But he had all that going into the global warming debate against Kerry and he lost - by out-and-out&amp;nbsp;forfeit.&amp;nbsp; Fool&amp;nbsp;me once, shame on you; twice, shame on me: are we willing to&amp;nbsp;risk the future of American freedom and survivability on&amp;nbsp;the chance that debate&amp;nbsp;history won't repeat itself (as it generally does&lt;/strong&gt;)?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;It's clear that on &lt;em&gt;eg&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;big government, guns, bailouts, environmental tyranny, and health care mandates he's diametrically opposed to America's crucial&amp;nbsp;interests.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;His moral behavior, from Fannie Mae to familial faithlessness, should, in and of itself, cause any Christian leader to back off. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;The only plausible (though clearly not worthy)&amp;nbsp;excuse for such an endorsement would be the "he's electable (and not as far left as Romney)" rational.&amp;nbsp; But that's not in play here, since Rick Santorum, whose evident consevative and Christian credentials are far more credible than Gingrich's, is in the race.&amp;nbsp; In the two states in play so far, Santorum won Iowa and outpolled Newt in New Hampshire (and he even led Newt in South Carolina till these charlatans started lavushinging spurious endorsements on Gingrich).&amp;nbsp; So electability doesn't give Gingrich a leg up here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Even my original choice, Michele Bahmann, is drawing my contempt in this regard.&amp;nbsp; She supposedly is mulling whom to endorse, but has announced she won't name anyone till after SC.&amp;nbsp; This reticence favors Newt heavily, in that it implies she's considering someone besides the obvious Santorum; that someone couldn't be Paul, who's savaged her for her Christianity, or Romney,&amp;nbsp;whom she's consistently battered. So the mystery candidate under consideration is obviously Gingrich.&amp;nbsp; Even if she comes out for Santorum, post-SC reality&amp;nbsp;will most likely make it too late.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;The morning after:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Newt Gingrich's attacks on Romney's&amp;nbsp;Bain Capitol connections - from a thoroughly marxist perspective - inexorably&amp;nbsp;defines him as being &lt;em&gt;to the left of Mitt&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;nbsp; If you accept the obvious fact, then, that Romney is a socialist (which he most definitely is), then Newt must then be an &lt;em&gt;ultra-socialist&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; (as are, in effect, all the useful idiots in SC who voted for him).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;A nominee Newt will not try to defeat his ideological identical (Obama), anymore than RINO McCain tried - or &lt;strong&gt;anymore than he himself&amp;nbsp;tried to defeat John Kerry in a man-made global warming "debate" where, instead of accpeting Lurch's head on a platter, he conceded in his opening remarks, then went on tour with Pelosi and company&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;promoting the hoax.&amp;nbsp; He'll be there just to ensure that no genuine candidate (one that would try to win) can occupy the ticket.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;This is the harvest that we here in Greenville County, SC have reaped for unseating County GOP&amp;nbsp;chairman Samuel Harms who'd provided for free a half mill in legal services trying to abolish open primaries (an unseating after which I publicly divorced myself from the party).&amp;nbsp; As a result of the party's dropping of the given suit, once again it was&amp;nbsp;the Dems (who had no other primary to vote in - the GOP affair was the only game in town) who&amp;nbsp;chose the Republican nominee.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Naturally, they picked the one with absolutely no chance of defeating the sitting&amp;nbsp;dictator - the one with all the infidelity baggage, the support of the individual mandate and global warming hysteria, &lt;em&gt;etc&lt;/em&gt; and the &lt;strong&gt;history of conceding in debates where all the facts - plus his superior intellect&lt;/strong&gt; - are on his side.&amp;nbsp; Democrats, you see, unlike the government indoctrination center-trained Republicans who disgraced themselves yesterday, are not idiots. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I aplogize to America on behalf of my county and urge everyone to work diligently to get Pastor Wiley Drake, Dr Laurie Roth, or whomever America's Party (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="about:blank"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;http://aipnews.com/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;)&amp;nbsp;endorses on the ballot in as many states as possible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Caveat&lt;/em&gt;: no matter how large your state, do not circulate petitiions (empty or filled out)&amp;nbsp;by mail, as USPS "lost" dozens of shipments of mine with who knows&amp;nbsp;how many&amp;nbsp;signatures&amp;nbsp;in '08 when I tried to get the party - and Alan Keyes -&amp;nbsp;on the SC ballot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;PS: Personal to Ron Paul: seeing as how you, prior to this fiasco of an election,&amp;nbsp;tried to prevail upon Rick&amp;nbsp;Santorum to withdraw and transfer his support to you, now that Santorum outpolled&amp;nbsp;you (17%-13%), shouldn't you practice what you preach and step aside for &lt;em&gt;him&lt;/em&gt;?&amp;nbsp;

refusal, in the most recent debate (in Iowa) to credit Justices&amp;nbsp;Thomas, Scalia, &lt;em&gt;et al&lt;/em&gt; with any moral or Constitutional superiority to Kagen, Sotomaior, Ginsberg, and Breyer (&lt;strong&gt;his "they're all good and they're all bad" reply&amp;nbsp;makes Kerry's "I voted for the bill before I voted against it" seem forthright by comparison&lt;/strong&gt;).&amp;nbsp; This may be the most significant tidbit yet on Paul.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Quite a few&amp;nbsp;ot&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;hers have described&amp;nbsp;a phenomenon I've encountered in my dealings with Paulistas (and in my observations of the curmudgeon himself):&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;If you don't march in lockstep with their views (to include military&amp;nbsp;gay pride parades, "In God We Trust" off the money, "America got what she deserved on 9/11," legalized heroin and prostitution, &lt;em&gt;ad nauseum&lt;/em&gt;), you're a brainwashed&amp;nbsp;neocon propagandist.&amp;nbsp; Hence his recent smears of Bachmann&amp;nbsp;and Santorum on Leno.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;But you must notice that such a monolithic&amp;nbsp;demand doesn't hold when it comes to leftists&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; The SCOTUS response, for instance, actually elevates the&amp;nbsp;Stalinist wing at the same time it demeans the originalists.&amp;nbsp; On Leno, while he lambasted the only two conservatives in the race, he had nothing malignant to spew on Romney, Gingrich, or Perry, and he actually praised lefty Huntsman, an Obama appointee with far more in common with "that one" than with the two Paul skewered.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;And Paul had no problem endorsing the presidential candidacies of far, far leftists Ralph Nader and Sheila Jackson-Lee in '08.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Or lavishing accolades on collectivists like Dennis Kucinich and&amp;nbsp;Chuck Hagel and co-sponsoring, with Barney Frank,&amp;nbsp;a bill legalizing Intenet porn.&amp;nbsp; Meanwhile, an ex-COS for one of the few congressmen I've trusted on the Hill has long&amp;nbsp;informed that if you've got a proposal&amp;nbsp;that just might somehow&amp;nbsp;bear fruit and would like&amp;nbsp;Paul's support, you'd best not bother to apply if you're on the right.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Paul leads Iowa, a few days before the caucuses there, as of this writing, and he and Mitt Romney officially have Virginia to themselves, due to a bizarre new rule there.&amp;nbsp; His chances of winning the nomination (at which point the Obamites will beat him into the ground with his past marginally racist statements - along with his seemingly choreographed walk-off on CNN to avoid discussing them)&amp;nbsp;are frighteningly real.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Many years ago, I heard a street evangelist affirm that homosexuals constitute the one class of sinner a member of which he's never seen repent; he didn't think one ever could.&amp;nbsp; The intervening years have&amp;nbsp;disproven that conjecture, and my Save America Summit actually had a redeemed ex-gay serving ably.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The black hole, on the other hand, of Paulism appears to permit neither light nor adherents to escape.&amp;nbsp; Once initiated, one can no longer maintain ties to one's former Judeo-Christian-based principle set.&amp;nbsp; One embraces, in its place, a jealous god in the form of an America-demeaning, hybrid agenda, from&amp;nbsp;the leftist component of which no deviation is allowed, while, for Marxists from Kagen to Kucinich, the rightist elements are fair game.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Ron Paul, a hard leftist out trolling for conservative souls.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Heaven help us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5547289071277617673-942122269072513731?l=lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/feeds/942122269072513731/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/12/paulista-for-life.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/942122269072513731'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/942122269072513731'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/12/paulista-for-life.html' title='Paulista for Life'/><author><name>crlewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16384656874109737175</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547289071277617673.post-412071085668724884</id><published>2011-11-09T09:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-09T09:23:51.977-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eminent domain'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kasich'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='election'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='unions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='barber'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Elections'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='plebiscite'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='personhood'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='socialized medicine'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='initiative'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='referendum'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mississippi'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obamacare'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ohio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='abortion'/><title type='text'>US votes itself into perdition</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;by Charles Lewis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;November 8, 2011.&amp;nbsp;

The outcome will amount to nothing in the face of any unfavorable upcoming SCOTUS decision on the matter, but it does send a message.&amp;nbsp; I hope that similar measures appear on the touch screens of the thirty-five or so more conservative states in '12, that election fraud doesn't dampen the counts, and that the victorious party nationwide will be faced with an enormous mandate to cut the horrrendous program off at the knees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;And in Mississippi voters had the judgment to see through the lobbying of outgoing establishment RINO&amp;nbsp;Governor Haley Barber and prohibited him from taking private land and bestowing it upon megacorps who'd pay higher taxes.&amp;nbsp; Kudos.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Now the bad news:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Mississippi voters (we're told) have contradicted what is now well established scientific fact, spat in the face of the clearly espressed will of God, and arbitrarily sentenced (in the long run) millions of innocent pre-borns to hideous execution, in rejecting an initiative that would have officially designated babies in the womb as what they are - people.&amp;nbsp; "Ole Miss" is the only state where such a topic has come within the reach of the electorate, and possibly the only one traditionalist enough that it could.&amp;nbsp; According to the report of the vote-counting cybersystem, the voters said no.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;And&amp;nbsp;back&amp;nbsp;in Ohio, the voters are said to have, in effect, pronounced the death knell for&amp;nbsp;public sector employment and foisted on the rest of us a second, Greece-like, California, when they defeated an appeal to bring government workers (who make about twice as much - in both salary and benefits - as their free enterprise-employed counterparts, and, famously, do little or no positive, productive work) a step or two closer to the real world.&amp;nbsp; A rejected ballot item would have ended, to an extent, the ludicrously conflicted-interest practice (even according to socialist prez FDR, BTW) of&amp;nbsp;obligatory unionism (strikes and all)&amp;nbsp;among that group.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Republican Governor John Kasich has been placed in an impossible catch-22.&amp;nbsp; He does not have the funds - under the Obamaconomy - to provide essential services, and&amp;nbsp;is now denied even the distant&amp;nbsp;prospect of narrowing the outrageously out-of-skew compensation gap between government and real workers.&amp;nbsp; That a hard working laborer in the capitalist world would vote to keep someone, employed in an identical capacity (though, doubtless, doing far less actual work, and, likely, plenty of harm)&amp;nbsp;by Big Brother, earning twice as much money and bagging&amp;nbsp;astronomically higher perks than the voter himself is testimony to the effectiveness of a mainstream media mendacious beyond belief, along with the world's worst (and&amp;nbsp;conceivably its most nefarious) "school" system.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;This will plunge a dagger into that state's&amp;nbsp;private sector's ability to compete for talent with the leviathan.&amp;nbsp; Government will have to grow (and confiscate profits)&amp;nbsp;to the extent where nearly everybody is either on the dole&amp;nbsp;or working for either&amp;nbsp;the government or some hideously acquiescent "public-private" entity.&amp;nbsp; And soon, enough people will find this "good life" preferable to actually producing something for a living that the government will be obliged to force people to work.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The United States of Pyonyang will have been birthed (which has been the method to our welfare-state madness for, lo, these many decades of Fabian socialism, regulatory recapture, Cloward/Pivinism, Alinskyism, compassionate conservatism - whatever euphemism you prefer to tag it with).&amp;nbsp; We're already seeing this in California, and in the demands of the Occupiers nationwide.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;More than anything, this seems to mark the downfall of the Tea Party.&amp;nbsp; Perhaps even more alarming than yesterday's elections is a recent polll that shows nationwide support (in the low twenties)&amp;nbsp;for that amalgam of hard working, generally Christian,&amp;nbsp;patriots (who refrain from inflammatory rhetoric, eschew violence or even civil disobedience,, and leave their rally grounds cleaner than they were when the given rally began) lagging far behind backing (iin the low thirties) for the Occupydiots (who demand an end to capitalism, replaced by&amp;nbsp;cradle-to-grave authoritarian&amp;nbsp;totalitarianism, and have turned the streets of the nation into lawless, contaminated, burned out metrosexual&amp;nbsp;rape zones).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;With the economy in worse shape than ever, one&amp;nbsp;would have thought that yesterday would have mirrored, even amplified, the gains of 2010.&amp;nbsp; It just shows that in an NEA-produced culture, the power of indoctrination and mind control is more of a factor than are&amp;nbsp;common sense reality,&amp;nbsp;the testimony of one's senses, or the overwhelming testimony of thousands of years of the history our kids are no longer taught.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ya gotta hand it to them progressives.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;May God preserve His remnant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5547289071277617673-412071085668724884?l=lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/feeds/412071085668724884/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/11/by-charles-lewis-november-8-2011.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/412071085668724884'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/412071085668724884'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/11/by-charles-lewis-november-8-2011.html' title='US votes itself into perdition'/><author><name>crlewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16384656874109737175</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547289071277617673.post-5383007641160548993</id><published>2011-11-01T08:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-01T08:17:56.138-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Newt'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='global warming'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='debate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='campaign'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gingrich'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fraud'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='GOP'/><title type='text'>Faux conservative groups leading us off cliff for Newt</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;by Charles Lewis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Tea Party Nation's Judson Phillips is now urging all partiers to support Newt Gingrich (et tu, Judson?).&amp;nbsp;

It was too tantalizingly easy&amp;nbsp;to prove the left ludicrously, dangerously&amp;nbsp;wrong and rid ourselves of them.&amp;nbsp; Instead,&amp;nbsp;Bush&amp;nbsp;seemed to do everything he could to&amp;nbsp;feed into the "truther" scenario, which led most Americans to believe the right had perpetrated 9/11 (to justify an Iraq invasion that needed no further justification than the absolute proof that Davis and Schippers had produced that Saddam was behind the destruction of the Murrah Building).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Which, in turn, led to our collectivist congress ('07) and marxist globalist dictator ('09).&amp;nbsp; There are no unintended consequences in national politics.&amp;nbsp; If it happens (and if it's bad), it was designed that way (PLEASE read &lt;a href="http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/true-nature-of-lies.html"&gt;http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/true-nature-of-lies.html&lt;/a&gt;, if you haven't already).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Newt's smoking gun was when he "debated" John Kerry on "man-made global warming."&amp;nbsp; He couldn't have had an easier task:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The "hockey stick" graph scandal had destroyed the left's "scientific basis" for the claim,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The East Anglia&amp;nbsp;affair had exposed the degree of collusion through which the climate alarmists were consciously deceiving us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;It was well established that the world had been cooling, not warming, for more than a decade,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;It had been revealed that for the years that the earth had in fact been warming, all of the planets in the solar system had heated proportionately,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The document supposedly signed by all the top climate scientists declaring man-made global warming a done-deal, indisputable fact had turned out to be a fraud, with the listing of&amp;nbsp;names (as supporters)&amp;nbsp;of many practitioners who actually rejected the notion (and just happened to have participated in the study), and with very few of the "signees" actually qualified, professionally, to&amp;nbsp;opine on&amp;nbsp;the issue,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Meanwhile, another document declaring the whole matter a fraud had been circulated - with the signatures of many thousands of genuine climate scientists,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The founders of Greenpeace and The Weather Channel had been brave enough to declare the whole thing a scam,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;A group of eminent scientists, spanning the globe and&amp;nbsp;representing the full gamut of sub-disciplines, had produced (in the UK) a thoroughly&amp;nbsp;convincing debunking of "The Great Global Warming Swindle" (&lt;a href="http://www.greatglobalwarmingswindle.co.uk/"&gt;http://www.greatglobalwarmingswindle.co.uk/&lt;/a&gt;),&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;A court in the self-same (and ultra-PC!) UK had forbidden Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" documentary to be&amp;nbsp; shown to school children there, without a disclaimer that advised&amp;nbsp;it contained&amp;nbsp;numerous lies,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;...just for starters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The famously sharp-witted Gingrich seemed to have a slam dunk in his sights.&amp;nbsp; With such a brilliant proponent on the dais, Kerry, without a leg to stand on (and with Americans suffering countless economic consequences of the implementation of laws grounded in the given junk science), was dead meat.&amp;nbsp; This could go a long way toward turning the tide of the general debate and rallying public sentiment for opening up America's super-abundant energy resources.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Which is precisely&amp;nbsp;why I wasn't the least bit surprised when Newt waved the white&amp;nbsp;flag in his opening remarks that evening.&amp;nbsp; And then&amp;nbsp;joined Kerry and a coterie of leftwing America haters in a campaign promoting the big lie of man-induced global warming.&amp;nbsp; (I knew the real Newt Gingrich from his belly-flops in the '90's, and, unlike so many&amp;nbsp;those who call themselves, "conservatives," somehow I hadn't forgotten.)&amp;nbsp; It was Gingrich's chance to score one big for our side.&amp;nbsp; Fuggettaboutit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;How many ways can I say this?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Fool me once, shame on you, twice, shame on me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;He who lies, steals, and he who steals, kills.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Trust, once broken,&amp;nbsp;is nearly impossible to restore.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;To put one's faith in anyone who's brazenly betrayed us in the past is beyond folly.&amp;nbsp; It's wicked.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;America is in virtual death throes.&amp;nbsp; This election is too critical to squander on an impostor.&amp;nbsp; And, par for the course, there's nobody to vote for.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Newt is nefarious.&amp;nbsp; Perry (Gardasil, just for instance) is pathetic.&amp;nbsp; Romney (closing down adoption agencies that didn't condemn children to be raised by sodomite perverts -&amp;nbsp;and so much more) is ridiculous.&amp;nbsp; Paul (voting for out-of-the closet sodomites in&amp;nbsp;the military, thereby in turn chasing out the cream of American youth -&amp;nbsp;ad infinitum) is an affront the principles to which he feigns allegiance.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Jesus. take the

brigade of&amp;nbsp;"flaming faggots"&amp;nbsp;with their oppressive agenda, with horrific&amp;nbsp;sensitivity training, muzzling of&amp;nbsp;our chaplains, who will&amp;nbsp;force our best and brightest to shower with, and sleep next to, perverts who openly ogle them, subject the most moral and effective fighting force in history to politically correct harassment and demonization, run&amp;nbsp;our heroes&amp;nbsp;out of the service to be replaced by ACORN-like brownshirt-style&amp;nbsp;operatives who'll relish the notion of turning their weapons on patriots and Christians here

style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;I heard him&amp;nbsp;proclaim his favorite fellow Republican

Ward Churchill in blaming America (for offering even token&amp;nbsp;resistance to &lt;em&gt;global terrorislam&lt;/em&gt;) for 9/11, and equating that atrocity to what we'd feel like&amp;nbsp;doing if

to impeach Obama - not for the thousands of ultra-impeachable offenses he continues to commit toward the destruction of America and her Constitution, but for killing the leading&amp;nbsp;pretender to the throne of&amp;nbsp;the BinLaden empire, a Yemeni with "birthright" citizenship who openly&amp;nbsp;advocated for&amp;nbsp;our massacre.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;He's slammed our freedom-loving&amp;nbsp;allies, from Taiwan to Colombia to the former eastern bloc nations, while advocating for virtually chummy relations with satanic&amp;nbsp;enemies from Vietnam to Cuba to Iran.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;In an '08 Value Voters debate (source: heroic Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt), he served up&amp;nbsp;a whopping eight (8) of the twelve un-Biblical&amp;nbsp;answers given by all the participants combined.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;He and his loyal&amp;nbsp;surrogates have thrice&amp;nbsp;undercut and derailed the most Christian of prez candidates: a redhot Tom Tancredo in the '08 GOP race, Constitution Party online poll winner (in a rout) Alan Keyes later that year, and one-time Repuiblican&amp;nbsp;frontrunner&amp;nbsp;Michele Bachmann this time around.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The ungodly Howard Stern, unsurprisingly,&amp;nbsp;has&amp;nbsp;endorsed him.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;He stridently espouses throwing Israel under the bus&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;He's &lt;strong&gt;RonPaul&lt;/strong&gt;, and he just won the DC&amp;nbsp;Value Voters straw poll by a whopping 13% over his nearest competition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If this is the best&amp;nbsp;patriotic Christian conservatives can do, I no longer feel comfortable&amp;nbsp;even beseeching our God for mercy on America&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;All I can do is implore that those readers&amp;nbsp;who still love God and country forward this e-mail far and wide, and stand up against this heinous&amp;nbsp;monster that's hijacked the righteous movement, destroying all earthly hope here, and&amp;nbsp;turned countless conservatives into mindless, soul-less&amp;nbsp;liberals, and&amp;nbsp;that&amp;nbsp;causes erstwhile patriots to lip-sync as he continues to spout his litany of leftwing talking points&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Prayerfully asking the Creator to do what He's gotta do,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Charles Lewis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=""&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Follow-up:&amp;nbsp; a little tidbit came in about the true nature of RonPaul's resounding "victory" in the recent Value Voters Summit (DC) straw poll: 600 "ringers" were brought in special for that vote at the end of the event; they'd witnessed NONE of the speeches, including Paul's.&amp;nbsp; (Indications are that Cain - who took 2nd place in the poll by a huge margin over the remaining candidates - was the true winner, in terms of inspirational oratory.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;blockquote dir="ltr" style="margin-right: 0px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;This does not surprise me in the least, as over the years I've witnessed, on numerous debate broadcasts, audiences apparently going wild over characteristic leftwing comment after characteristic leftwing comment spewing from the mouth of this manchurian madman with the method to the madness.&amp;nbsp; (That included this cycle's initial debate here in upstate SC, where I know for a fact the vast majority of conservatives have no stomach for that type of posturing.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I have to wonder how many of these&amp;nbsp;professional itinerant&amp;nbsp;groupies really are supporters of the package of Constitutionalist policy positions&amp;nbsp;Paul uses to gain people's confidence and lure them away from their righteousness like the antichrist I truly believe him to be.&amp;nbsp; And how many are ACORN-types interested only in downing the few true conservatives that gain any traction in these races.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Actually, I don't just wonder.&amp;nbsp; I'm convinced.&amp;nbsp; We need to rise up against this calculated, contrived&amp;nbsp;menace, lest it put the final nail in our collective coffin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

have put to rest once and for all the pivotal Valerie Plame / Joe Wilson "Niger yellow cake fraud" affair.&amp;nbsp; But, as in all the other finds cases, this was handled quietly and without fanfare&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;As artfully as was intended, the "unjust war" impression was thusly fully infused, the RINOs dutifully fell on their swords, the Marxist Democrats took over congress in '07, and they&amp;nbsp;got their president and supermajorities in '09.&amp;nbsp; Like clockwork.&amp;nbsp; And America's descent into North Korean style communism and poverty&amp;nbsp;is well under way.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;Once again the compliant Republicans had set the table for their more openly&amp;nbsp;Bolshevik masters.&amp;nbsp; Even George Bush's TARP fiasco helped spread the silverware; Mr. Obama has repeatedly excused his incredible spending spree (toward paying back political debts, funding his extreme left projects, decimating our freedoms, and taking over industries) on the basis, essentially,&amp;nbsp;that the previous administration's hands were also dirty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;In the 2008 campaign cycle, the Constitution Party had a great chance to step into the void.&amp;nbsp; It had its first&amp;nbsp;opportunity to field a potentially viable candidate, in Alan Keyes, who won its rank and file online preference poll by a veritable landslide.&amp;nbsp; But the "good ole boys" of the party&amp;nbsp;bought into the shell game described in this article, including adoption of the age-old communist "America is imperialist"-style lexicon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;At the KC convention, which I attended, Keyes was pilloried specifically&amp;nbsp;for not adopting this meticulously engineered viewpoint (if one doesn't stand for something, one will fall for anything, and Keyes, with his fortification of core principles, definitely stands for something).&amp;nbsp; And the party - at a critical juncture in American history - lost its chance to make a difference, and relegated itself to fringe status, at least&amp;nbsp;on the national level.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;It was out of this experience that&amp;nbsp;longtime Keyes&amp;nbsp;associate Tom Hoefling, along with a few other&amp;nbsp;Constitution Party exiles like Keyes and myself,&amp;nbsp;decided it was time to&amp;nbsp;found a new party.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;One with "9/12" type principles -&amp;nbsp;that would hold its candidates' feet to the fire on these and&amp;nbsp;never field a candidate in a race where an endorsable one from another party was already running.&amp;nbsp; One that would rise from the ashes of the compromised, corrupted GOP and offer a trustworthy home for conservatives, constitutionalists and patriots.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;The new America's Independent Party (AIP)&amp;nbsp;now has organizations in all fifty states, and&amp;nbsp;already&amp;nbsp;more registered voters than any party but the Republicans and Democrats.&amp;nbsp; It has established strong ties to the National 912 Project, and participates actively in the various "tea parties" and "state sovereignty" movements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody" style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;AIP recognizes the urgency of America's condition,&amp;nbsp;and is appealing to the help from God that can still&amp;nbsp;pull us through.&amp;nbsp; A visit to &lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://aipnews.com/"&gt;http://aipnews.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, perusal of AIP's affiliation agreement, and consideration of signing the same would be well worth one's while.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The "absence of WMDs" in Iraq has been the pivotal political issue of recent American history. It's created the generally accepted impression that the Bush administration falisified evidence to justify an invasion, leading in turn to the Democrats' takeover of Congress, an impending unprecedentedly leftwing Democrat presidency, and even the acceptance of this leftist spin on the affair by a segment of the "enlightened right," leading to the Ron Paul phenomenon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The "no-WMD" outcome has also meant saved face and enhanced credibility and power for the United Nations (in harmony with an administration pushing UNCLOS and North American unification).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;I'll demonstrate that these have been the intended effects of this "RINO" administration from the start.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;What W has succeeded in doing (like other Surrogate Democrat prezzes before him, like "Daddy Bush" and "Tricky Dick") is systematically divide and de-energize the conservative base. He has about a third of us turned into "neolibs" - mouthing the left's "war for oil, imperialist neocon" rhetoric. Another third is willing to follow Dubya off the cliff like the lemmings who followed his dad and Nixon. No matter the nature of the mental gymnastics required to defend whatever lethal absurdity (as in ChiCom "Freeportgate" and the Dubai ports affair) he offers, these toadies march in lockstep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;That leaves a final third (from Joseph Farah to David Severin to Bill O'Reilly to yours truly) having wondered out loud why Bush has &lt;em&gt;concealed&lt;/em&gt; the WMDs and Al Qaeda connections we've found. W - an internationist by breeding -&amp;nbsp;is consistently dividing conservatives into opposing camps and setting the table for the return of the overt Marxist party (whose bidding he has done "under the radar") to power.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Bush rolls out the red carpet for criminal Mexicans and Salvadoreans who will get driver's licenses (not to mention "paths to citizenship") and "motor vote" virtually 100% Democratic (without even an attempt in a 2-term Republican presidency to repeal this Clintonista "motor voter" legislation that likely nets the Democrats about 5 million illicit votes per election cycle). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Meanwhile he's persecuting true refugees from Cuba (who come from the identical stock that won 2000 for him in Florida) under Clinton's "wet foot, dry foot" policy - capsizing their boats, sending them home (to be tortured to death) even when they land on our soil, and prosecuting brave Americans who help them - as smugglers or murderers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;And his regime tips off Mexico on Minuteman locations - and issues mandates for Border Patrol agents to refrain from investigating reports from Minutemen of illegal crossing citings. But the WMD thing is the most critical issue, the one that has us most confused and divided.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The Surrogate Democrat hypothesis is an apt one for both Bushes, and for Nixon/Ford. Nixon was no conservative. He instituted a socialistic wage/price freeze, initiated our racial spoils system, abandoned Taiwan and recognized China, and surrendered southeast Asia to the communists.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;His lemming's cliff involved sending political hacks to burglarize the office of an opponent he led by 40 points at the time. And most conservative politicos either went down with this pseudo-con's ship or joined the bandwagon of condemning his "rightist" excesses. The net result was major losses in ensuing elections for the conservatism in which Nixon (contrary to the media hype) never partook.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;All this should not have been a surprise if we recognize that Nixon, as a member of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) - our internationalist "invisible government" - could have been expected to work against US interests, including handing a "mandate" to the "Dems" to wreak their more open brand of havoc.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;By the time GHW Bush later took a similar dive ("Yes, new taxes"), it should have come as no surprise. Another CFR member, Daddy Bush had expelled just about all of the true conservative operatives he had inherited from the Reagan Administration, reverted to the Rockefeller school of Republicanism, and sold his conservative base out just about every way possible. But again, essentially out of aversion to the "alternative" Democratic Party (by then pure Marxist), conservatives tied their hopes to this pseudo-con, went down hard in the '92 elections, and suffered 8 years of Clintonism for their troubles. (Read Phyllis Schlafly's '64 classic, &lt;em&gt;A Choice, not an Echo&lt;/em&gt; for documention of a long succession of prior "me too" GOP presidents and candidates who similarly fell on their swords for their Democratic "rivals.")&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;This current administration has eclipsed all records - even adjusted for inflation and population - for "entitlement" (read "welfare" program) spending. The same socialized medicine program that was so radical that Hillary could not get it through a Democratic Congress a decade ago has now become a reality under the "opposition" party, with fully 1/3 of our 300 million "insured" by the government.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;A bi-cameral majority was not enough for W to pass ANWR drilling - even with gas prices out of reach of a many Americans and with us essentially at war with our principle foreign suppliers. But he spared no arm twisting to ram through CAFTA, which ceded about 1/3 of our sovereignty to Vicente Fox-types.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;An unprecedentedly socialistic farm bill, the abolition of the 1st Amendment via "campaign finance reform," the unpunished lynx hair fraud, the non-endangered Tucson area owl off-limiting 1.2 billion acres, continuation of the Feinstein-Schumer "assault rifle" ban, breaking of a campaign promise to reverse Clinton's draconian National Monuments Order; the retention - with disastrous results - of Clintonistas like Norman Mineta, Joe Wilson, and George Tenet, the Patriot Act (facilitating future Democratic abuses), the cave-in on U of Michigan preferences, abolition of restrictions on supercomputer sales to China, Bush's approval of Clinton's destruction of&amp;nbsp;doctor-patient privacy, the pass given Clintonista spy Sandy Berger, his "guest worker" amnesty, &lt;em&gt;ad infinitum&lt;/em&gt; all tell a dismal tale.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Even more telling have been W's policies re the UN's takeover of our sovereignty. He has gotten us back in UNESCO, implemented the UN's One World agenda via No Child Left Behind, aggressively promoted ratification of the Law of the Sea Treaty, accepted the Supreme Court's eminent domain decision (an imposition of principles of the UN's Agenda 21 "Sustainable Development" tyranny), and carried the ball for the World Health Organization, via his plan to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=39078"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;test all Americans for "mental illness."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Rep. Ron Paul's proposed amendment (opposed by the "Bushites") to the last of these initiatives that would have at least required parental consent for the testing of children was roundly &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2005/roll317.xml"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;defeated&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;. Republicans voted no by a 55%-45% margin, as did &lt;em&gt;all but one Democrat&lt;/em&gt;. This may be the first time in history that the &lt;em&gt;opposition party&lt;/em&gt; sided with a president by a much wider margin than &lt;em&gt;his own party&lt;/em&gt;. (This provides stark insight into a motive for Bush wanting to sabotage congressional GOP candidates and replace them with Democrats, which I contend is one of the main reasons he's done a "bellyflop" on Iraqi WMDs, which has indeed produced that transformation of power.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;On the eve of the Iraq invasion, I heard, on the Judicial Watch program, of the systematic suppression of the research of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jaynadavis.com/main.html"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Jayna Davis&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt; (in&lt;em&gt; The Third Terrorist&lt;/em&gt;), which proved that the Oklahoma City bombing was essentially the work of Iraqis (with Nichols and McVeigh thrown in as "lily whites"). This suppression occurred first with the Clinton Administration, which wanted to do anything it could to pin whatever it could on "conservative" forces within the country. The lengths to which Mrs. Davis showed that the Clinton administration had gone were unspeakably scandalous and corrupt. Yet the cover-up was &lt;strong&gt;perpetuated by the Bush Administration&lt;/strong&gt; - which seemingly had much to gain (a virtual death blow to the credibility of its "rival" party; justification for the invasion) by &lt;em&gt;exposing&lt;/em&gt; it. Even the staunch support of lead impeachment counsel David Schippers had failed to yield the slightest attention.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;[When supposedly conservative Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R, CA) later held hearings on Oklahoma City, he called only 2 of Jayna Davis's 20+ key witnesses (and ignored her list of questions for the FBI) and focused on a debunked theory - mirroring the Clintonista lies that rescued "Bubba" from rock bottom poll numbers and carried him to victory in '96 - alleging involvement of the hard right.]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;All of this made no sense in the context of the two-parties-at-each-others'-throats model. But it made perfect sense under the one party (Democrat policy supported by Surrogate Democrats masquerading as "Republicans") model I knew to be true. &lt;strong&gt;I was moved to call the show and predict that we would find WMDs and not reveal that we had found them&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;At this point it was our credibility against that of the UN, whose "inspectors" had assured us there were no such weapons. Knowing Bush's allegiance to the UN's designs on our sovereignty, freedoms, and prosperity, I could not see him showing the UN up by exposing any WMD's or terror links we might find.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Such revelations would have destroyed the UN's credibility, seriously setting back its schemes to take us over. But if &lt;strong&gt;we&lt;/strong&gt; could be the ones to lose credibility&amp;nbsp;... well, we've witnessed the political devastation, both at home and abroad, that this very oucome has created - especially within the conservative movement itself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The 1st weeks of the war only reinforced my convictions. 12 servicemen who uncovered one site took sick, with symptoms typical for chemical exposure (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.redstate.com/stories/war/more_chemical_weapons_found_in_iraq"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.redstate.com/stories/war/more_chemical_weapons_found_in_iraq&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;). The administration immediately dismissed these illnesses as "battle fatigue." (Battle fatigue? After about a week of war? And among 12 out of 12 GI's?). &amp;nbsp;No less left-wing an outfit than NPR then reported our finding missiles "ready to fire" armed with warheads initially testing positive for chemicals &lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.planetark.org/avantgo/dailynewsstory.cfm?newsid=20419"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.planetark.org/avantgo/dailynewsstory.cfm?newsid=20419&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;). This report was immediately shut up via a designation (according to the Washington Times) of "classified." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;We heard nothing more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;In the bowels of a site previously "inspected" by Hans Blix's motley crew, we found radiation "off the scale." Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's reaction was an extremely curious, "all first reports we get turn out to be wrong." (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,83455,00.html"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,83455,00.html&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;) Not "&lt;em&gt;some&lt;/em&gt; first reports aren't entirely accurate," but all of them are always wrong.&amp;nbsp; Sure enough, everything "turned out" to be, ostensibly, false. &amp;nbsp;Funny Rummy should have known in advance they all would be wrong, and funny that we even look if we know in advance we'll always come up dry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;A later barrel find (based on a tip by locals) tested positive twice in the field for Sarin and mustard gas. One of the admin's "experts" abrupty pooh-poohed the findings and predicted that the stuff was rocket fuel (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://abcnews.go.com/International/story?id=79505&amp;amp;page=1"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://abcnews.go.com/International/story?id=79505&amp;amp;page=1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;), which it "sho nuff" "turned out to be" - to the preclusion of laboratory testing.&amp;nbsp; In "reaction," the administration promised not to divulge any further positive preliminary results - we had heard the last from this administration on WMDs in Iraq. Chalk up one more for the United Nations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Funny how "conservatives" who are so willing to swallow whole the Marxist line about the Bushites' designs on conquering the planet for the USA seem so oblivious to the obvious. Is it possible that a cadre so unscrupulous, so willing to fabricate the justification for going in in the first place would not be willing to take the easy step of planting WMDs to perpetuate the ruse?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Little by little, some major figures began to notice the pattern. Bill O'Reilly verbalized how he could not fathom the Bushites' silence on Salman Pak, where we found a half-buried airliner, complete with manuals on how to hijack one and use it as a weapon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;On the eve of the '04 elections, John Loftus (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1169244/posts"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1169244/posts&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;), perhaps the most knowledgeable American on middle eastern intrigues, revealed that Libya - apparently spooked by the fate of Saddam and the Taliban, and in conjunction with 'fessing up to its own WMD projects - had revealed that Iraq's entire nuclear program had undergone an eleventh hour transfer to Libya, personnel and all. Loftus, a Democrat, at that point predicted that this coup would sweep Bush to victory in those '04 elections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;One expected W's party to emphasize this as, if nothing more, an "October surprise." It never happened. But we were not quite ready to elect a candidate with a 35-year history of &lt;em&gt;open&lt;/em&gt; communist collaboration, lying, and disdain toward America. The GOP - with its charging entourage of "RINOs" (constituting the vast majority of at least its Senate retinue), won in spite of its best efforts not to.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Later, the highly credible &lt;a href="http://qandablog.typepad.com/questions_and_answers/2005/11/disinformation_.html"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Richard Miniter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;, in &lt;em&gt;Misinformation&lt;/em&gt;, catalogued large amounts of chemical and biological weapons we had uncovered - finds the administration had never bothered to tell us about. This prompted Joseph Farah's WorldNetDaily to exclaim, in headlines, "Why doesn't Bush just say it?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Then the solid evidence of cover-up began to emerge. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://attaboy.tommydoc.net/?p=1768"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;David Gaubatz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; formerly of the Army's Office of Special Investigations, told us of Nasirah, Iraq, where he saw convincing evidence that flooded tunnels, sealed off by 5-foot concrete walls, were the depositories of chemical and biological weapons that locals said they were. He recalled his frustration at being stonewalled by both the David Kay and Charles Duelfer WMD panels, in spite of months of pleading by himself and other agents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Pentagon operative John Shaw (&lt;a href="http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2006/2/18/233023.shtml?s=tn"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2006/2/18/233023.shtml?s=tn&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;) told of how he and others had uncovered hard evidence that the Russians had removed (to Syria and elsewhere) huge amounts of WMDs in the run-up to the war (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/002204.php"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.jihadwatch.org/archives/002204.php&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;). The US government had gone to great lengths to see to it that this was not publicized . This report dovetailed with the stories of Iraqi Gen. Georges Sada (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nysun.com/article/26514"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.nysun.com/article/26514&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;), and even Saddam's half brother, Gen. Barzan Al-Tikriti (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.worldthreats.com/middle_east/talk_tikriti.htm"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://www.worldthreats.com/middle_east/talk_tikriti.htm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue;"&gt;),&lt;/span&gt; neither of whose contentions and allegations have drawn the slightest note from the administration.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Later, Sen. Rick Santorum (R, PA) uncovered (through the Freedom of Information Act) data that showed we had found and destroyed about 500 other DMVs in Iraq (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://thinkprogress.org/2006/06/21/santorum-wmd/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;http://thinkprogress.org/2006/06/21/santorum-wmd/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;). This info had to be pried loose by a legislator (as opposed to revealed - triumphantly - when it all happened). The Administration itself once again offered no comment - except through an unnamed "Pentagon source" who &lt;em&gt;downplayed it&lt;/em&gt;. And Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham's 2004 revelation (&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: navy; font-family: Arial;"&gt;reported in the BBC&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;) that we had removed 1.7 tons of enriched uranium from Iraq was also swiftly and summarily squelched.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Among those privy to these stories (kept from general consumption by the mainstream media), all this became so plain that some Bush apologists began taking it as a given and inventing bizarre alibis for the suppression of these stories. The best they seemed to be able to do was claim that the finds would implicate Russia, France, and Germany (as they almost assuredly would), and that administration did not want to alienate these countries, as it was looking for their help in an upcoming Iran campaign.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;These explanations do not pass the imbecility test. These deceitful governments would be &lt;em&gt;more&lt;/em&gt; obligated to help us if we exposed their real motives for opposing the Iraq invasion, exposed these folks for the high stakes colluders with Saddam that they were. The metamorphosis in public opinion that would occur would far more than make up for any reticence on the part of this trio of nations. It would likewise stanch much of the present flow of venom against us worldwide.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Many of us know that there are no real choices at the national level between the 2 parties, and that the agenda both follow is basically the overt Marxism of the Democrats. That Republican opposition to this is essentially token, and that the GOP is able to institute certain facets that the Democrats could never get away with introducing, given the critical eye of conservative opinion (including, tragically, that of large segments of the "religious right") tends to not be focused anywhere near as much on Republicans.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Thus, a Republican administration like the current one would never willfully score a knockout punch for pro-American conservatism, and can only be expected to self destruct on cue, just as former ones have. What we cannot do is allow this president to get us accepting precepts (or mouthing the rhetoric) of the left. Once we have done that, his mission, in my humble opinion, is accomplished.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Let's get a few things straight before we on the right lose all notion of common principles and self-destruct just the way those who want to divide and conquer us wish:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;1. Bush's immigration policy is not a "&lt;em&gt;ploy for votes&lt;/em&gt;." Voters of all persuasions (particularly Republicans and Independents) oppose amnesty schemes (not to mention his refusal to either accept Congress's mandate to increase border manpower or allow the military to patrol the frontier) - by wide margins. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Besides, Bush &lt;em&gt;has&lt;/em&gt; to know that the more non-Cuban Latinos he lets slip in, the more ground his party will lose to its leftwing rivals - especially in the absence of Motor Voter repeal. A reasonable hypothesis, then, is that he &lt;em&gt;wants&lt;/em&gt; to lose that ground; the fact he's shut off the Cuban faucet, coupled with his behavior vis a vis Portgate, Freeportgate, and WMD-find suppression (plus the curious self destruction of antecedents like Bush I and Nixon) make this hypothesis seem far from far fetched. And in light of what we have long known about the secret societies that control world politics, it is downright plausible.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;2. The term, "&lt;em&gt;military industrial complex&lt;/em&gt;" is not a synonym for the international banking cartel and tax exempt foundations that have been engineering our doom for so long. Neolibs cite Eisenhower's cautionary reference during his administration, but Eisenhower was a CFR member who did not even call himself a conservative, a Rockefeller Republican very much along Nixon/Bush lines, and thus not anyone who would ever reveal the true nature of what goes on behind the scenes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Besides, our military is and has long been hamstrung, gayed, feminized, demonized, sensitivity trained, forced to fight the UN's battles and even wear its insignias; our industry is mostly outsourced or foreign owned, practically dead in the water. "Military industrial complex" is jargon of the Marxist left, aimed at destroying our economic infrastructure and disarming us. It's not interchangeable with the many accurate (and sufficient) ones we have long had at our disposal: invisible government, CFR, Trilateral Commission, Bilderbergers, &lt;em&gt;etc&lt;/em&gt;. Our troops and weapons industry have kept us free these many years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;3. It's not "&lt;em&gt;corporate America&lt;/em&gt;" that deserves our scorn, but multinationals, including traitorious American-based corporations who've armed the likes of China, with passes &amp;amp; perks from whatever party's administration happens to be in power. "Corporate America" is a leftist slur depicting capitalism as evil.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;4. We are not "&lt;em&gt;imperialists.&lt;/em&gt;" "Imperialist" is a Marxist anti-American term. We're the &lt;em&gt;victims&lt;/em&gt; of a one world takeover (imperialism, if you will), not &lt;em&gt;perpetrators&lt;/em&gt; of expansionism. It's amazing how neolibs no longer condemn the still very active communist imperialism (China, Russia, North Korea, Latin America... ) or Islamist imperialism (Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Malaysia..) - only our own supposed quest to spread the American system worldwide (if only this were the extent of our worries).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;5. These Republican traitors are not "&lt;em&gt;neocons&lt;/em&gt;." The left loves this supposedly derogatory term. "Neocons" simply means "new conservatives," something we need a lot more of, especially the fully informed sort. What we're dealing with are &lt;em&gt;pseudocons&lt;/em&gt; - imitation conservatives. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;6. We shouldn't talk about "&lt;em&gt;globalists&lt;/em&gt;" (though this particular term is not especially inaccurate). The rowdy demonstrators of the anti-capitalist far left - the kind that love to riot and tear up cities where the G8 meets - are fond of this term. Not that the G8 is up to any good, but neither are these thugs, and we don't need to be confused with them. Not when we have tried and true, unambiguous terms these degenerates would &lt;em&gt;never&lt;/em&gt; use in any critical contexts - terms like "internationalists," and "one worlders."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;7. Iraq is no "&lt;em&gt;war for oil&lt;/em&gt;." If Dubya cared about oil for American companies, he would have railroaded through ANWR as he railroaded through CAFTA, and gas would not be $3 or so a gallon with no end in site to the carnage. Iraq - as it is being carefully contorted - is a war for the humiliation of America, a war for the destruction of our credibility, a war to strengthen the UN's grip on us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;The deposing (and, yes, disarming) of Saddam and the enfranchisement of his formerly oppressed people, the incredible acts of heroism and goodwill of our incomparable troops are then seen, ironically, to be collateral (and, yes, beneficial) effects of a much larger campaign to bring us to our knees.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Every time we use the above rhetoric of the left instead of the perfectly adequate conservative Constitutionalist terms I offer here as substitutes, we are raising the hackles of numerous patriots who otherwise might be marching shoulder to shoulder with us. If American conservatives and Constitutionalists can see things in such a context they can heal their internal differences and become the type of united force that is so desperately needed at this point in our threatened nation's history.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="postbody"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Instead of harmonizing with our sworn enemies on the left, we need our own anti-administration chorus - based on the &lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;truth, that there are Democrats, and then again there are &lt;em&gt;Surrogate&lt;/em&gt; Democrats.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5547289071277617673-4770501538341331652?l=lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/feeds/4770501538341331652/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/true-nature-of-lies.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/4770501538341331652'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/4770501538341331652'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/true-nature-of-lies.html' title='The True Nature of the Lies'/><author><name>crlewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16384656874109737175</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5547289071277617673.post-3810000344691184586</id><published>2011-09-19T16:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-23T12:49:06.654-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Romney'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Perry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='president'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Paul'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='debate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='GOP'/><title type='text'>It's just us and God now</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;

font-size: small;"&gt;The latest polls show Rick&amp;nbsp;Perry, Mitt&amp;nbsp;Romney, and Ron&amp;nbsp;Paul 1-2-3 among Republican presidential contenders nationwide.&amp;nbsp; None of these three offers a viable alternative to Obama and his satanic collectivism, none, in&amp;nbsp;my view, is sincere, and&amp;nbsp;none would put up anything more than a token fight in the general election campaign - anymore than Dole or McCain did when they obligingly left the gloves on against Clinton and Obama respectively.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Romney had a lower NRA rating than his last&amp;nbsp;communist (read "Massachusetts Democrat")&amp;nbsp;opponent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;

font-size: small;"&gt;He foisted "ObomneyCare" on his state, including mandatory abortion "benefits."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He rigorously and ruthlessly enforced his state's supreme court's outrageously unconstitutional decree (aimed at the legislature, not the governor) to institute sodomite "marriage," causing the arrest of any parent so much as requesting to be informed as to when his government-indoctrination-center-schooled kindergartener was about to be exposed to a unit in queer indoctrination.&amp;nbsp; His actions led to the closing of any adoption agency that refused to sentence orphans to a life of being raised by admitted perverts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He led his state to financial disaster.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;And so on down the list...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Perry mandated - by illlegal executive order - that all 11 and&amp;nbsp;12-year-old girls received injections of a drug specifically targeting sexually transmitted&amp;nbsp;diseases (thereby sending them&amp;nbsp;the clear message that if they weren't having sex at that tender age&amp;nbsp;they were abnormal), a drug that has a history of causing severe side effects up to and including death.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Only a groundswell of public outrage prevented&amp;nbsp;enforcement.&amp;nbsp; (Now he says he's "sorry" he didn't do the exact same thing, only through the legislature, and exhibits the nerve to characterize the abomination as "pro-life" advocacy).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He has a D- in immigration&amp;nbsp;from Roy Beck's NumbersUSA, for a multitude of offenses, from&amp;nbsp;opposing a border fence to giving taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition (in a package that included &lt;em&gt;citizenship&lt;/em&gt;) to criminal alien invaders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He appointed leftwing activist judges and sadbagged originalists.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Faithful Bilderberger globalist&amp;nbsp;that he is, he tried to ram through the "Trans-Texas Corridor" (aka "NAFTA Superhighway") - a&amp;nbsp; highway system the width of several football fields, off-limits to everyday Americans and requiring the seizure of countless acres of homes, farms, and other private property, leading from Mexico (whose trucks would have unfettered access)&amp;nbsp;to Canada. Only an obstinate legislature prevented this gargantuan atrocity, over his ferocious objections.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He doubled government spending in Texas; he sold off much of the state to foreign interests; he inundated it with fascist, cronyistic "public-private partnerships."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He's up to his neck in "No Chld Left Behind" and government controlled charter schools.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He refused to sign legislation banning intrusive TSA searches and peep shows in Texas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;He vetoed the bill in his state&amp;nbsp;that would have remedied the eminent domain decision, and signed a "thought crimes" bill.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;And he promotes himself as a true blue tea-party Christian conservative.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;But Ron Paul (fresh off a runaway win in a GOP&amp;nbsp;straw poll in the state of CaliGomorrah) is worse.&amp;nbsp; The other two convince people (people who should know better by now) that their (Perry's and Romney's)&amp;nbsp;records and positions on the issues are in line with the principles&amp;nbsp;of patriotic Americans, sincere Christians, and, ultimately, God, when nothing could be further from the truth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;That's reprehensible.&amp;nbsp; But they don't &lt;em&gt;alter&lt;/em&gt; these folks' outlook on these issues themselves.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Ron Paul does.&amp;nbsp; He (with the help of&amp;nbsp;several prominent adherents)&amp;nbsp;transforms the very souls of erstwhile patriots.&amp;nbsp; He gets them applauding&amp;nbsp;rhetoric they abhorred when it escaped the mouths of a&amp;nbsp;Rosie O'Donnell, Charlie Sheen, or Barack Hussein Obama;&amp;nbsp;he transforms arch-conservatives into at least partial&amp;nbsp;flaming neo-libs.&amp;nbsp; The other two leave us unscathed spiritually, just smarting from being burned by the umpteenth fraud.&amp;nbsp; Paul destroys the nature of our beings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;To support this charlatan, one must embrace (read: "swallow whole")&amp;nbsp;all of the following (and much more&amp;nbsp;along similar lines):&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;- 9/11 was America's fault, for daring to place a few meagre obstacles in the path of islammunist world conquest.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;- Tom Tancredo, Alan Keyes, and Michele Bachmann are contemptible, worthy of political obliteration, while Dennis Kucinich, Barney Frank, Chuck Hagel, and Howard Stern are righteous viable allies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;- Israel, Poland, Colombia, Taiwan, and the like deserve no support from us in combatting the withering forces of international satanism, while Cuba, Vietnam, China, and Iran can and should&amp;nbsp;be our buddies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;- Access to&amp;nbsp;pornography, prostitution,&amp;nbsp;narcotics from marijuana through heroin, and an openly gay "homophobe"-bashing military&amp;nbsp;are on a level with&amp;nbsp;God-given rights&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;- Drivers licenses for criminal aliens, and even&amp;nbsp;open borders once we get our financial health in order, are sound policy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Sound like Christian conservative constitutionalism to you?&amp;nbsp; Talk about a "fundamental transformation"...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;And these three toxic pols&amp;nbsp;are, apparently,&amp;nbsp;the best we can do in terms of denying Obama a second, and terminal, term.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;In a life-or-death&amp;nbsp;election.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;In a party supposedly wed to our founding principles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Even with the great opportunity presented by the emergence of the tea party movement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;And the republic would be dead on arrival upon an Obama reelection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;Maybe it's because I'm old enough to have seen conservatives fall time and again for similar flim-flammery by demagogues who abruptly and eagerly stabbed them in the backs.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Whatever it is, it hurts beyond description.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;I'm weary of being the little&amp;nbsp;boy in "The Emperor's New Clothes" on these matters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;There's still God, but &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;I don't see so much as a remnant of a remnant of a remnant worth saving - no "ten righteous men," not even one, in terms of the national stage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;And ignorance is no excuse.&amp;nbsp; We're talking about an alarming lack of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;spiritual discernment, this is indeed a spiritual dilemma.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;How can there be an&amp;nbsp;excuse when the stakes are of this magnitude?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"&gt;I now&amp;nbsp;see zero hope among viable GOP pretenders, and, by extension, zero hope for America.&amp;nbsp; There's God, of course, but at this point, with a citizenry hell-bent on self-destruction, what's in it for Him?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;If tears could penetrate a computer keyboard, this document would be stained beyond legibility.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5547289071277617673-3810000344691184586?l=lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/feeds/3810000344691184586/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/its-just-us-and-god-now.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/3810000344691184586'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5547289071277617673/posts/default/3810000344691184586'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lewislyspeaking.blogspot.com/2011/09/its-just-us-and-god-now.html' title='It&apos;s just us and God now'/><author><name>crlewis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16384656874109737175</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
