Takin' It To The Streets

It would have been hard for even the most indifferent American not to have seen at least one video clip of the hundreds of thousands(looked more like a million plus to me) Iranians who finally said “I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!”, and flooded downtown Tehran. These are not just radical students or a few outspoken secular Muslims. This is an entire cross-section of the entire population who are fed up with an autocratic, theocratic, despotic and corrupt government. I actually know two who are 50-something, degreed, professional people who went into the streets knowing there was at least a possibility that they would be beaten, arrested, or even shot by government goons.

So what, you say. What do I care what if a bunch of Middle Easterners get all stirred up and go do a big protest? Got nothin' to do with me. Well I've got a news alert for you- it's got everything to do with you if you love this country and want your children and grandchildren to grow up with some semblance of the freedom and prosperity you've enjoyed up to now. You see, even a group as dictatorial and backward as the mullahs got rattled. They don't have enough police in their police state to put down an uprising of this magnitude. They realize that when enough of their subjects have had enough, and don't care what happens to them anymore, they're history. A couple of hundred students – no problem. Send in the jackbooted thugs, bang a few heads, haul 'em off to jail. End of protest, end of story. But hundreds of thousands, day after day? Keep in mind, this isn't even a movement (yet) to throw out the Islamist rulers. This is as simple as having your vote counted, for a position that has only the power the Guardian Council allows it. Make no mistake - they're plenty nervous. So again, what does this have to do with me, and why should I care?

If you're not aware yet that you are living under an autocratic, despotic and corrupt government intent on controlling more and more of every facet of your life and livelihood, well, you will figure it out soon enough. This administration and Congress is on a jihad of its own to dismantle the very foundations of this country. Left unchecked, they will do more damage than can be undone in at least a generation. The saving grace for America is that we still have reasonably free and fair elections. Our very own “Dear Leaders” don't yet have absolute power, and must answer to the people every two, four or six years. Unfortunately the next opportunity to effect any change through the ballot box is still 18 months away. Given the stunning speed and scope of the “change” that's being crammed down our throats, we need to do everything in our power to put a stop to, or at least slow down, this “remaking” of America.

That means you're going to have to get off your butt and take to the streets. You no longer have the option of sitting idly by and complaining. Yes,you can continue to harass your local Congressweasel, but it's easy for them to filter and ignore negative voice and e-mails. The one thing they can't ignore is a vocal, visible, and angry electorate. Our “representatives” are really afraid of only one thing – losing the next election. They've been able to count on the ignorance, indifference and collective amnesia of their constituents and just lie their way back to Washington DC year after year after year. They need a giant wake-up call, and hundreds of thousands, or better yet, millions of angry citizens exercising their right to peaceably assemble and petition their government will damn sure get their attention.

Independence Day is rapidly approaching, and this is one year we'll have to forget about the hot dogs and fireworks. We need to far exceed the turnout for the Tax Day Tea Party rallies, and Take It To The Streets! This means you, your children, your neighbors and anyone else you can round up. There are thousands of events planned across the country, and you can find one in your area here:

If you value your freedom, and want to see the America our founders envisioned survive for your kids and grandkids, this is a small price to pay. Many before us have made the ultimate sacrifice, and it's our turn to do what we can to ensure that it was not in vain. Let's roll!

Conspiracy Theory??

So who's really in charge of this country, anyway? Since I just heard a sermon on the book of Revelation, I do know who wrote the whole script. And as a good friend once said, once you get to heaven you'll know the answers to all your questions but you won't care anymore!. But what about the people/forces/organizations that are pulling the strings down here, right now?

I'll give you a warning right now – this is going to be a lot of speculation, rumination, and guesswork on my part. I don't even begin to claim that I have any inside knowledge or special divination. But given what's become of our country in just the last 6 months, you'd have to be deaf, blind and dumb not to wonder just a little, bit, wouldn't you?

Even in the dumbed down USA in the 21st century, how exactly does a Chicago hack politician go from a “coming out” speech at the Democratic convention in 2004 to hijack a once free and proud country just 4 years later? A man of dubious parentage, unproven citizenship, no real accomplishment, and with not a scrap of records from his schooling,”legal work”, or even his bar exam becomes (barf) President? While you've gotta admire the Daley Machine for the way they've systematically corrupted and looted Chicago for over 40 years, even they don't have the kind of pull it takes to put a lightweight like Barry Hussein Soetero Obama Messiah in the Oval Office There's got to be some kind of Wizard of Oz behind the curtains pulling all those levers.

I do know the Socialists/Leftists/One Worlders have been trying to dismantle this country for a looong time. Maybe there's a little more coordinated strategy and agenda than meets the MSM eye? I'm not going into a rant about the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderbergers, or the Club of Rome, but just take a look at what the Federal Reserve's been doing. Trillions of dollars spent, pledged, loaned and printed, and we can't even look at their books?? And who exactly is it that owns the Fed? Quick hint- it ain't the US taxpayer, it's a consortium of private international bankers! And how was it that just when McCain/Palin started to surge in the campaign, there was a massive run on US money market funds that precipitated the whole meltdown? Financial Market Manipulation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCcRT-y2_rg Do you think this was a bunch of retired schoolteachers getting cold feet and all deciding to pull their funds on the same day? While I can't point a finger at any person or group in particular, it might be worth reminding you that the benevolent socialist George Soros has nearly bankrupted several countries with his currency manipulations. Just sayin... if you think this whole mess is the fault of too many clueless libtards, think again. Or better yet, do your own research on groups like the CFR. And see just how much information you can manage to access on the ownership and finances of the Federal Reserve. At the very least write your Congressweasel and tell them to support HR1207- Ron Paul's bill to audit the Fed. - you might be surprised at what scurries off to dark places when the light is switched on.
