This is a posting of an article published, December 12, 2011, The London Sporting Times, by Nigel Smith
I had crossed "The Big Pond", and was doing an article on horse drawn carriage vehicles in Ocala, Florida, "Florida Carriage Museum", when I stopped at a quaint American eatery called "Mimis Cafe" on highway 200, at 4414 SW College Road, for some breakfast. And whom should I view? Lord Howard Hurts. I have written several articles about him for the Sporting Times, but it was a surprise to see him this early morning in his American setting.
As I approached his table he noticed me, and put his hand out in invitation to share breakfast space. We made the usual jokes about following each other around, but he seemed truly joyed at the prospect of having some idle talk with a fellow Britisher. He informed me quite readily that the breakfast here was top quality, but that the lunch was not to his liking as the place attracted a lot of parents with young children. Because he was nearly finished with his eggs and bacon, I asked him if he would allow me to do an impromptu interview for a "maybe to be published" article in the London Sporting Times. He agreed and here is that interview:
Nigel: I was in London a few months back, and ran into Richard Tinsdale, you know him, a manager at HWM, Walton On Thames, Surrey. And he related to me that you had been, recently, in city, and were looking to not only send over to the states a right hand drive Aston, V12 Vantage, but that you had turned your manor home, and all farm properties over to your eldest son, Rob.... That you were 100% American, for sure.
Lord Hurts: Yes. Yes. That is certain. I had briefly talked with Richard, and did in fact make arraignments for a silver, right hand drive, Vantage V12 to be shipped to Florida. And as for the other, I am certain that it was not a surprise to anyone that I have finally decided to remove all my connections to Jolly Old England. My son, Rob, being the typical, New Age Socialist, well deserves the estate, and maybe in time he will understand that Freedom comes at a price.....a personal price in fact. And for England to follow its current course to Marxism-Socialism is pure destruction of an entire civilization that at one time ruled the world. There is a distinct and measurable difference between Royals and Marxism, be it so little in actual practice though...... But that is the way of the world today. Speed, speed, speed. Things have to move fast or everyone is bored. In the "big picture", I believe, in the future, that we will return to our past agrarian ways as nothing really changes. And nothing can be either created or destroyed on Earth.
Nigel: And this is where I wanted to start. I have done a Google search and found that you have a web posting called freedomfiles.blogspot.com. I noted that there are over 170 postings, and most are themed, "American Patriotic". You really have taken to your American home. Would you elaborate?
Lord Hurts: Well. I have been an American citizen since the late 1960's, and unlike Lafayette (Gilbert du Motier, marquis de Lafayette. Hero of The American Revolution) , I came to America to live as an American. I see the immediate problems of the government, and unlike many of those born in America, I understand that Freedom is not something given, but it is something that is earned, and has to be defended at all times. I am an American Patriot, even though born in England.
Nigel: So you notice, and write about problems with American government that the "locals" can't view or understand?
Lord Hurts: Yes, this is true. Unlike the typical U.S. high school student.....and university students, also,.....I see that the slow creeping socialism from the early 60's has turned into a full blown problem that is going to turn American into a nation of slaves. The Americans have been in the "dole line" for so long that they don't even recognize it as either a dole or a line. And the depressing part is that the ones who see the coming crisis continue to do the same old, same old...... they vote for the best of the worst, and hope for a miracle. Pure rubbish.
Nigel: I have read in your posting that you believe that the coming elections of 2012, will produce no leader of substance. That this President Obama will win the elections.
Lord Hurts: This is true. Obama is the most overrated President in American history. His accomplishments before his election are not even demonstrable. He has no verifiable history. But the Republicans continue to follow and present recycled Democrats as candidates. The number of those on the dole continue to rise. Government workers retire on hugely inflated pensions, and the unions, who only make up 17% of the work force, destroy small business with their demands for higher pay. It is very difficult to find anyone in leadership who is guided by anything even resembling a "Moral Compass".
Nigel: What do you mean by "recycled Democrats"?
Lord Hurts: I mean that the leadership of the Republican party is as socialist inclined as the Democrats. You see, the flaw of the American system is "One Man. One Vote". If you remember, this was the call of the Mau Mau of Kenya in the 1950's. We in Britain have practical experience with this type of populous democracy, and anyone can see where it leads by just investigating Kenya today. For all it natural resources Kenya is a cesspool of corruption and human suffering. Things have not changed, one pence worth, since they "liberated" themselves from the Commonwealth. If Americans could or would read, they would read and study: Uhuru, by Robert Ruark, and maybe they would develop an understanding of the damage the socialist theory of "One Man. One Vote" presents to civilized society.
Nigel: Lord Hurts.....isn't this kind of talk...... racist?
Lord Hurts: The truth is the truth. It is time rational persons stop pretending that Disney World is a real destination of the future for mankind. Mankind is a balance act between Good and Evil. And survival of the species is primary to all evolution of civilization. Unless good people take charge, and understand that it is ludicrous for the masses of a society, to expect the producers of that same society, to work and invest so that the "Slugs" can lounge without expending blood, sweat, and tears......... civilization as we know it today, is over. America needs a Revolution Now! Or the great experiment in Human Freedom will be a mere footnote in the book of history.
Nigel: But Lord Hurts....is not your thoughts and writings both Imperial and racist? Would you have the poor of America inhabit packing boxes?
Lord Hurts: I am neither Imperial or racist. I understand reality. In America the poor have controlled the government for some 70 years, and the result of this is what we see, Socialism. Socialism is something that has not worked in England, and has not worked in any known nation on earth at anytime in history. To continue this failed experiment is pure Folly....and write it with a capital F. Go back and reread my postings. I don't get the impression that you understand the consequences, worldwide, should American crash and burn. I have to be moving on. I am working on a discovery I made about vitamins, and about how worthless they really are, and what a waste of money they present to Americans who believe that through vitamins good health comes.
Nigel: Well Lord Hurts, I do thank you for your time, and I will ask only one more question. I have heard talk about you getting into the vitamin business. So just what is your idea about vitamins? Are they a positive or are no aid to good health?
Lord Hurts: I will be writing about this subject shortly. I have logical proof that supplemental vitamins....I want to distinguish this fact......are of no value to the human body. That truly the only way to gain needed vitamins is through the eating of food. And this said, I will give evidence of something that is of most significant to good health. It is a tree from India; has been used for thousands of years; and its curative properties have been recently be verified....through modern testing; and it is still an unknown to "the world" of medicine. And just to pike your curious zone of enquiry, it is not the Neem tree of India. This lesser known tree is more significant, and could put many of the current drug companies out of business.
Nigel: Come on, give me a clue.
Lord Hurts: OK. Here is the clue.....Ayurveda. This is not the name of any tree or plant, but it is the name of a system of traditional Indian medicine. Remember. The only way pharmaceutical companies can make a huge profit is to take a natural product and synthesize it to receive a patent, and then charge excessive prices to customers to receive something that was inexpensive and natural from the start. I will be working on this very soon. Now, I thank you, and if you were finished eating, I would give you a fast ride in my Aston Martin Vantage that is out front, but as you are not, and I am in a hurry, Good Bye, and feel free to use any of my postings for whatever reason.
And thus Lord Hurts left the restaurant, leaving me with his bill. What a guy. I must say, I do find him interesting to say the least.
This is an answer to a posting response by Tina to article:
Holder and his DoJ – Equal Justice or votes?
December 14, 2011 | Filed underBreaking News,Politics-DC | Posted by SUAadmin; standupamericaus.org
Tina, the answer is leadership. Leaders lead, they don't follow, and they don't check polls for what the public thinks day in and day out. Leaders have a goal; project their goal; and proceed forward to accomplish their goal. Obama is a socialist and Congress is composed of persons who stay in power because they don't make a move until they have some poll to guide them. This is why they all need to be removed immediately....not in some election in the future.
The average U.S. taxpayer can't attend protests because they have to work to pay their bills, and pay the taxes that entitle the "Occupy Wall Street" Loafers to slow American commerce. I propose that sometime in March of 2012, there be a protest rally in Washington, D.C., that makes it possible for the workers of this nation, who pay for all the welfare and government waste, to get an opportunity to express their total dissatisfaction with both socialist Obama and the Congress. I further propose that this rally be called: "Remove Obama and Congress Now!" It would also be understood that should the "Revolution" be successful, every person who has proof of attendance would be entitled to a recovery fee of $2,000. This is the only way that working taxpayers can be on an even "keel" with the Moochers and Slugs. Remember two things: 1. A protest rally will make it impossible for the Democrats to "Stuff the Ballot Box", so that the entire nation can view the results of the Revolution, fairly. 2. Obama only needed to see 10,000 protesters in Egypt to demand that it's leader step down. Lets make it happen here, and see if Obama steps down.
It is time to stop playing by the rules of law as dictated by the Democrats. It is time to return to the true intent of the Constitution, and restore equal rights to the taxpayers of this nation, and let the Slugs slither their way along. Are we a nation of Men or Mice? It is time to throw some cheese on the ground and find out.

Is the Taliban our enemy? I think that this is a possibility, but why care? Jay Carney says that the reason the U.S. is in Afghanistan is: "Sept. 11, 2001. We are there now to ultimately defeat Al Qaeda, to stabilize Afghanistan and stabilize it in part so that Al Qaeda or other terrorists who have as their aim attacks on the United States cannot establish a foothold again in that country.”
This is all nonsense. It is not the job of the U.S., through the appropriations of citizen tax money, to give a "hoot" about international terrorism. Let the international part of the world take care of themselves. Let the U.S. set the example for other rational nations to follow. It is time for this nation of "Blind Sheep" to think about the reason that some persons, in political life, might have a need to "brand" Al Qaeda or the Taliban, National Enemy Number 1. Friedrich Nietzsche wrote: "Whoever lives for the sake of combating an enemy has an interest in the enemy's staying alive.” I could not say it better (what modesty). Seems that after a little thought, this might be the reason the politicians of this nation are so "enamored" with "Saving The World From Camel Drivers". I know. This depiction of the Al Qaeda and the Taliban sounds so racist, but in truth: How are they going to get from Afghanistan to America? I know. Remember 911. Everything revolves around 911, or so we are brainwashed to believe. Things happen once in a while. A blind squirrel finds an occasional acorn. Yawn, Yawn. What about the more than 40,000 persons killed in auto accidents in this country Every Year? Should we initiate a War On Auto Deaths? There are over 20,000 deaths from accidental medication overdoses or illegal drug overdoses each year. How about a War On Medications?
Please don't misunderstand the logic I am attempting to provide. 911 was a tragic incident. The criminals needed to be hunted down and demolished. The nation of their origin needed to feel the pain of "Don't Tread On Me", and "An Eye For An Eye", but a full force military undertaking in Afghanistan, a place of dirt, rocks, opium, donkeys, camels, misery, and a history of a civilization that is none of our business, regardless of how superior we feel about our Constitution, is Frankly, None Of Our Business. When will the political leaders of this Great Nation finally realize and practice: "To The Victor Go The Spoils"? When an enemy shows himself, hit him and hit him hard, and give deadly warning to the nation of sponsorship through bombing missions, but put no "Boots" on the ground unless we intend to make this enemy nation the next state in the union, and appropriate all resources of that nation to prosper America. When the nations of this world understand that we live by: "Don't Tread On Me", "An Eye For An Eye," and "To The Victor Go The Spoils," I believe that they will "wise up" and not bother America. I think this would be called: Keeping The Peace Through Strength, Si vis pacem, para bellum. Latin for: If you wish peace. Prepare for war. Maybe this should be on every U.S. dollar printed.

"The budget should be balanced; the treasury should be refilled; public debt should be reduced; and the arrogance of public officials should be controlled." This is why I am voting for Romney........no wait, Gingrich. Which of these Republican candidates voiced this truism? Neither, this is a quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero, 106 BC-43 BC, Roman politician and writer at the end of the great Roman Republic. The Roman Republic lasted 500 years, and "Crashed" for the same reasons that now Doom the great experiment in human Freedom and Knowledge, The United States of America.
Should anyone believe that the coming elections of 2012 will give birth to a renewal of moral and financial well being............ go back to watching the Kardashian wedding, and send your vote by mail....... Not to get off topic, but isn't it strange that the Democrats are so set against anyone having to present a photo ID before voting? The only logical reason for this is that having to prove one is a citizen and registered voter, would make it harder to cast illegal votes. I said, "make it harder".... not impossible. But we all know that Democrats only want to stop the racist discrimination on the poor by Republicans. Democrats are such Saints. And regardless if you vote for Romney or Gingrich, you will be voting for the complete destruction of this Republic. Read about the Roman Republic, and especially Cicero. Keep reading, this rant does get better.
Please don't be impressed by anything either of these "False Hopes", Romney, or Gingrich, say, because if anyone takes the time to check, it will be apparent that they voiced multiple conflicting statements at different times to different constituents. I know, I know, I am such a cynic; "These are good Americans doing their best to remove Obama, The Pretender, from office. The Republicans will get this Nation back on track and get Americans working again, and bring prestige to the U.S. dollar". Sure they will. Here is the problem with this scenario: The U.S. debt, National and Personal, is mathematically impossible to get to a place where the dollar is solvent........... even if the tax rate becomes 100% on all earnings and investments.
I checked the US Total Debt today, December 15, 2011, and here are the figures:
Total Debt per person: $180.280
Total Debt Per Family: $682,896
Personal Debt Per Citizen: $51,129
Savings Per Family: $4,845
Official Unemployed: 13,229,233
Actual Unemployed: 23,913,915
State/Local Employees: 15,620,133
Federal Employees: 4,323,424
US Retirees and SSI: 66,396,934
Surprised about these numbers? Remember: "Figures Don't Lie. Liars Figure". There is no reason to elect a new Congress and President. The show is over. We are once again being asked to elect the same "Harvard" types, who got us into this mess, to get us out, using methods and theories that remain the same. It is apparent that there is no actual difference between the Democrats and the Republicans, other than the spelling. So unless you are a complete moron, and believe that the Tooth Fairy is a canny investor, don't bother to send money to candidates, Democrat or Republican, and don't bother to vote. Spend your time being the ultimate consumer, using money you don't have, but credit you do have; Get on government give away programs, and get anything you can get; And last, but not least: Read everything you can about The French Revolution, and make plans to invest in, or start building, Guillotines. We will have a true Democracy at last. Bring on the cake.

What I like about the Perry Mason series by Erle Stanley Gardner is that Gardner, in his books, includes some common sense examples of the difference between the reality of actual, legislated, laws, and the necessity of sometimes circumventing these same legislated laws in order to defend one's self from prosecution and incarceration because some jury might be unable to distinguish between Truth and Creative Perjury. Fighting Fire with Fire, at times, is a most "truthful" defense. One example of this is provided by this excerpt from: The Case Of The Negligent Nymph, by Erle Stanly Gardner (1950).
Mason said, "It's a legal classic. The businessman sued the American for a large sum of money which he claimed he had loaned the American with which to start a business venture. The American went to a lawyer, complained bitterly, and wanted to go on the stand and swear that it was a complete falsehood.
"The attorney carefully listened to the American's story, smiled benignly, and said he would fix things up.
"Imagine the American's surprise when the case came up in the foreign court. The businessman got on the stand and swore that he had loaned the American this sum of money and then called five witnesses; two of them swore that they had seen the money loaned to the American, and three of them testified that the American had told them about having borrowed the money from this foreign businessman and hoped to be able to pay it back out of profits."
"What happened?" she asked, interested.
"The American's lawyer didn't even cross-examine the witness, and the American almost had a fit," Mason said.
"His lawyer explained to him that in this country it was rather easy to get witnesses to commit perjury for a reasonable consideration. The American saw ruination staring him in the face. Then it came his turn to put on his defense and his lawyer urbanely called seven witnesses, each of whom stated that he knew that the American had borrowed money from this businessman, but that he had been present in the room when the American had paid it back, every cent of it."
A wan smile twisted her lips. "And what's the moral of that story, Mr. Mason?"
"It isn't a moral, it's an "immoral"," Mason told her. "It means that there are times when you have to fight the devil with fire."
Now you will have to Think about this a little, but I believe that this fore mentioned quote from "The Case Of The Negligent Nymph" is a good example of the differences between religious Republicans, as opposed to Republican's in general, and Democrats. Religious Republicans tend to live in a "Fantasy World," dominated by the type of world Christians envision, rather than the world of actual reality about 75% of the time.
Democrats and Republicans, who are not religious, and who believe that "The End Justifies The Means", tend to live in "The Real World", as defined by the voting majority, 90% of the time. And in America, we are legislated to live in a world ruled by the majority, and this is what passes as "The Real World".
I feel that the previous paragraph exemplifies the reason that Christians are almost always on the "losing side" in encounters in "The Real World". It is human nature to live life always doing for the individual what is easiest, rather than taking, and accepting, individual responsibility for individual actions because individual actions sometimes have, as a result, unintended consequences that are not the price one necessarily wants to "pay" for some "bad", personal, behavior. And when anything is put to a vote, in government, the majority will always take the "easy path" towards governance, and "punishment". But thank goodness for Christian Republicans, because in what kind of "Dark World" would we live, were it not for these tireless disciples?
I hope that this posting has given the Religious Republican minority something to Think about. And if you need more prompting, be aware that in the coming elections of 2012, the bad guys will win the majority of the vote. Just knowing that you are right is not enough. When Jesus confronted the money changers in the Temple...... did he call the police or demand a court imposed interpretation of the law?; No. He took charge and control, and stopped the corrupt practices himself. Do you see a method, in this abovementioned example, that might be used to correct the abuses of our American government? I truly believe that if we wait until the elections of 2012, rather than take action now, this Great Republic will be lost to the pages of history. Sometimes you really do have to fight the devil with fire.

Arnold Joseph Toynbee CH (April 14, 1889 - October 22, 1975) was a British historian:
"History teaches us that when a barbarian race confronts a sleeping culture, the barbarian always wins."
If this statement is true, and it seems to pass the creditability test, then just what factors determine its validity?
Barbarians come from older cultures. Cultures that have little outside influence. They tend to be cultures that are severely "inbred". Being "inbred", they tend to be able to focus more intently on issues of survival rather than on issues of individual determination. And with their limited view of the world, and their ability to focus on only one or two basic ideals, they perceive anyone who is not of their "mindset" to be an enemy........ and enemy's are to killed. Their culture is devoid of the concept: Conquer and Reform. Their idea of future is to depose of anyone who thinks in a manner opposed to their way of life, and social structure. This is something that can be verified by stories found in the Old Testament of the Bible. The victors slaughtered all the enemy; men, women, and children. And after they eliminated the "enemy", they then destroyed all vestiges of the former culture, and proceeded to build new monuments, dedicated to their culture, on top of the previous civic and religious buildings.
Sleeping cultures tend to be parasitic in nature, feeding on the strength of the strongest of their particular population. The division between Good and Evil tends to blend, and the meaning of words becomes ambiguous at best. In time, confusion arises because the Rules of Civilization tend to have no discernable meaning because nobody can clearly define anything. Chaos reigns, making it easier for the enemy to Divide and Conquer the semi cohesive national culture. When you divide any job into smaller parts it takes fewer "workers" to accomplish any designated goal. Example: If one takes a Grand Piano apart, suddenly, one man can then carry it, by himself, to the top floor, of a 5 story walk-up, without so much as breathing hard (leverage).
America is at this stage of self inflicted decay. Two of our most telling clues are: Our inability to legislate a National Language; And our failure to close our borders to only persons chosen by education and testing to be worthy of citizenship. Chaos, now reigns, and the end is near. The answer to this dilemma is as easy as the Gordian Knot was for Alexander the Great. But unless an "Alexander the Great" steps forward, the "knot" will continue to confound us.

Treason by any other name is still Treason. Another election will not right all that has passed as Education in this "Nation Of Blind Sheep". Social entitlements are nothing but Bribes, cloaked in the diaphanous, liberal, interpretations of the Constitution. There is only one way to stop the corruption that prevails all order of American government, and that way is Revolution.
Do you know about the history of the Phoenix? Is it all fantasy? The Phoenix story is found in most all ancient civilizations, the world over. The short story is that every 500 or so years the Phoenix bird builds a nest, and through self combustion dies. And then, from the ashes, is born a new Phoenix. The Phoenix represents death, rebirth, immortality, and renewal. Is America experiencing this phenomena? Let me see, 1492 (discovery of America) plus 500 years (life of the Phoenix) equals 1992. You decide if this is a call to Revolution. And should this "history" of the Phoenix help persuade you, stop waiting for the elections of 2012 to give rebirth to this "dead" Nation.

"Trump also warns that he could launch an independent bid for the presidency should the GOP pick someone he thinks will not win."
"A lot of people agree with me and find it amazing," Trump said of the eligibility controversy. "It's miraculous how this birth certificate just appeared."
(Posted: December 05, 2011, 8:35 pm Eastern, By Bob Unruh, © 2011 WND).
Donald Trump gives the impression that he is a real Patriot, but my doubts are founded in his past. Seems that he has said and done this all before (mentioning in August of 2011, that he might re-enter as a third party candidate). And if my memory doesn't belie me, Donald Trump was a lifelong, registered, Democrat, even thought he seldom took the "time" to actually "mark" a ballot. No. My suspicion is that Trump is acting as a "Cat's Paw" for Hillary Clinton. Hillary knows that should she challenge Obama in a Democratic primary, the black vote will be offended, and not support her (they will stay home on election day). Trump, by bringing up Obama's birth certificate flaws, again, and the legality of him being a Natural Born Citizen, might just cause the Democratic planners and George Soros, to go to their "back up" Marxist, Hillary Clinton, without fear of causing a "black backlash". And I assure the reader that in a Presidential election between Hillary Clinton, and any of the current Republican "pretenders", Hillary will win by a landslide. So it is my expressed opinion, that to further the possibility, for a real Republican contender to "rise" to a position of believability, Donald Trump must be STOPPED from monitoring any Republican debates. Donald Trump is not to be trusted. And the Republican candidates have made fools of themselves already without further being "helped" by this "Trojan" with bad hair.

Dear Howard, The General is referring to Iran as the Chess Master in the ME. They move, everyone else reacts."
You are so correct. I posted off topic, slightly, but my "Rant" is true, and my vision of how to handle all other Sovereign Countries is to live and let live. Always remember this German proverb: "Fear makes the wolf bigger than he is."
It is our duty to set the example for the world and not to enforce our specific meaning of Freedom on any persons. Stop all Foreign Aid, and let the world socialist have to figure out how to feed their starving population without American Aid, and you will see a much more informed and determined world. Much the same with our misguided programs to fight poverty here in America. Is it really possible that 46 million Americans are on Food Stamps because they don't have enough money from their job to feed their families? Bunk. Just more "Making The Wolf Bigger". If America has a leader who understands this concept, then the silly airport screenings would stop immediately. Remember the scary threat posed by Osama bin Laden? All these years of fear from a man that was "larger than John Wayne", according to our corrupt government, and the "lapdog" media? A reckless billionaire, who lead an intelligent terrorist group that had the ability to destroy America. Then, a few years later, we see the photos of an old, gray haired, man, watching a relic of a TV procured from some remodeled Motel 8, sitting in a Snuggy, watching HSN, looking for some Wolfgang Puck cookware, in a rundown house in some rural camel town in Pakistan.....and then the "puffed", President Obama, stories of Osama making a run for his weapons, and the Delta team having to shoot him in the back. Come on. Wake Up! It is all a created fantasy. Politicians the world over have to create a "Bigger Wolf" to keep the citizens in line. And to be specific about Iran: Iran is just another bluff. Think about all the countries that currently have neclear weapons. Are they all stable? Is it possible to prevent one of these already neclear nations from "giving" weapons to others? Of course not. Force Iran to take care of the needs of its own population, and it will be apparent that they will not have enough money left to invest in advanced weapons programs. Divide and Conquer.
What would Lord Howard, do if you were elected President?
First I would stop all Foreign Aid and let these world socialist figure out how to feed their starving populations themselves. Just this move alone would start revolutions in these socialist countries that would not need anything more than American material aid. Within a few years I am sure you would have a more informed and determined world. Much the same with our misguided programs to fight poverty. Is it really possible that 46 million Americans are on Food Stamps because they don't have enough money from their job to feed their families? Bunk. Just more "Making The Wolf Bigger". Want to inform yourself on what is really "killing" America and our Constitution? Check out this youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bavou_SEj1E and begin to think about placing more focus on what is happening in our nation, and let others, who desire Freedom, fight for it themselves. As example: Cuba. Want to create a revolution for Freedom in Cuba without having to use taxpayer money or put our military at risk? Open the doors to free movement into Cuba. Let Americans travel to Cuba, send money to Cuba, and invest in Cuba. How would this oppressive (Cuba) socialist government stop its own people from joining in the world economy should this policy take place? Remember, it is not our job to tell anyone on this planet how to live. It is our duty to take care of OURSELVES, and set the example for others to follow should they desire Freedom. We don't need a "Bigger Wolf", we need a more informed public.

"The Chessboard is set and the pieces are being moved deftly! It is time to change leadership in the USA to restore America and our Constitution!", Paul E. Vallely (Paul E. Vallely is a retired Major General in the US Army, and is the founder and CEO of Stand Up America.).
General Vallely, I must disagree with your observation that the "Chessboard is set and the pieces are being moved deftly!". There is no "Chessboard". What you perceive to be a "Chessboard" is nothing more than competing political factors muddling around in the chaos that they themselves have created. At this time there is nobody "deftly" moving the "pieces". This nation is at a tipping point that will either forge a more dedicated and strong Republic, based on the true intent of the Founders and our Constitution, or this nation will slide into the chaos of Democracy, and become another failed experiment in Human Freedom. The American education system has for too long expounded on the merits of Democracy, and all the while never making the case that Democracy is nothing more than lawlessness. To believe, at this point, in our history, that all can be rehabilitated by the election of some professional politician of the Republican persuasion is nothing less than insanity. The electorate has no understanding of its responsibility, and this is completely due to the fact that this nation has let the education of its citizens be run, and corrupted, by persons who not only do not understand individual responsibility, but by their very own nature are parasites who want guaranteed rewards for their misguided work. To even look at the lineup of the 2012 Republican contenders makes me sick. This nation needs a leader who is not looking for a job. We need someone who will place the Constitution as the "Rule Of The Land", and let the citizens make their own future rather than to rely on the Federal Government for ideas, food, shelter, warmth, retirement, education, or any promises that life is easy or without any personal pain. All citizens must understand that for every positive there is an equal and corresponding negative. Life on earth is a struggle for survival and there is no "free lunch". It is time to move forward, before the elections of 2012, and DARE TO BE GREAT.
Remember the words of Tucydides, the father of the school of political realism, which views the relations between nations as based on Might rather than Right: "The Secret of Happiness is Freedom. The Secret of Freedom is Courage". It is time for the citizens of this nation to remove President Obama, all persons in Congress, The Supreme Court, and any others who are conspiring to subvert the Constitution, and to create economic chaos with the result of inflation to our currency. This "End" can not be accomplished by means of an election in 2012. It is time to "Remember The American Revolution", and all that it stood for.
