Knowledge IS Power

Headline: Senate Bill Would Give President Emergency Control of Internet

Fox News Link

What?!  Who in their right mind would even conceive of such a thing?  Oh, yeah, those that are in their "left" mind!

The internet is not something that can just be turned off.  It was originally created to be a channel to share knowledge and communicate.  In its simplest form, it is still doing just that.  Now, the power hungry, megalomania of the Obama administration believes they should be empowered to control it.  I say "NO!".  This is just another attempt to usurp our rights as Americans.  Nothing good can come of it.  Unless you believe the ultimate taxation and manipulation of the internet is a good thing.

Since this administration took office, or more correctly, took power, they have been in a "feeding frenzy" to seize control of everything they can.  They do it under the auspices of crisis management.  Just how many crises are there?  And more importantly, why are there so many?

When are people, even Americans, going to wake up and realize they are giving OUR country away?  Let's take a look at the scoreboard so far since President Obama took office (and this is not a comprehensive list):

1. Stimulus Money
2. Bailout Money
3. National Debt reaching into the TRILLIONS!
4. Seized control of several banks
5. Seized control of General Motors
6. Implementation of various Czars
7. Restriction / taxation of new and existing energy generating plants (coal, oil, et. al.)
8. Continues to spend money this country does NOT have
9. Devaluation of the American Dollar
10. Youth Corps and mandatory volunteer service (hello, oxymoron!)
11. Creation of the interrogation techniques
12. Redistribution of enemy combatants
13. Cash for Clunkers program

Now let's look at what he is attempting to do.

1. Attempting to seize control of healthcare
2. Attempting to seize control of the internet

He is single-handedly de-constructing the United States of America!  And he's done it in less than a year!  And, we as her citizens, have allowed it!  We must stop this runaway freight train of de-evolution and social and fascist ideals.  We must stand up and declare our sovereignty and end this reign of ignorance and stupidity before it cannot be stopped.  We must end the out-of-control spending and superfluous legislation before the only method of resolution becomes the next revolutionary or civil war.

As the old saying goes, as taken from the movie "Top Gun", "Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash.".  Barrack Obama's ego is writing checks this great country cannot cash.  When China, and the other foreign countries call their notes and want their money, we will not have it.  We cannot have it.  Economically speaking, the ONLY way to attempt to resolve this is to tax EVERYONE to their literal death.  By that, I mean if we don't pay our debts, these countries, or governments, will take it our of our hide.

Life is complicated enough without having to prevent or curtail a war that NOBODY wants!  Except, of course, the Obama administration.  I know that I have heard on the Glenn Beck program that there are self-avowed socialists and communists that have been hand-picked by the Obama administration.  Even some Democrats are now worried at the direction this country is going.  Alas, there may be no hope.  Biblically speaking, this must be.  America was the most unique nation in this planets history.  We were created anew, unlike every other nation where a war was fought, won or lost, and the leadership was just changed.  We separated ourselves from Matriarchal and Empirical rulers and declared that man has inalienable rights that governments shall not intrude upon.  Now, we have a government that insists on not just intruding, but invading our rights, to the point of subjugation.

It's been said, "The pen is mightier than the sword.".  Most, if not all of us, have experienced some kind of pain from a cut, a stick, a prick, or some kind of wound and the memory of that pain has faded over time.  All of us, at the hands, or tongues for that matter, have felt the stinging blow of a bitter remark whose pain lingers a lifetime.  Reduce those remarks to writing and the pain could be eternal.  Words have power and meaning.  Let us use them to stop this train wreck we call the Obama Administration.  Let us take arms against and out-of-control government by declaring our mistrust in written word.  Let us take back our nation, for the people, by the people, and tell our quisling leaders they no longer have power to do these things.

This is a call to arms, to pen our disdain, to end this tyranny, and take back what is rightfully ours!

It's Officially Unofficial

Just finished reading a news article on MSNBC.com about Michael Jackson. Here's the link: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32542682/?GT1=43001

In my Friday, June 26, 2009, blog entry, "Death by Loneliness", I suggested his death would be due to polypharmacy. Here is the "Officially Unofficial" results:

Forensic tests found the powerful anesthetic propofol acted together with at least two sedatives to cause Jackson’s death June 25 in his rented Los Angeles mansion, according to the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the findings have not been publicly released.

Besides the propofol and two sedatives, the coroner’s toxicology report found other substances in Jackson’s system but they were not believed to have been a factor in the singer’s death, the official told the AP.

So there you have it. Now that that is over, maybe we can move on to something a little more important like Obama's train wreck in progress, also called Obamacare!

KISS - Keep It Simple Stupid

So I've been reading in the news how all the states are cash-strapped and trying to find new ways to create revenue, except, of course, President Obama who just keeps on spending. I'm reminded of the song on "Finding Nemo", "Just keep spending, spending, just keep spending...". Now that's funny. I'm making myself laugh.

Anyway, on to the point. One example I read about: California wants to legalize marijuana and then tax it at $50.0 per ounce. Another one I read: Some states are considering charging inmates for their stay, which could be up to $40.00 per day per inmate. Or, charging them for toilet paper. Or, worse yet, charging them for medical visits. Really?! Doesn't that just fly in the face of Obama and his all-encompassing health care that is paid for by the government? Seriously?!

I think I might have an answer that will work for everyone. Cut programs, rescind superfluous laws, and release inmates that really don't need to be behind bars in the first place. Most importantly of these is STOP SPENDING! It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize there is no money to fund all of these ridiculous entitlement programs, let alone the proposed, and realized, spending of the Obama Administration.

It's amazing to me that just one hundred years ago, people were in the position that if they didn't work their farm (you know, till, plant, harvest, and store) they would die. If they didn't cut wood for the Winter, they would freeze. If they didn't have a gun when someone came on their land and threatened to take it, thy would lose it, or worse yet, be killed. What happened to the human spirit? What happened to the will and drive of mankind for self-sufficiency? When did it become vogue to play "Robin Hood" and steal from the rich and give to everyone else? Notice that I DID NOT say the poor. I have seen wealthier poor people than me with their bling and shiny things, new clothes, and super-huge house, while they were standing in the welfare line. I literally equate it to this: if i walk up to an old lady and ask her to give me her purse, and she does, and then I simply walk down the street and give that money to some total stranger, what is going to happen? I am going to be arrested for stealing! So why is it okay for President Obama and his administration, and all these states, to do the same thing? It's not! Well, technically. I should probably point out the minor flaw here. I asked the old lady for her purse and she willingly gave it to me. So technically, I didn't steal it. I "re-distributed" it. So with all of these government entities we must be willingly giving them permission to give our hard-earned money to these less fortunate people.

So why don't we say no? Now that's the question!

In the Book of Mormon, in Ether, Chapter 10, Verses 1-8, I found this:

And it came to pass that Shez, who was a descendant of Heth—for aHeth had perished by the famine, and all his household save it were Shez—wherefore, Shez began to build up again a broken people. And it came to pass that Shez did remember the destruction of his fathers, and he did build up a righteous kingdom; for he remembered what the Lord had done in bringing Jared and his brother across the deep; and he did walk in the ways of the Lord; and he begat sons and daughters. And his eldest son, whose name was Shez, did rebel against him; nevertheless, Shez was smitten by the hand of a robber, because of his exceeding riches, which brought peace again unto his father. And it came to pass that his father did build up many cities upon the face of the land, and the people began again to spread over all the face of the land. And Shez did live to an exceedingly old age; and he begat Riplakish. And he died, and Riplakish reigned in his stead. And it came to pass that Riplakish did not do that which was right in the sight of the Lord, for he did have many wives and concubines, and did lay that upon men’s shoulders which was grievous to be borne; yea, he did tax them with heavy taxes; and with the taxes he did build many spacious buildings. And he did erect him an exceedingly beautiful throne; and he did build many prisons, and whoso would not be subject unto taxes he did cast into prison; and whoso was not able to pay taxes he did cast into prison; and he did cause that they should labor continually for their support; and whoso refused to labor he did cause to be put to death. Wherefore he did obtain all his fine work, yea, even his fine gold he did cause to be refined in prison; and all manner of fine workmanship he did cause to be wrought in prison. And it came to pass that he did afflict the people with his whoredoms and abominations. And when he had reigned for the space of forty and two years the people did rise up in rebellion against him; and there began to be war again in the land, insomuch that Riplakish was killed, and his descendants were driven out of the land.

Oh....my....gosh! I believe we could substitute Obama's name for Riplakish. Let's look at this just a bit closer.

• Obama promises change.
• Spending is out of control.
• Taxes are going up.
• If you don't pay taxes, the ultimate punishment is imprisonment.
• Governments continue to build spacious and lavish buildings when there is no money.
• Clinton, and other politicians, commit whoredoms and abominations.
• Government has taken control of business.

Wow! Does any of this sound familiar? Now let's consider a few more things.

• A seemingly innocuous man catapults to the highest position in Government, almost overnight
• He implements massive and sweeping economic and social changes, almost overnight
• He institutes a mandatory service for youth
• He rules with an iron fist and casts aside anyone who opposes him
• He lives contrariantly to his stated beliefs (i.e., he spends wildly while demanding others restrict their spending)
• Demonized an innocent group of people

Hmmm, I bet you thought I was describing President Obama? Well, I was actually describing Adolf Hitler. When did it become vogue to be fascist?
