A Letter to My Fellow Patriots

The Democratic party took shape in the early 1820’s through a process that French Foreign Minister and intellectual Alexis de Tocqueville compared to “the gathering of scum and algae upon still waters.”  De Tocqueville noted that in the quiet stillness of contented citizens, those who are corrupt and divisive start movements toward their own goals, first in quiet whispers and ultimately through the roar of an angry mob, intent on subversion and perversion.  As the right and just majority chooses the easier path of uninvolved complacency, the vile minority is given the stage to advance their own agenda.  It will continue, de Tocqueville said, until the righteous majority stands and gathers to disperse the mob.  He also noted that in the corrupt environment of radical subversives, “outstanding men will avoid elected office in order to pursue more positive and wholesome private ambitions.” Those who did seek public office, he believed, were often poorly informed and open to corruption.

 

It's funny that someone from the early 1800’s could so accurately describe the situation in America in the 2020’s.  Our founding fathers and those that influenced them warned us against the “Angry Subversive Mob.”  Voltaire, whose writings influenced Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin, encouraged free speech but warned against radical fanaticism: “those that can make you believe absurdities can make you to commit atrocities.”  An oddly appropriate statement for the horrors of the last few days.  Intelligent patriots knew then… and we know now… that the tyranny of the radical mob does not end in a peaceful, prosperous community.  Luckily, they gave us guidelines to keep things balanced and fair for all Americans… The Constitution of the United States.  ‘We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, and insure domestic Tranquility…’. 

 

Domestic Tranquility… is that what we have now?  

 

Our Constitution gives us the power to get control of situations like this and protect our country and our rights as Americans.  Patriots… it is time we stop choosing the easier path of uninvolved complacency.  Stand up, speak up, put a stop to this madness.  For if we do not… what society will we leave behind for our children and grandchildren?  It’s time to put an ‘Outstanding Man’ in the Whitehouse.  It’s time we vote out our useless representatives.  Vote, speak out, stand together, and dismiss your petty bickering amongst yourselves.  You are the majority, you are strong, you have God in your hearts, and you know what’s right.  

 

You are being called up.  It’s time to muster.

Give Yourself a Break

Emotional downtime, like sleep, is vital to our mental and emotional well-being.   Part of the liberal strategy is to use our passionate anger and objection to keep us negatively engaged; so our brains don't get much-needed downtime.   News, social media, streaming entertainment, advertisements, now even our grocery labels are becoming saturated with a narrative intended to keep us pissed off. When I'm angry, it's hard to focus on anything but the subject of my irritation.   I am not the best version of myself at my job, with my friends, and with my family.   By keeping us negatively engaged, the Left is keeping us off our game.   Ask yourself how often you have felt optimistic, hopeful, content, or generally positive in the past year?   They have found a slow drip torture technique that is working - a milder but more devious technique akin to sleep deprivation.   Tomorrow is Easter Sunday.   Please... for the sake of your mental health and the sa...

A COUNTRY WORTH FIGHTING FOR

My Great Uncle Harry was a veteran of WWI.   Whenever I visited him as a child, I would ask him to see his neatly folded uniform in the chest at the foot of his bed.   Despite my prodding, he would never talk about his time in France, other than to say it was “Hell on Earth.”   I offered the question… “Uncle Harry, if it was so bad, why did you go?” His answer has always stuck with me… “because that’s what young American men did.” He was an amazing man. My job puts me in proximity of soldiers on a regular basis. On a recent visit to Ft Campbell, I had lunch with a group of officers ranging from a new 2nd Lieutenant to a Lieutenant Colonel. They talked with concern about the future of the US Army and the ever-growing shortage of new recruits. I asked a young 2nd Lt why she joined, and her response was “to help pay for college and get some experience for later in life.” The Lt Colonel, on the other hand, signed up after 9/11, passionate over the attack on America, proud of ...

A Second Statement to the Left

  Wolves were used by Vikings to attack their enemies in battle. Exceptionally hard to train, wolves only submitted to the will of their masters when food was sharply rationed; made available only in response to 'correct' behaviors. Making wolves completely dependent on their masters for food was the only way to control them. Binding them, beating them, even killing the alpha as an example to the other wolves had no lasting effect. Dependency was the only method to maintain control.   Are you free? When your government feeds you, clothes you, and gives you shelter, does that make you free? When your means of communication, information, and education are all provided to you by your 'elected' officials, does that strengthen your independence? Or do you wag your tail when you are given handouts and then follow commands in the hope of getting more?   Those that came before you had indomitable spirits. They struggled, fought, died ... and won true freedom. They sacrificed al...
