4-Years Ago

I remember 2008 like it was yesterday.

We had a small gathering of friends over for the traditional Watching of the Returns. It was warm enough for us to sit outside due to the Conservative Republican disregard for all things Mother Earth.

When It became obvious the Oldest, Whitest, most “Warmongering” Male the east coast Open Primary Democrat Cross-Over Voters could pick to run against Barack Obama was going to Lose the election I set my beer down and went to the cabinet.

This is when I dug out my Red Army Chorus Collection and let it play for the rest of the Evening.

Having Read everything that the Obama campaign had put out for public consumption, not the least of which was The Blueprint for America, I knew what was coming. And apparently, unlike 99% of those who voted for him… (as shown later by the plethora of “deer-in-the-headlights” post-election interviews with self-professed Obama Voters) I was not “Surprised” by what happened.

Having taken a small amount of time to read very basic books on Economics like “Hazlitt’s – Economics in One Lesson” I was not “Surprised” when his ideas failed. Having looked at what Lessons History had recorded for all time in regard to Socialism and it’s results, I was not “Surprised” when his policies created nothing but more of the problems he thought he could solve.  Having spent a cursory amount of attention, just during my brief lifetime, as to how Socialists promise to behave before gaining power then actually behave once they have it, I was not “Surprised” when they shut out all opposition to their ideas from any and all debate during Obama’s first two years in office giving us the Largest Government Grab of personal wealth in the history of the United States.

The Country was built on the idea that we would all talk about politics… all the time. This country was built on the idea that we would stay engaged and always lend a modicum of energy to educating ourselves on local and national issues before, during and after we voted. This country has suffered from our abdication of our responsibilities to others we don’t even know living in places we have never visited.

So here we are.

What direction are we going to choose tonight?

Are we going to solidify our march to Socialism… because all it will take is another 4-years? Everything is in place and ready for the final touches.  It’s taken them 100-years… don’t fool yourself into thinking they’re going to give up easily, let alone anytime soon.

Or are we going to pick a squishy Conservative who we will have to watch very closely and make sure he doesn’t wander from the path returning us to Free Markets and Free Dominion over Ourselves? This will require rolling back 100-years of Leftist policy codified in our legal system… to the shrieking of those whose power and control relies.  We will be accused of the most heinous crimes imaginable… ready?

This is a turning point. The point of no return. It’s not enough to vote and walk away… for the rest of your life and your children’s lives we will have to be at attention and quick to confront those we thought shared our Love of Liberty.

Tomorrow is a New Day…

Forward Free-Market Capitalism! 

Forward Voluntary Cooperation! 

Forward Freedom to Choose!

Cheers to all of you, see you tomorrow.

Don’t Vote Against Barack!

Do Not Vote For Mitt…

And… Do Not Throw Your Vote Away on Gary!

Please take a moment to think this through…

It’s not enough to vote the “right” way, unless it’s for the “right” reason.

It is not Obama, the man, that we are Fighting Against. It should not be Romney, the man, that we are Fighting For… And, while I like Gary Johnson, I don’t need anyones permission… or approval… to get stoned if I choose too.

The 2012 Election is all about the War between Capitalism and Socialism (plus all its variants) with the future of the United States hanging in the balance. The Ideologies are mutually exclusive.  The choice is Clear.  It is as simple as that.

The election is not about Abortion, Special Rights for Minorities or Big Bird. While these are issues we should be discussing… like, why should one person have more rights than I do… no matter happens with these “Paramount Problems” it will not result in the complete and total collapse of the Greatest Nation on Earth.

You Are Being Distracted.

It is Intentional.

The Socialists cannot argue ideology because they know you’ll start gathering wood for the ensuing stake burning.

The Capitalists will not argue ideology because, most of them have no idea what it means. And those that do, know that you have been subjected to 60 years of programming, confusion and outright misinformation provided by our government schools… so you don’t know what it means either.  Those “in the know” could come out of the closet and preach the gospel of Voluntary Cooperation… but you would look at them like they have three heads and were speaking in tongues.

Instead…

You are being asked to reduce this election to a beauty contest between two Men who cannot tell you the truth.

The Truth is you have a choice between a genuinely Crappy Socialist (who like’s beer…) and a Squishy, Vacillating, Poorly Grounded Consitutional Conservative (who does not like beer… not a plus.)

On behalf of Mr. Squishy and Vacillating, I would offer that Constitutional Conservatives have yet to destroy any economies… oppress individuals… subjugate peoples… enslave populations… systematically starve their enemies… etc.

The Socialists have, and continue to, perform all the above tasks with alarming skill.  With only the best of intentions, and preaching “Fairness” while doing it.

This election comes down to a simple question that has nothing to do with the likability of the individuals running. Instead, it has everything to do with the Ideology they support.

So, I ask you… Do we put the final nail in the coffin of Free-Market Capitalism and Individual Liberty that this country has the opportunity to return to by Voting for Force, the ideology embodied by Barack Obama?

Or…

Do we elect the only option we have that may slow the decent and, hopefully with our relentless engagement, begin to undo 100 years of Fabian Socialist policies?

We have seen clearly the illustration of that old adage “Once you go Socialist you never go back.” And contrary to the 1%, like the Kennedy’s/Kerry’s/Reid’s/Pelosi’s, we are not better off for it.

Please make an effort to understand the stark differences between the ideologies.  Then, and only then, go vote.  After that… stay engaged and don’t let these people get away with turning this great country into Greece.  I don’t think it’s too much to ask.

Have you ever had Retsina?  Not good.
