Sit Down

    Much has been said lately about the speech given by Ashton Kutcher during the Teen Choice Awards, I even wanted to write an uplifting story to spotlight his Reaganist message, delivered in a contemporary voice that could connect with the young audience.  His words of work, opportunity and education were words that need to be repeated over and over to the youth of our nation.  At first I wanted so desperately to go down that path… but then I came across this list.

This is a list of Christian Churches, Schools, Organizations, Businesses, Hospitals and Homes in Egypt that have been looted, vandalized, burnt and destroyed by members of the Muslim Brotherhood  and its supporters over the past week (close to 60, well over 60 by now).

 

Not only has property been damaged but Priest have been kidnapped (most likely tortured and murdered over the past days).  Nuns have been brutalized and raped.  Christian families have been attacked, beaten, murdered and the young girls of these families (some as young as 12) are taken away repeatedly raped and then tossed into the street as discarded trash.  All of this can be traced back to the tinkering, the meddling, the policies and the manipulation of Obama, a man that Ashton Kutcher publicly supported (and I suspect still does).  So unless he is willing to publicly disavow the Obama administrations destructive policies, I have no time for him.  Vengeance is the Lord’s… I will leave forgiveness in his hand also…  I am not so starved for Liberals to see the truth that a few words will make it all better.  Mr. Kutcher, SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!

 

“Oh my God, I didn’t know it was this bad.”

“These folks are just days or weeks away from all-out bloodshed”

 

A quote from Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham during a joint press conference on their recent Egyptian visit.  REALLY???  Between the two of you and the committees you head or sit on, there should be no surprises.  You both have staffs to sift through mounds of information, agencies at your beckoning call and the best you can come up with is “I didn’t know it was this bad.”  A not-so-small fortune is spent on you so we don’t have to hear “I didn’t know.”

 

Mr. McCain, I’m a retired Air Force Crew Chief, I took care of the jets that pilots strapped on.  Above all else the safety, the lives of my aircrews were my first priority.  I did this by knowing, knowing my jet, knowing my crews mission, knowing my duties, my responsibilities.  I never wanted to look into the eyes of a wife, of a child and explain Daddy isn’t coming home because “I Didn’t Know…” when it was my job to know.  My final Mid-East deployment was my Commanders first, I pulled the Saint George medallion (that I had worn for years) from my neck and placed it in the sleeve pocket of his flight suite before launching him on his first bomber mission in a jet that I knew would bring it and him back safely.  I never met a pilot I wouldn’t lay my life down to protect… but I guess I’m no longer a Crew Chief… and you’re no longer a Pilot.  Gentlemen (term used loosely), I’m sitting in a Southern Indiana cornfield and I saw this coming.  What have you been watching the past several months?  NEVER MIND, JUST SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!

    Finally, our absentee Commander-in-Chief Obama, every time he has obtained any level of authority from low-level academia through mid-level community organization to national prominence his divisive, destructive and manipulative antics have resulted in a trail of devastation.  His track record of being unconcerned with the safety and welfare of others is now firmly entrenched.  While SEAL Team 6 went after Osama bin Laden he played cards, while the attacks played out in Benghazi Obama slept, now as the undefended Christians of Egypt are brutalized, raped and slaughtered at the hands of his friends in the Muslim Brotherhood, Obama vacations… again, (ever notice, when the $%!# hits the fan O runs away and hides).

 

Going on five years now we have endured, the world has endured, Obama’s Islamic propaganda; “the most beautiful sound” “a religion of peace” “ Islam’s role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance, and the dignity of all human beings” “dignity and peace in their Muslim faith.”  As with all propaganda, once exposed to the light it turns out to be a lie.  Islam is no longer a religion (if it ever was), Islam is nothing more than an excuse (a poor one at that), an excuse to brutalize, to torture, to rape, to pursue pedophile urges, to butcher, to murder.  Anyplace Islam is left to fester unchecked crushing oppression is the results, basic human rights are non-existent and instability/terrorism is exported.  The Muslim Brotherhood was propped up, financed and armed by Obama (using U.S. taxpayer money), this emboldened them to be dictatorial and non-inclusive of the Egyptian population.  Obama, you are fairly young with a long life before you, your legacy has been carved in stone with the blood of Egyptian Christians, the bodies of innocent children, the nation of Egypt rest upon your doorstep.  Obama, SIT DOWN AND SHUT THE …. UP!

    This is my 96^th story in the year and a half that I’ve been writing, just over 17,000 page views.  There have only been two stories that were difficult for me to write, the disappointment brought by the actions of one solder in Kill People and Break Things and the anger as a father telling the story of Malala’s Courage.  Both are paled by the emotions I feel right now.  The anger knowing this need not have happened, knowing that the mainstream media will never tell this story.  My sadness knowing thousands have needlessly suffered and thousands, perhaps millions more will suffer over the next few years, because of men content to set the world ablaze if it won’t conform to their warped vision.  There will be no speech, no behind-the-scene political deal and no peace-keeping action that will stop the atrocities or the horrors that will be endured. 

Maybe the only comfort I will find is that I did not stand by silently.

Spoiled Brat

    The other day I stopped in a local grocery store to pick up a loaf of bread, as I walked up to the checkout a little round boy (maybe 11 or 12) buzzed past me pushing me out of his way.  I took a moment of pause and considered calling him on barging past me but instead I watched as he went for the candy.  Almost indiscriminately he grabbed a hand full of candy from one box, then another and another, then he flung the bundle onto the checkout counter scattering treats from one end to the other.  The lady at the register glanced at me and rolled her eyes as she began scooping the mess into a pile, I gave her a little nod to go ahead and take care of the kid (I was in no rush). 

    She began dragging the candy bars, pixy stix and twizzlers across the scanner, finally she finished with a total of $15 and change.  The boy pulled a $5 bill from his pocket handing it to the lady, she looked at him and said "That’s not enough”.  He huffed and slammed his fist on the counter, turned and looked in my direction then started screaming “I need more money!”  A bit shocked I stepped back and looked around, then I noticed a man standing a few feet behind me, I stepped aside allowing him to pass.  He looked at the ranting boy and said “You have your allowance, maybe you should put some back” this really set the boy off, he came back with “NO! You need to give me more money!”  The man began to reach into his pocket.  I lowered my head shaking it back and forth in disbelief… I held the loaf of bread up as I stepped around the dysfunctional pair and passed the lady a couple of bucks.

    As I drove home thoughts of what I had witnessed drifted in and out, I thought someday that little monster will be an adult and people are going to have to deal with him, maybe I’ll have to deal with him again someday.  Little did I know I was only a few short moments away from that thought coming to be, little did I know I was only moments away from being told what I “needed to do” by a brat. I turned the T.V. on when I got home, and within seconds a clip came on showing a man speaking, he said.

“The bottom line is we’re not broke, there’s plenty of money, it’s just the government doesn’t have it” he followed with “The government has a right, the government and the people of the United States have a right, to run programs of the United States: health, welfare, housing, all these things…”  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36bjRh9rcd8

    The man was Minnesota Representative Keith Ellison (D), it sounds like in his opinion the government has a “RIGHT” to take as it sees fit.  Do I take a moment of pause, bite my lip and let this spoiled brat have his rant… I THINK NOT!  Fella, its time someone tells you something your father should have told you long ago. 

    You get an allowance, you have your allowance but you keep pissing it away.  There is no reason for those TRULY in need to go without necessary services.  The system “The Programs” you hailed are a rot with fraud, waste and abuse.  Let me give you a few examples of the wasted funds.

After causing a horrific accident while driving under the influence, Boston party girl Vivencia Bellegarde was found not only with one but three EBT welfare cards under different names and berated the investigating officer for paying for food when she gets it for free.  She is 25, healthy and an illegal immigrant.  If her name doesn’t ring a bell, google it and catch up… or search the name Edwin Alemany, it also has some nice EBT card abuse reading.

National Reviews Jillian Melchior exposed fraud and abuse in the Lifeline cellphone program (Obama phone), after telling the vendor she was not qualified for the program she was signed up eight times and received three free cellphones.  Even if she was qualified, by FCC rule she is limited to one phone, not three.

The Internal Revenue Service sent 23,994 fraudulently requested tax refund checks to the same address in Atlanta GA. The total, over $46 million.  Additionally, over 11,000 refund deposits were made into two bank accounts amounting to over $7.5 million.  Three locations received over 35,000 refunds, totaling over $53.5 million. $53.5 million gone.

I could list the billions of dollars pumped into Egypt to prop up a failed Islamic dictatorship, the hundreds of millions spent on green energy scams, or the hundreds of millions wasted by government agencies on over-the-top conferences (parties) but to be honest, it’s starting to become depressing and Mr. Ellison just isn’t worth it.

Note to Mr. Ellison, there is no government Bill of Rights, government has responsibilities and is accountable (two concepts that has been lost to you and your cohorts).  Be as much of a spoiled brat as you wish, stomp your feet, slam your fist, hold your breath till you turn blue for all I care, I’m not reaching into my pocket any more.  You’re going to have to decide, you can take care of what needs to be done or you can keep pissing it away but no more money, if anything maybe less. 

It’s time to put the candy

back on the shelf kiddo.

All of it.

Balancing act (that’s out of balance)

    Recent polls indicate Congressional approval ratings have dropped to the lowest point ever (8% to 10% +/-).  These polls have been used as an excuse for the President to push his agendas by edict.  They have been used by Harry Reid to call for procedural changes within the Senate (the same changes he vehemently argued against a few years back).  When pressed, most who disapprove of Congresses job performance are unable to differentiate between the Senate and the House of Representatives let alone name their Representatives.  On the other hand, of the people polled that did know the names of their Representatives, they approved of their members of Congress by 62%+.

    This leads to a bit of a disconnect, a bit of an imbalance,  if the citizens of any given area approve of their representation and continue to re-elect the same individuals every 2 or 6 years what change do they expect to see (I guess they just don’t like anyone else having Rep’s).  It seems that the citizenry of the Nation has lost site of the purpose of the branches and levels of government and the balance needed between them to be effective.  The people of the United States are looking for cures to local ills to come from the federal level.  A one size fits all fixes but consider this, rules and regulations that may be quite appropriate and beneficial for a major hospital in Los Angeles CA. when its servicing thousands of patients a day aren’t necessarily going to be workable at the health clinic in Cloversport KY. that may only see 30 patients a day.  Yet Congress has passed a law that doesn’t differentiate (and now the cracks are starting to develop). 

    Excluding the extensively publicized “Gridlock” in congress, when asked what people dislike about congress overall the answer is “The Pork” or special favors jammed into bills by members for their home districts… then asked what they like about their representatives… “They bring home the BACON”. 

    Myself I’m content with the gridlock, the debate, the inaction at the Federal level, the things that affect me and those around me need to be addressed at the local level.  The industry, the careers, the job opportunities in this region require certain skills that may not be needed in a place like Chicago or San Francisco but with the push for common core, another top down “one size fits all” initiative, it appears needed skills are not being taught.  A quick example, consider the performance of 19-year-old Rachel Jeantel during her time on the witness stand and her later revealed twitter comments.  It has been reported this September she will be a senior at Miami Norland High School… clearly by her own admission she is unable to read cursive writing, the tweets she sent out were peppered with spelling errors and her command of verbal skills speaks for its self.  Basically her reading, writing and communication skills fail to come up to 4^th grade level yet she has been moved along under the previously government mandated/funded (and teacher union approved) system and at least 2 years of Common Core.  Instead of marching on the streets for what happened to one youth, parents should be marching against what is being done to all their children daily.  Some may be thinking I’m being a bit harsh on young Ms. Jeantel… I don’t mean to be, I think the school system owes her an apology, the taxpayers a refund and the administrators some jail time for fraud.  In 2010 Mr. Jason Zimba (One of the architects of common core) admitted the goal is to “prepare each student for entry level jobs” (Pizza Hut) or for a “community college with non-selective entrance requirements…”  They expect this low bar goal to make us competitive in the world?       

    The ills of the nation will never be cured at the Federal level by passing another all inclusive, over stuffed bill or an agency distributing pages of rules and regulations meant to foresee every circumstance or predict every variable from coast to coast or southern border to northern border or from city to cornfield.  We have enough (more than enough) laws, rules and regulations to take care of our national interest (if they would be enforced as intended).  Thus far the shining light for the governments prescribed cure is a 45% increase in temporary help services accompanied by a 32% increase in welfare enrollment, it appears the ointment is worse than the rash.  Soon welfare recipient will top the list of fastest growing professions, our national product… DEPENDENCY.  The health clinic prohibited from providing for the needs of the local community, the young adult incapable of taking advantage of opportunities, the faceless name on a welfare check… all just statics to be shuffled from column to column by an out of touch and unconcerned federal bureaucracy, the cure will have to come at the state level, the county, the city level, or maybe from your own yard.

Time to bring balance back to the system

If you’re thinking young Ms. Jeantel may be an exception… think again, it seems she fits into the median range of her school.  Fair… or not she will be the face of Florida’s education system for the next few years… maybe the Nations.

A little background on Miami Norland High School achievement scores.

Above Basic Standard                    Basic Standard                   Below Standard

Reading:                          23%                                                     39%                                        38%

Math:                                13%                                                     37%                                        50%

 

Note: “Basic Standard” means only partial knowledge of subject… Are They Kidding, not even a working knowledge of a subject?  Is this the one size fits all plan of Common Core?  If Eric Holder wants to investigate a crime in Florida… skip Zimmerman and head for the schools.

Got No Dog in the Hunt

    Let me get this straight, somehow I’m to blame for what happened in Sanford Florida, the altercation, the shooting, the trial, the verdict… 

    It starts with a black youth (more like young man) walking through a Sanford FL. neighborhood when he noticed a Latin man keeping an eye on him (I don’t live in Sanford, I’m not a youth, Black or Latin… No Dog).  Then after speaking to a girl on the phone, the young man decided to confront the Latin man, suggested possibly because of some delusional homophobic rage (still no dog, I’m not black, Latin, a girl, young or homosexual).  Oblivious to situational awareness and his own limitations the Latin man was transformed from an observer to a victim of a homophobic beating (a hate crime perpetrated by the youth, still not me).  During the beating the Latin man draws a gun and shoots the young black man before the police arrive, when the police do arrive they look over the area, take statements from witnesses and judge it to be a case of self-defense (I didn’t strike anybody, draw a gun, witness the altercation, take or make any statements… my dog is still on the front porch).

    That should have been the end of the story… a sound bite on the local evening news and a few paragraphs in the local morning paper but that’s it as sad as it may be, after all this is a daily, even an hourly occurrence in a city like Chicago.  But that wasn’t the end of it, for some reason this story had legs; the story began to spread and pick up momentum, mostly because of the Latin man’s last name, Zimmerman… The first reports I had heard were that a “Black child had been gunned down by a white man in small Florida town”.  The story traveled all the way to the White House where it was picked up by Obama (another crises to exploit).  Obviously as the story traveled it wasn’t accompanied by any pictures, imagine the surprise when the black child turned out to be a young man that had instigated the physical violence and the white man was actually a Latin man that was getting a beating.  But it was already too late, Obama along with the national press had set the “Race Hatred” machine in motion the press began describing Mr. Zimmerman as the “White-Latino Shooter” as our… White-Black President adopted young Mr. Martin as one that could have been his own son.  (Although I write a few little stories, I’m not a member of the press, I’m not the White-Black President, I’m not a part of the race hatred machine… me and the dog are just sitting here, sun beaming down, another sip of iced tea).

    The race hatred machine is a hungry beast it wants blood, it wants vengeance.  Though the evidence did not warrant prosecution, political pressure was applied until charges were levied against an innocent man.  It took a special prosecutor to pursue this type of case, one not interested in fairness or justice… one was found, equally a special defense attorney would be needed, the co-counsels are Titan of the legal world.  Next a Judge was needed, the first Judge stepped aside due to conflict of interest, the second was removed by the District Court of Appeals upon defense team request, and the third Judge was able to stick with it.  Finally a jury was selected and the show trial was ready to commence.  (Me and the dog kind-a perked up… took note, the investigation had already pointed to self-defense… But I’m not a prosecutor, an attorney, a Judge or Juror, me and the dog… we’ll just see where it goes).

    The trial started and as expected it almost immediately began to collapse around the inept prosecutor’s head, even to the casual observer it was clear this case should have never been brought.  Instead of evidence the prosecution depended upon flights of fantasy, tugs at emotions, race batting and more than a bit of attempted evidence suppression.  The defense team had their way with the prosecutor’s witnesses and the evidence they presented was clear and concise, it was in the Jury’s hands and as expected they returned a verdict of not guilty.  It was the long way home but home just the same, the Jury confirmed what the initial police investigation found, it was a case of self-defense.  (All is right with the world, at least this little part. Maybe its time to call it a day, it’s been a long one…  Wait a minute what’s that rustling around out in the field, the dog just jumped up she sees something).

    The Race Hatred Machine is angry, it still wants vengeance, O’s not happy he wants a guilty verdict regardless of the evidence, regardless of the truth.  He’s unleashing his dog (Eric Holder), just make up a charge, O wants what O wants.  He’s deemed Mr. Zimmerman guilty much like the man that made the video they tried to blame the Benghazi attack on.  Obama wants Zimmerman in jail; it’s the only fitting outcome in the imaginary world he lives in.  O’s dog is giving speeches “We need to do away with stand your ground laws” even though this was not a case of “Stand Your Ground” Mr. Zimmerman was retreating to his vehicle when Mr. Martin pounced upon him. (Damn It! There she goes, the dogs after whatever’s in the field… I guess I do have a dog in the hunt).     

There were a few Y’s in the road that brought us here.

                Had Mr. Zimmerman actually took a "Stand Your Ground" posture he would have seen Mr. Martin approaching, he could have given a verbal warning to stop and then brandished his weapon if needed.  I’ve been drawn on four times, the trigger squeezed twice and hit once, trust me when I say, I became very courteous, very compliant and very humble looking down that little hole at the end of the gun.  Most likely Mr. Martin would have also.

                Mr. Martin was never taught the lesson to never pick a fight unless you’re willing to kill and/or willing to die… simple fact you never truly know how far your adversary is going to go.  I didn’t realize this myself until 1991, walking along the carnage on a little known highway in Northern Kuwait.

                As far as O and Mr. Holder… Deem someone guilty if you wish, it’s been done before… it will happen again I’m sure but those that deem guilt today can just as easily be deemed guilty tomorrow, it’s been done before… it will happen again, of this I’m very sure.

 

Obama, July 19, 2013:  “I think it would be useful for us to examine some state and local laws to see if it -- if they are designed in such a way that they may encourage the kinds of altercations and confrontations and tragedies that we saw in the Florida case, rather than defuse potential altercations."

As expected it always comes back to an attack on the law abiding citizens by our White-Black President…Another reason to keep them from being able to protect themselves.

 

I’ve got the answer… It’s not what you want to hear but it is the truth.

Quit undercutting family, faith and personal responsibility/accountability.

 

Running with the dog

The Tomcat

     

Background: Do Not (repeat) Do Not throw rocks at windows of a rundown old barn… The old Kentucky farmer will put a load of rock salt in your ham…  If this does happen Do Not climb into a hot tub of water, thinking you’re going to soak it out.

Clarity

    Upon the altar lies the victim, the unblemished lamb.  The high Priest steps forward, the sharpened stake in hand.  With few a ritual words proceeding the sacrament, the sharpened stake is raised, then plunged into the sacrifice.  The blood of the unblemished lamb is spilt.  For the moment the demands of the covenant have been met, the thirst of the almighty is quenched…  The vessel of the lamb is risen and led away from the altar.  The next victim is led to the altar, the demands of the covenant must be met, the thirst for fresh blood must be quenched.  The sacrament is repeated over and over.  The congregation voices its approval with cheers, the congregation joyously dances and repeats chants calling for more.

    A passage from the Torah or the old testament… No, the passage is from the headlines of the news, the words of our politicians, the actions of physicians, and the chants of the public.

    For some time now bits and pieces of separate stories have been rolling around in my thoughts, for some reason I couldn’t shake the feeling they were all one tale, though they all dealt with abortion I just couldn’t tie them together.  The Gosnell abortion murder trial, Nancy Pelosi’s “Sacred Ground” remark and the joyful cheering of the crowd outside the Texas Legislator after disturbing/filibustering proposed restrictions on abortion clinics within the state and their chants… “Hail Satan!” (a very telling choice of words, see link to video at the end).

    Then I came across this little statement that brought it all together for me.

“When the killing of unborn babies energizes your party, you may be evil.”

(By @dmbatten)

    I was slammed by the clarity, everything was exposed.  Progressivism is a new religion. The cheering crowd (the Democrat Voter) is its congregation.  The Sacrament, abortion… High Priest, the abortionist… The blood thirsty GOD of the Progressive religion, the politician…  Think of this simple fact, a congregation willing to joyfully sacrifice the youngest and most innocent among them, will be willing to sacrifice anything demanded of them.

    Although Nancy Pelosi claims to be a Catholic she used the word “Sacred” in defending abortion, her selection of the word is again telling and should not be overlooked.  The crimes of Gosnell as horrific as they were, had the children still been within the vessel, the mothers (even partially) it would have been legal and acceptable.  The chant, “Women’s Health Issue” “Personal Choice” or that the aborted children are just “Blobs of Tissue” are nothing more than phrases used to deflect attention away from the truth, a child that is capable of feeling pain is being gouged, ripped at and murdered.  Finally the man-god of the religion, Obama has displayed a vengefulness, an infatuation with being “Hands-on” in selecting targets from his “Kill List” and has instigated violent bloody altercations while standing idly by when able to stop others, the man-god enjoys the pain of others and has a blood lust.

    If you are an Obama supporter or align yourself with the Democratic Party its time you face the truth… you are a member of the Progressive Death Cult, your “mass” is held daily at the local abortion clinic, your communion is from the flesh of the unborn, your wine the blood of the most innocent, a child.  Much like Islam, the Progressive Cult is intolerant of any other Religion, it has begun to openly bare its fangs.  The Republican Party doesn’t fare much better, they have also been tainted by the infectious religion of Progressivism.  It’s time we demand better from our representatives, we need to support the good men and women, weed-out the deadwood and fight the EVIL ones.

    I was born into a Catholic family but lost my way very early, I trudged on for 40+ years with a day to day existence not a bad man but not a good man either… then just a few short years back I had another moment of clarity, spiritual clarity, not born of tragedy or crises more of a light touch and a soft whisper “I’ve got something for you to do”.  At 50-years-old, I was never a big reader but I began devouring books on the Catholic Faith.  I was not a writer but I began writing.  I didn’t know anything about putting my stories, my thoughts on the internet, someone was sent to show me.  Now I know why.

    I put this challenge out to all Catholics (and anyone else that will join me) start contacting your representatives not just once or twice but over and over.  Hammer them on their voting record if they aren’t supporting what we know to be good and right, commend them and let them know you support them if they are. (Don’t trust what they say, you can find their voting records here www.govtrack.us )  Use e-mail, their web sites, Twitter, Facebook, phone calls, contact them anyway you can.  I used this web site again to get the contact information www.govtrack.us in under a minute I sent tweets to all the Indiana reps. so I pulled up Kentucky and why not hit Ohio… in under ten minutes I hit the representatives of three states voicing my view.  We also need to invest time and treasure to support the good men and women willing to champion our fight not just the ones from your own district but all districts, all states because every vote affects all of us.  Time is short, if you haven’t noticed the Progressive cult has been working hard to undermine our Faith and with each passing day they become more embolden.  The mid-term elections will be critical to reversing the damage that has been done and thwart the plans they have for us in the future, 16 short months away.  If you have the time check your state and local level politicians too, a lot of them need a bit of guidance also.

    Our battle doesn’t hinge on abortion alone but that is the unholy sacrament that they prize the most, the most evil of them wear the moniker “Pro Choice” as a badge of high standing within their Death Cult.  The Progressive Religions Almighty (Obama) while touring the nations of Africa has repeatedly demanded these nations add abortion as a right to their Constitutions… he has demanded more sacrifices be made, his thirst for innocent blood is yet to be quenched.

To stand silent, to remain unresisting in the presence of evil is to submit to evil… to promote evil.

I hope you too feel the light touch

O.K. and WPA

Two little thoughts, two little stories this week.

…it’s all O.K. now

    As I read the Tweet I could sense the glee in the writer’s words:

“Newly revealed document shows IRS TARGETING leftist too”

  The first thought that came to mind was “DUH, the IRS is a government agency… of course they’re going to F-UP and snag the wrong organization every now and again”.  I opened the attached link to read the story (something that the sender must have failed to do) reading the little quip of a press release I found that the BOLO (be on the lookout) list used by the IRS identified the words “Progressive” and “Occupy” as cause for extra scrutiny…

    OH JOY, a word (or two) was on a list… not that any “Progressive” group came forward with complaints of delays or harassment (I wish they would, just to add more fuel to the fire of reasons to shut the IRS down).  Either way, the harassment of any group, conservative, liberal, religious, etc… by the IRS is cause for alarm and action (something lost on the tweet sender, but in her mind [@theReasonists] it’s all O.K. now).  The administration isn’t going to do anything other than reward the miscreants involved, but I have another thought.  I’d love to see any/all conservative organization involved bring suit for actual and punitive damages against the IRS for violating their Civil Rights, “Fair and Equal Treatment Under the Law” that’s what Dr. King fought for, that’s what many lives have been laid down for.

    The premise is very simple and clear, one organization, one group of people was targeted because of a word on a list while another, any other that also should have been targeted because of a word on the same list wasn’t… 

    Again, fair and EQUAL treatment under the law.

    Think of it this way.  A movie theater has a list saying to limit admittance of any green people and of any purple people also. 40 purple people try to buy a tickets all but one are turned away, 20 green people try to buy tickets but only 19 are allowed in, one is turned away.  Equal treatment?  Both were on the list, some got in, some didn’t.

  Not many things in life are a lock but this is the proverbial “WIN/WIN” situation for any of the targeted groups of people. 

1.)    The IRS admits to violating equal treatment under the law… PAYDAY!

2.)    The IRS brings evidence of targeting O’s base equally, putting a spotlight on what would be another of O’s big lie’s “Reward Our Friends” this can’t happen, because they weren’t targeted. (but I’d be ROTFL and DNPMP)

The official tally for those of you keeping score at home:

Conservative Originations targeted, 292… Progressive, 6… Yes, it’s all O.K. now.

Ma’am [@theReasonists], you are a vast cesspool of inspiration!

War Powers Act

    The War Powers Resolution of 1973, is a law intended to check the president’s power to commit the United States to an armed conflict without the consent of Congress (Passed by the Democratic controlled legislative branch, over riding then President Nixon’s veto).  As one war winds down another begins to escalate at O’s direction, Afghanistan and Syria may be the first thoughts that come to mind but these aren’t the wars I’m talking about. 

    As the IRS war on conservative organizations winds down O has called for intensified hostilities by the EPA to bring down the American coal industry and the electrical producers it supports.  Again, O has vowed to “Go around Congress” to pursue this economic assault on American Industry, Labor Force and Population.  

War is defined as: Bending an enemy, opponent, foe or advisory to your will by the use of overt/covert actions to include conventional and unconventional means.  Economic Warfare is just such an example of unconventional warfare.

    O has openly used the term “Enemy” and other such words to describe citizens, organizations and industries of the United States.  One of his senior advisors, Daniel Schrag, in a June 25^th interview blatantly called for a “War on Coal”.  

     According to the 1973 Resolution O has 60 days of activity and 30 days to withdraw from a conflict for a total of 90 days if Congress does not approve further action. O literally started unconventional warfare on both fronts on day one of his first term, he is well past the 90 day limit of the War Powers Act.  There is one small detail that must be brought to light “armed conflict” not that active discharge of weapons must occur but that an armed force is used.  As long as the IRS and EPA maintains one weapon, one round of ammunition within their agencies they meet the legal definition of an Armed Force.  Also geography location or the opponent need not be a nation, the war on terrorism is not against any nation.  We are not at war with Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, etc…  It’s time for Congress to invoke their privilege under provisions of The War Powers Resolution of 1973 and demand Obama, EPA, and any other armed agency cease and desist the “War on Coal” stop all actions overt/covert, discontinue all conventional/unconventional activities with the purpose of bending coal associated industries to your will.  If the legal Congressional demand is not met, immediately defund the EPA putting a halt to this illegal war.

    O is fascinated with using laws and procedures for unintended situations and activities…

“Go around Congress”?

Time he gets a taste of the same.  The criteria fits, use it!

It’s a bit warm but I’m going out’n lighting up a Big-O nasty chunk of Southern Indiana Coal…

Just for spite!

BTW: Over the past 10-years, for every ton reduction of coal use in the United States, China and India have increased their usage by 5.3 tons. Neither is inclined to reduce their consumption, in fact between the two of them one new coal fired electrical plant starts up every week.
