Hello again my friends. Today I will keep my topics short and to the point, as there are a couple issues I would like to discuss. The next week will be a very tense and crucial time, the riots in Iran continue, the possible missile launch from North Korea, the bankruptcy of the State of California, and the aftermath of President Obama’s health care “infomercial” on ABC. So let us continue, here is your world, in black and white.
Last Wednesday night ABC ran their special on President Obama’s health care plan. The show was hyped up to be a time of questions and answers, debate, and a bipartisan discussion about the health care system and on whether or not there should be changes. President Obama spent over 60% percent of the programs allotted time, giving long winded and seemingly “beat around the bush” answers. No new ideas or plans were presented, and even the anchors at times had to ask the President to keep his answers short. The hand-picked 164 person audience did not feature a single Republican. There was no “debate” or “opposing sides”, only the nodding heads of agreeing drones. When Obama gets the courage up to actually face real opposition and real questions, from both sides, maybe they will have another discussion panel actually featuring an opposing point of view from a knowledgeable Republican.
Tensions continue rising in Korea, as there was an organized mass rally to denounce the US. The communist regime vowed to increase their nuclear arsenal and promised a fire storm of nuclear retaliation if attacked by the US. Suspect North Korean weapon smuggling ship the Kang Nam, is still being followed by the USS John McCain, but no decision has yet been made on what to do about the ship. Every day, North Korea pushes more and more, making threats against the United States, and South Korea. It is obvious North Korea is trying to provoke a conflict, and the greatest fear would be the North Korean retaliation on South Korea. The supposed launch date of July 4th for a North Korean intercontinental ballistic missile bound for Hawaii is still in question. Because of the added missile defense systems in Hawaii, North Korea has threatened to bolster their nuclear weapons arsenal, saying the US is preparing for war.
Another very dire situation that has spawned since the recent election of Obama is that a recent poll in Israel shows that only 6% believe that Obama backs and supports Israel. This is almost a complete opposite view from what Israelis view of President Bush. As one of our most import allies it is vital to stay strong in our support of Israel, and thanks to the weak and spineless foreign policy our country is now operating under, their trust in us continues to dwindle.
Our nation continues in a downward spiral towards socialism, lead by a man who, and I quote, said "I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody." (Obama during an October 2008 speech on defending his tax plans). A man who spends hundreds of thousands of dollars to fly to New York City for one night for a “date night” with his wife, as the rest of the country suffers under an economic recession. I ask you, go read the Declaration of Independence, view the atrocities that our forefathers suffered at the hands of a power hungry monarch, and tell me, is the title “President” or “King” more fitting for our current leader. Can we continue to disregard the outrageous encroachments on our freedoms? Can we sit by and do nothing?
“Where liberty dwells, there is my country”- Benjamin Franklin.
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. – The Declaration of Independence
May our revolution come swiftly, before we stray to far. The Tree of Liberty withers.

Stagnant Nation
As thousands of protestors clash with riot police across Iran, angered by the outcome of the recent election that kept President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in office, President Obama stands in his stance that America will not “meddle” in the events in Iran. Ahmadinejad won the election against opponent Mir Hossein Mousavi by a reported 63% of votes to 34%. Mousavi claimed that the election had been rigged for months prior to the June 12th election, and so the protests continue. With a rising death toll and daily protests by angered citizens chanting “death to the dictator” it seems that the bloodshed will continue. And as these thousands of young Iranians, seeking freedom from the tyrant ruling them, fight for their freedoms, our president sits by and passively says we will not meddle. Since when did America become “land of the free, and home of the ‘timid’”? We should not start an unprovoked conflict with Iran merely on the grounds of a supposed rigged election, but we should show that we stand with and support the embattled masses seeking democracy! The upholding of freedom and the pursuit of justice is what America stands for, and yet we remain passive in the face of a generation of Iranians held captive by the chains of an all controlling dictatorship. The fight for their freedom is their fight, but when all others stand on the sidelines, we should stand up and say “If only in our prayers and in our hearts, we support you in your struggle for freedom, and condemn the leadership of your country that has denied you life, liberty, and your pursuit of happiness.” But no, instead we sit, refusing to “meddle” least we seem to actually take sides with the patriots of that country. I do not say we physically intervene, but the power of our words alone may be impact enough. What has happened to the America that when we saw an injustice in the world, and when we saw Israelis battling day in and day out for the defense of their home, we stood and in the face of the world said “You do not struggle alone”? But now we care? We care what a dictator thinks of us? Are we to afraid to actually choose a side? We instead say “we won’t meddle”, and back away closing our eyes like nothing is happening. We have a president more concerned that we not “meddle”, then concerned with the fact that on the other side of the world, there are those seeking their freedom, and we say nothing. The one country on this planet that should be willing to support those fighting for the very things that we stand for, but we can’t be seen to “meddle”. How many more Iraqi citizens would be dead at the hand of Saddam if we said “we won’t meddle”? Is there no backbone! Is there no one left to say “we support freedom for all mankind”! Apparently not, because we sit by and watch each day as our own freedoms are slowly whittled away at. By a government who now thinks they can control private companies. By a government that says they should limit individuals’ income. By a government that says they can look after our health better then we can ourselves. Maybe we should first start upholding freedom in our own country. I admire the Iranian rioters, they show that they are fighting for a cause and are even willing to die for it. Would we do the same? Will we stand in the face of our government when they become the overreaching? “The tree of liberty needs to be watered from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”- Thomas Jefferson. The very freedoms that our countrymen have shed their blood for generations for is being put to the guillotine, can we sit and watch much longer?

The Korean Situation
Could our world be on the brink or another World War? With tensions growing ever stronger, a threat of war, and a possible missile launch from North Korea, and unpleasant bed-fellows China and Russia at odds with the US, it seems the skies are darkening. So once again, here is your news.
Recent Japanese Intelligence reports say there is fear that North Korea may be planning the launch of one of its long-range ballistic Taepodong-2 missiles at Hawaii on or close to July 4th. Though Hawaii sits approximately 4,500 miles from North Korea and the ballistic missiles range is roughly 4,000 miles, there is still the possibility that the missile could reach the Hawaiian Islands. From what is understood, the communist regime plans to launch the missile sometime between July 4th and July 8th. Obviously the launch would coincide with the States Independence day, but it would also be the third anniversary of Koreas first launch of the Taepodong-2 missile on July 4th 2006. Recent US satellite imaging has shown the construction of a missile launch pad on the Korea north-west at Dongchang-ri.
Vice Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staffs, General James Cartwright says it would take at least 3-5 years for North Korea to pose a real threat to the United States. Though according to arms-watchdog International Crisis Group (ICG) they believe North Korea has several thousand tons of chemical weapons that could be mounted on missiles, or used to bombard neighboring counterpart South Korea.
Last week the UN Security Council authorized the inspection of all outbound goods bound for North Korea, and the seizure and destruction of goods that violate the current sanctions. North Koreas response to these actions was to threaten war and the bolstering of their nuclear program.
In a response to the North Korean threat, and the speculation of a possible missile launch, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said he had directed the deployment of the Theater High Altitude Area Defense, a mobile missile defense system used for the interception of long range ballistic missiles. Ground based interceptors were also moved into place “should it become necessary, to protect the American territory."
Once again we are faced with the fact that a country that has shown very blatant hostility towards the US is being allowed to arrogantly snub their nose at us, as we sit on the sidelines waiting to see their plans. Is it acceptable to wait for a few thousand dead civilians, South Korean or American?
Another unrelated incident that deserves a quick glance, NBCNEWS, owned by American corporate giant General Electric, has been accused of purposely giving biased coverage of President Obama. The reason? General Electric (GE) has the opportunity in upcoming months to be given billions of dollars in federal contracts. If given exceptionally positive media limelight by GE corporate daughter NBC, seems only fair for Obama to respond with favorability. This ladies and gentlemen is what we very plain and simple call, political buyout.
There you have it once again, a world possibly on the brink of war, and a country on the verge of uprooting its own cornerstones. A famous man once said "Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one” -Thomas Paine. Government by and for the people, let us not so easily forget.

ABC: Americas Propaganda
Hello once again my dear friends, as always I wish to present to you the current world events, in a truthful and clearly defined manner. Americas slip from the country we once were, into the socialist tyranny we are heading towards continues to grow ever stronger. So here it is, the truth, pulled from the crevices of Americas mainstream media.
On the night of June 24th, the news titan ABC will no longer broadcast from its studio. On this night we will see the media and government merge, as programming has been turned over to President Barack Hussein Obama, and broadcasting will continue from inside the White House. That night ABC news anchor Charles Gibson will deliver the news from the blue room of the White House. The main goal of this move has been to give Obama and the White House staff a platform from which to push the new health care plan, unopposed. This move by ABC has drawn a firestorm of criticism, particularly from Republican National Committee Chief of Staff Ken McKay. In a letter to the head of ABCNEWS he argues that,
“According to an ABC News report, GOOD MORNING AMERICA, WORLD NEWS, NIGHTLINE and ABC’s web news “will all feature special programming on the president’s health care agenda.” This does not include the promotion, over the next 9 days, the president’s health care agenda will receive on ABC News programming.”
He also sent in a request to allow someone from the Republican Committee to be present at the programming, in order to offer both sides of view about the new health care agenda, the request was declined. McKay goes on to say,
“In the absence of opposition, I am concerned this event will become a glorified infomercial to promote the Democrat agenda…The President has stated time and time again that he wants a bipartisan debate. Therefore, the Republican Party should be included in this primetime event, or the DNC should pay for your airtime.”
It is very clear to see what is happening here. ABC, so-called “American Broadcasting Company” has given over its airtime as a free donation to President Obama in order for him to push his new health care plan. This blatantly overrides the fact that ABC is supposed to be a “non partisan” news source. ABC has very clearly aligned itself with the Democratic Party, by handing its broadcasting time over on a silver platter. Americans should be outraged by this action, yet it goes unnoticed. In communist countries around the world, all news is controlled by the government, and the government decides what the people hear and are told. This is exactly what is happening here. The Obama administration will control what is broadcasted and said, to the millions of Americans tuning in to ABC every day. I am calling for a boycott of all ABC shows and programming, to protest this outrageous u-turn from unbiased broadcasting.
I will leave you today with this. Look around us at the countries around the world void of freedom. Now compare the state those countries are in, to the actions that are taking place in our country right now, and you will see a startling similarity. It’s time to wake up Americans. This tyranny cannot go unchallenged! As our forefathers once stood up in the face of an overreaching government, it is now our turn. Let it not be said that our generation watched as our freedoms disappeared.

A new Revolution
I would like to take a moment to explain my purpose of these writings. We live in a world that is constantly changing, where day to day actions that control our future go unnoticed. If you are taking the time to read this, then you more then likely are someone that realizes the importance of understanding the world and culture around you. I wish to give an honest and upfront analysis of world events, broken down into terms that can be understood.
With my whole heart I love and support our country, and have great respect and honor for the men and women that have given their lives for the defense of our freedom. I would gladly give my life for my country. I believe in our country, in our Constitution, and in the laws and beliefs that this great nation was founded upon.
I do not struggle against any person or group of people, instead my fight is with the apathy and indifference that has seized the population of our country. We need to to wake up, look at the world and actions around us, and take action. Our forefathers have given us the freedoms we take for granted today, let us not forget the sacrifices and struggles they endured to give us these rights. Let us not stand idly by and watch.
I welcome criticism, good and bad, I welcome debate and disagreement, I will not shy away.
Thank you for your time.
This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. ~Elmer Davis

American Tergiversation
Hello my fellow patriots and concerned Americans. I come to you again with a pleading case to open your minds and look at the world around us, to seek out the truth, and to stand up against the current tide of apathy that is sweeping our country. I will not waste your time with inutile personal observations or arguments, so lets get right to the facts.
Tensions rise in Asia as the North Korean Communistic regime of Kim Jong-Il performed a test of its long-range Taepodong-2 missile on April 5th, followed by its second nuclear test in less than three years on May 25th. More recently North Korea has sentenced two US journalists to 12 years in a prison labor camp, for committing hostile acts against the Korean nation and illegal entry to the country. At every turn North Korea is becoming more and more hostile towards the United States and towards South Korea, issuing a no-sail threat that any vessel within 160 miles of shore will be fired upon. North Korea has also threatened to launch an intercontinental ballistic missile if the UN does not apologize for its harsh reaction to the April missile test. A madman with a stick of dynamite, lighter held at the fuse, North Korea is in a downward spiral of unstable aggression.
Three months ago the Federal Reserve announced a 1.2 trillion dollar spending plan to lower mortgage rates and breathe life back into the housing market. With rates climbing higher and the U.S. Treasury debt increasing each day, it seems the plan has had the opposite effect on the economy. The White House estimates the government will incur an unprecedented 1.8 trillion dollars of debt by the end of the year, over four times higher than last year’s all time high. The Federal governments’ solution the increasing debt and economical recession seems to be either printing money from thin air, or to just keep spending money. When you’re in debt, the logical way to get out is to just spend more money, right?
As California struggles to overcome a 24.3 billion dollar budget deficit, the state is contemplating the complete removal of its welfare program. The state would save an annual amount of 157 million dollars by cutting its primary welfare program CalWORK. In the words of Margaret Thatcher “The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money”. Although unemployment is at an all time high, and many families are struggling to make ends meet, the government was not put in place to support you.
With the economy still struggling, the War on Terror continuing, a mad man in Korea threatening our country, and the slow federal takeover of the free market expanding, President Barack Hussein Obama has been busy oversees, apologizing for Americas actions in the recent years, making statements about Americas “7 million and more” Muslims, a number far from true by any calculation, referring to the US as a “Muslim Nation”, and quoting the Quran in his recent Middle Eastern and European road trip. What happened to the Christian base that our country was founded upon? Americans continue to lapse in tergiversation, abandoning the cornerstones of belief and freedom that this country was built on.
As usual there are dozens of other issues that we could go on about for days, such as the Federal Government takeover of GM, the global warming scam that has mushroomed into the Presidents cap-and-trade program, the list goes on and on. We are faced with a government no longer run by and for the people. A country that is turning its back on Christianity and any sense of morality. A country that takes its opinions from propaganda under the guise of “An Inconvenient Truth”. A country where more people voted for the American Idol finally then for the President. A country where the national Anthem words were changed at a Lakers game.
As for me I believe in something larger the just the United States, or in the Stars and Stripes that we pledge to. I believe in Freedom, and Democracy, in a Nation under God, and in the beliefs and convictions that our forefathers shed their blood for. The day my country no longer operates under the founding principles that I believe in, is the day that I can no longer give fidelity to the President that is steering our country down this path. I stand today not for the United States, but for Freedom, and for the beliefs and laws that my forefathers established this country on. I do not commit treason, I am a revolutionist.
