And so it begins...

Well its happened. Yes, Obama is our new president elect. It has not yet been 24 hours and so far the DOW has dropped 360 points (With Obama's plan to raise the capital gains tax investors will be cutting their gains/losses to avoid paying the government more money). The Russians are deploying missiles in the Baltic Sea (This is in response to the US deploying a missile shield to protect European nations from nuclear weapons). The Taliban is calling on Obama to pull out American troops from Aghanistan (I guess they really don't like that we allow women to leave the house. Or that we don't kill people because they don't care for Mohammed). And Israel has been attacked from the Gaza strip (terrorist groups will become more bold in attacking "infidels" because they know Obama will try and talk it out with them, rather than try to stop them).

No point in sitting around moping about it though. It's time to regroup, reposition, and reinvent. We have a chance to start anew and bring about the conservative ideals that will energize America and continue to propel her forward through history as the best, most free country that has ever existed on this planet.

Yesterday we took a step backwards. If you want freedom, individualism, liberty, and a nation that respects God then yesterday was not the brightest of days. But we must see that the next 4 years are not a time to sit back and complain. This is not a time to have a pity party. Rather we must see the next 4 years as an opportunity. It is an opportunity to organize and publicize and show America why 4 years from now they will have the chance to improve our system of government. In 4 years we will have a chance to get government out of the way of the American worker, to allow our economy to flourish. In 4 years we will have a chance to once again become a beacon of freedom to the oppressed. In 4 years we will have a chance to once again become a nation that values life above pleasure. So for the next 4 years lets get out there and show people that the best government is self government, and let's fight to keep the light of freedom shining in this world.

Let's embrace our new position as political outsiders, and in 4 years let's take back the reigns of government and steer our country in a new directions. A direction of individual freedom.

Liberals love of death

 

There are three reasons why we invaded Iraq:

    1. Every credible intelligence agency believed Saddam had weapons of mass destruction and Saddam had used WMDs in the past. UN inspection report raised concerns that he was hiding WMDs.

    2. Saddam had connections with Al Qaeda, supported and funded Al Qaeda operations and provided a safe haven for the terrorist organization.

    3. Every possible human right was denied to Iraqi citizens under Saddam, Saddam posed a threat of genocide to minorities.

    So if you do not support the invasion of Iraq than you must like the idea of a rogue regime with weapons capable of killing millions, the ability to export those weapons to terrorist organization who have a desire to use such weapons, and the killing and torturing of innocent civilians. Do the surrender democrats really support this? You would not think so, you would not like to think so, but their actions say yes.

    At any rate this should not be the debate now, whether we should or should not have invaded Iraq is a ridiculous debate, we might as well debate whether we should have started the war for American Independence. The debate is what to do now, we can all agree that things in Iraq are not going as well as they could be, does this mean we have to leave?     
    One of the largest differences between liberals and conservatives can be seen here. We are faced with adversity in Iraq and the first inclination of the democrats is to leave, to give up, to admit defeat. The conservatives wish to push through to gain victory. That is the aim, and should be the only aim, of war.

    Democrats ramble on asking why we didn’t have a “plan B” and why we aren’t leaving Iraq because things are not going exactly has planned. In war there is no “plan B” there is victory and there is defeat, nothing in between. We had no “plan B” in the Revolutionary war, we had no “plan B” in the civil war, we had no “plan B” in World War 2. There are only two options. Which option do you wish to support?

    We lost twice the amount of troops at Iwo Jima in one month than we have in Iraq. Yet the stupidest generation of Pelosi and Reid can’t handle it. They are not making a sacrifice, and they wish to undermine those who are. They put the lives of our troops at risk. That is not questioning their patriotism I’m sure they think they are very patriotic and they think they are doing the best for the country. It is simply stating fact. When Harry Reid says we lost war, that can be played over and over again by AQ propaganda.

    Osama bin Laden said when people see a strong horse and a weak horse the always go to the strong horse, a strong horse never says we lost the war.

    The American fighting men and women have always done and always will do what appears to be impossible. If the given the time the ask for and given the support they need, they will once again lead us to victory. Never has the American military met a mission it can’t accomplish, only recently has the stupidest generation forced failure upon them.

    The surge in Iraq is working, for some reason this scares the socks off the stupidest generation. I suppose they like genocide, want to see evil succeed, and don’t give a hoot for anyone but themselves. They are trying harder than ever to once again encourage mass killing in a faraway place. I leave you with these two quotes:

    "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature, and has no chance of being free unless made or kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." - John Stuart Mill

    "Courage and perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into air." - John Quincy Adams

The Pledge of a Generation

 
                                               The Pledge of Our Generation
    On September 11, 2001 we were exposed to evil.  We had been blissfully unaware of the danger, left unprotected by liberal policies. We will never forget that day, we will always remember the horror, we will always remember that on that day we came face to face with evil. 
    That realization has affected us for life, has given us the ability to see those who would do us harm, has shown us the consequences of appeasement and complacency. We will never become callous to the losses of that day.
    We understand that it is up to us to preserve this way of life, to preserve Western civilization on earth, to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. Our policy is to make war on those who wish our destruction, our aim is victory. We will fight whenever and wherever, we will never surrender.
    To those who want peace: the only guaranteed way to peace is surrender and in surrender you doom our children to take the last steps into 1000 years of darkness. While we may wish to have peace in our time we must have the courage to say to our enemies there is a price we will not pay there is a point beyond which they must not advance.
    We did not ask for this war but we will preserve this, the last best hope of man on earth. We will fight this war and we will emerge victorious. We understand that success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts. We understand that evil is powerless if the good are unafraid, but if the good do nothing than evil will succeed.
    We understand that in war there is no substitute for victory, and that we fight this war that our children may live in peace. And when we are down we will remember that courage and perseverance have a magical talisman before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into thin air. Praise be to the Lord our rock, who trains our hands for war and our fingers for battle. It is for these reasons that:

I do solemnly swear to preserve and protect the constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic. So help me God.

Jordan Dunn, James Madison, Winston Churchill, Ronald Reagan, Edmunde Burke, Douglas MacArthur, Aristotle, John Quincy Adams, King David.

Gun Control Stupidity

 

Gun Control Idiocracy makes Va Tech(and 32 students) its next victim.

As most of you have heard a terrible shooting happened at Virginia Tech University today, Monday April, 16, at the time of writing at least 33 people were killed and around 15 wounded. It is the deadliest shooting in US history. It is unclear who the shooter was or what his motivation was.

Let me start by sending my condolences to the families. My prayers are with the families and friends of those killed and wounded. This emphasizes that we are never as secure as we believe and it is only by God’s protection that we avoid as many incidents as we do. In an effort to prevent the next shooting we must ask ourselves what could have prevented this. Of course the gun control crowd will start screaming about the evil of guns and how they should be banned, but we know better.

The V. Tech campus was already a gun free zone, and yet somehow this shooter had a gun. Not only did he miraculously carry a gun into a gun free zone but he also managed to carry with him massive amounts of ammo. Not having guns on campus didn’t protect anyone; in fact it harmed about 50 innocent people. By removing the ability of innocent civilians to retaliate we cripple them. They must simply sit in their classroom and hope this evil man doesn’t open the door. Brilliant, that will stop the killing.

If only these people were allowed to protect themselves we would be looking at maybe 5 dead, maximum. 28 lives lost because of a policy that only disarms the innocent. After all the definition of a criminal is someone who does not obey the law, so what exactly makes someone believe that criminal will obey gun control laws. We entrust much more powerful weapons and our lives to 18 year olds, why can’t these people be allowed to defend themselves. An armed society is a polite society, and only when we allow ourselves to defend ourselves will these shootings stop.

May those affected come to know God’s peace and mercy.

Iran seizes British sailors and marines

As most of you know 8 British sailors and 7 British royal marines were seized today by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's  naval forces. Thier intent is unclear at this point, but our intent should not be.

As perhaps the greatest friend Britian has we must stand beside them through this situation, as for a solution to the situation well that seems quite clear to me.

Give the sailors back by the end of tomorrow or we'll come get them. And then 24 hours after that every Iranian military and government installation will cease to exist. The current Arab government will be destroyed and the Persians will be put in charge. And if Syria tries to enter the conflict they too will be handed over to the Persians for w/e retribution they want.

Of course lately the British have been becoming more and more Frenchy so this will either wake them up or just drive them further into submission to evil. It's gut check time Britian.

Connection between World Gov. and Christianity

This is a very short column I wrote in just a few minutes without any reseach or editing, so dont expect much.

World Gov. such has the UN has a negative effect on individual freedom and generally takes a negative view of Christianity. It is my belief that a world government’s main purpose would be to end war and since many in the world community believe the primary cause of war is religion they would most likely either try to abolish religion all together or combine all religions. Either way this is contrary to the view Christianity.

While it is true that Christianity usually prospers under prosecution this does not mean we should support the prosecution of Christianity. And we definitely need to do all we can to stop the combining of Christianity and other religions. This would cause many in the world to be misled and hinder the efforts of Christians to disciple the world.

Not only would a world government be a hindrance to Christianity it would also be extremely hostile to Israel. Currently the UN is allowed to investigate human rights violations in Israel, but none are done in Iran or Syria, because so many nation do not like Israel. Obviously any human rights violations committed by Israel would be one hundred times worse in countries such as Iran, but these countries are not investigated much less punished. The Bible says the Lord will bless those who bless Israel. The United States is one of the last friends Israel has and we need to stand with her against the attacks of world governments such as the UN.

Iraq IS another Vietnam

     It is absolutely sickening when I hear a liberal call Iraq another Vietnam. The next time you hear this you should ask the lib if he mean Iraq is another Vietnam because our military is completely annihilating the enemy or if Iraq is like Vietnam because the democrats are completely betraying us. Granted we haven't yet seen the levels of betrayal that we saw during the era of the worst generation, but with this new congress we may soon see such conditions.
    In Vietnam you cannot deny that the American military was winning the way. In the first half of the year over 100,000 communists were killed(nearly twice the amount lost by the Americans during the ENTIRE war). At the siege of Khe Sanh 15,000 communists were killed while 650 Americans were lost. During the Tet Offensive 45,000 of 85,000 Viet Cong were killed, and the VC were eliminated as a military threat. And yet the American people were told a lie, a lie that said we could not win. Even when we left Vietnam the South still could have won, in a sort of second Tet Offensive another 100,000 NVA were killed 25,000 ARVN, but because of the Democrat Congress 1.6-3.6 million were murdered in Vietnam, 2.6-3.8 million murdered in Cambodia, and 56,000-70,000 in Laos.
    When the anticommunist government took control of Cambodia and asked us to stop the NVA and VC from overrunning their country the Democrat Congress limited it to 1 operation 20 miles across the border and lasting for only 2 months. The first major betrayal by the Democrats to innocent people fighting for their lives. Nixon was severely attacked for this operation(this operation asked for by the Cambodians to save their lives). Every military engagement had strict constraints placed on it by Democrats(Congressional and Pres. Johnson) This was the second major betrayal by Democrats, this one against our own military, effectively increasing their casualty rates. After Americans pulled out of Vietnam and left the job to the ARVN the US had agreed to support the South if the North invaded(as they had agreed not to under the treaty signed in Paris). But when the North did invade the South in 1975 the Democrats refused to give any support(even knowing that war could have been won, the South was achieving a kill rate of 4 to 1). This was the third and final major betrayal leaving those in the South to be killed by the Communists. This also started the dominos as Cambodia, Laos, South Vietnam, some parts of Africa, Ethiopia Yemen, Afghanistan, Iran, Nicaragua, and El Salvador either fell to communism or were threatened by it. All this while Democrats (Carter and the Congress) stood by.
    In Iraq it looks like more of the same is happening, the Democrats have taken congress, and continue to put forth idiotic arguments, while the military wins the war. If they would like to say that the current Iraqi government is not going to work because the Iraqis are not civilized enough, and the muslim religion is too violent, then at least that would show intelligence. But to say we can't win the war(we can with an all out attack on the Islamo-fascists) and we need to pull out immediately shows no understanding of history and no regard for humanity. "Bring the troops home now" protesters have no respect for the troops, no respect for the Iraqis and no value for human life.

Announcing Column

I am now starting to use my blog, every now and then (once or twice a week) I will be posting a column written by me. I usually get bored during the daily grind and I usually begin thinking about one political or military issue or another. When I feel that I have developed a standing opinion during that thought process, and I would like to share it with the world I will be posting those thought here in the form of a column. So keep your eyes open and check back often.
