Step into the fray

Most humans will inherently do the right thing…or at a minimum won’t do the wrong thing.

This isn’t a Pollyannic view or a glass is half full mentality.  It’s how most of us are.  Otherwise nothing would ever be accomplished.  Most crime (aside from drug usage) happens in short bursts.

Tiny amounts of time.

For anyone who has been in a fight you know most altercations are over in less than two minutes although for some it may seem much longer, and for those of you who don’t believe me…put on your running shoes, go outside and sprint as fast as you can for 60 seconds.  Most won’t be able to continue for another 60 seconds and that doesn’t take into account someone trying to tear your head off at the same time.

I digress.

It seems we are allowing a tiny portion of the American population to dictate how the rest of us will live.

No, I am not talking about Muslims, gang-bangers, or CAIR (Council For American-Islamic Relations and yes this is the same group the UAE (United ARAB Emirates) designated as a Terrorist Group and yes they have access to the White House (see Muslim Brotherhood).

I’m not talking about bankers or attorneys.

I’m not even referring to the Occupy Wall Street/Hands Up Don’t shoot/Black Lives Matter crowd.

I’m talking about Washington D.C.

I’m talking about the less than 600 humans who beg for our money and votes and then spit in our faces while answering to their multimillionaire/billionaire donors.

I’m talking about the less than 600 humans who choose to collectively endanger our freedom by crushing us with debt, have stopped the enforcement of law (unless it fits their agenda) and continue to attempt to separate Americans by using oppression and disgusting propaganda.

But then again these humans were chosen by us.

What are we thinking?

We aren’t.

Everyday on my way to work I drive by what used to be referred to as a lake.

Folsom Lake to be precise.

Every 24 hour cycle the “lake” disappears as the soil seems to rise up reaching for the sky.

This is the same sky Jerry Brown and his cohorts are praying will deliver an El Nino of the Century replenishing the ground and providing the most important requirement of all living animals and hundreds of thousands of humans living in Folsom, Roseville, and surrounding areas.

Water.

Are the powers that be dredging the lake to allow for the capture of as much agua as possible if and when the prayers of the hypocrites are answered?

Of course not.

That would make too much sense.

Let’s just increase the population while requiring  all property owners let their lawns, plants, and trees go without water.

In other words…die.

This is the “green” party?

Hardly.

The Democratic Party in California ( and America) only cares about…power.  But because they’ve been in charge for so long they’ve begun to drink their own “kool aid”.

They know the Republican Party has nothing to offer.

In this they are correct.

But the three decade experiment known as “progressivism” is dying on the vine.

Literally.

Progressivism or “Compassionate” Conservatism is over.

The Me Generation of politicians has loaded America with drugs, sexual dysfunction, and debt.

It’s time to embrace American values.

Sobriety, loyalty, and a solvent currency.

It is time to not only shed the skin of the snake wrapped around Lady Liberty but to also remove the parasite known as Liberal boasting in one party and hiding in the other.

But if the Donkey and the Elephant are the only ones to step into the fray then the die must be recast.

Time for a new roll.

Time to unleash the Lions of America and restore the message.

America first.

American only.

But this isn’t going to happen unless the individual Citizen engages by staring into the mirror and then stepping into the fight.

You don’t even have to leave your house to do it.  Just share the columns.

Social media is irrelevant unless it is used.

I’ve spent thousands of dollars just on Facebook promoting the columns I’ve written.

It costs you nothing to hit the share button.

Over the last year thousands of you have but we have to move faster.

The debt in increasing, human trafficking through our border just claimed the lives of more women and children.

This isn’t hyperbole.

It happens every day.

I will be in Detroit next weekend on the 11th and 12th meeting with my American Brothers and Sisters as I see the Motor City and its suburbs in person.

On the 13th I will be on the radio with Tony Schwartz and his show FreedomWorx found on CaveRadioBroadcasting.com from 2:00-5:00 pm Eastern Time.

Bring your voice and join us in the reclamation and restoration of OUR country.

I will finish with this thought.

A column I recently wrote had over 50,000 views.

Collectively the column gathered around 10,000 pieces of information, likes, shares, or comments.

Imagine what would happen if the other 40,000…got involved.

Step into the fray America before the fray steps on us.

10 million voices

I believe I was ten, maybe eleven. My family was visiting my aunt and uncle in Lakewood, CA. Standing outside in the front yard with my younger female cousin a voice erupted from across the street.

“Hey Fatso!” I heard.

I looked across the street. Who was this kid talking to? I’d never seen him in my life not to mention I was skinny as a rail. I heard my cousin answer back.

“Just shut up and leave me alone.”

I looked at her as the punk kept calling her names.

“Who’s this guy?” I asked.

“He’s this kid in school who won’t leave me alone. He’s always calling me fat and Miss Piggy.”

Now for those of you who’ve read Late Bird you know I am a peaceful person who HATES two things.

Being told what to do…and bullies.

It wasn’t that I wasn’t scared.

I was.

It wasn’t that I wanted to be the hero.

I didn’t.

I just knew I had to deal with this regardless of outcome to me.

I looked across the street and said, “Leave her alone.”

The bully laughed and said those words I’d heard too many times.

“What are you going to do about it?”

I sighed internally and gave my patented answer.

“Do it again and you will find out.”

Eventually I shortened my go to line with bullies. I borrowed from the Rock.

“Go for it” was shorter and to the point.

The bully decided he could handle the situation and crossed the street yelling profanities the entire way. As soon as both of his feet were on the sidewalk (I’d moved to the sidewalk to engage him. Never let anyone walk up on you in any situation.) I hit him as hard as a 10 or 11 year old could, right in the mouth.

The word “fatty” disappeared back from which it came as the bully fell to the ground crying.

I shook my head wanting to cry too.

Hurting someone isn’t who I am.

If it comes down to them or me…well…I will do everything I can to ensure I will see another day.

It doesn’t mean I will enjoy doing what I have to do.

I don’t.

I helped the bully up off the ground and asked him if he was okay. He said he was.

“Do you understand why I hit you?”

“Yes” he muttered.

“She is my cousin. I’m here every summer (I wasn’t but he didn’t know that)…leave her alone.”

He promised he would and walked off crying.

My cousin, who isn’t fat, went on to earn a masters degree and became a high school principal.

I am 44 years old and unfortunately have had lots of situations similar to this over my lifetime.

This one still bothers me…but it doesn’t stop me from the realization if the defenders don’t stand then more and worse abuse will happen.

We are currently being throttled by bullies who we’ve elected!

Every time a new opportunity arrives we turn our backs and say “yes sir may I have another.”

Enough!!!

There is a better way!

There is a brighter path!

America is the way and Freedom is the path and our message roars louder everyday!

This isn’t the land of Clinton, Bush or Obama.

This is the land of the farmer, the truck driver, the teacher who spends their own money to educate our children!

This is the land of the hardest working human beings ever to exist. This is the land of the most generous, loving, giving people in history.

This is the land of the greatest defenders of freedom ever! The land of the American Soldier! Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and the ever present American Militia who take their guidance from two things.

The Big Fella Upstairs and the United States Constitution!

We have work to do.

Some of it won’t be pleasant.

Killing cancer never is and this cancer is pervasive and running through OUR country.

OUR America!

Roughly 600 politicians and judges are dictating to you, to me, to us.

Not gonna happen.

10 million voices.

Join us America.

10 million truth speaking American protectors against 600 lying cowards.

Time to cure cancer.

AMERICA first!

American only!

Shoulder to shoulder.

One voice at a time.

Faux News…the only French the “liberal” knows.

Exiting my local gym a few days ago I paused and looked to my left.  A Prius was idling (maybe it was parked, you can’t hear them).  On the back of the bumper was a sticker that said Faux News in big bold letters and in parentheses below (FOX News) in case their attempt at humor wasn’t understood.  I guess that makes sense.  Liberals in general aren’t the funny type.  They are very faux serious.

I started laughing as I walked to my fossil fuel burning, beautiful nine year old, loan free truck.  As I loaded my gear into the back I continued laughing at the absurdity of the Obama Acolyte.

Let me first say I am not a big fan of FOX News.  They have definitely lost their way.  To call themselves fair and balanced and then stack each show with Bush and Obama apologist/propagandists is asinine.  I rarely watch it anymore because they are usually well behind the internet or my personal Facebook news feed when it come to timely factual information.

Of course they are miles ahead of MSNBS who could not report a fact if their lives depended on it.  I will occasionally watch the Morning Joe Show to see how many times the “progressives” (see traitors) couch their words or struggle with facts they don’t want to report.

It’s like watching children eat sour candy with their faces contorting trying to squirm their way through the Obama Administration’s lack of ability to tell the truth.  The other shows on MSNBS don’t even try.  They just open their mouths and let the lies fly.

I’d like to welcome Brian Williams aboard.  He’ll fit in perfectly.  Maybe he and Sharpton can get together and make up combat stories about saving each others lives.  Oy vey!

The reason I laughed about the Prius, Faux News sticker is because…it’s funny.

The electric car may end up being the worst invention ever.

First it still burns…fossil fuels.

Where do these people think electricity comes from?  Captured lightning strikes? Solyndra?

I mean come on already electric car owners. You are driving around in overpriced vehicles that still burn energy coming from coal or natural gas.  In case you weren’t aware…both are fossil fuels or in other words…they come from the Earth.

There is nothing wrong with coal or natural gas.  It’s all in the application.  In fact there are many wonderful things about coal and natural gas.  One of these things is referred to as heat in the winter to keep from freezing to death.

What’s that Prius owner?  You are using less of these things than the rest of us not to mention you get to drive in the car pool lane with only one driver?

The driver part is true…for now.  But here in California you are about to be sent a yearly bill because you aren’t paying enough gas tax for the roads you are driving on.

What?  You weren’t aware of this?  It sounds like a bait and switch?

That’s because it is but never fear Jerry Brown should have a new vehicle for you to head to Bakersfield on soon.  You can trade in your cars and ride the train!

You don’t want to go to Bakersfield?  Well there’s always your bicycle.

Maybe you’ll just keep your car and pay the bill?

Sounds good.

I’m sure driving around in a vehicle surrounded with many batteries running at maximum capacity should be fine.

You are akin to your own little nuclear power plant!  I’m sure that will be great for your skin.

But I do have one question while you’re driving around in your mini Chernobyl giving FOX News free advertising…where do you think all these batteries filled with acid go once they are no longer useful?

I should ask Tesla founder Elon Musk?

I guess I could but why would I want the opinion of someone who is creating moving objects surrounded by acid whose business is largely supported by government grants.  Grants that will disappear overnight along with many electric cars when the 18 trillion dollar debt bubble bursts forcing the State of California to triple your fees because…well hey…they know you have the money.

How do they know this?

Because you’ve been saving it up driving on the roads the rest of us are paying for!

Never fear progressive poindexter.  I am sure your Czar Barack Hussein Obama will come up with something similar to Cash for Clunkers to get your radio-active death traps off the road before he exits stage left to retire in Palm Springs, where the grass is green, while the rest of the State dies from overpopulation and poor planning.

Ah…don’t you just love the smell of progressive hypocrisy in the morning.

Of course we have real issues happening in the world.  Whether someone wants to drive an overpriced Nine Volt around with some French on the back bumper is part of freedom.

Free to be as tuned out to the real world as possible.

Unfortunately freedom can collapse when left unattended and ignored and this ignorance is forcing a collapse in and on America.

The taxation burden being put on the American worker is egregious.

The debt being piled on the American citizen is a crime.

The brutality happening throughout America to women and children because of our open border is unforgivable.

I read hundreds of comments (almost daily) on the internet about taking America back by force.

“America is too far gone.  Voting doesn’t matter anymore.  Everything is so corrupt”.

Fair enough.

This is why we are here.  To provide a better path.  A brighter way.

But before everyone locks and loads why don’t we try it my way first.

Overwhelming movement through social media.

Furthermore I am now ready to travel throughout America anywhere, any place, any time  to deliver my love for America in full throat!

You gather one hundred lovers of freedom together (or more) and I will be there.

No cost to you.

I will pay my entire way to wherever you are.

You gather the voices and we will roar together…in every State in this great Union.

I will never stop.  This about duty not desire.  Our need to belong as humans is primary to our survival.

We BELONG here…in these United States.

Never ever forget…this is OUR country!!!

“Late Bird” by Jason Kraus

Restoring a nation one voice at a time.

Housing by Color of our skin

With Barack Obama readily admitting there is no plan for ISIS, or ISIL, Sunni or Shiite Islam, while sending more American troops to Iraq, the “Do Nothing Congress” (as maligned by uninformed progressives. This Congress has approved Obama’s more than doubling of the debt)  actually stopped (for the time being) the trade agreement known as TPP.

For the first time that I can remember the Democrats in Congress did something with which I agree.  It was the Democrats in the House that shut down Obama’s version of NAFTA.

Let us not get too excited here.

The Democratic Politicians didn’t do it to protect America.

They did it to protect the unions that funnel millions if not billions of dollars back to the Democratic Party and I am sure they will get in line when certain promises are made.

This is also another reason to completely disregard most Republican politicians.

Their constant whining and moaning about Obama (while quietly approving his decisions by funding them) only shows their hypocrisy or lack of ethics by supporting him on a massive trade program that will not benefit America.

Yet continuing to put our military in harms way without a coherent plan, ridiculous rules of engagement AND getting shut down by his own party on a subversive trade program apparently wasn’t enough for the man leading the most “transparent” administration in American history.

Nope.

While the Democratic Mayor of Baltimore was thanking the Nation of Islam, Barack Obama sent a La Raza supporter to Congress.

Yes America.  You are reading that correctly and for all you Obama supporters who don’t want to believe it…it’s all on video for the world to see.

Yes, I do realize some of you may support The Nation of Islam and La Raza’s views as well.

Of course this makes you a racist, misogynistic, homophobic traitor but hey what do you care, right?  What do you care about freedom?

We will remember that when the pendulum swings.

For those of you who are not familiar with these groups, I strongly suggest you educate yourself.

This type of culture (oppression), and humans, are currently in the White House, and no it doesn’t matter if you don’t “agree”.

As has famously been stated many times you are entitled (currently) to your own opinion but you aren’t entitled to your own facts.

Overt racism, sexism, and hidden homophobia reside at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Now for those of us with any common sense we’ve known this for quite a while.  But it appears this type of sense isn’t so common anymore.

I digress.

The La Raza individual’s name sent by Obama to Congress is Julian Castro.  The Democratic Party has openly stated many times they now want a Latino or Hispanic (make up your mind please Democrats, doubling down on your racism is exhausting) to be in the Oval Office next so they reached into Texas and snatched an “Affirmative Action” recipient (his words) out of San Antonio and named him Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.

So let’s get this straight.

A La Raza enthusiast (according to reports his mother founded this hate group) has been put in charge of Housing for America by a man who takes counsel from Al Sharpton (need I say more), and supports politicians who thanked a group who called for the killing of all “blue eyed white devils”.

I wish I was making this up.  But wait this actually gets worse.

La Raza Castro sat in front of Congress with Barack Obama’s “new” plan.

Housing by color.

That is…skin color.

Now I have listened and read many different comments on this about this being racism.

Well…yes it is.

More comments about this being wrong were added. Dropping humans into neighborhoods, providing them free or massively subsidized housing based on the color of their skin and then calling it diversity is idiotic and horrendous.

Yes, yes, and yes.

Where everyone is missing the boat is…this isn’t new.

“Progressivism” reared it’s ugly ahead in the Clinton years as Slick Willie deregulated (yes Democrats that was your hero the sexual predator who did this) Glass/Steagall while forcing banks to loan to humans without white skin.

Loans the banks knew would never be paid.

As this putrid decision started to take place in small concentrated groups that had only one thing in common (they weren’t white) the lid was blown off as the repeal of Glass/Steagall allowed the stock market to get involved.  Pretty soon everyone and their brother were given loans.  They actually created a name for this.  I’ve spoken with lots of real estate people over the years.

They started calling these loans NINJA loans as in No Income No Job.  I believe the A was added to actually complete a real word.  NINJ just doesn’t sound right although I can think of a few words starting with an A that would fit nicely.

So for all of you reading this right now let me be very clear.  Everything in here and every column I write is verifiable, factual, information.  It will take most of you less than ten minutes to search the internet and find all this data yourself.

Of course you actually have to care, Obama supporters.

As Clinton unleashed his racist housing plan the American Housing Boom (see fraud) started.

Progressivism had a new mantra.

The American Dream known as Freedom was replaced.

The new American Dream was Home Ownership as if humans in China, Russia, or Cuba didn’t own houses.

As the reign of the man who struggled with the definition of “is” and interns in general, came to an end, the Progressives handed the baton to the next Boomer in line who feigned concern about racial housing and then jumped on board with both hands allowing it to spread at an even faster rate like leukemia through the American economy and eventually many parts of the world.

The new term the Progressives created was “Compassionate Conservatism”.  The King of CC then launched us into Iraq borrowing trillions of dollars while sending out stimulus checks and telling Americans it was patriotic to spend!

Of course the housing market collapsed taking over leveraged highly politically connected banks with it and the uber wealthy started screaming at Bush threatening him with heaven only knows. Bush caved, bailed out the banks, and the responsible homeowner and taxpayer have continued to be robbed ever since.

Mission Accomplished!

Americans took a deep breath, cast aside Hillary Clinton, closed both eyes, told themselves no one could be as bad as Bush, ignored truth and facts, and elected an overt racist whose own pastor had called for God to damn America (on video) and whose own wife stated the only time she’d ever been proud to be an American was when her husband was elected.

Never mind the defeat of Nazism, the Civil Rights Movement, or walking on the moon.

Nope.

Michelle Obama was only impressed when her hubby was elected.

How droll.

Progressivism stepped right off the cliff and openly embraced racism, sexism, Sharia Law, crushing debt, corruption and anarchy.

Detroit, Chicago, New Orleans, Baltimore, Los Angeles, Oakland.

If you don’t understand that list then I cannot help you.

What we are seeing from Obama, Sharpton, La Raza, etc, is moral and intellectual depravity.  The sad thing is, aside from inflaming the racial aspect, this isn’t new.  It’s come full circle with the Progressives starting with Clinton, through Bush, and currently Obama.

The question we have to ask ourselves now is when do we get off this ride?

I am offering a new way and a brighter path but you have to get involved.  Those of you on Social Security, Medicare, or receiving a pension that the government is overseeing are going to get hit.

HARD.

Yes I know you paid into these things.  But unless and until we stop the borrowing and oppressive taxation on income this is only going to get worse.  For these programs to survive Americans have to be working.  We must abolish all income tax and free the American worker.

Coupled with a consumption tax and closing the border we can survive the nightmare progressives like Clinton, Bush, and Obama have created.

Otherwise none of these programs will survive.

NONE.

The choice is yours.

Freedom or oppression.

This is simple for me…what say you?

All lives don’t matter

Black lives matter.

No they don’t.

No life matters because of the color of one’s skin.

White lives matter.

Nope.

All lives matter.

Wrong.

This is another gift from the progressives in the Boomer Generation.

Everyone is important.  Everyone has something to offer.  Everyone is unique and talented in their own way. Participation ribbons for everyone!

Nil, nada, zero.

This is the reason Liberalism has been such a failure at everything.

Egocentrism.

There are billions of humans on the planet yet a portion of the Boomers (Obama supporters) believe they are uniquely qualified, one of a kind humans.  The mold was broken when they arrived.

They are “special”.

I know this for sure.  Their mold was definitely broken.

Let us “hope” it was thrown away.

We’ve all met these kinds of people or see them driving around with their Obama/Biden 2012 bumper stickers.

Although being here for 5 plus decades living in the freest society ever created they are broke, living on government programs, complaining about their kids, hooked on “medical” marijuana, complaining about their kids hooked on “medical” marijuana…you get the picture.

Rather than spending their productive years earning and saving money and serving America they spent their time tuned out and turned on.  It’s one of the reasons the pharmaceutical companies are making a fortune.  The largest American generation ever is now all over the age of fifty and in desperate need of type two diabetes medications, Xanax, and drugs to deal with sexually transmitted diseases.

Yep you read that right.  STD’s.

I guess this shouldn’t be a surprise as the leader of this cult following is the infamous criminal known as Bill “Slick Willie” Clinton…allegedly. (Yes I laughed when I wrote allegedly.)

If we could have kept this contained, America could have survived the most selfish generation ever, but unfortunately their love of sex, drugs, and Cherries Garcia spread like a cancer through Generation X and even more dangerously the Millenials.

The combination of Clinton, Bush, Obama, has left America not only broke but on the brink of a catastrophic currency collapse.

CBO…got to go.

Don’t believe me?

George Bush and his minions told the entire country if we didn’t bail out the banks the world would come to an end.

Barack Obama stated if the debt ceiling wasn’t raised Boomers on Social Security wouldn’t get their checks, the military wouldn’t be paid, etc.

This is classic narcissism.  The world wouldn’t have come to an end.  Just Bush’s world and many in America who weren’t doing the right thing by supporting themselves, counting on government (taxpayers) to carry them their entire lives.

Barack Obama’s threat was even more egregious.  To threaten to not pay the most powerful military (the only thing backing the American Dollar) is treasonous.

The Dollar isn’t backed by gold, silver, or the U.S government.  It is backed by the bravest of the brave.

The American Military.  Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines.

The next time you see a veteran or a current service member don’t just thank them for their service.

You better thank them for our way of life!

They are the only thing backing the dollar.  They are the only thing guaranteeing the value of our money.

The ONLY thing.

Those of you who want to pontificate about this are foolish and do not understand human behavior.  Crawl back from which you came.  This isn’t the Seventies.

You will not spit on our Veterans again.

But what really got the progressive Boomers screaming was the threat to cut off their social security.  “It’s my money! I paid into it!”

How about a reality check.

Unless you were self-employed (I doubt most of you liberals were) you only paid half of it.

The other half was paid by your employer (if you were employed at all).

Not only did your employer pay you a wage but they also paid HALF of your Social Security.  I don’t hear your employer screaming for half of your check.

As stated previously, unless you are self-employed.

I’m sorry Clinton/Warren supporters.  Let me explain self-employed.

These are the people who start businesses that turn a profit and create JOBS.

Yes Obama.  We did build our businesses, that paid the taxes, that constructed the roads and bridges, that communities could be built around, so you could show up as a carpetbagger and “organize”.

But I digress.

If you are self-employed you get to pay both halves.

Early on in my twenties I knew there was a very slim chance I would ever get my social security (socialism) back.

First and foremost I can do math.

Social Security is the ultimate pyramid scheme. (This was one of the few things Rick Perry was aptly able to communicate).

Whether you want to believe that or not doesn’t change the facts.  Nor does it matter what you “big government” or “reparation” mental defects think.

You and your type have crippled the country I love.  The country that has given me the only thing that matters.

Freedom.

Your opinions don’t matter anymore.

My freedom trumps everything about you.

EVERYTHING.

As I’ve said many times let the adults handle it from here.

Have a Coke and a smile.

Returning to our premise requires we ask a question.

Whose life matters?

I am glad you asked.

Is your life benefiting others?  If the answer is yes then your life matters.

If you aren’t benefiting anyone else, or even worse hurting others, then your life doesn’t matter.

How can I say this?

Because if you don’t care about your life…then why should I?

Let’s be clear.

If you don’t…then I won’t.

If you’ve abused children your life is worthless.

If you’ve raped women your life doesn’t matter.

If you believe there are 100’s of virgins awaiting your arrival then by all means…go find out.

All lives don’t matter.

Dunking a  basketball or hitting home runs doesn’t mean your life matters.

Throwing rocks at police, having multiple children with different men or women, or living on food-stamps your entire life doesn’t validate your existence.

Are you taking care of yourself? Is your life beneficial to others?

If your answer to these two simple questions is yes then…

YES.  Your life does matter.

If it isn’t yes then you are just taking up space.

If you are just taking up space then…

You don’t matter.
