Rounding Corners...

As we get closer to Election Day, as with many years before, we are going to be hit with such propaganda to the likes unlike we've ever seen.

There's no disputing, given her criminality and corruption, Hillary Clinton is the most unpopular candidate we've ever seen in our lifetime. She has a long, shrouded past in subverting and diverting to the point she makes Oscar winning actors look weak. She's a professional propagandist with a reputation steep in lying and deception.

That being said, the Left - utilizing all the millions raised from Warren Buffett, George Soros and the Koch Brothers - will be to divert and subvert against the anti-globalism tenor of today's voting climate. They don't want you to not vote for their favorite cause - self-enrichment through the yard sale of America. And it's not just the Left either - it's the Right Establishment whom rally to keep the myths alive about Trump. He threatens them all. They can't run the same table when he becomes president. A table we all want destroyed much like they want to destroy America.

Like Britain last June, we are not for sale. America's bargain basement part sale is closed for business - once and for all.

Our own emancipation from the proposed slavery of TPP and TiSA looms in our foregrounds - along with every aspect of our American life that offends few but is made to seem like it offends all by Social Justice profiteers like those stated above.

The real deal is Donald Trump scares the hell out of them - hence, why the Left is desperate to take away anything regarding his message of making America first and raising the bar back to prosperity for Americans.

Fact is, the world, on a whole, it much weaker when America is weak, too. Weakened countries leave the globe ripe for the picking when it comes to the globalists' demagoguery.

We can see evidence of this in the Corporate and MSM treason perpetrated everyday in every medium known to man. They are working hard to divert voters and give us new red shiny lights and whistles to whisk us away from the task at hand: Saving America from the brink of extinction.

Wake up, America. This isn't about police brutality, racism, sexism, or any of the other 'isms' Clinton called out during her infamous turret moment where everyone was proclaimed as an irredeemable deplorable in the Trump basket. She knows Trump supporters aren't any of those things - no, far from it.

We're WORSE! We want to save the country from the elite profiteers bent on stripping her for parts and selling her off piece by piece.

As Americans, it's unAmerican to allow this to happen! It's time to put an end to this charade and begin to rebuild our country from it's ideological war-torn state to the country we inherited from our ancestors who had a dream and made it happen!

Keep your eyes on the prize! Don't fall for the fodder of those who want to enslave us all!

BOOK REVIEW: Confessions of Congressman X

The building has a way of wooing even the most cynical person as it represents our government. Second only to the White House, it emulates our sense of the Constitution, puts us closer to our founding fathers... and now, unfortunately, corruption!

Congressman X is a fast read, but the pages are packed with the disdain most representatives feel about we the people. Starting with adjectives as 'Sheeple,' 'Lazy,' and uninformed, it comes clear as glass exactly what the congressman (a senior Democrat) thinks about us. And in many respects, his thoughts are justified. Most people do vote on their party line rather than looking at candidates for proven track records and integrity.


Perfect example is to look to our current election...Look at everyone rallying around Hillary Clinton - a person who is clearly unfit for the White House due to her criminality and blatant dishonesty about Benghazi, her emails and everything else in between. She's psychopathic yet, many support and believe the mythological called the Right Wing Conspiracy. We all know it's pure garbage yet, some of us don't want to believe she could every be so bad, they wouldn't want her moving next door much less leading the country.

He comes right out and admits, he'll do anything or say anything to do his number one job, keep his position on the Hill. Cash is also king in DC. There's no splitting words about it. Therefore, when Donald Trump says he's not pandering to the Special Interest groups, he's in a very rare sliver of a minority. Everyone on the Hill passes legislature with a wink, smile and handshake loaded with pay to play money. Refreshingly, he doesn't parse words - he lays it on the line and tells it like it is.

Much of congressman's confessions are nothing that most haven't suspected. In fact, I'd be very suspicious if he said the Congress was all merry men and women, looking to fulfill some Mr. Smith legacy.

It's a good read and short, so you can get through it in an hour. Worth reading, because while it's a hard pill to swallow, much of what he says is true. It's up to us to stop voting for people based on the D and the R -- those who don't hold any values and quick looking for the next quick fix. Those quick fixes only yield  nonsense, waste, abuse and most fail from oversight. Didn't your parents every tell you there's no such thing as a good short-cut?

The instant gratification voters along with big special interest donors dictating law are the reasons our Republic has suffered many blows. This book provides us with a cautionary tale; its time for voters to start looking and thinking outside-the-box and quit yammering about nonsensical things that are minutia in regards to the big picture items.

Give it a read, you won't be disappointed - well, you will be disappointed but only in yourself...

Note: A special thank you to the reader whom recommended this read. It did not disappoint.

Independence?



By Thornton Crowe

On Independence Day weekend, I thought about what this holiday's remembrance is really all about and why it's meaning now is more pertinent than ever before in most our lives. For those who embrace this election's importance, this is a somber holiday - not just an excuse for a three-day weekend.

Washington, Jefferson, Adams & Franklin
Our founding fathers had great ideas. They were educated men consisting of landowners, lawyers, inventors, philosophers and business owners, who carefully thought out the way to govern the new nation. They had a combined focus and goal to eradicated themselves from the Crown and launch a most extraordinary experiment. The United States of America.

The two main ideas became apparent in their planning. A) To guarantee inalienable rights which are prescribed by God, which protect our Right to pursue personal happiness in a free land. And B) to preserve our country's sovereignty. The Constitution provided a framework, giving directives to three branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. These branches of government were placed specifically to keep power from becoming a centralized power base - leaving the power to the individual states' citizenry to self-govern.

Their quotes about freedom, liberty, pursuit of happiness and self governance have survived the 240 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 2 and its adoption by the united group of the original thirteen states on July 4, 1776. Yes, it's been 40 years since we celebrated the 200 year anniversary; yet, America is a radically difference country today than it was even 20 years ago.

Was this radical turn what Thomas Jefferson envisioned when he penned the Declaration of Independence that birthed our Nation?

After much study of Jefferson's writings and scholarship, I seriously doubt it...

Today, we're happy to let the federal government dictate every facet of our lives - right down to personal habits and vices. Under the guise of  common good, we have handed over our rights and freedoms one by one to people who know no better than any of us what is in our best interest and well-being. In return, they've taken no time at all to strip our rights to minutia while grossly overstepping their constitutional boundaries.

Now look at where we are...

United Nations
We are a country that folds to its minority because they throw elaborate temper tantrums. The Minority dictates our behaviors and 'free' speech because of the laziness and apathy of the Majority. We now have a presidential candidate that is the focus of an FBI criminal investigation and yet, many don't appear to care she's untrustworthy, dishonest and corrupt. Our lawmakers are promoting globalism which strips away everything the Founding Fathers fought for and were against (the reason they revolted against King George) -- including our right to self-governance. Now these supposed elected by the people representatives are moving us towards being under the United Nations - a global conglomerate that even FDR detested and had no desire for the US to join.

What have we become? Is it time for America to reinvent itself or is it time to go back to what made this nation the super power it once was. Many will nay-say and think, "But, Mr. Crowe, we're still great..." But are we?


We defer our rights so massive invasions of illegals and refugees to come here to take our jobs, rape our women and children as well as threaten the very existence of our community  enclaves like the LGBT community! Is this really greatness? 40 years ago, we hadn't experienced a terrorist attack on our soil with the exception of Pearl Harbor in 1941. Yet 15 years later, we are cowering not standing up to the very ideology that portrayed one of the most violent events in our country's history - 9/11.

Paid agitators burning our flag
Why are we at this juncture when the very basis of our country was founded on solid principles and for 200+ years, served its citizens and our industry well? How did we get here and why is one party so hell-bent on taking away the greatness of our nation? Why do we condone people burning our flag?

Why have we been so quick to give up our freedom for the acceptance of the failed Welfare State of Socialism?

Therefore, on this weekend designed to remember our Declaration as a Sovereign Nation, perhaps it is now more than picnics and beach days - but also with this year, a time to reflect and think carefully, where you as a citizen want this country to go from here.

This election boils down to two conflicting idioms: Nationalism verses Globalism. Nationalism being remain a free sovereign nation or Globalism meaning we completely wipe out what this nation has founded on 240 years ago.

Donald Trump (R) & Hillary Clinton (D)
 If ever there was a time, it's now a time for choosing...

On that note, I leave you with this parting video from Ronald Reagan, whose words are as true now as they were in 1964 - we can clearly see his prophecy in our reality today. It's worth the thirty minutes out of your long weekend merriment to check out.
 
This is perhaps the last election to correct our course and destiny! I have faith there's hope for us yet.

How say you?
