Treason, High Crimes and Misdemeanors

Update: The two other embassy employees have now been identified as Navy SEALs Glen Doherty, 42, a native of Winchester, Mass., and Tyrone Woods, 41. RIP gentlemen. This author's gratitude for your service and sincere condolences and prayers go out to your families and friends as they do also to the families and friends of Ambassador Stevens and Mr. Smith. Please also note that there have been some changes in the last paragraph since the original posting.
I also neglected to note the conclusion of the UN conference on small arms. One in which Mrs. rodham-clinton has been doing her level best to commit the USA to UN gun control without the approval of congress or the American people. My apologies for that egregious omission.
As I am quite sure that most informed people have heard by now, our embassies are being attacked across the middle east. Our ambassador to Libya, Mr.J Christopher Stevens along with Mr. Sean Smith, and two other embassy employees whose names have not yet been released, were cruelly and foully murdered.

Murdered? wasn't this just a spontaneous riot situation emerging out of a protest? Not according to the reports I've read, unless you happen to be of the opinion that normal people bring rocket propelled grenade launchers to a protest. In addition, I cannot adequately convey the depth of my loathing for the people who did this. What makes it different from any other terrorist attack or riot that loathing is the appropriate reaction? This article, which says that the ambassador was raped before he was murdered. The quote in the article attributed to Mr. obama, is also quite, quite reprehensible. It indicates that the only reason to be upset over the murder is ...well I'll let you read it yourself. Perhaps it is a glitch in the translation software, that would be nice, but I suspect it is not.

"Obama said in a statement after the murder of the u.s. Ambassador and three employees in a missile attack on their car in Benghazi "I asked my Department to provide all the necessary resources to ensure our employees in Libya and tighten security at diplomatic missions throughout the world."

"The US Administration refuses to abuse the religious beliefs of others but we clearly oppose this kind of senseless violence, which wasted lives of agents of the State".

That's right, it's not about the loss of 4 unique and intrinsically valuable human beings, but about losing tools for the government. I hope that is nothing more than a translation fail, because, if not, it is a human being fail on the part of Mr. obama.

Mr. obama is, apparently even refusing to call this a terror attack. I have to admit he's correct there. It wasn't a terror attack-it was an act of war. Yes, an attack on an embassy is an act of war and everyone knows this. Yet, we are being asked to believe that the totalitarian regimes who oppress these people were unable to provide adequate security or even facilities for our embassy in Libya. A situation bound to invite trouble. Perhaps Mr. obama would have been inclined to fix it, had he been attending his intelligence briefings to know of it. But he had been skipping them for the past few days. Why?

Then there is the egregious first part of the statement-the apology. It is un-American, unethical, treasonous, and a violation of the oath of office - assuming he actually took it that second time around. Americans can say whatever they like about whatever they like and if it offends someone-too bad!

 For instance, right now, I will say that islam is evil. It is a religion of evil and nothing but evil. I can even say that I think Mr. obama is receiving these embassy attacks as a gift, payback if you will, from the muslim brotherhood for putting them in power so that they can be that much closer to achieving their goal of re-establishing the caliphate.  I can say that I think he is and will be using these attacks for political reasons and that we can expect them to continue until the election.  I can say that, without fear of reprisal, here, because my right to say it is a self-evident, God given, constitutionally affirmed, American right and many people have paid for it in blood since this nation's founding. To deny it would be a slap in the face of our military past and present and a denial of all that America stands for.

Why would I say that? Because I think it is true. This particular date, in addition to being a re-run of 9-11 for Americans was also the date on which a Judicial Committee hearing on Mr. obama's abuse of government power was scheduled. Have we heard anything about that? Nope. A report also came out yesterday saying that seniors and the poor are going to be more likely to die under obamacare than if the Congress and this administration had kept their power hungry, meddling hands off of our health care system. Have you heard that? No?
Here's another story you probably won't be hearing much about that also came out yesterday. A federal judge ruled the indefinite detention provision of the NDAA to be unconstitutional. Then there are the numbers from the census dept. showing very bad things for the obama administration's handling of the economy as well. Let's not forget the unconstitutional attack on the right to bear arms as well. Some may read that one and say it's just common sense. Constitutionally aware citizens know that the federal government is specifically prohibited by the Constitution from restricting the right to bear arms. That is wholly a state issue.
Then there is Mr. obama's sending of representatives from major US corporations to jump start the economy - of Egypt, the announcement of QE3 and etc. on down the line.

How much blood will need to be spilled to cover up this traitorous usurper's path to the "fundamental transformation" (i.e. total destruction) of America?

Oh sure, I can read. The msm and politicians of all stripes are rushing to cover their you know whats and indulging in utterly disgusting sound bites to enhance their political campaigns/careers over this. Claiming that it wasn't an act of war(it was), that it wasn't reflective of "true" islam (it is), and then gradually segueing into a blame the victim spiel that would make the most practiced cult manipulator or abuser proud. Condemning the rights of American citizens to say whatever they want. (Coptic Christians who fled here from Egypt were thought to be the producers of the film that supposedly set this off.) Claiming that they offended the followers of islam by saying mean things about their prophet. Boo-Hoo. The film's producer, American-Israeli filmmaker Sam Bacile, was doing us a service, attempting to wake America up to the danger of the true islam. He said "Islam is a cancer, period,"  If the result of that little film is this violence and murder, I have to say any reasonable observer who is not in denial would tend to agree with the filmmaker about true islam and the evil that it produces in the world.

Oh, but the leaders of those nations are apologizing and the citizens are saying they don't support those actions. (While still condemning the poorly made film and the insult they claim to their evil prophet and his even more heinous deity.) Well, you know what? Tough noogies. When I combine these latest outrages with the writings and doctrines of islam, the picture I see is one of deceit, manipulation and continuing violence to ensure the overall goal of islam-that of world wide conquest.

As for those who were outside the Libyan embassy with signs of condemnation for the acts of the murderers - where were they that night? Where were they when they knew that this was happening? Hiding? Evincing the same cowardice Americans have been showing regarding this and many other issues for years by indulging in some comfortable denial of the truth? Or were they in the crowds that murdered our fellow citizens in cold blood? If you want me to believe that you are sincere about deploring this behavior then prove it. Look at your "religion" objectively, recognize it for the evil that it is and walk away from it. Repudiate it utterly and with such strength that those you claim to be a small number of fundamentalists will not dare to show their faces for fear of YOU. And that conversion away from the evil that is islam needs to start at the top.

Until that happens I will not be fooled or manipulated. On Tuesday, I would have said, that instead of military might, we need to make a concerted effort to use the greatest weapon at our disposal to help these people -Christianity. But now I see that they will only convert to Christianity after a show of strength to convince them that Christians are not doormats. So be it.

All right, that is out of my system. Now I will say, Christianity is still our greatest weapon and we are fools and cowards who refrain from using it to it's fullest potential.

As for Mr. obama, his apologies are nothing short of treason. (and not the first instance of treason on his part either.) I called Mr. Boehner and Mr. Inouye's offices yesterday to demand that he be impeached. How can I say it is treason? There is an obviously planned attack on US embassies. An overt act of war against America. In the islamic world, any failure to meet such a provocation with equal or greater force is seen as submission. And what did our usurper do? Did he meet force with force? Did he demand the murderers be given over into American hands immediately under threat of greater force? Did he show that America is still to be respected in any way? No. He apologized. He submitted totally and completely in a manner designed to show the islamic world that America has just surrendered to the muslim brotherhood. And as a man who was quoted on the campaign trail in 2008 as saying the morning call to prayer is the prettiest sound in the world, who then went on to perfectly perform that call to prayer with accuracy and to compliments from islamic leaders, is there any way that he could possibly claim to be ignorant of what he has just done? There is not. It is treason, blatant and most foul treason. If Congress refuses to remove this traitor from office immediately and replace him with a leader who will offer an appropriate response to this desecration of our embassies and our people, then they are complicit and must also be removed. If we do not do this, immediately, then we will deserve what is coming now that the islamic world regards America as their conquered dhimmis.
 Will the rest of America join me? Or will you merely post to facebook and sign impotent petitions left and right and tweet your outrage while refusing to call your elected representatives out of fear? Fear of what? Being thought crazy or unreasonable? Grow up and do your civic duty...before it's too late.

(My apologies to Mr. Boehner's aide, for being overly grouchy at her - but really? Is that the kind of c*** you've been using to intimidate American citizens out of demanding that Congress do it's job? You all ought to be ashamed of yourselves!)

Loose Lips Sink Ships

My apologies for taking so long to post something new. Life was requiring more of my attention for the past few months and it irritates me that I now have to use google chrome to make a post here. (I prefer IE) 

I have just seen a video that requested and deserves to be posted far and wide, so I have facebooked it, tweeted it and have decided to post it here, although I generally prefer to fill this space with my own work. I will attempt to contact someone within the organization that made this video to interview for the show as well.



I have posted in the past about the duty of the people of this nation to support our troops. I have posted about the idea that we need to be doing and having as policy that which has been shown to bring home the greatest number of our troops alive no matter how politically correct or incorrect it may be. I have posted about how it is our duty to maintain the republic here, so that our fellow citizens who risk life and limb for it in battle can return to the same freedoms they had when they entered the service. This video deserves the same and more consideration. 

Please watch and share this video. It's a bit long, but I am regarding it as a part of my duty as a citizen to acquiesce to the request of the fine men and women whose lives may be saved by so doing. Do your part-watch it and pass it on. 

"A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear  " ~ Proverbs 25:11-12

Gardening

Ah, the wonder of a garden. The whole process of putting a tiny thing into the ground and Voila! a plant springs forth. A plant that I neither created nor command. A tiny miracle every time it happens. Life manifested, complete and perfect.


There is a lot to love about a garden, the flowers, the edibles, the wonderful smelling herbs that can be grown. The sheer beauty of living, growing bounty. The colors of the flowers. The feeling of self-sufficiency when you know where your veggies are coming from and whether or not chemicals/fertilizer was used and, if so, what kinds. The security of collecting and saving your own seeds from year to year. But, today, I think the best thing about a garden is the weeds. 

The weeds? How can the weeds be the best thing about a garden? Weeds make a garden. A weed is any plant that is growing where you don't want it. I know, many gardening books will tell you about this or that kind of plant that is typically considered a weed, but I don't agree. In the first place, many of those plants are edible and very nutritious.  In the second place, some are quite beautiful and fully deserving of being in a garden on their own merit.

But weeds are essential to the gardening process. They make you pay attention to your garden. If you don't weed, then your plants will suffer for it. If you don't weed, you will have a more difficult time with harvesting your plants when the time comes. (Especially if your garden's weed of choice is thistles- as mine seems to be) In other words the weeds are the "works" of your garden. You may have read in your Bible that  "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also "(James 2:26) even though you know that "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Eph 2:8-9) So, just as, by God's grace, those seeds miraculously spring into life, so too do the weeds, which are the "works" for you, to keep you tending your garden. 


In addition, weeds make you think. Sometimes a weed will come up and, if it looks interesting, I'll let it grow to find out what it is. I have gotten some lovely flowers and a few nice herbs that way. Sure, I didn't plant them, but that's no reason not to take advantage of whatever agency God used to put it into my garden to enjoy it.  So weeds make you look at, and consider what is growing and make decisions on what you will allow to grow. They make you learn to discern the good plants from the bad ones. These are good skills for life. 

Then, there is my favorite part, the weeding itself. It is an excellent way to take out frustrations or even just get away from the everything and give yourself time to think. (At least before cell phones- I advise leaving them home, or at least turning them off. The world isn't likely to explode while you are weeding and if it does, you'll be in a better mood to deal with it after you're done.) 

Finally, there is the feeling of satisfaction you get, when you stand up and look over your garden and see that it is growing well(through no agency of yours, but rather by the grace of God) and safe from the loss of garden nutrients to the weeds. I know that, even though I planted the seeds, I did not cause the plants to grow. I can still take satisfaction from knowing that I am helping them by weeding. More weeds will grow, but as long as I am diligent, they won't grow very big. That is our place in helping God. God makes the plants grow. God put life into the plants and I have a choice of helping those plants to grow and flourish, or leaving them to fight the weeds for their survival. Will some of the plants grow even with the weeds? Sure they will, God gave them life and they will fight for it just as the weeds do. My only action is to help them utilize their full potential to produce good food by keeping the weeds under control, or letting them expend some of that potential in a fight against the weeds. I don't know if this makes sense to anyone else, but I choose to help.

It has been a very challenging and somewhat frustrating week, so if you will excuse me, I am going to weed my garden. 

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live" ~Deut 30:19

Duty, Honor, Sacrifice

This is more than a Memorial Day post. This is a call to duty. For over 200 years patriots have bled and died in the defense of this nation and the God given freedoms it has enshrined in it's Constitution. Our military has done their job-to protect us from threats abroad-and they have done it magnificently. They have done their duty by us and it is time to step up and do our part.

What is our part? Our part is to maintain the republic. To keep the nation as free as it was when it was founded and we have failed. We can put a stop to the tyrannical push of our current federal government, but we must do it now. We must reclaim our Constitution while we still may or suffer the loss of all that has been fought for over the past 200 years.

We owe this to those who shed their blood and gave their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to found and protect this nation. We owe it to our posterity. There is no excuse good enough for our failure thus far. There will be no excuse we can offer if we do not reclaim our nation.

"I have children and a family to consider". - So did the founders. Many lost their families, their wives, their children and never heard from them again.

"I want to obey the law". Then do it. The U S Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Without the rule of law there is no safety or security to be had. It is our duty to uphold that Constitution and to refuse to cooperate with any federal laws that are made contrary to it. In addition, kindly remember that every single man who signed the declaration of Independence was a traitor to England and could have been shot on sight.

"I don't want to make trouble." Trouble is here with or without you. The only question is, will you bestir yourself to oppose it, or will you allow it to run roughshod over your and your family's God given and constitutionally affirmed rights?

" I think that congress will sort it all out with a little more time." How much time do you think they need? So far, this Congress has authorized the NDAA . They have failed to repeal obamacare with all of it's egregious mandates. They re-authorized the patriot act. They are not challenging any of mr. obama's executive orders nor his eligibility-which should have been the first thing they did upon their swearing in, were they to keep their oaths.

"I don't know enough about this stuff to know what is the truth."  Then learn. Learn fast, because you don't have much time anymore. Start with the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Then move on to your own state's Constitution. then the Federalist and the Anti-Federalist Papers and other writings of our founders.

" But everyone will laugh at me and call me names." Then man/woman up, put on your big boy/girl pants and decide with whom you stand - the communists and followers of Islam that are currently attempting to conquer this nation or the patriots who want to restore it.  

"From the day on which an accommodation takes place between England and America, on any other terms than as independent States, I shall date the ruin of this country. a politic minister will study to lull us into security by granting us the full extent of our petitions. The warm sunshine of influence would melt down the virtue which the violence of the storm rendered more firm and unyielding. In a state of tranquillity, wealth, and luxury, our descendants would forget the arts of war and the noble activity and zeal which made their ancestors invincible. Every art of corruption would be employed to loosen the bond of union which renders our resistance formidable. When the spirit of liberty, which now animates our hearts and gives success to our arms, is extinct, our numbers will accelerate our ruin and render us easier victims to tyranny. Ye abandoned minions of an infatuated ministry, if peradventure any should yet remain among us, remember that a Warren and Montgomery are numbered among the dead. Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, What should be the reward of such sacrifices? Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship, and plow, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom--go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!" ~ Samuel Adams

Will we see the end of this republic or a new beginning?

The bottom line, on this Memorial Day is that, our fellow citizens have fought and bled and died to maintain and preserve our freedoms from enemies abroad. Now it is our turn to restore the freedoms that the Lord has given us here at home. If we had kept our wits about us, never would the federal government have been allowed such leeway, but we did not. Thus it now falls to us to make the painful and hard decisions that are  necessary to restrain or replace our federal government in order to save ourselves and our posterity from the tyranny that is daily imposed upon us in ever greater amounts. May we turn from the wickedness that has flourished under the philosophy of moral relativity and may the Lord be with us again or we shall surely fail.

" As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.

   Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.

   He hath delivered my soul in peace from the battle that was against me: for there were many with me.

   God shall hear, and afflict them, even he that abideth of old. Selah. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.

   He hath put forth his hands against such as be at peace with him: he hath broken his covenant.

   The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.

   Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

   But thou, O God, shalt bring them down into the pit of destruction: bloody and deceitful men shall not live out half their days; but I will trust in thee." ~ Psalm 55:16-23

When the SHTF

                                                                                                                                                              (The frog doesn't always stay in the pot. This frog, for instance is on a second story window)

There is a lot of speculation out there regarding what is going to happen when the Stuff Hits The Fan, or, if you are more negative TEOTWAWKI. Notice that the preceding sentence said "when" not "if". That's because there are very few who are still of the opinion that we can fix what is wrong in this nation by the diligent application of the rule of law. Or rather, very few who have any faith that the people who have been elected to restore this nation and it's Constitution will actually do so.

For a long time I held out hope that we could reclaim the offices that are currently being held by oath breakers and criminals, but I am fast losing that hope.

The thing that seems most out of place though, are the many disaster scenarios being promulgated. The idea that society will implode and civilized behavior will go by the wayside, playing right into the hands of those who have been working for it, is rampant. Why? We have enough resources and resourceful people in this nation to overcome any number of disasters.

Look at hurricane Katrina. Yes, hurricane Katrina. Not the thoroughly corrupt New Orleans, but the rest of the three state area that was simply devastated by that hurricane. Did we see rioting? Looting? No. What we saw was civilized people coming together to help each other and the community. Before the storm even hit there were groups organizing housing for those would have lost their own and contact lists for the survivors. We saw churches and private organizations stepping up and helping to rebuild. And many still are. Sure there will be a few stinkers and bad spots here and there, that's just human nature, but overall, we are better than that.

Look at New York after 9/11. Did we see looting and wholesale violence against muslims? No. When there was a power outage shortly after that in New York, did we see violence and looting? No again. We saw Americans stepping up and helping each other. Directing traffic, offering rides to each other. We saw, in other words, calm and civilized behavior.

Why should any other scenario, short of invading troops from another nation, be any different? When we step back and look at the big picture, do we really think that Americans need such a thing as martial law? We the People are the authority behind our government. There is no situation in which the Constitution needs to be suspended. Our rights are unalienable and self evident. That means not subject to the whims of legislators of any rank run amok and mad with power. Shame on us for not removing them sooner, but that's another post.

 (We are a loyal and helpful and generous and, hopefully, faithful people, as God has been to us.)
The truth is that Americans, thanks be to God, are a resourceful, generous and self-reliant people. Even were we to suffer an EMP attack, I have no doubt that anyone with even an ounce of electrical know how will be working furiously to restore basic power as quickly as possible. Far from the years long, bombed back to the 18th century scenario many have suggested, I submit to you, gentle readers, that it would be only a few weeks or months at most before we were up and running again and more thankful than ever for the nation that has been God's gift to us. No. The only people rioting in the streets will be those who have been put up to it by those who see such behavior as a way to transition this nation from a republic to an oligarchy, and we can ignore them or corral them for the local authorities as we choose.

I submit, to you gentle readers, the notion that, by the very American exceptionalism that God gave us to make this nation great, we are better than that. Leave for middle eastern countries and communist nations the riots that such disturbances bring. Let us bring our game up and show the world how a nation that God has blessed should behave. Prepare and store food and supplies by all means, that's just common sense, but don't fall for the notion that neighbors should start shooting each other because the power went off.

( I would advise against assuming that we cannot or will not rise to our own and each other's defense-we are a family.). 
As for those nations that may be preparing to take advantage of such disruptions in America, that's why we will be keeping our Bibles open, our firearms cleaned, our skills sharp and our powder dry.

" And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious." ~ Isaiah 11:10

And a hesitant welcome to the FreeJingers

I have just discovered that someone has taken a screenshot of a conversation I had with a Facebook friend and posted it in FreeJinger . This is apparently a page for liberals to make fun of us "fundies", whatever that means.

In any case, it's a shame because I was about to stop requiring moderation on my comments here, but now, given the demonstrated ignorance of the posters on this thread, I think I will wait a bit longer. Apparently, these people, who do not even know the history of their beloved obama, are assuming that I would like to see him charged with treason because of the abundance of melanin in his skin rather than for the many excellent reasons I have outlined in other posts on this site. (Like his gift of aid and comfort to our enemies during time of war.)

The incivility of the left is constantly a source of amazement to me. If I saw a post like this on a friend or a friend of a friend's Facebook page, and had an objection to it, I would have addressed it there. Apparently the correct course of action for a progressive/liberal is to take a screen shot and post it somewhere else so they can make snarky comments without giving the object of their comments the opportunity to address the issues raised. But then what else would I expect from someone who frequents a site that calls itself "FreeJinger: A Quiver Full of Snark.

I am, however, thankful that "wolfie" was at least considerate enough to blur out names, because, as I have made no secret of my opinions here and in other places, my friend does not deserve to have their conversations re-posted without their knowledge and consent. To do so, is a type of moral cowardice, in my opinion, but at least this "wolfie" person had manners enough from somewhere to leave names out of it.

Since this person "wolfie" has also posted the address to this site on that thread, I thought it only apropos to welcome those who may cruise over from that site. Welcome to you and I hope you read and learn. I used to be a liberal too. Now I know more (because I research it) and am a conservative because I value truth and reality over ideology. I hope you do as well.

"For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: " ~ Matt 25:35

FORWARD

NO! It is not the obama campaigns new slogan, it is the state motto of Wisconsin and I, for one, am not giving it up. If you look here, you will find that "Forward" has been Wisconsin's state motto since 1851. Before that, the state's motto was "CIVILITAS SUCCESSIT BARBARUM" or "Civilization has taken the place of barbarism". It is on the Wisconsin  flag, the coat of arms and the state seal. I do believe that gives us "dibs", or whatever other way you say it in your neck of the woods. It is ours and Mr. obama may not have it.

It is just as inappropriate for them to hijack our state motto as it was for the obama team to design their own presidential looking seal back in 2008. but at least there were differences between that and the real seal,. (The real seal. seems disinclined to represent Mr. obama-but that's probably just a coincidence, not an indication of the levels of competency that Mr. obama inspires.)

I understand Mr. obama's wish to claim all attention during an election year(despite his ineligibility to hold the office.) And I understand that Wisconsin has been attracting some attention of late, not only for reclaiming fiscal sanity, but doing so in a way that appears diametrically opposed to what the obama regime intends for this nation. When I look at it like that, it almost makes sense that they would try to steal our motto, in a petty and childish sort of way.

It is Wisconsin's leadership, not obamas lack of it that deserves the motto "Forward" and we are keeping it as well as reminding the nation that we are a REPUBLIC, not a democracy and that the rule of law has some meaning here. Mr. Walker and the conservative members of the state legislature are showing actual leadership, not just taking credit for the hard work of our troops who are risking their lives overseas, in order to enhance his campaign.

"For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you." ~ 2Cor 8:17
