Bob Sheafer on De’Face (Face The Nation) with J Biden ~ Not a single thing presented that up-lifts the United States in any respect.
A NameChange Suggested for our political parties. Lets be honest!
Republican Party should be changed to The Freedom Party
To continue using “Republican” to describe the party allows all anti-republic persons to place the ilk of the slant toward being boxed in with a “Far Right,” “conservative,” “extremist” or “fundamentalist” labels.” These extreme connotations, or descriptions, harm the party by the political correct idealism of our time. Indeed make the Republican Party a group handicapped as ineffectual and subordinated to all opposition to individual rights and liberties. The word Republican suggests that we have a representative government and it is most apparent today that we the people are not being represented by anyone.
The Democrat Party should be changed to The Socialist/Communist Party.
April 3, 2004
As we see in nearly all discussions the word “democratic” is being used synonymous with the Democrat Party. A totally uneffective educational process in our county our children are taught this understanding of the two words are indeed the same any opposition to either are anti-American. The Democrat Party should be honest and change its name to The Communist Party. There is very little difference in communism and all that the Democrats stand for. In saying this we need to understand the socialists and communist manifestos. In order for the Democrat party to achieve and maintain their strength as a party they have to keep its subjects indentured and thus dependent upon the leadership. To do that they enslave a large number of the citizens so as to make them completely in servitude to those “Who Are Looking Out For You.” If you do not vote to place the party you are dependant upon for everything you use in your daily life those rascally Republicans will break the chain of dependancy and set you free. This might even mean that you will have to work to provide for yourselves. It would mean that you would by necessity be responsible for your own actions. It would mean you would that government would become less involved in your daily pursuit of happiness. It would mean that others would break the hold of government on your income, or the income of others, and make it necessary for you to provide for your own welfare. It would mean that government would be reduced to only providing for the safety of its citizens. It would mean less for the Internal Retinue Service (IRS) to and in reality mute the savage hold it has on all citizens. It might even be disbanded and a more equitable way of managing resources. Washington DC would become a symbol of Freedom once more and much of its inhabitancy would need to find other places to live and those that free-load on the back of the citizenry of our country (Parasite) would need to find a job. It would mean that the educational system of our peoples would once again get a hold on how our children are taught. We might even be able to actually look for teachers in our own neighborhoods and come to know them by name. The Education question would be the key to all above. We have a national Educational system that is now in control of everything our children are taught. They have slowly over the years isolated our children like a bunch of sheep and they have changed everything we know as honorable into something of a notch indoctrinating them to accept a sub-servitude position that allows government to dictate everything one is to the providing for the general welfare of all. What is meant by this is that we would all become equal, regardless of position, income or education and that the rich pay for the poor to an extent that no one would have any advantage over another.
If the Democrat Party were re-named as The Communist Party (as Michael Savage calls it – Red-Diaper-Doper-Babies") it would provide for what we call “The News” to become honestly incorporated into the party they now are completely dedicated to. They then would no longer find it necessary to try and cloak their biases and would openly be able to tout there political preferences. They would be able to come out of the closet. They would openly spread their propaganda and there would then be no discussion as to who and what they are. Of course there would be much difficulty in making this change at first. It would be many years before a balance would become reality because all so called “journalists” would have to be given an honest education from K1 on. It would mean that those so oriented to report the news would do just that. They would return to the Who, What, Where, When and How from what is now, “How can we make a change or difference today,” or, “How can we fool them today” theme. The news today, if you wish an honest understanding with no slant to any other form or understanding, you have to search it out and dig deep. You have to dig beyond the alphabet channels and local rags (fish wrappers), local newspapers and search the WWW and find a talk radio show that offers truth and not propaganda.
So, to recap what we’ve discussed: The Republicans would become known as the Freedom Party. Everything they stand for could then be condensed into what the meaning of the word “freedom” implies. The Democrats, Independents, Libertarians and all other idiotic forms people choose to label themselves as would become The Communist Party. There would then be no need for people to try and disguise themselves as something other than what they all find themselves categorized as and be honest. There would likely have to be an amendment to the constitution to identify people as ideologues of one or the other and all this LUKE WARM garbage we have today. There would be representatives selected from one of the two parties to take our wishes to DC and after a brief yearly session they would go and do their jobs and return home to provide for their families and their individual responsibilities.
All of this has been said to say this, “We need to understand ourselves as one of the two: Freedom or Communism.” We are all for one or the other. We need to identify ourselves so all will know who we are. We would then, once again, live our lives in the pursuit of Liberty, or the pursuit of living off others. Where do you stand?

The direction of liberalism and where the U.S.A. will end up if those like John Karry (How Much Would C(K)arry Cost Us?) and Ted Kennedy have their rathers. See Karry vs. Karry for more details!
Pictures of the Socialistic Future ~ by Eugene Richter
Note This:Richter was born in Duesseldorf and attended universities in Bonn, Heidelberg and Berlin. In the late 1860s, when the German unified nation state was being created by Prussia through a series of wars against other German states and France, Richter first became a member of the German national parliament (the Reichstag). Over several decades he used Parliament as a platform to voice his unwavering opposition to increasing state expenditure, increases in the size and power of the army and the navy, government abuses of individual freedom, and colonial policy. Richter was faced with two major sources of opposition to his form of classical liberalism. On the one hand there were the conservatives led by Otto von Bismarck who cleverly forged an alliance between traditional conservatives, the military, and the working class with his combination of warfare and welfare expenditure and tariff protection. On the other hand, there were the socialists who wanted to maintain the high level of government expenditure, but shift the balance more towards welfare expenditure. As modern electoral politics emerged in Germany in the late 19th century Richter's never-ending opposition to all government expenditure increasingly came to be seen as mere dogmatism and pig-headed "Manchesterism" (as free trade and free market ideas were called).
What are we thinking?
I admit without apology that my thinking is ‘Old-Fashioned’ and that it is quite convincing that we are headed, as a nation, down the old and tried path others have chosen and the result was dreadful and despicable.
We see the unabashed pose directions for us to take that are only shadows of the failed past. We loose liberties in America one fraction at a time. We are like the story of the “Frog Boiled In The Kettle.” That story poses this: If you try and place a frog in hot water it will immediately try to escape. If, however, one places the same live frog in room temperature water and slowly warms the pot and continues to increase the temperature it will stay put until cooked. America has freedom at no small price. It is paid for (and the need is to continue to pay the price) in the blood of our endeavors of past generations. In the 66 years of my life I have witnessed a slow and planned erosion of our freedoms that recently has begun to escalate and is now roaring down as a avalanche and every one seems to be hypnotized and unable or incognizant of it, and are unwilling to put forth an effort to escape its eventual destruction.
When did it begin? In my experience it seems as though the auto-seat-belt law would appear to be the small but quite significant start of the steep slope. One could spend hours listing the reaching out of government to strap-in those that would be subject to its powers. We have heard all the intelligence of modern day apologists list the reasons why one law or another is a good thing. We all recognize that some laws are necessary and essential for the survival of humanity. The Ten Commandments are at the top of my list. However, today we push the Ten Commandments of God aside and hide them in a room off the corridor and push forth all the insignificant laws that would seem to make sense in a secular society. A nation that was founded with a constitution that was to protect us from the government that would prefer any religion or cause inhabitants to celebrate a national religion. Those who we supposedly elect to represent us in the government and uphold our constitutional rights have done exactly the opposite. They have attacked our ability to practice our preferences of religious expression and have now fully adapted the Religion of Secularism. Yes. Secularism is a religion. The United States of America is now about enforcing that religious belief on its citizens. Nikita Khrushchev http://213.92.16.98/ESW_articolo/0,2393,42018,00.html was correct when he talked about Russia not needing to attack America militarily and that we would destroy ourselves. He even stood up in the United Nations, took of his shoe and pounded it on a desk telling America that he would burry us! Indeed, there are hoards that are helping him do just that.
To you it might seem like a huge leap to link “Fasten-Your-Seat-Belts” to Khrushchev. I only ask that you think about it. The termites of Freedom have been secretly eating away at the foundation constructed by our ‘for-fathers’ for years. The base of who we are and how we became what we were at one time now seems to be crumbling each hour of every day. Paul Revere (You must visit: http://earlyamerica.com/paul_revere.htm ) had much to warn us about when he made his famous ride. There are few today that would even take a stride toward warning us of the pearl we face. Even those that would think they are descendants of Paul Revere in purpose are questionable at best. I might be said that Hitler was a sort-of-Paul-Revere in his heyday. So, my friends, we need to awake from our sleep and prepare for action. Our action will fall into two categories. One – we will need to prepare to live in a stridently different society. A society that bows at the temple of The Religion of Secularism; or, Two – be prepared to fight as never before experienced in America and shed our blood to retrieve our Liberties and Freedoms.
Now, this November, we have a choice to make. The fact is this choice will be made, but, by very few. I predict very few citizens of the United States of America will show up at the polls. Sadder still is that fact that it may not make much difference who it is that will be elected to represent us for the next four years. If a Democrat is elected to replace George W. Bush it will speed up our rapid decline on the stage of history. If our President, George W. Bush, is reelected the decline may be slowed a bit – but I am afraid not by much. There has been a rapid loss of liberties under the vanguard of the Bush Administration. Why, I don’t have the slightest idea. He has the very best advisors and leaders available. However, many things have occurred in these last 4 years that simply make no sense at all. Who will I support? George W. Bush, of course. If John Kerry wins, the tide will rise more quickly. I wonder today if many will simply stay at home because of a lack of confidence in either man. The only thing we can do is pray and vote our conscious. Please consider closely the options and VOTE!

LIBERTY UNDER ATTACK
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness . . . "
Liberty suffers under the ongoing attack from at least three fronts – historically as well as futuristically. Liberty in the United States of America was drawn up as a desirable proposition with many flaws. In my opinion the flaws are drawn up and pursued by man-kind. The greatest example of this begins at the very start of civilization. Adam and Eve were created with the bent toward liberty, freedom and the pursuit of happiness. Our Declaration of Independence states that we as individuals have this right because of a divine gift.
So, let us examine the threats to our liberties. The greatest threat we suffer comes from the form of government the United States of America was set up with at its inception. Our forefathers saw the need to divide power. It would seem that they tried to accomplish this using a fragile establishment to what I understand as “Separation of Powers.” This was done by breaking up those leadership positions into three separate, and supposedly, equal entities. These positions were to be selected (in most cases voted upon) by the individual states.
This writer must state here that he is no scholar on the Federalist papers or other dogma that more effectively lay down the rules outlining the concerns I present in this writing. This chore is being perused in order to give the simplest explanation as possible of a very tenuous situation concerning the lasting survival of our nation.
The three dangers or threats to our liberty and freedom comes from those that represent the different parts. I have read that the founding fathers knew that democracy (small ‘d’) is at best an experiment. What are the three as formed? First, the congress.
It may have been best if it were “THE congress!” This first form was further divided into two separate houses. The “house” and the “senate.” Have you heard that “a house divided . . . can not survive.” Division is a very appropriate name for the congress. In my experience it has always been the source of division and diversion. One group, the senate, seems to think they are the anointed ones. However, our country stands in the sink hole of division more from the Senators representing the several states more than any other entity. They thrive on division. They call it other more ambiguous descriptive words, but it all comes down to great division and the introduction of class warfare. More class-ism has come forth from these strongly entrenched groups of people ever sent to Washington, DC. Robert Bird is the one multiplicity of descriptive ideas ever seated in congress. He is divisive, a person of questionable past and has drained more money from those he has supposedly represented. He is the chief of all pork providers. What other member of congress has been a past member of the KKK and stayed in office? He is one that is able to quote more on every conceivable book on the body politic -- including the Bible, yet from his mouth spews the viper-seared breath and the look of hate as a companion on almost everything he has to say. That is only one man in a body of 100. Others in varying degrees are quite similar to he. Indeed, one wonders how many look to Bird with envy wishing they also had such a broad base of knowledge. It is insisted here that knowledge has nothing to do with wisdom! Now, in our first division discussed here, Congress, we repeat that this body is chosen by several different states. The house is as well another group of the bazar. Where else in the world are there so many immature and radical group of people who are selected to represent the people as in this House. One reference to describe the stupidity of this group will do for our purpose here. We have the “Congressional Black Caucus.” One has only to wonder where is the “Congressional White Caucus?” Point made. These are also selected by carefully drawn districts (another division) in the now 50 states. When these ‘divisions’ were first drawn-up, the people sent to DC to represent us were just plain folk, farmers, industrial-workers and other fine folk were sent to DC to make laws and returned home to support themselves as we, the plain folk, do. Today, it carries all the niceties that come with the finery of wealth.
The second group we will discuss briefly is what may well today be referred to as “The Imperial Court.” It was designated as “The Supreme Court” and is appointed for life. That is why they have left the Supreme and became Imperial. In stead of doing their job (.) they now “MAKE LAW.” They are there to interpret the laws but now construe the law to fit their own personal and influenced impression of the law. Simplistic? Might be. Fact? Of course. One other thing that is proving deadly to our search of liberty and freedom is the influence of the Senate over the process. It now is necessary for 60% of the Senate to agree on an individual before the President (Executive Branch) there can have an up or down vote to approve or set aside a nomination. This is not only a danger to our Liberty and Freedom, it is likely the most defective and broken branch of our survival as a government. When un-Godly men and woman are able to effect and decide on, and place un-Godly men and woman to the court which will decide on the meanings of the laws upon who and what we are as a people our survival days become numbered. This year alone they, the Imperial Court, has moved against God’s 10 commandments and have given us freedom to practice sodomy. How is that for our representatives? A severe danger to Liberty, Freedom and the pursuit of happiness.
Then there is the Executive Branch of government. This is the branch which has increasingly become the most influential, yet the weakest, all in a brief number of years in the history of America.
The White House. Today one may well say it has been neutered. We go from filth for 8 years (hated by every Christian in America) to our present leader, President George W Bush. He will likely go down in history as the most hated individual selected to serve as President of The United States of America in all of its history. Less that one year from election day it seems unlikely he will survive for a second term. Why? Because he is Evil? No. Because he hasn’t done a great job? No . . . at least to some respect. He has let many things go down-stream without a word, but for the most part, he has been the man of the hour and has accomplished great things projecting the strength of America in a number of ways. Simply because he is not a Democrat and is hated by every one that calls themselves such! He is a hated man. Now, simply being hated by Democrats will not be the reason for his demise. He is also hated by the “Alphabet News Network Channels” like no other in my 66 years of memory. When you have ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN – and to some extent, FOX, all against you, and your enemies have found a way around recently enacted campaign laws so as to super-fund his rival it will be tough. In that President Bush has allowed so many things pass under the bridge that the Conservative voters question it is feared that much support he would normally spawn will stay at home and not cast a vote. Another division. Indeed, two divisions in this paragraph alone. We are divided into two major parties, Democrats and Republicans. These are divided, most are, into three or more different groups. Conservatives, Liberals (Socialism), Libertarians, the Green party and others I don’t even want to think about. All these divided people will decide who it is that will likely lead the USA into oblivion.
Freedom and Liberty are on the line – at least as far as the Representative Government experiment is concerned. This is not written to be a comprehensive description of our democratic representative government. It is written to cry out a warning. It all hangs in the balance. We may well see the demolition of our nation into something more like Hitler or Stallion envisioned when they were on the world scene. I suppose that if President George Bush were more like the previous president and had himself savaged interns on the oval rug in the oval office G. W. Bush would have great chances of winning. However, our President is a devout Christian, a devoted husband and an all around great man. He will need our prayers – not just to get him elected to finish out his presidency but to help our nation survive what looks to be a great humiliation in a failed attempt to offer Liberty, Freedom and the Pursuit Of Happiness to the entire world.

It is this writers opinion that the wall between the three separate but equal powers of our government is being dismantled one panel at a time. Who will lose? We the people do!
Text of Aug, 6, 2001 Memo
Text of a declassified presidential daily intelligence briefing from Aug. 6, 2001, declassified by the White House and made public Saturday. Portions marked "x" were blacked out before release:
Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US
Clandestine, foreign government, and media reports indicate Bin Ladin since 1997 has wanted to conduct terrorist attacks in the U.S. Bin Ladin implied in US television interviews in 1997 and 1998 that his followers would follow the example of World Trade Center bomber Ramzi Yousef and "bring the fighting to America."
After US missile strikes on his base in Afghanistan in 1998, Bin Ladin told followers he wanted to retaliate in Washington, according to a xxxxxxxxxxx service.
An Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ) operative told an xxxxxxxxxx service at the same time that Bin Ladin was planning to exploit the operative's access to the US to mount a terrorist strike.
Just as we (America) have lost the shock of 9/11, so Afghanistan & Iraq have lost the "Shock and Awe" of our attack on them.
Did President George W Bush have previous knowledge (Who, What, Where, When or How) the terrorist were going to attach America on 9/11?
Patriot Act, America going to War In Afghanistan, America Going to war in Iraq.
Just imagine for a moment that on September 1, 2001 our president had acted on a PDB (Presidential Daily Briefing) and proposed the Patriot Act as a proactive approach to the hinted at threats outlined in the October 4, 2001 classified document known as a PDB. There would have, and indeed has been, outrage spewed out like you could not imagine. Also, supposing President Bush had told the nation that because there were general warnings that Osama Benladen wanted to attack inside America’s borders he was declaring war on Afghanistan! After you envision the response he would have received this writer would call upon you to recall all the rant and rage he has received concerning our action in Iraq. Recall for a moment how much static has been reviled concerning placing armed guards on our airlines, or arming the pilots. There is no ‘win-win’ situation for him. He is damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t – no matter what he tries to do.
We have become a fickle nation of people. Our attention span is less than a 5 year old. Americans have become a bunch of blubbering babies. “Oh,” we say, “Guns in the cockpit? That would be so out of character for a pilot to be trusted with a side-arm. How do we know . . . why, he could do something with that gun! We trust a pilot to fly the plane safely but we can’t trust him with a fire-arm! How stupid can we be? – Stay tuned . . .
What a tragedy and travesty we have become. I have lived through a time when we went from working stable men and woman to a time when we have become a bunch of confabulating fools. I find it a incomprehensible. We sit back and scream and cry about this and that and as a result nothing is accomplished anywhere, anytime or anyhow! We’ve become a bunch of Wooda, Coulda, Wanna and in all reality are all a hyphenated ‘Can’t.’ We don’t want things that would be good for our nation while wanting things that are a disgrace to all. We don’t want the truth about what we are and are cheering on those that offer what would be wrong. Indeed, we have bought all the wrong things lock-stock-and-barrel! We no longer see or reach for the good and wonderful things God has given to us. How can we endure?
I would like to go on with this tirade but face the fact that I have little in mind to propose. I wonder how God sees us. How long will He restrain his wrath? When will God pour out his anger upon us? Will we have another chance to “turn from our evil” and wrap ourselves in His love? (Deut. 13:17; 2 Chron. 30:9; Ezek 33:11)
How can we turn our backs on such a generous God?
