The CB Patriot Project launch
by Scott Ryan
http://www.cbPatriot.com


This project has been on my heart for the past few months as I have observed the behavior of the Saboteur in Chief and reconcile it with the fact that he has been seeking to derogate dictatorial power, especially over free speech on the Internet.

As I wrote at cbPatriot.com:

Americans are dangerously inter-dependent upon cell phone towers and Internet servers throughout the nation. Whether intentional or by natural disaster, ALL of these can be instantly shut down during “emergencies”.

The CB Patriot Project is organizing around a simple technology and making it the back-bone of an emergency plan. By linking patriotic Americans across their homes, cities, states & country, we will be prepared for national or regional emergencies that could otherwise shut down our ability to communicate with one another.

After the financial meltdown of 2007 and the 2008 elections, millions of Americans organically organized and united with one another in a way that might never have happened without the Internet. If you remember how empowering it was to be among the millions who rallied together nationwide, you KNOW that the most important asset we have is EACH OTHER.

Those who desire to stifle liberty know that communication is key and that is why they want more control over the Internet and cell towers. That is why it is vital that no event and no would-be tyrant can ever take that away from you or any other American.

We are being so overwhelmed while our core American values are being attacked from ever angle, so much so that it is difficult for most people to keep up with the daily encroachments against our liberties. Following are a couple articles from the past year expatiating on how the left are trying to usurp enough power to shut down all Internet communications in the country in the event of loosely defined, subjective "national emergencies". Read the excerpts; then decide for yourself whether you are going to WAIT until they derogate this power before making a backup plan for yourself.

If you want to prepare, select the The Plan link at the top or bottom of this page.

“Bill would give President Emergency Control of the Internet”

“Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers from the Internet.


They're not much happier about a revised version that aides to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, have spent months drafting behind closed doors. CNET News has obtained a copy of the 55-page draft of S.773 (excerpt), which still appears to permit the president to seize temporary control of private-sector networks during a so-called cybersecurity emergency.

The new version would allow the president to "declare a cybersecurity emergency" relating to "non-governmental" computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the threat.”

Obama to be given the right to shut down the internet with 'kill switch'
“President Obama will be given the power to shut down the Internet with a 'kill switch' in a new law being proposed in the US. He would be able to order popular search engines such a Google and Yahoo to suspend access to their websites in times of national emergency.

Other US based Internet service providers as well as broadband providers would also come under his control in times of a 'cybersecurity emergency.' Any company that failed to comply would be subject to huge fines.”
Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1287695/Obama-given-right-shut-internet-kill-switch.html#ixzz1JHLbaqF3

This is old news. This is what the left wants. It is no secret. The fact that this "kill switch" was proposed to be given to the President demonstrates that something is very wrong.  He seeks to do whatever he can to gain such power including circumventing congress by giving such “authority” to the unelected FCC bureaucrats who willingly cooperate with his agenda.

THAT is the reason why The CB Patriot Project was established. CB’s are not dependant upon the advanced technologies of the Internet and cellular phone towers. CB's CAN be used in the event those more recent technologies are removed - even if the ELECTRICAL POWER GRID goes down. CB's utilize the free airwaves and can be run on batteries, including car batteries.

Click Here to proceed to the detailed plan.  I hope that you will join the project.

Sincerely,

Scott Ryan

Suppose Obama WAS born in Kenya; then what?

- Scott Ryan

Barack Obama sent top advisor David Plouffe onto ABC's "This Week" to attempt to discredit Donald Trump on the matter of Obama's fight to avoid furnishing an actual birth certificate.





As my friend and scholar I.M. Kane at The Millstone Diaries recently wrote, “Trump knows that he could end up king or kingmaker if he succeeds in exposing the biggest fraud ever perpetuated on the people of the United States.”


I agree 100 percent and would like to add that even if Obama was born in the United States of America, I believe he is –still- the biggest fraud ever perpetrated against the United States by virtue of his conning millions of Dance with the Stars/American Idol consumed droids into believing that he is anything less than a radical communist.


Going back to the disturbing question of The Saboteur’s origins, Trump raises a valid point. It is surreal how he can spend millions of dollars to avoid furnishing this document. Seriously, in ANY CASE, shouldn’t the burden of proof (of origin) be on the person running for the highest position of the most powerful nation in the history of the world? It is beyond Orwellian that tens of millions of people will hand a virtual stranger the key to our entire nuclear arsenal and the most formidable military on the planet without even VERIFYING who the hell he is. That’s a friggin “BEAM ME UP SCOTTY” if I ever heard one and raises the question regarding the existence intelligent life here on this planet, at least in the blue states.

Ask anyone of the droids who voted for him and I GUARANTEE you that 99.9% of them have no idea of the fact that Barack Hussein Obama is America’s first cocaine snorting (or crack smoking) President (by his own surreptitiously published auto-biography), not that most of these degenerates would necessarily care. When I think about it, as the birthplace qualification –has been in our constitution from the beginning and all, is it really that audacious to expect that maybe -whoever- wins a presidential primary should AUTOMATICALLY be required to furnish an ORIGINAL or at least an AUTHENTIC birth certificate? It’s not like we changed our Presidents every quarter for the past 235 years. I think we can make that extra effort.

The fact that “the administration” or should I say “the incessant campaign” sends us guys like that hatchet man on Sunday to make the discrediting rounds on his behalf speaks volumes. This smarmy character David Plouffe reminds me of “Harry Ellis” on the old Die Hard movie (with Bruce Willis). He typifies the type of Chicago style political hack that personifies the Saboteur's administration.




This should be taken seriously. If it should be determined at some point that Obama was born in Kenya and knowingly conspired against the people and the constitution of the United States of America - for all of the legislation promulgated and lawsuits having to be waged that never would have otherwise occurred, he should beyond a shadow of a doubt stand trial for treason.  If convicted, he should suffer the concomitant penalty that always accompanies the crime of treason.

Impeachment would be entirely inadequate for such a crime. And since Obama likes by some stretch to link himself and everything he does to Abraham Lincoln, if convicted, perhaps as a tribute his sentence could be carried out at Fort Mcnair - the site where the penalty of conspiracy was carried out against those convicted as conspirators in President Lincoln’s assassination.



Fort McNair (Lincoln assassination conspirators)

Everything should be conducted by the rule of law and an authentic birth certificate should be subpoenaed.

John Boehner Must Go
by Scott Ryan
What I’m hearing all over the news is that the “leaders” of the Democrat Party are claiming victory and the Republican Party “leaders” are claiming victory in last week’s short term budget battle.

The fact is that they are both right. They both won. The only losers in this deal are the American people and the Republic for which we stand.

In the short run it was a great achievement for ambitious politicians who fantasize about their place in history. In the long run it will not matter what they did because the way things are going, someone else, Communist China most likely, will be writing the history books; so posterity will scarcely know who they were.

I hear some of the posers on the right as they attempt to put some lipstick on this pig but the more I ruminate on the matter, the more disgusted I become.

I’m tired of being nice. There’s no time for diplomacy.

$38 Billion is significantly less than the $61 Billion target. This amounts to ONE WEEK'S worth of deficit spending.

We're supposed to cut TRILLIONS in order to save this nation from bankruptcy? That notion would be laughable if it were not so tragic.

It is unlikely these three branches of government will cut a single trillion, much less $6 Trillion when the demagogues come out and accuse them of "politicizing" with every attempt.

The White House predicts that the deficit will hit a record $1.6 trillion this year. Combined with the fact that they couldn't even come close to the diminutive target of $61 billion in cuts tells me that rounds 3, 4, 5 & 6 of "quantitative easing" are coming as the Federal Reserve may soon be the only buyer of US Treasuries left as foreign creditors see that these louses have no capacity to reign in this debt.

In light of recent exposés proving the illicit deception of “Planned Parenthood”, there has NEVER been a more auspicious moment in contemporary history to end the odious practice of FORCING American Taxpayers to pay for infanticide. For what compromise did they settle? They have the nerve to come back to their constituents on Saturday and tell us that their achievement was an agreement from the Democrats that they would have a separate measure upon which they would vote to defund Planned Parenthood, knowing they would lose without the leverage they had in this budget. The supposed “victory” would be in the fact that Democrats would then have to “go on record” as supporting this funding! That is utterly contemptible as it is useless. These people are ALREADY on record as supporting it. In fact, they CAMPAIGN on the very notion.

God has given us the chance to destroy these government subsidized alters to Molech, a chance to make a major surge against the abomination and scourge of this nation. And what did John Boehner do? Boehner had victory right in his site and he froze. If we can't abrogate the public funding of this abortion mill at such a time as this, we might as well pack our bags and head for the bunker.


I cautiously supported John Boehner for the first few months as House Speaker and even empathized when he cried in the November elections. I thought his emotions might have been a culmination of patriotism but now I think they were more like the fermentations of the many politicians who preceded him, more about his own achievements as he alluded to his humble beginnings as a waiter at his family tavern in Ohio. It seems the skepticisms of conservatives have been confirmed and as far as I’m concerned, we would be better served by Mr. Boehner if he were to return to his family tavern in Ohio then to serve one more day as House Speaker.

Once more, just like old times, the public servants have put aside their partisan differences, moved on from their treachery and kicked back in comfort as they enjoy themselves at The Masters golf tournament in Augusta, courtesy of their lobbyist patrons - while we the people are once again left to go back to our daily jobs so that we may “service” these miscreants and hope they afford us enough of the crumbs to feed our families.

We the people worked too damned hard this past year to quell the assaults of Obama, Reed & Pelosi. Aside from maybe Senator Jim DeMint, most of these reps did nothing to get elected that compares with the work of the grassroots, patriotic citizenry. WE are the ones who did all of the work, the real public service to win those elections and to change the status quo. What we have witnessed is the fact that the GOP purging has not yet been completed. What we have seen is evidence that we have NO TIME to allow such pansies to continue for one day. I urge you in the reading of this post to get your congressman on the phone this week and make sure they know that if they do not get Boehner out of the speakership now, they will be gone themselves within the next two years. They elect the House Speaker but they must know that WE in effect elect the House Speaker. We need competence and we need it now. We KNOW who the authentic leaders of this party are. Tell your congressman to back Col. Allen West or someone with his fortitude for House Speaker or be gone.

The only way this government will avoid bankruptcy is if the Senate is taken away from Harry Reid and the GOP achieves a super majority to over-ride the Saboteur's veto. But even then, a super majority would only work if the GOP gives leadership to patriotic men and women who have the guts to stand up to the demagoguery that invariably ensues when the sacrament of abortion funding and the avarice for power is challenged.

Regardless of how brisk US Treasury auctions might have been in the last year, the US Government cannot afford to pay the interest on our debt even with interest rates at historic lows. The current acceleration of inflation will cause a demand for higher interest rates from the market. If the federal government has no choice but to keep interest rates at these levels, soon enough the Federal Reserve might be the only buyer left to finance our own debt as the Treasury faces the possibility of "failed auctions".

A catastrophic selloff in Treasuries will come like a cattle stampede, forcing the government to compete with its own instruments trading in the secondary market at much higher levels. Last years auctions mean nothing. When this happens, last week means nothing. There is no time for etiquette and no time for politicians who come running out of the capitol with their tails between their legs claiming “victory”.

It is time to fulfill Col. Allen West’s request to Nancy Pelosi - and Mr. Boehner, “Give me that Damn gavel”.  It is TIME.  It is time for a real leader in the house who understands that "what we do here echos in eternity".  See this video and absorb a demonstration of what a real leader looks like.

Trump's Refreshing Candor
by Scott Ryan

I'm a long way away from supporting Donald Trump for President but I can honestly say that as of the past few weeks, he may have moved into the second or third position for me.  My friend I.M. Kane at The Millstone Diaries published a nice piece today on Donald Trump’s resolve regarding the dubious origins of the Saboteur in Chief.

When viewed in the aggregate, the circumstances make it seem more far fetched that Obama -isn’t- covering something up.

Consider the bizarre behavior by The Saboteur himself, the media talking points campaign on the subject, the disdainful “birther” designation assigned to those who dare bring up the subject.

Consider his concealment of his own academic records (which very well may reveal something of his origin). Why would he conceal these?

Consider the fact that nobody bothered to VERIFY this CONSTITUTIONAL requirement - of a man who was the LEAST KNOWN Presidential candidate in the history of the nation. That alone is most disturbing of all in my opinion.

What did we know about him?  The few things we DID know about him is that his closest friends and confidants are radical communists and domestic terrorists.  We knew that his Pastor of 20 years is a raving lunatic who hates America and celebrated the 9/11 attacks on this country with the rest of the world's terrorists.

We knew what he strategically proffered to us in his memoirs, which he wrote years before ever accomplishing a damned thing. In an era when marijuana inhalation or a 30 year old DUI was heretofore deemed sufficient grounds to end a political career, he cleverly inoculated himself by casually mentioning his COCAINE "experimentation" in one of his books, years in advance, to give his lap-dogs in the media an excuse not to even mention it.

They never even bothered to ask him what type of cocaine he used (crack or the snorting variety?). They never asked him to define “experimenting” i.e. how many times or for how many years did he “experiment”? When was the last time? Journalist to this day, amazingly, have never even found it NOTEWORTHY that we elected America’s FIRST cocaine snorting or crack smoking President.

So should one be considered “fringe” because he or she wouldn’t be surprised if this deluded nation would allow such a monumental fraud to take place in electing this man President without asking for a birth certificate? Should we be surprised that an orgasmic media too busy fawning over him would let such a basic requirement go unchecked or even questioned? They had time to probe him about his genetic relation to Brad Pitt, which is so far down the DNA chain that the same standards show us all to be cousins of Brad Pitt, Sir Laurence Olivier or anyone else you so choose.

Trump is doing the nation a great service. I enjoyed his interview on Bill O’Reilly’s show Wednesday night but even better was his monologue on Fox & Friends the day before, probably because the pompous O’Reilly wasn’t there to interrupt Trump’s compelling train of reasoning.
Check out the interview on Fox & Friends:

The Democrat's idea of Hope, Change and a New Kind of Politics
by Scott Ryan

The Democrat unions have given us a clear view of what defines them.  All any sensible person needs to see is the video of these protestors to rightly conclude they are savages. Their behavior speaks volumes. There are jobless people hurting all over the country and these cretins are acting like their plight is that of early 20th century Russian peasants because they may have to pay a small percentage of their health benefits instead of the tax payer paying all of it.


They represent the lowest common denominator society has to offer and they deserve to lose their jobs and I frankly wish they would. It is mortifying to think that some people bus their beloved children off to be violated by people like this every day.

This and of course the recent death threats now being served to the Governor and legislators really buttresses the notion that the governors are not going far enough. This is concrete proof that the state legislators should just abolish the public schools, a primitive vehicle of education, the abolition of which is long overdue.  Then we can leave the teachers union alone as they negotiate all they want for jobs at schools that no longer exist. Let the good teachers get jobs at private schools of all kinds.
Following is a video I found on YouTube narrated by a young lady who did a fine job explaining her personal experience at the Wisconsin capital. It’s titled “Classy moments from the union rally”, not exactly broadcast quality but it is quite amusing; so I would recommend taking the time to view this piece.

I do not specialize in book reviews but as I'm about to read this one again, I'm posting this one I wrote on a fabulous book in case anyone is looking for their next great read:

General and Madame de Lafayette: Partners in Liberty's Cause in the American and French RevolutionsGeneral and Madame de Lafayette: Partners in Liberty's Cause in the American and French Revolutions by Jason Lane


My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This is an outstanding book. I devoured it about 3-4 years ago and plan to read it again soon. It gives valuable insight into some of our founding fathers (from a different vantage point) and on the French Revolution. Lafayette is one of the great heroes of the American Revolution.



Unlike many of his time, he was on the RIGHT side of history in both causes like Adams and Hamilton.


There is a good reason why America has more towns, counties, streets, schools and battleships named after Lafayette then anyone in American history. In light of the strand of “revolutions” taking place in the middle-east - not- founded on the principles that made the American Revolution the most successful in history, it would serve this generation well to get to know WHY that is.


This book juxtaposes the two revolutions and sheds valuable insight on what went wrong in a revolution minded society hostile to the notion of accountability to God. As murderous and bloody as it was, they had admirable intentions. It is a horrid thought of what will happen in a revolution run by mobs of people whose one common, fundamental belief is rooted in that of a “prophet” who built the entire religion on murder, rape and plunder, instructing that all MEN who refuse to convert to their religion should me murdered - and women and children castrated then enslaved. (See Africa and what is coming in Europe).

A "(Self-anointed) King's Speech" that will not be confused with the Oscar Nominee
by Scott Ryan

For the past couple weeks the media pundits have speculated ad nauseum about what the president’s State of The Union Speech would “mean” and how it would affect his poll numbers and future prospects.

I think last night’s speech was important because it made a lot of Americans realize, that the proverbial emperor has no clothes. This is the guy to whom exploited school children were forced to sing a song based upon the classic “Jesus loves the little Children” – which supplanted Jesus with praises of Obama and how he was “going to save us”.  This - is that same guy?

(I wouldn’t make this up. This is so disturbing to anyone with even a morsel of sense that it is hard to believe this wasn’t created as a burlesque of some fictitious character like Damien from “The Omen”. And it is one hell of an omen all-right. Look, it even has a picture of the Obama “O” behind the children, painted in a strangely disturbing manner. This painting is reminiscent of something you would expect to see on the side of a dilapidated building in Zimbabwe, paying tribute to the latest 3rd world dictator. I guess that was done to make him feel right at home during the campaign. To those scratching their heads about my choice of titles for this column, there is the REASON for my tie-in with the popular film "The King's Speech".  I have often said this guy may be our own personal “Last King of Scotland”.  Maybe there is something to that notion.)  See the video of exploited Obama singers:



And to make matters worse, he keeps haranguing us about how WE need to tone down the heated rhetoric. Heated rhetoric a.k.a. “hate” is of course defined by Obama and his media lap dogs as any speech that questions his agenda.

But let’s try not to forget that just a couple weeks before he made his speech in Tucson calling for a "new civility" - he had just made history by calling Republicans who oppose his Marxist health debacle - terrorist "hijackers". He verbally elaborated on the comparison; so there can be no explaining away his intent.

His intent is quite clear. It is to open old wounds, create new ones and incite as much dissension as possible while positioning himself as the righteous one in the face of anachy he is hell bent upon instigating.

Watch this trailer (based on a true story) and see if you detect similarities between the
1. communicative tactics   2. delusions 3. possible outcomes with narcissistic tyrants who do not get what they want:

Obama attempts to position himself as the second coming of Lincoln
by Scott Ryan

After witnessing the effrontery of Barack Obama against the states and our constitution, it is apparent this man has come here for the sole purpose of fomenting a civil war. From day one of his campaign he has made efforts to position himself as a parallel to Lincoln. From his campaign announcement in front of the Illinois state capitol where Lincoln served (with a Lincoln banner behind him), to his announcement of Biden as his running mate (in front of a Lincoln banner), from his quoting of Lincoln (in specious contexts) to his insistence upon swearing in on the same Bible upon which Lincoln was sworn in and even having the exact same MENUE as Lincoln’s inauguration.

The problem is that this man, if anything, is the Anti-Lincoln. Lincoln dogged Senator Douglas all over the state of Illinois, challenging Douglas to debate the KEY ISSUE upon which his REPUBLICAN Party was literally founded. That issue was the central question of whether a human being can rightfully be the PROPERTY of another human being. The central belief to the contrary is rooted in the same moral absolute that our Declaration of Independence invokes, which is that life and our inalienable rights are granted by God and no human tribunal has the right to encroach upon that of another. The same pillar that demanded the abolition of slavery is central to the Republican Party’s platform on abortion. Claiming the authority to abrogate this right for one group of human beings over another is to blasphemously make oneself out to be that one and only God Himself.

It wasn’t a coincidence that Barack Hussein Obama went of his way to try to link himself to Lincoln. His campaign was the most carefully produced and contrived of any in history by producers from Hollywood to indoctrinated school children singing songs of devotion as though right out of the handbook of the most notorious communist dictators in history. To view such exploitation of children is enough to make any decent person sick to their stomach.


So he worked diligently to position himself a Lincoln-esque messiah over the years while crafting the division, pitting Americans against one another at every opportunity. He attacks every sacred value that made America what it is. He defends a Muslim terrorist who murdered soldiers at Fort Hood. He defends the terrorists who want to build a mosque over-looking the area of the Twin Towers. He goes on a tour bowing to foreign dictators. He tells the Islamic world that America is NOT a Christian nation. He does everything he possibly can to bankrupt our country with Marxist programs like his healthcare and nationalization schemes. And most recently, to exploit the latest tragedy, he moved to have Internet IDs for every American through the U.S. Commerce Department.

He picks at wounds and provokes states into a slew of law suits as he forces anarchy within border-states, refusing to enforce the federal laws that encapsulate the very charter of the federal government itself.  Then he attacks such states for trying to enforce the federal laws that he encourages to be violated. Last, he works to sow discord in the US Military by working tirelessly to promote homosexuality within the ranks, giving commendation for sodomy and equating the “plight” of those enslaved to this perversion to that of the African slave who was afforded no autonomy over his or her destiny.

For such an imposter to attempt to equate himself to Abraham Lincoln is not a far cry from a metaphorical “abomination of desolation” (Rev 13).

If you read the New York Times from the years leading up to 1861, you will see the ferments surrounding the issue of slavery and state’s rights were very similar to those now. It it is only a matter of time before we see some kind of catalyst, some modern equivalent to our own modern day Harper’s Ferry. I envisioned that it would be an event that would transpire at any mosque built at the former site of the World Trade Center, as Americans will not likely tolerate such an egregious affront to their sensibilities and especially to the memory of those beloved who were murdered on September 11, 2001.

Whatever it may turn out to be, it is obvious that the bizarre circumstances in which this virtually unknown man came into power is so improbable given his lack of experience, recognition, Marxist and hateful mentors and colleagues. On top of all that, the fact that he shares the same name as the notorious rogue dictator we just removed and a world tribunal just executed makes it all the more surreal. I have previously written years ago that the improbability of all of this happening is so high that it demonstrates the fact that this can be nothing less than spiritual.

He is much like Leland Gaunt of the film Needful Things. The charming Gaunt, a man the community knows nothing about comes to the small town of “Castlerock” and opens a store. He has something for everyone. The price is of course corruption and chaos and it leads to the people to unspeakable violence. This man caters to, to turn around the phrase used by Lincoln, the FALLEN angels of our nature.

Watch the trailers for the film and tell me if you don’t see a parallel:


Nevertheless, all this combined with the chaos to come when select leftist states like California and New York go bankrupt as the new congress refuses them the bailouts to which tehy fancy temselves entitled, mark my words; the state in which you live and the rectitude of the legislature and Governor thereof is going to soon be more important than any time in modern history.For this reason, based upon recent elections, I’m glad to be in Florida.

Obama Historians keep the Lincoln comparison's coming

by Scott RyanOn the night of Barack Obama’s rally in Tucson, I wrote a column (below) titled “Obama attempts to position himself as the second coming of Lincoln”. The very next day a columnist at Bigthink.com wrote a piece titled “Is Obama Lincoln?” in which she cited “historian” Gary Willis who has made several preposterous comparisons between the two presidents.

At The NY Review of Books, Willis propounded the notion that Obama and Lincoln both had to distance themselves from “embarrassing associations”. Willis apparently sees uncanny similarity between the two because Lincoln (being anti-slavery) had to distance himself from the crazy John Brown; while Obama had to distance himself from Reverend Jeremiah Wright!

Think about this. Obama sat with his family - in that lunatic’s “church” for 20 years, while becoming part of Wright’s inner-circle and we are supposed to see similarity between that appalling fact and Lincoln having a morsel of common ground with John Brown simply because Brown too was against slavery.

That makes as much sense as tying him to say, Ted Bundy, because they both loved Lasagna. This guy appears to have a serious problem with correlations. But that is what the left do so skillfully. They artfully tie innocent people who stand in the way of their leftist agenda - to evil or ignoble people with whom they themselves have far more in common.

It is pure melodrama to make such a comparison and substantially detracts from any credibility the author might have once maintained.

When one looks at the morality of Abraham Lincoln, the two could not be more diametrically opposed (which I elucidate in my previous column).

Unlike Obama, Lincoln didn’t enter office already ruling over a global cult of personality.

There were no Hollywood productions, no sycophant media devotees proclaiming orgasmic sensations from the sound of his voice.

Lincoln had no Child Indoctrination Coordinator producing music videos featuring exploited children singing hymns of how Obama is going to change the world. Lincoln wasn’t ushered in by an Oprah Winfrey of that day on a rock concert stage with Greek columns and alter.

Lincoln made some good impressions on select people but he narrowly won the presidency as a third party candidate and his victory was highly improbable.Most importantly - Lincoln didn’t –want- civil war and tried to avoid it at all costs. Barack Obama has done essentially nothing except make speeches and attempt to –incite- disunion so that delusional acolytes can make absurd comparisons to himself and great men like Lincoln.

The Future Lead Dog of the Axis of Evil
by Scott Ryan

Not too many "experts" are going to be willing to go as far as I with that title but they will come around in a few years.  The rogue islamic nations of the world have a friend in China (and Russia) but that's another column.  First they have some triumphs they must achieve in the financial world and they are well on course to that end.  A commercial was featured today on Special Report with Bret Baier that was amazingly similar in substance to the opening of a column I wrote in February of 2010. The commercial was well produced and was exactly the scenario I had in mind; so I am featuring it here at TableOfWisdom followed by the original column.  Much of what was written is unfortunately coming to fruition, especially in light of an enormously significant story reported just a few days ago.

The head of the Shanghai Gold Exchange told a conference there that Chinese imports of gold for 2010 through October were 209.7 tonnes, compared to 45 tonnes for the whole of 2009. This is a bombshell…” –Marketwatch.com


The commercial begins in a futuristic classroom in Beijing, China and the teacher is lecturing on the topic “Why do great nations fail?” The commercial speaks for itself so without further ado…


My column from last February begins with that very premise and continues the lecture that the commercial did not have time to elucidate. So without further ado, let’s take a trip back to February, 2010:

The Most Deadly Platitude of the 21st Century
by MrArbitrage
Independent, time-stamped source http://ragingdebate.com/economy/the-most-deadly-platitude-of-the-21st-century-1 (originally featured at TableofWisdom.com)

"While watching Special Report on Fox News this evening I heard panelist Charles Krauthammer make a naïve, yet common statement regarding our strategic position with China.

In regard to the China situation, there exists a false sense of leverage and invincibility by Americans that is very dangerous and I feel it is worthy of a column. I like to view each day through the lens of history. I’m not talking about the obvious need to look to -past –history. I like to look at us –today- through the perspective of future generations sitting in their classrooms, talking about the obvious warning signs that led to the destruction of the United States of America (the way we used to do with Rome) and what could have been done had the people not fallen asleep, become too preoccupied with themselves and used some common sense. We need to soberly view it this way in order to avoid having it become a reality.

What we are seeing happen with the US and China is a subject about which I have been warning since we granted China “Most Favored Nation Status” and “Permanent Normal Trading Relations” This is the type of ineptitude and short sightedness the federal government has in recent years been providing and it arguably leads to most of our self-induced national crises.

Charles Krauthammer mitigated the severity of the situation by making the statement so often used as a rationalization for gambling with our national security (all so some corporations could make a few quick bucks to keep up with the rigorous demands of shareholders). Remember the story of Noah? All the people ridiculed and mocked him for building this great boat, especially when they had never seen rain. As the rain finally started coming down, they were still laughing a bit - but suddenly there was a bit of uneasiness in their voices. That reminds me of how the “national conversation” seems to be going these days. Their disdainful cry of “protectionist” and “isolationist” seem to be slightly abating as they grudgingly cover the obvious signs that something isn’t quite right with their "friend".

Krauthammer was talking about how China is making demands to the United States. (One is that Obama is not to visit the Dalai Lama but there have been many recent tensions with China that will escalate.) He said spoke about the possibility of the Chinese dumping dollars as a reprimand for our approval of new arms sales to Taiwan. His critical mistake is the same assumption that he and all of our reckless policy makers have long made while undermining our sovereignty to this rabid dog. He thinks that the Chinese are just flexing their muscle but they will not follow through because as he stated “they are as dependent on us as we are upon them”.

As I use my technique of viewing today through the eyes of a future history class on Fallen Nations and Empires, I see that specific statement as the most deadly platitude of the 21st century. The lethal assumption is that if China continues to sell down the dollar and dump their treasuries - since they have such enormous exposure to treasuries - they would be hurting themselves as much as they would be hurting us. Concluding that “they would never do it” based upon that notion is a terrible miscalculation by people who do not know or understand their enemy. Make no mistake, communism –is- our enemy.

Not only do they underestimate the barbarism of their communist enemy (whom many of these incompetents deem to be our “friends” or “partners”), they also show a lack of understanding of economics and hedging strategies.

Two KEY POINTS of gross negligence:

1. They underestimate the barbarism of our adversary as they are thinking from the perspective of traditional American leaders, with American values. Americans love freedom and get to elect our government. We used to elect people to represent us who rejected communism and its religion atheism. Therefore, our representatives had to represent our values and to some degree, although much less these days, we elected people who shared the values in our Declaration that we are created equal and that we had inalienable RIGHTS, which came from our Creator. God fearing representatives were extensions of ourselves, therefore, they would abhor the brutal tactics necessary to implement communism and would make policy decisions that would not hurt the people who put them there. They sometimes fell short but most would not deliberately hurt their constituents.

Communists don’t have constituents and their people do not have guns. Communists come to power by doing horrible things to people against their will. They do not care about their slaves, nor do they have to. Their god Friedrich Nietzsche taught them that the people exist for the purpose of functioning as a scaffold, to prop up the superior (themselves). When man is reduced to these terms, the maniacs in charge will do anything to them that they see fit. Just in 1996, before we propped them up, the Chinese were so desperate - a congressional report notified us that China was then selling the organs of their dissident prisoners on the black market – so they could finance the red army! That’s not very compassionate.

2. A “death blow” to the United States will not have the same effect on them as our naïve policy makers have long maintained because China has been positioning itself with appropriate –HEDGES- that will skyrocket upon the death of the dollar and the US credit rating. In fact, the more they lose on their sizable treasury investment, the more they will make in their gold and other commodity investments. Who do you think has been buying them up over the past year? China (and India) see what is coming.

China played this thing brilliantly. They have been sucking foreign dupe money by the trillions to do what their own economic system could NOT do without suckers like us. Without us, their regimes would implode like the Soviet regime. They were smart to con us by dangling a billion potential customers to green corporate executives who would in turn hire lobbyists to sell out our national security and sovereignty in order to keep the requisite EPS growth.

Do you really think they are worried about hurting a few of “their people” by dealing a death blow to the United States? They think it would be only temporary because after all, communists always maintain that “it didn’t work last time because it wasn’t done right.” They believe that once they take down the USA, the utopian fantasy will finally work.

Chinese companies have “gone western” temporarily loosening the reigns to suck capital to finance red army so the regime can nationalize them later, or at least take 70% of their cash flow if they have any. Why not? The west is full of suckers who think regime changed and communism is now good.

They will export enough fuzzy math to keep their Ponzi going long enough for them to rebuild the Red Army from foreign investment. If they have no compunction about selling you toys with poison paint for your toddlers and toxic drywall, just think about their accounting standards.

This willful ignorance about the evil of this communist regime is a disgrace that will long stain our country and may ultimately lead to our financial demise.

What we are seeing in our policy toward China, giving MFN and permanent normal trading relations status to these barbarians is just a glaring history lesson in the making. The only problem is that the only thing we learn from history is that we –never- learn from history.

In each bubble after the tech bubble of the 90’s we say to ourselves “How did we not LEARN from the last bubble. How did we miss the signs?” During those bubbles I gave advance warning (see http://www.tableofwisdom.com/p/my-track-record.html ) as there were obvious warning signs preceding the debacles. For example, during the real estate bubble it was obvious that credit was far too loose. People were getting mortgages without income verification or even JOBS for that matter.

When hearing these ridiculous stories about anyone and everyone being able to get mortgages – even several mortgages – people should have asked themselves the question of “what happened to generally accepted underwriting standards?” and “if it is this easy to create prosperity for all, why haven’t banks been doing this for decades?” It kind of begs the question doesn’t it? Did people really think that today’s underwriters by lending hundreds of thousands of dollars to anyone with a pulse had discovered something that never occurred to the bankers of centuries past?

What was amazing was how we went from the strict underwriting principles to virtually zero underwriting principles in such a short time period. It happens because people have a propensity to get caught up in their emotions and their greed regardless of how educated or supposedly “sophisticated” they may be. There is something about the madness of crowds that gives people a false sense of security as long as the majority opinion is on their side – and it makes them do astoundingly destructive things, over and over and over again.

I have been harping on this China foolishness for years, going back to Clinton, Bush through Obama. I have enlarged upon all of the reasons why getting in bed with a Communist country is a bad idea and somewhat analogous to a legitimate accountant knowingly taking a mafia Don as a client. It is short-sighted and will likely end badly, even deadly.

Just as the coming real estate/banking debacle should have been obvious through the glaring abandonment of basic, historical underwriting standards, so too should the coming China debacle be obvious by anyone who remembers the caution exercised by previous generations toward communists.

I am 39 years old but I clearly remember the days when the leaders of most multinational corporations would not invest serious capital in communist countries like China because before the changing of the guard in corporate America, people like my grandfather understood the risks of committing serious money to building infrastructure within a country run by a communist dictatorship. Executives at US corporations today have severely breached their fiduciary responsibility to shareholders by risking billions of dollars of shareholder equity into a precarious situation like China.

These irresponsible corporate and governmental “leaders” have just like the bankers, fallen for the irresistible temptation of quick and easy riches without thought or regard to the potential consequences should we at some time find ourselves in a hostile relationship with China.

Ask yourself the question WHY. WHY would China still want to suppress citizens from being able to “Google” PRO-DEMOCRACY materials? What are they afraid of? Haven’t we changed the worldview of the Communist regime now that we have “traded them into prosperity”? That’s what our elected swindlers told us would happen if we gave the MFN and Permanent Normal Trading Relationship. Of course my tongue is firmly ensconced in my cheek. Communist dictators don’t change because you inject capital into their financially desperate government in the name of “growth”. Subsequently, if it works so well, why haven’t we been “trading Cuba into prosperity”? I smell a treasonous rat."

There are many pundits finally beginning see what is coming.  You can listen to Republicans like Krauthammer and Rove who advocate compromise with the left until the wall come crashing down before they sound the alarms or you can  read TableOfWisdom.com and get the warnings 10 years before the rest:

Sample: August 30, 2001, written the following WARNING regarding our China trade policy - http://boards.fool.com/message.asp?source=isesitlnk0000001&mid=17251493&mrr=0.50

"It's only COMMON SENSE that trading with communist regimes – LIKE CHINA, will mostly STRENGTHEN the COMMUNIST REGIME. There is indeed a REASON why they call it COMMUNISM! In the Communist system, MOST of the money is directly or indirectly TAKEN from the people.  We can trade all we want with the cronies in China, but all it's going to do is further finance China's evil agenda. China in my book is the "lead dog" on the “axis of evil”. Not only is “free trade” going to finance communism, we are also going to give them leverage that will eventually put us at their mercy. The reason is because American businesses, which now covet that potential market, in the aggregate are going to have to increase capacity by investing trillions of dollars to be able to meet the enormous demand of a billion people. Once they have the capacity, our economy will be at their mercy. China can hold that trade over our heads to get what they want because if they were to cut us off, the loss of earnings, which will be necessary to offset the prodigious investment, would be DEVESTATING to our stock market, our jobs and our overall economy.Trade with China is nothing more than fool's gold. This is one case where big business truly does have the majority of our politicos in their pockets. I believe that placating China with MFN and Permanent Normal Trading Status in my belief is the most egregious blunder of our times.I am a Conservative before I am a Republican and because of that important distinction I must bring attention to a gross contradiction made by our President yesterday. I write this not out of acrimony toward President Bush, for whom I voted in 2000. I write this because it is my prayer that he will come to recognize the hypocrisy of his statement regarding trade with Cuba when compared with China.If it were something petty, I wouldn't bother to write this; however..."

&  

"...I must say that we don't give away our liberty overnight; things go bad incrementally. I think China is laughing at us behind our backs. Go ahead and say I'm crazy now but let me go on record here and say that free trade with China, no matter how good they make it sound is a Trogan horse (on their part) and very specious."  - 8/30/2001
(days before our world and our beloved nation forever changed).

Cal & Nevada: The New Soddom & Gomorrah
by Scott Ryan

The November 2nd election was a tremendous victory for -most- of the country and in some ways it was quite REVEALING. The whole nation basically, except for two states, rejected the predator that was momentarily embraced by our unsuspecting children. The old adage that "history repeats itself" has been verified in many ways and what we saw last night is a clear identification by two states with ancient Sodom and Gomorrah. California is the capital of pornography and Vegas BOASTS in its national ad campaigns that it is a place to come and commit every abomination without any consequence.

It is going to be fascinating to watch California go bankrupt, state pensions and all. I say “fascinating” because yesterday’s AMERICAN victory means California will NOT get the federal bailout to which they feel entitled. The only thing the depraved voters of California proved yesterday is their stiff-necked obstinance.

As far as I’m concerned we can give them to Mexico and build a fence around them because that state is like arsenic to our nation. Let Mexico take Spielberg, Katzenberg, Reiner, Weinstein and the rest of the Hollywood “elite” along with their money. Sometimes you have to amputate to save a life.

To the decent Americans there in Cal and Nevada whose votes are constantly being canceled out, sell your possessions, flee Sodom and come to South Florida. We are a red state and yesterday became even better. About 10 years ago our legislature voted to name our state’s - turnpike - after the last great man to come from California, Ronald Wilson Reagan. Our exorcism was successful last night with the victory of Allen West over Ron Klein and we got rid of that embarrassment of a human being with the jet black dyed hair-plugs Alan Grayson.

I'm targeting Judeo/Christian conservatives. Why would a lefty want to leave Sodom?

Conservatives come here and we can live like civilized, decent, God fearing people and with "conservatives" gone, you people in the land of fruits & nuts can all legalize pot, heroine, crack and whatever else suits you.

Together we can make our red state the greatest in the union. You WILL NOT want to be in California as the state dies by suicide. It’s going to get ugly, very ugly when those pensions go bust and they start defaulting on their muni coupons. If your tent is pitched there, you better watch out.

To expect less than Rampant fraud from this Party of degenerates would be grossly Naive
by Scott Ryan

The media are saying now that the elections are underway, “it is already shaping up to be a long night.” – MarketWatch.com

What that means is that Democrats will demand recounts until they manufacture enough votes to take away a victory.

These are people devoid of a single morsel of ethics.  As in the case with that out right imposter Al Franken, they will take this country to civil war in order to steal power.

They have no remorse. They have no love for liberty. These people are power hungry, miserable narcissists who will gladly take down this country as they despise our very foundations.

I fully expect the Demagogue party to lie, cheat and steal as those traits are a confluence that points to their definition of virtue.

If you can get passed the stale platitudes that have been perpetuated for decades by the wealthy swindlers like John Edwards about the “have’s and the have-nots” it is as lucid and simple for anyone capable of discernment.

The left are against the notion that people should be allowed to work as hard as they want and to earn as much as they want by the sweat of their brow without being demonized and plundered by the rapacity of elected parasites who foment discord toward those who do not and cater to the base instincts of envy and slothfulness.

The Democrat Party is a party that holds firm to the dogma that human beings can be the property of other human beings. It is the crux of their sacrament of abortion which contends that baby is the –property- of the women in whom it resides. It was the same fallacious notion that perpetuated slavery and their twisted logic will naturally lead to euthanizing the infirm and the elderly as they come out on the short end of the Obama regime's new mathmatical equation.

All of their egregious policies stem from one disgraceful agenda and that is to feed on the discontent of those who made bad choices whether you’re talking about pitting people against those who prosper or creating “victims” out of those who were sexually promiscuous in the way long encouraged by the liberals who indoctrinate the masses through pop culture. The same group that enriches themselves while debauching the morals of our youth in Hollywood is the same Democrat Party that whispers “victim-hood” like the serpent to their impressionable ears.

Anyone with even a modicum of moral decency and intellectual honesty remaining must see that this party, the party of Planned Parenthood which destroys millions of innocent lives every year, the party of ravenous trial lawyers like John Edwards, the party of the ACLU that makes every attempt to destroy the free-exercise of the Christian religion, the party that of the militant homosexual agenda that is aggressively seeking to force acceptance of homosexual marriage and is fighting to FORCE churches to hire homosexual leaders and pastors and will charge your clergy with hate crimes if they resist, the party that is sowing chaos in our military to force open acceptance of sodomy and will discharge honorable and righteous officers for not giving approbation to sodomy, the party of a tyrannical, anti-American President who openly calls those patriotic Americans who dare disagree with him –"ENEMIES"- a term he won’t even use to describe Hamas or Al Qaeda.

If you are blithely guided by the notion that this is your father or grandfather’s Democrat Party of the past and are obstinately pulling that Democrat lever, you cannot separate yourself from the aforementioned agenda and you will some day have to give account for the destruction and immorality you have brought upon this nation.

To update a statement by Samuel Adams for the present ferments, ‘If ye love ENTITLEMENTS greater than liberty, the tranquility of IGNORANCE greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."

To expect less than Rampant fraud from this Party of degenerates would be grossly Naive but this time, unlike in Al Franke's election, we will not yield to their jihad against our Faith, our constitution and our sacred honor.  Choose you this day whom ye will Serve.

The Economic Jesters say we should Spend MORE to create Jobs
by Scott Ryan

Marketwatch.com featured a column on Friday titled "How Washington could create jobs". It was full of the usual Keynesian nonsense and of course advanced the preposterous notion that “ECONOMISTS SAY there could be room for more jobs programs if lawmakers allow cuts to be made elsewhere…”


“ECONOMISTS SAY"???

Why should we care what “economists” say? We should try using our own common sense for a "change". These useless economists said the last so called stimulus would save us. They had economists telling us how Husse-Pelosi-Reedcare was going to save us and balance the budget.

These economists are like jesters in the kings court and the king is a 3rd world would-be tyrant.

Wouldn’t it be nice if these elected scoundrels stopped pretending that our founding fathers created the federal government to “create jobs”?

Anyone can create jobs. You can go outside and burn down a building or blow up a car and create jobs. Al Qaeda creates jobs all the time.

Obviously, those jobs are not the good kind of jobs, nor are the government jobs.

If they stop usurping and doing things the federal government was not chartered to do, if they stop being an albatross on the American people, jobs will be created by the people, not the parasites.

Is it coincidence that in this nation, with all of the hundreds of billions spent on education, the scoundrels make no attempt to implement financial education into the public school curriculum? If people understood finance they wouldn’t vote for their own plunder.

I didn’t intend that to be construed as a call for public education spending. I just wanted to point out how odd it is that for all the money they spend, it’s interesting how they don’t want any to go toward financial education.

Since the 90’s I have been emphasizing the fact that we no longer need public schools. Public schools are a failure and should only exist if they can compete with private schools on quality and cost. People should have absolute school choice and not be coerced pay for public schools. They are more like juvenile detention centers.

These parasites capitalize on ignorance. They depend on it. They thrive on it. Ignorance has helped to make the U.S. Government into the largest employer in the United States. That is egregious.

America isn’t the government. America is its constitution and its citizens. Wake up my fellow citizens; the so-called “financial reform bill” was named Dodd-Frank, after the two biggest perpetrators of financial fraud in the history of government for God’s sake.

Throw these thieves out. It is literally now or never.

Juan Williams got what he deserved
by Scott Ryan

Yes, Juan Williams got canned by NPR.  Yes it was outrageous and unjust.


My take is going to be short and sweet.


It is poetic justice to see a liberal, who has spent his life fighting to inflict left winged idiocy on the REST OF US - it is JUSTICE to see the same idiocy used against him.


I'm not going to follow the easy path of expressing sympathy for this guy as they are doing on Fox, which awarded Williams with an undeserved, $2 million dollar reward . I'm not subscribing to the prosaic "he may be a liberal but he's our liberal" nonsense.  

Yes IT WAS UNJUST and ludicrous what NPR did to Juan.  But Juan has devoted his life to the cause of putting the screws to US and he needs to get a good taste of what he's been cooking all these years. 

Until Juan does a 180 and renounces his party and his life's work, what Juan has been insisting is good for the gander, should be good for the goose.  Taste it, like it or RENOUNCE it - because this is the defining example of irrational, illogical, pc leftism.  

That sympathetic narrative is too trite for me to digest. He doesn’t -deserve- to be rewarded with a BETTER contract simply because he was victimized by the EXACT ideology he has devoted his career to spreading.That ideology has virtually destroyed this country. No, I REFUSE to embrace this intellectual banality the way they are trying to play it. That’s about RATINGS for Fox and is not the argument, the approach nor the train of reasoning that best serves this country. The enemy of my enemy is –still- my enemy when both factions represent Marxism.


To elevate Williams is an injustice because most of - US- don’t get to reap REWARDS for damaging the country.  Yes, defund NPR.  I've been saying that for decades.  That doesn't mean Juan should be given a larger platform to spread his errors.

“Juan brings “balance” to the debate”??? Well, excuse me but I believe what we call “conservative” is TRUTH. I do not believe that peppering truth with moderate dosages of idiocy represents “balance”. Why in the HELL do we feel it obligatory to “balance” TRUTH with lies???



If we actually BELIEVE these self evident truths, how could we dare contend that diluting it with error represents BALANCE?


Mark my words, this same group of pundits force feeding this crap to us tonight are the same people who are going to be cramming Mitt Romney down our throats in 2012 while they distort and villify the reputations of those who oppose that contemptible RINO just as Fox did in 2008.

There's Only One Architect Conservatives Trust (and it isn't Karl Rove)

I remember when I moved to Palm Beach County, Florida back in 1996. I soon started attending REC meetings (Republican Executive Committee of PB County) and got involved in politics later by hosting talk radio.

It didn’t take me a long time to get to know about our popular star Congressman Mark Foley. I soon discovered that his proclivities were widely rumored among Republicans within the party. Despite them knowing about his character flaws and despite his clear support for abortion, he received overwhelming support from the party establishment because “ that seat was too important to risk by replacing a sure thing”.

This was an egregious compromise and a textbook example of what brought down our party. It was this mentality that permeated our party, our willingness to support candidates who directly defied the very principles upon which the Republican Party was founded just so we could “win” a majority that proved to be useless. We ended up with a severely diluted majority that was more concerned with appeasing Democrats and winning the approval of a liberal media that would never be placated in the first place.

These liberal “Republicans” would work tirelessly to subvert any attempt for our so-called majority to implement the slightest morsel of a conservative agenda - often led by Senator John McCain in instances like the infamous “gang of 14” - .

We of course lost our majority in the House and Senate largely due to the very compromise embodied in Mark Foley as his escapades were unveiled before the world two weeks before a national election. We had every chance to replace this guy long before that election but the party establishment in all their sagacity found him to be quite palatable to their strategy.

Did we learn our lesson from Foley?

Even now we are at a place where we have so-called Republicans doing everything they can to undermine our much needed cleansing by opposing a conservative senatorial candidate in Delaware while supporting a liberal “Republican” senatorial candidate instead.
So against all odds she annihilated the establishment candidate in the primary to the chagrin of Karl Rove and other party leaders so what did they do? They initially came out and stated that they were not going to support her in the general election!



This is the problem. These people have little to no faith and if we were to listen to them we would go right back to Egypt (metaphorically speaking) despite the miracles we have thus far seen. We would continue right on with trillion dollar bailouts of banks, autos and unions with or without a Republican majority if we were to win it back with a collection of compromisers like we have heretofore had.

These people are like the man who dogged Moses every step of the way after all of the clear evidence that God was delivering them out of the slavery of the Pharaoh. “At least we had three square meals when we were slaves in Egypt; better to be a slave in Egypt than to die in the wilderness” they would NO DOUBT say.

Despite Arizona’s appalling contribution to the senatorial pool, we CAN take back this country from the America loathing liberals. We must and we WILL if as Abraham Lincoln said we labor to be on God’s side. The party establishment along with the left may mock this very notion of a sovereign God who appoints the kings of the Earth but we the people must humble ourselves, pray and turn from our wicked ways.

Those who think that THEY must win this battle by their own might and their political prowess must not be heeded. They must take a back seat as we ask God to go BEFORE us.

That reminds me of a study in which I have participated that points out that since God is the greatest good, He sets out to work all things for His own glory; if we seek to find freedom for our own glory, we are at cross-purposes with God. He will not share His glory with another (Isaiah 48:11). 11 For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. How can I let myself be defamed? I will not yield my glory to another.

It is not the genius of any “architect” that will win this war for our freedom. Remember, it was under the administration of the “architect” that the bailouts and cries for “amnesty” began.
As the aforementioned study elucidated, the proper motive (seeking God's glory) will ensure our success. God Himself comes to our aid, so that He will be glorified.
“Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us,But to Your name give glory,Because of Your mercy,Because of Your truth.” Psalm 115:1

And the LORD said to Gideon, 'The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel claim glory for itself against Me, saying, 'My own hand has saved me.'" Judges 7:2

Perhaps THAT is why we have been temporarily given over to the hands of the enemy. For the past decade we were trying to win the battle by our own might. As the latter scripture verse indicates, God actually planned to lead His people to victory but he told Gideon to reduce the size of their army. It was too BIG! He wanted them to KNOW that it was -He- who would go before them and give them the victory.

By compromising our integrity and strategically nominating people who were against our very purposes, we were becoming the very thing we superficially opposed. I thank God for the new leaders whom He is raising up like the venerable Senator from South Carolina, Jim DeMint, who has been working diligently in support of conservative candidates including Christine O’Donnell. I highly recommend supporting his conservative candidates fund in lieu of funding for the RNC.

The RNC may not want to support real conservatives but we do not need them anyway. We have seen their deeds as they have squandered our hard earned dollars on Lear jets and strip clubs for their elite - while not having the funds for candidates like O’Donnell.

We are now seeing the efficiencies at work brought on by the Internet as conservatives around this great nation are funding fellow conservatives in pivotal races outside their own states. This high speed and efficient means of communication is rendering the concept of prodigal organizations like the RNC invalid.

I would rather give my money through the websites of individual candidates or to organizations like Jim DeMint’s than to the RNC thank you very much.

Remember, we have won nothing if we relish our victories but forget the cause to which we are owing. Let us not squander our final chance to set things right. There can be no 3rd chance.

There’s something about Arizona
By MrArbitrage

I’m receiving a great deal of positive emails from various sources like one sent today from Newsmax.com titled: Armey: Tea Party Movement Will Revolutionize GOP
http://www.newsmax.com/InsideCover/dickarmeyteaparty/2010/08/21/id/368077?s=al&promo_code=A929-1

That sounds great but it is difficult to get excited when one of the most contemptible senators in modern GOP history is presumably coasting into the nomination for another 6 year senate term.

It seems as though Arizonans enjoy being in the lime-light regardless of the reason. It doesn’t matter that their so-called “maverick” received that moniker as a result of being a left-winged appeaser who has obstructed conservatives in just about every significant piece of conservative legislation advanced during his career.

Since November 2008, conservatives nationwide have been on a mission to extricate the left-wing of our party as we have been reaping the devastating consequences of squandering an extremely rare Republican majority of the House, Senate and Executive branch. Conservatives nationwide have been on the warpath to accomplish this task –EXCEPT- for many of those calling themselves Republicans in Arizona.

All conservatives support the immigration bill but John McCain had nothing to do with that. Of course, being an election year, he is more than willing to capitalize on its popularity. I suppose we can chalk up this illegal immigration legislation to the blind squirrel factor (getting an acorn every once in a while). Congrats to Governor Jan Brewer for taking the lead.

It is mind boggling how so many people in that state can be so easily persuaded by this liberal. Just because they had some good times during the presidential campaign (which their guy lost pathetically), they think he is worthy of that senate seat. This is all in spite of the fact that McCain is the epitome of what went wrong with the GOP over the past two decades. This imposter has no more business calling himself a Republican than does Arlen Specter.

Frankly, I am embarrassed for Arizonans who are forcing this guy on the rest of us. They should be ashamed because while they bask in the attention they apparently crave, the rest of the country knows that no matter how many conservative coup d'états OTHER STATES achieve in these primaries - one of the chief obstructionists to the conservative movement is still going to be there to screw them over every step of the way. I really believe that if McCain was up for re-election in any other state right now he would be out on his rear where he belongs. Even Pennsylvania had enough sense to see the damage they had done by tolerating his nonsense.

So J.D. Hayworth made an endorsement on an infomercial encouraging people to buy a program to help them utilize money from government programs? The fact that this “charge” is the best the McCain camp could come up with says a great deal. How many times has McCain harped on this ridiculous point? Most of those programs J.D. was referencing probably had the legislative support of John McCain during all of the years he was stabbing conservatives in the back. McCain probably co-sponsored them.

To be fair, you have to look at what the two men have actually helped to promulgatewhen they were in office, not what TV commercials they did years afterward. By the way, where are all of the people who could rightfully be making fun of Fred Thompson for hocking reverse mortgages?

One guy (Hayworth) endorsed a guide or program that would help people to access grants that already existed. The other (McCain) spent an entire career jumping on almost every opportunity to sell out conservatives - because he couldn’t resist the media plaudits that accompanied his legislative treachery.

Look at the fruits people. Look at all of the years he screwed us to the wall. Look at the left-winged pro-gay marriage promoting antics of his wife and his daughter. They are all cut from the same cloth and they should all be ashamed to claim the title of Republican much less conservative – as should any voter devoid of the sensibilities to see this obvious fact.

Contact: MrArbitrage@tableofwisdom.com

Our ONLY hope is that the rest of the voters of this nation have enough sense to see the obvious destruction that people like McCain have caused our country. Even a Democrat who admits to being a liberal deserves much more respect than a back stabber who masquerades as something he is not so he can make for himself a legacy. God save us from voters who are incapable of critical and logical thinking.

Social Security Statements; hard evidence of Financial Fraud

By MrArbitrage

Marketwatch’s Personal Finance Editor Andrea Coombs wrote a short piece today emphasizing the fact that payroll receipts will fail to cover Social Security payments in 2010 and 2011 so benefits will have to be paid out of the “trust fund”. She writes about how “the long-term outlook hasn’t changed from last year” and that the trust fund is expected to be depleted in 2037.

It is absurd to think these people can predict with accuracy how long it will take for the trust fund to be depleted when there are so many variables involved. Are these people as good at projecting costs and revenues as the Congressional Budget Office? Maybe it –was- the Congressional Budget office making the 2037 projection. The column didn’t say. They have to be assuming a specific level of tax receipts going forward in order to know how much they will need to take from the trust fund each year. Whatever the tax receipts they are expecting, much of it is probably tied to their delusional expectations of higher employment and prosperity resulting from Obama and Pelosi’s socialized medicine bill and tax increases for the rich.

I have to assume that the Trust Fund is mostly “invested” in Treasuries they will need to liquidate to pay seniors. So in order to know when the trust fund will be depleted, they must be projecting a specific valuation for their Treasury Bonds and Notes. Are they assuming that they will be receiving the current ridiculously high prices for this paper through 2037? Are they assuming that China will still be buying to help keep the yields low and prices inflated?

As a rule, whatever they are projecting, assume they are off by at least 70% to the injurious side of any equation and you will never be disappointed.

Coombes reassures the reader “That doesn't mean you won't get your Social Security benefits. It does mean that people in their mid-50s or younger likely won't get the same size checks as their parents are getting now -- and that's especially likely for people with higher-than-average incomes.”

She threw out 78% as the percentage of benefit they will be able to pay out after that magical date of 2037. Well, I have been receiving these statements recently telling me how much I paid in and specifically how much I am going to receive. There were no disclaimers saying this is subject to change and nowhere did it indicate that “past performance is not indicative of future results” as these pillars of rectitude require of all private sector companies to slap on their literature.

Madoff put out those similar fraudulent performance statements, although his at least had the standard market risk disclosures; so he didn’t promote his Ponzi as risk free as does the federal government. Madoff’s problem was the false past performance numbers.

So these statements in writing are clear evidence of investment fraud. I’m going to file a complaint with the SEC next week. If Social Security was a security I would gladly sell my future Social Security payments for 25 cents on the dollar for a lump sum now. Any takers? That’s one annuity I couldn’t in good conscience sell my worst enemy.

Being that I’m pushing 40, I wouldn’t want to sue the elected swindlers for damages unless it came out of their OWN pockets because to set a precedent of collecting damages for financial fraud from the government would mean that I am suing the same bankrupt Treasury that has already been plundered to the point of a trillion dollar deficit. It would be counter productive to make them counterfeit more dollars.

That’s a great idea; sue them personally. Lavish as they are, these scoundrels do not have trillions of dollars in personal wealth so it would be more about the sweet justice of it. Of course the current legislators would do everything within their power to exempt themselves from being brought to justice. They would say that Social Security was created long before most of them were born - making them inculpable. However, people who knowingly carry on a Ponzi scheme are in fact complicit.

A new crop of candidates would have to come out from the beginning, as part of their platform to pledge to impeach all government officials, including those no longer serving, for participating in the defrauding of millions of Americans of a significant percentage of their life savings.

This is a subjective area but the perhaps the way it should be determined is if an official sponsored or co-sponsored a bill that took money from the so-called trust fund and that money was used for any project that is not proven to be within the constitutionally defined powers of the federal government, they should be found guilty of financial fraud and just like Madoff, be prosecuted by the “Justice Department”, then serve the rest of their lives in prison while their assets are liquidated and six figure pensions are divided among the victims of their past and present schemes.

Radical as this sounds, I’m talking about the rule of law. It’s a much more civilized approach than the Jacobinism of late 18th century France. It might seem crazy now but when the results of this scam really hit the fan, a new crop of representatives are going to be held to promises of justice unlike anything we have ever seen. The monumental chicanery of the current administration and the effrontery of our colluding congress are unlike anything this nation has ever experienced – so it would be fitting that such platforms should become a requisite.

A promise to impeach and encourage prosecution might be a good platform for “tea partiers” to ask candidates to pledge. There is no way that the disease can be eradicated by lawmakers who are currently infected with the virus. It would certainly be a case of “physician heal thyself” and with the current crop of swindlers that isn’t going to happen.

The fact that Nancy Pelosi can be in congress at all is an ominous sign of the failure of the federalist system. There are states and districts in this country that are so debauched that they pollute the well for everyone else. It is as though Sodom and Gomorrah have hijacked our country. The fact that Chris Dodd and Barney Frank have just promulgated FINANCIAL REFORM legislation into law instead of rotting in prison and the fact that Pelosi was voted to the position of House Speaker by her Democrat peers is all the confirmation that one needs to realize that this union will never survive unless they are rightfully expunged. Every time I see them and hear their contemptible voices I see a mockery not only of justice but everything that made this country what it once was in all its glory. They are the personification of our national sins.

We have all heard the rhetorical virtues of Social Security bloviated by the politicians for decades; but those are just words, generalities propounded to a large group. The old maxim of “get it in writing” may be applicable in the near future so be sure to hang on to those statements because those are specific promises of specific minimum amounts given to specific people. Subsequently, many financial scam artists are also prosecuted for mail fraud which is how the printed lies of SS are currently delivered.

Michael Steele's prodigality & race-baiting could open door for Palin as RNC Chairma'am

“Republicans as well as Democrats blasted Michael Steele's suggestion that he's being unfairly criticized due to his race.” – Newsmax.com

I think perhaps I understand what temptation Michael Steele –may- have been indulging with his “racism” allegations. These remarks elicit the natural perception that Michael Steele is no different than any other race card playing liberal once he gets himself into trouble. It would appear that he (like Democrats) just doesn’t want to take responsibility and will stoop to blaming others instead.

According to a Newsmax column by David Patten, "it's not the first time that Steele has suggested there are racial reasons for the criticism he's encountered. He recently told Washingtonian Magazine, "I don't see stories about internal operations of the DNC that I see about this operatio Why? Is it because Michael Steele is the chairman, or is it because a black man is chairman?"

It is obvious that the liberal media are not forensic accountants when it comes to the expenses of the DNC and he has a valid point in mentioning that double-standard. Being perturbed by this transparent bias, I imagine it could be tempting to take the opportunity of turning the tables on the Demagogues and the media by accusing –THEM- of being racists - for a change.

It is understandable because they truly are racists down to their very core and that is the amazing thing. It is astounding how this party of bigots successfully bamboozled over 92% of an entire ethnic group into supporting them when the Democrat Party’s most sacred sacrament of abortion was designed to rid this country of their very race!

I don't know that there is a historical parallel so I will have to make one up to illustrate. It would be akin to Africans voluntarily marching to and then standing in line for hours for their turn to be shackled and thrown into a hot, reeking slave ship. But it is worse than this hypothetical because the design of the Democrat Party elite and Planned Parenthood is not to make them –labor- but rather to exterminate them altogether.

That may sound like invidious rhetoric but it happens to be historical fact and they damned well know that. That’s why the Democrats control the schools from pre-k to the PhD. That is why they control the airwaves and now conspire to filter the Internet so that you can only find porn and propaganda. They want to keep you addicted and ignorant of historical reality -and if you are black- many of the whites in the Democrat Party want you to “DIE QUICKLY”. Yes I know The False Prophet is part African but that’s just another irony of life. It’s just as bizarre as the fact that the last holocaust was led by a black haired, brown eyed mad man - who wanted to create a blond haired, blue eyed master race. I think that when God allows a nation to destroy itself, He makes sure that the absurdity is topped off with the preposterous to serve as an exclamation point to posterity.

It would be fun to accuse these make believe journalists of being racists (because they certainly are) but if that is the strategy Steele is taking, he is miscalculating. I’m giving Steele the benefit of a doubt in this theory but regardless of whether I’m right, it is still an unacceptable strategy and the –reason- is a key difference in the noble way conservatives operate versus liberals. Because the specific attribute that makes liberals –liberals- is the desire to wallow in evil at all costs, they are willing to cannibalize anyone anytime anywhere. As long as their actions protect or increase the killing of babies, advance sodomy and expand overall debauchery, they are willing to undermine our foundations.

When Democrats are under suspicion of murder like Ted Kennedy, when Democrats are obviously betraying their country by taking cash bribes for legislation like William J. Jefferson and other forms of bribery like Chris Dodd and Barney Frank, when a Democrat brings disgrace to the Presidency by perjuring himself in a lawsuit against himself for rape, when the disbarred President lies to the entire nation on national television about having oral sex with the young girl whom he and his lawyer instructed to perjure herself during her testimony regarding his sex crimes – when all forms of infamy and treachery are embodied in the person of a serving Democrat, the entire Democrat party rally behind that criminal to the detriment of our country –unless- like Democrat Jim Traficant, he opposes the murder of innocent babies and codifying special rewards for all forms of sexual deviance into law.

When Republicans discover this type of behavior has infiltrated the party, we do not sit around for one moment looking for a way to justify disgraceful activities, no matter who committed them and how powerful they were. As with South Carolina’s Governor Mark Sanford, Congressman Mark Foley and others, we did not support them and we did not even think for one second to try to defend them. We demand consistency. Conservatives demand that their representatives be held to –higher- standards then anyone because of the power with which we entrust them. We can –forgive- those people who betrayed us but we cannot –trust- them with authority once it has been violated.What makes us different is that we are not willing to sacrifice our Constitution and our national security for the sake of winning. We don’t want to BECOME the left to defeat the left. That is the reason why people like Arlen Specter, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, John McCain and Lindsey Graham are now so loathed by our party. That is why once popular Florida Governor Charlie Crist is suddenly being overwhelmingly rejected by his constituents.

Thanks to the False Prophet and The Harlot, we have had a literal come to Jesus experience. The aforementioned moderates may be able to “win” elections but we have learned the hard way that when they win we all really lose. Like hemorrhoids, we tolerated them and the imposters who advanced them for too long. Now we need invasive surgery to remove them and we will.The point is that Michael Steele needs to understand is this is no time to be cute. Conservatives are serious and we are not going to advocate playing the race card even if doing so highlights leftist hypocrisy.

The race card strikes against one of our deepest convictions that people need to take responsibility for their mistakes. Mr. Steele also needs to assure this party that the activities in question are unacceptable and we are not going to become another version of the Democrat Party. The Libertarians are the group that is willing to fuse the debauchery and paganism of the Democrat Party with the economic policies of the Republican Party. Republicans are proud capitalists but this party was founded on something of much greater importance. If you undermine the moral pillars that birthed the Party of Lincoln, we might as well capitulate to the Marxists because the ensuing immorality will guarantee a void that is always filled by tyranny.

I must say I have found Steele on a few occasions to be McCain-esque in the sense that he sometimes seems confused about where he should stand on issues. As I have been writing since January 2009, I feel that Sarah Palin would be perfectly suited for that position. If she runs for President, there is going to be a schism among conservatives, especially when considering her campaigning for John McCain over J.D. Hayworth. I understand the trite excuse about her "owing" McCain something... That is just more of the nonsensical thinking that got us into this debacle. If anything, Palin should have stayed out of that Senate race in deference to McCain. To endorse McCain and campaign against the conservative in the race is inexcusable, especially considering his lifelong betrayal of conservative principles (until he learned some conservative rhetoric last campaign).

( This I wrote wrote in my February 15, 2010 column The Coming GOP Schism and how we can Avoid Self Destructionhttp://www.tableofwisdom.com/

“I know there are going to be intense factions within this party no matter what happens between now and 2012. There is a faction right now that can’t move on from the past who are saying “run Sarah run”. I am not one of them. I like Sarah Palin and think she can do a great deal of good for this country, perhaps as Chairman of the GOP but I emphatically do not want her to be our presidential candidate. We will have factions for Palin, for Huckabee, for Romney, for Pawlenty, Bobby Jindal and perhaps Fred Thompson (not likely). They will split the conservative vote so that we will give the nomination to the candidate we all loathe, the liberal candidate, which we WILL secure by our inability to coalesce. That is the ONLY way John McCain could have won this nomination. The same thing happened with Dole in 1996.” )
