If a group of robbers came to your house and stole nearly $1000 dollars sometime during the upcoming year would you not call the police, file a report and attempt to prosecute the perpetrators? Of course you would, you’d be very upset at the loss to your personal income, and the imposition to your rights and liberty. What if you discovered that the same robbers came as guests to your house many times and stole $20 dollars each time until after 50 such visits added up as a loss to your personal income of nearly $1000.00. The cost of the theft was not obvious because the impact of the theft was distributed over a long period of time. Well, the later scenario is exactly what the federal government has done in regard to the new taxes coming out of our personal income taxes that nobody is talking about. If you look at your paychecks, you will notice that anywhere from $20 to $40 dollars each week is coming out of your personal income every single week and the total cost to you will be nearly $1000.00 by this time next year. The act of taking the money out of our pay checks is theft. In my case I did not vote for the tax increases and my elected representatives left me hanging out to dry making deals with the thieves behind the scenes. As John Boehner said, “Obamacare is the law of the land.” And Governor John Kasich of Ohio ignored the Healthcare Freedom Amendment that passed a few years back in order to protect his 2016 run for President. A lot of people are behind the force stealing that money from our paychecks and what they are doing is criminal. To understand why, watch this video carefully.
The modern government in America is no different from the bands of pirates who inhabited Jamaica in the city of Port Royal in the late 1600s. They have an insatiable appetite for sex, drugs, and endless theft to satisfy the bottomless pits of their personal treasuries. There isn’t enough money in the world to quell their endless thirsts for looted currency. Back then, Morgan had a letter of marque from the king of England that gave him legal right to harass Spanish and French vessels in the Caribbean region. John Boehner has the same kind of letter from Barack Obama—who thinks he’s king of America. The responsibility for the increases in taxes—which is simply legalized theft—falls on the king, while the looters confiscate more and more wealth from anyone they can get it from without an eye on the end result.
Those of us who pay taxes, those few of us who are now under the 50% minority are being told that we will pay more taxes to support programs we detest. It is being forced upon us through threat of force, and is piracy. The stolen money will go to sin, crime, and detestable activity. It will not go toward altruism even though it has been stolen under the banner of social justice. It is simply stolen by the pirates of government for the end result of further plunder. For those of us who pay most of the taxes, we are now less wealthy just because the calendar year changed from 2012 to 2013. The modern pirates don’t even have to go to the effort to take our money with literal force any longer—they simply write new laws in the modern version of Port Royal called Washington D.C. and force everyone to send the money to their door steps. This year it is the subtle amount of $20 dollar a week. But add that to the nearly $300 a week for other federal taxes, or the hundreds of dollars for Social Security. Heck, it costs almost half as much just for Medicare as all the state taxes in Ohio. The looters have set up a complicated scam that subtly steals from us all bit by bit so gradually that it is hardly noticed. But the total cost is quite extensive when it is considered in its entirety.
I don’t need much out of the government. I don’t need the heath care. I don’t want their retirement plan. I don’t even want their education. I don’t want their regulatory committees; I don’t want their prying eyes and hands on my wife when we fly on an airline. I want them as much out of my life as humanly possible, and I do not wish to be robbed by them for their own pillaging tendencies. I don’t support their reckless spending, their short-sighted vision, and their back room Washington deals. I don’t want to pay them any ransom—“protection money,” for their extortive practices. With the government, like the pirates of the Caribbean you pay the extra $20 dollars a week in taxes, or they take all your possessions and throw you in jail. In that way, they have robbed us all with a letter of marque provided by President Obama and his financial supporters, SEIU, AFL-CIO, FTA, billionaire philanthropists and many other collectivist organizations acting no different from pirates in Port Royal spending money like its going out of style requiring more looting just to live one more day of pillaging.
Port Royal is no longer evident in Jamaica outside of Kingston. There is little evidence of its once great wealth and sinful prosperity. In the same regard, Washington D.C. will someday follow the same path and will see its streets vacant of life and abandoned completely. The mentality of the two cities is the same—they are all pirates who make their livings stealing money from others in order to live. The question is why do we allow it to happen? Why do we allow them to steal money from us in small increments of $20 at a time? Why can’t we add up that a decade of such activity means hundreds and hundreds of dollars of stolen money we are committed to pay each month away from our individual desires? Instead we are told to give toward the collective cause of the pirates and their thirst for plunder—and if we don’t cough up the loot, they will take it by force—and we call this behavior “civilized” or even “free?”
I call it theft by robbers and pirates, and they deserve to be called such, and not honorable representatives of a righteous republic. The robbers are only drunken fools unable to do anything right and should not be allowed to run Washington D.C. like its Port Royal. According to The United States Constitution, we don’t have to. So why do we?
When I speak about the need for a Civil War it is not because I want it, but because bad people are attempting to impose themselves upon my life, and those of the people who are not so vocal about their desire for liberty. I know all too well that many lawyers, judges, and politicians do not believe in the Bible they swore their oaths to, or respect the Constitution they pledge to protect. They are simply scavengers who seek to pillage the lives of individuals of everything they own or desire to possess. I have seen first hand many instances where America’s entire court system is about nothing but generating money for the participants at the expenses of the victims. I gave such an example in Tail of the Dragon, which is based on first hand experience. The court system is only about making money through the clerk of courts for the judges, the lawyers, the bailiffs, the jails, the insurance companies, the legal professors, the mind numb politicians, and nothing else. They seek targets that have broken the law as defined by those same people who have no respect for the American Constitution but serve only the case-law of fellow attorneys. The legal system in America is a racket no different from the organized crime syndicates that formed during the Prohibition Period.
When Jon Hammer was thrown into a Mexican jail for trying to register a rifle at the border, the Mexicans were not interested in justice, or fairness. They were only interested in jailing the young man and attempting to extort money from the ex-Marine’s family. The Mexicans behaved no different from a band of pirates who took over the lives of the innocent and threatened to kill them on behalf of their personal profit. The court system is corrupt beyond repair in Mexico. Nobody cared about the life of Jon Hammer. The President of Mexico allowed the behavior to continue on once the story became public for over 4 months. The criminal underground runs Mexico, and the Jon Hammer case proves it. Both The United States and Mexico showed the world that neither side cared about Jon Hammer or his family—especially when the situation was so obviously unjust. Instead all the parties involved on both sides walked over the issue as though they were egg shells, not daring to step too hard in any one place so not to upset their supplies of money that funnel to them through organized crime.
What’s worse about the whole ordeal is that Mexico appears to be more honest than America. At least the Mexicans don’t attempt to hide their tyrannical intentions behind children or tapestries of “justice” like American courts have attempted to do. President Obama attempted to hide his power grabbing actions of executive orders behind the naive innocence of children, and nobody questioned the obvious evil of the act. Both courts in Mexico and America are corrupt and rotting with scallywags intent to profit off the unfortunate misery of the guiltless. When things go bad in the near future it will be those types of scallywags who attempt to call me “the criminal,” which of course I am not, or won’t be. There comes a time when it is right and honorable to fight back against evil that attempts to hide theft behind righteousness, and that time is coming quick.
We are living in an upside down world, the bad pretend that they are good, and the good are made out to look bad, so a war between those two ideas is immanent. In the context of a normal life, the talk of war might seem extreme, but it is in the desire for peace that the pirates of government loot us all in broad day light with further encroachments’, and out-right injustices are advanced through sheer greed. It is against those feeble minds that we will protect ourselves and in that context, is the reason for the next war that is about to break out. It will also be in the context of the villainy conducted among America’s failing political system and its corrupt courts that the actions of liberty will forever be measured. The sanity of the Constitutional defenders is written down forever and cannot be changed by the looters of social order, who hide their malicious actions behind “safety,” “security,” and “children.” The truth is easy for everyone to see and that truth might waver for a bit when the first shots are fired and real lives find themselves at the cashiers counter–but context will find its place which is the reason for these millions of words. It cannot be said that we did not try a solution of peace. When the lives stack up, nobody can say that we did not try.
As to the source behind Obama’s new gun control laws created by executive order………………..it is all about making more money for an ever-expanding–all-encompassing government.
Among the new spending the president proposed:
• $4 billion for the president’s proposal “to help keep 15,000 cops on the streets in cities and towns across the country.” (That is roughly $266,000 per police officer.)
• $20 million to “give states stronger incentives to make [relevant] data available [for background checks] … “$50 million for this purpose in FY2014”
• “$14 million to help train 14,000 more police officers and other public and private personnel to respond to active shooter situations.”
• “$10 million for the Centers for Disease Control to conduct further research, including investigating the relationship between video games, media images, and violence.”
• $20 million to expand the National Violent Death Reporting System.
• $150 million to “put up to 1,000 new school resource officers and school counselors on the job.”
• “$30 million of one-time grants to states to help their school districts develop and implement emergency management plans.”
• $50 million to help 8,000 schools “create safer and more nurturing school climates.”
• $15 million to “provide ‘Mental Health First Aid’ training for teachers.”
• $40 million for school districts to “work with law enforcement, mental health agencies, and other local organizations to assure students with mental health issues or other behavioral issues are referred to the services they need.”
• $25 million for state-based strategies that support “young people ages 16 to 25 with mental health or substance abuse issues.”
• $25 million to “offer students mental health services for trauma or anxiety, conflict resolution programs, and other school-based violence prevention strategies.”
• $50 million to “train social workers, counselors, psychologists, and other mental health professionals.”
‘One of the grossest things they have ever seen?’ This is what the Morning Joe Team on the Progressive channel MSNBC said in regard to a recent NRA advertisement. Obviously these people don’t remember how poorly George Bush’s children were treated when he was president. But they have conveniently forgotten all about that now. Watch and listen how shallow the minds and memory of these progressives are.
There is no dealing with people like this from the “lean forward” channel. Wasn’t that the campaign slogan for the last Lakota school levy, and Barry Obama’s latest run for President? Progressivism is for these mush minded types, not real Americans. They haven’t a clue as to what the Constitution is about, nor do they care to learn. They wish us all to “lean forward” straight into the same brick wall that all of Europe is hitting. They are the primary example of why America must never give up their guns, because it will be these types of people who will run everything.
They can’t even remember the Bush Presidency which was only 5 years ago.
President Obama’s press conference over the debt ceiling and proposed gun control measures on January 14, 2013 was so worthless that I won’t even waste my time discussing it here. A response to his claims has already been refuted, dissected, and railed against on these pages and many others in copious quantities. Rather, I would like to refer you dear reader to the video below, which is a bit long, but is one of the better interviews that John Stossel gave while promoting his book No They Can’t which is quite good. Stossel’s book cuts to the chase in a way only an award-winning journalist of many years can in articulating the fundamental problem of any government could do—that politicians wish to rule over others as a primary concern—they are constantly on the hunt for new measures to use in order to rule over others—and are universally prone to manipulate the law in any fashion to advance their offensive against those they wish to rule. Stossel concludes that government under any condition is not emotionally equipped to achieve anything close to their intended proposals, and almost every time they involve themselves in anything, they bungle it up. So the more government there is, the more screwed up a society is. Stossel makes the argument clear in his book, which is discussed in great detail in the interview below. I would suggest a full viewing of the clip provided:
Stossel’s conclusions remind me of a book I read years ago that I used to carry around like it was a Bible. It was published in the late 1980s called A World of Ideas by Bill Moyers. The book was written at the height of Moyers PBS career as a reporter on the heels of his excellent book The Power of Myth which is still one of my all time favorites. These books were written when progressivism and communism were still undercover and functioning behind layers of deceit within the Democratic Party—before even the Clinton Administration came into power—so I saw no danger in AWorld of Ideas, only scholarly information that was quite good at the time without the political spin that might be seen today. In that classic book Moyers basic thesis was that the quality of politicians in our Republic are bad because there isn’t any clear incentive for good people to enter the world of politics.
This is true for the most part. I know a few people who are good and enter politics, but for the most part politicians are low life scum bags who secretly cry out for attention. The people of quality that I know are either rich and chose to control politics with donations, or they hide in their garages and hire accountants to work around all the stupid laws that politicians come up with. Those people don’t enter politics, of which I fall into a similar category. I have had countless requests from many community members to run for local trustee positions that are coming open, or school board titles—and during every one of those requests I think of that old Moyer’s book A World of Ideas, especially the chapter interviewing Tom Wolfe—one of my favorite writers—specifically The Right Stuff novel. A republic of any kind is only as good as the people who run it, and ideally the best people of any society should run for office, not the worst.
When I think of political office and imagine myself in one, I would likely go on violent rampages the first time the bureaucrats did a role call. It drives me crazy every time I see a meeting of any kind where they do a roll call. Every political meeting I’ve ever attended is so ghastly ineffective that I find them appalling. I don’t function well with rules or meetings that go on longer than 20 minutes, because anything longer is or more complex is to fulfill the inner whims of some stuffy politician hiding their incompetency behind the complexity. This is one of the primary reasons that intelligent people avoid politics, because they simply don’t want to deal with stupid people. But if only stupid people run for office, then the people managing all the tax money are stupid people, which is the case of modern politics in America. Most of the people who run for office would fail in the private sector. They would not be invited to charity events and treated like a big wig around town otherwise, so they run for an office to gain prestige. They are not interested in committing their years of wisdom to an elected office, because often they have no wisdom to speak of.
I once had a friend who was a former Penthouse model and was married to a big time strip mall developer around the I-275 loop. She was the classic trophy wife and her 60 year-old husband knew it. He didn’t care that people thought she was a trophy wife—all that mattered to him was that his money was able to buy a 26 year-old-wife who was loyal to him who he could show off at social events. She was from Sweden and was fascinated by politics at the time even though she was a very early version of a libertarian by nature. I was baffled when she expressed to me her desire to meet Mayor Tillery at a fundraiser event that her husband was conducting. I asked her why, because he was a Democrat—had bad breath like every other man and was an astonishingly average human being. This woman was the kind of female who could attract any man in the world that she wanted, but she found herself drawn to “powerful” people wither they were literally powerful like her husband was, or figuratively powerful like Mayor Tillery was in Cincinnati politics. It was people like her who feed the egos of politicians like Tillery and made them feel as though the work they are doing is important.
The same types of women swoon over President Obama and make like-minded politicians believe that they are doing important work, because they have a title that carries prestige in our society. Because they are in politics, they have a celebrity status that exhumes power, even though their minds may be insufficiently developed toward leadership. Smart people like the model’s husband who might not otherwise be able to attract such a woman with their looks become powerful through enterprise so that they can buy themselves such a woman. But stupid people who desire the same kind of ability are lured into politics so that they can also attract those types of personalities. The incompetent person who fears the private sector has learned that by giving away tax money to a lot of people, that they can purchase reelections for themselves and have access to the kind of men and women who clamor for powerful people—even if that power is only by title. In no other form of endeavor could an average person like Mayor Tillery have women like my old Penthouse friend excited to shake their hand—but in politics.
We’re not talking about sex when it is said that politicians scurry for office to have access to women like the former Penthouse model. This sometimes happens of course, but the end result is not a sexual one, it’s simply an attention grabber. The small-minded person wishes to be addressed as sir, or madame, or by an official title that projects social importance. These social butterflies wish to be treated with respect, even though they often don’t deserve it. They like to see beautiful women and men standing behind the rope lines fighting to shake their hands or to get an autograph—and that is the root of the whole problem.
Stossel is not wrong or reckless when he says that government can’t do anything right—because they can’t. Government can’t because they are a group of people who desire attention before anything, and President Obama is the classic case of such an attention starved human being—who might otherwise struggle to put together two dimes if he were not in public office. Obama knows it, which is one of the reasons he supports socialism, and other progressive causes—and nurtures a deep hatred for the rich. Obama desires to see the rich bow at his feat by using his perceived power to conquer them into submission so they are in awe of his power. He enjoys knowing that the trophy wives of his political rivals seek out to shake his hand against their protests, because those young ladies are drawn to the power of the politicians—the tribal leaders of their community. Women look at Obama the way the Penthouse model looked at Mayor Tillery in Cincinnati, with respect and wonder. But these emotions are left over remnants of the human beings evolution from hunter and gather tribes to the perceived human sacrifice and altruism of the agricultural based city-states. Intelligent people have outgrown the need for “tribal leaders” or “politicians.” Stupid people are still in that pre-evolution period of yesterday—they are always trying to figure out who their “clan leader” is. Like Stossel said in his book, it is the yearning for somebody else to take responsibility that leaves the good people on the outside of politics and the bad people inside—because that is where the fans are. Like the Nickelback song states, everyone wants to be a Rock Star, but not everyone has the talent to be. Others who are qualified don’t even have the desire to trade in their privacy for the constant bombardment of fans that comes with such social roles. The politician in American society can be a Rock Star with just a simple election, and that is the real problem. They get the title without having the quality of mind to back it, which is why government can’t do anything right under any circumstance. John Stossel is 100% right that when it comes to government—NO THEY CAN’T! And they never will because the mind of everyone involved is faulty.
Much of the time it is my wife who does all the nice things for the family, so she is seldom surprised by anybody doing something nice for her. But this year was different. We’ve always been a traditional family where she maintained the home and I maintained work relationships, so we didn’t have the modern benefit of a dual income household to just throw money at our whims. That benefit is something that we have both vehemently rejected out of dedication to providing for our children, and now grandchildren a constant loving female presence in their lives which far outweighs any monetary value.
I have been called a sexist my entire life because of my almost Amish-like adherence to traditional family values. My wife has been called far worse because she has so obviously rejected the feminist movement of independence from men. In our marriage which is coming up on a quarter century now, our household runs like many did in America during 1920 through 1950. I treat her respectfully, she participates in politics equally, and she controls all our family income. She cooks, cleans–is the family psychologist, maintains all the relationships with the extended family—her job is a difficult, thankless one. There is no prestige for the American woman who dedicates herself as a housewife and in my mind there is no job more important in the entire world. My wife didn’t have a career, when our children needed to be homeschooled. When my kids were little, my wife was a room mother at their school, and the teachers turned against her when during the fourth grade consensus emerged that all the little girls of that age needed to learn how to put a condom on a fake penis as part of sex education. We of course declined to sign the permission form and the teachers retaliated. Soon the administrators learned through the teacher’s lounge that my wife was “one of those women,” one of those “trouble makers,” so they made it difficult for her to even pick my kids up from school, because my kids did not ride the school bus. (Yes, my kids were too good to ride the school bus with the other kids. My wife drove them to and from school every single day of their schooling lives.) My wife had resisted a progressive platform so the school circled the wagons to push her out. We responded by pulling our kids out of the school. We were able to pull the trigger when it was needed due to political pressure in the school district of Mason many years ago because my wife did not have a career—a commitment to a business interest outside of our family home. If I had a quarter for all the times family and friends told us that we were wrong in our approach to raising our children, we’d be millionaires rolling in rooms full of those quarters. Much of that advice we were given by well-intentioned people had its source with daytime television and talk shows like Opera who we now know was intensely committed to the spread of progressive ideas. Their advice was wrong even though the masses seemed all to agree on those feminist statements. It has never been easy because the rest of society was going in a noticeably different direction and we were openly rebelling against the progressive political attack against American tradition. For a woman to stay home and care for her family in a traditional manner from 1990 to 2010 seemed to be the vilest insult against progressivism, judging by the insults that came in our direction. So the older we have grown, the more flagrant we have flaunted our position, especially once we learned the source of the advice.
As discussed at this site in great detail modern progressivism is all about destroying the American version of family, so it should come as no surprise that children share authority between their government schools and their parents which leads to much of the misguided rebellion many young people cast against their parents. It is also no surprise that divorce rates are so high because both spouses are dedicated to goals outside the family unit, and women have been told they must be equal to men in the workplace. The progressive strategy has been to remove the heart of the family—women and demean them into pursuing male-like career goals—which are empty social acceptance roles that offer very little real substance. The goal of this aimless existence is to put the faith Americans used to commit to individual family strength and instead invest into it faith towards government. In my traditional view, American women are the government; they are the only government that matters. They rule America’s households and in our family, nothing happens without the approval of my wife. She even has legislative power over every oil change I conduct on our various vehicles. I don’t buy anything without her approval, which is how it should be.
On the other side of the coin, for over 20 years now I have had to strive to make enough family income to compensate for two college educated adults because that’s what it costs to get through modern life. Most of the time I pull off that task with extra revenue generating activity like writing books, designing t-shirts, or other types of creative enterprise. In my younger days I worked various part-time jobs to pay the bills and sometimes rode a bicycle everywhere as we went for years with only one car that my wife needed to use for driving the kids to school. At one point I rode 12 miles one way to work every day for over 1 year on a first shift job and worked a second job on the way home that helped divide up the return mileage to something less exhausting. I’d peddle the remaining 6 miles home in the rain, snow, and extreme heat at around midnight and would start the whole thing again at 5 AM the next day. I never missed work, or got sick, because I couldn’t afford to. Sometimes the money has been easy, sometimes it was very hard, but always we have managed to keep my wife as the hub of the family and there is no government that supersedes her. I have always put my wife on a pedestal because that is where women deserve to be. They are not equal to men, they are bigger, better, and sweeter—and deserve to be cared for with love and understanding.
This brings us back to Christmas, for the first time in our lives, my wife wanted a vacation with me that involved actual time spent together—not on a tour bus through Europe, or on a Gondola in Venice being pushed around the canals by a heavily fragranced Italian man who looks like he’d rather be making meat balls. She wanted me to spend “time” with her—not writing books, not working on politics, not practicing bullwhips, or even back-woods hiking. She wanted to spend time with me, and since she loves Star Wars, there was no better way to spend that time than with an MMO dedicated to Star Wars that requires thousands of hours of partnership. But in order to play an MMO with another person, two computers are needed, and that cost is typically prohibitive for such a luxury item.
The gift was more symbolic than fiscal because it was a commitment to time spent rather than a dollar value—although to arrive at that moment it did require a significant financial investment. The computers had to be powerful because we know family members who have tried to play The Old Republic on a single core processor and fried their video cards from the excessive heat generated, even with the graphics turned all the way down. Because we both love Star Wars we wanted to play the game with full graphics resolution—(which are fabulous by the way), and we still wanted computing power to spare. So my son-in-law and I overdid all the specs and built the computers seen in the video above. My wife didn’t think it was possible because a few months earlier we had spoken to a Best Buy consultant about the amount of money it would take to buy computers that would play the game the way we wanted to play it, and his response was frustrating. He gave us a cost of nearly $4000 for two computers. Frustrated because we still needed a new roof, a dishwasher, and a number of other important daily items, we put it on the very back burner to revisit a few years down the road.
Over this past weekend my wife pointed out to me that we have now played The Old Republic for 20 straight days and we are only just getting started. Our average playing time is 5 to 8 hours per session. Saturday we played the game for 18 hours straight—no interruptions. My kids are all playing the game and my son-in-law who built those computers built one just like them for my one of my daughters while he beefed up his to match the specs. We have all played together and we have been playing with extended family members from out-of-state and it is everything that we hoped it would be. When my wife saw that she had unlimited computing power it wasn’t because of the pretty lights or status of having a new expensive gift. It was in being able to spend time with the people she loves in a game environment that she adores. The computers are simply a means to get there, and in this case, the powerful machines are designed to operate without limitations that prohibit such an experience.
The first thing that people reading this will ask is how can we afford to spend so much time playing a game? Well, in her case, she has the time because she is not in service to any institution outside our family. In my case, I have worked hard to get out ahead enough to buy myself the time to play the game by releasing a new book that is out making money and freeing up my personal time, so in that way, I have afforded myself the ability to give my wife more of my time which is all she really wanted for Christmas. The look on her face is as authentic as it gets and I offer the rare look behind the curtain of my family so that others can see the reality behind the rhetoric that often surrounds me.
Many of my readers and friends here have wanted to see pictures of my new grandson, and they are curious as to what daily life is like within my family. We are a close family because my wife has dedicated her life to making it so, and she deserves a lot of credit for that. It can be seen clearly in videos like the one shown above. The tickets she received at the beginning of the clip were symbolic of the kind of vacation that we have been experiencing for the last 20 days. It took her a long time to put all the elements together to figure out what was happening, but once she did, she was extremely happy, which earned for me the worth of the whole enterprise. She has taken a lot of flack for being a full-time housewife over the years, and she has patiently put up with most of the slander that has been thrown her way which sometimes gets compounded when money is tight. We know that most families cannot do as we have done, because these days so many women are embedded in the economy that if they all pulled out to become full-time mothers our national unemployment rate would jump up to 30 to 40% instantly. Many women also would be lost as to their roles as central family beacons, because there is a lot of responsibility in that job, and they have been taught not to take that responsibility. When things go bad, there is nobody but one person to point at and blame. If a child goes bad, the mother often will blame herself, and many women hide from this responsibility behind their careers, and that will not change over night. But most women deep down inside know that no matter how much money they earn, it cannot replace the impact of their love and attention for their families. Kids who have such busy mothers are easy to spot in a crowd, and these days most of our society is functioning from a hunger for their mother’s attention that they never received as children. The public schools are not adequate replacements, and mothers who make such decisions of putting career in front of motherhood are fools.
Progressives have attempted to change human behavior and they have failed. Anyone who defends those failures is an idiot, and I know a lot of them. Some people are so far into building their lives around that idioticrity that they will lash out at people like me by calling me a sexist, and calling my clothing “wife beater” attire as they did in my video A Whip Trick to Save America where I wore an Under Armor muscle shirt that was labeled by my feminist political critics in such a fashion. Those people are wrong, and have built their entire lives around being wrong. Many of the names progressive women have called my sweet wife over the years, and myself really reflect their personal feelings of guilt. I know it, she knows it, and they know it. My kids have witnessed it, everyone knows what the motives are behind the actions, and after all of that I continue to believe more and more, that a child needs a mother to be ever-present, and a family needs a string of such women to be strong otherwise failure is assured and the family structure will break down in the absence of such personalities.
The sacrifice to have a strong family by allowing the women of that family to serve no entity but their families is that money is harder to come by. But it’s worth it for those few times when enough money is made that quality time with loved ones becomes possible. In the case of the Christmas computer gifts it is not the machinery or hardware, it’s the time that playing the game will giver her with me, her children, her nieces and nephews, sisters and even parents that are scattered all over the Earth. The gift she received was time with the people she cares about, and that is the a gift that extends beyond conventional value, and is the reason for her delight on that memorable Christmas morning that had been a long time and coming—which she waited patiently to see.
I received from a good friend and loyal reader here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom a great gift—one of the only things that I truly love in the world—a new book. And this particular book is from one of my favorite authors and is about one of my favorite Founding Fathers. The book is called The Jefferson Lies by David Barton and seeks to set the record straight about Thomas Jefferson as progressive secularists have attempted to destroy his good name in order to advance their diabolical causes. The book was ironic because it represented a kind of book end to a string of announcements that had their source in one man—Glenn Beck who is proving to be one of America’s new Founding Fathers by creating the means to rediscover what made us so great in the first place. If not for Glenn Beck the new book I received about Thomas Jefferson would not have been possible—because it is Beck who has given voice to scholars like David Barton who would have otherwise been whisked away into a corner of intelligentsia and subdued. If not for the efforts of Glenn Beck’s media empires, fueled by the book publishing industry and a society starving for intelligent material, people like David Barton wouldn’t have a voice.
Much of the trouble in America today can be blamed on progressives. The world of debt, of broken marriages, of childhood misery, of aborted babies, of a stupid grown-up electorate more interested in sports scores than who they will vote for in the next election, of kids walking around aimlessly with their pants down around their knees in public wondering why nobody wants to hire them for a job. Most every problem in our modern society is the fault of secular, tampering, small-minded, progressives like Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Teddy Roosevelt, Lyndon Johnston and a whole slew of other like-minded fools who have attempted to socially engineer mankind with their infantile foolishness driven by insecure minds not completely sane. One of the reasons secular progressives have attempted to diminish the work of people like Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, George Washington, and one of my all time favorites—Ben Franklin is because the modern man of progressive thought is but a boot heel philosophically to those classic Founding Fathers. Presidents like Thomas Jefferson must be defamed so that presidents like Woodrow Wilson can look equal. The progressive, who is in charge of every public school in America knows that the way to make themselves look good is bring everyone else down—which is why the world around us is filled with so many stupid people. (I mean I was at the movies the other day and I think the collective intelligence of the people around me might have been able to power a pocket calculator. They all looked like they voted for Obama. One kid was walking with his girlfriend and literally couldn’t carry their popcorn into the movie theater because his pants were pulled down so far that he had to hold them with one hand because his other was holding his girlfriend’s. The girlfriend had to carry the popcorn and pop. The boy probably had a brain, and he might otherwise have been a promising young man of some merit, but I could take one look at him and tell that he was probably raised off government assistance, that he came from a fatherless household, that he probably ran with a group of wanna’ be thugs practicing gang behavior as kittens practice fighting with a ball of yarn—to prove their prowess. The boy was a victim of secular progressivism and their social experiments that have gone worse than a Frankenstein mad scientist experiment.)
As I held the new Barton book in my hand I thought of the spot that I had sat in over a decade ago when I took my family to Monticello—Jefferson’s very innovative home. I sat where Jefferson did as he wrote his letters and looked out the same windows that he did the day that he died on July 4th, the same exact day as his one time political rival John Adams. The two men wrote each other furiously during the closing days of their lives, and July 4th meant something special that nearly defied death. Both men separated by miles of carriage driven roads through an endless wilderness pushed their minds to see one more July 4th in 1826. In fact, they died within 5 hours of one another, no phone lines, no television, just remote wilderness and a mutual love and respect for knowledge and the founding of America. Jefferson was a smart man overflowing with self-driven ambition. He was the result of his many thousands of books. What he put into his mind came out as a direct result to the quality he had invested. He read books ranging from Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations to Alexander O. Exqemelin’s The Buccaneers of America(One of my all time favorites first published in 1678—Oh what I would give to have an original copy of that book in my personal library!) Like Jefferson my life would be meaningless without books. They are the blood that pumps through my veins and that will always be the case. I simply love to read them, and I love to be in their company whether it be a private library or a public one. I love the presence of knowledge, thought, and enterprise. I have often spoke of my disgust that the Library in Alexandria, Egypt was destroyed by the mob. CLICK HERE TO REVIEW. Progressives like all the parasites of the past know that the way to control the masses is to make them too ignorant to think for themselves—so that those same masses will always clamor for a leader—provided by the modern progressive politician. The mentality is the same whether the period of time is the sacking of Rome, or the modern push for same-sex marriage as a priority over the national debt. The secular progressive seeks destruction of thought to advance their sinister plots.
But the same man who made indirectly the new David Barton book about Jefferson possible had just spent a week explaining his new massive project—The American Dream Labs which is a fantasy right out of the pages of anything Thomas Jefferson or Ben Franklin could have ever hoped for in America. Glenn Beck is restoring to our modern times a love of knowledge and innovation that founded the nation, and he is doing it beyond the reach of secular progressives. Beck is achieving a kind of critical mass that George Soros and all his billions couldn’t stop, because in the “rock, paper, scissors” game of politics, intelligence always crushes stupidity and progressives like Soros have been crushed by a reawakening of the human spirit. Glenn Beck simply refused to back down, and he is about to erupt with a creative energy driven by the same kind of restless force that drove Thomas Jefferson. The results of this awakening unfortunately won’t be measured for a decade or two, but it will occur now that Beck has started the process. The results of today are a direct result of progressive policies started in the 1990’s. The conservative revival of Beck, Barton and those like them won’t be truly felt until around 2025 or 2030. It takes a long time to emerge, but it starts in arts and entertainment–the rest of the culture will follow later.
Beck shares with me it appears a love of the theoretical city/amusement park Epcot Center. Walt Disney, like Beck was committed in his day to the same kinds of thoughts and feelings that drove the Founding Fathers, which is why there are such strong themes referencing them in Disney World. CLICK HERE FOR REVIEW. Every city in America should take notes from Disney’s Epcot Center and form their infrastructure around those concepts. But none do, instead they allow themselves to be shaped by corrupt politicians who try to scrape enough off the top to buy a new condo for themselves. Modern cities are shaped by incomplete people. So Glenn Beck is planning to build his own city called Independence, U.S.A. at a cost of about $2 billion dollars. Click the link below to see all the video of Beck explaining the concept complete with drawings and further commentary. Most important to me is that Beck is going to feature a library in the center of his city that will be available to teach politicians all over the country how they are supposed to govern based on wisdom, not diabolical greed. I am extremely excited about Glenn Beck’s American Dream Labs. He is attempting to do what Walt Disney never could, and Ayn Rand only thought about in the book Atlas Shrugged—he is building a Galt’s Gulch in plain sight—in the midst’s of secular progressive political control.
The book I received as a gift on January 12, 2013 from one of my dear Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom readers represents this slight shift in embracing knowledge over political ideology that has helped feed the modern empire of secular progressivism. The book is a an early product of Glenn Beck’s American Dream Labs and I cherish the very pages contained within it like a lost treasure found after thousands of years of being buried in the sand. All books have value, but some have more value than others, and anything by David Barton is a treasure trove of wealth and knowledge. I am so thankful to have such a book in my hands. Upon reading through it I am reminded of the rooms of Monticello which was an early version of Jefferson’s kind of American Dream Lab, and found it easy to understand why Jefferson answered his own White House door in his slippers and bed robe, and didn’t think enough of the presidency to even put the title on his tomb stone. That is the kind of man who founded America, and that is the kind of man who I admire. That is the kind of human being that Glenn Beck’s American Dream Labs will be committed to producing in The United States and that excites me greatly. It is my hope that my grandson can go to the movies with his future wife and take note that all the young men there can carry the popcorn for their girl friends while holding her hand with the other. The young men will be able to perform the task because they’ll have their pants pulled up around their waist and properly fastened where they belong, and not down around their knees like the messed up kids from the early 2010’s who had been virtually destroyed mentally by secular progressivism and left to root in the abyss of cataclysm.
One of the darkest days in my recent memory was when all the push back from this activity came to pass. The unions organized a kind of community boycott against me, Judge Napolitano had his show Freedom Watch canceled on the Fox Business Channel–allegedly because of his constant support of Ron Paul for President—and Doc Thompson was fired from WLW Radio while on a honeymoon with his wife Yuna. All this news came within about 5 days of each other and I had the impression that there was an all out assault on the kind of reforms I was fighting for, so I bunkered down which led to my famous latté sipping prostitute comments that made so much news around Cincinnati. I didn’t care if it made people angry or even hurt their feelings. It was time to change tactics because my friend was being forced to leave his job and I felt responsible for it. Scott Sloan at WLW tried to assure me that I didn’t cause Doc to lose his job at that particular Clear Channel station but I had been around the block enough to know that politics behind the scenes had worked against Thompson and it was because he was a good guy not just behind the microphone—but in real life—that contributed to his termination. I felt responsible because I helped fuel that trait with this blog site, (many of those interviews can be found here with an easy Google search). Too many times over the years I have seen “good guys” punished in some form or another for being too good—for NOT running around on their wives, for NOT drinking enough at company parties, for NOT having a series of personal failures such as gambling addictions, eating disorders, or being chain smokers. The people who run the world—at least those who have up to this point—like to cozy up with people who exhibit personal failure, because it makes them feel less guilty about their own wrecked lives. Doc, it was clear to me, was a good person trying to fit in with a group who thought he was way too clean behind the ears, and it cost him his job, at least that’s my take on the whole ordeal.
Logic told me that I had a book called Tail of the Dragon coming out—that I should play it safe and keep my mouth shut—like everyone else, because it would be good for me, my sales and my writing endeavors in the future. But tactically, experience told me that a line in the sand needed to be drawn—so I said what I did to respond to all the issues occurring at the same time and for the good, the bad, and the ugly it was time to slug it out and not tap dance through the issues. I sided with Doc Thompson even if it meant that he would be a street vender selling hot dogs at baseball games and would never get a broadcasting opportunity again. When I meet good people, I do not betray them for any measure of personal advancement—politically, fiscally, or amorously. I never have, and I never will even if it costs me a great deal up front. Good people are so rare, that they are much more valuable than all the riches of the world when you meet them, and Doc is one of those people.
Doc went on to Detroit to work for a CBS station and he had success, only not long after hiring him producers announced they planned to convert their talk station into a sports network with an ESPN type spin on their broadcasting, so again, at the start of 2013, Doc appeared to be out of a job. That is until Doc Thompson’s friend Glenn Beck offered him a chance of a lifetime with The Blaze Radio Network hosting a morning show nationally from 6 AM till 9 AM right before Glenn’s famous radio show that has a footprint of over 10 million listeners. This means that Doc will be heard all over the nation on iHeart Radio with a Blaze Channel that is setting the broadcasting standard for the future. Doc Thompson finally gets the opportunity to be the good person that he is under the business umbrella of Glenn Beck who is equally committed to being a “good man,” in all phases of being human.
The news for me that Doc was not just doing another syndication deal like so many other radio shock jocks currently do all over the nation, is extremely exciting. There are plenty of Sean Hannitys, and Howard Sterns these days, and the world doesn’t really need one more. They are part of the established order as it has been, not as it will be—and so far, Glenn Beck is a media personality who is shaping the world of tomorrow with the kind of ambition that eluded Nikola Tesla’s great fight with Thomas Edison. The difference between Edison’s version of electric power and Tesla’s was not one of superiority, it was because J.P. Morgan backed Edison and wanted to control electricity—so Tesla was bought out forcefully and Edison prevailed shaping the way electricity is generated and delivered to this very day. In the case of Glenn Beck, the situation is reversed. The money is behind the better man and it has allowed people like Beck to hire good people like Doc Thompson to become the new standard in radio broadcasting.
Walter Cronkite made his name as a newsman because he was there when the television was invented. Bill O’Reilly became the dominate newsman when cable overtook broadcast television years later as a reliable news source. Both men were there at the start of major technical revolutions and were able to use their skills specific to those innovations to usher in a new age. Doc Thompson will become that new standard that has not yet been heard on any broadcast, because another technological revolution is emerging around internet distributorship percolating outside of FCC regulation, and this will ironically allow good people like Doc Thompson to dominate that new age. This time Doc will not be fired for being a good person, for not making enough “fart” jokes on the air, or spending airtime talking about the voluptuous attributes of women. Doc will succeed because his new boss is Glenn Beck—a man who honors the honorable, and is committed to a goodness that has left Americans vacant. Doc Thompson will become the new standard in broadcasting in 2013 and it all starts on January 21st on The Blaze Radio Network every morning with an emerging media empire driven by Beck that is committed to not just making money—which it is–but in the manufacture of “goodness” which ironically is a new concept in our media driven culture. That is why Doc Thompson is one of the few types of personalities who could fill that growing demand. Being a “good guy” is not something that can be faked when it’s required to come from a person 24 hours a day 7 days a week. In the old days, newsmen and actors could “pretend” to be good people while they were on the set, or conducting an interview. These days, with the growth of the internet and instant access to information at all times of the day, a radio personality like Doc Thompson must go beyond the traditional broadcasting criteria—the broadcaster must actually be “good” otherwise people won’t listen, because they have been burnt before with deception, and they won’t invest their time in a puppet show as they did in the early days of media. In this new age, Doc Thompson is the whole package, and the world is about to learn what I already know, that The Blaze Radio Network just secured their future in history with the announcement that Doc Thompson will be their new morning man who will send all the competition reeling. Being “good” can’t be faked, it has to be sincere, and Doc Thompson is as sincere of a person as I have ever met in journalism, entertainment, or as an activist. If a pile of gold and friendship with Doc Thompson were set before me, I would pick Thompson, because that friendship is worth more than the gold. This is why The Blaze Radio Network will explode as the next generation in broadcasting, and I am very happy to see it happen. It couldn’t have happened to a better guy.
The fighters in this new way of thinking are standing up for what’s good, for the values we all celebrate in films like It’s a Wonderful Life. Anything less, just isn’t acceptable and for me, I expect those values every day of the year…………………..not just during Christmas.
For all the reasons that Lee Wong is now president of the West Chester Trustees, local politics is at best dysfunctional beyond repair with the same old faces. Only Catherine Stoker knows her true motives, but it appears that during an election year where Lee and Cathy’s seats are both up for re-election, Cathy—who has been a trustee for West Chester since 1994 and represents every brand of big government intrusion into business interests, private residents, and is a tremendous supporter of the public education black hole school funding that currently exists is dealing her friend a bad hand of cards. Cathy and Lee have a great relationship and work well together for their own collective oriented agenda, but politics is…………….well……………politics. For an example CLICK HERE to see video and commentary on the sidewalk debacle that took place in Becket Ridge by Lee and Cathy.
If anyone has ever seen Lee Wong conduct a meeting, it is obvious that he struggles to keep everything organized, so it appears that Cathy is throwing her friend under the bus by allowing him to draw all the fire that is coming from the West Chester Tea Party’s commitment to fiscal responsibility—which is proving challenging. Cathy’s years of experience knows that whoever is president will take most of the fire as they are required to provide frequent quotes to the press—and this will be politically difficult for the kind of person that Lee is.
I know of two people who are thinking seriously of making runs for the trustee seats of Cathy and Lee, and they stand a great chance of removing those two progressive minded politicians. Cathy had arranged with Lee in much the same way they worked out the issue of the side-walk in Beckett Ridge–that he would become president and she would be vice-president because they hold a 2 to 1 vote over the third trustee George Lang recently re-elected during 2011. In Cathy’s case, it is best for her to appear she is not a power-hungry name plate goddess by relinquishing some of her power to Lee—while the real motive might be to diffuse political attention away from herself to Lee, so that her seat gets most of the progressive votes over the two conservative challengers who are planning to run against her.
It is interesting that there is never any explorations in the local papers about this kind of behavior. Reporters have allowed themselves to be lap-dogs to people like Cathy, Lee, and Joan. Reporters enjoy powerful people with name-plates because it makes for easy reporting, so seldom is any substantive investigation done into the motives of politicians when positions of power changes. But in Lee’s case, it would seem obvious given his political handicaps what Cathy is up to. Voter apathy is how Cathy has managed to keep her seat and maintain invites to all the prestigious West Chester social occasions for over 20 years. Often, that is the real motive behind these types of politicians; they enjoy the social occasions and the feelings of importance that they offer. They are always seeking ways to exploit voter apathy—such as changing around the names to make positive adjustments appear to be happening, to give the appearance of democracy in action. But the reality is quite something else.
It will be up to voters to prove Cathy politically wise, or not during the election of 2013. In the past such decisions have worked, but that was before people started to wake up, as they are beginning to do now. The question will be whether or not voters will give new people a chance to rock the foundations of West Chester politics with much more competent minds—instead of the scheming that goes on which centers completely on self-preservation using politics to provide the illusion of personal value in the context of social occasion. The management of a district or a community is not about hand-shaking, charity events, or touchy-feely progressivism. It’s about making hard decisions and care-taking the community’s tax money with more than lip service—it requires a surgical approach to all things financial, and a healthy disdain for the power of a name plate.
CNN is clearly using Piers Morgan to show how radical the pro Second Amendment crowd is by first inviting on Ted Nugent with predictable results, then Alex Jones to bait them into animated gun totting diatribes designed to demonstrate how dangerous Americans with guns are. But it is backfiring. The political left for years has had more than their fair share of radical nutcases expressing their viewpoints and now they are trying to paint radicals on the right as “nutcases” as if they were above the ludicrous diatribes. America is showing that they are just as accepting—even willing to throw their support behind such animated personalities. Alex Jones as a radio show is very popular, but as an entertainer—it is evident that Alex is 100% committed to what he believes and taken at face value, he appears to be a certifiable nutcase conspiracy theorist. But the trouble with Alex is not that he may be certifiably insane, as people like Piers Morgan are attempting to frame in the court of public opinion. Quite the opposite, Alex Jones is suffering from being “too awake,” he’s too aware of the world around him and the level of deception that human beings are capable of—a trait that most of society gladly shuts their minds off to. When Alex Jones was asked to come onto the Piers Morgan Show to defend the Second Amendment, Jones exploded with the kind of dialogue that is becoming more and more common place all through the Midwest. The direction of the conversation appears to have created anxiety on the CNN set.
Jones is popular because he speaks to the kind of Americans that know something is terribly wrong at the very top. They realize that they have been lied to, they question all authority, and trust nobody in politics. The Alex Jones listeners, who are quite numerous, have accepted that there is no authority on Earth that can be trusted, and they instead put their faith in self-reliance. So it is not difficult for those types of people to question the reality and motivations of those in authority. They may get the details wrong—but they do not get wrong the tendency of human beings to impose their will on other human beings as the ultimate ego boost that is incredibly prevalent in politics and the money that puts politicians in power. That money often comes from political activist billionaires like George Soros and others like him who have an intense desire to shape the Earth into a vision of their own thinking, and they do not care if they impose their will on the individual rights of others who are not billionaires. It is they who do wish to supplant the American Constitution with a document more “progressive” so that they can gain the ability to have control of more people.
When Jones talks about the Bilderburger Group, and all the intertwined groups that serve the political interests of the very wealthy, he is noticeably fearful of their motives—which indicate sinister strategies against mankind. I believe that Jones was harassed while in New York City by thugs of the financially powerful who fully intend to destroy American sovereignty and rebuild it in their own image. When Jones became out-of-control during the CNN interview, I have no doubt that executives at CNN were on the phone with worry over what their bosses would think of the Jones/Morgan exchange because it backfired obviously. Jones did look like a crazy, maniacal, gun totting, lunatic—but he represents people like me, and millions of other gun supporters who reside in the core of America. I have said myself that I am ready for a new American Civil War. In fact, I expect it to become a reality in the very near future. I’m not going to give up any of my rights for the “greater good” as George Soros or anybody else sees it.
The growing realization that eventually people like Alex Jones will have to come to, that will come with time, is that there is nothing to fear from all those conspiracy makers. Once Jones and his fans realize that they have just as much power to inflict pain on the Bilderburgers or any armed gunmen who might try to harass them outside of the CNN building before an interview, they will discover that they always had the power—and that conspiracies of any kind are simply designed to move the minds of mankind in a particular direction, whether or not there is any truth to the conspiracy. The idea of a conspiracy direct or indirect is designed to strike fear in the minds of the recipients. However, once people realize that they are just as capable of inflicting the same kind of violence that the conspiracy perpetrators are, there really isn’t anything to fear from them. There is no reason to fear the gun carrying thug, the politician and their security details, “hit squads,” or just public relations specialists—they are all only human. If the quality of mind of one side is superior to the other with all other things being equal, then the strong mind will always prevail. Guns make the physical nature of conflict equal leaving only the minds to prevail over others—which is why the powerful wish to remove guns from society—because their minds are not superior to everyone else. Being more fiscally ruthless does not equate to a quality mind. The only way the extreme billionaire redemption addict looking to suppress the sins of their youth with philanthropy, is to control society by taking away the physical ability of equality—because the mind of those billionaire activists is not superior to their opponents. That is what the gun control argument is all about—power and control. Once that is realized, there is nothing to fear. The conspiracy generators are just pathetically simple people who use money to overcome their mental weaknesses in a quest for power and ruthlessness that made them billionaires in the first place.
Alex Jones is not crazy, and neither is Ted Nugent. They are passionate, and utter their anger that the world is not the honest one that they thought it was. In that regard their ideas about the world has been shattered. They wanted to believe that people on the other side of the political aisle were good—and they are outraged to find out that they aren’t. And they fear losing that equality measure of their political enemies having guns and them not having equal weapons because they desire to be law bidding citizens. Their political enemies are dirty and won’t follow any laws anyway, so the good people who follow Alex Jones will always be at a disadvantage to the radical extremists on the political left. Their anger isn’t insanity, its fear at losing their equal footing with those who wish to control their lives–so the emotions do get out-of-hand. If so many people weren’t asleep, they’d be angry too! However, Alex Jones would sleep better at night if he realized that the reason behind his conspiracy theories of ultimate control of the human population are because our enemies have insufficient intellects that cannot deal squarely with the minds of those they wish to suppress. They are not superior, and cannot control our society unless we surrender our ground and guns to them. Now that the chips are on the table, the other side has been exposed, and their argument will fade off into eventual oblivion like clouds on a hot August day evaporating before our eyes. There is nothing to fear from those people, because their actions are based on poor intellects and an abysmal understanding of reality which is a tendency that means they should fear us a lot more than we have need to fear them.
Alex Jones in that regard is not crazy, he’s simply passionate, and that makes him a good, healthy American doing his job.
For some reason, Michelle Obama thinks I’m her friend. She would be wrong. Tonight she sent me this ridiculous email:
Friend —
Four years ago, during his first inauguration, Barack and I were thrilled when thousands of Americans from every corner of the country took part in the National Day of Service honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
We were so excited because we knew that the celebrations weren’t just about a new president, but about everything that we can accomplish together. And that starts with service.
So this year, as we prepare for another celebration, we’re hoping to renew that spirit of service and citizenship — we’re calling on all Americans, including you, to volunteer in your community on Saturday, January 19th, for this year’s Day of Service.
Throughout our lives, Barack and I have seen that building a full life isn’t about what you can get for yourself — but what you can give to those around you. It’s a value that’s been central to our lives together. And as parents, it’s something we’re trying every day to pass down to our girls.
This inauguration is only possible because of you and all your hard work. Barack and I are so grateful for you, and for everything you’ve done for us and for our country.
Pledge to join us for the Day of Service at an event near you:
P.S. — When you commit to serve, you’ll be automatically entered for the chance to come out to Washington, D.C. for Barack’s inauguration — flight and hotel covered.
Lady……………..I don’t serve anybody. The only thing I’ll pledge is to throw you and your husband’s ass outta office. Enjoy your party spent with the money stolen from the American people through the strong-arm tactics of the IRS. The time is coming when the princes and princesses of The United States will learn that it is they who serve, not the other way around. And Michelle…………..sweetheart………….if you’re in such a giving mood……………..why not give back the millions of tax payer dollars you’ve spent on family vacations.
