Things Worth Pondering

This is a most interesting discussion.  It is an assessment that lays out the landscape of the demise of leftist dominance of American culture, religious, media, entertainment, academic and political order.  Quote: "The bizarre presidential campaign of 2016 has another story sometimes hard to see:  the old Leftist Establishment is on its deathbed.  This does not mean that leftism is defeated, of course, but rather that the props that kept the small minority of Americans who are on the left able to control the agenda and the rhetoric of politics in America.  The long hegemony of leftism in those conveyor belts of news, knowledge, and entertainment required, first of all, that no one dare speak what was happening.  It required a conspiracy of silence by those afraid to speak the truth.   Those who told the truth were demonized and ostracized."   And, "The nature of the 28 pages pertaining to 9/11 can be inferred from this carefully worded sentence in the commission’s report: “We have found no evidence that the Saudi government as an institution or senior Saudi officials individually funded [al-Qaida]” (emphases added). Together, those five italicized words constitute a loophole large enough to fly a hijacked airliner through."    http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/03/the_slow_death_of_the_leftist_establishment.html

There might just be one honest congressman in Washington, DC.  Most of us will agree with his cogent observation.  Quote: "Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie has long taken stands for the people. Last week, Rep. Massie called for a roll-call vote on a billion-dollar foreign aid bill. Because of his demand, the people of America are able to see how their representatives voted on the bill. Without that demand, the bill would have been passed by the voices of only about twelve representatives. How is this representative government? It isn’t and Massie said if local politicians functioned in such a manner, they would find themselves in jail.  Congressman Massie was interviewed on the morning after the vote by Brian Thomas at KRC-Radio in Cincinnati, Ohio. He told Thomas that the money contained in that bill was nothing more than “a one billion dollars slush fund for the president.” In fact, Massie pointed out that four bill passed by voice votes on the very same day, which he didn’t even have an opportunity to read!"  http://eaglerising.com/32879/congressman-says-most-of-congress-is-so-corrupt-they-should-be-in-prison/   Again, we need a total housecleaning of government before we can turn this nation around.  The first step is to impose term limits on elected officials.  Voting on bills are actually so unimportant to our current crop of federal elected officials that rules (if not laws) are ignored in order to pass oppressive, wasteful, fraudulent and completely unnecessary bills that are unraveling/destroying our nation.

Here is a blatant example of what Congressman Massie is talking about.    http://hotair.com/archives/2016/04/27/democratic-pa-congressman-loses-primary-on-eve-of-his-corruption-trial/?

Here is an example of how low leftist/Democrats have fallen in their efforts to apply demagogic tactics to stifle free speech.  This is a truly amazing revelation of corruption.  It details how the political left colluded with the UN to initiate the human caused climate change scare and current attempts Democrats to criminalize free speech regarding climate change to protect their " their $1.5 trillion Climate Crisis Empire".  The problem is they have no leg to stand on.  Quote: "A self-appointed coalition of Democratic state attorneys general is pursuing civil or criminal racketeering actions against ExxonMobil, the Competitive Enterprise Institute and other organizations. The AGs claim the groups are committing fraud by “denying” climate change. The charge is bogus."  What is the basis for that charge?  "A 1995 document from the US State Department to the [UN] IPCC confirms this, or at least gives allegations of fraud and corruption sufficient credence to raise serious integrity questions.  When a recent FOIA lawsuit sought that 1995 document, the State Department said there is “no such correspondence in our files.” But if we have a copy of the document, how come State doesn’t? Attesting to its bona fides, our copy has State’s date-stamp, a Department official’s signature – and 30 pages of detailed instructions on how the Clinton Administration wanted the IPCC to change its scientific findings and summary for policymakers, to reflect U.S. climate and energy policy agendas. The document is too complex and technical to summarize. So we’ve posted it in PDF form – unchanged in any way and exactly as received from a well known and credible source who must remain anonymous to avoid retribution by people like the RICO prosecutors. You’ll be amazed at what it says." And who was Clinton's Vice President at the time?  Al Gore, champion of this fraudulent enterprise.  A final quote, "It is difficult not to perceive a pattern of collusion here, among the activists and their financiers, among the AGs, and perhaps among all of them. We are eager to see what emails and other documents might reveal – especially since Section 241of US Code Title 18 makes it a felony “for two or more persons to agree together to injure, threaten or intimidate” another person in exercising their constitutional rights.  We have only begun to fight – for energy, jobs, sound science, free speech and human rights. CEI and Exxon are vigorously battling the outrageous RICO suits, and CFACT will present its new Climate Hustle movie in a one-day May 2 extravaganza in hundreds of theaters across the USA. We will not be silenced."    http://townhall.com/columnists/pauldriessen/2016/04/16/rico-for-government-climate-deniers-n2149120/page/full

Think about this!  Does this seem to anyone to be good public policy.  Apparently Obama and his administration think so.  I bet well over 90% of average Americans disagree.  Quote: "Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)  Director Sarah Saldana provided written testimony to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Thursday that showed over 86,000 criminal aliens had been released back into the United States from fiscal year 2013 to 2015. "     http://cnsnews.com/news/article/melanie-hunter/chaffetz-ice-released-86000-criminal-aliens-2013-2015-196-convicted?   This tells me that Obama has absolutely no regard for our laws, police, court system, public safety or American citizens.  The more criminals out there the more chaos he can create as part of his plan to transform America.  Yet Congress does nothing to rein in this out of control tyrant.

Common Core is a blight on our children administered by our government.   Quote: "The word “common” in common core really means “lowest common denominator”. Essentially, Common Core is a form of socialism, Marxism or communism that brings everyone down to an equal level. George W. Bush let Senator Teddy Kennedy write the “No Child Left Behind” Act, which had too many stupid high-stake tests, too much social ideology and propaganda being injected, too little local teacher control and too much federal intervention. Common Core is all this on steroids: the ESSA Act (Every Student Succeeds Act) enshrines Common Core at the federal level, and retroactively legalizes all the illegal things the Federal Government did to get it through.  The bottom line is this: if you want your child to have your values, don’t throw him or her away to the State. Avoid Common Core all you can! Homeschool or find a private school that doesn’t do Common Core curriculum.  http://www.thesleuthjournal.com/common-core-surveillance-sexualization-children/

If you think this is acceptable behavior/free speech, then examine what free speech rights have already been denied Christians by leftist political correctness policing/tyranny.  If you are honest you will recognize in contrast how awful so many of the progressive leftist's policies really are.    https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/watch-satanists-face-off-against-pro-life-prayer-warriors-in-michigan?   Decency and morality no longer in the left's basket of policies.

This is truly government nonsense.  The Obama administration allows banks to buy their way out of jail.  No one goes to jail for crimes committed.  No accountability required if you have money.  Quote: "Goldman Sachs has evidently bought their way out of jail, as did the others, with a headline billion-dollar settlement for financial wrongdoing leading up to the 2008 financial crisis. Case closed, we are told."   http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/04/fining_the_banks.html   Where is justice when people are able to commit crimes but do not go to jail because they work for firms that buy their freedom with money garnered from the public?
