got there now. Not only are we being forced accept this kind of foolishness, we are told it is a noble cause to promote such nonsense. In fact if we don’t support it we are bigots.

The successful passage of the Proposition 8 amendment banning homosexual marriages in California has awakened the “enfant terrible” in a wide range of people who assure us that they are the “enlightened” ones that know what is best for all of us. Unable to accept that, yet again, one of the most liberal states in the country has failed to endorse square peg to round hole marriages, homosexuals have taken to the streets protesting and attacking people and businesses who supported the amendment and, in their most ill-mannered demonstrations, they have even trespassed into churches to deliver vulgar rants against those who fail to acknowledge the nobility of their demands. This proves once and for all that tolerance really is a one way street. And guess which way its going…(insert obvious AC/DC song here).

Apparently when it comes to the issue of homosexual marriage, the issue is already decided, at least according to the advocates of this preposterousness. The vote was just supposed to be a formality as, of course, there was always only ONE right answer. Six thousand years of human history be damned, these people have figured out that everyone who came before them was mistaken and there is absolutely nothing wrong with these mismatched unions. In fact, they tell us we are depriving them of their RIGHT to be married. Where did this “right” materialize from? Well, one argument stems from the Civil Rights movement of the 1950’s-60’s.

While attempting to equate their struggle with that of the African-American people may have seemed like a good idea, they have in fact offended the black community. One’s sexual identity isn’t so identifiable as one’s race. Black people, once enslaved and declared less than human, were still being deprived of basic human dignities such as access to education and other services as well as fair treatment in almost every area of society. It was not something they could have avoided or hidden, even if they had wished to. Homosexuals have never been enslaved or declared less than human, nor are they being being legally discriminated against for their particular sexual preferences. Even if such things were to occur, they have legal remedies available to them. The lack of those legal remedies were at the heart of the Civil Rights struggle all along. The African-American community is rightfully offended that homosexuals would dare equate the quest for same sex marriage with their struggle for Civil Rights. Is it any wonder that 7 out of 10 African-Americans voted against homosexual marriage? They have every right to be offended! It is no surprise that this backfired on on the supporters of homosexual marriage.

Opponents of Proposition 8 like to bring up the court case of  Loving v. Virginia. This was a 1967 decision finding that marriage was a basic human right and that there was no legitimate state interest in banning interracial marriage. Let us also remember this is still a square peg to square hole relationship, the colors do not alter the fact that all the working parts fit together naturally as they were intended by God or nature. Take your pick. Therefore the arguments for interracial marriages CANNOT be applied to homosexual marriages because you are still dealing with a man and a woman marriage. This is the basic relationship that results in traditionally accepted families that produce children. It is the tried and true foundation of every successful society. Certainly our society has an interest in the upbringing of children, as this process produces new citizens, and guides them to maturity. Therefore our society can, and has, decided that the traditional family is the proven successful model for raising a family. The foundation of that family being a marriage between a man and a woman. It is for that reason that we have chosen to honor these traditional marriages with special status.

In the aftermath of the successful win for Proposition 8, California Attorney General Jerry Brown said he would fight to uphold the initiative, even though he personally voted against it. This, of course, was before the adolescent tantrums of Proposition 8 opponents went into high gear in an attempt to extort their will, over that of California’s voters, through intimidation. We have all seen the pictures of protesters attacking churches, demonstrating outside the homes, and even attempting to destroy the businesses of those known to have supported Proposition 8. They seem to have taken particular interest in both Rick Warren’s Saddleback Church as well as the Mormon Church. Protest is a healthy thing for the democratic process, but this has long since crossed the line into violent intimidation. Trespassing onto the property, and into the services, of these churches is unacceptable behavior reminiscent of Nazi brown-shirts. The Nazi’s laid a fine blueprint for a minority group wishing to impose it’s will on others.

To be sure, the churches have handled these situations with remarkable grace and tolerance given the fact that these attacks represent a textbook example of intolerance on the part of homosexuals. In their eyes, there was only one right way to view this issue, and the voters of California failed to get it right. They therefore see it as their right to extract a certain amount of revenge against Christians for opposing them. As always, opponents of homosexual marriage are portrayed as bigots that are totally undeserving of respect. Their point of view is constantly and falsely being equated with racism. The media, as always, seems willingly pliable to promote wishes of the homosexual agenda.

The tantrums of the advocates for homosexual marriage may not be particularly effective against Christians and other adults, but they have apparently worked on the California Attorney General. After initially insisting he would enforce the will of the people, he has apparently had a change of heart:

“Proposition 8 must be invalidated because the amendment process cannot be used to extinguish fundamental constitutional rights without compelling justification. The courts have previously said the right of a person to marry is protected as one of those inalienable rights. The question at the center of the gay marriage cases is whether rights secured under the state Constitution’s safeguard of liberty as an ‘inalienable’ right may intentionally be withdrawn from a class of persons by an initiative amendment.”

“Although voters are allowed to amend other parts of the Constitution by majority vote, to use the ballot box to take away an “inalienable” right would establish a “tyranny of the majority,” which the Constitution was designed, in part, to prevent, he wrote. “For we are talking, necessarily, about rights of individuals or groups against the larger community, and against the majority, even an overwhelming majority, of the society as a whole.” - California Attorney General Jerry Brown

Of course, opponents of Proposition 8 are elated at the Attorney General’s chameleon-like ability to adapt to the environment of hostility that they have created, and have taken to calling the Attorney General “a leader of courage and conviction.” In truth he is neither courageous nor a man of conviction. He is a man betraying his duty to his office. It is the Attorney General’s job to uphold the law, not to advocate for its change. Now he is attempting to use his office and the courts, yet again, to make homosexual marriages legal.

Does a man have an “inalienable right” to marry another man? Of course not, for if he did it would have long since been customary for such unions to be accepted. There is no “right” to marry. It is licensed by the state. Rights are not, nor do they need to be licensed!  And here is the interesting fly in the ointment: homosexuals haven’t been banned from getting married. Any homosexual person can marry somebody of the opposite sex. They often do. What they are demanding are special rights to marry within the same sex. This is not in any way an acceptable definition of an “inalienable right.” If the Attorney General were truly worried about tyranny, he would recognize it as coming from a minority group forcibly imposing its unnatural perversions onto the rest of us. We are repeatedly told we have absolutely no right to reject this perverse behavior. It is us and our world-view that they are demanding be changed. This is the tyranny of political correctness. So who is the real tyrant here?

In 1973, The American Psychiatric Association (APA) removed homosexuality as a mental disorder from the APA’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-II). This decision was a significant victory for homosexual activists and they have continued to claim that the APA based their decision on new scientific discoveries that proved that homosexual behavior is normal and should be affirmed in our culture. This is a fine example of scientific and academic arrogance. For all of human history homosexual behavior has been considered “deviant” and abnormal but now these fine fellows have decided that not only is it normal, but that we must embrace and endorse this behavior based entirely on their “scholarly” recommendation? Give me a break. So everyone else throughout history, every culture, creed, religion and science was in error and these “enlightened” fellows have “discovered” the real truth? Sorry, but no sale.

If we were to accept that people are born homosexual and that they are powerless to resist their sexual urges we would set history BACKWARDS a thousand years. Yes, I said BACKWARDS. Endorsing this line of thought is not progressive at all. We like to think that we can be anything we want to be. We believe in neither “birthrights” or penalizing someone because of who or what condition they were born into. We judge people by what they are, not what they came from. Yet the homosexual agenda claims the homosexual is born that way and can be nothing else. They likewise perceive sexual preference as their all-encompassing identity and as such it essentially becomes a self-imposed penalty. That’s as intolerable as it is un-American. You are what you make of yourself. You are not born locked into a homosexual lifestyle. I reject that. If you cannot choose, you cannot be free. Be very careful what you claim you want. It is the helpless that are the first victims of an abuse of power, and how often have homosexuals been persecuted for just that perceived helplessness? If someone wishes to live as, and be, a homosexual, by all means let them. But let them do it as a free citizen making  a free choice. That choice is their right and neither I nor anyone else should dispute it. However if someone insists that they have no choice, and homosexuality was forced upon them by genetics or some other pseudo-scientific mythology, then they are just pathetic fools. I have no respect for that. Whining and making excuses deserves, and gets, nothing.

Which brings me around to the brouhaha following the president-elect’s invitation to Pastor Rick Warren to give the invocation at his inauguration ceremony. Homosexuals are in a rage over this in spite of the fact that President-Elect Obama has stated repeatedly that he does not support gay marriage. He holds exactly the same position on the issue that Rick Warren holds. John Cloud, an openly homosexual writer for Time Magazine even went as far as to call the future President a…you guessed it…bigot.

“Gays and lesbians are angry that Barack Obama has honored Warren, but they shouldn’t be surprised. Obama has proved himself repeatedly to be a very tolerant, very rational-sounding sort of bigot.” - John Cloud

What was Rick Warren’s great crime, other than obviously opposing homosexual marriage? He infuriated homosexual rights activists with a comment  made in a TV interview. He compared two homosexuals getting married to a brother marrying a sister or an adult marrying a child. Warren even went as far as to say “Certain body parts are meant to fit together.” Kinda makes you think about square pegs belonging in square holes doesn’t it? He rightfully pointed out that once you accept one of these taboo relationships as a “marriage” you are conceding that “alternative” definitions of marriage are acceptable. Once you make that concession you will be on that infamous slippery slope that will lead to further concessions for polygamy, polyandry, or even incest. After all, what logical argument can you hold against those practices that would not apply to homosexuality? It is advantageous for society to encourage the restraint of sexual activity and keep it within boundaries that prevent us from destroying one another. Failure to encourage such restraint will result in a society that tolerates everything. We have a name for such a society. It’s called the Animal Kingdom, a place where the strong are predators that consume the weak and no creature has any rights except those enforced by tooth and claw. The quality of a society is not determined by what it tolerates but by what it does NOT tolerate. Remember that!

Lets make one thing nice and sparkling clear for our homosexual friends. Rick Warren, and all of us who consider ourselves Christians do not have to spend any time writhing in thought over this issue. For us it is pretty simple:

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Leviticus 18:22

If we truly are Christians, then we do not have the authority to tolerate, accept or condone homosexual behavior or homosexual marriage. We belong to the Kingdom of God. We have humbled ourself before him and accept his wisdom and his way. Our approval is NOT our property to give. Lashing out at Christians will not gain homosexuals favor with us. They should never expect us to endorse the homosexual lifestyle as an “equal” to the traditional family. It isn’t going to happen, not even by force!

It is one thing to tolerate the private choices made by free individuals. No one is out to suppress the behavior of consenting adults in the privacy of their own lives and no one should. Homosexuals argue that their “unions” are loving and committed relationships. Whoop de doo da day. I’m happy for them. This misses the point entirely. Marriage is a manifestation of not only the acceptance of the traditional family ideal, but also our desire to encourage it and create the conditions that will make it flourish. This is done for the betterment of the society as a whole, not because we are impressed with the fact that a couple loves each other. Society doesn’t care about that. Endorsing and encouraging homosexual marriages will benefit no one but homosexuals.

There are many reasons to oppose homosexual marriages. The square peg will never belong in the round hole. There is no new found wisdom or understanding about it. Homosexuals who insist on continuing to try to ram these “square peg to round hole” unions down our throats are acting out of pure SELFISHNESS, and nothing more. Championing homosexual marriage is not a noble pursuit and no-one needs flatter themselves into thinking they are more “enlightened” than the rest of us just because they are willing to tolerate or accept it.

Like it or not, the Bible does have the best warning for those who insist that homosexual marriage is just another choice of equal value to traditional marriage:

“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the LORD of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
” - Isaiah 5:20-24

No my arrogant friends,  if you support the folly of homosexual marriage you are not wise, educated, enlightened or tolerant. You are just the latest in the long history of mankind to foolishly “call evil good and good evil.” We have seen your kind before, and you keep coming to the same result. No matter how hard you try, you cannot make putting a square peg in a round hole a “good” thing. There is no nobility in foolishness and there is no such thing as a noble fool…just a fool.

THE DISENFRANCHISEMENT OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION

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
