If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

Good question, is it not? The title, I mean:

If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

This question comes from Psalm 11:3 KJV.

AT the outset, long before our forefathers revolted against British tyranny, the foundations of our republic were already lying in place, values wise.

Just to clarify language used in our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution, words have meaning. Religion, for example. At the time of the birth of this nation, ‘religion’ meant Christianity, faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. This very important, very significant word did not imply a pluralistic panoply of contemporary non-Christian religions, as we know them today.

Innumerable times the founding fathers quoted Holy Scripture, the Bible, in their writings that expounded American ideals. In fact, our Constitution rests upon the Ten Commandments given Moses on Mount Sinai.

In Supreme Court case Stone v. Graham, the Court ruled posting of the Ten Commandments in public schools unconstitutional. Unconstitutional? Here is what the court said:

If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any effect at all, it will be to induce the schoolchildren to read, meditate upon, perhaps to venerate and obey the Ten Commandments. — Stone v. Graham, 449 U.S. 39, 42 (1980)

Gasp! Can you imagine what could happen if schoolchildren read, meditated upon, venerated and obeyed the Ten Commandments? 

Crass, albeit intentional, ignorance of our history, our founding documents and the ideas of the founding fathers have been lost from several generations. As the Psalm says, if the foundations are destroyed, we will be in one hell of a mess. That there be no misunderstanding, use of the word ‘hell’ is in every sense a literal hell, not a curse word.

If you rob a people of their history, you can control their destiny.

Historical revisionism isn’t a new phenomena. It’s been around from the time of Cain and Able.

What can the righteous do? We must and we can teach our fellow man and their children our true history. Change will not happen overnight, but come change will.

ObamaCare vs. Swedish Meat Balls

Reading an article on Yahoo.com this afternoon moved me to push back just a little. The following liberal apologetic comes from the New York Times.

What sweat Sweden Can Tell Us About ObamaCare

Mr. Frank touts Swedish efficiency. So, I must ask, how has Sweden successfully mastered state socialism and remained ‘efficient’? That New York Times writer Is obviously a cheerleader for the wrong team.

Let’s put common sense to work.

When looking to have things done to my car, I ask around for references. I have a choice about who works on my car.

When it was time for cataract surgery, I wanted the best, so I asked around for references and got a great eye doctor. This has been my custom whether car repair, grass cutting or suppliers for my business – I want the best and a competitive marketplace affords me these opportunities. All my medical service providers came to me through research.

Do you understand where I’m going with this idea? Right into the free marketplace. Competition is key to quality.

I suggest you look beyond Obama’s cheering squad at the NYT. Learn from real people who have “been there, done that and got the tee shirt”.

Sweden’s Single-Payer Health System Provides a Warning to Other Nations

‘Free’ increases demand for services, ever growing waiting lists, etc.

Citing Swedish life expectancy is a invalid parameter. Life expectancy has many contributors, including genetics and geography.

No nation on earth has a population as diverse as ours.

Disregard propaganda in favor of common sense. Free market principles trump socialism every time.

Tell your congressional delegation to repeal ObamaCare.

American Police State – Is It Too Late To Restore Constitutionally Guaranteed Freedoms?

Patriot Act, Dept. of Homeland Security – Our Congressional representatives say they seemed

a good idea at the time. I and a lot of you thought otherwise. They saw government protecting our people. We foresaw government oppressing our people.

Case in point, Republican John Culberson who represents Texas Congressional District 7. John considers himself a “Jeffersonian Republican”. His bio says he “is committed to Thomas Jefferson’s vision of limited government, individual liberty, and states’ rights.”

John Culberson, along with my Congressman, voted for the Patriot Act and Department of Homeland Security.

Where are we now? Under authority of the Patriot Act, along with other acts of Congress, government “snooping” – sifting, actually – into every aspect of our lives yields what can only be characterized as tyranny of big government.

The Department of Homeland Security has become a colossal national police force funded by Congress. Astronomical DHS ammunition purchases suck the market dry to the point even local municipal police departments are having difficulty finding ammo.

How does Congressman John Culberson see things now? He says, “I intend to start by filing legislation to start systematically shutting down the federal government by restoring the 10th Amendment powers of the States and restoring absolute individual liberty and privacy. I will begin with shutting down the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and strictly limiting its mission to securing our borders and ports of entry and tracking, detaining and deporting foreign nationals.”

Congressman Culberson also pledges to work to repeal, or “roll back” the Patriot Act. Says Mr. Culberson, “I will work hard to undo the damage these laws have done to our liberty, our privacy and to our Republic. I will be a zealot on restoring our liberty and shutting down as much of the federal police state as I can.”

Take note that Cong. Culberson recognizes the “federal police state” that now stands as our greatest threat to freedom.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. — Amendment X

May God have mercy on us.

Barack Obama – The Great Unifier

The one and only redeeming outcome of the Obama administration is its unifying

effect on our country. Not since the Civil Rights Act of 1964 has any one single act of any president served to bring together diverse sectors of our population.

What is this great thing Obama has done for us? It’s his unconstitutional searches and record keeping of our phone calls, emails, and browsing histories. Use of the NSA to unlawfully intrude on our collective privacy has stirred up people from the left, from the right and right down the center of public opinions.

Consider these statements:

Former Vice-President Al Gore – “Obscenely outrageous!”

U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) – “An astounding assault on the Constitution.”

The ACLU – “Beyond Orwellian.”

Candidate for Texas State Governor Tom Pauken – “As Governor of Texas, I will lead the way to protect innocent citizens from this unwarranted intrusion against our individual rights. These actions by our federal government sound like something that could have could have come out of George Orwell’s great novel “1984″ about life under a totalitarian regime. I will push for changes in the Patriot Act to restore our freedom from this intrusive invasion of our privacy, and do everything in my power to protect the citizens of the state of Texas from being targeted by an overreaching federal government—whether it is the IRS going after conservative organizations or NSA-FBI spying on us without due process. A government big enough to give you anything you want is powerful to take away everything you have.”

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) – “We have discovered over the past few months an ongoing pattern of wanton disregard not only for Americans’ privacy, but for the truth – DOJ’s refusal to be forthcoming about drone policy, IRS’s targeting groups for their political beliefs and then misleading the American people about it, DOJ’s targeting of journalists for doing their jobs, and now what seems an unprecedented intrusion into Americans’ personal phone records and potentially into their broader online activities.”

What’s the cure, brother? The cure is to elect conservatives to the House and Senate this coming November. Obviously, we can’t trust a Democrat Senate majority and, to be sure, we don’t want Pelosi back in charge of the House. We MUST elect conservatives to Congress.

Do your homework. Vote conservative in November.

If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face – forever. – George Orwell

These Are The Times That Try Men’s Souls

June 4, 2013

THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value.

The above words seem apropos to the United States of America of this day, yet they were penned by Thomas Paine December 23, 1776.

Racists call for “diversity”, a concept anathema to a united people. Martin Luther King, Jr. and many others worked for “integration”.

integration

  • the act of combining or adding parts to make a unified whole
  • the act of amalgamating a racial or religious group with an existing community
  • the combination of previously racially segregated social facilities into a nonsegregated system
  • to make or be made into a whole; incorporate or be incorporated

“…Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand” — Jesus Christ, Matthew 12:25

At this time in our history, there is public discussion around states seceding from the union, another civil war.

We recently commemorated our war dead and it is necessary I point out this sobering fact: we killed more of ourselves during our Great Civil War than all foreign enemies COMBINED! We remain our own worst enemy. No, my fellow Americans, civil war and secession from the union are not viable options. However, there is one viable option and I see it coming our way – the next ‘great awakening’.

“I often note with equal pleasure that God gave this one connected country to one united people — a people descended from the same language, professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very similar in manners and customs, who by their joint counsels, arms, and efforts, fighting side by side through a long bloody war, have nobly established general liberty and independence.” — John Jay, Federalist No. 2, 1787

Media Bias – Not a New Invention, Just an Imbalance Between Truth and Fiction

Why are so many media journalists anti-TEA Party, anti-Second Amendment, anti-Bill of Rights? Consider journalism professor Christopher Swindell who teaches at taxpayer-funded Marshall University in West Virginia.

School: Marshall University Location: Huntington, WV Department: Journalism

School: Marshall University
Location: Huntington, WV
Department: Journalism

Mr. Swindell falsely claims in an essay the NRA “advocates armed rebellion against the duly elected government of the United States of America” further defaming us as guilty of “treason” “worthy of the firing squad.

To support the new NRA president’s agenda of arming the populace for confrontation with the government is bloody treason,” his rant continues.

His unreasonable, ignorant rant gets even lower, but I spare you the insults.

Below are comments from the website RateMyProfessors.com

“Angry little lonely boy, he is full of hatred and vitriol. Scary guy, could be unhinged any minute. Marshall University and the students deserve better.”

“He is off the chart crazy and should be fired for wanting gun owners, conservatives, and members of NRA executed by the military. He’s a blight on the reputation of Marshall U!”

My response to leftist journalism professor Swindell:

Mr. Swindell, I am the NRA. I am a veteran twice over, first a Vietnam-era Naval veteran and a civilian Vietnam war veteran. I love my country and I cherish the liberty we all share that allows even ignorant persons like you to speak defamatory and public slanders against over 5,000,000 of my fellow patriots, many of whom are called The Greatest Generation, others veterans of numerous wars from Bosnia to Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and Grenada.

We, the NRA membership, pay taxes that support the likes of you. Unlike you and your kind, we daily fight to uphold the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Your mindless, ignorant rant suggests violations of almost the entire Bill of Rights, along with several Articles of the U.S. Constitution. You, sir, are a prime example of why the liberal mainstream media fails to inform the people of facts instead of your biased opinions.

Now, to my fellow patriots: Thomas Jefferson foresaw such abuses of the public media. In fact, biased media is not a new invention, there is just an imbalance between the false and the true.

“The firmness with which the people have withstood the abuses of the press, the discernment they have manifested between truth and falsehood, show that they may safely be trusted to hear everything true and false, and to form a correct judgment between them.” — Thomas Jefferson, 1804
