LIKE IT OR NOT, IT'S GOING TO COME DOWN TO TWO CHOICES.

       You can close your ears to the future of this world's politics, this Country's politics and keep on voting the way your parents voted since 1945, but if you don't pay attention to the inner workings of today's politics for your own sake, you're already duped into following a path that you think is fruitful for you, but sadly isn't.
       You can say, " This is the way my parents voted and that's the way I'm gonna' vote. They were Democrats and so am I." but the only person you're fooling is yourself. Because the Democrats your parents voted for in the past were not the same people you'll be voting for today. Far from it.
       Except for the little non-important Marxist/Socialist party of the past, where their few little votes didn't matter anyway, It was mostly the Republicans, Independents and Democrats, all of whom generally were satisfied with the Capitalist system, which operated under the rules of  The U.S.Constitution and Bill of Rights. It was a system born of Judeo/Christian beliefs. The Presidents generally always respected the Congress (House of Representatives and Senate) and last but not least, the Supreme Court and the District Courts below them. The God loving Christians and Jews were evenly spread among those Parties. It worked well!
       People can say it wasn't and isn't perfect, but for 230 years it was tested by the rigors of time, Civil war, 2 World wars and several other major Conflicts as well, including the Cold war against Communism around the World and survived far better than any other well populated Country in the this modern Era of today.
       Yes, there was a time in the late twenties and early thirties when the monetary system of the whole modern world was overcome by inflation brought on by greed on the part of the various levels of businesses and banks. The same thing is happening in the World today. Probably not quite as catastrophic but it's for the same reason. Take particular notice of Marxist/Socialist countries of Europe who touted Socialism, mocked Capitalism and boasted Marxism under Dictatorship by various means. Yeah, we've had our slowdowns under Capitalism, but look what's happened to their monetary system that our own Socialistic Politicians are trying to sell us here. Pretty, ain't it??
       And take a good look at the two-bit, nasty changes the Marxist/Socialist Regime is trying to shove down our throats by way of Barack Obama and his White House "Chicago" style Administration while bypassing our Constitutional system entirely with unconstitutional, Presidential mandates.
       It's no longer the Democratic Party whom your Mom and Dad voted for in the past, but only a shell of it. A shell used as a cover for an entirely different direction that would eventually lead this country into the same situation as Europe is tragically in today. You, who would vote for what you think is still the Judeo/Christian Democratic Party of yesteryear, will be voting for a much different way of life than you are living now.      Just sayin'.

DID YOU EVER STAND IN A BIG BUCKET AND TRY TO LIFT YOURSELF UP BY THE HANDLE?

       Do you think it's possible for everyone to work for, be paid by the various Gov'ts, pay taxes charged by the Gov'ts, retire from it's generous pension plans and still expect the money paid to you to be worth the paper it's written on? Well.......do you??
       The silence is deafening again!!!
       Don't you see that once you have more population being paid by the Gov'ts than there are private workers earning productive dollars to support the economy that you're doing precisely that. When that happens you're standing in the bucket, my dear friend of some other dummies!! I say that because you're sure not anyone I want to befriend!
       Don't you see yourself reading this blog looking like a deer staring into the headlights?
       Well, this is exactly what the current Marxist/Socialist Party in charge of the Runaway White House has in store for you. Are you so foolish or stupid to think they're working on your behalf?
       Step out of the bucket before the next election in November, 2012, Folks, because you and I can't afford another 4 years of the kind of spending that has no future productive money coming in to support the same spending binge you just witnessed in the past 4 years.
       Have you even thought about how much a trillion dollars really is? Could your high school children tell you how much it really represents without a pencil and paper? Maybe even WITH a pencil and paper!
Just 5 years ago, it wasn't even spoken about without a tongue in cheek! It waspurely an exaggeration of expression. But the present Marxist/Socialist Gov't has brought it into stark reality to the tune of 5.6 trillion in a matter of 3&1/2  years.
       Don't be so dumb as to listen to a backer of the Socialist Regime tell you that everything they're doing has been done in the past by other Presidents. If it was, it's too late to change what they did.
       The most lame duck excuse I've ever heard was to hear one of these two bit representatives remark that it's okay to do it now, because somebody did it wrong in the past.
       Isn't that the stupidest remark for someone to expect you, as an honest individual, to believe is justifiable, to do it wrong again, and again and again?
       Would you steal from another just because an Uncle of your's did it in 1950?
       It's time to wake up and smell the roses people!!       Just sayin'.

TO THOSE WHO READ MY BLOGS AND WONDER ABOUT MY SOURCES OF INFORMATION

      When you read my blogs, you probably wonder how sincere and well founded my information is.
      With a lot of my subjective material concerning National Politics, My choices of information come from various sources that, after doing common sense research, appear to me are the most truthful. One way is by tracking the background of characters involved, what they have said in the past and whether they have true, upfront transparency for the reason they stand behind what they do.
      Call it the "measure of the information" behind the source. But after all is said and done, I have the chore of deciding what the facts truly are. That's the bottom line. The "FACTS".
      In determining the facts, I also question the sincerity and background of the person or persons publishing or making the remarks and what's in it for them personally for making the statements.
      For example: Do I think the individual has basic moral, God based beliefs, or is he an Atheist? My reason for this question is because our Country was founded by people with a Judeo/Christian background and a knowledge of God based rules such as the ten Commandments. We all know that those rules are the basic foundation of our guilt or innocence that guides us on our journey through life itself. That foundation is the backbone of our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.
      An Atheist has absolutely no reason to sense guilt for what they say or do because after death, no Godly punishment exists, or so they think. A great candidate for the Devil's work, don't you think?
      My belief in God allows me to be guided in a direction that will reward me through my life in one way or another and after death.
      With all that said, I'm inclined to believe people who tend to follow the same path I do.
      Religious beliefs vary of course. Some religions such as Islam do not base their beliefs on guilt or innocence. They are strictly based on ancient man made beliefs, beliefs that make allowances for lies and murder as long as it furthers the cause of their sacred Leader, Muhammed.
      So without the Judeo/Christian belief system, you cannot rely on the tendency they're telling the truth if they think they're lying for the sake of Muhammed. Or murdering for the sake of him, for that matter. Their sense of guilt is guided by a different philosophy and purpose; "Control" of the ignorant masses. Look how far they've progressed over thousands of years. Do the camels smell any different?
      It's not to say that Christians and Jews don't lie or kill, they do! But they do it knowing there's a punishment at the end of it all when they do, which is why the Ten Commandments are there to control us from doing so. Generally, we successfully make an attempt to abide by them.
      What other proof do we need that it works, when we have had several thousand years of proof to look back on to prove that it does? At the same time it has allowed us to progress culturally, scientifically and morally to the modern world we're living in today.
      Hence my reason why and where I place my research and facts on the side of believable judgement and believable people. I surf the Internet for information of all kinds and sources and then try to determine the most truth based on my assessment of human beings as a whole.
      It works for me! If I'm proven to be mistaken, I'll admit it. In the meantime, I refuse to be silenced by any other person with a different view than mine. The Special Interest groups who wish this Country to follow a political path that's beneficial to their own personal interests rather than the Constitutional beliefs of the majority of this country will, and do lie, in order to achieve their means.
      "Divide and Conquer" the people is being displayed every day.
      If they can silence the population that still believes in the Constitution and Bill of Rights, they will! Whatever you do, don't be silent!!    Just sayin'.

WHEN ALL SEEMS FUTILE, A "FOR GRANTED" GIFT SHOWS UP.

     
      On Friday night, when confidence in myself was at one of it's too often lows, when one illness after another took their toll in my recent past to the point that it seemed they would never stop, a gift showed up at our door around about 9:30 P.M.
      That gift was my daughter Kim and her husband Gary. Oddly enough though, I had been through a trying work day around our house in an attempt to make it look presentable outside to the neighbors and in preparation for Spring. My yawning was persistent and I couldn't get past 8:00 P.M. so I hit the sack and was asleep in minutes. As a result I missed greeting them when they arrived and so graciously allowed me to sleep.
       Sleep has a habit of overwhelming me when the "perfect Storm" of negative happenings take place and there's absolutely nothing I personally can do to reverse it or control it. Prostate Cancer treatments,  (Successful I might add), followed by 2 heart procedures and 3 stents inserted shortly after that, and then to top it all off, Diverticulitis, a bleeding condition at which point the colon bleeds excessively internally and can also be quite fatal. Believe me, it can play with my mind!
      Gratefully and with the help of prayers and encouragement from all of my Starbucks friends of all religious faiths, I was delivered through all of that by the great Hospital workers at three different hospitals without exception.
      There is no other profession in the world that can compare with the dedication and compassion that accompanies these people, from top to bottom.
      But I have a tendency to let those very important facts slip away too readily once I'm feeling physically better. I'll try not to from now on.
      So the feeling of seeing my oldest daughter, a gift born on my birthday over 50 years ago and who had undergone successful Leukemia treatments herself 5 years prior, was a bit overwhelming to say the least. I enjoyed a visit that was much too short for my liking, but I understood they had a busy schedule with it being a Canadian Memorial Day weekend and other folks to visit.
      The realization struck me as to how fortunate and full my life really is, with a couple of pretty daughters, concerned relatives, wife and friends being there to bolster my moral, and believe me it's nice to know that there's really someone who wants me to stick around.
      It's a good feeling to realize who my friends really are, who I'm comfortable with and who wants my presence. It's even nice to know the ones who don't.
      I can handle it all at my age of 75, and look forward to enjoying what years are left to come.
               Just Sayin'.

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB BEING EVICTED IN ANACORTES?

      In a news report this morning on Channel 5, they reported the notice of eviction to the local Boys and Girls club in Anacortes from a $12,000.00 per year rental being paid for the use of a vacant portion of the the National Guard Armory building in Anacortes. As I understand it, the rent is being paid by the Club itself.
      The reason given for the eviction was for more space needed to expand the National Guard program. A reasonable explanation, no doubt. The problem seems to be with the Federal Gov't not offering, or attempting to find an alternative place.
      With the Obama re-election now in question, he may have alterior plans for the need of an additional National Guard should he decide not to leave office and goes to plan "B". ( Marshall Law). Just kidding, of course! Since I believe the local National Guard is under the jurisdiction of the State, but funded by the Federal National Guard Fund.
       To get serious again, though, I happened to be reading some statistics yesterday concerning all the vacant buildings the Federal Gov't owns in America as I write this blog. We,(the Federal Gov't) currently own 900,000 buildings in the nation. 52,000 of which are partially vacant or only periodically used for impromptu meetings or storage of hundreds of thousands of purchased, never or seldom used pieces of equipment such as "official vehicles". There are an additional 14,000 buildings totally vacant, with no immediate plans for usage.
        It seems to me that for something as important as the future of our upcoming youth and the desire to set them on the right path in preparation for adulthood, better thought could be put into accommodations that would be suitable to them. Even "free" space could be afforded with a little bit of thought.
        The Mayor of Anacortes has generously offered the club the use of the City Hall basement and although with the exception of it being rather small for their required needs, is at least a step in the right direction. Good thinking on the City's part and "Hats off" to them! But considering ultimate responsibility here, maybe the Federal Gov't could set aside it's "political mode" for a moment and tend to business at hand that's so important as our Country's future "Handlers".
        So come on, you "so important" Gov't planners, get your "responsibility" hats on and look after business as we would expect you to!        Just sayin'.

TO THE GREAT FOLKS AT VIRGINIA-MASON HOSPITAL.

     
        Approximately a month ago, I was rushed to Virginia-Mason Hospital in Seattle with a bleeding condition that was considered very serious and threatening to my health.
        First of all, let me say that in the past year and a half, I had been diagnosed and treated for stage 2 prostate cancer at Skagit State Hospital in Mt. Vernon, Washington. The treatment was performed by the staff in Radiology and I must say couldn't have been more thorough and expertly done. I was, and still am, delighted with the follow-up results that show the cancer is in decline, much to the delight of everyone concerned. A special kind of dedicated people indeed.
        But much to my chagrin, 2 weeks after completing treatment it was discovered through blood tests that I had 3 complete blockages in my aorta and another 90% blockage in an artery even closer to my heart. Once again, I was  admitted to C.C.U. and after receiving the best care anyone could ask for, it was determined I should receive stents to correct the situation, but this time the Cardiologist felt he should perform the operation in the Cardiology facility in Providence  Hospital, N. Everett, since my condition might require open heart surgery should there be any complications with the stent insertion procedure. Once again, everything went according to plan and a beautiful job was done by one and all.
        After feeling better and everything seemed to be okay, I decided to go back to work at my posponed Handyman business. I thought I was over the hump of illnesses once and for all. Two weeks after returning to my work, I was suddenly stricken with a bleeding infection in my colon and was admitted to Skagit Valley Hospital where they were not able to diagnose the problem but realized I would soon bleed to death without tests that could be more readily diagnosed at Virginia Mason in Seattle. The race was on!
        After a whole battery of tests and intrusive procedures, I t was found to have an infected colon called Diverticulitis. The bleeding stopped on it's own, and after several days of post observation, I was allowed to return home to what I hope is another shot at normalcy. Although I have been warned the condition can and probably will reoccur. No guarantees, but after all, who ever gets those anyway?
        I have received a letter from Virginia Mason requesting I remark on the treatment I received while there.
        Well, here goes. I couldn't have been treated better! Being a patient strictly dependent on Medicare meant nothing in the way I was treated by everyone in the hospital facility. There was absolutely no concern expressed by the staff from top to bottom regarding my ability to pay for treatment. No costs were spared in their attempt to save my life when it was on the line. and it WAS on the line.
         At the moment I have no ability to make a donation, but when I can, I certainly will. I can't thank you all enough for the superb way you all handled yourselves without exception and with professionalism at it's best. I owe my life to the whole Medical world of Skagit, Snohomish and King County. Thank you!!!

SOMEONE TELL ME FOR SURE, WHO IS THIS MAN ? WHAT DOES HE REALLY WANT?

       Is he really a Conservative? Or a Liberal, or a Progressive, or a Socialist? Well that depends on which speech you may have watched lately, doesn't it? Personally, there's no doubt in my mind anymore, he's a man who wishes to rule the Islamic World as Muslim Leader, while at the same time rule the Modern World as an Atheist. He has been thoroughly educated as both.
      Is he an American man as his American birth certificate says? Or s he an African man, as his Kenyan birth certificate says, that he used to obtain a Pakistani entry passport when he visited Pakistan during a "no entry" policy for Americans circa 1981.
      Or is he again Kenyan as he proved in order to obtain a passport to enter Indonesia around the same time?
      Is he really Barack Hussein Obama born in Hawaii Aug. 4th, 1961? Or is he really Barry Soetoro, born in Kenya, Aug 4th, 1961?
     Who really is he?
     In his book, "Dreams of my Father", he refers to a girlfriend throughout his younger days as "Julia".
     It turns out "Julia" was a total composite he made up of many girlfriends during that time, in order to make his book more personally attractive.
       Did he really hold 3 separate passports, American, Indonesian and Pakistani passports at the same time under different origins of birth?    Records showed he did.
       Is he really Muslim? Is he really Christian? Is he really Atheist as his past suggests, since he was strongly associated with Chicago's infamous, Atheist oriented "Midwest Academy" ?
       Did he really teach in any of the Colleges or Universities in the United States as his friends like to suggest? Is that why no one can produce evidence that he ever taught anything anywhere in the U.S.?
       Investigations can uncover no proof he did. There is no evidence that he ever taught a class!
       Did he study the U.S. Constitution so he could dishonor and dispute it? I think so!  Does he believe in it? I don't believe so.
       Was he ever "poor"? No. Did he ever lift a shovel? Did he ever pay for his college education or did he always manage to finagle it one way or another on someone else's dime?  Surely  the U.S. Taxpayer's!
      If he was born in Hawaii, how did he manage to get a foreign student grant to go to an American College? Research it! He did!
       Did he ever hold down a non-gov't related job?
       Who really is this non-slave related foreigner who never paid his dues but claims to be in the same boat as the African/Americans such as Herman Cain, Martin Luther king, and the rest of the slave related descendants who did?
     Is he exploiting the born in America, direct descendant African/American group of people who did fight for their independence in the Civil War, the Spanish-American war, the 1st and 2nd World war, the Korean war, the Vietnam war, the Iraq war and the ongoing Afghanistan war? 
     Yet he doesn't know what the inside of a uniform looks like, let alone doesn't respect? Did he mislead the minority groups of this country to believe they've been treated unfairly in order to get re-elected in Nov. 2012?
       Should any man who is President of the United States ignore and disrespect the National Anthem by not holding his hand to his chest while everybody else does?
       Should any man who is President of the United states decide that it's okay to totally bypass the duly elected Congress of the United States as is required by the Constitution? 
     Does he have cause to show us, he alone thinks he knows what different direction is best for a Country our people have existed in for 250 years, while he has only lived on the dole from for 28 years? Are you trying to kid me???    Just askin'.
     

RETRAINING ? MOVING FORWARD? OBAMA AND HIS ATHEIST/SOCIALISTS THINK SO!

      The greatest drain on the American way of life besides a Recession/Depression, (If you still have some work, it's a lull in the economy, if you're still collecting Unemployment benefits and are about to lose your home, it's a Recession and if you have depleted your Unemployment benefits and are on food stamps and Welfare, and have lost your home, it's definitely a Depression. You can take it on yourself to determine what category you fit into.) is the outsourcing of jobs in general to other countries of the world besides ours.
      It's really quite simple to reason why this has taken place. The major manufacturing and service companies have been allowed to expand to the point where they have taken control of the competitors either by buying them out with an "offer they can't refuse" or by underpricing the smaller competitors out of business. Eliminating competition eliminates competitive prices. This happened under the noses of our Government because of a lack of regulations that could have been in place to protect the consumer's interest. Namely by not allowing one  Corporation to eliminate it's competitors to the point where it it has total control over the market. Once the major Corporations took control, they then convinced the Gov't. to allow job outsourcing to other countries that have a much lower standard of living and pay rate than this country has. Again due to lack of consumer protection regulation. Some Companies didn't even have to outsource to do it, such as Power companies and Utility companies. They pretty much charge what they want, like it or lump it. You simply have no choice but to pay the costs or have those very essential services cut off. Again because the Gov't neglected to be sure there were consumer protection regulations in place requiring a certain amount of minimum competitors. To put it gently, gov't regulations are more and more for regulating the consumer rather than protecting them. And then some Gov't Agencies regulate just for the sake of being there. First for the power, and then for the tenured money. They're virtually recession proof.
      For instance, the infamous EPA. Immune from Civil prosecution, they're untouchable.
      So what's this "Moving forward" stuff that the Atheist/Socialists are telling us? They can only mean retraining to more menial jobs than the jobs that once were, because the productive jobs are now over in China and other Third world countries and until we, the people, install a gov't that's willing to regulate the deportation of productive jobs through proper regulation, it's going to continue happening. Otherwise the expression of Obama's called "moving forward" actually means moving "backward" to the standard of living in the third world countries. How could it possibly mean anything else?
      So what they're really saying to us is, "Quit complaining, take what we have to offer you, get on with it, like it or lump it !!"
      I believe the "Well Oiled Machine", along withe Barack Obama, has the notion we have been living too lavish a lifestyle in the past while other 3rd world countries have not, and they're going to change that notion to teach us "freedom loving, greedy Americans" a lesson. A "Different direction" is their motto but it's certainly not "true" North they're talking about.
      Otherwise, they would have taken the time to present us with a better plan, don't you think?
      Can you think of any other logical reason for their Godless, brain dead planning?
      Once again, the silence is deafening!!   Just sayin'.
   
 

OH MY GOSH! WE'VE UPSET CHINA! SHIVER, SHIVER, SHIVER!!!

     The problem with the above title is, it's not funny. Just look at the Obama Administration pussyfoot around now! We don't dare upset China over some blind dissident wanting to follow the lead of Democracy. How dare he reveal that he and his family were tortured to disfigurement while being held in jail? How dare he escape to the American Embassy and put Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama in the very nervous position of having to defend a refugee against a Communist Nation who has done nothing but stolen Nuclear secrets from under the noses of a Liberal Clinton Administration,supported the Communist North Korea in the Korean war, supported the Communist North Vietnamese in the Vietnam war and taken two thirds of the good, productive jobs away from workers in the U.S. ? Are you sure China isn't still waging war on us?
      Be sure not to tickle them in the wrong spot, Barack. We don't want to lose this kiss-butt relationship you've got going there!
      Regardless of your decision on this Barack, you've already showed your true cowardly image to the American people and the real direction you want to take us, which is not the direction of Democracy and Judeo/Christian beliefs that we've been so successful with in the past.
      Instead of solidly defending the human rights of this man, you worried about how the Chinese would be angry with you if you did! The whole Free World is watching you now.
      More than anything else besides me wanting to see the poor man defended, I'm tickled pink that you are showing the free world what I've been telling them all along in my blogs concerning you.
      You are not a loyal american as you would want us to believe, but a shameless man who never had any respect for the U.S. Constitution since you entered our Sacred country in 1984. You have committed the cowardly act of handing him back to the Chinese like he was a bail of hay, instead of demanding the release of his family as well. Being the sociopathic man that you are, you have no shame. Thank God I still have the Constitutional right to print this blog. But for how long? just sayin
       
   

NPR RADIO IS USING A TOTAL OF AT LEAST 16% OF IT"S GROSS INCOME FROM PUBLIC AND TAXPAYER FUNDS.

   
      So why are they allowed to be so horrendously one sided in their political opinions and reporting? I mean, if they were any more left wing, they'd be somewhere out in the Pacific Ocean!
     Why does the Congress allow this to happen? Why do the States, Counties and Local Gov'ts allow it? Shouldn't they demand fairness and well balanced reporting in return for their money?
     Approximately 2 years ago, when Juan Williams, a moderate Liberal leaning reporter voiced his opinion that wasn't to the taste of the Socialist/Atheist Debbie Wasserman Schultz, She fired him for it. True, it raised a firestorm of protests that caused her to apologize for her caustic remarks toward him, but the firing stuck and happily to his benefit and dismay to NPR, he was hired by Fox News at a pay raising contract that has put a permanent smile on his face to say the least anyway. At last, he's in with the big boys now.
     He remains a Moderate Liberal, but to his credit, he reports and comments in a fair and balanced fashion that seems to be lost in the latter day, Communist leaning NPR. He still defends his beliefs.
     Wouldn't you assume that any organization who receives public funds of any source where the money is derived from Taxpayers, Federal, State, County or Local, should not be allowed to lean toward any political source? Am I fair with that assumption, or just too honest and naive? Maybe all of the above! It's amazing how the Sheeple keep listening to NPR without realizing they're only listening to a small portion of the real news.    Just sayin'.
     But it still doesn't stop me from questioning the dishonesty and insincerity of it all.
   

BARACK OBAMA RELIES ON SHORT MEMORIES.

     So where was Barack Obama yesterday, May 1st, when his Community Organizers, awe inspired Union leaders and Atheist followers joined the naive "Occupiers" in their unruly displays across the Nation? Complete with the black garbed, hooded "Anarchists" all disguised the same way, all wearing backpacks and all destroying everything systematically in sight. Then when confronted by the police, faded into the crowd of misled "Occupiers" to change into their normal garb so no one would be able to identify them. In their wake, they left behind destroyed store fronts, broken windows and slashed tires for the owners to contend with. Well, Barack just happened to be on a very important, unscheduled trip to Afghanistan!
     May 1st being a Communist inspired Holiday, since it was established circa 1921 along with other Socialist countries proclaiming it World International Worker's day. In the past it's been a favorite day for Communist Nations. Would-be Communist nations enjoy it as well, but using different, "worker" inspired names. It was actually a time for celebration and rejoicing. But now it's been twisted around to be a day to protest. Great timing by Obama, wouldn't you say?
     Tell me, what workers in any of those nations have lived as well a "Worker's" life as we live here in the United States under Capitalism? Well, don't everybody speak at once!!! The silence is deafening!
It sort of reminds me of the convicted killer complaining because he's being hung with an old rope. Know what I mean?
     Are we supposed to forget the first Wall Street protest where a ragtag bunch of bums decided to march on Wall St.? I haven't!
     When they first appeared with their cardboard signs, charity acquired sleeping bags and drug paraphenalia and crapping anywhere they could in the streets? I haven't! It was then the champion of Community Organizers, Barack Obama, seized on the opportunity to collect potential votes he may need in November, 2012, by speaking out on behalf of the protesters and sending out his Anarchist followers, Union organizers and Community organizing thugs to emphasize the cause.
     Suddenly, the cardboard signs disappeared to be replaced with big professionally printed ones, bull horns, New Black panther leaders, Atheists Michael Moore and Van Jones. Why, they just appeared out of nowhere, didn't they? Portable toilets appeared out of nowhere too. They needed  them when those two showed up!
     And coincidentally, Barack disappeared on one of his very frequent overseas trips to the European Union or something like that back then, in order to avoid any unpleasant confrontation. You know how the Lefties always like to avoid confrontation! They do it by saying what they have to say, starting something, and then clamming up or disappearing into thin air because they don't care for unpleasant confrontation.
     Barack Obama is a tactful user of other people, standing back after he has started something, watching it unfold to his liking, and when confronted with the situation by the Press, he say's "Who, me???" It's just another slippery trick he picked up at the Atheist, Saul Alinsky founded "Midwest Academy" in Chicago Illinois while he was a member of it's board.
     Do yourself a big favor, Readers, look up the history of "The Midwest Academy" and the associates of Barack Obama who all attended there at one time or another including Atheist Bill Aires. You'll get the real notion as to where he's coming from. A true chameleon.
     He's laughing at us while I write this blog.    Just sayin'.

SHOULD WE SACRIFICE OUR TOP SECRETS AND STANDARD OF LIVING TO SUIT THE REST OF THE WORLD?

      Circa sixty seven years ago, the "Cold War" between "True" Democracy and "Marxist" based Communism began. East Berlin had fallen to the Soviet Bloc and West Berlin to the United States, Britain and their Democratized Allies. Almost immediately the flood of refugees from East Berlin to West Berlin began with the realization of the Refugees that they had at last been freed from Hitler's tyrannical regime only to be dumped into the Clutches of Russian Communism.
      The Communists saw this mass exodus going on and to stop it, they erected the infamous Berlin Wall.
      The weapons race was on with the Allies continually gaining the upper hand as the Cold war progressed over the years. The Communist inspired Nations, mainly the Chinese and North Koreans became involved in the race, mainly backed by the United Soviet Socialist Republic. The "U.S.S.R."
      The USSR had simply enveloped the Slavic/Russian speaking Nations that had previously been invaded and held by the Nazi Regime of Adolph Hitler. From the frying pan into the fire, you could say, because life under the Russian rule, was worse for them after the Soviet takeover than before.
      Their lives were now governed by Socialist Mandates, one after the other.
      I must point out that although the Communists competed with us in both domestic and military means, only once did they excel over us in the regard that they managed to put an astronaut into space just shortly before we did. That was very short lived because on July 21st, 1969, Neil Armstrong was the first man to set foot on the moon and no one else from another country has ever done it since.
      The Communist nations, their populace living perpetually in Socialist world poverty, have not even tried it, even with the help of the Administration of Bill Clinton and now the Marxist/Socialist Administration of Barack Obama allowing them to help themselves to our latest technology.
      Under Democracy and Free market Capitalism, the United States and the common people have flourished beyond any other country in the World, bar none.
      Our big mistake in my way of thinking, is we're killing ourselves with kindness to the other envious nations who would like nothing better, than to see America reduced to a 3rd world status.
      With the Socialist Countries having bankrupcy around their necks like a hangman's noose, a true proof of philosophy failure because of the tail wagging the dog, here we are about to watch the "Well oiled Socialist Regime" led by Barack Obama, force it down our throats! Is there something wrong with this picture?
       Does this make sense to you??? Instead of the Marxist/Socialist nations developing their own technology, they were and are, simply letting us go to the expense of developing it, and then sucking  it out of us by one means or another. For example, during the Clinton Administration,  diplomat by the last name of Lee, a scientist and assistant to the North Korean Ambassador at the time, was allowed to come and go without restriction into the Dept. of Energy. His visits were back and forth many times.
     The Dept. just happens to house the latest in Nuclear and Top secret energy technology. It's curious to note that Bill Richardson, the Secretary of Energy, claims to have known nothing about it at the time.
     Duh!! Many top secret documents disappeared concerning nuclear weapons and long range missile technology. The next thing you know, North Korea announced it had finally developed this technology. Coincidence? I don't think so.
        The next "oops" was when they finally got bin Laden and had to leave a disabled transport helicopter behind that just happened to have the latest in battle technology aboard. No self destruct capabilities though!! And then a drone with the latest search and destroy capabilities aboard wanders away and safely lands itself in hostile Pakistani territory. Again with no self destruct capabilities aboard. The Pakistanis (and who else) set to dismantling that equipment immediately.
      My question to all of this is; After analyzing the whole World situation, why on earth would we want to change from the best standard of living in the world, to follow the lead of a bunch of proven failures? Why should we feel ashamed of our standard of living just because the rest of the world didn't have the gumption to follow us instead of Communism and Socialism? They lost, we won!  Why give up the luxuries we enjoy for the sake of the rest of the world? Why??? It's obvious that if we do, they're still going to despise us anyway! I'll repeat what I quoted from a retired American General in an earlier blog, "I wonder who dislikes us the most, the ones where we kicked their asses, or the ones where we saved them??"  It's food for thought.  Just sayin'.

ON APRIL 29th, 1900, MY MOTHER ELLA JEAN BEUTEL WAS BORN.

      She was born of Bavarian descent in a Jackson, Minnesota hospital, just a few miles across the border from her home in Spirit Lake, Iowa.
      At the age of 4, Ella Jean Beutel and her parents left by train for Kalispel, Mont., enroute to their planned homestead at the settlement town of Eureka, Mont.. After reaching Kalispel, they then traveled the remaining distance of 85 miles to Eureka by horse and wagon, taking 3 additional days.
      There, they finally established their family homestead. Ella Jean grew up in that quiet little logging and mining community, but not before being joined at the age of six by her sister Alice and then a brother Lawrence 2 years later. She rode her horse back and forth to school, both winter and summer, and until she graduated at the age of 18.
      At the tender age of 19, she met and married our father, John D. McNaughton who had just been honorably discharged from the Canadian Army and fresh from being a machine gunner in the 1st world war. They went on to produce 11 children over a period of the next 18 years. With our Dad being a casualty both physically and mentally of the war, the increasing family burden on our mother was more than a cross to bear, but she withstood it in a way throughout the years that couldn't be outdone by anyone else, and particularly the manner in which she did it. Through all of the chores she had no choice but to undertake, she walked proudly and with dignity ahead of us to the Catholic Church each week. Even when all she could afford was a dime for the collection plate, she made sure we got there every Sunday.
       I'm sure my mother's biggest challenge was in making sure there was enough food for the table, since our  Dad hardly ever brought a paycheck home in support of the family. When he did land a job, he would be in a logging camp somewhere for a month or two. When he did get paid, he seldom ever made his way home until it was gone. At which time he would come home and devour part of a venison roast that was mean't for the rest of the family. Then he'd leave again on his drinking spree.
       I don't intentionally mean to demean my father, since I can only imagine what he suffered during  the first world war with it's mustard gas and all, but I find it necessary to describe it in illustrating what it put our beautiful, dear mother through in her trying efforts to raise a family of eleven.
       At times, she would sit us all down to dinner and then take up her position in a chair by the kitchen window, gazing out at the neighborhood while the rest of us ate, and going without food herself so we would have enough for us kids.
       More than enough times that I want to remember, she would burst out sobbing at the challenge of it all, with no one to appeal for help to but God. We would all gather around her while she did this and coax her not to cry, telling her things would get better, even though we didn't know how.
       We all made it through that life, with the 2nd world war on, and two of our oldest brothers, a brother-in-law and our Dad again in the mix. But we all made it through as we watched Mom baking dozens and dozens of cookies to send to them wherever they were in overseas service. They all came home.
        After the last of the brood married and moved away from home in our small town of Fernie, B.C., Canada in 1959, Our mother returned to the States and settled down to the job of raising retarded children in a hospital facility in Boulder, Mont. until she retired at the age of 65. From then on, although she could have lived with anyone in the family, she took up residence in Seattle Wa. where she could be near all of us, and we visited her frequently. At the ripe old age of 99, she passed away in her sleep as she always wished she would.
        Since then, I decided to look up the history of my mother's maiden name, Beutel. I was pleasantly surprised with what I learned. The name goes back to the middle ages in Bavaria when a family's last name was sometimes attached to the trade they were in for earning a living. In the Beutel case,They were a family of wood stave barrel makers for beer and wine casks. they became so well known in their talent for producing these "butes" (containers) that the name became a part of Bavarian Aristocracy as the name Beutel. They were a well known, well off family and were so much a part of the wine and beer system that they also had a special tartan in their name. I must say it is a very pretty 3 tone blue and something my mother, with her astute manner of walking and always with her head held high each week as we followed her to church, would have been so proud of.
        I know now why she was so adept in the making of beautiful wedding dresses she used to sew in order to enhance the family income. I'm so honored to be one of her sons.
        I have written this story in honor of my mother, who is I'm sure, celebrating her 112th birthday somewhere with some of our older siblings in the great beyond, and smiling down on the rest of us this day. a day when Prince William and Kate are celebrating their first anniversary as well.
        Also on a day of infamy when Hitler married Ava Braun. Where they died in a bunker by their own hand a short time later. April 29th, 1945.   Just sayin'.

BEFORE THE PERFECT STORM OF ILLNESSES.

     In the beginning of my youthful years in which I never thought far enough ahead to realize they would someday leave me, I was of the foolish notion that they would never end. Simply because the last years of my life seemed so far away to waste time thinking about it.
     I glided through each year day by day, and although I lost friends along the way to accidents and illnesses, it never happened to me. Sometimes I wondered if for some unknown purpose, I was being kept immune from all that stuff. Why not me?
     Although I saw other friends injured or killed in accidents, I was always the witness and not a participant. My second oldest son for example, climbed aboard an offroad motorbike at the age of 17 after being asked by me to not do it. He had never been on one before in his life, but he did it anyway and it resulted in him hitting a house, smashing his head in and setting off a chain of disastrous events that, later in his life would haunt him and eventually kill him by means of a brain tumor at the age of 49. The doctors determined it was that very serious accident that started the benign growth. But I went on, thinking why not me?
      I had two friends along the way who loved to drive their cars on 2 wheels around sharp, dangerous curves and with whom I rode many times when they did. They both died in separate accidents at different times. I wasn't there both times. Why not me?
     I took more than my share of chances in my life, but always came away unscathed. I worked in the hard rock mines for three years in Butte Mont. in 1963, '64 and '65 alongside my older brother John, and although I had a partner killed in an explosion, I came away uninjured throughout those dangerous years. I saw others injured, but not me!
     Sometimes I paused to wonder again, why not me?
     In 1987, I lost my oldest son at the age of 30 to a deadly encounter with the Hell's Angels in Cranbrook, B.C. Canada. They robbed him of his prescription Demerol for his arthritic knees. They murdered him. No one was ever charged. But I went on, wondering, why not me?
     Then at the age of 73, I decided it was time for me to find a doctor of my choice and have a general checkup. I had been treating myself for mild Diabetes over the past years but suspected nothing else. It was discovered I had stage 2 prostate cancer and radiation was administered for the next four months with the latest in cancer treatment technology. The treatment has proven to be successful. Approximately three weeks after the treatments concluded, I was affected by dizziness and after being treated at the Skagit Valley Emergency Room, it was determined I had 4 four major blockages in my aorta and heart. Three total and one 90%. After considering the seriousness and the delicate condition of my veins. I was transferred to Providence Hospital where I received stents to correct the condition. That also seems to have worked. Eight months after and just two weeks ago, I awoke having to go to the bathroom and to my surprise discovered my colon had released a heavy amount of blood. 8 days followed, during which time I came dangerously close to passing on. They were simply having a hard time keeping me supplied with blood to keep up with the amount I was losing. I have gradually recovered with the determination that I am afflicted by Diversiticulitis. A thinning of the sidewall of the lower bowel. (Colon). Treatment will continue as I speak. But now the question arises in a different respect. Why not me?   Just sayin'.

TO WHOM IS A SECRET SERVICE ULTIMATELY LOYAL TO WHEN ASSIGNED TO THE PRESIDENT?DOES HE OR SHE SWEAR TO BE LOYAL TO THE MAN OR THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES?

    Ultimately, Who would they respond to?
    Because, in the case of Barack Obama, he or she can't possibly be both! This President is already making it more increasingly awkward every day for any agent who has sworn to be loyal to the American flag and what it represents, and still be loyal to him with his mandating the laws of this country over the authority of the Congress and the Constitution of the United States. He has been currently, systematically doing just that!
     Let's nightmarishly pretend he declares Martial law under which he presumes ultimate power over the Country. Then he orders them and the Military to Quell all civil objections that may arise. He suspends all civil law that may interfere with his intentions. then he throws us into the socialist, political mix along with the New World Order which of course follows his lead.
     Aren't you wondering why he is bypassing the House And the Senate with his executive orders and sending billions of dollars to the countries such as Egypt who have failed and have adopted Sheriah Law? Have you wondered what he mean't when he was caught on camera telling our cold war enemy Russian President to wait for the defensive weapons reduction until after his Nov. 2012 Election, at which time he would have more flexibility to act on it? We weren't supposed to hear that!
     I believe he's paving the way with our taxpayer dollars, Folks! Then after and above all of that, Obama can become President of the New World Order.
     But he can't become any of this until he gets re-elected to the Presidency in Nov. 2012, which he's already campaigning for at the expense of the American taxpayer, with the help of the illegal immigrants being allowed to vote if he can swing it, and the fraudulent voters he's amassing through the new organizations that have resurrected themselves from the infamous "Acorn" bunch who were disbanded due to Fraudulent,illegal activity in 2010.
     Is any of this likely? Hardly for now. Is it possible? Yes!! Go to Google and click onto "Martial Law in the U.S." You can bet he thinks so! Can it be avoided? Yes, if you wake up from this nightmare now instead of after the Nov. 2012 election! WAKE UP AND BEWARE FOLKS! You'd be crazy to put anything past this guy and his "Well Oiled Machine" standing behind him and doing the navigating.
     Haven't you noticed the extreme arrogance and confidence all of his staff are proceeding with, even when faced with all the illegal activity they've been caught doing, such as the "Fast and furious" debacle where they've been caught selling thousands of automatic weapons to the Mexican Drug Cartels? The billions of dollars that have disappeared into thin air to who knows where? Wouldn't you think they have been assured by Barack Obama not to worry, that he'll protect them when he wins the next election? Do you not see the over-confident assurance they behave with when confronted by Congress concerning all these underhanded activities? To the very last one, they're being loyal to the core, and it has to be with the assurance of someone who has promised to protect them. Barack Hussein Obama and his "Well Oiled,Political Machine."
     At what point in time would they, the Secret Service and Military, refuse to take his orders?
     Oh gosh, I just woke up!! Thank Heaven!!!   Just sayin'.

THE PROGRAMMED, PLASTIC SMILES OF THE MARXIST, SOCIALIST SPOKESMEN OF THE "WELL OILED, OBAMA REGIME"

      A perfect place to see an example of it is when they're being interviewed by an honest to goodness Host of "Fox News". They all behave the same way, no matter who they are. I've pointed it out in a previous blog, but I want to emphasize it again to the unaware, earnest listener who assumes the honesty of it all.
      Allan Colmes , a dedicated "Lefty" is a good one to watch. Like the rest, he always poses with a smile like he is  ready and amused by any question that's about to be asked. It's the "I know something you don't" smile concerning the "secrets" behind the "Well oiled, Obama Regime".
      When asked a serious question he knows he can't give an honest answer to, He, again like the others, busts out laughing to avoid having to respond verbally to it. And it works!!
      As I speak, they all conduct themselves the same way. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, pick one!!
      The interviewer follows up, pointing out the gist of his or her question and remarking that Alan is avoiding the answer, but Alan begins overtalking the interviewer, staring off into space as though programmed by hypnosis and, without hearing a word that's being said, continues on doubletalking until silence pursues. It's commonly referred to as "fillibustering." The plastic smile never leaves, though.
      It's one of the oldest, unpleasant but successful means of stopping the opposition from making an honest point that exists today. Any prominent Socialist does it, and when they do run out of words, which isn't often enough, they aren't hearing any other word that's being said anyway. it's almost as though they've totally shut their minds off to what makes sense until they themselves dream up something else for them to say. Sometimes during that lull, they stare off into space and bust out laughing as though Bill Maher just whispered something vulgar in their ear. You all know Bill Maher don't you? The pig headed guy with the obscene, oversized face that's thinks he's funny?
       He's the Marxist/Atheist who never knows when to shut up and gets paid while doing it.
       Boy oh boy, is God gonna have fun with that guy!!!
       He's the fella that showed up at one of the latest actor's guild ceremonies holding hands with a gal with a herpes cold sore on her lip. Wonder where she got that???  Just sayin.'

THE DISCONNECT BETWEEN ROMNEY AND THE UNDECIDED VOTER

     There's a large bloc of undecided voters out there, just waiting to be convinced who to vote for. Their knowledge on politics is limited because the only time they usually pay attention to the incumbents and the challengers is at election time.
      For various reasons of their own in the past, they felt they had better things to do with their off work hours than to keep track of politics. They simply depended on their favorite News channel to convey the election information in a simple way to indicate who they should vote for, and that was good enough for them. If they are convinced by the superficial reporting of the facts and figures they hear and see, they vote that way, assuming naturally that they're being told the truth as they have been in the past. If they only knew!!! There is no honest Democratic Party anymore!
      These listeners are the real, Independent citizen who knows there's something wrong with the Country, but since they haven't had to learn more about the system in the past, they aren't aware of the mistruths that are being peddled to them and who's doing it. They only want things to get better.
      Now, Among'st these people who are also called the "swing" voters, if you take an expert, convincing speaker who is bettered by none in communications and public speaking, he or she can spellbound the audience with simple understandable lingo that they understand. The speaker knows he is captivating the audience and while they're in that captivated mode, gives out facts and figures that can be totally erroneous, but it doesn't matter,because the speaker knows that at least half of the listeners are going to believe it anyway and he has their vote. Who fits the "speaker" bill?? Barack Hussein Obama!!!!! And totally at the taxpayer's expense because he has manufactured some fickle reason he's in that particular town on official business.
      My point is, because the figures and comments aren't necessarily coming from him, but from one of several teleprompters in front of him, it's a speech that's not manufactured by him, but by the great, "Well oiled machine" that's really running the show from behind the scenes. The Marxist/Socialist group who always hides in the wings. Debbie Wasserman Schultz for example.
      Romney isn't necessarily at fault here. He's right in his messages, but he's failing to communicate to the same crowd Obama is talking to because he's talking over their heads with information that's too involved and too much all at once for them to take the time to understand. Bad economy, jobs, creating private sector stability and lowering unemployment they've already heard a hundred times, and half of it out of the mouth of Barack Obama! They don't know who's telling the truth except to know Obama's more convincing and therefore his remarks are going to stay in their mind longer.
      They don't know when he's lying or when Romney is. Obama and the "Well oiled machine" knows they can cinch 50% of the Independent vote as long as half the group I'm referring to believe him. They will then depend on the usually expected fraudulent voters to push them over the top.
      BINGO!!! They're in!!! So unless Romney and his backers start playing hardball and get directly down to pointing out to the voters the blatant dishonesty in the remarks and disinformation being fed them and in a way this particular bloc of Independent voters understand, they're going to allow Barack Obama to smirk his arrogant way back into the White House. His secret is talking in their language. The truth, to him, matters not. He simply blurts out things you want to hear with absolutely no regard to the dishonesty in it. Every day they can prove something he says a lie, because it is!!
      If they can't dig up the gonads to bring out the hypocrisy and fight fire with fire, they don't deserve to win. Once they have proven the dishonesty that truly exists in this guy and hit below the belt in the same manner he is doing, his manner of sounding honest will diminish in the eyes of the people who count the most in this election. The Independent voter.
      Just sayin.

GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER LYNN. YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN THROUGH HELL, GOD SPEED YOU TO ETERNAL PEACE.

       Lynn was born in A little coal mining town of Fernie, B.C. Canada, 4 years before me and under the same circumstances as us younger siblings of the John D. McNaughton family. My sister Joyce came along after that and then me, followed lastly by sister Jeannie.
       Our family, like many other families in the same situation as ours, was truly poor. Our's more extremely so, not just because of the Great Depression, but also due to an alcoholic father who never mentally survived the first World War as a machine gunner in the Canadian Army. But this is about Lynn, not the rest of us.
       Being the 8th of 11 children and the seventh of eight boys, he was part of a hand-me-down world for pretty well everything he received. At a time such as it was, Stark reality was the norm. For my Mother it was even more so and with her being so busy trying to make a life for us all, there wasn't time for her to sit down with us separately each time for long when we needed comfort and sympathy over a minor scrape. There simply wasn't the time! It was no different for Lynn. He grew up in a "struggle for survival" mode right through his teenage years and until he became a member of the survey crew with the Construction Branch of the B.C. Dept. of Highways.
       But as Lynn grew up through the ranks of the teenage era, I want to recall some of the good things he did for me as a protective, older brother in those same years along the way.
       I remember an incident when I was ten years old. It was summer, the Swimming pool had opened and school was out for the Summer Season. Lynn had gotten his first job doing summer work on Bricker's farm just 2 miles out of town. It was a sunny, fun day and all the kids were playing soccer on the grass beside the pool. I noticed Lynn come into the pool area in his work clothes, all tired and dusty. He simply watched as we continued to play. There was a 14 year old Scottish boy visiting from Scotland who had decided who could play and who couldn't. I was chosen not to play. so as the game went on, the ball accidentally came my way, so I attempted to kick it back but it rolled into the pool. In a fit of temper, Scottie ran over to me and slugged me on the side of the face, not knowing Lynn was sitting there watching. Too bad for Scottie is all I can say.
      Lynn was always there for me in hockey season, with me playing in the PeeWee league and him playing in Juvenile. He would be there to cheer me on. He pretty well had to stay, with me wearing some of his equipment and all. Especially using his hockey stick which always seemed to be at a premium, then and now as a matter of fact!
      As we grew older, I too joined the Dept. of Highways Construction Branch and we worked together on the same projects survey wise, with Lynn being a senior Instrumentman on one crew and me as a levelman on another. I had already married and Lynn hadn't.
      Lynn had a chainman on his crew named Lou Bootsma and on week-ends they would take off in Lou's car and head for the city lights looking for female company,but they always were back for work on Monday morning. Except for one very unfortunate Labor Day weekend that will never be forgotten in our family.
      Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and then Thursday came with still no sign of Lynn and Lou. Then the office phone rang beside my elbow. It was an R.C.M.P. officer wanting to know if a Lou Bootsma worked for us. I replied "Yes". He went on to say he had died instantly in a car accident sometime on Sunday afternoon, after blowing a tire on a sharp curve and plummeting over a 300 foot cliff on the Creston/ Nelson highway along Kootenay Lake. My heart raced as I asked him,"Well, what about the other guy that was with him?" After a long pause off the phone he came back and asked, "What was his name?" I replied "Lynn McNaughton." Another long pause and then," We didn't know Lou had anyone with him, but he's in the Creston Hospital suffering from severe head injuries. He was also found miles down the road by a traveler who saw him wandering in a roadside ditch all bloody and mosquito bitten just today, four days later."
      Well, Lynn fully recovered from that accident as far as the doctors were concerned, but it took a long while to. He had multiple head fractures with multiple areas of concussion. But to our family, Lynn was a different man from that time on. His moods of depression certainly increased over the years.
      Not long after that, I was offered a job by the City of Cranbrook as a surveyor for them. I knew that Lynn wanted to have that job and told him if he wanted it, I would introduce him to the engineer who offered it to me. I did and he got the job.
      In 1963, Lynn met a pretty lady 10 years his elder and they married. No children were in the making and as the years went on, his wife Elizabeth was stricken with Rheumatoid Arthritis and quickly became unable to dress or undress herself, do her hair or even cook for that matter.
     Lynn never complained. He took care of everything.
      Good luck came his way in the purchase of a Canadian Lottery ticket right about then!. He won $100,000.00 tax free. A joyful time for them indeed. As far as money was concerned, it wasn't a problem for the rest of their lives.
      Lynn retired when he turned 65 and settled down to care for Elizabeth.It was tremendously difficult for him because all there was left of her was a frail, totally helpless and twisted up old lady.
      Eventually Elizabeth was placed in a care home where she could continue to be cared for.
      Soon after that, Lynn was found wandering aimlessly on the streets and was escorted to the hospital.  His mental and health condition failed, he went blind to the point where he refused to acknowledge anyone.
      He passed away this morning in his sleep, just as our Mother did in 1999.
      We all love you Lynn, and know with all the hell you've been through, you'll rest peacefully in the arms of our Sacred Mother along with Stanley, John, Duane and my two sons, Danny and Allan.
      Just sayin'.     Your Brother George.

! DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANYTHING AWAY FROM THE SECRET SERVICE< BUT.....

   
                         WHAT DO THE WARRIORS IN AFGHANISTAN GET??
      I recently heard a Democratic Congressman remark on the disgusting  Secret Service Scandal; " I don't know what the Republicans are complaining about. These men are the strongest, bravest heroes who protect the President of the United states. They're ready at any moment to step in front of a bullet to save his life. A little R&R doesn't hurt a thing."
      I ask you, what on earth do you think the Warriors in Afghanistan do every day? Where they're asked to walk along roadside bombs and suicide bombers that may unsuspectingly be a 10 yr. old child or an old woman that would blow them apart any moment? And all this before they reach the true enemy that sent them with the promise of death to the rest of their family if they don't.
      When was the last time anyone saw a Secret Service Agent shot dead or wounded?
      Yes, protecting the President and his entourage is a special job. But are the soldiers in Afghanistan given breaks to vacation in plush resorts at the taxpayer's expense while they're on duty? Are they supplied with all the booze they can drink? Do they get hot tubs to soak in and their choice of 21 prostitutes to choose from? Do they get an expense account to charge their illegal purchases to?
      A resounding,"NO.!!!"
      Is there any reward for good, expected, everyday performance? Is their pay so good for their working hours that it's second to none? Another resounding "NO!!"
      The question here is though, Where is the GSA letting the blame flow to? The Secret Service warriors, of course. The guys who take orders to the letter without question from their sacred superiors. So why wouldn't they take offerings of reward for their deeds? You can bet that's the way the offerings were presented to them. Putting personal morals aside for the moment, why on earth would they turn an event like this down that they've been told they earned?
      I have no qualms with that except for one thing, What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Either offer it to all of the great volunteer military of this country and not to just a select few. Discrimination is a big word at this time in this politically volatile country and we don't need to demonstrate it in the Obama Regime, do we now?
      The investigation is far from over, but someone independently driven needs to shift the blame to where the shoe really fits and not let it lay at the bottom of the corruption pile to permeate and stink like Obama's gym sneakers. Place the blame where it belongs, and after that, the responsibility where it belongs as well. At the top of the manure pile.
      It's a shame that the natural thing to do is look at the videos of those front line agents loosening up once in a while just as us civilians did or do in our private lives. It's not a forgotten practice in America yet.
      But it does show a misplaced view of the Liberal Media who, in their politically driven attempt to get Obama re-elected, would keep the investigation at or near the bottom of the sneaker smell.
      If Barack Obama didn't know about all these unfortunate happenings, it doesn't absolve him of it. He is still ultimately responsible. He accepted responsibility the second he became the President of the United States. Blame is properly placed, responsibility is properly designated.
      Any good organization of any kind ever places blame without designating responsibility. No one knows this procedure better than the Socialist left and they execute it perfectly when someone from the opposition goes awry. They forget it only too quickly when it comes to their hypocritical selves.
      Barack Obama, although in his 4th year of his Presidency, is still getting drunk every day on power, and his drunken spending spree is a hell of a lot more expensive than just that one party.
      He doesn't seem to be concerned about his careless antics and the leaking of top secret information being leaked to other countries by way of loose lips and prostitutes.
      Hitler allowed lots of parties.          Just sayin'.

FOLLOW THE LEADER? HOW IMPORTANT IS HE? HOW SINCERE IS HE?

     
       No matter what the philosophy, what the belief, what the politics and what the religion, everyone follows the teachings and guidance of a Leader.
       The question is, how sincere is the Leader? How dedicated is he? What are the "true" intentions and the ultimate goal of the "Leader?" Is it to have you serve his intentions for "his" goals or yours?
       Or even for a more self serving thought, is the Leader merely a sociopathic, highly trained orator whose only selfish purpose is to achieve an ultimate dream of symbolic power in return for his talents as a Community Organizer. who is devoid of compassion and willing to tell you whatever it takes for you to follow his lead? And he leaves a baited trail of promised money if only you would follow him to his Eutopia.
      But the more you follow the trail of this Leader the more inconsistent he becomes, sometimes  in his life he's a Christian among Christians, a Muslim among Islamists and an Atheist among Atheists.
      His past life is crowded with conflicting memories from the past. He was, as "Barack Hussein Obama", born in Hawaii, Aug. 4th, 1961. In another life, he was born "Barry Soetoro", Aug. 4th in Kenya, 1961. This was information produced to the Indonesian and Pakistani Gov'ts proving his birthplace so he could obtain passports which he indeed received. It's believed he lied about his birthplace being in Kenya in order to obtain entry to Pakistan due to a "No Entry" status issued to U.S. citizens at the time. For whatever purpose, he lied about his past to achieve something.
      He was raised by white, Christian, Missionary Grandparents not in the U.S., but in Indonesia and raised a Muslim at the same time in a Muslim school. He claims to have converted to Christianity after he migrated to the U.S. around 1984. He started his Community Organizing career in "Midwest Academy" in Chicago and smack in the middle of the most corrupt city in U.S. politics today, an Atheist based college founded by an Atheist, Communist minded professor named Saul Alinsky.
      He has Surrounded himself with people who have practically all attended this Academy around the same time as him, including Hilary Rodham. Currently Hilary Rodham Clinton.
      He had no prior political Knowledge whatsoever before taking over Senator Ted Kennedy's vacant Senate seat.
      So do you think he's the mastermind behind all this "New Direction" he's taking us?  Not on your life!! As I mentioned in a previous blog, It's the "Well oiled, Marxist, Socialist Regime" that writes his speeches, programs his every move including his trips out of the country and creates his dialogue to the American people. He merely does what he excels at best. Reads the teleprompters.
      But along with the power of the Presidency, he has been placed in a position he never before imagined or dreamed of. I believe the "Well oiled Machine" that made it all possible may be starting to worry about the guy. One day he's a conservative, the same evening he's a liberal. Then he's on Air Force One on his way to China, North Korea and Russia to play the role of Communist. Next to Libya and Syria where he's back in his original true role of Muslim and an advocate of Sheriah Law.
     You tell me, is he Pro-American, Anti-American, Muslim, Christian, Socialist, Marxist/Atheist?
     Is he a Constitutional lawyer for the purpose of advocation or revocation of the U.S. Constitution? WELL!! What is he?
     Whatever he is, whether he gets re-elected or not, he's going to leave behind a divided nation of confused, deceived and broken people such as never before. You never know what this man is going to be tomorrow, but he's learning well from a "Well Oiled Machine" leader, Atheist Billionaire George Soros, considered to be the most powerful Anti-American in the world, who owns and operates several known ultra left wing media organizations such as Media Matters, the Huffington Post and left behind a string of Bankrupt, smaller countries in the world before he arrived here.   So again, What, and who, really is Barack Obama???     Just askin?

TODAY BEGINS THE HOLY EASTER WEEK. DON'T INSULT US BY HONORING IT IF YOU ARE AN ATHEIST.

      It's Easter, and If you are an Atheist, Keep your dissenting mouth shut and out of the mix! There's already an overwhelming number of us, that we don't need you, and personally, I don't care to have you around anyway at a time such as this. It's truly a Christian time to reflect back, to mourn Jesus' crucifixion and to honor his resurrection on the third day.
      Having said that, we'll all have our various celebrations on these Holy days, such as the week of Lent, Good Friday and then the main event of Easter Sunday! A day when families and groups get up early and arrange for the Easter egg hunts that will joyfully come to the children as they awake, have a healthy breakfast and on cue, gather at the starting line to find the hidden eggs. It's a beautiful time for all involved when it takes place. Especially to watch the toddlers who are involved for the first time. It's a real kick to say the least.
      Let's not forget the Religious ceremonies that take place throughout the day. I think it's safe to say that everyone goes to bed that night with peace of mind to one degree or another, but there will be undoubtedly, a feeling of peace to each and everyone, along with the gas that follows those who ate a lot of boiled eggs throughout the day. I wish to be excused from that bunch, as I should have learned my lesson by now.
      The memorable pictures that follow will be there to reflect back on in the future.
      What especially comes to mind is an Easter Sunday back in 1982 when I paid a visit to my Sister Joyce and brother-in-law Claire. I arrived at their house early that day since my wife was out of town visiting her relatives in Canada. Joyce was already up and Claire was still asleep, so she made the two of us some coffee and sat near a big bay window facing the back yard. There was a five foot solid board fence that separated the back yard of the house on the other side. Immediately on the other side was a fruit tree just coming into bloom.
      As we sat there looking towards the back yard, the father of the children came out and began placing colored Easter eggs around about in the branches of the tree. Then he retreated back into the house. With him no sooner gone, A large squirrel appeared along the top of the fence from a nearby tree. With easy access to the tree with the eggs, it handily jumped over and took an egg in it's mouth and danced back to the tree it came from and disappeared. Within seconds it reappeared and repeated the same process, with us laughing in the midst of it all. I guess it happened two or three times more, enough for us to be giggling in astonishment.
      Then out came the children anxiously looking for the eggs,finding what was left but with the Dad looking on in wonderment because he knew he had placed more eggs than the children found. With a quizzical look he disappeared into the house shaking his head and glancing back to see if he could possibly see some sort of thief. He didn't, and we didn't want to convict the very lovable little squirrel.
      Just sayin'.

CHINA"S FIRST OFFICIAL GOV'T. DECLARED ATHEISM AS IT'S COUNTRY'S BELIEF.

       In case anyone wonders why China so adamantly resists the introduction of modern day religion in it's claim to territorial dominance, it really never ever had one basic religion until Buddhism was introduced in the middle of the 1st century by central Asian traders from Korea, Mongolia, Tibet and Japan. Although still allowed in some provinces of China, it is severely disregarded and restricted. Hence the practice of Buddhist Monks burning themselves to death in protest continues on.
      At one time in past and Ancient history, there was one theory presented by Confucius referred to as Confucianism and another theory produced by Tao believers called Taoism. Those weren't beliefs in one God, but several of them. This occurred somewhere around 2500 years ago. The Holy men of the Gods were referred to as "Shamans." (Shenism)
      Christianity was introduced in the 7th century but was doomed to failure, again because of language variations among the masses. It was re-introduced again in the 16th century by Jesuit missionaries, but survived only marginally, and in 1949 was considered backward and abolished by the Totalitarian Regime.
      Because of hundreds of different dialects, the actual communicating of those varying beliefs was difficult to say the least, and still stands in the way of modern day communications. Only a small fraction of the 1.5 billion population is "retrofitted" with modern day beliefs as they presently exist, or for that matter, have the modern facilities to hear, see or read about them.
      You can thank the modern World for even that amount. So in order to maintain control of the masses, Chinese Rulers in control of China in 1949, established Totalitarianism by way of Atheism. They rule with Atheism as there guide today.
      Can you sense the familiarity of the true purpose of Atheism here in this country as it gets mixed in with the Marxist/Socialist beliefs of some of our Gov't sponsored Schools, Colleges and Universities in our United States?
      On Fox News this morning, they pointed out a recent survey of 400 teaching facilities and were astounded to find that Atheism is being slowly introduced into the system and advocated by the Adminstrations and staff. Along with the promotion of restrictions of freedom of speech if it doesn't agree with their philosophy, some students and Faculty members have already been prohibited from entering these facilities because of their conflicting religious and political beliefs.
      Wake up America. If they get their way, Totalitarianism is just around the corner if the current Administration gets re-elected. A wolf in sheep's clothing is poised to take over this country.
      The handwriting is already on the wall!      Just sayin'.

THE FREEDOM MOOCHERS>>>WHAT AND WHO ARE THEY? THEIR MOTTO, "I DON"T BELIEVE IN CONFRONTATION."

      Well, they're some of the everyday people you see on the street and if you weren't paying attention to detail, you'd miss them. But there's always some sort of little, identifiable oddity that lets them stand out. Even though they may appear to be homeless, they're not, and almost without exception, they claim to be believers of peace. The first thing they announce to you in conversation is, "I don't believe in confrontation." Thus the following expressions are usually of "Anti war." Conveniently forgetting they're standing on the graves of a million or so fallen warriors that made it possible for them to be as free speaking as they are.
      They aren't all dressed like bums of course, some may be lawyers,doctors, Indian Chiefs but seldom small businessmen. The difference is, you can't be a successful, independent small business operator without need for confrontation along the way. Consider it necessary self defense. It's part of life in a "free" Society such as ours. It comes with the territory, you might say.But most of the "Conscientious" Objectors can afford to take the non-confrontational attitude because of one thing; they're supported in one way or another by a  Gov't., be it city, Municipality, County, State or Federal. The people at the top of the chain through grants, loopholes in the tax system or subsidies. The people down the ladder a little ways are supported by the jobs that are in turn, paid for by grants and subsidies afforded them by again, the "Confrontational" Taxpayers in the private sector. The truly "productive" dollar folks, including of course, the productive workers needed to do what Gov't is expected to do.
      The group I criticize, as a whole are connected to a different philosophy. "Non productive Taxpayer dependence" in one way or another. Be it a grant to study the carpenter ants on the San Juans or someone who has learned to survive on the welfare system.
      The other thing they've learned to do is, although they find every reason to abuse and deny the Constitutional rights of others, such as the Marxist/Socialists do, demand the freedoms allowed every American by way of the Constitution itself. Flag burning, rioting, restricting religious freedom in Public schools, voter fraud, carrying "Peace" signs and draft dodging when it comes time to serve their country in a time of need.
      My point being, Freedom isn't free! Keeping it free sometimes requires "confrontation" with the perpetrator, whoever it may be.
      So, in order to have the best of both worlds, at no threat to themselves, they get away with it at the cost of the people who have fought and died to maintain it.
      However, instead of just not participating in the cost of the freedom we enjoy and staying silent as they should, they go a step further and interfere with the process that is required to defend our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.
      Does that make sense to you? Is this a time to "Remain silent if you have nothing good to say," as the Socialists so often say? Or should we, as a Silent Majority and earnest voter, turn the tables and apply it to them with whatever means it takes to Constitutionally shut them up?
      Is this a conundrum? Should we ask Barack Hussein Obama?
      "Freedom Moochers" for sure, if you ask me!!! Then again, who's asking me?    Just sayin'.

MY BROTHER, LORENCE "BUBS" McNAUGHTON

      As we get older, I think we all reflect on the past more. I know I do. The easiest thing to do, is to take my brothers and sisters for granted, forgetting that someday they're going to probably leave before us younger siblings of the family will. Up until now that has been the case with our oldest leaving first at the age of 76. The high Potentate of the family left us very swiftly. Stanley O. McNaughton smiled as he left us behind, sitting in his living room chair. A blood clot took him instantly. He left a great legacy behind him that few people in this country could match, a generous, giving one that our brother Duane framed so well to me;  "Santa Clause is gone."
      It was the most shocking loss, since it wasn't expected to happen the way it did, and we were not prepared at all for it to be in the form of a heart related event. No one up to that point had any sign of heart problems. But as life goes, it did.
     Then eight years later our next oldest brother John D., after a prolonged stay in a nursing home, fell and never recovered due to complications at the age of 83.
His life was the most adventurous, tumultous life of anyone in the family by far: At my age of 3, he walked me up the hill from our home to the bakery where he worked for the owner, George Yesavich and George let me eat all the pastries I wanted each time I went there!
      Years later in 1963, he introduced me to the underground mining business in Butte, Montana over 3 years! Another adventure worthy of remembering all my adult life!
Including allowing me to drive his car around the block at my age of 13.
     His exploits will be chronicled in my writings sometime in the near future.
     Next was our third oldest brother Duane Julius,(He didn't like his second name). Duane gave me my first guitar lessons and after watching me play awhile, gave it to me to have as my own. Then years later when I made a permanent move to Seattle from Fernie, B.C, Canada, He and his wife Angie allowed me to live with them until I found a home of my own.
     I play the guitar today, as a pleasant pastime! 
     Many years passed, and after a short stay in a nursing home, he passed away from natural causes at the age of 86. Another life well lived, and well appreciated by all who knew him.
     I miss them all, because of the way they treated me in my lifetime and the great memories they left all of us with, to treasure as we live on. ( I must say, All my brothers and sisters played crucial, memorable roles in my lifetime that I'm truly thankful for!)
     Our hearts are troubled now with the illness of everyone's favorite, Lorence "Bubs" McNaughton, the fourth eldest brother. Darn it! We don't want him to leave us yet.
     It's extremely difficult to rate my siblings because they've all been good and loving to me. But because I haven't seen enough of him in the last ten years, I haven't paid attention to him for all the kind, loving things he and his wife Connie did for me in the past. I simply took those things for granted. Now, with his life threatened, they all have come glaringly to light.
     At the age of five, I remember Bubs winning at marbles one day, and as he won, he gave them to me, until my little pants pockets were bulging full. I packed them around for part of the day as George Hrychuk and I played at something else.
      I must point out that our town of Fernie had a small airport and in those days planes landing there were few and far between. We're talking about 1941. So when an airplane did appear it was going to make a landing, all of us kids would run to beat the band for the airport to see it after it landed. Well, virtually all of the marbles bounced out of my pockets as I ran, but in the excitement of it all, I only found them missing after I got there. I was so disappointed, I cried all the way home.
     When I arrived home, Bubs was there to greet me and calmly asked me why I was crying. I sobbed that I had lost all my marbles. After telling me not to cry anymore, he said, "Lets go get you some more."      Away we went looking for another marble game in progress. We found one, and Bubs settled in to get me some more marbles.
     After a couple of hours, I had my pockets full again, and I was on my way to play with my friends.  I was a happy camper and the older kids Bubs' age were minus two pockets full of marbles.
    I'll always remember the time when I was around six years old, and Bubs was short of change for something. At the same time, someone, I think Bubs, had given me a nickel. Anyway,Bubs knew I had it  and asked me if he could borrow it for a short while. I think he needed the right change for something. He promised to pay it back, and sometime later he did. Well, a few weeks later I said to him, "Bubs, do you remember that nickel you used to owe me?" He said "Oh yeah," and responded with another nickel. To make a long story short, he let me work him another couple of times after that. He played the game with me.
      I especially love Bubs because he understood me as a child. He always seemed to know my feelings and inevitably defended me when it came time to "push and shove" with my other brothers.
      When I was seven and before I could swim, Bubs, Jack and Bob Duthie would coax me into jumping off the tower for a dime. After each time I jumped, they would grab me and push me over to the side of the pool so I could do it again. I had all the faith in the world they would not let me drown. Obviously they didn't.
      I pray to God that he gets better now, for his family's sake, for our family's sake, and selfishly for my sake. I know I speak for us all when I say this. We demand his presence for some more healthy years.
      I kinow he believes in God, and I'm positive God believes in him.     Just sayin'.

Update:
      God bless you so much, big Brother! We just received news of your failing state. I'm sad and I cried for you today, knowing very well the end has arrived for you.
      At my age of 77, You'd think I would have learned not to cry by now. but my memories are so vivid at this moment of heartbreak for you leaving us, although I know that Mom is up there making a bed for your everlasting passage.
     Farewell my beloved brother, but it's only for now, as I continue to try to earn my entry too! God love you as I do!!    Brother George.
Update;
R.I.P. and farewell Brother Bubs!!

 

NOW OUR OVERZEALOUS OBAMA IS THREATENING TO PUT THE SUPREME COURT ON TRIAL.

      The first thing this man did when he won the Presidency, was immediately elevate himself beyond reproach of any kind, select his "Midwest" Academy lieutenants to run American affairs, and board Air Force One and head over to Europe to take favor there by apologizing to the European World for all the Victorious deeds we did in the past. In doing so, he shamed every soldier who fought and died for the sake of this country and the rest of the free world since before WW1. Knowing this man's common sense is limited, he didn't do this on his own. The "Well oiled machine" is behind him, calling the shots.
      Is this guy for real? Does it not tell you what I've been suspicious of him attempting to do in desperation of his need to rule the World? I know it appeared to be me that was fantasizing about this man's intentions, but I wasn't. The fantasy is really his and I saw him for what he is! He accidentally displayed it 5 days ago in his "holding hands,will you marry me?" meeting with the President of Russia when he stated to him, " Wait until after the election and I'll have more flexibility." He was referring to the reduction of the U.S. Nuclear Arms defense system. He has no intention of asking Congress!
He's not going to take "No" for an answer anyway, no way, no how. And it's not just him! He has a well orchestrated group of people standing in the shadows behind him, beside him and in front of him who are truly in charge of what he's doing, with him merely being the outstanding Representative of it all. The professional Speaker and Community Organizer, with the promise of a World title.
       This is their big push, folks. If it doesn't work for them this time, their efforts will be buried for a long time ahead in the political future. It's their chance for the forced promotion  on Atheism/Marxism and they know it. They'll die for their cause.
      They're beginning to see the handwriting on the wall with the Supreme Court concerning the Obamacare mandate and it's very possible reversal of it, coming in June. This would be disastrous for them in the upcoming election. Thus the threat by Obama to place the Supreme Court on trial yesterday if they didn't approve Obamacare.!!
      I mentioned in a previous blog, my concern about the President resorting to a Declaration of Martial Law in order to suspend the powers of the Congress and the Supreme Court, using internal revolution and civil unrest in order to implement it. I hope you've noticed his condoning and actual promotion of "Occupy Wall St.", spurring on of Afro-American "New Black Panthers"and Union leaders to the point of, and including physical violence. His history of installing mandates and executive orders are already apparent and all point in exactly that direction. The hint of revolution and the start of civil unrest is definitely being sparked by him and his cronies right now.
      The "Well oiled machine" is shifting to a higher gear, friends. Being 75 years old, it doesn't concern me as much as it should you. The people of the present are intended to be the "sheeple" of the future.
      The wolves in sheep's clothing are out there. Some claim to be Christians, some to be Socialists and some to be Ministers of one faith or another. But I can tell you this, they all have one purpose in mind, and that's to prohibit the promotion of the Judeo/Christian faiths, while in their unrelenting march toward Marxism/Socialism. Nancy Pelosi, a strong opponent to prayer in schools, remarked yesterday she' s "a strong believer in prayer." A hipocrite at best.
      If they achieve their goal, the control of this country will exist only in the hands of a chosen few. Even the misled, innocent followers of their crap will be discarded like the rest of us once their votes are no longer needed.
      The bullying has already started and the election isn't until November 2012.
      There's going to be a display of voter fraud the likes of which you've never seen, or will ever see again. Mark my words.     Just sayin'.
