FURIOUS CURIOUS AND MORE CONTEMPTUOUS

 The Fast and Furious scandal involving the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms) and the DOJ (Department of Justice) over gun running has just spread out to uncover money laundering by the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration).

The DOJ has apparently been very involved in approving both the ATF gun running and now the DEA program of money laundering. The DEA stands by its laundering monitor program that it claims has operated for many years involving many countries. Yet, it has only been in operation for two years in investigating the Mexican drug cartels and recently Mexican President Calderon denies knowledge.

Therefore the expansion of the DEA’s money laundering involving Mexican drug cartels has occurred under Holder’s DOJ watch alone. Given the fiasco of the gun running operation how confident can we be that the money laundering program under this inept Department of Justice has no “walked money”.

We all know that sometimes to investigate and catch the “bad guys” especially organized crime the authorities need to use covert operations with undercover agents to both gather information and expose
 a criminal transaction.

However, there is a line between pretending to be criminal versus engagement in criminal activity on the part of any law enforcement agent or agency. This line cannot be crossed for two reasons, one there is no immunity for law enforcement and they must act within legal boundaries and two, any evidence gathered by law enforcement will be scrutinized by the court for its lawful attainment per the Exclusionary Rule.

When the ATF allowed the illegal sales of guns to unlawful intermediaries to walk across the Mexican border without arresting the individual and confiscating the guns (evidence) they violated the law. Worse of course is that as a result of that inept and illegal plan to wait until the guns arrived at their final destination in the sweaty criminal hands of the Mexican drug cartels the ATF lost track of the guns.

The results have been murderous to both hundreds of Mexican nationals and an American Border Control Agent killed by those “walked guns” that will continue to be used by criminal thugs for years to come. Congress should not rest its investigation until the victims of this government corruption is totally exposed from top to bottom.

The ATF crossed the lawful line in its “Fast and Furious” gun running sting operation and with the help of Holder’s DOJ tried to cover up the fiasco. However, the ultimate question has yet to be answered; under whose authority did these guns get the green light to “walk” across the border?

Now we have discovered that a program styled similar to the gun running but involving money laundering is being carried out by the DEA. Mexican cartels are using intermediaries to launder money in the United States to clean it from its illegal history.

Why is California Representative Darrell Issa probing into this DEA sting operation? Simple, when you have a Holder Justice Department that has failed to be straightforward with Congress, dragged his feet on adherence to subpoenaed material and has made every effort to conceal the truth about knowledge about a high risk covert operation there is no confidence in the federal enforcement system.

Will we discover that DEA is helping to facilitate the multi-million dollar Mexican cartel drug racket by also losing track of the laundered money used to aggrandize the growing criminal organizations that control Mexico where America shares close to 2,000 miles of an unprotected border?

What’s next? Will we discover that perhaps the Department of Homeland security has a program infiltrating Hezbollah in Mexico where undercover Homeland security agents are helping by digging tunnels to the United States? Perhaps maybe the FBI might have a sting operation involving sex trafficking of American prostitutes to Mexican drug cartels?

The idea that in order to stop crime we criminalize rather than deputize our law enforcement is another reason Americans need to be wary of corruption and politics insinuating itself into the executive branch of our government.

The office of the Department of Justice needs to be apolitical and operated by a constitutionally loyal and competent Attorney General.


If Eric Holder was Attorney General for the LAW and the interest of the United States and its citizenry then when his president Obama called for ignoring the Defense of Marriage Act he should have refused to comply.
He did not.

If Eric Holder understands that lady Justice is blind then the men in the Black Panther organization that stood outside the polling place in 2008 in Philadelphia intimidating voters should have been prosecuted by his
department. They were not.

If Eric Holder claims no responsibility for the Fast and Furious fiasco then when Congress asked for information regarding the covert operation he should have supplied every detail and quickly. He did not.

If Eric Holder has respect for the power and responsibility of the office of AG then when newspapers (Daily Caller) report that 52 members of Congress are calling for his resignation he should never brandish a threatening finger at the free press. He instead wagged his finger and scolded the Press to stop reporting.

This Attorney General is by far America’s most disrespectful and contemptuous top officer to ever be in charge of the foundation of our Republic’s system of law and order. At the House Judiciary Hearing
Thursday December 8th Darrell Issa (Rep of California) leading the Fast and Furious investigation warned Holder that he would be in contempt if his office if did not hand over particular e-mails to the committee unless he cited a constitutional basis exempting his office from compliance.

Holder ignored the admonition to which Issa then referenced another Attorney General that ignored Congress John Mitchell under Nixon.

Incredibly Holder’s liberal persecution complex caused him to cite another name in history that liberals liken to witch-hunting that of McCarthy by intoning the response to Issa “Have you no shame?” Part of a famous response at the McCarthy hearings by the Army lawyer Joseph Welch defending a Boston lawyer accused of communist association named Fred Fisher.


For Eric Holder to depict Issa as McCarthy or the public’s right to know (Judiciary Hearing) as a political exercise of defaming grandstanding, knowing that our government is duplicitous in the act of arming drug thugs across the border that have killed innocent Americans and Mexicans is both repugnant and deeply disturbing. Consider the insensibility
worse as Holder continues to refuse to apologize for the deaths.

Issa reference to Mitchell was far more connective of the present stonewalling by Holder and this A.G. should take note that Mitchell was prosecuted and sent to jail for 19 months.

ONE NATION UNDER GOVERNMENT

We are seeing our country become a bastion of service workers that either work for the government or the private sector to sell goods that the United States no longer manufactures. Some say it is the natural progression of the modern high tech evolvement of our economy that has matured from the Industrial complex to the robotic age of the integrated circuit.


The human assembly line of old school manufacturing is now a line of specialized robots programmed to do the task of many while being overseen and operated by a few trained people. This mechanized production along with a higher set of skill sets for human labor has been touted as the main reason that America has shifted to a service
over manufacturing based economy.

Yet is that true? Consider the old joke “How many people does it take to change a light bulb?” Well in the past you could argue it took about 800 workers plus one. That number represents the amount of factory workers manufacturing the light bulb replacement and one to screw it into the lamp.

With automation the amount of workers in the Edison factory did not decrease however even though the laborious practice of glass blowing and filament twisting was now done by machines. There were still many jobs for the human workers from testing to packaging and shipping that remained employed throughout the modern transformation from hand to machine in the Edison invention.

Americans have been sold a lie by our politicians that good paying factory jobs have progressed out of our economy naturally through the advancement of technology. Union leaders have lied to their members that greedy manufactures ran oversees to feast gluttonously on cheap labor and higher profits.

What is the real truth? The truth is that our government has been the biggest saboteur of manufacturing in this country for years. The war on capitalism did not start with the Obama administration but rather has been waged by Congress for over fifty years. The socialists Democrats have been in bed with Union leaders to bring tyranny to American manufacturing in a multi-flanked imprisonment of their healthy survival. The Republicans in Congress were equally duplicitous as we watched the dying of “made in America” factory jobs become “Maids in America” service jobs.

When I say that the Unions and our Government attacked manufacturing on many flanks I refer to Labor laws, Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA), Class Action Law suits, liability laws, EPA laws, Union contracts, National Labor Relations Board, trade deals, a huge tangle of import and export laws and of course corporate tax laws.


This has been the heavy hand of Federal government lobbied by unions to make profitability in the United States next to impossible for domestic manufacturing. The only reason that China is out producing the United States in manufacturing is that the Chinese do not have the American Congress to stand in their way.

Consider Gibson Guitar in Tennessee if you think I might be overselling the case that government has ruined our manufacturing industry. The Lacey Act is an old conservation law passed in the 1900 intended to stop the import sale of illegal wildlife, fish, plants and wood from poachers that was amended as of 2008 to add more prohibited items.


Gibson Guitar was raided by the Feds with guns drawn to seize rosewood purchased from India. The Indian government believed the sale was legal, Gibson Guitar believed the sale was legal but the Federal government holds Gibson’s business hostage while it investigates. This means the guitar making business is held hostage without charges and awaits an outcome with their property in seizure while they lose money daily.

Laws designed to protect the interests of Americans be it conservation, environmental, labor, and consumer safety among many other areas have effectively bullied manufacturing to leave America to find a haven in other countries with less regulation.

That leaves both union and non-union workers without jobs. Makes towns and cities run in the red financially with lost business tax revenue. It also makes many small businesses that did business with the lost manufacturing company close their shops. Moreover, like an economic domino effect even the small family run sub shop that sold sandwiches to the lunch hungry factory workers gets muscled out of the market by national franchised chains.

This is the Federal America that has been waging a hostile war against business under the guise of protecting us. This is the Federal government that once you are caught in its crosshairs, rightly or wrongly will destroy your career and reputation. This is the America we have made by asking for and allowing our legislators to sit on Capitol Hill and make laws governing every aspect of our lives.

There is no freedom to be immoral but equally there is no freedom from a mountain of legal constraints that America’s has imposed upon its economic engine.
Americans need to re-introduce themselves to the notion of freedom. Freedom entails mistakes along with fortune, tragedy along with happiness, failure along with success, thieves along with honest brokers and spoils along with victory.

Every law we make and call for to be made makes us less free. Every time we attempt by law to rid our society of bad actors socially or economically we instead trap more honorable people unaware of wrongdoing while the real morally bankrupt find another way to predate on innocence.

When a society has no laws we call it lawless and assume it is a chaotic place to live. Yet conversely, when a society has an overabundance of laws that constrain one’s ability to live then society ignores the law and equally becomes lawless. Yet, under the law is a foundation we call morality. That common societal morality keeps law either valued or diminished.

The law based on no morality or circumspect ethical value is bound to be broken by people who follow moral justification for their actions. Just as the immoral person will flaunt the law no matter how steeped it is on moral ground.




America has allowed special interest to transplant our nation from a moral society with limited laws for the purpose of punishing immoral acts to a nation that legally attacks our morality and has given rise to a din of laws based on empty human secular values.


The new immorality is to profit if you are a business, to display religious symbolism, to not re-cycle, to deny global warming, to call abortion killing, to smoke, to use salt, to be overweight, to use words deemed inappropriate, to utilize energy inefficient products, to believe in capitalism and to work hard and become rich.

The American economy is finally feeling the true results of decades of legislative overreach that has seen our nation on a path of decline from the hubris and atheistic influence of big nanny government. The once proud country of individual freedom watched by the God loving neighborhood of peer pressure to insure that morality was the ultimate enforcer to keep business and people honorable is gone.

The only way to return manufacturing and re-build America’s once promising future is to reverse, repeal, re-boot and return our country back to its Judeo-Christian roots as a Republic that wrote the Bill of Rights’ to expressly protect us from our current federal tyranny.

THE SOLAR POWERED RUNWAY

Secretary Stephen Chu is being chewed out by the House oversight committee on the loan guarantees given to the solar panel company that went bankrupt in August of 2011 after receiving 535 million taxpayer dollars.
Watching the hearings reminds me of a blast from the past. The senate hearings on Organized crime in the 1960’s in which Mafia bosses denied being anything other than being upstanding American citizens.
Stephen Chu claims no previous awareness of any of the politically motivated e-mails involving Solyndra by White House, investor George Kaiser, Office of Management and Budget or Soylndra executives until they were reported in the press days before he testified.
Apparently Stephen Chu the White House and the Democrats want Americans to believe there is no scandal, no illegality, no undue political influence, no break from SOP (standard operating procedure) and no incompetency.
Interesting that both the CEO and the CFO of Solyndra (Brian Harrison and W. G. Stover) both pleaded their Fifth Amendment rights and refuse to answer questions about their company to Congress weeks earlier given that all is above board in this “un-scandal”.
We have now learned that the White House was involved along with the DOE in requesting Solyndra to delay announcement of its bankruptcy and layoffs from its plan in October 28, 2010 until November 3, 2010.
Collectively we dawn a deadpan face as the political games played in Washington has jaded us all to expectations far from great.  Is anybody shocked that the White House tried to bury the evidence of the failed Solyndra that it took down the runway as the latest fashionable future in energy?
Americans know how the political game works or should we more aptly suggests doesn’t work for the people. The altruism in Washington to set policy that benefits the public  is a pretense Americans know well.
Retuning to my mafia analogy, we all know that in order to be a part of any corrupt cabal one needs to either be just an unscrupulous person begging membership or a patsy to be used.
Stephen Chu is a renowned physicist that truly believes in green energy and although his left leaning political belief in global warming makes him culpable to conservative criticism, no one seriously views him as corrupt.
Instead this good guy geek was brought into the Chicago political gang and given the job of Secretary of the Department of Energy for two reasons reputation and naivety.  How else does this administration manipulate favoritism to his campaign fundraisers (Kaiser) and make it all seem coincidental?
The worst outrage of the Solyndra story of course is the disputed legality of the loan restructuring that put taxpayers out in the cold as a secured creditor while the private investors went to the head of the line.
Stephen Chu seemed calm under fire when he explained to Congress that when the DOE learned that Solyndra had a serious cash flow problem the government was left with two choices. One pulls the loan and ensures Solyndra falls quickly into bankruptcy where taxpayers would take a bath or restructure the loan. Chu’s argument for the latter involved Solyndra’s half built building that would not become a salable asset unless it was completed.
However, most Americans are rightfully confused that if the reason to not pull the loan was to insure that the taxpayer had asset equity to liquidate if the company went under, then how did it benefit the taxpayers to be made secondary creditors over private investors?
In business there is always the paradoxical choice of what to do with a high volume sales customer that does not pay their bill. Shut them off and you lose those sales while chasing your money in court or keep extending them credit and hope they will adhere to a payment plan and not beat you out of greater debt. However, I know of no such plan that involves handing your receivables over to a third party in which you lose either way if the customer pays or defaults? 
This can only happen in a government managed or should we say mismanaged loan program. We have seen politics mixed with many endeavors such as war strategy and we know it is a toxic mixture. No American is surprised that politics mixed with business not only creates failure, corruption, favoritism, waste, inefficiency and fraud but worse it displays a public disdain.
The Democrats on the Committee shrugged their shoulders that this was not a scandal, but a normal expected outcome of the policy to lend taxpayer dollars to losing causes. The fact that the government threw half a billion dollars on the green energy betting table and it lost was no big deal. The fact that the loan was restructured to make the taxpayer insolvent happens every day.
The idea that Stephen Chu should even be questioned given his impeccable credentials to the Democrats is the only outrage.
Yes, this administration found the perfect patsy in Stephen Chu to kill two birds with one stone, pay back Obama’s fundraising friends and use a green energy company to laud the president’s environmental success story.
However, even though the emperors clothes are now revealing their transparent see through exposure it will be the patsy dressmaker (Chu) that will take the fall not the man gliding on the runway stage as the once Chicago super model that now struts in Washington.

SEXUAL CHARGES IN SHAM OR SHAME

The sexual harassment claims by women are serious running the gamut from stalkers to the casting couch. Many women’s lives have been turned upside-down by the hostile threats posed by unwanted sexual advance to the quid pro quo of sex for career advancement. These legitimate harassment cases brought by women against men and employers should never be taken lightly or minimized for the psychological and emotional effects it can cause a true victim who has been violated.


Indeed there once was a silence to this abuse by a combination of sexism and chauvinism in our social past that helped disguise and excuse indecent proposals. Today however, much like racism it exists but rightfully no longer condoned by social acceptance and no longer widespread. It is hard to find many males that still hold chauvinistic views or would dare express them publically if they do.

Therefore, all women have been freed from not just the miscreant mind of the lone male letch but an old boy network mindset that would snicker and do little to defend the honor of the woman being harassed. When a society knows better it does better and those that fought to bring better harassment and stalking laws to public awareness should be commended.

Yet, like all trail blazing activism when do you accept you have achieved success and stop pulling the rope to create an imbalance in the opposite direction? There is a good argument that our society has changed from being racists and sexist to colorblind and workplace neutered. Why then are there those activists still claiming racism and pushing for new laws? Why are they those still active in claiming sexism and pushing for more laws?

If the goal is to completely wipe out every racist and every sexist male in our society then I charge those activists with dumb naivety. It would be like passing laws to stop poverty, or homelessness. There will always be the fringe element that will violate the right of another for their own exploitive desire and all the laws in the world will not abate their debased character.

If the goal is to be vigilant that we continue on the positive path of liberated respect for one another in society then I call out these activists as fomenting the opposite. Charging innocent people with racism or sexism makes society view the finger pointers as the harassers in a role reversal that actually diminishes real genuine victims. Those that cry out sexism for every off color joke or gesture diminish the gravity of harassment because they equate the imprudent miss-steppers with actual misogynist culprits.

Moreover, the intellectual dishonesty of those that seek anonymity while asserting a charge years after the so-called events of their harassment while not so concerned about trashing the reputation of the accused. The fact that they did not file suit at the time for fear of damaging their reputation or not wanting to create a stir is acceptable as a choice they have right to make but not arbitrary to then un-make and only after the alleged wrongdoer has a public profile.

There are ethics that sometimes get lost when society tries to write laws to protect the more subjective behavior and reaction of human interaction. We know that there are some people that are highly sensitive while others have duck feathered backs and might be unaware that they are even being slighted.

Even If we were to take these women at their word none of what has been alleged rises to the legal definition of harassment or stalking laws. Regarding the charge by Bialek that Cain grabbed and groped her, that is a sexual assault charge not a harassment charge and yet she did nothing about the so-called incident. She claims to have told her boyfriend at the time but without any details? That for me does not pass the smell test.

The ability to judge the veracity between the “he said, she said” finger pointing is as impossible on its own. Therefore, the past history of the accused and the accusers then becomes distilled for cracks in credibility. If more than one accuser surfaces then the accused seems less credible but in this case what is Cain being charged with by these woman?

Is it quid pro quo sexual harassment: no? Is it creating a sexual hostile work environment ; no. Is it sexual assault; possibly yet even the victim (Bialek) and her attorney Allred are not claiming sexual assault.

I find it interesting that if you look back to the era before sexual harassment laws and society’s ingrained chauvinistic days we forget that chivalry was the counterbalance to men’s disrespect of women. Those Sir Walter Raleigh days of gallantry are gone because defending a woman’s honor has been deemed chauvinistic and patronizing.

Yet what father back in those days before the liberation of women did not teach their sons to treat women with respect reminding them that their mother was in fact a woman? Equally, what mother today doesn’t teach her son to exercise extreme caution about making comments that might embroil them in a tainted charge of harassment? We have seen five year old little boys suspended from school because they hugged a female classmate.

Serious sexually assault, serious stalking, and verifiable casting couch evidence must be produced in court before the accuser’s reputation is red-lettered. Yet we all know that the mere accusation leveled against anyone is today sufficient to destroy their reputation forever.

I don’t profess to know the truth anymore than anyone else looking from the outside, in, at these allegations against Herman Cain. What I do know is this; what we were suppose to have learned through the Spanish Inquisition to the Salem Witch hunts was that allegations are not evidence of guilt. That innocence should always be presumed until proven guilty as our standard. But sadly just like being called a devil worshipper or a witch, when charged with being a sexual predator on any level your reputation receives a stain that regardless of innocence never can be wiped clean again.

I think Cain deserves at the very least to have my presumption of innocence to his character remain until evidence not allegation comes forward.

SHOVEL READY DEMOCRATS

We all remember the Watergate scandal and how from the first Washington Post story by Woodward and Bernstein that broke on the front page the country was riveted and immersed in little focus of much else. Watergate’s time in America was akin to a virgin’s morning confession to a naïve group of unmarried Americans that had believed in the fairy tale aspect of the Princess’s wedding but yet still innocent of the adult game.

The 60’s wasn’t a time very different politically then today but the American public was very different. The public was still proud to be god fearing nation and expected morality to live out in everyday endeavors including and perhaps especially in public service.

Watergate shocked the people when the favors game of political bribes, hush and slush monies spilled out of the otherwise locked closet that voters never requested a key to unlock. The 60’s was a grown-up moment for Americans to view politics without the euphoniums and delicate metaphors. Americans finally saw politics in Washington as it really was, a prostitution’s promotion of self interest that had made most lose faith in anything coming out of the beltway brothel.

That combination of voter distrust of Washington corruption and cynicism of the political seasoned candidates wrought America Jimmy Carter in the 1976 campaign as the electorate thought that the pure hearted peanut farmer was one of them. The voters quickly realized that Carter was a mistake.

However, to learn from a mistake one must know specifically where one erred. The election of Barak Obama in 2008 proves what America has yet to learn about the importance of character and how the ideological left has nothing in common with the common American.

In every way and on every issue the Democrats has been the Party of big government solutions, greater government intrusion, and increased government spending, agitating and dividing Americans into economic and social class enemies while being feckless in their diplomatic foreign policy and National Security leadership.

Carter weakened America home and abroad, Clinton solidified our enemies’ belief in our weakness by Mogadishu cowering and cruise missile pot shots. Now Obama has replaced the cruise missile approach with predator drone assassinations and an overall foreign policy strategy that ignores strong ally relationships and rewards those countries rife with anti-American sentiment.

Domestically one might argue that Clinton unlike Carter and Obama had the country on a successful economic road. Yet in business there is an understanding of the difference between short term profitability and long term solvency. The Big government anti-capitalist Democratic Clinton policy of banking reform was a Wall Street boom until the bubble it created burst open at the tail end of the Bush administration.

We have seen the havoc reaped by Democratic policies both in their control of Congress and the White House since the agitate generation of the 1960’s arose to reject the moral restraint and restrictions of their parent’s America.

Since those Watergate days the battle for party popularity created a manipulative dance by both parties to win favor from a socially fractured nation. Freedom began to mean being freed from consequences of immoral behavior. Free from early morning church attendance on Sunday. Free from societal shame regardless of how depraved it descended because no one was victimized because everyone is a victim.

So the Democrats moved further left once the children of that new social morality or “flower power” generation grew up and infiltrated the party. Yet they pretend to be the so-called Clinton centrists Democrats in their quest to disguise and appear less radical to the voting public.

While the Republican Party waltzed away from Reagan by both the father and son of Bush Republicans that moved the party further into the center from the right side of conservatism. Wrongly thinking that by splitting the social baby they would appear more palatable to the indoctrinated amoral face-pierced tattooed offspring of the pot smoking tie-dye jeans 60’s generation that still cling to their anti-establishment protests as a warrior keeps a medal of valor.

However, deep down under the window dressing put up by the two parties there exist a very long standing set of timeless core distinctions that can be traced back to the Hamilton and Jefferson antagonisms.

Democrats have intoned Jefferson but have embraced the Hamiltonian ideology of big centralized government. Republicans have lived Jefferson but have allowed the Democratic Party to paint them as big corporation elitists.

In the area of Washington scandals and corruption Democrats have been allowed to skate away from most of their many sordid affairs by eating their own and claiming them as aberrations. While they continue to walk their Party away from traditional Judeo-Christian morals in the shameless 60’s values of anti-anything-American-established.

While Republicans still faithful to the puritan notion of honor and integrity handle their scandals with a self-flagellating acceptance that their character is flawed and deserves to be placed on the pillory by their Democratic rivals.

Today the obvious evidence of radical take down of America by the ideological left-wing Democrats both in Congress and in the White House is no longer theory that their aim is to ruin capitalism and weaken our reputation abroad because of their disdain for American tradition.

If Americans are a center-right nation politically then why are we expecting an ideological left leaning Party and its presidential candidates to do anything but fail us and the country?

It is time to bury the myth that there exists a yet young unknown Kennedy re-incarnation in the Democratic Party. The Democrats have moved their party so far left that even if a new Kennedy was born he would much more likely run as a Republican. One could easily envision Kennedy beseeching the Occupy Wall Street whiners by saying “ask not what your country can do for you” to a stirring public’s agreement furthered by “ask what you can do for your country” to which most Americans would loudly shout go home and clean up your act.

It is equally time for Americans to bury the Watergate Nixon reputation of the Republican Party that has been the drum- beat for over forty years by Democrats to scare voters away from traditional values.

Today, we have two political parties and two political ideologies that have been described as left versus right, socialists versus capitalists, big versus small government, social justice versus individual rights, religious versus atheistic, and most importantly faithful to the Constitution versus anti-Republic.

Americans need to grow up from the 1960’s social and political protest and recognize what that time in our history really meant. It was then and still is a tantrum by selfish youth wanting what all youth wants; freedom from rules and personal accountability that was infiltrated and directed by a small group of radicals seeking to bring down America’s representative Republic from the inside by communism.

Interesting that Americans today readily accept the notion of radical Islamic sleeper cells in the United States that might cause another mass civilian terror plot but laugh and scoff both then and now that McCarthyism was a right-wing paranoia trip.

However, as the radicals now sit in the established seat of power and continue to fan the flames of anti-American class warfare shouldn’t we hard working Americans see finally the face of the Democratic Party behind their many masks?

Who does the Occupy Wall Street crowd support: Republicans or Democrats? What are the Occupy Wall Street youth advocating: capitalism or communism? What morality is most associated with their beliefs: Judeo-Christian or secular humanism? What are they threatening to do if they don’t get their demand of the rich Wall Street tycoons and bankers being taxed into socialism: peace march or violent destruction? Who do they want to see as America’s president in 2012: a traditional constitutionally loyal President or a Marxists thief of your Bill of Rights?

“Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!”


(Nikita Khrushchev)

“I once said, "We will bury you," and I got into trouble with it. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel. Your own working class will bury you.”

TEA AND SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL

Once again Americans are being manipulated by the liberal media and by politicians into believing that anti-Americanism is American tradition? In the Press's twisted logic the Occupy Wall Street crowd of socialists along with a number of American hate groups are being compared to the Tea Party Movement.  Moreover the Occupy Wall Street socialists are apparently more deserving of sympathy than law abiding Tea Party Movement patriots who have been called everything from racist to terroists.
It has been long charged by conservatives that liberals always want to “blame America first” for all and any ills that affect our Country or the world in general.  Now with Occupy Wall Street Kabuki theater the ultra left has gone further to exposed their true agenda intention for blaming America. Simply; they hate America and all for which she stands.
They hate her capitalism. They hate her Constitution. They hate her flag waving. They hate her Judeo-Christian values. They hate her Bill of Rights except for the rights they want to cherry pick out in order to use to their advantage. They are against the 2nd Amendment wanting to strip guns out of the hands of citizens but they idolize the 1st Amendment that they utilize to demonize America.
The Tea Party Movement conversely LOVES America and has seen the minority of left-wing socialists abetted by corrupt Republicans grow a tyrannical Federal government that has been eating into our individual liberties slowly but steadily for half a century.
The protests of the Tea Party movement have not only been peaceful, respectful, lawful they have been politically successful in changing the discourse in Washington awakening a vast swath of otherwise silent Americans.
I will grant unfortunately that there are millions of Americans not plugged into what goes on nationally or even locally as their heads are buried in their egocentric world of dispassionate ignorance of politics. Most don’t vote and those that do have a wealth of naïve and sometimes childlike reasons for choosing their representatives using the “Eeny-meeny-moe” technique.   
Constantly swinging  the pendulum from left to right because there is a pox on both political parties has given the American people both gridlock inaction on reforms at best and greater government tyranny at worst.
Finally the average American being ignored and disparaged by a snubbing and intrusive federal government decided to wake up and come together to try and wrestle back the power intended to be in their hands per the Constitution.
They realize that the tyranny they were facing was reminiscent of the hold King George III had over the colonies prior to America’s revolution. The first act of notable defiance by the colonists born by the growing despotism of the King’s edicts was the Boston Tea Party. The name was adopted for its analogy to today’s kinglike control of the federal government over State and individual citizen rights.
The intent of the modern day Tea Party Movement is to use the same methods that the two party politics have used against the voter for years, divide and conquer. First, rid the government of as many Democrats and ultra left-wing radical representatives as possible in an election cycle, while equally replacing corrupt Republicans in primary elections with constitutionally loyal candidates. The 2010 election was a success in the House, not so successful in the Senate but widely successful in awakening Americans that change and reform is possible if we use our collective will.
More importantly its membership is not as important as is its growing sympathy throughout the country for its sane rational message of smaller, honest and constitutionally faithful representation.
The Occupy Wall Street protests on the other hand are filled with America “haters” that decry capitalism, private ownership and want to be handed wealth out of marxist's logic that one man’s gain is another man’s right to claim or commonly referred as redistribution of wealth.
Worse however than being a group not organized under a simple ideologically banner of socialism the Occupy Wall Street encampment is riddled with every selfish tantrum of egocentric leftist demand that contains no plan of achievement other than to camp out and scream invectives.
Will they go home when the snow starts falling in the north and head to warmer squatter’s lands to the south or will this group of Soros backed useful idiots turn violent?
Regardless of what becomes of Occupy Wall Street one thing is sure, they don’t and won’t occupy the average American’s sympathy for their hating cause and they won’t grow and attract responsible citizens given their connections to Nazi and Islamic brethren in solidarity.
However, most importantly Americans are not as dumb as we might look at times, as we always clearly see through all the haze of liberal media’s magical distortion of otherwise clear lines between righteousness and just plain wrong.
 To compare the Tea Party Movement in any way to the Occupy Wall Street is as opposite as heads versus tails, right versus wrong, good versus evil, patriotic versus traitorous, law-abiding versus lawful, American lovers versus American haters and God fearing versus devilish atheism.  
Just as every cop is a criminal, and all the sinners saints, as heads is tails just call me Lucifer cause I’m in need of some restraint... Pleased to meet you hope you guessed my name.” (Rolling Stones)

A DISORGANIZED COMMUNITY

The president is out on the campaign trail pretending to instead stump for a jobs plan for America. He has intoned a highly partisan (per usual) teleprompter message meant to rally his base and debase the GOP.

He is not satisfied with just trying to promote his “throw more money away” stimulus spending Jobs Bill that even the Democrats in his own party can’t fully embrace but he must take political shots at the GOP Jobs bill proposal.


The bills that the Republicans have passed in the House that sit DOA on the Senate floor includes lowering the corporate tax rate, repealing Obamacare and Dodd Frank financial reform, streamlining energy exploration permits and placing a moratorium on federal regulations.

Obama’s legislative man on the inside or bouncer of GOP plans is Harry Reid. The re-elected Senate Majority leader from Nevada seems to have the Chicago political way in his blood as he has made a re-election career of blocking Republican legislation and amendments.


This defensive planned interference by Reid’s Senate affords his party leader Obama to play offensive with the opposition by either calling them naysayers to wanting to support police, firefighters and construction workers jobs or curmudgeons for wanting “dirtier air and dirtier water.”

Apparently “dirtier” White House politics is fine with the president that has all but crippled this country’s trust of the Commander and Chief’s veracity on any given subject at any given time.

The bully pulpit has become the taradiddle teleprompter replete with Alinsky rules for radicals no longer even thinly disguised by this president desperation to win a second term.

He spews his invectives against any reasonable alternative to his Marxist ideology condemning Republicans and Tea Party Movement ideas as compassionless and or intellectually inept.

Beyond the president’s over-inflated budget, huge growing debt, ever expanding executive power grabbing his personal ego seems to have become hyper-inflated.

If the president really thinks that beyond his minority Kool-aid dwindling drinking base of unwavering support, he can win over independents and moderates with his attack campaigning bus tour by continuing to bash common sense ideas then he needs a wakeup call.

Wake up Mr. President the 2008 elections are over and you won the Presidency stop campaigning. Wake up Mr. President the 2010 elections are over and your coattails have been snipped into a sports jacket please stop campaigning. Wake up Mr. President the average American does not like to be called names because they disagree with your policies and they know you are still campaigning.

Wake up Mr. President most Americans are glad that there is at least the gridlock in Washington to slow down you and your cabinet of Czars from raiding the treasury to the point of no return for America’s future. Okay now you can campaign.

Your minions have so many varying ideas it will be hard for you to remember their long list of “give-me-for-nothing” while you try and organize their disunity into an Acorn like ballot bully push for votes. Good luck firing up the selfish base laddered with individual agendas that you expect to propel you for another four years in the White House.

Also, you need to remember that as you embrace the retro-hippy crowd (OWS) that echoes a fondly remembered community organizing past, there is a still an invisible siege afoot.
 A waiting quiet, a steely determined group ,
an angst anticipating citizen group , a mainstream majority group that is not holding signs, not defecating on the street, not spitting hatred and not even aware of your bus as it parades into their neighborhoods.


No Mr. President common sense patriots haven’t gone away, we have not given up hope. We see the time get nearer and the lies and propaganda get clearer and clearer that soon, we will answer your alienating American class warfare message with a simple secret ballot casting rebuttal in 2012.

 

I hope your people sleeping on the streets remember to register because this time they will only be able to vote once. Lincoln holds the sear’s message as to your future; “If once you forfeit the confidence of your fellow-citizens, you can never regain their respect and esteem.”

I PAID FOR THE STICK NOW HIT ME HARD!

Obama is the poster boy of Wall Street campaign money receiving 11.8 percent of his 2012 campaign funds from the financial district and 6.9 percent from lawyers which represents a lion’s share of all his contributors.


The word hypocrisy seems exhaustibly overused in light of both Obama and the Democratic Party’s sympathy overtures to the Occupy Wall Street protesters that rail against Wall Street influence.

It seems oxymoronic that these rich capitalists would be bankrolling those that want to over-regulate them, tax them excessively and now backstab them by sympathizing with those that want to shame them for being rich and successful?

Is this what happens to people who are successful in this country? Do they acquire wealth and equally acquire masochist complex about being rich and successful?

By giving money to a Party and a candidate that bites and slaps the hand that feeds the class warfare against them makes the average American perplexed. Why? Why is Wall Street giving money to Obama? Why is Wall Street giving money to the Democratic Party that wishes to bridle their future earnings through socialist’s policies?

Are they so ashamed of how they earned their wealth that they want a public pillory to whip their well fed backsides raw to cleanse their rueful pangs of guilt when they see so many others struggling?

There is a difference between Warren Buffett and the Koch Brothers in the viewing of wealth. Buffet believes in social justice which is fascinating given the fact that he earned his wealth in the Wall Street casino game. He never produced a product but instead invested and traded on the success of American business.

 The Koch Brothers inherited Koch Industries from their patriarch Fred C. Koch who developed a new method for refining heavy oil into gasoline. Koch Industries is an example of an American entrepreneurial success story that produced a highly marketable product.

 Both Buffet and the Koch Brothers have been charitable with their wealth yet the contributions are as different as one’s left hand is to one’s right foot.

Buffet is bankrolling Obama and is fully immersed in the social engineering belief that money and power is to be used to play favorites in redistributing wealth.

Koch Brothers have donated countless monies for fostering entrepreneurial opportunities along with conservative think tanks like The Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institute as well as giving the Tea Party Movement support.

One is showing appreciating for the opportunity they realized through the capitalistic American Dream by giving back that hopeful prospect to other Americans to materialize that same chance at success.

While the other wants to play god on earth believing philanthropy used to change American society is part of the responsibility of wealth achievement.

The political ideological differences of the rich may be as divided as the two party system of American politics yet in this economic climate of class warfare orchestrated by a highly partisan administration why are the wealthy buying mace and self flagellating by continuing to support Obama?

This whole notion of class warfare in America has been orchestrated from the beginning by the Democratic Party, Socialist Party, Unions and other anti-capitalists left-wing groups in their constant speech mantra that blames the haves (rich) success for the have not’s (poor) failure.

The Democratic Party has been indoctrinating the notion of “blame everyone but self” undermining America’s long tradition of rugged independent individual responsibility for years.

The notion of equal justice in which law is the equal playing field of rules for all Americans, has been systematically undermined by Democratic policies. For far too long Democrats have exercised social cronyism or “social justice” by preaching to minorities and low wage earners that the fault lies “in the stars” not in their own individual control.

It is a Marxist tactic to foment anger at capitalism and create a government dependent class (worker) against the (wealthy) class business owner.

It is not remotely similar to Tea Party protests when Van Jones an avowed communist, cynically co-opts American ideals by calling his group the “Return the American Dream” protest a “spirit of Madison” movement. He purposefully perverts American history and expressions for his sophistry knowing the Marxist socialist’s agenda is finally undressed exposed and repugnant to the majority of Americans.

In fact it is the Marxist socialists Democratic government policies that have swamped the American landscape with so many laws, regulations and legal liabilities that today’s entrepreneur cannot bring good ideas to market.

So again why are rich Americans, corporations and Wall Street bankrollers still supporting Democrats and their class warfare agitators? Why are bundlers from Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and countless law firms still contributing to an ideological left that has put a bull’s eye on their backs?

Is this just about political hedge funding in which the game is to stay favorable with whomever Party owns the influence in Washington? Or is it that Corporations already own both political parties and by equally dolling out the money to (Marxist) left and (corrupt) right so they can disguise the otherwise visible puppet strings?

Now more than ever America needs the genuine patriotic spirit of the Tea Party Movement to grow stronger, recruit more participation, be alert and watchful and most importantly stay informed.

Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives. (James Madison)

WE SHOULD FEAR THE MAURADING BAND


The political voices of the left show their true radical agenda and that should shame the Democratic Party voter that still thinks this party resembles anything like the party of John F. Kennedy.

Let’s just take a look at two examples of why conservative and moderate Americans are raising their eyebrows in scorn at socialists leaning politicians that promote ideas dangerous to America’s constitutional freedoms.

Governor of North Carolina Beverly Perdue states that “I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won’t hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover.”

When this was met by a public outrage the liberals all went to her defense claiming she was joking even before the Governor herself claimed it was merely hyperbole to highlight the problem of gridlock.

Well let’s ask ourselves this question. Is the Governor saying that if it were not for those pesky interfering voices called constituency then politicians would be freed to make decisions unilaterally for the good of the people?

Clearly she is suggesting even in jest that the problem isn’t with her Party’s recalcitrant views on cutting spending and continued to promotion of Keynesian economic stimulus but the majority center-right electorate that wants cost cutting and reform.

Does anyone find the suspension of voter’s rights funny? Does anyone think that if there was a constitutional provision to legally do this that Barak Obama who has no respect of our Constitution when he has called it “flawed” would be granting himself another term in office?

Is Governor Perdue unaware that it is the Senate Democrats that are the ones standing in the way of the “will of the people” on the many pieces of legislation that have already passed the Republican House of Representatives?

Her comments are instructive of the anti-American mindset of the radical socialist leaning politicians alive in the Democratic Party. A Party I might add that was sent a message by the electorate in the 2010 elections but continue to this day to ignore and minimize its meaning.

Although a vast majority of Americans would like to see Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders not be voted into their offices by radical districts and far left-wing States we tolerate the minority rights to be represented as much as the majority. North Carolina voters must be having an “Obama-regretful” moment about elected Beverly Perdue as the spokesperson of their State.

In another liberal State Massachusetts we have the Senate run of Elizabeth Warren trying to un-seat Scott Brown in the upcoming 2012 elections. She expresses a sobering upside logic of capitalism through the prism of social justice out of a Saul Alinsky seminar on socialism. Elizabeth Warren campaign explanation of capitalism in HER America;


“You built a factory out there? Good for you. But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police-forces and fire-forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn’t have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory — and hire someone to protect against this — because of the work the rest of us did.


“Now look, you built a factory and it turned into something terrific, or a great idea. God bless — keep a big hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is, you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along.”

Unbelievable, I am almost at a loss to explain how nutty and ridiculous this explanation of free enterprise and its ipso facto taxpayer ownership diatribe passes as lucid, even considering it is lefty logic. Karl Marx might have a problem with Warren’s version of the socialist’s model of productivity and responsibility.

She is out there trying to convince the public that because taxpayers are asked to build a road, (for all to access not just business) that the taxpayer therefore has bought stock in the local business. She goes on further to suggest that taxpayer dollars are used to educate workers? I guess she doesn’t agree with the notion of education for education’s sake?

Worse she moves on to Police and Firefighters being paid by taxpayers to protect (apparently only business interests not the public at large) as another example of taxpayer investment and therefore ownership in the businesses. Saving them from marauding bands of (goons I presume) to seize all their factory possessions. I guess where taxpayers have police and firefighters in farming communities everyone owns everyone else’s farms in Warren’s ditzy world of taxpayer's automatic stockholder status.

This is not worth my explaining to anyone reading this post why this reasoning if you can refer to it as having sense at all, should be counter pointed. Let's just say beyond being an outright theft of someone's else property by a squatter's self-serving pronouncement it bespeaks a bandit's mentality as well.

Isn’t that the kind of extortion talk of the Mafia they used back in organized crime heyday of the 1930’s thru the 60’s of warning business that if they didn’t pay them for protection their businesses could be burglarized or burned to the ground? Warren generously says to self-made entrepreneurs “keep a big hunk of it” meaning their business and its financial reward but give us our hunk because we the owner, the taxpaying owner own you and control you.

To just discount the ranting of this avowed socialists of the Democratic Party Elizabeth Warren as nuttier than a Payday candy bar is to underestimate the applause she received from the audience she was addressing.

We are witnessing a convergence of two strange phenomena’s happening in America today. One is the brazen openness of socialist’s ideas being preached in the public square and no longer confined behind the walls of the theoretical liberal college walls. Two the dumber-down graduates (some might say indoctrinated) lemmings lapping up these socialists public lectures as though they are just political differences of opinion and not attacked as flawed reasoning and anti-American in principles.

We are in a struggle in America that is far bigger than gridlock, corruption and culture class warfare the struggle we are witnessing is an organized creep of growing weeds of socialists infiltration planted long ago in our education system that now can’t disguised itself any longer.

Many of us have seen those seeds of socialism when we were being educated and experienced that the brainwashing got stronger when we raised our own children. Perhaps we saved ourselves from unintellectual mumblings but America has raised too many people infected by this pervasive mind numbing social justice "we all live in a yellow submarine" drivel.

Those that think that only the 2012 elections or the political success of traditional American values will be all that’s needed to wrestle back control of American senses need to think again.

America needs systemic reform to our education both academic and ethic scholarship.
We are not excused from accountability because “everybody else did it” and we are not excused from being ignorant because “it is the popular notion of the day”.
  
Take your schools back, take your children back take your country back because the creeping socialist’s agenda IS THE MAURADING BAND we should fear.
