The Political System

The Democrats and Republican two party system in place for so long has brought us numerous wars, $20 trillion in debt and a government that's grown well beyond its usefulness. There is little leadership seen in many decades and the systems we see are either a good old boy attitude or the use of a divide and conquer strategy against the electorate.Both parties are quite good at the blame game but if you believe either party supports freedom,liberty and has your welfare and the nations welfare as a keystone to their policies, well you're wrong. The only welfare ever considered by any politician has been there reelection. The only thing the bureaucracy created in DC has as a theme is to justify their existence. They are not elected officials so in many cases they are used as shock troops to divide a nation by enforcing rules and regulations in a manner that creates inferior policies. Policies that are always political in nature and not designed to better the lifes or nature of existence. To access this control all one has to do is throw money at it. Why else would a lobby system exist in our Nation capitol except for a means to buy and sell the candidate who get elected. Make no mistake the Mr Smith goes to Washington for the benifit of our society is rarely what happens. The political machine which is a ying/yang or both sides of the same coin ideology creates the candidates and directs their behavior. The puppetmasters are the wealthy and none of them agree on anything since wealth has distorted their view of reality. One has only to read the preamble to the Constitution to understand what true leadership and the role of Government is. "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."  That my friends is what the people in Congress,the Whitehouse and the Supreme Court are supposed to be doing. Its about the Constitution stupid. Not about what Washington DC and the wealthy elites have decided.   https://www.cnbc.com/2017/09/14/trumps-new-reality-republicans-and-democrats-are-both-finished.html

American Nazi Party

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Nazi_Party

American Nazi Party= World Union of Free Enterprise National Socialists. The name was changed in 1960 by George Lincoln Rockwell the founder. If you notice the so called German-American Bund aka Hitler's American Nazi Party was actually approved by Adolf Hitler. To confuse since even these people are divided you have factions of National Socialist White People's Party. Being naturally curious I wonder in what Universe does one equate these obvious "Spcialist Parties" as far Right? My belief is that the Left and Progressive movements found their brother and sister socialist so repulsive they branded them as "Far Right". Remember even Hitler found the Communist brand of socialism so competitive he started Operation Barbarossa to bring the Soviets under his brand of Socialism. The point is that believe what you want but know that no true conservative,capitalist or libertarian would ever embrace nor condone these obvious socialist idealist movements. They are not far right except to the left.                                                                                                                                                     "If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.
Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.
He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future." Adolf Hitler      

No Surprises

Flower pigs in Sedona,Arizona surprise? Well maybe not but sometimes life throws a surprise our way and flower pigs become more common place. I'm not talking about a surprise party or the big credit card bill you got back in January. No these can be expected so no surprise. What I' driving at is life changing surprises. How you go along every day and no big deal and suddenly one day you find that going to sleep is starting to be a big deal,or perhaps little things grow into big deals. My deal right now is that I'm fearing death and having panic attacks for no good reason. So why get all twisted up over so many things you can't control. Good question and I haven't a clue? I've lost interest in watching TV and find reading more difficult and lost my groove. I'm thinking cabin fever because it is Summer time and in the Phoenix area that means hot temperatures ,bad air quality because of wildfires and just normal pollution so you spend a lot of time indoors,or at least I do. I'm sure that is part of it but I'm getting older and feeling it more. The disability problems I've had for 16 years or so are not getting better and little good news is happening. Everything has fallen into a black or white category with little to none of those gray areas we use to cherish. Life has gotten to serious and really is not so great that I should be fearing dying or having panic attacks. I'm feeling that meditation of some sort is a good start to learning to return to an easier and less fearful way of life. The problem is reading and doing with acceptance this meditation is difficult right now but I have to change some paradigms to get back to where I was a few months ago. Carefree and full of confidence well something close to that will be acceptable. I just need a return to a less stressful life. It would seem some people thrive on stress these days but I'm just getting to old for that way and noticing my life is changing for many reasons and they all relate to getting old. I know 67 years old is not such an old age these days but some of us have higher mileage on our chassis and a disability or several disabilities is starting to add up and not in a positive way. I'm seeing more and more of our friends and people we know are dying because as we get older that is what happens. So the push is going to be learn to relax again. Yes I use to be able to do this so just go back to how I looked at things in my earlier life and toss off this yoke of fear that seems to be a problem now and just feel different. Be myself and relax that is what I need to do and it sounds like good advise for anyone these days.         

The Left wants you to behave it is just their nature

"The American people are like little children. We have to hold their sticky fingers and wipe their filthy mouths, teach them right from wrong. Tell them what to think and how to feel, and what to want. They even need help writing their wildest dreams, crafting their worst fears. Lucky for them they have me." –Frank Underwood, House of Cards    The wet dreams of certain people with a lefty bent,the persona of the elite on display.

Freedom?

Lucky me it is 3:20 am and I'm awake and boom after looking at Drudge Report I start thinking about Freedom. The way we perceive our reality changes as we get older. So does my sleep cycle but hey this tidbit is about FREEDOM. When I was young I use to think the US government and mankind as a whole was leaning toward the good. Let face it John Wayne was always right,the good guys wore white hats and the train never run over Pauline. Dudley Do-right always got his man. Now back to reality. A good TV show to get you in the mood might be "Life on Mars" which is about a cop from the early 21st century who some how gets tossed back to 1973 and you guessed it life in the good old USA was much different then it is today,today being 2008 when the show was made. One could argue and rightly so that many changes in our way of life have occurred since 2008. Eight long years under Obama has made that change and not for the good. Now back to Freedom the main theme. Do you really believe that you have more freedom today in the good old USA or would you like to turn back the clock to say 1973 and have that kind of freedom without Gerald Ford and Nixon of course. Put Reagan in the White House if we are going to turn back the clock hell even 4 years of Goldwater might be fun? I could go on and on but the theme is freedom again and do you believe we as citizens of the good old USA have more or less these days in the year 2017. Trump is in the White House which I believe is a good thing. But every time you turn around he is being attacked by the LEFT,RINO and wanna be lefty GOP members,the media with a few exceptions and the Fifth Column that has grown on our American soil over the past couple of decades. The Fifth Column is really the problem they do include many card carrying members of both major parties and snowflakes,anarchist,commies you know the bunch of humans who want to tell you how to live your life. So long story short my gut tells me these days that this internal and political turmoil will come to a head and probably real soon. Some say civil war? I hate to say it but that Civil War on US soil is probably the direction it will take. I even think that the USA splitting up into two or more different new countries is a possibility. If so what will our children and in my case grandchildren live under in those days? Freedom and liberty like we thought we had or chains and regulations just like Orwell predicted in his novel 1984? That is the question and at this time I have no answers. That my friends is probably what wakes me up at 3am these days. Final thought I believe that the Bill of Rights as it was written is the best answer for Freedom and Liberty. It is still the law but many will tell you it needs to be written differently. You do not need a Philadelphia lawyer or any other to understand the Bill of Rights, We the people just need to enforce these RIGHTS all ten of the original and know that in 1776 people believe in those kind of rights and in 2017 or even 2217 the Bill of Rights as the cornerstone of our Republic is the "right" direction.               

Wilson an asshole

Woodrow Wilson nearly a century ago at Princeton, colleges have taught that ordinary Americans are rightly ruled by experts because they are incapable of governing themselves. Millions of graduates have identified themselves as the personifiers of expertise and believe themselves entitled to rule. This is the mentality of the Progressive movement and in some small regional areas they may be right but only for those areas. The vast majority of the USA has skilled and in many cases highly educated people who need the basics done by a small number of bureaucrats and nothing more. Keep the system working and stay the hell out of our lives,we need no stinking rulers only civil servants. The smaller the government the more freedom and liberty exists.

Slavery and bad leaders

Slavery is and has always been one of the worst sins of mankind. No sane person could/should think otherwise but several US Presidents and maybe all of them have had policies and deeds during their administration that when focused upon demonstrates that they were not the sterling people that we should worship or put up on a pedestal. They were human and like all leaders were manipulated by wealthy people who had their own agendas. This theme is nothing new it is as relevant today as it was 5,000 years ago. Money talks and absolute power corrupts it is the way of mankind and that evil at times institution of politics and the government that is it birth child. Just felt like harping on Lincoln this morning, could have been FDR,JFK, hell even Reagan it is just something people should know that no leader has ever been perfect except for Solomon and I'm sure he had plenty of bad/nasty decisions in his closet too. There is much documentation of the dictator like policies of Lincoln during the civil war it just is what it was at that time. So this is just one of many links that "in hind sight" shows how wrong a person can govern at times. 2 cents worth     https://civilwartalk.com/threads/lincoln-worst-president-in-us-history.7560/
