A world gone mad...







"Is the system being overwhelmed right now? It sure seems that way to more and more people..."



Last night I attended a Tea Party Patriot meeting. The main topic of discussion was voter fraud with an emphasis on felon voting. There was an avalanche of information to absorb. Much bigger problem than I thought it was. My eyes were opened to many things I was unaware of. How the other side is gaming the system to get more felon (Democratic) votes. How some on our side, with proper intentions in their hearts, may have become duped by this issue.

On the way home, I was thinking about all I had learned. Mostly, how much I don't know about this issue. That is when it hit me (again). We are being bombarded with country changing issues all the time. Constantly. It is 24 X 7 and then some. The abuses by the IRS (still a problem), Social Security solvency, state tax on Social Security, a still broken VA system, cops being shot by thugs, ISIL going on a killing spree and not being stopped, out of control illegal immigration, body part sales from criminal abortions, and on and on and on.

Then I thought about a book I read decades ago by Alvin Toffler called Future Shock. That we were coming into a time of too much everything. Too many choices, too much information, too much selection, and now too many issues. I thought about a conversation I had at the fair with a gentlemen about my age. He told me he was "checking out". There was just too much that needed fixing. And everyday it seemed like there was something else. He thought the country was gone. It is a lost cause. He said for the sake of his sanity, he just is not going to "receive" any more.

There are many today who think this is a part of a grand strategy by the man in the White House. To really effect the "fundamental change" he wants for America, he needed to overwhelm the system. It is a classic Cloward-Piven play. Overwhelm the system so things start to fail. Then replace the our system of government with a massive socialist welfare state. 

Well I am not going to check out. I, like many of our veterans, am an oath keeper. Many of us are not part of the Oath Keepers organization, but we still remember the oath we all took with no expiration date. We will protect and defend our Constitution. And we will start by making sure we can elect a President in 2016 who believes in that oath. Who believes in our Constitution. Who believes in this county. Who understands the true meaning of American Exceptionalism.

What saddens me almost as much as what has happened to our country is this - how so many good people can be blind to what is going on. How so many have been duped. How so many good Republicans have gone to St. Paul or Washington and changed. Many have had the kool-aid. Not just a little kool-aid, gallons of it. 

"We the people" own this country. Not George Soros, not some lefties from academia, not foreign interests. Ownership today remains with "we the people". And "we the people" need to get ready for the fight of our lives. And we need to be prepared.

Step one - get informed. Step two - get involved. Step three - educate our low information friends and neighbors. Step Four (and this is a big one) - expose the lies being told by the other side. Most on our side have always been on the side of truth. The truth will always set us free. It will set our nation free. We all need to free the truth from the avalanche of lies which are now try to bury it.
