Some things you have to ask yourself

By todays standards (DHS) a terrorist statement

"We hold these truths to be self-evident. That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."
— Excerpted from the Declaration of Independence of the original thirteen united states of America, July 4,

6 or 7 Dollars a gallon.......

....or more possible for gas and diesel fuel in the near future. What do you do to adjust for those kind of price hikes? How will it affect you food prices, health needs, your everyday expenses? Imagine those prices right now.  What would you have to do different?

If we enter in to a WAR with Iran and Syria the middle east could easily become the focus of a third world war.
Now if that happens oil prices would go through the roof.

So what to do in light of these dreadful possibilities?

First pray  you will need faith. Romans 5:1

  Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

Second store food for at least for your family preferably non perishables. Living where we do we kinda already do that.(One power outage in northern NY lasted for two weeks)

Third Drinking water if utilities go out you need water. I recommend if, nothing else, the purifiers that you get for camping. You have to have  drinkable water.

Fourth health needs : You need items everyday. Many of the soaps and detergents you use every day can become scarce as a result of hikes in oil prices. (restocking of shelves can be an issue) What if you can't find toilet paper on the shelves? What if you need alcohol for first aid?  bandages ? etc

IF we we go to war. The things we don't even think about will be expensive or we can't get them.

I hear all the talking heads becoming more and more out spoken for action to be taken against Syria and Iran.

Let's see ten years in Iraq :result; country in shambles, very little infrastructure left ,civil war, more than a million dead( mostly civilians)... hmmm not to good there.

Afghanistan ten years later billions spent to drive out the Taliban now they're going to let them back innegotiations.The Afghan President siding with the Pakistanis against us. Not too good of a record there.

This doesn't include the families that are missing fathers, moms, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters. It does not include those that did come home without limbs and disabled for life. " war what is it good for ... absolutely nothing!!!! "

See the only people that suffer in any of these wars are the common people. (I don't even want hear the arguments for justifying that) If they escape the bombs,..... disease and starvation get them. If they escape that, the occupying forces rape and murder them. (look what happened just recently in Libia)


War is not good. Seldom is it justified.
And for those that call themselves christian I have one question; "Where  IN the New Testament does Jesus say go to war?"
I know many will say well we have to have a strong defense. I believe that also. But deep inside do you really believe we have to kill hundreds of thousands innocent men, women, and children over seas to be safe here?
Do you really believe the Iranians are going to nuke the State of Israel, a country of 8000 square miles, that is home to the 2nd most holy site in Islam?
We, as a people, and I'm speaking to the Christians here,  are just not thinking this through. Who profits from these wars? Who becomes richer and sits back in all kinds of safety raking in the cash from huge defense contracts? What runs and army? Food isn't first. It might be a very close second .You can still shoot someone if you haven't eaten for two or three days. But, without fuel in the theater of modern warfare you don't go anywhere.
 
So now we come back to gas and diesel fuel jumping to 6 or perhaps 7  (maybe more) dollars a gallon.
How will that effect you ? Are you ready for that?

If Obama is re-elected we will go to war. If Mitt Romney is elected we go to war.
If that happens I don't think we will have it so easy right here in Sandy Creek NY or where ever you are!

vote RON PAUL 2012 !!!!!

This is insanity!

Many of you have heard me use the adage, "  the definition of insanity  is doing the same things over and over again and expecting different results." I think Albert Einstein said that . WE keep outsourcing our jobs!!! Then lawmakers and state administrations cry we don't have enough money. ( what's wrong with that math?)  Revenues are down. Below is an example of what is happening right now in this country. Your tax dollars at work!

I contacted my state assemblyman and spent thirty minutes with one of his staff lodging my protest. The Alexander Hamilton Bridge project is in my state. I let them know that I will bug them every chance I get until this issue is corrected. If you do it state by state that would be enough.

It's time to resist this type outsourcing. Resist it  not a year from now but, NOW!

Here's the reality of jihad

Here's a story that continues to build simply because the bodies keep piling up! Yet ,very little is being heard. This is the true face of Islam.  I'm sorry if that offends anyone. I know there are people out that are Muslim that claim they practice a " peaceful religion" . If that is true every Imam in the world should be speaking out against this slaughter in Nigeria.

Thanks wc from GA

This Guy nails it !!!!!!!

 For those who don't know, this is coach Dave. I think you will find it hard to disagree with most of what he says.

Here are a couple excerpts:

"Allow me to state right at the top that I am not endorsing Ron Paul.

Although I am a registered Republican, and ran for Congress in 2010 as a Republican, I am not a Republican. In fact, I am not even sure what that means any more…being a Republican. As I wrote way back in 2008 in reference to the political parties:

“It is like lying under a huge bug. Down on the ground where the bug’s feet are it looks like McCain and Obama are two different feet. But the farther up the legs you allow yourself to look you begin to realize that they really are nothing more than two legs connected to the same body.”

"2008. I always vote my conscience.

About ten years ago I came to the realization that the “people” were not the one’s who chose the candidates. When the Republicans gave us John McCain four years ago I lost all doubt that the process was manipulated. The powers-that-be will do all that they can to prevent an outsider from becoming the President. They select and elevate their hand-picked choices and then manipulate us through the power of the media. On election-day they give us the privilege of choosing between a controlled-Republican candidate and a controlled-Democratic candidate."

I believe if you read his article you will agree.  Again thinks to Binky from " the land of Maze and Blue" MI

By the way I do indorse  Ron Paul 20 12 !!!!!!

Can you believe it!

First , I want to thank everyone who prayed for me during my illness. Finally I can get back to the blog after the holidays.

Getting back to this bill that has just been passed. The National Defense Authorization Act You know that I had trouble with much of the criticism of the bill in regard to detention of US citizens. That the NDAA,   does not give the military the right to detain US citizens indefinitely, and it doesn't. But  H.R. 3166 and S.1698 ,the Enemy Expatriation Act  can strip a US citizen of their citizenship. Do I have to explain the ramifications of that?!!!!

"10/12/2011--Introduced.

Enemy Expatriation Act - Amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to include engaging in or purposefully and materially supporting hostilities against the United States to the list of acts for which U.S. nationals would lose their nationality. Defines "hostilities" as any conflict subject to the laws of war. "

112^th Congress: 2011-2012

To add engaging in or supporting hostilities against the United States to the list of acts for which United States nationals would lose their nationality.

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h112-3166&tab=summary

The Senate bill is basically the same. If pushed through this bill would empower the military to use detention against US citizens  that had their citizenship revoked .

Here is a n excerpt from Chuck Baldwin"s  article online;

 http://www.libertynewsonline.com/article_301_31424.php

"Have we forgotten the MIAC report out of the State of Missouri back in 2009? In that official State report, supporters of Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and Chuck Baldwin were identified as potential dangerous "militia members," and Missouri State law enforcement officials were notified to be on guard. Beyond that, anyone that identified themselves as being pro-life, pro-Second Amendment, anti-Federal Reserve, Christians who believe in the return of Christ, and even returning Iraq War veterans were likewise targeted as potentially dangerous to Missouri State law enforcement personnel."

 Sadder still is the way so many Christian pastors and churches have become little more than glorified cheerleaders for State ism and Militarism. While the Trojan Horse of Big Government sits unnoticed in Town Square, so-called Christians spend most of their time either trying to kill each other because of differences of opinion over secondary doctrines, or trying to turn their worship services into miniature versions of Walt Disney World.

I recommend going to link and reading the article

Finally back in the summer of 2010 the Tea Party showed us the power of the grass roots to change elections .The Occupiers of Wall Street stopped the whole country in business as usual. It is our duty to at least stand against those that have decided to take this country down another course different than what is defined in the Constitution of the United States. Thank You
