11th Hour of the 11th Day

It was as if the world had gone crazy. Young men, the best and brightest, those full of hope, were thrown into a churning machine where many perished as soon as they arrived. Millions of Europe’s best hopes expired in the trenches of the battlefield. It was war at its worst. It was dubbed the “war to end all wars”. It ended out of exhaustion on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918.

No kings need apply

An article was written stating christians demand a king in a political candidate. No we don’t.

Christans do not demand a king. Christians should demand someone who loves their country and its people more than power and theirself.

The problem is too many are willing to be led by marketing, news media, and personality rather than sound wisdom, self-education, and sound decision-making.

Abdication of self-governing responsibility leads to dictatorship by others. In the USA, our government is based on the premise that the adults are required govern or manage their own affairs. That responsibility is not given to others.

Everywhere else on Earth, the responsibility of governance is to the state – whether dictator, monarch, or elite assembly.

I count it an extreme privilege to have been born in the time I am and in the country I am where my dependence is not on the favor of a state system but on self determination and individual sovereignty.

I am not dependent on a political savior. I am not so much anti-Obama as anti-bad governmental management.

Our founding leaders understood the US government was based on managing the connectivity of all citizens and not determing how those not of the patron class were to live.

The USA does not need a king, despot, nor ruling assembly. The USA needs only those who are willing to serve their fellow countrymen and the benefit of their nation.

No kings needed here. No kings need apply.

14th Amendment – Being under jurisdiction

The Fourteenth Amendment’s guarantee is more than just being born in the USA. The Fourteenth Amendment guarantees the citizenship of those naturalized or those born to USA citizens.

Too many people have misinterpreted the Constitution to say “if they are born here, they are US citizens.” That would be wrong. To be a citizen of the USA you have to be under the jurisdiction of the US Constitution; meaning to say, the Constitution has to apply to you.

Budgets, No Budgets for Fed

The current US Congress, White House, and Washington bureaucracies do not understand budgets and their purpose. To most, a budget is a piece of paper that says this is what we will spend but you know we will exceed that. Why? Why are there so many politicians and fiduciary gluttons in government? Whatever happened to managing the affairs of state to the benefit of the people? The early Presidents of the US warned following citizens to pay off the government debt in the same year or in a reasonable time. It is a form of insanity to deny reality and truth. I think they call it dementia.

Blind Bloated Ticks in Congress

Recently there was a “crisis” in Washington DC among the managers of government. They had overspent, politicized, and planned for appropriations legislation to come to a dramatic confrontation of one party against another; and it was very exciting to those in “news” media. The Executive Administration of POTUS Obama “shutdown the government.” It was quite dramatic, people were laid off (furloughed), and completely untrue. 17% of the government was shutdown; just the parts to create drama and news coverage. The end result to all the drama resolved on cue; just as any televised mini-series or telenovela. For all of the drama and finger pointing, what really happened was more politicking and deal-making pork-barrel spending. The initial argument was that the Federal government ran out of money, so they needed a special funding bill to cover spending to year-end to keep the government running. It was a drama ruse. Plain and simple. The plan will take the Fed deficit from under 17T$ to over 17T$. There was and is no plan to limit or control spending toward being balanced or less than income. It is spend-spend-spend politics.

Simple accounting for US Fed

It is October 2013 and the federal government of the USA has been “shut down” due to arguments over budgets and funding Obamacare. Well, the Fed really is not shut down. The only things “closed” by the Obama administration are things that would make others lives inconvenient or painful; everyone who is not an Obama-friend that is.

International Law, Not Really Binding

On September 10th, the #POTUS, Barack Obama, mentioned Syria did not abide by international law. What governing body edicted this law that is required to be internationally obeyed? My short research on the subject could not find any such dictating and enforcing entity. It is not the UN. So, who?

On Lincoln the movie

I finally watched Spielberg’s Lincoln. I must say the movie deserves every recognition it received. The writing, direction, production, and performances were all very well done. I believe the men and women portrayed were justly honored. It left me wondering and in tears.

On cancelling WH tours

Here’s a thought:
The people who manage the White House by cancelling WH tours, are they trying to create an even greater separation of the Presidency from the American people… for whom the POTUS supposedly works?

When the public servant and those who work for said servant forget for whom they work oligarchy, aristocracy, and tyranny are waiting in the shadows and the People for whom they work have become mere vassals of the State.

Non-Issues in Current Politics

I am disappointed and find it laughable that there are people complaining already about certain states of affair within the USA; especially from the Demophiles and Obamaphiles. Yes, I just used two new words. Feel free to use them for those who love their political party and its leader more than they love sense or their country.

The demise of the Twinkie has been in the headlines more than ineffective, overspending US governance, fiscal mismanagement in Europe, further political encroachments by China and Russia, religicide in Africa, rockets sent into Israel by Hamas terrorists hiding in playgrounds in Gaza, ineffective UN leadership, and global economic as well as ecologic challenges. But, somehow the Twinkie is more important than that.
