I know the Marxists controlling our government are whittling away the greatness of our once proud country. But the reason Marxists attempt to squash religion is because little things can cause a great deal of inspiration. And a little bit of inspiration can be a powerful thing. While America is being destroyed by idiots on the West Coast and the East Coast (and by a few in the middle) the fire of freedom has yet to be extinguished in a great deal of Americans. And America will never truly die if She resides in our hearts, regardless of where this country heads.
To that effect I offer you perhaps one of the best renditions of our National Anthem, performed by a rocking young band who's goal is to fan the flames of American patriotism. Facebook even tried blocking this band's videos, claiming it was just a "glitch" when enough people rose a stink. Now, thanks to Facebook's liberal tendencies, many more people have heard about this band and are sharing their songs. This is Madison Rising with a rendition of The Star-Spangled Banner that will bring a tear to any patriot's eye. Enjoy, and God bless the USA!
In the following pages I offer nothing more than simple facts, plain arguments, and common sense:

AAP says Gay Marriage good for kids, but is it really?
The American Academy of Pediatrics made news this week by coming out in support of Gay Marriage, stating that it is fine for children to grow up in a home with a same sex couples. Their reasoning? "'On the basis of a review of extensive scientific literature.'" In other words, they found "scientific" literature that backed up their already formed belief and used that as proof that their belief is right. This is what passes for "science" nowadays.
But the "literature" they based their outcome on only took into account things like small children not caring who gives them food, as long as someone gives them food. And that seems to be pretty much common sense. But what about older children; teenagers; young adults? Those people still considered "children" yet developing adult tendencies based on their lifestyle. Did anyone actually bother to question adults who became fully grown as children of two same sex parents? Well I'm glad you asked, because someone did!
While most studies of children's well being inside same sex households focuses on young children, there are studies that have focused on the now adult children raised by same sex couples. And those studies conclude that:
"Taken together, the findings of the NFSS disprove the claim that there are no differences between children raised by parents who have same-sex relationships and children raised in intact, biological, married families when it comes to the social, emotional, and relational outcomes of their children...to be raised in an intact biological family presents clear advantages for children over other forms of parenting. In particular, the NFSS provides evidence that previous generations of social scientists were unable to gather: that children from intact, biological families also out-perform peers who were raised in homes of a parent who had same-sex relationships. Therefore, these two new studies reaffirm—and strengthen—the conviction that the gold standard for raising children is still the intact, biological family."
But of course, I could be doing exactly what I accused the AAP of doing: choosing a study purely because it validates my belief. Well, don't take my word that this study (actually two studies) is legit. Take Robert Oscar Lopez's. Mr. Lopez was raised by a lesbian couple, so he has firsthand knowledge of what it's like to be raised in a homosexual household.
Mr. Lopez described his childhood like this:
"To most outside observers, I was a well-raised, high-achieving child, finishing high school with straight A's.
Inside, however, I was confused. When your home life is so drastically different from everyone around you, in a fundamental way striking at basic physical relations, you grow up weird. I have no mental health disorders or biological conditions. I just grew up in a house so unusual that I was destined to exist as a social outcast.
My peers learned all the unwritten rules of decorum and body language in their homes; they understood what was appropriate to say in certain settings and what wasn’t; they learned both traditionally masculine and traditionally feminine social mechanisms.
Even if my peers’ parents were divorced, and many of them were, they still grew up seeing male and female social models. They learned, typically, how to be bold and unflinching from male figures and how to write thank-you cards and be sensitive from female figures. These are stereotypes, of course, but stereotypes come in handy when you inevitably leave the safety of your lesbian mom’s trailer and have to work and survive in a world where everybody thinks in stereotypical terms, even gays."
Mr. Lopez goes on to explain how he (along with the majority of children raised by homosexual couples) considered himself to be bisexual...yet in the gay community bisexuals are met with "a mixture of disgust and envy" and are even seen by some as a threat to the "gay narrative" since they can choose to be gay or straight. And so the children of gay couples grow up alienated and shunned from both the straight and gay communities...in essence making them total outcasts.
Mr. Lopez says that after his mother died he dropped out of college (where the LGBT community told him that he was lying by saying he was bisexual instead of gay) and became involved in the underground gay scene where he says "terrible things" happened to him.
Mr. Lopez's view of the aforementioned studies, which surely holds more weight than my own, is summed up like this: "Offered a chance to provide frank responses with the hindsight of adulthood, they [children raised by homosexual couples] gave reports unfavorable to the gay marriage equality agenda. Yet the results are backed up by an important thing in life called common sense: Growing up different from other people is difficult and the difficulties raise the risk that children will develop maladjustments or self-medicate with alcohol and other dangerous behaviors."
Mr. Lopez believes these studies are important for the welfare of children being raised in homosexual households, as do I. Yet he also acknowledges that the "gay movement" is doing all it can to suppress such findings. And so today we hear about the AAP and any number of other groups coming out in support of gay marriage based on their own findings, but we never hear about the studies like these that form a different conclusion.
We say we all care about the safety of our children...but when it comes to gay marriage, our society seems to choose political correctness over sincere research into how it may actually affect them in the long term. I admit that true scientific research may indeed show that being raised by a gay couple doesn't affect kids any differently...but at this point we seem very far from true and honest research. Without an open discussion with scientific findings from both sides, we never will really know if we are condemning certain children to a life of misery. And isn't determining that far more important than personal beliefs or political correctness?

Now We Know
Some have called Rand Paul's filibuster historic. Some have called it pointless. It has simultaneously been referred to as a success and as a failure. Senator Paul did indeed get Eric Holder to admit that the President believes it is unconstitutional to use drones against Americans on American soil without a trial, which is what he was asking for. But many believe that words are cheap, especially when those words come from anyone in the Obama Administration. And it may indeed be that this means nothing for the future of drone usage in America. Sen. Paul himself has said that this is just the beginning of the fight. But if the filibuster achieves nothing else, it did have one extremely important outcome. In the world of politics, it can be hard to distinguish one person from the next. Corruption is everywhere and words, as mentioned above, are cheap. It can be very hard to know which politicians mean what they say, and which care only about their own pockets. Well Rand Paul's filibuster made things a whole lot clearer on Wednesday.
As Senator Paul stood on the Senate floor for just under 13 hours, fighting to bring attention to the erosion of our rights as Americans, he was joined by fellow senators. But only a handful. 14 Republican senators stood behind, and with, Rand Paul as he tried to defend the Constitution. Only 1 Democrat senator did. 15. 15 (16 including Paul) out of 100 chose to go against their parties, president, and the status quo in order to try and make sure Americans retain their rights. That is a staggering number. Yet many of us have believed for a long while that most of our representatives in Congress are sell outs. Now we know who they are. Republican or Democrat, it does not matter. What matters is our Constitution which defends our Freedom. Either you are fighting for it, or you are fighting against it.
Those fighting for it include: Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Pat Toomey (R-Penn.), John Thune (R-S.D.), John Barrasso (R-Wy.), Tim Scott (R-S.C.), John Cornyn (R-Texas), Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.).
The Blaze also reports that Sen. Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) was in attendance and supported Paul’s filibuster by bringing the senator a thermos and an apple, a likely reference to “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.” However, Kirk, who recently returned to the Senate after suffering a stroke, did not speak during the filibuster. The Blaze article also has a full list of the other 32 Republican senators who did not choose to join the filibuster.
Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) was the only Democrat to support the filibuster, much to the chagrin of liberals who, whaddaya know, also don't want drones killing Americans without due process on U.S. soil. The ACLU and John Cusack were discouraged at the lack of Democrat support.
I think we all are a little discouraged that the men and women we elect to defend our rights are willing to so easily sell us down the proverbial river, but at least now we know who we can trust to stand up for us and who we can't. My advice: Don't ever vote for anyone not on that list again. Rand Paul's filibuster may not have achieved much, but it has exposed the dirty politicians from the (relatively) clean ones. Now we know who to trust. And as G.I. Joe taught me: knowing is half the battle.
(It should be noted that a number of representatives from the U.S. House also attended to support the filibuster, but I have yet to find a definitive list of who as of yet. If I do, I will update with it.)
UPDATE: In an op-ed Paul wrote for the Washington Post, he included the members of Congress who stood with him during his filibuster. Sixteen House Republicans showed up in the Senate to show solidarity. They are: Louis Gohmert (TX), Thomas Massie (KY), Justin Amash (MI), Ron DeSantis (FL), Doug LaMalfa (CA), Garland Barr (KY), Trey Radel (FL), Michael Burgess (TX), Jim Bridenstine (OK), Raul Labrador (ID), Keither Rothfus (PA), Paul Gosar (AZ), Steve Daines (MONTANA), Bill Huizenga (MI), Richard Hudson (NC), and David Schweikert (AZ). It should also be noted that Senator Angus King, an Independent from Maine, also stood on the floor in support of Paul.

Rand Paul - The Last American?
"Are we so complacent with our rights that we would allow a president to say he might kill Americans?"
That is the crux of what was an almost 13 hour filibuster by Kentucky Senator Rand Paul that began just before noon yesterday and ended well after midnight tonight. A rare "talking filibuster" by Paul held up the confirmation hearing of CIA head nominee John Brennan, but the filibuster had little to do with Brennan himself and everything to do with the frightening drone policy that is being implemented by the Obama Administration. Rand Paul asked a simple question that deserves a simple answer. Does the Executive Branch of our government have the right to kill Americans on American soil with drones, and if so, by what guidelines? Senator Paul was driven to hold up Senate proceedings until he was given an adequate answer to that simple question...and he may have done so well into tomorrow if not for the need of a bathroom break. (For the life of me I don't know how he made it nearly 13 hours without one!) His numerous requests for an answer to that simple question were all ignored or skirted by the President, Attorney General Eric Holder, and John Brennan. And so Paul held up the Senate to make it known that this is an important issue, maybe the most important of our time. Because if the Executive Branch can ignore the 5th Amendment, then it can ignore them all and we are two steps away from outright dictatorship.
Because of the length of the filibuster, the issue was brought to light. Infamously liberal groups like the ACLU and the Huffington Post agreed with Rand Paul. Yet, I fear that the answer to the question above is a deafening 'yes.' The majority of Americans are too complacent with our rights. As Greg Gutfeld said, President Obama has been gifted with the most distracted society since Ancient Rome (and we all know how that turned out). Instead of Bread and Circuses we have Beyonce and Siri. I believe history does repeat itself. And I'm also starting to believe Mark Twain was right in saying that nothing can be done to stop that; that man's nature only leads to the repeating of history's mistakes. Looking at today's America, how can one come to any other conclusion? Rand Paul may very well be the last American standing.

Martial Law in the U.S.? All signs point to yes.
I haven't really written much here lately, because I haven't found much worth writing about. The news stays relatively the same: the United States is slipping into a Communistic third world dystopia. The Democrats are working hard to strip Americans of freedoms. The Republicans are feigning dismay while quietly pushing for the same. Only a handful of Congressmen and Women are actively trying to slow the decay.
But it's a pointless fight.
This country was predicated on the will of the people. It still is to a degree. But the majority of U.S. citizens are either too concerned with what celebrity wore what to what award show or too uninformed about what's going on within our government to understand just where we seem to be headed. For the small amount of citizens who are aware and concerned, there's not really anything new to them and not really anything that can be done to change it. So, I for one, have been concentrating on more personal matters. I believe a lot of us are these days. We're keeping our family and friends close and our supplies closer. It's funny how those who are actively preparing for any number of disasters are looked upon as fools...yet if/when it hits the fan, who's going to be the fool then?
As to where exactly we are headed, well I can only point to the signs. The signs like the Indefinite Detention clause in the NDAA (which Obama has given his word that he will never use...forgive me if I'm unswayed), that gives the government the legal right to arrest and hold any American citizen for an indefinite amount of time with no trial. That means they don't ever need proof to lock up citizens for life.
Then there's the Drone Strike controversy in which the White House has said that they have the legal right to kill American citizens with drones...again, without any proof needed. And more disturbing is that John Brennan, the man Obama wants to be the next head of the CIA, has refused to answer whether they could use drones on Americans on American soil.
And I'm sure by now most have heard about the Department of Homeland Security's purchase of 2 billion rounds of ammunition...a majority of that hollow point bullets that are NOT used for simple target practice because of their price. However, a new story is the $2 million worth of "No Hesitation" targets that the DHS has purchased for its target practice. Those include an old man, a pregnant woman, and a child. Now why on the good green earth would the government need targets of pregnant women and children!?? They've said it's because they need to prepare their new recruits for their new job. So apparently their new job will be shooting at American citizens, including women, children, and the elderly.
A year ago if you would have told me that the United States government was preparing for Martial Law, I would have laughed in your face. Now, all a thinking man can surmise is that that is exactly what they are preparing for. Why, when, or how is anybody's guess. But as of right now, all signs point directly to Martial Law. Only a fool would be unprepared.

What the heck does THAT mean!? Obama's 23 Executive Orders on Gun Control raise some questions
Yesterday President Obama declared his 23 Executive Actions on Gun Control. Executive Orders are originally intended to be used to clarify and direct laws passed by Congress, not to bypass Congress by making laws (which is highly unconstitutional....and yet is sometimes done by the president) so these are not laws, just orders from the President to help make laws more effective.
However, I'm not gonna talk about each order and what it does or does not actually say...because frankly I don't speak in political-ese. Most seem transparent enough. Yet there are a few that cause giant question marks. The 23 Orders are as follow.
1. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant data available to the federal background check system.
2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.
3. Improve incentives for states to share information with the background check system.
4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.
5. Propose rule making to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun.
6. Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers.
7. Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.
8. Review safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety Commission).
9. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns recovered in criminal investigations.
10. Release a DOJ report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and make it widely available to law enforcement.
11. Nominate an ATF director.
12. Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper training for active shooter situations.
13. Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime.
14. Issue a Presidential Memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control to research the causes and prevention of gun violence.
15. Direct the Attorney General to issue a report on the availability and most effective use of new gun safety technologies and challenge the private sector to develop innovative technologies.
16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.
17. Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities.
18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.
19. Develop model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship and institutions of higher education.
20. Release a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental health services that Medicaid plans must cover.
21. Finalize regulations clarifying essential health benefits and parity requirements within ACA exchanges.
22. Commit to finalizing mental health parity regulations.
23. Launch a national dialogue led by Secretaries Sebelius and Duncan on mental health
Again, most seem transparent and appropriate. Then there's numbers 14 and 16. Now what I'm about to say borders on the paranoid and I'm not entirely sure I'm not just being paranoid. (Isn't it interesting how Obama is doing things so crazy that talking about them makes you feel crazy?? I have a friend who posted a lot of Obama information on his Facebook page before the election, and he told me that he was called a conspiracy nut by at least 3 people...even though what he said was well documented as true if you did a little research. So at least I know I'm not the only one.)
Number 14 directs the Centers for Disease Control...yes, the CDC...to research causes and prevention of gun violence. Now why on the good planet Earth would that job be given to the CDC??? The CDC, in case you happen to be Patrick Star, is the federal agency designed to protect and promote public health and saftey in the United States. Mostly they focus on infectious diseases. Now I suppose you could say that being shot is unhealthy and therefore the CDC could be in charge of trying to keep people from getting shot...however that seems like a stretch. Now this may just be paranoia because I'm in the middle of a Fringe marathon, but somehow it just doesn't make sense that this research should be the CDC's jurisdiction. So why have them do it? I think we may have gotten our answer to that today. Today Obama asked Congress for $10 million dollars to be allocated to the CDC for this "research." That's a lot of research. Now I don't know how much it takes to figure out if people seeing violent images repeatedly has anything to do with violence...but I'm pretty sure $10 mil is overkill. (This is why our country is broke, btw.) So why the hell does Obama want the CDC to have this money then?? Now I have no idea what secret projects the government works on. I'm not naive enough to believe that governments don't work on secret initiatives that may be, well, nefarious may be the right word. I'm also not educated enough to know just what those projects are, so I won't posit something just for the heck of it. It just reminds me of the part in 'Independence Day' where the old guy responds to the question of how does the government pay for something like an Area 51 by saying "you don't really think it costs $1,000 for a hammer, $10,000 for a toilet seat, do you?". Makes you wonder what the CDC is really up to, doesn't it? Wonder if it has anything to do with those FEMA camps I keep hearing about.
The other order that stood out as unusual is the 16th. Now just what the hell does that mean!? I understand that it, along with the 17th have to do with questioning and reporting people who may have violent tendencies and who owns guns, clarifying that doctor-patient confidentiality doesn't prohibit doctors from asking (or telling) about gun ownership. But....why the hell is it there in the first place?? I mean, why does a doctor need to know if their patient owns a gun? I understand that they could then report someone that they feel is unstable...but what I don't get is how a doctor is going to find out if a person owns a gun or not. Because here in America we like a little phrase "none of your damn business" and I don't see that changing anytime soon. Unless.....what if in the future, when Obamacare is the rule of the land and doctors are basically employees of the government, that doctors must ask that question. And what if, just what if, a patient who refuses to answer is withheld treatment until they disclose whether they own a gun or not?? Now maybe this is just my wild imagination running course, but I really see no other reason for that order. Doctors have no business asking personal questions that do not pertain to medical issues...and unless I'm eating the lead bullets daily which is giving me lead poisoning...doctors have no business asking me about what I own. That seems so basic and simple that it causes Order 16 to stand out like a 30 year old at a Justin Beiber concert. Like I said, most of these are transparent enough to not raise any eyebrows, but then those two seem to make such little sense that it makes me, at least, wonder.
However, I'm not gonna talk about each order and what it does or does not actually say...because frankly I don't speak in political-ese. Most seem transparent enough. Yet there are a few that cause giant question marks. The 23 Orders are as follow.
1. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant data available to the federal background check system.
2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.
3. Improve incentives for states to share information with the background check system.
4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.
5. Propose rule making to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun.
6. Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers.
7. Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.
8. Review safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety Commission).
9. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns recovered in criminal investigations.
10. Release a DOJ report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and make it widely available to law enforcement.
11. Nominate an ATF director.
12. Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper training for active shooter situations.
13. Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime.
14. Issue a Presidential Memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control to research the causes and prevention of gun violence.
15. Direct the Attorney General to issue a report on the availability and most effective use of new gun safety technologies and challenge the private sector to develop innovative technologies.
16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.
17. Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities.
18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.
19. Develop model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship and institutions of higher education.
20. Release a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental health services that Medicaid plans must cover.
21. Finalize regulations clarifying essential health benefits and parity requirements within ACA exchanges.
22. Commit to finalizing mental health parity regulations.
23. Launch a national dialogue led by Secretaries Sebelius and Duncan on mental health
Again, most seem transparent and appropriate. Then there's numbers 14 and 16. Now what I'm about to say borders on the paranoid and I'm not entirely sure I'm not just being paranoid. (Isn't it interesting how Obama is doing things so crazy that talking about them makes you feel crazy?? I have a friend who posted a lot of Obama information on his Facebook page before the election, and he told me that he was called a conspiracy nut by at least 3 people...even though what he said was well documented as true if you did a little research. So at least I know I'm not the only one.)
Number 14 directs the Centers for Disease Control...yes, the CDC...to research causes and prevention of gun violence. Now why on the good planet Earth would that job be given to the CDC??? The CDC, in case you happen to be Patrick Star, is the federal agency designed to protect and promote public health and saftey in the United States. Mostly they focus on infectious diseases. Now I suppose you could say that being shot is unhealthy and therefore the CDC could be in charge of trying to keep people from getting shot...however that seems like a stretch. Now this may just be paranoia because I'm in the middle of a Fringe marathon, but somehow it just doesn't make sense that this research should be the CDC's jurisdiction. So why have them do it? I think we may have gotten our answer to that today. Today Obama asked Congress for $10 million dollars to be allocated to the CDC for this "research." That's a lot of research. Now I don't know how much it takes to figure out if people seeing violent images repeatedly has anything to do with violence...but I'm pretty sure $10 mil is overkill. (This is why our country is broke, btw.) So why the hell does Obama want the CDC to have this money then?? Now I have no idea what secret projects the government works on. I'm not naive enough to believe that governments don't work on secret initiatives that may be, well, nefarious may be the right word. I'm also not educated enough to know just what those projects are, so I won't posit something just for the heck of it.

Obama needs the New Cheka to push his Gun Control plan
The news of the day is Obama's speech on his plans for gun control. I confess I didn't watch or listen to this speech (I can't stand the halting manner in which he speaks; it really annoys me) but I have been reading snippets here and there.
One particular passage stuck out to me. In his speech, Obama entreated the people to be involved in his plan:
“This will not happen unless the American people demand it. If parents and teachers, police officers and pastors, if hunters and sportsmen, if responsible gun owners, if Americans of every background stand up and say, ‘Enough, we’ve suffered too much pain and care too much about our children to allow this to continue,' then change will come," he said. "That’s what it’s going to take."
And, in fact, that is what it's going to take. A few months ago, I wrote about the New Cheka in America, and how their goals are the same as the original Russian Cheka: to silence all opposition.
In America, our Constitution, particularly the 2nd Amendment in this case, is a hindrance to setting up a tyrannical governmental system. The Founders intended it to be that way. A president, or a Congress or judge or any other person in position of leadership in America, cannot simply do away with the Constitution. If Obama wanted to simply ban all guns, like other leaders have (in attempts that failed to prevent crime btw), he couldn't just go ahead and do it. If all members of Congress wanted to ban all guns as well, they still couldn't do it. In order to physically change the constitution, it requires more. It requires the people's consent. Which is why Obama is calling for it. And is why the New Cheka will seek to demonize any who oppose it.
Make no mistake, the New Cheka still works for the government. They just do so in an unofficial capacity. They will seek to influence the very thoughts of every American. It's not as hard to do that these days. Celebrities have become the mouthpiece of the New Cheka, and thus, the government. And seemingly everyone who gets a camera in front of them becomes a celebrity these days. They will bombard us with calls for gun control. You've seen that they already have. It's even affected my father, one of the most conservative people I know. He agreed with an assault gun ban, saying people don't need those for protection when a handgun will do. Once I explained that the 2nd Amendment is not about self protection (or hunting) but it's about being able to fight against what may become a tyrannical government, he changed his mind. But that's how easily the Cheka can influence the people.
For all those who will say that this isn't an attack on the 2nd Amendment or that we don't need certain guns, you suffer from a case of myopia. If we agree to give up assault weapons today, will we agree to give up handguns tomorrow? When we agree to give up handguns, what if a future president decides he wants to be a dictator and force all of our children to work in labor camps? Will we deprive them of a means to prevent that future today, or will we work towards it by agreeing to strict gun control? Will we exchange our children's future safety for our own today?
Obama says this isn't about doing away with the 2nd Amendment. But it is about chipping away at it. And chipping away at something over time ends up being the same as doing away with it. The New Cheka will seek to influence the people to see things Obama's way. In America, the people must give up their rights. Will we?

Rumblings of Dictatorship
Hey all. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and holiday break! I got a sinus infection for Christmas, so have been a little out of it the past couple of weeks. There seems to be so much going on it's hard to keep track of it all. One thing that remains certain is Obama's paving the way for a future American dictator. A lot of people seem to think Obama wants to be dictator himself. I disagree with that, but I definitely think he's setting the stage for a future dictator to emerge.
Stolen with honor from Monkey in the Middle.
.........................................................................................................................
Wild Bill for America sounds the warning! Red flags every where. There are some disturbing trends coming from the White House. Americans beware. With a Cowardly Congress, a complacent Supreme Court, Obama is gathering the power of a dictator.

"How did it come to this?"
The level of ignorance in America today astounds me. It seems the majority of people don't know a thing about history, don't know what Socialism is, and have no idea what tyranny looks like in its infancy. Sure, there is a portion of the people who know all these things exactly, but it seems that their message is only heard by those who already believe it and ignored by the masses. It frustrates me greatly to see parallels between history and America today; parallels of tyranny, absolutism, nationalism, socialism. Parallels to horrors, death, and slavery.
Yet most ignore it, choose not to believe it, or honestly think it can't happen here or to them. And if the majority, or even half, of the population refuses to face reality, then what can the informed do? What can those who believe America is headed into times possibly darker than any in history do about it? It seems trying to spread knowledge is the only recourse. But the majority won't listen. And it's damn frustrating.
But honestly, it isn't any different from most of human history. In the 1700's, half of the population of the American colonies refused to believe Britain needed to be rebelled against...until British warships brought troops to America.
In the 1930's, people in Germany welcomed the rise of the Nazis. In Austria, 98% of the population voted to become a part of Nazi Germany thinking it would be better for them. Five years later people were being rounded up and sent to Concentration Camps. In the meantime, the people gladly gave up their guns in order to comply with their new government's wishes. When Jews were forbidden to own guns, they gave them up. 11 million people were killed in Death Camps.
In the 1920's in Turkey, Armenians gave up their guns to the new Muslim government. Millions of them, 3/4 of the Armenian population, were then slaughtered.
In the 1930's in Russia, the Soviet government forced the population to register all their firearms, then used the lists to confiscate them all. Millions were killed or starved to death.
All throughout history, the natural inclination of humanity has been to obey their governments' every decree. In an attempt to remain peaceful, humans do what they are told...and then when they end up victims to violent or tyrannical leadership they ask, "How did this happen?"
History repeats itself, and those who don't know it are doomed to repeat it. I personally believe America is on an unchangeable path towards some bad times. Yet no one seems to care. If things come to pass like I think they will, these same people will one day cry out, "How did it come to this?"
It seems to be human nature to choose ignorance over liberty. Can we expect America to possibly turn out any differently?

DC Archdiocese priest-blogger: America is one step away from outright persecution
This is a great article from LifeSiteNews.com about a great blog post by Monseigneur Charles Pope. (With that name I guess he was destined to be a priest.)
.........................................................................................................................
WASHINGTON, D.C., Nov. 29, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) – An influential priest in the Archdiocese of Washington has warned that Christians are “pretty well set” for outright persecution in the wake of affronts to religious freedom like Obama’s HHS mandate and the forced closure of Catholic adoption agencies.
Msgr. Charles Pope, the pastor of Holy Comforter - St Cyprian Parish who runs a blog on the Archdiocese’s website, warned last month that Americans are much closer to persecution than many may realize.
“If current trends continue, Christians, especially religious leaders, may not be far from enduring heavy fines and jail,” he wrote.
Pope Benedict XVI’s nuncio to America had made similar warnings earlier in the month. In a Nov. 4th talk at the University of Notre Dame, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò said the persecution of Christians is a reality even in America, though it can present itself in forms that are not immediately obvious. The nuncio charged, in particular, that dissident Catholic professors and public officials represent a “grave” threat to religious liberty.
Msgr. Pope, in his blog post, offered an overview of the five stages of persecution recognized by social scientists. He says it is important for Christians to become familiar with them because “it would seem that things are going to get more difficult for the Church in the years ahead.”
The five stages, as he lists them, are: (1) Stereotyping the targeted group; (2) Vilifying the targeted group for alleged crimes or misconduct; (3) Marginalizing the targeted group’s role in society; (4) Criminalizing the targeted group or its works; (5) Persecuting the targeted group outright.
According to Msgr. Pope, the stereotyping stage began in the 1960s and 70s when Christians were “caricatured in the media as Bible thumpers, simpletons, as backwards, mentally simple, haters of science, hypocrites, self-righteous, old-fashioned and so forth.”
But, in his view, the culture has now reached stage 4 with the state beginning to “criminalize” Christian beliefs. “Stages one through four are pretty well in place. One may wish to whistle past the graveyard but it looks like we’re pretty well set for Stage V,” he writes.
The priest highlights President Obama’s HHS mandate, which forces employers to cover abortion-inducing drugs, sterilizations, and contraception in their health insurance plans.
“But prior to this egregious attempt to violate our religious liberty there have been many other times we have had to go to court to fight for our rights to openly practice our faith,” he says. “Some jurisdictions have sought to compel Catholic hospitals and pro-life clinics to provide information or referrals for abortion, to provide ‘emergency contraception’.”
“Several branches of Catholic Charities have been de-certified from doing adoption work because they will not adopt children to gay couples,” he adds, among other examples. “Many of these attempts to criminalize the faith have been successfully rebuffed in the courts, but the frequency of lawsuits, and the time and cost involved with fighting them is a huge burden.”
“It is clear that attempts to criminalize Christian behavior is a growth sector in this culture and signals the beginnings and steady erosion of religious liberty,” he says.

The Fiscal Cliff - Get Your Parachutes Ready
The Fiscal Cliff is all that is being talked about. The cliff is coming up...can we avoid it...will our leaders agree to avert disaster....who's to blame??
Let me make it clear. We WILL go over the so-called Fiscal Cliff. It's all part of our dear leader's plan. I've said this before but since it's such a hot topic it bears repeating. Barack Obama is a Marxist. He believes in Socialism and will do what he can to guide America into a Socialist nation. In Marxist philosophy, the Middle Class is evil. Well all classes are evil, but you need to destroy Capitalism like a pyramid. You take out one level at a time.
The next level is the Middle Class. Is there any wonder why then that policies such as Obamacare hurt the Middle Class? That is what Obama wants.
Now he came up with this Fiscal Cliff plan. Originally intended to be so destructive that it would force the two sides to compromise, Barack Obama has made compromise all but impossible. The news today is that his plan is laughable in it's ridiculousness. It's meant to be. Obama doesn't want a compromise. He wants to drive us all over the cliff in order to drive us closer to Socialism.
He has made his deal so one-sided that Republicans will never agree to it. Charles Krauthammer said Robert E. Lee was offered better terms at Appomattox. (If you don't know what that is, go to the penelty box and feel shame. And read a history book while in there.) If, by some combination of guilt and fear for their political future the Republicans agree to his terms, they will be agreeing to a plan designed to only increase Socialism even more. Either way, the road we're on leads to Socialism at the direction of Barack Hussein Obama.
And it's really a win-win for B.O. He gets to push America off the cliff, smashing the Middle Class, and he gets to blame it on his opposition. Once America starts to feel the pain, they will look for someone to blame. And B.O. can say with a smile, "Hey, I had a plan that would save you. It was the evil Republicans who don't care about you. I wanted to save you. They only cared about the rich." And America will explode in anti-Republican sentiment that will only hasten the Democrat-Socialist takeover.
And once the Middle Class has been destroyed, pushed back down into the Lower Class (that's Socialism's goal-one class; and history shows that class is poor), the Democrat-Socialist règime will set it's sights on the next level of the Capitalist Pyramid, determined to destroy all classes in America. That won't happen for a few years though. For the next few years, they will focus on crushing the Middle Class in which most of American's reside. We will go over the Fiscal Cliff. Get your parachutes ready.
The Alliance Starbird - A Symbol for America's Future
I decided the other day that I should add a profile picture here. Due to the nature of the blog, I wanted something symbolic, rather than a picture of myself or something random that I liked. There were so many options, it was hard to choose just the right one. But a few days ago, I found it. The Alliance Starbird.
Most will probably recognize it as the insignia of the Rebel Alliance from Star Wars. And many will probably think that it's just a symbol from a movie. While I have no problem with people realizing that I'm a Star Wars fan, I want people to know the deeper meaning of that symbol, and why I think it's perfect for this blog and the future of America.
For one, the full name of the rebel alliance was the Alliance to Restore the Republic. You see, the story of Star Wars is the story of the Fall of the Republic. In it, a duplicitous and corrupt senator manipulates his way into becoming the Supreme Chancellor...our equivalent to the president. He then proceeds to amass more power in himself over the course of the next few years, wresting it away from the Senate. Sound familiar? In America today, Barack Obama (another duplicitous and corrupt senator) has manipulated his way into becoming president. Over the past few years he has ceded more power in the presidency than at any time in American history, bypassing Congress any way he can.
In Star Wars, the Chancellor (Palpatine) is an extremely popular figure, throughout the Senate as well as the populace. His attempts at gaining more power are all done in the name of the security and well being of the people, and only a small group fear that it will be bad for the Republic, and freedom. Most cheer him on as a hero as he continues to amass more power in an attempt to more smoothly run the government. Again, sound familiar? No politician has been as revered in America as has Barack Obama. He is even considered to be a savior to some, a man extremely popular in both the Congress and the country. All the while he continues to gain more and more power, and it seems only a few are worried about the consequences of having such power in one branch of the government.
In Star Wars, the Chancellor Palpatine feigns an assassination attempt in an effort to destroy his enemies and those standing in his way to absolute power (namely the Jedi). He declares himself Emperor, and plunges the galaxy into darkness. For the next 20 years, he rules with an Iron Fist. He arrests, tortures, and kills any detractors. He uses fear and coercion to keep the people in line. Originally keeping the Senate in a purely symbolic fashion, he eventually abolishes it and gives direct control to his hand picked "czars." His reign is called the dark times. Now I don't believe that Obama will declare himself Emperor, but he is definitely paving the way for someone to do so in the future. His policies, endless Executive Orders, and the way he is revered without question or thought are all paths towards tyranny. Anyone with a mediocre knowledge of history can tell you that. The eminent collapse of the American Republic can only lead into dark times for our country. The government will only continue to become more intrusive and controlling until America becomes a totalitarian state where freedom is limited and liberty is rare. Socialism knows no other way.
In the world of Star Wars, a group of freedom fighters emerged out of the despotic reign of the new Emperor. They became the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Their goal was to overthrow the Emperor and set up a new republic that would once again restore freedom to the galaxy. As their symbol, they chose the Starbird. It represented a phoenix, the mythical creature who would rise from the ashes. The Starbird symbolized freedom and justice. But most importantly, it symbolized hope. The hope that they would be victorious in their battle against the Evil Emperor and that a new Republic would rise out of the ashes of the defeated Empire. In America today, we are witnessing the last days of the Republic. Much like in Star Wars, an evil and corrupt faction has gained control of the government, and it isn't too far fetched to believe the outcome will be the same as in Star Wars. Our Democratic Republic is quickly becoming a Socialist Republic, and Socialism, as history bears out, only leads to totalitarianism. It stamps out individual freedoms and seeks to eliminate any rights except those it grants.
I do believe America is headed into the dark times. A time when freedom as we know it will be eliminated. Our corrupt government will eventually crack down on the people in a physical and violent way, as all totalitarian systems do. During these times, we need people who will fight to restore not just the Republic, but the ideas that the Republic stood for. We will need hope that freedom can be restored. I'm hoping it can be done so without a physical rebellion, but only time will tell. Perhaps I'm just a Star Wars nerd, but to me the Alliance Starbird is the perfect representation of what the American future will need. I will fight to restore the Republic. It might seem cheesy, but that is why I think the Starbird is perfect for this blog and for the future of America.

Crying Racism
When I was a kid, racism was a word that was rarely thrown around lightly. It had a serious meaning and was considered a serious topic. The election of the first black president was supposed to be another sign that racism was a thing of the past. Unfortunately, the first black president is a Marxist who's goal is to destroy the middle class. Race warfare is just another side of class warfare. The goal is to divide and conquer, and the Communists in D.C. are using any means necessary to do just that.
And so, racism has suddenly become the hot word. In 3 days, I've seen the words urban, Chicago, and incompetent now all mean racism, apparently. Susan Rice is only being questioned because she's black. And if you like the white meat of the turkey, you're a racist. It's as if all of the jokes made about racism have now become serious. Like when I'd be at Subway and ordered my sub on white bread and my black friend would say, "You racist!" and then we'd laugh about it. Now, people would actually consider me a racist for ordering white bread! I mean, seriously!?
Personally, I think that racism is one of the stupidest things on Earth. Judging a person based purely on a physical characteristic that they have no control over is absolutely moronic. Like the Irish guy in Gettysburg says, "Anyone who judges a people as a whole is a peewit. Men are each unique and you have to take 'em all one at a time." I couldn't have said it better!
However, now the people that are yelling "racist!" at every turn are doing the exact same thing. I just saw that Ken Burns recently said that the Tea Party and secessionists are racists. Has he sat down with every Tea Party member and secessionist? If not, than he is doing exactly what racists do. Judging a person you don't know based on one thing...hmm, that sounds like RACISM doesn't it?? And every TV personality, pundit, actor, or anyone else who is declaring this or that as a sign of racism is acting just as ignorantly as actual racists. And they are spreading just as much ignorance as actual racists do.
Now don't get me wrong, racism is a real thing. Minorities, especially blacks, have been discriminated against in the past and it's important to remember that in order to make sure that it never happens again. I have no problem with someone bringing up the idea that racism may have a part in something, so that it can be determined whether or not it actually does. But what I do have a problem with is the declaration that someone is a racist based simply on one thing or another. At this point, I don't even take the word seriously anymore. There was a time when, if called a racist, I would vehemently disagree and then state my facts. Now, I just accept it....much like I would accept someone calling me a hater of pickles. I enjoy pickles, but it's not such an important issue as to argue about. I'll just keep eating my pickles whilst you go on about how I hate pickles. The cry of racism has suddenly entered the same realm of importance as eating pickles. (Which is a sad state of society indeed!) So you go ahead and call me racist because I don't like Barack Obama's Marxist policies, support the Tea Party and idea of succession, and eat white meat at Thanksgiving...and I'll just keep on hanging out with my friends of a "minority race." Who, by the way, I judge by the content of their character and not the color of their skin...just like I do everyone.
Crying racism for everything is only going to end up like the boy who cried wolf...someday an actual racist is going to discriminate against a "minority" and no one is going to pay attention because the cry of racism is already getting old. So in essence, all these people crying racism for everything are doing is helping out the actual racists. Remember that for the next time someone calls you a racist for a completely inane reason, and enlighten them on how they are acting like, and helping, racists!

The 45 Communist Goals for America
While listening to his radio thing on Holger Awakens the other day, I first heard about the 45 Communist Goals for America. Having never heard about them before, I've been perusing them the past few days...and wow... I know the U.S. has slowly turned into a Socialist nation, codified by the election of Barack Hussein Obama, but I had no idea how the Communists have infiltrated and instituted their own goals here in America for the past 50-some years. This list was first discovered in the book 'The Naked Communist,' by researcher Cleon Skousen, all the way back in 1963! Since then, the Communists have done a bang up job of taking down the American Republic from within. I've added emphasis to highlight some of their biggest victories as well as some of my own comments in parentheses. Some of these are outdated, of course, but the majority still apply.
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war. (Check.)
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war. (Check.)
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength. (Check.)
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N. (Check.)
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow.) (Big time check.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party. (Check. The Communist Party of America is alive and well. They even endorsed Barack Obama for president.)
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States. (Big time check. The Democrat Party is pretty much the new Communist Party. The Republicans are well on their way.)
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights. (Check. Can you say ACLU??)
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks. (Check, check, and check. The public school systems in America, especially colleges/universities, are breeding grounds for Communist ideologies.)
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions. (Check!)
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures. (Huge check!)
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms." (Check!)
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art." (Huge check. I always wondered how a pile of dog crap can be labeled "art." Now I know. Damn Communists.)
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press. (Check. Although it's quickly being replaced by blasphemy laws censuring any "obscenity" towards Islam.)
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV. (Check!)
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy." (Wow. Check, check, and check.)
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch." (Check!)
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state." (Big time check!)
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis. (Huge check. Or you could just call it "fluid" like Barack Obama.)
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man." (Check! Once considered American heroes, the Founding Fathers are now being discredited at every turn.)
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over. (Check.)
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc. (Big check.)
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities. (Check.)
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions. (Check.)
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business. (Check.)
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat]. (Check! ADD, ADHD, etc., have suddenly overrun our society.)
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals. (Not sure how this is going...it's at least a partial check.)
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce. (CHECK!)
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents. (Check!)
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal. (Check.)
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.
It's amazing how the American people have been kept in the dark about these goals, whether an intentional or self-imposed dark. But it sure looks like America has ignored the dangers of Communism while the wolf was making it's way into the sheep pen. Now it's too late, and the American Republic is all but dead, replaced by the very Communism that we've fought so hard against for over 40 years.
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war. (Check.)
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war. (Check.)

The new Cheka hard at work discrediting McCain
Earlier I wrote about the new Cheka and how their goal is the same as the original Cheka in Soviet Russia: silence the opposition. As I wrote, the new Cheka isn't a secret police force; instead it is the people themselves who have been indoctrinated with leftist/Marxist drivel since 6th grade. Well no group in America embodies the new Cheka quite as well as the media...who, over generations, have been bred to repeat leftist ideas instead of critically thinking up any of their own.
Today, the media Cheka are hard at work trying to silence anyone pointing a finger at President Obama or his woefully inept administration concerning the Benghazi massacre. The new object of their ire: Senator John McCain. McCain, already hated by the left for being a war hero (to them there is no such thing as a war hero; anyone involved in war is inherently evil), is now being viciously and repeatedly attacked by the talking heads in the media for questioning Susan Rice's involvement in the incident, her response to it (which turned out to be straight lies), and her part played in trying to obfuscate the facts. Rice, who may be in line to become the new Secretary of State once Hillary retires to focus on her presidential campaign, was the one who took her message of deceit to five morning talk shows 5 days after the Benghazi massacre. You'll remember, she said it was all caused by a protest gone wrong and that there was no proof that it was a premeditated attack.
Well now, Senator McCain, along with Sens. Lindsey Graham and Kelly Ayotte, has said that he will filibuster Rice's nomination as Secretary of State until the Benghazi incident has been fully investigated in public hearings. McCain is calling for Watergate-style hearings into the White House's handling of the incident, including the decrease in security leading up to the attack and the lie about it all being a protest that was spread for two weeks after the attack (before they all agreed that it was indeed terrorism, and that is what they had said all along!).
This incursion into the Marxist regime plan has not been taken lightly by the new Cheka, and the media has responded in scathing, and somewhat predictable, fashion. They are now painting McCain as an Ahab-type figure, who, consumed with his loss to Obama in the 2008 election, is now taking any chance to try and "get back" at Obama. They are saying that his criticism of Susan Rice, as well as the whole Benghazi incident, is simply because he is a sore loser that just won't accept that he lost. Now I am not a huge fan of McCain, but this attack, being repeated at all levels of the media, is completely disingenuous and disgusting. (Not that I should expect different from the "state media.") First off, the Benghazi massacre is not just some "bump in the road," as Obama put it. It's a major, historical event. The death of an ambassador is nothing to sneeze at, and the idea that the death of 4 Americans is not really important is of such anathema to me that I feel that anyone making that case needs a good punch in the nose! I know in America today we are more concerned with who got voted off of Dancing with the Stars than anything that is happening in other parts of the world...and also that life is cheaper than once believed...and that if it doesn't affect me I shouldn't care. I do believe that is what is wrong with America today. A lot of people need punching in the nose!
But to attack John McCain as a sore loser 4 freaking years after he lost seems like a bit of a desperate measure! However, I do know that the American public will eat it up, as anything said on TV is taken as truth by most people who can't be bothered to come up with their own thoughts. This is why the new Cheka is winning in reshaping America into a socialist paradise, and why more and more Americans are becoming a part of the new Cheka. And as mentioned in my last post, this attack on a Republican is all part of the plan. The media are complicit in this plan, and this story is just one example of it. McCain, as well as other Republicans who continue to make trouble for the new Socialist Regime in Washington, will be phased out of the American consciousness over the next 4 years by a lying and traitorous media complex.

Obama's 2nd term goals: Crush the Middle Class, Republicans
Apparently President Obama gave a press conference today. I don't know, I didn't watch it and I won't watch another television appearance of his again since I already know his plans and that he's just lying most of the time anyway. But in reading about the conference, I see that my predictions regarding his 2nd term plan is starting to take shape. I went over it a little in my last few posts, but I didn't clearly explain it. So I'll do it here.
In this term you will see Obama do two things for sure. One, he will continue to wage war on the bourgeoisie. That is the majority of business owners and middle class. In Marxist terms, the bourgeoisie are the middle class business owners...the petit bourgeoisie are the working middle class. The middle class are seen as evil in Marxism because they own the majority of the businesses and make more money than the general mass of poor workers, the proletariat. And so they need to be crushed. This will be attempted by raising taxes and increasing regulations. So while President Obama says he will help the middle class, his actual goal is to stamp them back down into the proletariat. That's why businesses are being suffocated by taxes and regulations and why unemployment will increase. By crushing the middle class, they will become a part of the proletariat and join the socialist cause, since they will have no other option for surviving. Marxism 101.
It's why, while publicly declaring that we need to tax the rich in order to save the middle class, he has doubled his tax revenue offer to the Republicans in Congress from $800 billion to 1.6 trillion...all but assuring we do indeed go over the fiscal cliff. That IS what he wants.
The second thing he will do this term is inherently connected to that last statement. He will blame the Republicans in Congress...heck, in the whole country, but in Congress particularly...for all the troubles America will soon face. Once we go over the fiscal cliff and Obamacare is fully integrated, as taxes rise on all and more and more people are unable to keep and find work, Americans will be mighty unhappy. But Obama has seen in the last election that people are stupid and willing to believe whatever they hear from the media as true, so he will use their troubles to try to get rid of his enemies across the aisle. The Republican Party is squarely is his crosshairs. Already the media are saying that the Republican Party is dying off because they are old, rich, white men who want to take away womens' right to vote and re-institute slavery. The state media (because let's not be foolish, the big networks ARE now the state run media) will follow their master's lead and continue to lay all the problems of America at the feet of Republicans. He'll say we went over the fiscal cliff because they protected the rich at the expense of the middle class. Even though, as I stated above, it's his plan all along to take America over that cliff in order to hurt the middle class, the media will regurgitate that lie to the people. He'll say that Republicans are stonewalling any efforts in Congress to provide relief for the middle class...even though he will in fact be circumventing Congress with Executive Orders. The media will repeat the lie as will the Obama zombies. As businesses are forced to close and families all across America are forced to cut back, Obama will blame it all on the Republicans. He will...the media will...and the idiots will. Instead of blaming Bush for the next four years, Obama will instead continue to blame each and every problem on the Republican Party. He will seek to make that Party so toxic that America will never trust them again...thus insuring the continued, unmitigated reign of his Socialist-Democratic Party. Today's press conference was only the beginning of this plan.
And while he may (and probably will) do much more during his 2nd term, the two goals he will definitely try to achieve will be to destroy the middle class, and destroy the Republican Party. He's doing a masterful job of it so far...aided by the subjective media, of course...and you can only expect it to continue. Watch for it. At this point, it's all but a guarantee.
In this term you will see Obama do two things for sure. One, he will continue to wage war on the bourgeoisie. That is the majority of business owners and middle class. In Marxist terms, the bourgeoisie are the middle class business owners...the petit bourgeoisie are the working middle class. The middle class are seen as evil in Marxism because they own the majority of the businesses and make more money than the general mass of poor workers, the proletariat. And so they need to be crushed. This will be attempted by raising taxes and increasing regulations. So while President Obama says he will help the middle class, his actual goal is to stamp them back down into the proletariat. That's why businesses are being suffocated by taxes and regulations and why unemployment will increase. By crushing the middle class, they will become a part of the proletariat and join the socialist cause, since they will have no other option for surviving. Marxism 101.
It's why, while publicly declaring that we need to tax the rich in order to save the middle class, he has doubled his tax revenue offer to the Republicans in Congress from $800 billion to 1.6 trillion...all but assuring we do indeed go over the fiscal cliff. That IS what he wants.
The second thing he will do this term is inherently connected to that last statement. He will blame the Republicans in Congress...heck, in the whole country, but in Congress particularly...for all the troubles America will soon face. Once we go over the fiscal cliff and Obamacare is fully integrated, as taxes rise on all and more and more people are unable to keep and find work, Americans will be mighty unhappy. But Obama has seen in the last election that people are stupid and willing to believe whatever they hear from the media as true, so he will use their troubles to try to get rid of his enemies across the aisle. The Republican Party is squarely is his crosshairs. Already the media are saying that the Republican Party is dying off because they are old, rich, white men who want to take away womens' right to vote and re-institute slavery. The state media (because let's not be foolish, the big networks ARE now the state run media) will follow their master's lead and continue to lay all the problems of America at the feet of Republicans. He'll say we went over the fiscal cliff because they protected the rich at the expense of the middle class. Even though, as I stated above, it's his plan all along to take America over that cliff in order to hurt the middle class, the media will regurgitate that lie to the people.

The Attack on the Bourgeoisie
1911 publication based on a flyer by the "Union of Russian Socialists"
In order to understand what is going on in America today, you need to understand Marxism. Our illustrious president is a bona fide Marxist, and therefore, his policies are as well. Today, there are report after report of business closings and layoffs. Millions are without work and yet, all we see indicates that more will be added to that list. Now that the [fraudulent] election is over, companies are, and will be, laying off more employees as Obamacare and tax hikes begin to go into effect. All of it spells bad news for America's economy. Most people realize this, which is why the Stock Market is tanking. Most people, however, don't realize why it's happening.
It's all part of the plan. The socialist plan, that is, laid out by Karl Marx. You see, according to the socialist, capitalism works like the pyramid above. The mass of people, otherwise known as the proletariat, are just used as the laborers. The proletariat work for the bourgeoisie, the upper-middle class who own the majority of the businesses. The bourgeoisie use the military, or police, force to keep the proletariat down. The religious also help keep the people down, as shown in the third level, because faith in God (called the opiate of the masses by Marx) encourages individualism. (If you have God on your side, you don't really need anyone else.) Finally, the rulers who reap the money from the bourgeoisie and clergy are at the top. All of these groups, according to Marx, keep the majority of people down and use their labors to get rich. Which, of course, is seen as the great injustice of capitalism. (Let's skip right past the part where, in a capitalist society, any one of the proletariat can start a business themselves with good ideas and hard work, thus joining the bourgeoisie in making more money.)
And so the goal of Socialism is to eliminate the levels of the pyramid that keep the proletariat down. To do that, the pyramid must collapse. The levels must all collapse down until there are only two left...the rulers and the proletariat. The goal is to eventually reach communism, where only one level exists and no one, not even the rulers, are better off than anyone else. (Let's also skip the fact that it has never and will never happen anywhere ever!) So in the eyes of the socialists, the upper-middle class majority of business owners are evil, and must be destroyed if the mass of people are ever to be free.
Look around America today. Who is being hurt most by all of Obama's policies? All across this country, business owners are struggling under the tax increases and regulations being imposed by the government. The super businesses will be fine, of course, but every other business owner in America is complaining about how hard the government is coming down on them. It's not by accident. It's all part of Obama's plan to crush the bourgeoisie. And not just business owners will suffer, but all Middle-Class America will, business or not. Because according to Marxism, the middle class is part of the bourgeoisie...and must be pushed back down into the proletariat for the good of the people. Is it any wonder people are saying Middle-Class America will suffer the most under Obama? After all, that is the plan of the Marxist.

Moscow Politics
The New America was shocked today by the sudden resignation of Gen. David Petraeus as head of the CIA. Gen. Petraeus claimed his resignation was due to an extra-marital affair. While anyone privy to classified intelligence is expected to be removed from power immediately upon the revelation of an affair (for security reasons anyone able to be blackmailed loses their security credentials...or is supposed to), the timing of this resignation raises serious questions. One, while as mentioned, an extra-marital affair should always lead to a resignation of security clearance, this does not always happen within the Washington D.C. sphere. Numerous politicians, pundits, staffers, and governmental workers who have certain security clearance have had affairs that didn't lead to them losing their jobs. Do we need to look any further than Bill Clinton to make that point? If the president of the United States can do it, lie about it under oath, admit it, and come away more popular than before...then how the hell can it be a serious cause for anyone else to resign over!? Again, I get the security concerns...but again, Clinton could also have been blackmailed. Once the affair is made public, the ability to blackmail goes away and the issue dies, at least it did in Clinton's case.
Also, David Petraeus was the highest ranking official to challenge the reports made by the White House over the Benghazi incident. Remember that Petraeus himself said that the CIA gave no orders for anyone to "stand down" that night 4 Americans were murdered. The implication is that either the report from people who were in Benghazi that night was a lie...or that the order to stand down came from somewhere else. The other place it could've came from was the White House itself. (Btw, can I start calling it the Black House, not because Obama is black, but because I'm convinced whoever resides there from now on will be an agent of evil, or will I only be called racist for it??) So now that Petraeus has resigned, guess who won't be testifying at the congressional hearings about Benghazi?? That's right...the highest ranking official who could give an unfavorable account of President Obama's actions. Coincidence? I suppose it's possible...the way that a meteor could possibly fall on my head and crush me in the next five seconds.....nope, didn't happen, I'm still here!
And Andy Levy brought up a great point on RedEye tonight. He said, using his Army background as a reference, that when an official is compromised, they are stripped of command IMMEDIATELY! A currant Special Forces soldier backed him up on that. So if this affair was known about before, then why did it take until now for him to resign/be fired. No, no...the whole thing doesn't make sense. Unless.....
A lot of people have taken to referring to Barack Obama's politics as "Chicago Politics," a term used to denote the cheating, swindling, lying, do anything to win political attitude characterized by many Chicago-bred politicians. However, I don't think that's quite right in it's scale. Obama, while as corrupt as any Chicago politician, is bigger and badder than any dude coming out of Illinois...and that includes Jake Blues! No, Obama's politics are more akin to those of Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin, of Soviet Russian infamy. His politics are more closely aligned to his Communist philosophies than to any Chicago scandal. (Did you know if you look up the Wikipedia series on Communism, the second person on the list of "Leading Individuals" is Barack Obama?? Seriously. Go check it out before it's removed by one of the new Cheka. I have no idea how that slipped past the Obamunists, but it's pretty funny that it did.)
Obama's new government is more akin to Lenin or Stalin than anything from past America. They're not Chicago politics; they're Moscow politics. And remembering that Marxism was understood and applied differently by different socialist leaders, Obama's new socialism will probably also look different than Lenin's or Stalin's. It already does in many ways, with the slow revolution and indoctrination rather than the quick ones of the past. However, some policies will be the same. Take, for instance, the Petraeus resignation. Joseph Stalin, when he came to power consolidated more power in himself than Lenin did, and he also accused past compatriots of crimes in order to justify silencing them. Trotsky himself, a leading figure in the socialist revolution, was banished (and eventually murdered) at the will of Stalin. Many former leaders met the same fate. Fast forward to America today: Petraeus resigns, the press pounce all over the "scandal" even though their idol Billy Clinton was praised for the same thing. Petraeus now has no credibility to testify against the White House. Hillary Clinton, the second biggest name in the Benghazi scandal, has stated she will also resign early next year. Eric Holder, head of the Justice Department and chief figure in the Fast and Furious scandal, has announced he will resign as well. Notice a pattern here? Any known incident that could be pointed back at Obama will go down on those people's shoulders, far from his own. And they won't be brought up again. Stalin, in what was called "The Great Purge", blamed all his failures on others and had those others removed from office. Sound familiar? Get used to it. Because we've only just begun the second round of Moscow politics. Look for Obama, in this term, to blame all his failures on others in his administration and the Republican Party. Through that, he will simultaneously keep himself clear of any blame, and he will discredit all of his opponents until there is no chance the "mob" will ever believe in or admire a conservative again. The Republican Party will assimilate into Obama's government, or cease to exist. In this term, look for the opponents to be crushed, either by scandal (real or otherwise) or by the new Cheka (the head of Planned Parenthood has already told the GOP to lose the Pro-Life crowd). Look for the new "Great Purge," already begun by the firing of Rear Admirals and Generals who were known to disagree with the White House, to increase in this term until the security of the Democratic-Socialist Party is well in hand for the foreseeable future. That's the next step in the Communist playbook, and so far Obama has been following it all the way. There's no reason to believe he'll stop now.

The new Cheka
"Bolshevik Freedom"
Shortly after the October Revolution of 1917 which formed the first Socialist Soviet Union in Russia, Vladimir Lenin created "The Whole-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter-Revolution and Sabotage," or Cheka, for short. It was the first of a succession of Soviet state security organizations, initially formed to fight against counter-revolutionaries and saboteurs.
Cheka created 5 classifications that those counter-revolutionaries fell into:
1. any civil or military servicemen suspected of working for Imperial Russia;
2. families of officers-volunteers (including children);
3. all clergy;
4. workers and peasants who were under suspicion of not supporting the Soviet government;
5. any other person whose private property was valued at over 10,000 rubles.
At the direction of Lenin, the Cheka performed mass arrests, imprisonments, and executions of "enemies of the people". In this, the Cheka said that they targeted "class enemies" such as the bourgeoisie (the upper-middle class), and members of the clergy. The first organized mass repression began against the libertarians and socialists of Petrograd in April 1918. Over the next few months, 800 were arrested and shot without trial.
Within a month, the Cheka had extended its repression to all political opponents of the communist government, including anarchists and others on the left.
Many victims of Cheka repression were 'bourgeois hostages' rounded up and held in readiness for summary execution in reprisal for any alleged counter-revolutionary act. Lenin's dictum was: that it was better to arrest 100 innocent people rather than to risk one enemy going free. That ensured that wholesale, indiscriminate arrests became an integral part of the system.
The proceeding crackdown on all who opposed, or were accused of opposing, was given the name "Red Terror."
The stated purpose of the Red Terror was to eliminate counter-revolutionaries who belonged to former "ruling classes". Martin Latsis, chief of the Ukrainian Cheka, explained in the newspaper Red Terror:
"Do not look in the file of incriminating evidence to see whether or not the accused rose up against the Soviets with arms or words. Ask him instead to which class he belongs, what is his background, his education, his profession. These are the questions that will determine the fate of the accused. That is the meaning and essence of the Red Terror."
Grigory Zinoviev declared in mid-September 1918: "To overcome of our enemies we must have our own socialist militarism. We must carry along with us 90 million out of the 100 million of Soviet Russia's population. As for the rest, we have nothing to say to them. They must be annihilated."
In short, the Cheka was the power that forcefully attempted to stamp out all political opposition to the new communist government. They policed labor camps; ran the Gulag system; conducted requisitions of food; subjected political opponents to torture and summary execution; and put down rebellions and riots by workers or peasants, and mutinies in the desertion-plagued Red Army. During the Red Terror, they killed between 500,000 and 1,000,000 people.
In America today, our government is changing. We have elected and re-elected our first Marxist president. The same socialistic ideas that were established by Lenin in 1917 Russia are now beginning to be implemented here. The same ideologies of class warfare and uniting the poor against the rich are being spread by our leaders, just as they were by Lenin and the Soviet leaders of 1917. And just as in 1917, there are groups that oppose such socioeconomic changes. However, in today's world, a violent oppression of such opposition like the one instituted by the Russian Cheka would be immediately condemned...especially in a place such as America. Not saying that a future violent oppression won't happen here, but as of now, it would not be tolerated. And so, a new Cheka is needed in order to progress socialism here (and the rest of the "civilized" world).
In America, the Constitution makes suppression harder than in other parts of the world. The First Amendment protects against the type of censorship that was instituted by Lenin early into the Soviet reign that closed down all newspapers critical of the régime and prevented all state papers from writing anything derogatory about the government. The 2nd Amendment protects the people's right to own weapons, which makes violent suppression harder. Again, not saying that those won't be done away with in a future America, but as for now, they still stand to protect against government suppression to opposition.
But today a new Cheka has been formed. It is no longer a physical arm of the government, as it was in Russia. The American Cheka exists directly in the minds of the American people. It's quite brilliant actually. Instead of a quick revolution, like in Russia in 1917, the move towards socialism here in America has been a slow one. Ronald Reagan warned about it 40 years ago when he quoted the Socialist Party candidate Norman Thomas, saying, "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened." The slow socialist revolution here in America has also slowly introduced the new Cheka. This new Cheka has been implanted into the very souls of Americans for the past 40 odd years. It started in the schools. The removal of God, prayer, and the Pledge of Allegiance from the public schools has since spread into all aspects of public life in America, slowly building the new Cheka. All aspects of opposition to the socialist movement have been weeded out of our minds over the past 40 years, and now there is a whole generation of people who have been groomed to be part of the new Cheka. It is no longer the government that wields the oppressive power for the "revolution;" it is the people themselves.
Let's revisit those classifications of counter-revolutionaries created by the original Russian Cheka.
1. Any civil or military servicemen suspected of working for Imperial Russia.
In today's America, the Justice Department has classified returning veterans as threats to national security, citing instances of soldiers traumatized by war having mental breakdowns and turning their weapons on the general public. While this occurrence happens rarely, the public has been warned to be wary of all military and ex-military personnel.
2. Families of officers-volunteers (including children).
Most military families (including children) support fully the military and those who are in it and, due to their inner knowledge of war and the importance of our military to our freedom, hold conservative values about patriotism, warfare, and the necessity of a strong and active military. Those ideas are today being labeled as "war-mongering" and a strong military is viewed as unnecessary.
3. All clergy.
Perhaps no other group of people has been as demonized in current America as has the "overtly religious." Organized religion has been deemed "old-fashioned" and even foolish in an ever increasingly secular society. Organized religions' stand against abortion and gay marriage has served as a rallying cry to label all who hold such beliefs as "intolerant extremists." In today's America, religious has become synonymous with intolerant, and so is mocked and railed against.
4. Workers and peasants who were under suspicion of not supporting the Soviet government.
In today's America, all people who are considered a certain social, ethnic, or economic group are expected to support one way of thought...today it's the Democrat way...all the time, no exceptions. With the advent of a black man as that Democrat, that perception is intensified. Any person of a minority race (or any woman) who supported Mitt Romney for President was vilified in the most vilest of ways.
5. Any other person whose private property was valued at over 10,000 rubles.
Barack Obama has introduced the class warfare of Marx to demonize the wealthy in America today. An increasing number of Americans want to "tax the wealthy" and movements such as Occupy Wall Street are instilling the idea that the rich are the problem. It reached such a frenzied point in the campaign season that Mitt Romney was being criticized for being a successful businessman.
The very same groups who were singled out as opponents to socialism in 1917 are being singled out today. The very same people who were targeted by the original Cheka are being targeted by the new Cheka. Although today, the new Cheka will not bust down your door in the middle of the night and haul you off to a gulag or shoot you. The new Cheka, cultivated in American minds for over 40 years, will oppress you verbally, mentally, and emotionally. The new Cheka lives under the mask of tolerance; it's why those claiming to be the most "tolerant" will lash out in the most intolerant manner towards anyone with a different view. It's because they are not really tolerant, they are the Cheka. The new Cheka has been raised in the minds of the populace; it IS the populace. The new Cheka does the same job as the old Cheka, they only do it in a more subtle manner. And they've disguised their true motive so well that the common person now in America is part of the Cheka. From celebrities to media to teachers and professors, the wave of the new Cheka has swept through the American people until it has overtaken the majority.
Now it does it's work, oppressing any who oppose the rise of socialism here in America. It will label you as racist, misogynistic, homophobic, backwoods, old-fashioned, unintelligent, foolish, Islamophobic, extremist, and any other derogatory name it can think of. It will seek to brand you as something so terrible that no one should ever listen to anything you say again. It will seek to silence you, to intimidate you, to isolate you, to abrogate you, to shut you up any way possible. It still follows Lenin's dictum. That's why anyone who would criticize President Obama is called a racist; it would rather label 100 innocent people as racists than let one person free to speak against it's rulers. Wholesale and indiscriminate targeting is still an integral part of the system. The new Cheka does the exact same job as the original Russian Cheka from 1917: to weed out and indiscriminately eliminate any political opposition. And just like Grigory Zinoviev said in 1918, it's goal is to carry the majority into socialism and annihilate the rest. Although this time it won't do it through the force of violence, it will do it through the force of the populace.
That is the new Cheka. This is the new Red Terror.

National Suicide or a Call to Arms?
Great article by Craig Andresen over at The National Patriot.
So…..
Who would have guessed that Americans would enjoy free birth control pills, punishing success, food stamps, welfare, reduced freedoms, a weak national defense, appeasement of Islamists, high unemployment, a staggering and growing national debt, borrowing money from China, jacking up taxes, government control of your healthcare decisions and killing their unborn children to this degree?
Who would have guessed that the American people would just keep digging from the bottom of a mine shaft to nowhere?
What’s the matter America?
Gas prices not high enough yet?
Your share of the national debt hasn’t hit 4 times your annual salary?
The dollar hasn’t been devalued far enough yet to suit you?
Not enough Constitution hating legislators on the Supreme Court yet?
What is it for Christ’s sake???
What’s it gonna take to wake up more than just die-hard engaged conservatives???
The Arab Spring Parade down Main Street of YOUR town?
I mean…Detroit is a rat hole and Dearbornistan is being run by the Muslim Brotherhood and yet, Michigan still votes for socialists.
On the East Coast…New York and New Jersey…people are homeless and those who still have a home don’t have electricity, don’t have heat, can’t buy gas, garbage and debris is everywhere and non union workers are chased out of town but, THEY still vote for MORE government.
The SAME “more government” who isn’t doing a damned thing to help them.
Hey…Jersey…Staten Island…Not thirsty enough yet???
Maybe we just don’t have enough Americans getting killed by terrorists on the other side of the world because the very people who should be protecting them AREN’T and they’re telling those who COULD have to “STAND DOWN!!”
Conservatives have had quite enough thank you very much but…
