Motivated to write this by “CAIR Sabotaging Anti-Terror Training in Seattle.” Been rolling around in the gray matter for a while, but that posting pushed my button. Pardon my unprofessional (no one pays me for this) attempt at political satire.

One with the “revised and extended without objection” comment I began at LGF:

It’s been buggin’ me lately, but it seems all our “leaders” want us to do anymore is hang our heads in shame, constantly issue apologies, step out of the way of wild eyed killers, who tell us they intended to act that way when they find us anywhere in the world, and turn our gaze to the walls, all to make up for having the unmitigated gall to pickup and leave an oppressive settings many nations of the world to come and be free, to exercise choice, to expand our personal talents into something good, which now has become the economic engine for the entire rest of the world. Go figure, 4% of the World’s population manages to drive the rest of the markets…and they hate that. Are we perfect? Nope. Have we done something no other country can replicate, without the use of slave labor? Oh, yeah, they tried that for 70 years…biggest practical joke ever played on mankind…thank you Karl, the retired industrialist for coming up with such a great idea. Whoda thunk he was such a comedian?

Others, who cannot rise to shake off their chains, now and in the past, sit and blame us for inability to take action of their own, as well as to pretend that their unfortunate lot in life if the fault of those who risked and stood to say “NO MORE WILL I BOW TO ANOTHER!”

There are those, and we have been cultivating them in our own society, who demand we turn over the fruits of our efforts, be they from free speech or free enterprise, so they may have the life earned be others, and at the same time demand that those who labored have it no longer.

Such a mentality never rescued anyone from the aftermath of a major earthquake, collapsed building, nor combat, or a street gang’s assault.

I have moments when I consider just saying let’s just close the history books on this “experiment” in human history, disestablish the United States of America. You know, I suspect we have found the maximum population size that can handle the truth, and we exceeded it sometime in the late 1950s. What began the downhill slide? Not sure, that’s too large a bite for me to try and take today, as it has been in the past. It has been a nation that was proud and compassionate that brought us this far. To gravitate from proud to fearful and whimpering will put us in a place where we won’t be able to afford to be compassionate, to each other, let alone to those around the world who we help as we are able, for no other reason than they are people in need.

This was to be but a short comment about wondering in text when someone would have the guts to pen the bigger thesis in the same vein as Shelby Steele did in “White Guilt.” It’s time for someone to step up to the plate, maybe Bill Whittle, to write “American Guilt: How the Republicans and Democrats and a multitude of fear mongering, left wing, self esteem is more important than a swift kick in the a$$ morons and Michael Moore convinced American to despise itself into its own demise.” Who will have the guts to publish it soon, because once we fall to this idiocy, no one will be allowed to write it.

America seems, at least at the level the MSM portrays it, has become nothing more than a battered spouse, who cannot bring themselves to rise and get out of the situation. How apt is this? Consider how our politicians continue to pass more laws outlawing the use of words, and the courts can;t manage to tell anyone it’s too bad your feeling are hurt, but grow up and get a life. No bruises, no medical bills, no concessions…now leave the court room. The amazing thing is we allow minority opinions to supplant all other things. The point is not to advocate people not being civil, it’s not to allow one person’s emotions to drive the actions of the rest of society. Toss in my lawyer “friends” who would rather consider the payment on an 8 series BMW than the unintended consequences of court action they request be taken on behalf of their clients. That’s how we have arrived, in micro steps down a bad path, and once it’s clear we’re headed that way, then no one wants “to change” and can’t see that it not really bad now, so what’s the big deal…oh, right up until a state’s supreme court tells a majority of voters you’re wrong.

Side note: How can those hallowed black robed people find rights not in writing in the legal documents, yet they can’t find the ones clearly spelled out? What’s wrong with that picture/ What’s right? Well, if you’re ox didn’t get gored, who cares toady, regardless of how the same raging bull of legal precedent will most likely come to your door/cause/lifestyle. Ask the women who wanted men to be punished by taking 1/2 of their military retirement pay by federal declaration, with no regard to the present circumstances? Sounded great when Pat Schroder (D-CO) hammered it through, but sucks when a female officer in this time, who paid her civilian hubby’s college and law school bills, and funded his legal practice beginning, will have to pay him for the privilege, all because of evil, greedy, male retirees… Justice, yes, sweet revenge, as he makes about 3 times as much as she does, if you figure she gave him nothing. Do the math, accept the consequences of feel good legislation to buy a few more votes.

We, like an addict of just about anything, who has been confronted, will need someone to tell us to shut up and quit huddling in a corner and to get up and get on with life. Is it fun? No. Is it the way to recovery? Yes. Tried and true. And don’t forget that the success of the Alcoholics Anonymous and all it’s many offshoots, is founded on the very principles we demand be removed from the public square, because it hurts a few people’s feelings, and enables lawyers to log more billable hours. The way ahead was written thousands of years ago, not in 622 AD, despite what you are being told about the goodness of a religion that demands killing of those who leave it.

Future news headline: “UN World News reports the last American company was sold off today, setting a record for the disestablishment of a nation. All assets of the now gone United States Of America were ‘redistributed’ in 56 days, with Islamic based funds purchasing 92.3% of the companies, property and other assets, to include the control of the rights to ‘redistribute’ former American citizens to other nations as they see fit. A consortium of Islamic Nations, led by the nuclear capable Iran, has made a press release indicating all former area under US control would have Shar’ia Law established with 30 days, or as soon as the, as they are called “frustrated, gun totin’, Bible clutching Christian terrorists” could be rounded up and beheaded. Most are found in the South east, with other concentrations in communities around abandoned industrial plants and all major cities. The press release indicated there are plans for a ceremony in the former Philadelphia, now renamed “New Mecca,” this coming 4th of July, to publicly burn The Declaration of Independence, The Constitution and the Bill of Rights and begin the beheading of all gays and men without beards and anyone who possesses a Bible. The celebration is expected to go on for weeks. Additional celebrations will follow as groups are identified for purification.”

Will that happen? No, not anytime soon, and if it is sold off, it will happen from within (oh, wait….at >$130 bbl, look how much goes into overseas banks….). Interesting, while on the subject, how the libs/Dems rail against big oil. It was Bill Clinton taking money from China other overseas “investors” in his Presidency and subsequent influence, who managed to close off major portions of the southwest with coal reserves? Just wondering… Now, the same libs, who openly speak at congressional Hearings about nationalizing “Big Oil” are the same ones who bow to environmentalists and ensure the citizens who voted them in will pay higher and higher energy prices. If there is a conspiracy of someone to make money on the oil, I put my money on the Dems and their friends. Forget the not so handsome profits of Haliburton. Consider the “windfall” those who keep us from using our own resources must be making, or will, once they leave office and the mandated scrutiny of their personal finances.

Anyhow…this is a passing frustration. I do not intend to stop sharing my opinions, for I take the words of our Founders as words to live by. Will it cost me? Not today, but it’s not too great a price to pay.

There you go…grist for the mill, food for thought, and something to comment on.
