YOUR VOTE!  WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?

11/2/2014

0 Comments

In my humble opinion folks; it makes one hell of a difference! Consider this; it has been estimated that in the 2012 Presidential election, approximately 5 to 6 million registered conservative voters didn’t vote in an election that kept Obama in the White House for a second term by about 3 million votes! Do the math and then ask yourselves again; “what difference does it make?”  If just a little over 50% of those voters had bothered to vote, our country could be well on its way to recovery now, both economically and culturally, as opposed to sinking lower & lower into the already overcrowded community of third world countries on the planet! "The issue today is the same as it has been throughout all history, whether man shall be allowed to govern himself or be ruled by a small elite." ~ Thomas Jefferson

I’ve heard all the excuses as to why people don’t vote and quite frankly, that’s exactly what they are! Excuses! There is no valid reason for any responsible citizen in the greatest country in the world to forgo their Right (and responsibility) to vote! It is our civic duty to stay informed about what is going on in our country and let our voices be heard through the power of our vote! It signifies the true meaning of what Abraham Lincoln said at Gettysburg; “government of the people, by the people and for the people!” "This will be the best security for maintaining our liberties. A nation of well-informed men who have been taught to know and prize the rights which God had given them cannot be enslaved. It is in the religion of ignorance that tyranny begins." ~ Benjamin Franklin

In my opinion, the Obama Administration, along with their Liberal allies in Congress pose the most serious threat to our Rights and freedoms in this country to date! They are, however not the first!  For over a century now, the Liberal/Progressive groups have been slowly but surely working their way into positions of power in our government.

They lure their supporters and gain voters with the promise of “free benefits and entitlements supplied with governments funds (aka our hard earned tax dollars)!  They have created a class of voters who believe that it is the government’s job to provide them with their every need! The worst part of their scheme is that they are doing it with the tax dollars of hard working Americans like you and me!

Someone once said “a rose by any other name is still a rose!”  I say “Communism by any other name is still Communism!”  The root principle of Liberalism and Progressivism is the same as Communism!  That is the evil that we face!            

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” ~ Edmund Burke

"In democracy people get the government they deserve." ~ Alexis de Toqueville

Our vote is our voice and our power!  If we don’t use it; then NOTHING is exactly what we are doing!  What difference does it make?  It’s the difference between; a country with the freedom to live our lives as we choose, as opposed to a country where the government make those decisions for us!

"There is nothing more tragic than to sleep through a revolution." ~ Martin Luther King

I live in the Great State of Arizona and I am a registered voter with no party affiliation. I do not love the Republican Party but, I absolutely despise the Liberal Democrat Party!  So for this election for sure, I am holding my nose and voting a straight Republican ticket!

Folks, as I said before this problem has been building for over a century.  We can’t expect to fix it with one election!  It will take several election cycles to remove and replace the elected officials of both parties who are doing great harm to our country and the freedom we cherish!

 "It is the responsibility of the patriot to protect his country from its government.” ~ Thomas Paine

I believe and the polls indicate that Tuesday November 4th is the best chance we have had in decades to go to the polls and strike a blow against the tranny that has gripped our nation for a long, long time!  If you haven’t already, get there and vote and offer you neighbors a ride!  We need every conservative vote we can get!

A word from two of our most respected Founding Fathers:

"The people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it."
~ John Adams


"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson

The Adams way or the Jefferson way; the choice is yours America! Speak up and demand your Rights or lose them forever!

God Bless our Troops past and present and God Bless the United States of America!

BORDER CRISIS? WHAT BORDER?

8/24/2014

1 Comment

 
For months on end now we have been bombarded with headlines about the border crisis!  A crisis, certainly, but a border crisis; what border?  We no longer have a border!  If you have no border; essentially you have no country!  That’s the unfortunate and dangerous position the Obama administration, with the help of an inept clueless Congressional leadership has placed the American people in!

Our southern border in particular is being breached by people from all parts of the world!  All kinds of people coming at will and essentially unchallenged and unchecked; people with every disease imaginable, people with violent criminal backgrounds, ISIS and God only knows what other terrorist organizations!  We have plenty of problems of our own!  We don’t need and can’t tolerate the rest of the world sending their problems here!

Since taking office, the Obama administration has been telling us that our border is safer than it’s ever been; a total lie that has been perpetuated and reinforced by the Obama Free Press, aka the MSM, his personal propaganda machine! 

The truth is our border has been pretty much wide open to anyone who wants to come since Obama took office in 2009!  TSA admittedly allows people to fly without a valid ID!  Our border Patrol has been handcuffed and most recently converted to a babysitting service and  travel agency along with Home Land Security who furnishes food, lodging, medical care and transportation to any and all parts of our country at taxpayer expense!     

To make matters worse, Congress has done little, or next to nothing to stop or even slowdown the onslaught!  In fact, if the recently passed House bill gets approved by the Senate when they return form their most recent vacation; Obama will have millions more to spend for all the above mentioned activities!  All at taxpayer expense or maybe I should say millions more borrowed money for taxpayers to repay!

In my view and in my humble opinion; that makes them (Congress) accomplices in this immoral and highly illegal invasion of our country!  The exact opposite of what is required by their oath of office! 

Instead of starting impeachment proceedings, our fearless leader Speaker of the House John “Crybaby” Boehner has chosen enablement of the administrations illegal actions!  He tells us the Constitution has a remedy for the situation but he won’t use it!  A clear and unmistakable violation of his oath of office!  There is nothing else you can call it other than criminal behavior!  Any member of Congress who has sided with Boehner in the House and/or McConnell/Reid in the Senate is guilty of that same criminal behavior!

Since both won their primary’s with an overwhelming majority; apparently, the greater majority of the American voters in their districts still haven’t figured out that our two Republican leaders in Congress, Boehner and McConnell aren’t really on our team!  They along with the rest of the Republican establishment (RINOs All) get their marching orders from the big money lobbyist, funded by the global elites; the very same people who support the other side as well!  For them it’s just business as usual! The same Washington D.C. corruption we’ve had for decades!

What can we do?  The first thing we should do is get out and vote in November and make sure we regain control of the Senate and maintain control in the House!  The second thing we should do is make it abundantly clear that neither McConnell in the Senate not Boehner in the House will be acceptable as Majority leader of either!  We need real conservative leaders in those powerful positions if we are ever to regain control of our country!  Business as usual will not cut it any longer!

Any newly elected Senator or Representative should be forewarned that a vote for either McConnell as Majority Leader or Boehner as Speaker will result in a strong primary challenger in their next bid for reelection!  Let it be known that we expect them to do the job they are elected to do; which is the third thing on my list that we need to do!

Impeach, convict and remove Obama and his corrupt criminal administration from the people’s White House!  Once that has been taken care of; they need to clean up the traitors in their own backyard; the people like Harry Reid who has blocked every attempt to rein in the traitorous Obama administration and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law!  They are no less guilty as Obama himself!   That is the only way we will ever reverse the course of our country and get it back on the right track!

I truly do not believe this country can survive another two years of Obama!  He has defied Congress, the SCOTUS and the will of the majority of the American people!  As long as Dirty Harry is in charge in the Senate; he will continue to do so and it will only get worse!  He has put our country in the most vulnerable and dangerous position of any time in our history!  It has to be brought to an end!

We have an opportunity in November to accomplish all of the above if we go to the polls and vote!  We can do it legally and morally within the framework of our Constitution!  It’s the best way and it’s the way our Founders set forth when they established this great country! 

Otherwise, if none of the aforementioned events happen in the near future; I believe Obama will continue to destroy our country one Executive Order at a time and eventually someone somewhere will say enough is enough and  that my fellow Americans is when the SHTF. If you don’t know what that means then please pardon my French while I make myself perfectly clear!  SHFT is an acronym for when the “Shit Hits the Fan!”

I do not advocate violence and I hope with all my heart that it can be avoided, but if allowed to continue unchecked and unabated; the Obama administration is going to push way too far (martial law for example) and start a revolution in our country!  I’m talking about a real armed revolution that, comparatively speaking; will make the one in 1776 look like a Sunday afternoon church picnic!

I don’t want that and I’m sure the American people don’t want that; because it would bring unprecedented irreparable death and destruction to our country and make it even more vulnerable than it already is!  It’s the worst possible option and in the end we all lose; regardless of who claims victory!

Regardless of what side of the political aisle you are on; it doesn’t take a genius to figure out that this country is in serious trouble!  Tempers are on edge, our economy is in the tank; millions upon millions are unemployed, welfare, food stamps and disability rolls are at an all-time high, consumer prices continue to rise, year after year of record deficits and an astronomical National Debt in excess of 17 trillion dollars and mounting!

With ObamaCare our healthcare system is a shambles, CommonCore is teaching our young people to hate our country, our Veterans and our Military (our most deserving citizens) have been pushed to the back of the line behind welfare, food stamps, foreign aid and rolling out the Red Carpet for millions of illegal invaders, racial tensions have escalated to a level not seen since before WWII, our border is being invaded by millions of illegals including ISIS terrorists and the world is in total upheaval, especially the Middle East!

Wake America!  “W” left the White House in January, 2009 and Obama has been there for almost 6 years! It is now August, 2014, so, no, it’s not Bush’s fault!

I implore the American voters to set your beer aside, forget Monday night football, turn off your big screen TV, put down your remote, ignore the MSM and get involved in our country’s future!  Get educated and vote for the candidates who will work to restore our Constitutional government and return control to the people for whom it was intended!  That would be us, “we the people”.

Folks, we are sitting on a huge pile of explosive that can and will destroy our country and life as we know it if we allow it to be detonated!  It is imperative that we put our petty differences aside and work together to regain control of our country!  We can no longer expect someone else to do it!  We have to step up, speak up and elect real leaders who will put politics aside and work for the good of our country!  If we don’t; then God help us; because nobody else will!

A word from two of our most respected Founding Fathers:

"The people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it."
~ John Adams

WHY WE DISPLAY OUR FLAG UPSIDE DOWN!

7/13/2014

2 Comments

 
Picture
This is a call to all freedom loving Americans; regardless of party affiliation!  We don’t care if you are Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Independent or whatever!  If you value your freedom, your family, your future and our American way of life; we believe that now is the time to stand up and make your voice heard while we still have the freedom to do so! 

We are asking everyone who cares about our country and our American culture to stand and be counted!  We are asking that every one of us display an American Flag in “Distress Display”.  Do it on Twitter, on Face Book, on your home, your car or, wherever you like!  All of the above would be a very good option! 

Our initial goal is to get one million people to “Distress Display” a U.S. Flag in their twitter avi or header!  We believe coming together under the most sacred symbol our country has, is a good way to let people know that our country is under attack and needs us to speak out!

What is “Distress Display”?  Distress Display is displaying your U.S, Flag (Old Glory) “upside down”.  It is not disrespectful to our Flag, as some may think.  It complies with the rules of proper “Flag Etiquette” see them here: http://www.usflag.org/flagetiquette.html

It is a sign that our country is distressed and is under attack!  Why do we do it?  We do it to alert the American people that our country is, in fact, under attack! The really sad part is that we aren’t referring to an attack from foreign countries!  We are talking about an attack from within our own borders!  An attack by our own government! 

Believe it or not, like it or not; the Obama administration, its liberal allies in our U.S. Congress, its elite billionaire cronies and millions of their “nanny state” liberal supporters in this country are using every trick in the book to destroy our country!  They are destroying our Constitution, our economy, our freedom and our very own American culture!  Over the past six years in particular they have shown a total disregard for Our Constitution and the rule of law!

The most recent and most blatant and glaring example is Obama’s opening of our southern border to anyone who wants to come in!  Not only is he allowing them to come; he is assisting them and using the American taxpayer’s dollars to do it!  He has asked Congress for 3.7 Billion American $$$$ in his most recent attempt to put the final touches on his planned bankrupting of America!  If we don’t come together in an all-out effort and an outcry loud enough to stop them; I’m sure that the liberals and RINO’s in Congress will find a way to give Obama the funding he wants!  

Let us be clear!  We do not support, nor are we calling for an armed revolution!  We do believe however, the only way to stop this shameful, disgraceful and disgusting attack short of an armed revolution; is for the real red blooded American people to stand up and unite with a single voice and demand that our elected officials honor their oaths of office and do their Constitutional duty!

We believe we have arrived at one of the most crucial times in our country’s history!   What we need in our country is a return to the Reagan years!  Some referred to them as “Reagan Democrats” and other names. We need to wake up that group that he referred to as “the silent majority”. A group that included all freedom loving Americans!  Believe it or not we have many in both parties as well as Independents!

Many in that group either aren’t fully aware of the danger our freedom is in, or have been hesitant to speak out and let their voices be heard!  We have to wake them up and get them on board!  We have the numbers and the power to stop the outrage that is being committed against our country if everyone raises their voice in unity!

My brother Tom and I published our website www.oldgloryundersiege.com earlier this year in an effort to alert the American people to the peril that our country faces by using “Distress Display” in our twitter avi.  At first we thought we were alone in that effort, but over the last few months we have discovered that not to be the case.  We have found that many people are already using “Distress Display” in their twitter avi or twitter header!

At least one of those we now know has a website which is very similar in purpose and shares the same goal as we do!  You can find it here: http://www.distressedveteransofamerica.org/home.html

We urge you to visit it and heed its message!  In the spirit of unity, which is really what we are trying to promote with this blog article; we have joined forces and formed a partnership with our brother veterans Joe & Gene and their followers at their website above to further our mutual goal of getting one million “Distress Display Flags” on twitter!

We ask and hope that you will please consider our request and join us and spread the word to your followers as well!  It is a simple way and we believe an effective method to spread the word that America is under attack and we must respond with a unified voice! 

Our 1st Amendment and 2nd Amendments in particular; along with the other “Bill of Rights” have recently been under attack by the very government officials who took an oath to protect and defend them!  We cannot allow this attack to go unchallenged!  We believe that time is of the essence!  We need to speak up now and stop this criminal attack on our country while we still have the freedom to do so! 

A word from one of our most respected Founding Fathers:

"The people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it."
~ John Adams


The choice is your America!  Speak up and demand your Rights or lose them forever!

God Bless our Troops past and present and God Bless the United States of America!


Sincerely,

Dave Allen
