Life Without The United States

This is Part I of a nine-part series on YouTube. Please take the time to watch this initial video (9 minutes, 20 seconds). Download the rest of the series if you wish. I would suggest so. In all, it will take roughly an hour of your time.

You and I both know that, as Mark Steyn suggests, America is indeed alone. You cannot count on the UK. You cannot count on Europe. You cannot count on Canada. You certainly cannot count on Mexico or South America.

And I also submit that, as William Bennett likewise suggests, America is the last, best hope of the entire planet.

This nation, Demorats, Leftists, Socialists, the Religious Left, other nations, other interests and agendas denigrate and remove power and control from the United States to their own detriment.

They are that ignorant. They are that shallow.

Let the series speak for itself.

It’s A LIE

The Obama Administration states “anonymously” that, regarding our president bowing before King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia:

An Obama aide speaking anonymously denied that the president was bowing.

“It wasn’t a bow. He grasped his hand with two hands, and he’s taller than King Abdullah,” the aide was quoted as saying by Politco.com Wednesday.

The Saudi press appreciated the move, and wrote:

Obama wished to demonstrate his respect and appreciation of the personality of King Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz, who has made one of the most important calls in the modern era, namely the call for inter-faith and inter-cultural dialogue to defuse the hatred, conflict and wars.”

You can see the photo above.

And therein lies the problem — the huge problem, the vast gap between myself and the Obama Administration. And it doesn’t have much to do with Mr Obama bowing to a “king” (with the caveat that he appeared to treat Abdullah with more deference than he did the Queen of England) — it has to do with another issue entirely.

It involves the truth.
Because the Obama Administration lied.

It didn’t prevaricate; it didn’t make a mistake; it didn’t misunderestimate; it didn’t state a half-truth. It simply LIED.
Let me spell it out: LIED.

And here is what you Demorats and Leftists and Socialists and Religious Left refuse to do, which is why I’ll not now and never be in your camp: you won’t OWN IT.

Mr Obama bowed to a Saudi King. OWN IT.

You’re not “progressives,” you’re, at minimum, Liberals. OWN IT.

This administration wants to completely remake this country with Social Re-Engineering by taking American private interests and the American public hostage, so that it can control every aspect of American life:
  • Where we live;
  • How we live;
  • What we eat;
  • What we drink;
  • How we are transported;
  • And so much more. You know the rest.
This administration will do this, is doing this, by utilizing staggering amounts of money in order to acquire more power over every occupant of this country.

Why do you lie? Because you don’t have the ethics to state your true intentions. You lack courage. And you wish to cloak your real intentions: the truth behind your actions.

You won’t OWN IT.

The GOVERNMENT vs PARENTS – and – THE G.O.P. vs CONSERVATIVE MEDIA

I have what I consider to be two critical points to make on these two very important and salient comparisons — observations that absolutely DEFINE these two separate issues:

1. PARENTS vs. GOVERNMENT:

And, I admit, I am more than complicit — I am clearly part of the fundamental reason behind this conflict. The sooner my generation dies, the better for this country.

That conflict stems from the Baby Boomers. And therein lies the rub:

The Greatest Generation, the WWII parents, were too good for this nation. And too good for their children. They wanted better for their offspring than they got. And, everything else in consideration, they pampered their children too much which, unfortunately, resulted in the initial decline of this nation as a whole — but predicated upon their experience of The Depression.

As great as they were, the Greatest Generation failed to do what I call The Logical Extension, and that is this: pampered children = expectant and entitled children.

Continuing, the Baby Boomers thought they could acquire the best of both Home and Work lives and, with that in mind, believed in the illegitimate axiom of “quality time” vs. “time” in general with their children. Boomer Men then acquiesced power to women; women wanted to be like men and men wanted to be like women. Yin and Yang expired; there was Yin and Yin and Yang and Yang.

Boomers then began to abandon their children in the TIH (Two Income Home). Women no longer acted like women and men no longer acted like men. That is, of course, when they lowered themselves to actually bearing children at all. DINKs (Double Income, No Kids) ruled.

Children, at their base, honed their personal radars. They realized their parents were shallow and, in even further tenuous times, began to cling to units other than family as their family. Having no family, kids raising kids, gangs became family substitutes.

And more families sought that reassuring Government Model.

People now seek the Government nipple as opposed to the now-lacking familial nipple.

They are substituting government for family in terms of reassurance and comfort.

2. The G.O.P. vs CONSERVATIVE MEDIA:

The conflict that began above is simply continuing unabated but abetted by Demorats, Leftists, Socialists, The Religious Left and even (to a degree!) Conservatives themselves:

DLSTRL groups believe now, and rightly so, that there is no central leader to the current GOP.

Therefore, the only effective Conservative path that seems to be illuminated is painted not by the Republican Party but by certain Conservative media elements.

This is why DLSTRL sources seek to minimize or totally eliminate Conservative media entirely — and beginning with Talk Radio.

Because their is no real one current Conservative political leader.

The DLSTRL will do what it can when it can.

Absent centralized and cohesive opposition.

The REAL Reason: POWER

The Obama Administration, by way of Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, make it very clear that the current Demorat-controlled Washington is more concerned with acquiring power and control than it is with money — though money is the means to that end: power.

How might one then logically deduce this? Investors Business Daily observes:

Federal Takeover
By INVESTOR’S BUSINESS DAILY Posted Monday, April 06, 2009 4:20
Bailouts: Didn’t Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner say that it was not the administration’s intent to control private companies? Then why is it reportedly reluctant to accept TARP repayments from some banks?

If it has indeed declined to accept $340 million in payments from banks in Louisiana, New York, Indiana and California, the administration is tacitly admitting that it wants to control those banks as well as others that will try to pay back the taxpayers’ money they took in the Troubled Asset Relief Program.

By refusing repayment, the government can keep the leverage it bought with the bailouts. Banks that still “owe” would not be in position to reject the administration as a “partner.”

If the money is offered in return by those banks and institutions who now finally “get” that the strings attached are indeed beyond onerous, and the government refuses to “accept” said cash, that yields only one conclusion: yes, the bailout is about money but, fundamentally, it is about control the government ultimately wants to acquire over any and every portion of the private sector — and utilizing the umbrage and disenchantment of the public to help accomplish those goals.

As I indicated earlier, the crystal-clear goal of the Obama Administration, the Leftists, Socialists, Demorats and Religious Left is ultimately the utter and complete Social Re-Engineering of this country. Hearken back to Mr Obama’s original campaign words:

Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and begin the work of remaking America.”

Not re-invigorate the nation; not re-ignite the economy; not re-employ thousands of Americans; no. To entirely remake the face and foundation of this nation. And to me that includes, tacitly, the abrogation or ignorance of the US Constitution. All of these things and more are currently in progress at an unprecedented rate with the complete condonation, at best apathy, of the bulk of this nation’s lawful and unlawful residents.

I would end by a blazingly-salient quote from economist Thomas Sowell:

Socialists believe in government ownership of the means of production. Fascists believed in government control of privately owned businesses, which is much more the style of this government. That way, politicians can intervene whenever they feel like it and then, when their interventions turn out badly, summon executives from the private sector before Congress and denounce them on nationwide television.”
