Join Us or Be Destroyed

The Tea Party says to the GOP Join Us or Be Destroyed.  That’s not a threat–we’re rescuing you again, if possible.  If not, well, the Tea Party will not perish with the GOP.  If we cannot save this party from itself and its mortal enemy, then we will simply take it over or die trying.  We are left with no alternative.  We sent an awesome weapon to Congress in the last election, and you are breaking it into pieces because you’re afraid it will do more damage to you than to the opposition.  Sowing the seeds of your own destruction, you refuse to even fire it.

We intend to put you into a leading position in both houses of Congress and the White House, and we demand that the … Continue reading →

Supercommittee II

I’m not quite up to speed on the details of the latest Supershenanigans, largely because I have stopped paying attention.  This was a farce to begin with, and now we’ve come to the smelly end of it.

Supposedly, if they identify a certain amount of cuts, then the debt ceiling goes up, but if not, then it stays where it was lifted a while back, and if there’s no agreement whatsoever, then they gut defense and mildly inconvenience some social spending.

[pullquote]Old Democrats know how to wield power, whereas old Republicans know how to avoid responsibility.[/pullquote]This was a bad deal to begin with, and only a feckless Republican leadership would have signed on to a deal that held defense hostage as a guarantor of diplomacy.  So feckless that … Continue reading →

Liberate Wall Street

Another #Occupy useful idiot was killed today in Oakland, fighting over a bag of weed. Video at Breitbart’s Big Government.

Good!

Did you think anything else was going to happen? When cowardly public officials fail to condemn and counteract lawlessness, the result is more lawlessness.
In this country now we punish success and virtue and we reward failure and vice.  That odd feeling in your gut is the life-expectancy of the Republic contracting abruptly, and we all know it in our bones.  This is the way things end.

They are shooting each other as the weed runs out.  Could anything be more pathetic?  If you don’t want your head cracked, then do not attempt to take by force what is not yours, whether it’s dope or … Continue reading →

Decimate the Federal Workforce!

By | | , , , , , ,

The Federal government’s role is not to provide jobs, but to perform only those duties enumerated in the Constitution.  It is obscene for a organization with an IRS, a bevy of regulatory powers, and a military, to put itself in competition with the private sector which it is supposed to protect.

Thought experiment:  If every ten civilian Federal workers were required to vote one of their number off the gravy train and divide his former duties among the remaining nine, wouldn’t they select the most useless?

The word “decimate” means literally to kill every tenth member of your organization.  Well, all we’re talking about here is jobs, but the selection method for a decimation is just as valid now as it was back when the Romans did it.

The End of the Republic

First they came for Reagan’s Legacy,
and I didn’t speak out because that’s in the past.
Then they came for Sarah Palin,
and I didn’t speak out because she wasn’t running anyway.
Then they came for Herman Cain,
and I didn’t speak out because he was not perfect.
Then they came for the RINO who wound up as the nominee,
And he went down in flames along with the House majority.
The End.

No Longer a Slave | Contagious Transformation

From time to time I meet a person who makes me think that more of that person is exactly what this world needs. Stacy Swimp is one of those rare and heartening finds. Please meet a man with whom I am proud to associate in various online Tea Party settings.

I am a proud American who just so happens to be of African descent (I am the great, great, great, great grandson of Peter Adams, who was an African Slave on a South Carolina plantation). I am a black man who does indeed embrace the absolute best of the values of my ancestors and I have learned from the mistakes as well.

I have made up my mind wherever I go, I shall go as a man and … Continue reading →

Bad Cop on Streets, Good Cop in White House

This is the post I had hoped not to publish. I wrote this doom & gloom post at the same time I wrote this far more sanguine post regarding the “Occupants”, around this point:

These are not anti-globalization hooligans upset about where their coffee is harvested.  These are our fellow Americans ruined by our Marxist indoctrination system of culture and education, embittered by pre-ordained foreclosures of too-good-to-be-true loans that the banks made at the point of the government’s guns, and whipped into a teeming mass by the Provocateur-in-Chief.

Now is the time to talk our fellow Americans down from the ledge.

We have failed to do this, or the Marxist organizers have simply beat us.  Make no mistake, we are … Continue reading →

Draft: Against All Enemies: Ethical Resistance

[This is still a bit rough. The beatings will continue.]

Ethical Resistance in a Constitutional Republic

Are we in the grip of domestic enemies of the Constitution? I believe so.  Because I believe so, I have a duty to consider action to defend the Constitution.  Much hinges upon two questions:

  • Am I correct?  and if so,
  • What action is appropriate?

I will attempt to answer both of these in a train of thought I call Ethical Resistance.  More pointedly, I will try to set up a framework for answering these questions rather than answer them specifically, and hope thereby to teach a man to fish, rather than provide fishsticks.

Duty

Employees of the United States Government including all members of Congress are required to take the … Continue reading →

Progressive Republican Trolls

By | | ,
Leave a comment

I caught some flak from a nice enough but seriously stupid person for my latest post about the GOP’s malfeasance toward the Tea Party.

I already blocked her (this was all on Facebook) so no direct quotes, but she called me a Progressive troll and hoped I would trot out some more modern cliches next time.  She contended that the term “RINO” is a lefty plant and seemed to think that criticism of the GOP from the right was not possible.  In her universe, the GOP is the sum total of conservatism.

How many more of these empty-headed Rockefeller Republicans are clogging up our party?  As I said, we have a far bigger task ahead of us than it seemed–the Republican Establishment and … Continue reading →
