6 Nov 2012: Buy a Gun Day

Arctic Patriot has taken point on an outstanding effort, encouraging every Patriot to buy a firearm on November 6th…Election Day.

His choice of Election Day is superb.  November 5th or 7th could be spun by the media and anti-gunners as a commentary about a specific candidate.

But setting Buy a Gun Day on Election Day broadcasts an unmistakable message: Whoever sits in the Oval Office or seats of Senators or Representatives should take notice of Patriots.

As I write this column we are 274 days out.

If you set aside just $3 every day, you’ll go to your favorite gun shop with $822 in your pocket.  $2 per day will give you a budget of $548.  Even if you set aside just $1 per day and show up with $274, you have a decent selection of new pocket pistols in range, and who knows what bargain you might find in the used case.

The point is simple: Let’s make news by posting a BIG day for FBI NICS checks.  Let’s remind those who would be Masters that we have no intention of going gently into that good night.  Let’s have so many people buying on Election Day that when the MSM interviews AP he’ll be able to put the III on the national stage.

Is Everything Good Enough for Ronald Reagan, Good Enough for Rick Santorum?

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLQnoVpkyqc

Ronald Reagan, interview with Reason Magazine, July 1975:

“If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism. I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals–if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is.

Obama Still Poised to take over Churches and Eliminate First Amendment

With regards to government intervention into religion, the First Amendment to the US Constitution states:  “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”  First, Congress is the Constitutional body that has the authority to make laws for the United States of America.  Second, it is to steer clear of anything pertaining to freedom of religion.

The president of the United States has no authority—whatsoever—to make any laws or influence religion in any way, whatsoever.  Therefore, Obama had and has NO authority to demand that anyone or any body—let alone the Catholic or any other Christian Church or Jewish synagogue—must appease him by providing birth control, abortions or anything else the tyrant requires.  Further, he does not have the authority to compromise or ‘work a deal’ with any Church about anything.  Question:  Does anyone in this country still remember that the US Constitution is our foundational LEGAL document?  And what is it about “no authority” that seems to confuse so many of the Obama media?

Greek police union wants to arrest EU/IMF officials

Update:

The Greek Government heads for a reshuffle as five cabinet members resign over tough austerity measures required to secure a €130bn bailout package, while PM Lucas Papademos warns that default would be “uncontrolled chaos”.

The Socialist response for fiscal incompetence is to blame someone else. The Obama administration blames the rich for not paying their “fair share”. The Greek police union are threatening to arrest EU and IMF officials for “demanding deeply unpopular austerity measures”.

When politicians use social programs to buy votes, the consequences are ALWAYS the same. At the point when the system cannot sustain the handouts, the people receiving the handouts rise up for their “rights”. At this point, the top down government crushes the bottom up rebellion and institutes a new government. What kind of government do you think the United States will be given when this happens?

Syrian Insurgency Spreading

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Bfy0vLjMeI

http://www.euronews.net/ The upsurge in violence in Syria has spread to the northern city of Aleppo, where soldiers and civilians have been killed in separate explosions, according to state TV. It said a building used by military intelligence and a security forces as a base, had been targeted in what it described as “terrorist” attacks.

This attack by the insurgency in Syria against government facilities has two points:

  1. This attacks were in Aleppo for the first time
  2. It appears that the “terrorists” supported by the Muslim Brotherhood and the West are ramping up. Who is providing the money and arms?

Roll the dice: Greece, Syria, Israel or Iran?

Fox Cancels FreedomWatch

Fox is cancelling FreedomWatch, according to sources.

For anyone who has ever watched the Judge, you know his was the last serious show on television with a genuine appreciation for Liberty. He is a strong Paul advocate (perhaps that’s why he’s being cancelled?)

More as this develops.

I bet we will see the Judge shortly on GBTV.

Did “Hope and Change” Mean “Allah Akbar”?

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh1Xohmwwgc

“Genuine democracy will carry the day.”

Barack Obama, February 2011

See additional comments on Tea Party Nation.

One year later, we can look back at this turning point in history. The support of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt by our leadership in Washington has now resulted in their control of the Egyptian parliament. Today (February 9, 2012), the Muslim Brotherhood has called for a new Egyptian government to be led by a Brotherhood prime minister. Welcome to Sharia Law in Egypt and another dressed stone in the foundation of the new Islamic Caliphate.

As the United States (or more accurately, the Obama administration) supports this new “democracy” in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and now Syria, we are seeing that “hope and change” really meant “Allah Akbar”.

The judicial branch is also supporting this movement as shown by Justice Ginsburg:

From Egypt, Ginsburg continued her work with the State Department by heading to Tunisia, where the Arab Spring protest movement had its start. Tunisians recently marked the one-year anniversary of the revolution that ended the dictatorship of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and sparked uprisings around the Arab world.

One justice out of nine does not represent a majority of the judicial branch. We have to ask ourselves which branch of the government is responsible for maintaining our laws which are based on the tenets outlined in the Bible? Where is the outcry from the rest of the Supreme Court when one of their members denounces the U.S. Constitution that they have all sworn to protect? Where is our national outcry from the people as this administration is about to enter into another “kinetic action” in Syria where once again, the United States will be supporting the Muslim Brotherhood under the guise of the “right to protect”?

Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Pastor Bonhoeffer gave his life for his belief that we must act to confront and destroy evil. Where is the outcry in Congress and our church to confront the evil in our government which has abandoned Israel? Will supporting Israel in a conflagration against Iran be more than a diversion in this plan to support a new order?

At some point we need to start looking forward and realize that our inaction to confront the evil in our own country now will have consequences that could  and should have been avoided. We must stop looking backward: Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.

As our government is staging the next war in the Middle East, let us hope that we act in accordance with our beliefs and heritage instead of aiding the next Caliphate.

Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood Wants Government Sacked

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood is calling on the country’s ruling generals to sack the current military-appointed government, saying it has failed to manage the deteriorating security and economic situation in the country.

Brotherhood spokesman Mahmoud Ghozlan says the military should appoint a Brotherhood representative prime minister, who would then form a new coalition government.

The Brotherhood controls nearly 50 percent of the seats in the new parliament.

Ghozlan said Thursday a government backed by parliament would be more empowered to handle challenging security and economic problems.

British and Qatari Troops Are Now in Syria Supporting the Muslim Brotherhood

First foreign troops in Syria back Homs rebels.

Damascus and Moscow at odds

British and Qatari special operations units are operating with rebel forces under cover in the Syrian city of Homs just 162 kilometers from Damascus, according to DEBKAfile’s exclusive military and intelligence sources. The foreign troops are not engaged in direct combat with the Syrian forces bombarding different parts of Syria’s third largest city of 1.2 million. They are tactical advisers, manage rebel communications lines and relay their requests for arms, ammo, fighters and logistical aid to outside suppliers, mostly in Turkey.

This site is the first to report the presence of foreign military forces in any of the Syrian uprising’s embattled areas. Our sources report the two foreign contingencies have set up four centers of operation – in the northern Homs district of Khaldiya, Bab Amro in the east, and Bab Derib and Rastan in the north. Each district is home to about a quarter of a million people.

The presence of the British and Qatari troops was seized on by Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan for the new plan he unveiled to parliament in Ankara Tuesday, Feb. 7. Treating the British-Qatari contingents as the first foreign foot wedged through the Syrian door, his plan hinges on consigning a new Turkish-Arab force to Homs through that door and under the protection of those contingents. Later, they would go to additional flashpoint cities.

In the close to eleven months of the Syrian revolt, Erdogan has hatched more than one scheme for countering the Assad regime’s savage crackdown on dissent. His most persistent was a plan for the creation of military buffer zones to shelter rebels and civilians persecuted by the Syrian authorities. But nothing came of those plans because, every time they came up, Assad reinforced his contingents on the Turkish border and deployed air defense and surface-to-surface missile batteries. He made it clear that the first Turk crossing the border would spark a full-scale war.

Remember the Articles on Bank Runs?

This graphic shows that people are taking money out of European banks. Without personal savings to lend, banks have no supply to meet demand for loans. Why do you think the US is sending over $80 billion a week to Europe?  Continue reading

Stand Up for Your Convictions – No Matter How You Are Labelled

See additional comments on Tea Party Nation

If ever the Time should come, when vain & aspiring Men shall possess the highest Seats in Government, our Country will stand in Need of its experienced Patriots to prevent its Ruin.

Samuel Adams

The above premise accurately describes the government in Washington, DC. Power and greed have replaced honor and duty. Do we have experienced Patriots to prevent our ruin? Who would you classify as a statesman on the level of Patrick Henry or Thomas Paine? Who would you follow into harm’s way in your own town or community to secure your children’s freedom?

Like the thief in the night, our politicians have eroded our freedom by enslaving us in debt that can never be repaid. Half of “We the People” receive a government check for assistance and the “public sector” has become the engine for tyranny through excessive taxation, fear and regulation. The solution will not be found in the next election: the solution is an awakening in the people.

The final change in government has already happened. The 2008 election of Obama in conjunction with a Democrat controlled Congress through 2010 overthrew the last vestiges of our founding principles. The 2010 elections which resulted in a Republican majority in the House did little more than slow the march to Socialism:

  1. We still have no budget
  2. We still have national health care
  3. Unemployment is still over 9% (another example of the government’s lack of respect for the people by manipulating information)
  4. Our debt ceiling raises were ceded to the executive branch by John Boehner in August
  5. The NDAA destroyed the fabric of the Bill of Rights with the “blessings” of both parties
  6. The president used the State of the Union to outline his vision for dictatorial powers in order to “streamline” government

Do we need experienced patriots to prevent our ruin? Yes. Where do we find these men and women? Do you personally know a true statesman who has honor and integrity to speak out for our country? And that is our problem. We need to find (and also become) statesmen who will save our country not through government office but by deeds. Find the business owner who is standing on principle against government regulations. Expose corruption and government incompetence at all levels in your newspapers, websites and YouTube.

The task before us must be undertaken in conjunction with our Judeo-Christian heritage without hesitation as our forefathers understood. Do we stand for the rule of law as originally taken from the Bible and incorporated into the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution? Or do we sit idly by as a Supreme Court Justice belittles our Constitution that she has sworn to uphold. What do you think the founding fathers and mothers would have done to Justice Ginsburg? The Catholic church is standing up as our Presbyterian ministers did in the period leading up to the American Revolution. Imagine if more pastors and ministers stood up for the Word of God instead of the tax exemption of the 501(C)3.

How does the government view patriots who speak out for our principles and beliefs? The following excerpt outlines their response to people who show dissent to tyranny. Now is the time for all good men and women to stand up for our convictions, irregardless of the consequences of a government which has labelled us as terrorists.

If you agree, forward this article.

Highlights:

  1. We are not too far behind Greece.
  2. Our spending is out of control.
  3. It is up to Congress to figure out the right role of government in regards to the economy.
  4. The cost of government is leading us to Socialism and Communism.
  5. If there is no change to our entitlement programs, we will become a Socialist country.
  6. We have no presidential leadership with president Obama.
  7. Uncertainty in the government is impacting the economy.

The only surprise is that they are both clear in the direction our country is headed.

John Cornyn Questions Ben Bernanke

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tz-W_Nzkv8

Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) questions Ben Bernanke concerning the unemployment rate, the European recession and household income. Mr. Bernanke states that the United States exports to Europe accounts for 2% of our GDP. The export rate to Europe is almost next year’s GDP growth projection from the CBO of 2.8%. The upcoming European collapse coupled with inflationary pressure will put the economy into a deeper recession that even the media will not be able to cover.

The forecast by Mr. Bernanke in 2013 is one of a moderate recovery. His answers to Sen. Cornyn’s questions did not give much confidence for the economy.
