This from my friend Libz...A Hell of a Gal and a Great Patriot

The SouthI live in the South – a place the gets a bad rap in the rest of the country. Most people that haven’t lived here get what they think they know from such cinematic masterpieces as “Deliverance”. I’ll admit that it is hard to have any respect for Ned Beatty after seeing him in his skivvies and squealing like a pig. But that misconception of the South really belies the fact that it is composed of the best of the best when it comes to the people and the lifestyle we adore.
As I sit in the Pratt Pub tonight listening to David Allen Coe’s “You Never Even Called Me by My Name,” I can’t help but feel a sense of pride in my fellow rednecks, roughnecks, belles and beaus. As my Yankee husband is fond of saying, “You guys may talk slow, but you think fast!” He’s right for the most part. We did have that whole embarrassing slavery thing going on for awhile, but it was on its way out when the War of Northern Aggression began. For those of you that are still under the erroneous assumption that it was about slavery, you couldn’t be further from the truth. It was about the same thing we are fighting for right at this very moment all over the country – States Rights. The Federal government didn’t have the right to invade a sovereign state then and they don’t have that right now – no matter how many unconstitutional powers they legislate themselves. Remember that.
There are a variety of things that I love about the South. For one, we have the best damn barbecue in the world. There is absolutely nothing better than getting together with friends on Saturday afternoon and eating a pig that’s been roasting on a spit since dawn. There are, of course, other accoutrements that are necessary to complete the successful Southern soirĂ©e. Frosty cold beer and good sour mash bourbon are required to loosen the spirit and make that SEC football game everyone is watching much more interesting.
Speaking of SEC football, as much as Corso hates to admit it, we do have the paramount conference in the country. The only drawback to being the best is that we spend an entire season beating each other in the ground and are worn slam out by the time the bowl games roll around. Although, as Ohio State fans can attest, the SEC teams still routinely bulldoze the Big 10, or as I like to call them, the Big 2 Little 8. OSU is 0-9 against the SEC in bowl games, a fact of which I never fail to remind my native Ohioan husband.
Another prerequisite to the perfect party is a little target practice. In these high-spirited competitions, the women never fail to join in the fun. I know that mixing alcohol and guns is dangerous – if you don’t have a lick of sense, that is. If you’ve never really shot off anything other than your mouth then, yes, this is not an activity in which you should participate. However, the majority of us have grown up around guns and we have a very healthy respect for them. I shot my first pistol at six years old. It was my grandfather’s .357 Colt Python and it ranks among my fondest memories of childhood. And the women and adolescents down here shoot just as well as the men, a piece of information that the “one-world government seeking, UN loving, tree-hugging, socialist squirrels” would do well not to forget.
Any social gathering would be incomplete without a bonfire and good music to round out the evening. I can think of nothing better than the peaceful, content feeling that comes with a buzz, a bellyful of barbecue, the smell of gunpowder in my clothes, a warm fire, a hot husband and Johnny Cash playing in the background. It is at these times that we friends reminisce and tell stories of days gone by. There are a lot of laughs and some tears. We talk of those that have gone on before us and the little ones that are just learning to crawl. And we don’t have to say it out loud, but we all know that this peaceful way of being is drawing to a close. Our group conscious senses the final act of the play is near and that our Republic is in its death throes. And we cling to the last bit of warmth from the fire, the last notes of music and we hold tight to the ties that bind us – our love for each other, our love for our way of life and the hope that God will be merciful. Whatever His will, I will make my stand shoulder to shoulder with these belles, beaus, rednecks and roughnecks. And I will die happy. And I will die free.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ~Samuel Adams

If This Won't Make Your Blood Boil, Nothing Will

All of this happened in just the FIRST QUARTER of 2009. This will make your blood boil. Den of thieves or are they just misguided or are we misguided???

Somebody spent a lot of time putting this together sent this to me and keep passing this around. Summary of what is known - how much more is still hidden? We must stand up America and get these people out of office. Please send me the best replacement candidates and we will give them airtime on our show and support.

Please pass this around to America.
God Bless America,

The amount of money that the head of the powerful
tax-writing committee, Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY), was
forced to report on his taxes after the discovery that he

Financial, the details for which he has refused to release

to Government-Sponsored Entities like Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac. Their meltdown precipitated the current
financial crisis. Just days ago in Pennsylvania , Countrywide was forced to pay $150,000,000 in mortgage
assistance following "a state investigation that concluded
that Countrywide relaxed its underwriting standards to
sell risky loans to consumers who did not understand them
and could not afford them."

The amount of TARP money provided to community bank

$1,646,000,000,000 ($1.646 trillion):

Do Americans Worship a False Security over Liberty?

Daily we are bombarded with the craziness going on in our Country.
Bailouts, Stimulus, Cap and Trade, Health Care, Treaties, Anti-Family Farm Bills, Federal Waterway Acts, War, Executive Powers, Patriot Act, etc., etc., etc.

For all of the screaming about what is constitutional and what is not, I have my doubts that many have read the Constitution, or if they have, care only about the parts of the document they agree with and discard the parts of which they disagree.  What is becoming clear to me is most people care more about their security than they do liberty.  I am glad people are waking up, but having attended many meetings, marches, reading a lot of emails, blogspots, and yes, a few popular books, I have to say the overriding consensus is that many still want their security.  Not so much the tea party people, many of them are ready and willing to lay it all on the line and flat out quit playing the Government games, but most of them are still tied to the two party system and the big R.

The problem with the security thing is that it is a false security because many people are thinking that in 2010 they will vote in a whole new cadre of the the R's and things will magically be better.   Have the Republicans been great bastions of freedom?  Give honest thought to that question before you answer.

The progressives have been working since our founding to have the America of their dreams.  They have been patiently infiltrating the Federal and State Governments with their education, nationalization plans, the dissolution of our manufacturing base, the refusal to secure our borders, unionization of the workplace and global agendas.  You know how often I rail against Federal Government involvement in education, the Military Industrial Complex, NAFTA, how I believe the Federal Income Tax was never properly ratified, and the popular election of Senators.

With the election of Barack Obama, who is nothing more than a figure head for the progressives, we can be assured that our Representation is nothing more than an illusion.  I have said it before and I'll say it again, soon even the Governors and elected officials of our States will become meaningless.  With the over reaching of the Presidential powers and the ability to appoint his own cabinet, yes, I know this has been going on and has been acceptable for the history of our nation, each President has used and expanded these powers and it has come to be the greatest tool available to this president and his progressive agenda.

Obama has filled his cabinet with tax evaders, marxists and progressives that will fundamentally change America.  Add an eight year war, financial meltdown and 50 years of Govt. school indoctrination and you get fundamental change.  People are saying even if Obama signs the Copenhagen treaty, two thirds of Congress have to approve the treaty for it to be a done deal.  Hello, the President can get around the Congress on this and any other issue with the Presidential powers act(s).  Congress has given away their duty to coin money and the financial system over to the Treasury and the IRS, Secretary of the Treasury and even HHS Secretary have more power than Congress, rendering them useless on monetary policy.  What good will it do us to vote in an entire new Congress when your money is in the hands of those who are free to do what they please?

As we were all side tracked by the couple that crashed the party at the White House did you know a convicted felon, Robert Creamer and his wife Rep. Jan Schakowsky D- ILL were invited guests at the party?    "Creamer also used to be the leader of an ACORN-tied left-wing group called Citizen Action Illinois. But, the FBI began investigating him for bank fraud and tax evasion and he stepped down.
In 2006, he was convicted and served a year and a half in federal prison and house arrest. While in prison, Creamer wrote a lengthy manual: "Listen to Your Mother: Stand Up Straight! How Progressives Can Win."
A convicted felon, who was invited to the White House for a state dinner — that alone is exceptionally rare. But even more interesting is that in his prison manual, Creamer laid out a "Progressive Agenda for Structural Change," which included a 10-point plan for foisting universal health care on the American people in 2009."

When these things all pass with or without the approval of Congress, and don't think it can't happen, what will we do?
 These are the planks of communism and the cornerstone of the progressive movement during the history of our Republic of America:

1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rent to public purpose.
The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution (1868), and various zoning, school & property taxes. Also the Bureau of Land Management.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
Misapplication of the 16th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, 1913, The Social Security Act of 1936.; Joint House Resolution 192 of 1933; and various State "income" taxes. We call it "paying your fair share".

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
We call it Federal & State estate Tax (1916); or reformed Probate Laws, and limited inheritance via arbitrary inheritance tax statutes.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
We call in government seizures, tax liens, Public "law" 99-570 (1986);
Executive order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 which gives private land to the Department of Urban Development; the imprisonment of "terrorists" and those who speak out or write against the "government" (1997 Crime/Terrorist Bill); or the IRS confiscation of property without due process.

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.
We call it the Federal Reserve which is a credit/debt system nationally organized by the Federal Reserve act of 1913. All local banks are members of the Fed system, and are regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the State.
We call it the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated through the ICC act of 1887, the Commissions Act of 1934, The Interstate Commerce Commission established in 1938, The Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and Executive orders 11490, 10999, as well as State mandated driver's licenses and Department of Transportation regulations.

7. Extention of factories and instruments of production owned by the State, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
We call it corporate capacity, The Desert Entry Act and The Department of Agriculture. As well as the Department of Commerce and Labor, Department of Interior, the Evironmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Mines, National Park Service, and the IRS control of business through corporate regulations.

8. Equal liablity of all to labor. Establishment of Industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
We call it the Social Security Administration and The Department of Labor. The National debt and inflation caused by the communal bank has caused the need for a two "income" family. Woman in the workplace since the 1920's, the 19th amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, assorted Socialist Unions, affirmative action, the Fedral Public Works Program and of course Executive order 11000.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the population over the country.
We call it the Planning Reorganization act of 1949 , zoning (Title 17 1910-1990) and Super Corporate Farms, as well as Executive orders 11647, 11731 (ten regions) and Public "law" 89-136.

10. Free education for all children in government schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.
People are being taxed to support what we call 'public' schools, which train the young to work for the communal debt system. We also call it the Department of Education, the NEA and Outcome Based "Education" .

Are we the land of the free?  Will we be the home of the brave inside our own borders or will be keep seeking security over liberty? 

I ask you to read the Constitution again and see if we are a country that resembles our founding document or are we living under the marxist planks of communism.

How do they fit with your idea of liberty?  Do Americans worship a false security over Liberty? 

I hope not.

I for one would have liberty as outlined in our founding documents and Constitution.
