The Post Office has a new “Holiday” Stamps set – Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and a gingerbread house (unlabeled). They can’t even put the word Christmas on a postage stamp?!?! What the heck.

Kwanzaa isn’t even a holiday. It’s a made up black power / black separatist celebration of not being white. Last I saw only about 1% of blacks even fall for that crap. It only started a couple of months before I was born. Stupid!

When will our country ever become sane again???

I bash California. Often.

But there are a few people in California who get it, and are willing to speak up.

This is great and exactly on point. This whole Obamacare / Debt Limit / Continuing Resolution debate has far more implications than people realize.

I know this belongs on the Liberty Blog, but I’ve put it here to hopefully get everyone to watch!

Of course this doesn’t show if they steal your information, just how willingly they give it to the government (and tell you about it). I wonder where CenturyLink rates?

I think so! Maybe they can’t handle that much truth!

So, one day a week or so ago, I thought of some fun little thing I was going to say when someone asked me how my day went, but I never got a chance.

Then I thought, well, I’ll save it and just say it the next time.

Now, I’ve forgotten what I was going to say.

Especially since the last couple days were really crappy.

We only have 3 main Communist holidays (not that they are actually holidays) people in the United States acknowledge. One of them we don’t really observe – May Day (or International Workers’ Day – not the pagan holiday also called May Day, also May 1st) is the one where the Communists parade around their weapons through the streets, but in the US the illegal immigrants have been trying to get in on the action.

The Communists here tried to get Labor Day (the 2nd Communist Holiday we acknowledge) moved to May 1st, but they lost control of it and now it’s just last big BBQ of the Summer! Only the Communists try to keep the original intent.

The third Communist holiday comes up on Monday – Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, known more commonly by his alias V.I. Lenin, the father of the Communist Revolution in Russia. It was first celebrated in the United States on the 100th anniversary of his birth – Wednesday, April 22, 1970. They called it Earth Day.  It’s funny when you look on the Internet and you see all of these people trying to deny that that’s why the date was chosen, but there is plenty of evidence. Just to be logical, think about it, if you were starting a new “holiday” where you want a lot of people to participate in activities would you choose a Wednesday? I’m just sayin’… Gaylord Nelson was a Socialist, no use trying to deny it.

Anyway… In honor of the Communists, I’ve updated my Global Warming page on my Science blog. Please check it out. (I was up until 3AM writing it. :))

Those who know me know that I bash Progressives. I don’t go off too often, and usually I just dismiss their idiocy out of hand without much discussion. The problem I run into a lot is that people have to be taught history before they can understand the point that needs to be made. And they usually don’t have a long enough attention span to hear it.

For instance, if I tell you that abortion rights people are “anti-life” you might just roll your eyes and say “Sure, you are a 212 Dad, but you don’t have to over exaggerate all the time.” The problem is, I rarely exaggerate (unless it’s in obvious satire), because exaggeration really drives me nuts. I say what I mean.

The truth of the matter is, the abortion movement in this country (which is responsible for 10’s of millions of deaths – no exaggeration) was headed up my the Progressives. People who wanted to wipe out the Blacks as a race, kill the handicapped, sterilize the poor, etc. People like Margaret Sanger, George Bernard Shaw and Woodrow Wilson. (read End of Days or read here for more examples if you are too wimpy!)

These people inspired Hitler, they showed him the way he should go about eliminating the Jews. Progressives in the US and their Fabian Socialist cousins were in many was his role models.

Al Gore (who was already obviously in their camp) laid bare some of his belief in Eugenics the other day as he explained that Progressives have just evolved more than Conservatives. The implications are clear.

Anyway, read this article, or at least watch this video…

I am still having such a hard time dealing with the election. Not to where it’s consuming me, but I’m really having to work hard on trying to focus and prioritize.

I have tons of things I want to do, but what is the most important right now? What’s going to be of the most benefit to me and my family? How should I spend my time? (When I have enough energy to do anything beside veg out.) Is hitting the gym the answer? Maybe. Maybe it would help me have more energy to do the other things I want to do. But then again, should I be focusing on some short-range goals I have?

Anyway… sometimes I have another wrinkle added in to the equation. Loneliness. I know you aren’t necessarily lonely when you are alone, and you a don’t have to be alone to be lonely. Anyway, I’ve hit a couple of bouts of loneliness lately. It’s not fun, but so far it seems to only hit on weekends in Cali, but not every time I’m here. I’m really looking forward to being back at home for a few months later this year.

I decided to mention this, not as a lame excuse, but to explain that I’m still trying to decide the future of my blog. Does it fit into my priorities? One of the reasons I want to write this is for my family – sort of a diary and way to keep them informed on how things are going with me, but also as a way to help them maybe stay on top of some interesting things going on in the world.

The problem has been that most of the news has been so bad, I don’t feel like sharing it, or spending the time thinking about it long enough to blog about it.

Soon you’ll hopefully know how things work out. Will I bail on the blog for lack of desire or because it gets too low on my priority list. If there isn’t any family interest maybe it will sink on the priority list, or maybe an increase in activity will help create family interest – who knows? Time will tell.

I keep trying to make my self create some new entries, but it’s really hard right now. For now, all I can do is talk a little about my frustrations and hopefully after The New Year starts I can put some of this behind me and move forward.

Back in the day…

I used to think, our country was lost, the people were just too stupid. They had been sucked in by socialist lies and dumbed down by our failed propaganda infested education system to the point that there was no hope. It was 1992, we had just allowed Ross Perot to elect Bill Clinton and I was 25.

Rush helped change my attitude. He always said that we shouldn’t underestimate the people. We just needed to educate them. We just need to keep working at it. He helped me want try and to follow President Benson’s admonition to be anxiously engaged in a worthwhile cause.

I ran for office in 1994 and 1996. These were great experiences, but a I also learned a a disturbing lesson. Elected Democrats (At least in Salt Lake County, Utah) were actual Socialists. Up until that time, I actually thought you could work with Democrats. I thought they were misguided, but still believed in America as founded. After getting to know some actual Democrat elected officials, I knew that I was wrong. But I still believed it when Rush talked about the problem being with Democratic leaders, and not the rank and file.

Now, 15+ years later, I’m afraid more and more of the rank and file are Socialists too. Our education system has been so completely bastardized, and turned into a propaganda mill for the left in this country, that way too many of our people honestly do not understand what it means to be an American.

I am finding it harder and harder to trust that the regular people out there are worthy of my trust that they can ever be made to understand the truth of what’s going on. I guess I’ve come full circle. I’m starting to feel like people are just too stupid to be worth the effort, and it makes me very depressed.

I also find my self wondering if preaching to the choir is worth the effort. I know sometimes you have to, to boost the moral of the choir – let them know that they are not alone in their belief system. Of course, since I hope that the choir includes my family, I have to push on. I need to say what I believe is right, and give them a chance to read it and hopefully act on it if moved upon by the Spirit. And even if they don’t act, at lease they can be slightly better informed when “Arguing with Idiots.”

Anyway, I just needed to vent a little, and explain why I’m having a challenge posting these days. Hopefully this will soon pass.
