An Apology

I find myself a little unhappy with myself today for getting a little too carried away in my blog last night, and calling my imaginary 'enemies' on the Left outright swear-word names.  I know that that's not the way to move forward.  It's just that 'it' gets so frustrating, sometimes...

Let me try to clarify where I'm coming from.  And that is, to put it succinctly: from the position of a pacifist - someone trying to rise above the old action-reaction game of Life; being on one side or other of the 'board'.  But in doing so, I'm not a natural pacifist; to say, it doesn't come natural to me.

I was a conscientious objector during the time of the Draft, occasioned by the Korean War, aka a Police Action (another story; something to do with politics, an arcane mystery to me at the time).  I had left university before completion of my studies (I was a pre-Med, and was set to go into Med School the following, what would have been my Senior, year) after having 'a spiritual experience' (another story as well) and deciding to go 'out' and find Truth - the big questions, of What is life all about, and Why am I here; that sort of coming-of-age thing; and then, being 'fair game' upon leaving my formal education status, was confronted with one of those mundane things of life, in this case, a decision about serving my two years in the Army or not.  By then the Korean, er, Incident itself was 'over', in a time of an uneasy Armistice; but how did I feel about this business of 'war' after all my readings into the larger questions of life - having spent the better part of a year haunting the NewYork Public Library and reading everything I could get my hands on regarding 'The Big Ones'???  I decided to serve my two years of 'national service'1 by acknowledging the need for the country - my country - to defend itself, until we humans could get beyond that level of 'civilization', but I would not do it by bearing a weapon, rather, would consent to go and serve my time as a medic.2

I say all this as well to indicate that I didn't get to the 'pacifist' frame of mind by way of some sort of natural predilection of temperament.  I got to it by way of a logical thought process - albeit its having been triggered by an 'illogical' incident - which all said to me: this 'antagonistic', 'adversarial' way won't work in the end.  We humans have to learn to get along with each other.

My 'gut' feeling, in fact, is that I have led men in battle.3  My next 'gut' feeling is that I came to the point of awareness that we must now move beyond confrontation and get to cooperation (nuclear weaponry has 'taught' us that; or we are about to find out differently).  Historical figures like Lao Tzu and Confucius have always interested me, and inspired me, by their wisdom: the sense that there is something more, something higher, to get to, behind the presenting conditions of life.4  It's as though, caught in the throes of some confrontation in a life, and having to deal with what was presented to me, 'situated' right in front of me, I knew that there had to be something more than just action and reaction; that if we in life could just get around to 'the other side', the side of our prospective enemy, and say, Look, there has to be a better way than this; can't we sit down and reason together??, that things could be different here.

The example of Charlemagne comes to mind.  The Germanic tribes that he conquered (or attempted to; over and over again) of course would have their own take on his actions.  But it would appear (at least) that he was trying to accomplish this same thing: to help the 'humanity' of his time get to a point of listening to one another, instead of fighting each other.  And so he applied - let's call it what it was - he imposed a Pax Romana on as many warring tribes as he could.  Came from an honorable place.5

 And I'm sure that the potential Imposers of our day - maybe not the Illuminati itself (and the off-world entities behind even them), who are in 'it' for power for power's sake, and using the human 'herd' as a food stock; but the next level down, the Rothschilds and David Rockefeller and so forth - felt, and feel, the same way: that if they could just impose an international order, there would be no more wars.  It's the same with the vision of the Founders of what has become the EU: If the warring nations of Europe could just be brought into a union, they could rise above their age-old animosities.  Unfortunately, 'the devil is in the details': the way they chose to do it was the same old way that gets us humans into trouble in the first place: by the use of Force, rather than Reason.6  (And a larger vision of Life, and what it's all about, anyway.)

And I want to help stop that action-reaction game.  And actually, I want to help stop the game itself.  For that is all we are experiencing: a Game.  The Game of Life.  To learn lessons from.  And then move on.

Back to Unity.  With each other.  And the Godhead.

But first things first: to 'get it'.  To recognize it all, for what it is.  And I think that is why I get so angry at what I take to be low-consciousness thinking and actions: It is all missing the point.  Is all just part of The Game; when what we are supposed to be up to is moving beyond The Game.

Not getting caught up in the Drama as if it were the real thing.

And so, I don't want to get caught up back in the Drama; and thus resent 'it' - other people, and my own dance with the darkness, with the shadows on the wall - when I do succumb to the Drama.

And call others names.  When our real name is I.

And our real mission is: seeking Itself.

And our real goal is: finding Itself.

The fractals - the adventurers; the explorers; the scouts - of God returning to their Source.

The Whole stronger - wiser - for the experience.

1 The choices were: go into the military branch of one's choice, or serve one's two years in the Army under the Draft, or apply for special dispensation for reasons of family obligations or disability, or apply for conscientious objection; the latter of which category entailed the choices of a) going to jail for the two years; b) serving two years of 'national service' time stateside as, e.g., a hospital orderly; or c) going into the Army as a medic, thus not required to bear weapons.


2 Which I ended up doing, over in Korea itself, rather than in the European theater of operations, which was also an 'option', although not left up to the person.  The individual could indicate a preference; but the decision itself was left up to the bureaucracy.
     As it turned out, I was in the Medical Battalion of the 7th Division, some miles north of Seoul, for only a short time, before I applied for, and went into, Special Services, running the Division's desk for producing our own soldier shows, for touring as well, and organizing the appearances in our area of other touring shows, including stateside troupes.  Which was all great fun.  But all of that is another story as well.


3 My main heroes in life have been military leaders.  I have always looked up to the likes of Alexander the Great (who had a grand vision, of uniting peoples; keep reading), and Charlemagne (and the relatively unsung Charles Martel, who not only halted the Islamic advance into Western Europe, but by doing so, saved Western civilization from being inundated by a collectivist, as opposed to an individualist, vision), and Patton (who defeated his enemy in the place where it really mattered: their minds), and MacArthur (who kept his word).
     But lurking in the background of my mind has also always been the sense that there is a better way.  And it is our job to find it.
     And get to it.  
     And establish it.  For all Time.


4 For some reason, religious figures haven't done the same for me.  There's such a bewildering array of such figures, and it all comes down to belief, rather than good 'common' sense.  Besides, 'religion' has fostered bloodshed.  Not a very intelligent state of affairs.
     Any religion that purports to support the killing of 'unbelievers' is false, and should be rejected by all thinking persons.


5 And helped 'culture' thrive in its wake.  Which was his main intent.  Not power for power's sake.


6 And I'm sure that it's the same with many, if not most, of those erstwhile Controllers who want to corral the US into a union - the North American Union - with Mexico and Canada.  For them, the purpose is mostly economic; but the intention is the same: 'Things will be better; if those damn American 'patriots' would just listen to reason.'  Hey - how about listening to their points?  Their legitimate, warning points, about your erstwhile 'greater union,' and the basis upon which is being founded??  To say: on deceit???
     And hardly the fundamental principles of the American Republic, which it would supersede.  For the wrong reasons.

Revenge Of The Inundated

Another day, another load of donation-asking mail to sort through.  Sigh…I'm beginning to get a little short with it all.  Example, as written back to one such particularly-persistent source (who presumably looks out for the politicians spending 'our' Social Security Trust Fund monies):  

August 6

Dear Dan,

Money still doesn't grow on trees in my neck of the woods.  I have to set priorities on the spending of my meager Social Security monthly pension payout, and unfortunately for you, your worthy cause didn't make the cut.  Or rather, got it.  Sorry.

Stan

P.S. It's spelled 'aisle', Dan (or whomsoever).  Not 'isle'.  An 'isle'' is an island; an 'aisle' is like that which separates the Democrats and the Republicans.  (Although it hasn't been doing a very good job of it for some time.)

P.P.S.  And I suggest that you (or your 'professional' fundraiser) find some synonyms for 'greedy'. That, or stop repeating the word so much.  It gets tiresome on the ear.

P.P.P.S. And while I'm at well-meant suggestions: You (or your 'professional' fundraiser) should really stop referring to your repeated requests for money as a "one-time emergency donation".  "Emergency" may be.  But there's nothing "one-time" about it.  It goes on, and on, and on…and is very annoying.

---

…and sometimes, Appreciation from the Inundated: 

Other material in the daily mail avalanche is welcome.  Of a sort.  It gives me info on what all the Obama administration is up to, in its slow-motion putsch for Power Over   Not that I enjoy hearing the likes of:

'Illegal Aliens Are Voting in U.S. Elections and Tipping Key Races'1

I get so disgusted hearing all these stories of how vote fraud is so widespread, engaged in in particular by ACORN and its subsequent incarnations - subsequent to its having been slapped down by Congress for some blatantly illegal, caught-in-the-act offenses.  But that didn't stop its successors.  Because these 'community organizers' are schooled in such shenanigans.  That's what they're there for .  Not to 'true the vote'.  But to untrue it.  To skew it to their side of the political aisle; speaking of.2

I acknowledge that some of this is due to the same sort of voting trickery that the Republicans have engaged in in the past, particularly with their electronic voting machines that could throw votes to the Republican candidate - and apparently did, big time, in Ohio in 2004, for Bush the Junior.  But is 'Don't get mad -  get even' the proper answer to corruption??  That just compounds the problem.

And anyway, how on Earth did both camps ever think that they could ultimately get away with all this voting chicanery; working with the concept aptly described by Stalin when he said that it doesn't matter who votes but who counts the votes (or words to that effect)??  People, people: Do you really think you're getting away with anything?  That Life has no meaning, and 'the universe' no justice??  What is the matter with you?  Is that it?  The 'matter', getting in the way???  

You have a soul. sending messages to your heart.  It's called having a conscience; and in your heart of hearts, you know that what you are doing is wrong.  You may cover it up momentarily by saying defensively that 'they do it'.  But two wrongs don't make a right.  

Be bigger than your opponents.  Don't descend to their level.

Be part of the solution.  Not the problem.

I'm not sure that it does any good to talk to liberals in particular in such terms.  I have been disgusted with their 'situational ethics' antics for a long time - and even on another continent.  I can remember in particular getting this disgusted with the treatment dealt out to 'a new kid on the block' politically speaking - one Pauline Hanson, a working-class mum, operator of a small business, who was sent to the Australian Senate to 'tell'em like it is' by similar types of voters ('right-wing populists'), and who got up the noses of the liberal elite in the process (which was a bit of a feat, since they had their noses so high in the air at the time).  She was what in America we would call a redneck - red-haired and feisty; and the Establishment did all they could to cut her down to their size.  The event that sent me ballistic was when she appeared on a prime-time news journal TV show and the female interviewer threw her a curve in the form of asking her if she thought she wasn't being rather "xenophobic".  Stunned by the highfalutin' word, she asked, gently, "Please explain."  Which made all manner of sense.  This was no college-educated woman - and 'they' knew it.  And had the effrontery to guffaw over her stumble over the word.  When I came across some comments on a blogger's Comment thread on the interview, and one of the posters made fun of her for not knowing the definition of the word, I almost threw my computer across the room.  

How dare these sons of bitches make fun of a hardworking-class mum who is representing her 'class' in the nation's parliament, and has something to say to the high and mighty in doing so.  Their attitude is the same as the Saul Alinsky 'Rules for Radicals' technique of ridiculing your opponent (instead of engaging them in true, legitimate debate).  It's the Whatever It Takes approach to political discourse: the end-justifies-the-means philosophy of tyrants down through the ages.  Such cynical, corrupt, tyrannical thinking and activity will not go down/have any place in any sphere that I have anything to do with.  If you're going to engage in such cynical oneupmanship, get the hell off my planet.  Go find another place to play your effing games.  And if I have anything to do with that place, I'll chase you out of there as well.  I will not have such puerile mentality going on in any sphere of consciousness-experiencing that I have anything to do with; have any responsibility for, by being one of its incarnate souls.  How dare you make fun of someone for not knowing the meaning of a hoity-toity word like 'xenophobia'??!!

And in all this rant, I do not mean to overlook the faults of the right-wing, 'conservative' well-off either.  Detroit is getting some stick for needing, under liberal management, to go for bankruptcy, but what's the difference between it and the 'too big to fail' banks, having played their money-grubbing games of chance a bridge too far, and angling for getting off the hook for their grossly-engaged-in gambling - politely put as 'unbridled speculation' - by going to Uncle Sugar???  The federal government shouldn't bail out Detroit - that's not proper use of federal, to say the taxpayers', taxes - and it shouldn't have bailed out the big arrogant banks either.  The prospect creates a dependency mentality, which is part and parcel of the very sin that the federal government has already created, in giving in to bleeding-heart (and some strategically-intended) congressional votes for the creation of what is now a bloated welfare class, full of expectations of 'entitlements' and such seductive ill-gotten gains. 

The whole thing is a sorry, sorry mess  As I say: I will not brook such nonsense in any realm that I have anything to do with.  Raise your game, or off you go.  

Gaia has better things to do now than put up with such low-consciousness shenanigans any longer.  And in any event: how do you expect to move up to a moneyless society - operating on Love, not Force -  if you won't even clean up your act on this level of social interaction???  

Come on.  Let's see some sign of what you are really made of.  And believe me: It is not of clay.

footnotes:

1 from an 8-page document prepared by the American Civil Rights Union, documenting in all its gory detail the voting fraud going on from the Left.  Who are so big when it comes to 'security' regarding NSA overreach operations - spying on the American public wholesale.  But are strangely found absent - and even interfering - when it coms to 'truing the vote', with the likes of photo ID cards for voters.  Something we need constantly in everyday life, to cash a check, use a credit card, check a book out of the library, board a plane, check into a hotel…but to vote?  Oh no.  That would throw a spanner in the works.  Er, that is to say, be difficult on the poor.  (Who are already allowed for, in the various states where voter photo ID cards are already required; but are under constant pressure by Obama's Justice Department to be eliminated.   Go figure.)  

     This whole thing stinks to high heaven.  Which is in part why I have come: to help clean such low-consciousness activity up.  And thus help prepare the way for the New.

     I didn't incarnate at this time to waste my time.  And so I am not here to waste my time.

     Nor are you either, if you but knew it.


2 To emphasize the point: I find it interesting that the Left is so big these days on 'security' when it comes to NSA overreach - i.e., giving them intel on what everybody in the populace is thinking and doing; for their regime to be able to act on anything that starts to stir up on the grassroots level - but is not interested in 'security' when it comes to ballot security, and the ability of the American people to feel that their vote is meaningful, is not being undercut and disempowered by fraud.
     As I wrote as an afterthought on the back of the envelope I sent back to the ACRU (with my donation; meager as it was): 'Please continue to help stop the effective disenfranchising of the American citizen.'  (In the Survey form that had been sent to me by them, I wrote in how I had not voted in the last election because I would not take part in a charade.  That's how strongly I feel about this 'ballot security' matter.  I want it cleaned up - fully.  Or we should boycott the farce altogether. )
                

An Enemy Of The State

(further to my email to Sen. Dianne Feinstein of yesterday. on the likes of the NSA vacuuming The People's communications up wholesale.  The more I think about it, the more incensed, and uneasy, I get.)

To paraphrase Emile Zola: I Resent.

I Resent that the current American government and federal judicial system are engaged in overthrow tactics - and the U.S. Congress is not doing much if anything about it.  And it is all keeping me, in concert with other Lighworkers, from what I would prefer to be doing.  And that is to concentrate on presiding over the moving of America, and the world, into its mutual New Era, New Age, New Paradigm, post-Illusion State of Being; call it what you will.1

The process, of creating an antithesis to the established way of being - i.e., runaway capitalism in the economic sphere (and the primacy of the individual), a (somewhat corrupted) two-party system in the political sphere, and one primary religion in the West in the socio-religious sphere; for it all to be superseded, in Marxist thinking, by a presumed Synthesis, of total socialism, aka communism, in the economic sphere (with the primacy of the collective), and the state being the voice of The People in the political sphere, and the presumed crowning achievement of 'enlightened', rational thought, being atheism, and the 'philosophy' of dialectical materialism, in the social sphere - has now gone as far as it can 'comfortably' go.  Any further, and we are into civil war in this country.  

Consider.

Hardcore socialists have taken over the wheelhouse of the American ship of state.  And they are not about to abandon it, give it over to the 'other team' in the American form of two-party politics; for they are ideologues.  Are not just European-style socialists.  They are radicals; extremists, of the Bolshevik caliber.  They will liquidate their enemies if given half a chance2 - and that includes anybody to the right of them.  Including 'useful idiot' mainstream Democrats.  So they are going to do all they can to manipulate a declaration of Martial Law into being - including making moves to taking away the individual's right to viable self-defense, especially against a rogue government - in order to suspend the Constitution, as the first step to doing away with it altogether, in the establishing of a tyrannical form of government over the American people, in order to meld the former United States of America into a region - the already-identified North American Union - of a statist New World Order.3     

Mark my words well on this.  Many of these soldiers are 'true believers' of the worst sort.  They are not just doing a consciousness-raising, evolutionary job - clearing the decks for a true Synthesis to take over the running of the ship of state on the new sea for all of Humanity.  They are minions of the Dark; have succumbed to that lure, of Power Over.  And are not to be trusted any further than you can throw them overboard.          

And to paraphrase Wayne Allyn Root, who didn't recognize Barack Obama - aka Barry Soetoro, as he more likely was known at that time for that place - as a fellow member of his poli sci class year at Columbia University:4 I do not recognize the man as a member of my spiritual class.  

Members of my spiritual class work with, and embody, qualities such as truth, and honesty, and integrity.  The man who these days calls himself Barack Hussein Obama operates by such 'qualities' as lying, and deceit, and sophistry.  

Take your pick, Americans.  And remark well on your choice; on what you are doing.  Your decision - whether to join the Light of the New Day dawning, or go with the Dark - is going to last you for a long, long time.      

---

footnotes:

1 The Masons call it 'Novus Ordo Seclorum' - translated as 'New Order of the Ages'.  It remains to be seen whether they ultimately come down on the side of the Dark Forces - the so-called Illuminati - or 'rise to the occasion,' and join the Light.

     There's still time…

2 You did hear Obama call their political opposition the 'enemy' during the 2012 campaign, didn't you???  Not  just their political 'opponents'.

     Which is of the mindset that has targeted (for stonewalling of applications and for audits & lists of member & donor rolls) 'conservative' groups for IRS harassment, and DOJ spying, and NSA surveillance.  'Conservative' - as in having in your tax exempt -applying group's name the words 'tea party', or 'patriot' - or even 'liberty'.  Which is about as clear a signal of what they're up to as anything could ever be. 

     Oh - perhaps one more thing.  Once the harassment policy was decided on, from the top down (as White House Visitor log checks have verified), an additional step was taken by the Obama administration: The IRS also went back and targeted for harassment (audits and 'requests' for their  member & donor rolls) 'conservative' groups after they had already been granted their tax-exempt status.     

     Can I rest my case now??

     This is not just two-party-system political harassment.

     This is war.


3 In her recent appearance before a Senate committee hearing on the NSA overreach - which she defended - Sen. Dianne 'ban semi-automatics' Feinstein showed a visual of the areas of the world in which the NSA's overreach purportedly foiled over 50 terrorist plots in the last several years. (Most of which in this country were FBI stings.) When Sen. Feinstein referred to our 'Homeland', the map showed North America dutifully colored in.  Did/do you catch that?
     The United States, Mexico, and Canada. Identified as our 'Homeland' area...
     If you were in any doubt: the North American Union idea is obviously still alive and kicking in the minds of our erstwhile Overseers.  Aka slavemasters, on Plantation Earth.
     'Tote that barge!  Lift that bale!  And don't even think of tryin' to hide runaways!  What do you think smart meters are for, anyways?  To help you keep track of your energy usage??  Silly billy.  You don't have a clue.  Even now...
     ' - wha' - wha'?  Who's that beatin' on my head?  I'm in charge here.
     'Ain't I???......'  
             

4 Let me put it to you clearly,  Let's say the leaders of a totalitarian-minded econo-political entity, with ambitions for world hegemony - as, say, referenced in Professor Carroll Quigley's monumental and extremely revealing tome 'Tragedy And Hope' - wanted to put one of theirs into high political office in the U.S. - the highest there is: the presidency.  And let's say that they decided that the best way - and to accomplish their ends - was to put someone in there who could appeal to the targeted populace for their takeover: minorities.  Of all kinds.  To be welded (and wielded) into a mass movement (with the aid of a compliant, to say bought, media).  To overthrow the 'vested interests: the majority of the citizenry, satisfied, for the most part, with the status quo.  But that there were questions regarding his (could be a female; but that would be a bit further of a stretch to accomplish.  At least in the first crack at the overthrow) birth credentials; so they, and a cover story, would need to be manufactured.  Easy peasy, for the likes of, say, the CIA - a professional intelligence body, with inside access to all manner of legal documentation. 

     And let's say part of his preparation for the job was to be indoctrinated at a professional institute for such things, in a foreign country.  How to accomplish that little challenge?  Again: easy, for a professional body of spooks: manufacture a cover story, for missing time in the person's CV.  A trip to a cut-out country, say.  Control access to his passport, so that no one would know when he actually returned to the U.S..  Manufacture a cover story; say, that he 'didn't hang out much' with his fellow classmates, kept mostly to himself during his collegiate time.*  Get a compliant professor to help him with his cover story, by giving him a grade on a paper that could, or could not be, legitimate.  Give him a job with one of your front businesses upon his, er, graduation, until the next steps of his Manchurian candidacy were set in place.  

     As I say: Easy peasy.  When you've got inside clout to make it happen.  

     And to cover any contingencies that might crop up along the way…

     …and if anybody starts snooping around too much, or causes problems for the cover story; well there are ways to deal with such little challenges, to best-laid plans.  You can keep concocting cover stuff.  (Remember: you have working control of the MSM.)  You can ridicule any such a person.  (A la Saul Alinsky's 'Rules for Radicals'.)  Or you can simply terminate them, with extreme prejudice.  And with that ever-friendly MSM at your beck and call.  

     As I say……'Just keep cool, man.  And all will be well.'

     Not.   

     * his higher collegiate time.  As for his entry-level collegiate time, well, just stonewall info about  his links with hardcore Marxists during that time, and personal arguments for hardcore revolution - based, in large part, on his mentoring by a hardcore communist, name of 'Frank'.  

     And let's be frank here, shall we?  Once you have control of the MSM, the game is almost over.

     As new chief of the CIA, William. Casey, said to his charges at his first staff meeting with them:

     "We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false."

     But the CIA is on our side, isn't it??

     It depends on what you mean by "our side".  The CIA is on the side of their paymasters.

     And that ain't the American public.

This regime is doing all this on purpose, trying to bankrupt this country. Too bad there are no men with enough cajones in Congress to do anything about it. I just hope we survive as a capitalist country after these tyrants leave office.

  But who's to say they are going to "leave office", Shorty Stuff?? A more plausible scenario is that, being extremists - NOT European-style socialists - the Obama wrecking crew are going to goad a Martial Law declaration into being - somehow; anyhow they can - and then rule indefinitely, by fiat; until they and their paymasters establish their vaunted New World Order. And we have been taken over. Just like that. Easy peasy, when the populace has gone asleep at the switch, from freedom to slavery, because they thought somebody else was keeping an eye on such things. That it was somebody else's job. Not theirs. They're just one of The People.

Thanks for keeping an eye on all this sort of thing, Larry, and exposing it for all to see - all who will look, that is.

A sad commentary, that. This present generation causing the founding generation to turn over in their graves, in anguish, disgust, and sadness.

  And what are you doing about it (other than stating the obvious)?

[reply just gone August 5]

snaketrapper,

I spent some 30 years of my long life living in a spiritual community, running education programs helping people - as individuals - see and really get that the world will change when people change, i,e., that real change comes from within, and works its way out to the larger canvas from there. That it's foolhardy to expect the outer to change first.  And to take heart, because change is afoot; and to add to that dynamic.

I see that you are a follower of Hans Hoppe.  There is some good thinking in that vein.  But I would encourage you to think even bigger; along the lines of understanding that we are 'spiritual beings having a human experience' - that there is a larger reality than the one that we experience in linear fashion.  And we are about to burst free from the confines of the matrix that we have been embedded in for so long - that we have embedded ourselves in, for staying attached to it, thinking that it is all there is.  The human heart has longed for freedom from an oppressive environment; and is about to get its wish, humanity having come of age.  So what I am "doing about it" is encouraging people to go within, and listen to their inner voice, and act accordingly; bringing the inner into the outer, more and more.  And with that activity, realizing that we don't need money [in order] to share amongst ourselves.  All we need is Love.  As the sons and daughters of a loving Creator.  Experiencing the illusion of duality, in order to learn lessons from it, and then release it, and move back into the reality of Unity.

I also have a blog site, where I reflect on all these things.  If you find yourself getting interested to check it out, it's:

Thanks for asking.

...and a late (night) entry:

from my email to Sen. Feinstein - early Aug. 5 (occasioned by an e-newsletter from conservative byte.com on Aug. 3)

Dear Senator Feinstein,

I would like to hear

a) why you showed a visual, at a Senate Committee hearing regarding the NSA overreach, that depicted our 'Homeland' as including Mexico and Canada; and

b) why you think it is necessary to turn America into a total-surveillance police state in order to buy a little 'security'?  Surely our privacy rights extend to the federal government not having the power to vacuum up ALL of our communications in order to seek out leads to terrorist activity.  Or does the federal government now suspect ALL of its citizens of harboring such thoughts and feelings; and the nation's judicial system has changed, from one where The People are innocent until being proven guilty, to being guilty until they can prove their innocence??  And if so, when did The People consent to this fundamental change???

Specifically, I would like to know what your legal justification is for the NSA commandeering total communication information on The People, rather than needing a warrant, for 'probable cause'.  This is dastardly business.  Please explain.

...And While On The Subject...

to the Heritage Foundation website - Aug. 4

(under 'Video: Jim DeMint Says Defunding Obamacare Is the Best Way to Stop It' by Katie Nielsen)

Stan Stanfield - August 4, 2013

It's all very well to 'talk the talk,' Jim.  But I have been disturbed to find out that the Heritage Fdtn has come out against Nullification initiatives from several States.  Your take on the matter would make the creation superior to the creator.  That is surely not right.  And Madison in Federalist Paper No. 46 even spelled out the correct take on the matter (as to how to thwart any potential "schemes of usurpation" [on the part] of the federal government).  

Yours doesn't sound like the position on the matter that an organization like yours SHOULD be taking - an organization that paints itself (e.g., in your little 'Board Challenge to Members' leaflet) as understanding "the Role of the People...(in living) up to our responsibilities in order to maintain the Founders' vision for America". 

As for "usurpation" matters: I also take exception to the position one of your key spokespersons in the past, Edwin Meese, has taken on the definition of a 'natural born citizen'.  Surely the constitutional Framers meant that to mean that a candidate for the office of the presidency - and that particular office only; which person is also the Commander in Chief of the nation's military forces - should have no conflicting loyalties or allegiances - as a dual citizen would have, i.e., someone not born of two U.S. citizen parents.  What gives with the Heritage Fdtn's failure to honor the position of the Framers on THAT 'little' matter as well???

Concerned in California

(and coming from this state, with its current representation to the federal government, I have every good reason to be VERY concerned about what's happening on the federal level of government in and for the nation...)

A Letter to a Senator

'Dear Senator Rubio [as I wrote back today in response to a letter of his; somewhat fleshed out for this more detailed version],

'Thank you for your letter soliciting funds for your campaign for a return to the Senate, as a demographic-aware Republican.  As you can see, I have returned your request, with no response.  Except a request of mine.  And that is, to ask that if you will come out against the Usurper Obama as ineligible for the presidential office - because of his not being a 'natural born' citizen; that being one born on the soil (or equivalent) of two U.S. citizen parents - then I'll consider supporting you.1  

'The man who calls himself Barack Hussein Obama has stolen the presidency and undermined the Constitution.  It is a crime and a shame.  Republicans: DO something about it!' 

We will be a people governed by self-determination [my thought process goes on]; not by an oppressive state.  Or you will not have a political base any longer.  Take your pick of responses. Join us in 'essential liberty' - one of the founding principles of the American Republic.  It suits you better, than dependency on, and under the massive control of, the state.  Your parents entered into the spirit of this nation - the spirit of 'the land of opportunity' - and 'made it happen' for them, and you.  You their children are, and bear, the fruit of their efforts, and actions, in the soil of a free country.  The Left wants 'it' to happen magically, with the hammer of federal laws, regulating The People - the state's servants - to within an inch of their constricted lives.  And that's why this usurpation must not stand.  

And won't.  Not if a free people have anything to say about it.  

Which they still have. If barely.  If only to utter quietly, but firmly, to the enemies of freedom, who now want to make their move, of attempted takeover of the Republic, and as part of that move, are trying to take away the ability of freemen to defend themselves against the state with sufficient weaponry:

Molon labe.         

     

Let's hope it doesn't comes to what that implies.  That is, civil war.  For something larger is afoot here.  And it augurs well for all humankind.

What has happened to some on the Left, I surmise - the others having just taken to the lure of Power Over Others - is that they have overlooked a 'mere detail'. in sensing that there is a better world awaiting humankind (not just Americans), and it has to do with the thought and concept of 'equality'.  Yes, we are all equal.  But as sons and daughters of a loving Creator - NOT materialistic creatures, with there being no Purpose to life - to the whole life experience of mere higher primates - but simply in and for itself only, as the atheists think, and would have us believe.  And it is in that recognition, of our true identity, that our 'salvation' comes; in that we can now move from a lower level of consciousness regarding 'community' - whereby we are either in constant competition with one another for scarce resources, or are ruled by tyrants, forcing us to behave according to the rules of the dominant class at the time and of the place - to a higher level, whereby we share goods and services with one another - and give of our best in the process - out of a correspondingly higher motive than the age-old one of making a profit on the transaction.  Out of the highest motive there could ever be: 

out of gratitude to our Creator for life with meaning.

Out of, in a word: Love.

And in that kingdom, there is no competing quality, of Force.  So, what the Left has overlooked, is 'the little detail' of the motive behind the 'new reality'.  Where the individual is honored, for being a piece of one's own Self, as part of a larger Plan in and Purpose to life.. Not a mere higher primate browbeaten by the slavedrivers of an all-powerful and oppressive state - the 'collective'.

And with that change in attitude - from Power Over (in a particular demographic constellation, of, say, the 'progressives'/socialists vote, and the African American vote, and the Hispanic/Latino vote, and the under 30s vote, and the welfare class vote, and the single moms vote, and the LGBT vote - people considered as classes) to Power Within - we can, indeed, have a New World.  Just not the one envisioned for it by the hardcore Left.  Or the sinister far Right, with their fascist dream of takeover.

What is this New World going to look like?  The implosion of the established financial system, and with it, the current economic systems.  Morphing into a time of Abundance.  With free energy devices liberating the lot of us.  And helping us eliminate the last remnants of' 'money'.  As we move up also to a level where we can create our food and other items out of the energy of the universe, with what are known as replicators.  Until we don't even need them; as we move up to a plane of consciousness where we exist - as "facets of the great diamond of Being"2 - in our Lighbodies.  And from which we can travel instantly wherever we wish - literally.3 

All of this, because we awakened to the fact that we are more (much more) than our bodies.  That it is all a matter of consciousness.

Or you can have your competing versions.  And stay on the level of the problem.

Take your pick, America.   

But be aware,  Your pick is the pick for all of us 'higher primates'.  Or, more accurately: us 'spiritual beings having a human experience'. 

And about to supersede it.   

For most of us, at least.

For the rest?  

Pray that they will join us.

When they are ready to.    

But the rest, now have promises to keep.

With themselves.  

And therefore, with the rest of Us. 

For We Are All One.

And All IS One. 

In the vast scheme of things.  

Which we are about to go exploring in earnest.

Liberated from these 'meat bodies' as we will become.

In the Light, and Love, of our more perfectly reflected Being.

1 But not for a run for the presidency yourself [I would have added if I had had the room].  You do realize that you are not eligible either, don't you??  Or have you succumbed to the same sophistry that has kept the Republican Party from calling Obama on his ineligibility.  Be forewarned: It won't wash with patriots  And patriots are not going to be rolled over and stepped all over, and pacified, in their own political party, like the average American has, for not hearing clearly the details of the point, because the opposition party, the Republicans, have failed to make that point clear.

     For their own purposes, no doubt - and which may have had you and your future as part of that picture.  But hear me clearly:  You are not eligible, either, for that particular office - or, subsequent to the original Constitution, the office of the vice president as well, by (the proper, constitutional use of) amendment - because you were not born here of two U.S. citizen parents.  The intention of the Founders, in putting that requirement into the Constitution for that specific office - and that specific federal office only -  was to make sure that the prospective candidate for the office, who would also be the Commander in Chief of the Republic's military forces, would not be someone with dual loyalties and/or allegiances - like a dual citizen.  Like - precisely like - Barack Hussein Obama.  (And so the fraudulent birth certificate is only a crime on top of a crime against the Constitution - the rule of law in the country- already having been committed.)  

     And please don't succumb to the siren song of those who would say 'Oh it doesn't matter; a person doesn't necessarily have a dual loyalty just because they're a dual citizen'.  This is a legal matter.  A dual citizen has a dual allegiance whether he or she 'succumbs' to it or not.  Others can have such loyalties for other reasons; but they are not as subject to the mental state as one born in the legal state.

     And if 'the people' of a certain time in the nation's history want to change their rule of law - i,.e., the Constitution - they can do se.  The Framers were not fools in this matter either: they built in an amending process.  But - being no fools - they made sure that any changes in the compact between the States and the new federal government were not to be for light or transient reasons, i.e., a simple matter; the Constitution being designed to last.  And for a republic.  Not a democracy, with all of a democracy's weathervane proclivities.       

     The Left - as is their wont (as in seducing the interpretation of the Constitution away from the 'black-letter'-law interpretation, the bedrock, of 'original intent,' into the wide open spaces of 'contemporary standards' of belief about issues) - have tried to weaken this factor by playing fast and loose with the principle of 'original intent' in order to get their way more easily in the nation's court systems.  But even they tried to do things the correct, legal way in this matter, of the properly-understood definition of a 'natural born' citizen, by trying eight times between 2003 and 2008  to get an amendment on it going through Congress - and failed each time even to get it out of committee.  So it's obvious what has happened: the Democrats and the Republicans have done a quid pro quo on the matter.  And have tried to just slip it by the American people (since both parties want the Constitution gone around on the issue).  

     Some of whom - the true patriots of the American Republic - are mad as hell about this theft of the country by 'pragmatic politics'.  And aren't going to take it.  

     So we have a showdown coming on.   

2 As Sanat Kumara - known as the Planetary Logos - is reported to have described it, via a channeler going by the 'professional' name of tazjima.  

     If you're into that sort of thing.  If not: use your own words, to describe the Body of which we individual souls are all a Part.  

3 Oh - and along the way, where we will have experienced contact - called 'Disclosure' - with our galactic neighbors - and beyond! -  and with assorted Ascended Masters.  Almost forgot that little detail…of The Plan.

P.S.  A great article on this general subject area on tenthamendmentcenter.com today/Saturday, titled 'Establishment Left and Right Agree on Nullification' - Michael Boldin -  Aug. 2. He wrapped up his article thusly:

'James Madison, known as the Father of the Constitution, would certainly agree:

the states who are parties thereto have the right, and are in duty bound, to interpose, for arresting the progress of the evil and for maintaining, within their respective limits, the authorities, rights, and liberties, appertaining to them.

Smart tactic?  Absolutely.  It’s the only one that has even a chance of stopping federal power.   And that’s why the establishment hates it.'

For my part, I posted the article on my FB page, and added a comment that went something like this (I don't know how to access these things, to check it out now): 

'Excellent article.  Both the establishment Left and the establishment Right don't want this 'nullification' (constitutional) procedure to take off, wanting centralized control, each for their own reasons, both of which having the same 'principle' to them: Power Over.  The New World Order need not apply.  Both Hitler and Stalin have left the building.'

'Setting the record Straight on The Daily Show's Nullification Bashing' - Mike Maharrey - Aug. 2

On July 31, the Daily Show did a little piece ridiculing nullification. The sketch centered around a Second Amendment Preservation Act passed by the Kentucky Senate during the last legislative session. (The bill died in the House.) After they make the bill’s sponsor look foolish, they bring in a nullification opponent  to make the principle itself look foolish. LaRue County Judge/Executive Tommy Turner serves that role. I should note that in Kentucky, a judge/executive serves as the chief executive of a county – essentially the mayor of the county. They are not judges, and the job requires no legal training.

The following is a letter I sent to Judge/Executive Turner

Dear Judge Executive Turner,

I saw your little spot on the Daily Show.

I admit it was mildly amusing. A total distortion of nullification, but amusing nonetheless.

I know it’s supposed to be comedy, but the piece was clearly intended to make a political point. Little does the Daily crew realize – the joke is on them.

Did you know that the “nullification” bill passed by the Kentucky Senate was absolutely constitutional  - even according to Supreme Court opinion? The bill was a simple noncompliance bill that would have prohibited state cooperation with any federal attempts to enforce acts violating the Second Amendment. It made no provision for state interference with federal actions.

There is absolutely ZERO serious dispute about the fact that the federal government cannot “commandeer” the states (or their political subdivisions, local governments) to carry out its laws. None. Even the Supreme Court has affirmed this multiple times.

In the 1992 case, New York v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled that Congress couldn’t require states to enact specified waste disposal regulations.

In the 1997 case, Printz v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled that the federal government could not command state law enforcement authorities to conduct background checks on prospective handgun purchasers.

In the 2012 case, National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius, the Supreme Court ruled that a significant expansion of Medicaid was not a valid exercise of Congress’s spending power, as it would coerce states to either accept the expansion or risk losing existing Medicaid funding.

In each of these cases, the Supreme Court made is quite clear that in their opinion, the federal government cannot require the states to act, or even coerce them to act through a threat to lose funding.

Furthermore, the doctrine of nullification itself stands on solid constitutional ground. James Madison and Thomas Jefferson first formalized the principles. Madison actually gave us the blueprint for dealing with federal overreach in Federalist 46 – before the Constitution was even ratified.

Should an unwarrantable measure of the federal government be unpopular in particular States, which would seldom fail to be the case, or even a warrantable measure be so, which may sometimes be the case, the means of opposition to it are powerful and at hand. The disquietude of the people; their repugnance and, perhaps refusal to cooperate with officers of the Union, the frowns of the executive magistracy of the State; the embarrassment created by legislative devices, which would often be added on such occasions, would oppose, in any State, very serious impediments; and were the sentiments of several adjoining States happen to be in Union, would present obstructions which the federal government would hardly be willing to encounter.

So you see, while the Daily show clearly intended to ridicule those of us who advance the principles of nullification, they actually serves as the clowns in this scenario, because they obviously have no idea what they are talking about.

For further reading, I highly recommend this article. http://tenthamendmentcenter.com/2013/03/24/nullification-for-lawyers/

It delves more into the legal ground nullification is built on.

Sincerely,

Mike Maharrey

To his credit, Judge/Executive Turner seems like the type of person interested in learning. He sent me a courteous thank you and expressed interest in reading Our Last Hope: Rediscovering the Lost Path to Liberty.

Time To Get Back Into 'The Scene'

August 1

Dear Dr. Corsi,1

Thank you for your information regarding a Constitutional Petition For Immediate Hearings on the fraudulent nature of the document posted by Resident Obama on the official White House web site, purporting to be a true copy of his birth certificate.2

I have come to the conclusion that this whole thing -  this whole sorry mess of a matter regarding a fraud and a liar and a con artist having - with much behind-the-scenes help -  made his way into the office of the presidency of the United States, and been supported in his nefarious deeds whilst in that office by both deluded souls and intentionally aiding and abetting ones - is a moot issue; and that the man who calls himself Barack Hussein Obama is, after all, a high spiritual being.  It is now so blatantly obvious what he is doing that even the most obtuse of citizens - the most unawake and unaware of couch potatoes - must 'get it'.

Consider some additions - at least, as have come to my attention - to the litany of his and his administration's egregious activities.  As I mused just yesterday, in response to another mailing on this general subject:

'It's interesting to see how America has moved from judging a person by the color of their skin to doing so by the content of their character, now to doing so by the content of their prayers.  To quote from a newsletter I have just received:

'"CFJ is adding to its SPECIAL REPORT a raft of new examples of [I can't utter the word that is used here; to move on] Obama's lawless conduct including:

   * The IRS also targeted many conservative churches with punishing audits and investigations.  The IRS demanded copies of the prayers of conservative churches [my emphasis], as well as their membership lists."  What??!!  To continue, in that vein: 

   * The author of 'The ObamaCare Survival Guide,' journalist Wayne Allyn Root,3 reports he was audited by the IRS after his book became a national bestseller.  Mr. Root also reports that he has personally spoken with15 donors to the Mitt Romney campaign who were audited within 90 days of making their donations [my emphasis].  Ah.  The value of having donor and membership lists………

'…one of the values.  Besides simply having lists of your enemies.  For when the crunch comes…

'…and of which, there are always signs and portents.  For example:

* The IRS has gone after reporters and news anchors who criticized Obama during the 2012 campaign.  

'A little more detail on this point:

'"Also to be added to the report: the revelation that the Obama Justice Department ordered criminal investigations of FOX News reporters for doing their jobs during the 2012 Election year.

'"'The Obama Justice Department secretly obtained the phone records and emails of more than 100 reporters, journalists, and editors - with a special focus on going after FOX News,' Levey points out.4  'The purpose of this, of course, was to chill media criticism of Obama during the 2012 election.'

'"CFJ's legal team," the newsletter goes on, "believes this attack by an American President [sic] on the First Amendment's guarantee of freedom of the press is unprecedented.  And it is yet one more example reminding us that Obama has committed and continues to commit many serious violations of law [my emphasis].5 

'"'If we make a really strong case to the American people that Obama's total disregard for law represents a serious threat to our Constitutional Republic, this can have an enormous impact on the 2014 and 2016 Elections,' Levey says."' 

'But will we even get there, to them.  That is the question.'

So you see, Dr. Corsi: The intention is so blatant now that even the most initially fooled of citizen must be able to see it.  Must know, has to know, what is going on.  And so the 'high spiritual being' thinking about the man.  Because this man has brought the whole thing to a head - done us a great service - in showing us the way into the future, by showing us precisely NOT the way into the future. 

But - alas - it seems to have, still, escaped the awareness of many, many citizens; too wrapped in their own little worlds that they can't see the forest for the trees, meaning the details of their daily lives.  So, to whom I say, in support of your initiative regarding the apparent fraudulent nature of BHO's birth certificate:6 

'You in this generation have played fast and loose with that fundamental aspect of your nation's Constitution; and therefore, of the rule of law.

'And are in terrible trouble as a result.  Have brought the nation into terrible trouble as a result.

'For, smooth-talking, long-legged Mack Daddy Obama has seduced you into going into waters that are threatening to be over your collective and personal heads; and you are not prepared for it.  Are going to start thrashing around; flailing around, banging into each other, hoping to obtain some purchase, get some footing; something, anything to help you.  

'Fortunately, there is some help.  And it is from the only direction that can truly help you.  And that is, from up above.

'I hope you have learned the lesson well.' 

You're welcome to my mere pittance of financial support, Dr. Corsi; being retired, as I am, and living on the basic Social Security pension.

You are engaging in a worthy cause.

I wish I could be of more support.

Well; I, of course, can be.

I can pray.  

For you.

And for us all.

And for 'us all', I mean not just American citizens.

I mean the world.

For, 'Affairs are now soul size,' said the playwright.  Who added:

'The enterprise is exploration into God.'

Indeed, Mr. Fry.

Indeed.

2 (As to such a petition: As Dr. Corsi says in his letter, "It's our Constitutional right to petition…[under] The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and its Petition Clause, which states that as Americans we have the right to:

     '…petition the Government for a redress of grievances.'")  

3 (Another name that if you aren't aware of it, you should be: he was in the same class at Columbia University, and with the same major, that Barry Soetoro aka Barack Obama was supposed to be in - has said that he was in.  And never heard of him.  Nor did any of Root's fellow poli sci students.  Nor did at least one of the professors of that major.

     As to other professors at that university…well, let's just say that that university is known for radical tendencies.  And the CIA is known for knocking up fraudulent backgrounds for its, er, clients. 

     And what all did Obama get up to during that time in his life; to say, during his time in Europe, ostensibly spent in Pakistan?  How come there's evidence that he was, during that time in his life, at the Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow, that specializes in governmental overthrow??  And how is that he just happened to get a job at a CIA front in New York City, after leaving Columbia and before moving on to Chicago, and his short career there as a 'community organizer,' getting steeped in the 'Rules For Radicals' philosophy of Saul Alinsky???……and getting a scholarship to go to Harvard Law, paid for by deep-pocket Muslims………

      but I digress…………)

4 This is Curt Levey, President and Executive Director of The Committee for Justice, whose monthly newsletter 'Constitution Watch' - for August 2013 - I am quoting from.

     And the CFJ's SPECIAL REPORT that is being referred to is titled 'High Crimes & Misdemeanors'.  Which catalogues dozens of serious violations of law by Resident Obama and his administration.  

     And oh, those targets of the IRS, which list includes organizations with words like 'tea party' and 'patriot' in their titles?  Guess another word that is anathema to the Obama IRS: 

     'liberty'.

     I kid you not.

     That is just how blatant this whole thing has gotten.  

     The overthrow of the American Republic.

     Going on.  As we speak.


5 I trust you are familiar with the bulk of the outrages he and his administration have been pulling?   The other IRS matters?  The DOJ matters, including the AP reporter (besides the FOX News reporter(s)), and the DOJ blocking the cleanup of voting rolls to keep hidden from view the scamming of them by the Democrats?  The NSA matters?  The sinister and chilling activities of the DHS?? with the populace becoming subject right there alone to totalitarian takeover???
     Hyperbole?  Were you aware of other telling details; facts like how the Benghazi survivors have been forced to sign a non-disclosure agreement, so that the American people would never be able to learn the truth about the attack; at least not by a time that that truth would do any good?  Or how Obama has shut down our southern border aerial defense system?? in conjunction with such little details as that there is now a Hezbollah base in Cuba??? -
     We're not paying attention to details.  
     Which is, I submit, a function of mind-control activity that we have been subjected to, for years.  Which has led us to be taught - by experts in this field, once removed from the useful idiots teaching in our children's classrooms - that it is not important to learn how to spell correctly; just convey your idea however you can/choose to. Which philosophy results in students being trained - brainwashed - to believe that details don't matter.  A dangerous assumption, and presumption.
     DETAILS MATTER.
     'Just look at the man.  Not the details of the actions that he is involved in.  Just listen to him.  Don't think…'
     'Here - over here.  Don't look over there, at those mere details.  Just sideshow stuff - distractions - over there.  Look here. And see what I say.  Not what I do.' 
     We must learn - be taught - to discriminate.  (Which has become a dirty word.  For a purpose.)  'I before e excepts after c, and as in words like neighbor and weigh'…Yes, different cultures with the same language have different ways of spelling; take the UK/Commonwealth and the U.S. (and spelling changes over time).  But learn to spell the way your culture teaches; that is your doorway to knowledge - via that culture.  Your access, which is embedded with, and to, meanings.  And the cleaner and clearer the doorways, the better.
     When things were written, meaning was attached to those precise words.  Our job is to get to the meaning.  And the words used, and recorded, are the portal.
     Now, there is more than one way to grasp, and gain, knowledge.  There is this rational, left-brain way; and there is an intuitive way, whereby one can grasp meanings as a whole.  But, like the Google search engine, the clearer your input, the faster and more clearly it can respond.
     All of which is a subject for another time, perhaps. Just to touch on it here.  But in the meantime - if you're interested - a good book on this interesting subject is 'From Atlantis to the Sphinx'  by Colin Wilson.

      

       

6 not to mention the little fact that seems to have escaped so many people in this appalling matter: that the birth certificate itself is moot, since he was ineligible from the git-go, not being born of two U.S. citizen parents (according to his own testimony).  The whole point of the exercise, on the part of the Framers of the Constitution, having been to make sure - as sure as they could make it - that that particular office - and that particular office ONLY, of all the new federal offices being considered; with its also being the office - the unique office - of the Commander in Chief of the nation's military forces - had candidates for it who did not have CONFLICTING LOYALTIES OR ALLEGIANCES.     

     As a dual citizen would have.

     That is, a person not born of two U.S. citizen parents.

     Like, oh, say (can you see):

     Barack Hussein Obama.

     Or at least, the man who calls himself that.

     Which is part of the mystery surrounding the man.
     This man, whom the American people have bought, like a pig in a poke for their president.
     It is to shake one's head.
     In wonderment.  And sorrow.  And pain.
     And anger.
     But not too much of the latter.
     For it could cloud our thinking.
     As to how to get out of this mess, the best way.
     Without too much of that anger stuff getting in the way.
     Of rational thought in the matter.
     The matter, of our stupidity.
     For we are the ones who bought the pig in a poke.  At first simply on good faith; and then merely on the strength of a bill of sale.
     And a dodgy one at that.
     More fool, us.
     So who do we have, really, to point our finger at?  And shake it??......

P.S. A late addition to the 'discussion'.  But it's rather pertinent to the subject.

  I assume you are joking. People that are net tax consumers should no be allowed to vote. Democracy will destroy any country that lets people vote to take from their neighbors for their personal enrichment. Socialism and crony capitalism are both wicked and destructive. We have both and we must eliminate both.

  Amen, Doug. Hit the nail on the head. And that's precisely why neither of the two major political parties are or have the answer: they are both culpable. 
• 
  Conservatives should have realized long ago that the Republican Party was a sellout to big government - 'everybody in it for what they could get out of it' - and started strengthening a third party base, ultimately to force the fundamental political issue in the country: Either you're for big government or you're for limited, to say founding-vision, government: take your pick of parties. One round of elections might well have had to be sacrificed, until the new orientation could take over. But that's the short-term price you have to pay sometimes, to make long-term gain.

  Hopefully......or you'll just have to go through the whole thing all over again. That 'thing'?:

  While the rest of us move on. And on. And on...in loving resonance with - and understanding of - the process.
