_Washington DC_
Recently, Bill Clinton (“where are we Democrats now?” (here) -- Lost, is where!) took another shot at the tea party saying that he "didn’t understand how someone could stay so angry for so long and not need therapy."
Perhaps Bill doesn’t look to his left at night when he goes to bed.
Or maybe he forgot that Anti-War protesters have been at it since the 1960s, which is a little longer than two years, like the Tea Party. They don't need therapy though, its too late, Anti-War Protesters can only be helped by straight jackets.
Clinton ought to remember the drug induced (without inhaling?) Anti-War Protesters, after all, he was one of them. Could the reason that Bill forgot this fact so soon be result of his drug use? Of course, he wasn’t exactly in the US while writing about his disdain for the military. No. Clinton documented his disdain for our military from England—and did it while his countrymen were busy driving the Communist out of South Vietnam. It was a war escalated by one who Bill Clinton loves to coat-tail on as well, the great John F. Kennedy.

Defending the Honor of Those Who Silently Defend You
There have been many an example given in the last couple weeks alone of relative attrocities committed by our TSA (Transportation Security Administration). These actors aren't the clean-cut do-gooders one might expect to be working a job of such critical perceived importance. No. Rather, looking upon them & listening to them speak, one might wonder what gutter they were dredged up from. Better on the Government payroll than the welfare roll, right? More to the point, these people now follow a mandate to either view you naked in astonishing detail or, in place of that, lay their hands upon your very private places in very public view.
Now the Dept of Homeland Security, shoulder to shoulder with the White House, has issued a statement decrying the "overblown outrage." They point out that "fewer than one half of one percent of the 34 million passengers who traveled on airplanes in or to the U.S. last week were subjected to crotch-area pat-downs." Most of you are at least adept at basic arithmetic. So take a moment & do the math. Better yet, Jim Geraughty, columnist at the National Review Online, has already done it for you with astonishing clarity:
Transportation Security Administration chief John Pistole says that, despite the overwhelming success of the Isaeli passenger screening system, he’ll not implement or otherwise duplicate their methods. He cites his justification as “We do not profile.”
However, Janet Napolitano is considering the demands of Hamas-linked CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) to respect their belief that the head & neck of a Muslim woman isn’t to be touched. Thus, Napolitano is considering an innovative, effective, venerable & hyper-efficient method: the self-pat-down. Now one must ask a question beyond the obvious hilarity of that statement.
If CAIR is making demands of our federal government over such trivialities, how will they react when a Muslim woman gets a full pat-down in front of everybody? This would, of course, include the somewhat awkward raising of the hijab, that being loose-fitting, completely concealing clothing. If her Muslim jewel were to be grazed by the "unclean" hand of a TSAinfidel, imperialist, agent, do you imagine the Islamic community as a whole saying “Oh well. Allah Akbar, my brother.” during the collective shoulder-shrug? Please. Don’t answer.
So already you can see where this is going. Enter reality. Welcome! Something the far-left demonstrates a visceral hatred of is anything and everything Catholic. In fact, how many instances of Catholic sensibility have been heard coming from this administration and, in particular, the new, “friendlier” TSA?
Since this is all a matter of policy, the question must then be extended. Will the administration and the TSA protect the sanctity of our Catholic nuns? These are blessed, pious, chaste women leading a life of charity, service to community & God. To run them through a full body scanner and lay them out in "living resolution” on the technician’s monitor like a $2 window-whore would be, at best, beyond the limits of understandable or forgivable policy. To subject them to the enhanced pat-down procedures? That would rate with the physical manifestation of all things blasphemous at best.
They are, after all, brides of Christ. There is no room for creative interpretation here. That clearly supercedes the considerations for, and concerns of, brides & daughters of men… even those of Muslim men.
But a more pointed question, and the thesis of this article, is this: Why isn’t the conversation being held in regards to the sanctity of our Catholic nuns? There is a genuine outrage, though it be a suppressed & personal grumble for many, over the treatment of the general population with the newer TSA policies. But where’s the outrage over the unimaginable treatment the nuns would (and now HAVE, BTW) receive at the TSA’s hands? Thus far, reports of that conversation read exactly as follows: *crickets chirping*
So it’s time to not only start the conversation, but also to ask a simple question as 300 million of God’s American children. There is a way for this to happen very quickly & efficiently.
Many, if not most, reading this are familiar with Twitter and have an account established there. (It’s convenient and easy to set one up if you don’t). It is at you, tweeters, that I direct this simple question-asking method. The Transportation Security Administration now has a twitter-presence as well. To that end, I suggest a simple, viral method of inquiry. Please tweet the following, then follow the instructions. There is a grammatical error; it’s necessary due to the character limit twitter allows for each message.
Defend the honor of those silently defending YOU! Plz copy following tweet & send it as ur own–> http://tinyurl.com/39jl8ng #tcot #catholic

Tweet that out as well. What’s happened is that when you send out the first tweet, it instructs the reader to open the second tweet, copy the contents of that tweet, and send it as their own. In this way, the TSA twitter account gets bombarded with a steady stream of the question from many users, the list of which would grow daily and, hopefully, exponentially. Do this as often as feels good to you. Just remember: you only have 140 characters, and twitter won’t allow you to send the exact same tweet out more than once or twice per day (assuming enough time in between).
A change of a word or spelling, changing the #tcot hashtag to the #gop hashtag, changing a capital letter to a lower-case letter… all methods of changing the tweet such that twitter will send it out for you. Any red-blooded twitter-user that understands the necessity for that conversation will retweet the original message from their own account as well. Wash, Rinse, Repeat.
In closing, it must be acknowledged that there’s a great darkness befalling America. These screenings are but a microcosm of the evil that couches itself in the seed of immorality. These immoralities, justified by authority and entertainment alike, will test us daily. We must stand, look squarely into the eyes of our assailant and do what we know is right.
Thank you, and GOD BLESS YOU!

"one half of one percent of 34 million air travelers still adds up to between 170,000 and 340,000 TSA hands wandering around 170,000 crotches last week. (Depends on whether they used one hand or two.) If just one half of one percent of those searches involve some sort of inappropriate touching or other unprofessional behavior, that still means that 850 Americans got their privates groped or manhandled by government employees. Last week. This week will include more, because it’s a heavier travel week."Maybe this is all meant to degrade & humiliate the population, preparing them for the police state we all see forming right here in our beloved America. Maybe it's designed to discourage air travel, thus putting the airlines in dire straights. Follow that line of thought for a moment & you get what? Air Amerika. Regardless, there's some contributing factors that do more than add insult to injury.

A Pointed Response to the Democrat's Letter...
The DemoRats, desperately clinging to the tattered threads of their dreams, are looking for any excuse to explain their recent fall from (dis)grace. Enter their favorite scheme: the fall guy (Not so distant echoes of "It's all Bush's fault!" still ringing in my ears). They blame Republican demonization of Speaker Pelosi for their defeat by proxy & draft a letter asking her to step aside. More closely aligned with the reality of their shameful defeat, though, would be their voting in lock-step with the evil so-n-so's socialist/communist agenda. How about we guarantee their defeat in 2012 by the letter being posted & referenced FREQUENTLY? It exposes with blinding clarity what today's Democrats really are: anti-American.
Here's what their letter does NOT say: "Look, you gave it a good run. You fought hard, but you're completely out of touch with the will of America. It's time to bring REAL Democrats back to congress, Madam. Please, step away from the gavel." No, instead they snivel, begging her step aside, prostrating themselves shamelessly before her highness. They cower & grovel like beaten & ruined animals, and they pray against a merciless fate of political castration. That attitude & those actions... THAT'S why they got voted out. THAT'S why they'll lose 2012. JFK would roll in his grave were he to witness what his beloved party has become.
Following is the text of the letter in draft form:
America is experiencing an awakening. To complete this blessed paradigm-shift, we must push the progressive trash out of our schools. We MUST end this insidious cycle of indoctrination & dependence. The schools now produce relatively weak, bleeding-heart whiners for children at best. Concerning the remaining students, we bear witness to the march of hard-core socialists rejecting competion for anything beyond bringing "communism-lite" to America the Father Land..
Bring back American Meritocracy... the virtues of hard work & personal achievement... the ethics & moralities of a society versed in the rubrics of civility. When GOD & FAMILY are restored as the core & strength of America, all else will fall into balance. The alternative is one much less attractive: we become the proletariat collective of United Socialist States of Amerika (USSA). Think long & hard about the ramifications, make your choice, ACT on your decision & STAND by those actions with CONVICTION & HONOR!
The heart of America will beat with a strong, steady & healthy rhythm again once the sleepy-eyed folk of this great country do awaken. They'll realize the overwhelming majority have fallen prey to the piper's spell so aptly cast by a handful of spoiled, adolescent degenerates. They won't be happy, but they'll be immeasurably effective.

Following is the text of the letter in draft form:
Many of us want the chance to run again and reclaim the seats that we lost on Tuesday. With you as the leader of House Democrats, the hangover of 2010 stands no chance of subsiding. Many of us have run our last race but remain committed to our party; we want to help recruit successful candidates to run in our stead. Unfortunately, we fear that Republicans will further demonize you, and in so doing they will scare potential candidates out. The prospect of having to run against their own party leadership in addition to their Republican opponent is simply too daunting.
This is a difficult letter to write, because we admire your commitment, your drive, and your conviction. You have been an historic figure in our great nation, and for that we are all proud, as should you be. Nonetheless, we each experienced how Republican demonization of you and your leadership contributed to our defeat.
It is impossible not to judge the results of November 2nd as anything but a profound loss. We want to recover. Recovery of our majority in the House necessitates new leadership at the top of our party. We believe that you can and will play an extraordinary role in our party, and it is extremely unfortunate that Republicans have taken away your ability to lead as effectively as you are able. Nonetheless, one mark of a strong leader is the ability to discern when it is time to pass the baton. As defeated members, whose party needs to rebuild, we are counting on you to show the strength of your leadership in this dark hour. We ask that you step aside as leader of our party in the House.
With utmost respect, we are..

If you want to know the TRUTH about Islam, this is a MUST SEE
You hear it said over & over that Islam is a religion of peace. They're quite at peace with blowing up civilians, beheading perceived infidels, honor killings, lying, cheating, and turning a critical eye at everything. We're told every bit as frequently that Islam has been hijacked by a small group of radicals. Would those of that faith so silent about the aberrations committed in the name of Islam be of that representative group? Yes, hijacked by a small group of... MOST OF THEM. You've heard Islam is a religion of love & tolerance. So why do they fight so hard against everything non-Muslim (if they aren't busy killing it)? Those that don't have the stomach to do their own lying, beating, cheating, maiming & killing give freely their time & money to organizations that are all too proud of having dirty hands. This abomination must be stopped. Our nation, the greatest economic engine the world has ever seen & most beautiful representative republic of the people, is sandwiched between the forces of radical DemoRats and the Islamic storm. There's 3 sides to every story; the truth is told here.

Breaking News: Fired Catholic professor reinstated at University of Illinois
Champaign, Ill., Jul 29, 2010 / 05:27 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- A professor who was recently fired for explaining the Catholic teaching on homosexuality will be reinstated, according to the University of Illinois. Dr. Kenneth Howell’s position at the school was terminated at the end of the Spring Semester this year after teaching in a class on Catholicism that the Church believes homosexual behavior violates natural law.
A Thursday letter from the University of Illinois Office of University Counsel told Howell’s lawyers at the Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) that “The School of Literatures, Cultures and Linguistics will be contacting Dr. Howell to offer him the opportunity to teach Religion 127, Introduction to Catholicism, on a visiting instructional appointment at the University of Illinois, for the fall 2010 semester. Dr. Howell will be appointed and paid by the University for this adjunct teaching assignment.”
Howell had been teaching at the university since 2001 and consistently gained high approval ratings on student evaluations. In a class on Catholicism last spring, he followed up a classroom discussion with an e-mail contrasting the ways in which utilitarianism and natural law theory would each determine the morality of homosexual conduct.
A student complained that Howell’s words were “hate speech” in an e-mail to the head of the department, Dr. Robert McKim. Howell was called into McKim’s office at the end of the semester and told that he would no longer be allowed to teach for the university because his e-mail had “violate[d] university standards of inclusivity.”
In Howell’s defense, the ADF declared that the First Amendment exists to keep controversial ideas from being suppressed. “A university cannot censor professors’ speech–including classroom speech related to the topic of the class–merely because certain ideas ‘offend’ an anonymous student,” said ADF Senior Counsel David French.
“We greatly appreciate the university’s move to put Professor Howell back in the classroom,” he continued, “but we will be watching carefully to make sure that his academic freedom is protected throughout the university’s ongoing process.”

A Patriot's Dreams...
Beautiful Patriots,
I awaken every morning exhausted after restless nights. I worry that there must be MORE I can do to make a difference... more than I've realized or employed... because public speaking is not enough. Motivating is not enough. The regrets of what could have been accomplished… they serve only as a heavy burden, and that is not enough. But we beat those that endeavor to destroy our republic every night. Every night, we defeat them at their own game. Every night, we’re faster; we’re smarter! Every night we’re wiser. Every night it becomes easier to anticipate & counter their moves. Every night we charge them with treason, and every night we gorge ourselves with an almost sinful excess from the cornucopia of victory! Then I awaken, Patriots… every morning. And every morning I feel infinitesimally tiny & insignificant… frightened & naked… cold & wet… vulnerable & quivering with mortality & anger as I hold the line, gazing up in fearful awe at this behemoth that mows down with dark discrimination our liberty & country. And suddenly it matters not that only moments before I was blessed by an audience of the Founding Fathers & God himself. It’s lost that I was honored with their words of encouragement, their promise of protection and their gifts of triumphant tactics. I know at that difficult moment of cold consciousness only that no ground may be lost. Only through a grand awakening will our recruiting efforts bring to fruition burgeoning ranks of patriot defenders. And so I set forth… every morning… to educate & motivate. I dedicate myself to bringing to our youth the virtues of family & conservatism, and I make this journey with tunnel-vision focus on the struggle at hand. Finally, slumber finds me spent & exhausted… every night… and I’m again visited by those gentle giants that lay their guiding hands warmly upon my shoulders & reveal to me the compass of direction for the salvation of our republic.
Every day our Republic is rewarded by the fruits of our efforts... thousands of organizing patriots and growing... every single day... by sometime only 1, but that's one more voice added to the collective that's AWAKE and ENGAGED in this fight to save our country and all that she stands for. That's one more that's ALIVE and not going to have their vitality diminished by growing gov't control. That's ONE MORE that will awaken another 1... or 10... or 100... or 1000 to the dangers of what's being pushed by the cancer we call progressivism. That's ONE MORE that I add every night to my prayers, and that's ONE MORE that I express my love & GRATITUDE for & to daily.
Those that are awakening aren't the "summer statesmen" that speak well & accomplish nothing. They aren't those that are engaged when it's convenient. These aren't those that invoke the spirit of hope in order to hide the change thumping on our foreheads. These newly awakened are those that are truly frightened & looking for direction now, for their paradigm has been shattered. This, my Patriots, is a resource which MUST be tapped & employed! We must Must MUST take them in & teach them the LIBERTY of "free thought," and we must encourage them to, once contemplating ALL the facts, come to their own conclusions. Foster this behavior... reverse the progressive programming they've endured... and watch with parental pride as they grow to embrace the virtues of our Republic. This is the LEAST of your duties as independent citizens, and nothing you do will mean a thing should these opportunities be overlooked. They will come back with a vengeance once re-indoctrinated if we don't assist them in their own awakenings. And when they do, they will hurt the Republic in ways that may bring her to her blessed knees.
The choice is truly yours, Darlings. So what have YOU done today? This is a question you must all ask yourself with solemn honesty, for the results of this question unanswered may prove grave, and hell will gaze upon you every morning... from your mirror... as you contemplate what you might have done differently... and cry. But you'll not know this hell, for you are a true patriot every bit committed to solutions & action as you are to freedom & liberty, and I cheer for you!
Thank you;
I love you;
Good Night, Dear Ones

An Evening Rant of Encouragement
My beloved Patriots, our politicians have all pimped us out as part of a greater agenda. Our economy is now the world's wretched whore, and she's being RAPED by destructive spending. Our once mighty industrial back has been broken by traitorous trade agreements, and we fight now for just the dignity of owning our own choices.
They've dumbed down a generation by rewriting our history as taught in public school. They've made acceptable the proliferation of everything socially abhorrent, and we've allowed them to. Now the elite gaze down their hooked beaks at this new proletariat & tell us we're not bright enough to understand the issues we fight for... that they haven't explained them well enough, or maybe they need to simplify things.
And to them I say only this: you have not yet seen the fight we so patiently restrain. You will fall prey to the American "can-do" spirit of indominable achievement. You will be bound tightly by the chains of your own insidious ambitions, for we are Americans, and WE... ARE... FREE!!!!
Do not settle for "jobs bill" stimulus packages that create only positions of serfdom or dependence. As AMERICANS we lead the world in entrepreneurial innovation. Unleash the full force of our creativity, and you will witness immediately the harbingers of prosperity circle above on great wings of unfettered flight!
There are a couple things we must endeavor immediately. Send the children outside to play. They'll raise themselves amongst peers with the guidance of your lessons & encouragement of your confidence. They are our future, and liberty is only one generation away from loss at any given time. Replace the electric-window nanny with your participation. You must run with your children, and you must turn off the propaganda box! We've invited the agents of family destruction in to the sanctuary of the home, and we must now show them the door!
To summarize, we will only reclaim our beloved republic by reigning in treasonous politicians and by taking back our youth, and we must ALWAYS teach our children to be responsible for themselves. So go forth and ring the bell in that shining city on the hill. Mobilize the people, Defenders... open their eyes & free them with TRUTH!
Beautiful Patriots, the warmth of slumber beckons, and the siren's song of sleep paints a perfect Picasso of my logic. That said, you have my love, my gratitude, my prayers and my respect. You stand together & hold high with pride the grand torch of liberty. You shine that guiding light out to all our fighting brethren, because the tempestuous onslaught of a determined juggernaut continues. But it's outclassed by our raw determination, grit, earthiness & love of country, and we will prevail. There are no other possibilities! So you sleep well my dear ones, for our spirit is eternal & our fight is righteous.

Good night, and God bless you one & all.

What will YOU do?
Deeply moving prose becomes tinny, hollow rhetoric when not backed & reinforced by commitment & action. I'm running for district committeeman. If more don't step up, I'll take over as one of the state coordinators as well. What are YOU doing (besides complaining)? I don't care if you're democrat, republican, or otherwise. It's time to take back our country & principals and defend the honor & integrity of our constitution from the progressives. It's time to QUIT complaining. Put up or shut up, folks! (we now return you to your regularly scheduled programming)

Which are you?
If we're to take back this great republic, reset our understanding of our nation to that of our founders and maintain a state of integrity in our elected officials, we must be ever vigilant and EDUCATED!
There are 6 commonly accepted interpretive style definitions for reading and understanding our Constitution. Which are you? To answer the question, you'll have to do some research. Don't worry... it's not too painful. And it's only AMERICA AT STAKE!!!
Furthermore, something we must always be weary & watchful of are "activist" judges and judicial activism in general. There's another 6 dimensions available to describe the different activist frameworks. Do any of these resonate with you? Have you witnessed anything similar?

- Specificity of Policy
- Availability of an Alternate Policymaker
We must study our history
Though commonplace to subscribe to the "no matter where you're at, there you are" perspective, you must know where you have been to chart where you are going. To that end, we must study our constitution. We must understand and appreciate what it means to live in and contribute to a functioning republic. When we leave it in the hands of others to define our constitution and govern in accordance, we then deserve any and every distortion and misinterpretation. By extension, we become unworthy of this grand republic. We're no longer responsible stewards of the privileges and rights outlined in the world's greatest political document.
I would strongly suggest anyone with the least bit of concern for our nation & the continuation of our system read & study The Federalist Papers.
Per www.foundingfathers.info, "the Federalist Papers consist of 85 essays outlining how this new government would operate and why this type of government was the best choice for the United States of America." From whom, or from what more qualified source, would we endeavor to learn the true intentions of the founding fathers? From their pens to your brains.
How Lucky It Is for Our Politicians That Americans Do Not Think (written by a REAL Constitutional attorney)
By John W. Whitehead
1/29/2010
“A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves.”—Edward R. Murrow“How lucky it is for rulers,” Adolf Hitler once said, “that men cannot think.” The horrors that followed in Nazi Germany might have been easier to explain if Hitler had been right. But the problem is not so much that people cannot think but that they do not think. Or if they do think, as in the case of the German people, that thinking becomes muddled and easily led.
Hitler’s meteoric rise to power, with the support of the German people, is a case in point. On January 30, 1933, Hitler was appointed chancellor of Germany in full accordance with the country’s legal and constitutional principles. When President Paul von Hindenburg died the following year, Hitler assumed the office of president, as well as that of chancellor, but he preferred to use the title Der Füehrer (the leader) to describe himself. This new move was approved in a general election in which Hitler garnered 88 percent of the votes cast.
We must save ourselves...
Are you brave enough to read the Articles of Freedom and sign a pledge to adhere to them? Too many fought & died for this country to allow it to be steamrolled by this insane progressive movement. We must... we MUST... honor their sacrifices and our obligations as citizens! This is the singularly most successful & free nation in the history of this planet. Would you trade your liberties for the comfort of your complacency?
"He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security." ~Benjamin Franklin

“Declaration of Revolution”
Something ominous this way comes, weaving its insidious tendrils through the fabric of our great nation, each with focused purpose & destructive intent. These thorns & vines of poison & sabotage have names: corruption; tax; personal agenda. Their effects will be severely exacerbated by virtue of their own aggressive oppressions: oppression of creativity; oppression of productivity; oppression of investment. And now you hear the esteemed elders in our communities. They see something the spoon-fed masses miss completely. They loath & fear terms like “nationalization” & “social-justice;” so do I. These words have been invoked before.
There was a gentleman that, while in a position similar to that of this president, initiated a number of public construction programs and government initiatives to stem economic setbacks and unemployment. When those results failed to meet his vision, he began a push for government control of business. Finally, he instituted a system of wage and price controls. Does any of this sound familiar? You may know of him. He was an Italian. He went by the name Benito Mussolini.
Democracy is not the desired end for people like him or any others that don’t represent you when they cast their votes, write their bills and make their decisions. To them, democracy is a means to an end. We are in danger, and these days may be among our final as a society free to achieve our aspirations & enjoy the fruits of our accomplishments! You may be in the final days of having a voice and ability to exercise your actionable right to reclaim the government of our beloved republic.
You feel something amiss weighing upon you heavily. You know things are misaligned with that which our founders provided us. John Hancock told us the following in the Declaration of Independence:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."
When government no longer recognizes its position as representatives of the people, sent by the people, working FOR the people, then it becomes a cesspool of greed and power-hungry hypocrisy in desperate need of draining, sterilization and reclamation! Our government is now a bloated model of inefficiency & bureaucracy and a swamp of corruption & spending that must be drained & dried so we might plant the seeds of proven & effective ideas in the fertile soils that remain… soils that remain rich by the promise of WE THE PEOPLE turning under those entities that sprout forth voting, writing or otherwise espousing anything with less than their CONSTITUENT’S interests at heart. WE START NOW!!! WE are the pumps; WE are the plows; WE OURSELVES are to blame for the unconscionable character of our federal, state and local government officials, and ONLY WE can empower ourselves to clean these houses!
So yes… I’m angry; I'm scared; I'm saddened. I'm also inspired by all the now-enlightened I witness on the street and hear in conversation, each asking a very simple question: “WHY isn’t somebody doing something?” Look around you… to your left… to your right… before & behind you. THIS is the change you voted for!
As we empower & elevate ourselves above this maelstrom of discontent & darkness, I see clearly that critical mass has been achieved. Critical mass has been achieved, and we will not be relegated to the dusty & dimly-lit museum halls of retired ideals & irrelevance; we will not be led like sheep through the left or right-wing gates of an ideological slaughterhouse, bludgeoned & silenced by their defamation & tactics; we will not be labeled dissenters for holding dear the principals that make this the greatest nation on Earth. But do we reject their efforts to commit upon us these violations? NO! No. We EMBRACE them and express gratitude, for they have with great prejudice brought to the center stage of our consciousness the consequences of political complacency and united us around the single cause of saving our country. We will NOT reject them. Rather we rise in celebration of our love for America, our collective voice raised… unified… ringing out like the perfect-pitch of a fine bell to stay the beasts in Washington and demand back those rights & liberties our grandparents… our parents… our sons & our daughters have fought & died to preserve & protect. So the question becomes… the REAL question becomes this: Who among you are SERIOUS about resurrecting our paradigm & shining proudly the brilliant light seen the world over that is the American way of life?
I ask this because the seeds of despotism have been long planted and tended, and those that would benefit from this pillaging of liberty are now salivating like Pavlov’s dogs watching their dreams come to fruition. And to counter that, we patriots dutifully attend our tea-parties, write our congressmen and call the congressional switchboard. But we must now do more… much, much more, for I fear our great republic now teeters precariously on the precipice of existence. And yet… I address you with a heart full of hope.
Allow me please to turn your attention to an excerpt of a lecture given to students at Paris Sorbonne. The lecture was titled “The Man in the Arena.” The year was 1910; the speaker, Theodor Roosevelt:
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
America is waking up, and you… here… today… are “that man!” So it is with great humility and gratitude that I address you, survey you, and bear witness to a growing collective that acts with a renewed sense of responsibility to the republic, to the community, and to the family! That being said, this is a call to action! UNLEASH YOUR POWER!!!
FEEL your ancestors demand we cast off this darkness. Shine down that brilliant light, shredding & driving to the most remote corners the shadows of this tyranny. Rise up with power, with strength, and with honor; stand up for the innocent; stand up for the country; stand up to these parasites… all these lesser men that bind themselves together as hordes & endeavor to pull down the strong… STAND UP & tell them they’re not your gods… they’re not your owners… THEY ARE NOT YOUR KINGS! You have an absolute divine right as creatures made in the image of the creator to be and remain FREE! These people have their hands around the throat of the republic, and they are tightening their grip. STAND UP!!! March on their offices. Force them to look into the eyes of the grass-roots anger they themselves have cultivated through action and ASK HARD QUESTIONS! Corner them & demand answers. Demonstrate to them that not only do they work for YOU, but they are to be held accountable. Remind them that they are mere men & women and there are consequences for each & every action; MAKE THIS THEIR JUDGEMENT DAY! STAND UP!!! Stand up and reclaim your birthright… your stake in that great and historic social experiment that is our blessed republic: the United States of America! YOU STAND UP!!!
My name is Citizen Sean, and I say VIVA LA RÉVOLUTION!!! I have never bowed to a living soul, nor shall I ever. On this day, however, allow me to drop to one proverbial knee and pledge to you the service of my pen & my sword; I dedicate to you my hand, my voice, my body.
In closing, we must now return to a time of principal… when we as a people believed in family… and community… and Judeo-Christian values regardless of our individual spiritual belief systems… a time of hope and inspiration and aspiration… dreams and goals and audacity; return to a time when citizens were motivated to succeed by a beautiful & functional balance of opportunity & stigma; return to a time when people made their decisions knowing they were responsible for their choices. That’s a time when there was a much more narrowly defined mono-cultural society… not Anglo-American… not African-American… not native-American or Asian-American… just American. Let’s return to a day when the community worked to inspire & lead one out of poverty, not just pity & provide them handouts. We are Americans. We don’t give fish... we teach to fish. As Americans, we don’t strive to bring the successful down… we endeavor to lift the unfortunate up.
I Thank you, and may God bless you!
