You HAVE to act on this, folks. You just have to.

Today’s video is a bit longer than normal…a few second shy of 30 minutes…but it is important. Very important if you are a little boy in Utah.

Today I’m just going to tell you a story…a story about a mom, her little boy, a vindictive ex-husband, and an abusive government official who thinks she is above all control.

Now…let’s see if I can piss you off enough to get you taking action:

Do you REALLY want the US to be a “poor” nation?  We will be, unless…

You know, President Obama… Along with his minions in Congress (Democrats and Republicans alike) have suddenly decided that the cuts, you know… The cuts that were gonna be caused by the sequester, the cuts that Congress would work hard to avoid by actually getting something done (yeah, right…on what planet will that happen?), the cuts that are’nt really cuts… Are all of a sudden “draconian cuts”.

President Obama’s minions have worked very hard to intentionally make it appear that these horrific cuts will damage the nation, the economy, the poor, and of course… The children.

They always say it’s about the children.

The FDA now tells us that our food will be less safe, because they have to lay off food inspectors. (As if they did any good, anyway).

Anyway, I thought it might be nice to look at exactly how the government decides that these draconian cuts are going to destroy the country… How these draconian cuts are going to make the government less able to function this year than it did last year (as though it actually functioned well last year… NOT!)

Don’t be surprised while you’re watching the video to find out that what the government considers a cut and what real people consider a cut are two dramatically different things.
Here’s a newsflash folks.
 

President Obama, the Senate (including, probably, your senator) the House of Representatives (including, probably, your representative), and every single member of the Obama cabinet can only be described with three words:

bald faced liars.

Folks, you better wake up. You better do something. You better do something now. All you have to do to see where this is headed is look at what happened in Europe already this week. The European Union just ordered the banks and European countries to seize the assets of account owners. In Cyprus, banks were ordered to seize all assets over $35,000.

I suppose in Cyprus. If you have more than $35,000. You’re one of the evil rich.

Now, you have to ask yourself a question:

just how long are you going to put up with this shit?

Sometimes corporations are their own worst enemies

English: Four ounces of low-grade marijuana, u...

You know, sometimes corporations just ASK for abuse

Anybody who reads very much of my stuff knows that I am a laissez-faire capitalist. I like capitalism. I support capitalism. I am a capitalist.

With that said sometimes capitalist… Corporations… Do some really stupid things and ask for the abuse they get. I’m talking about big corporations in general, but today I’m specifically talking about FedEx, Federal Express, and what some of their stupid people can do.

I read a news story in the Washington Post, and the headline pretty much tells the whole story. “Massachusetts woman sues FedEx over errorness marijuana delivery; says dealers looked for package”.

This is the second of a three part post, an installment each week for the next two weeks.  The first installment can be seen here.  The article was originally posted in its entirety at Common Sense Conversation and is reposted here in serial

Cover of "Rules for Radicals"

Cover of Rules for Radicals

form by its author.  It is the author’s sincere belief that we citizens of the United States are about to lose this country, at least as far as we (think) we know it as the freest country on the planet…and that once lost, it will be impossible to recover.

To understand the “gun argument, you have to first understand the players in the game:

The pacifists

Like Neville Chamberlain, the prime minister of Great Britain in 1939, just prior to the start of World War II, there are those in the United States that believe in appeasing aggressors, be they tyrannical governments or neighborhood gang thugs, and who believe there is no need for an armed citizenry, who truly believe getting rid of guns will reduce violent crime and slaughter as in what happened at Sandy Hook.  These people, who would rather be peaceful, non-violent slaves rather than passionate defenders of the constitution, are fortunately the smallest in numbers, of the three groups involved in the gun debate, and are the least dangerous to the constitution because, as in every fight, they are ultimately pacifists and appeasers and will not fight, even for something they believe in.

These are the people Samuel Adams was speaking of when he said, “If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

The constitutionalists

These are the people in the debate who believe in the rule of law, who believe that we are a nation of laws, not of men, and who would win the gun debate were it to be fought with reason and logic.  Oddly, this group of people are also the most moderate for that very reason…they believe in the rule of law and the principles ensconced in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.  While this group (the author included) generally believe in the 2nd Amendment, they also acknowledge that there is a process by which the 2nd Amendment and legal gun ownership can be done away with…but that abolishment of gun rights should be done through the process of amending the Constitution, not by simply ignoring one of its precepts, if the right to “keep and bear arms” is to be done away with.

The radical left

This group, AKA “progressives” (though they are anything BUT progressive), should not be confused with Democrats, at least not “core” Democrats.  These are the collectivists, the “true believers” in a government that should be all controlling, all knowing, and obeyed without question.  These are the people Saul Alinsky was talking to in his book “Rules for Radicals” when he called for change at whatever the cost, when he said the end justifies the means…including if it means blood in the streets.

These are the people George Orwell was talking about in “1984”, the controllers in the 1971 Stanley Kubrick movie “A Clockwork Orange“.

Next week:  “Tell us about the 2nd Amendment (part 3, The Answers”.
