In Search of God's November Blessings

by Charles R Lewis

Let's take stock:

• We have a Republican House of Representatives that made a great show of "repealing" Obamacare 33 times - knowing the vote would be useless in the light of a Democrat Senate and White House.  But when it comes to something completely in their power that would stop the abomination in its tracks, they refuse to exercise their prerogative of defunding it (thanks, evidently, to the "leadership" of John Boehner).  One has to ask the question whether these guys are really on our side or just want us to think they are,

• We have a GOP candidate with a gubernatorial record - on same sex marriage, gun bans, government takeovers of health care, abortion, judicial appointments, ad nauseum - that's at least the equal of any Democrat's in terms of constitutional carnage.  Anyone who thinks we can expect a SCOTUS justice any better than, say, John Roberts, is in deep denial.

Speaking of Mitt Romney, just in the past few days alone he's stated that the likes of:

• The groundswell for freedom of speech and religion that led to the Chick-Fil-A Day record turnouts and

• Concerns about the indications of Muslim Brotherhood infiltration at the highest levels of the State Department

are "not part of [his] campaign,"

and confirmed his position that:

• The Boy Scouts should accept (can you spell "S-a-n-d-u-s-k-y?") gay adult scoutmasters.

And the latest polls show him trailing President Obama by 9 points, and dropping.

Maybe it's just me, but under the circumstances, it appears America needs a miracle from God to survive in any meaningful sense past 2012.  This is not rhetoric; I'm dead serious.

If we're going to get that blessing, are we going to achieve it by Christians casting cowardly votes, purely out fear, for an unrighteous candidate who's plunging in the polls and every day giving indications he doesn't want their votes?

In California this week, an unprecedented event is taking place when that state's American Independent Party decides on a candidate for its guaranteed ballot line.  Competing for the honor are all the most prominent conservative third party hopefuls, including the Constitution Party's Virgil Goode and America's Party's Tom Hoefling, plus several notable write-in hopefuls, including former Southern Baptist Convention VP Wiley Drake (no, "Leftertarian" Gary Johnson doesn't qualify).

The verdict will be issued on Sunday, August 12, 2012.  The victor will be in a position to consolidate support among third party patriots as no other candidate has ever been.

If I am a Christian in any sense beyond the sense in which electoral tackling dummies of the ilk of John McCain and Mitt Romney are "conservatives"...

If the word "faith," if my concept of a just and omnipotent Creator, has any definitive meaning in my life...

If I have the vision and the realistic grounding to read and interpret the graffiti as described above and elsewhere:

then I will back that candidate.  I urge, I beg,  I plead with fellow believers to do likewise.  And I pray to Jehovah that He accept our offering and act accordingly.

Handwriting on the Washington Wall

by Charles R Lewis


Earl Warren, Harry Blackmun, Warren Burger, William Brennan, John Harlan, Sandra Day O'Connor, David Souter. Lewis Powell, Potter Stewart. Charles Whittaker, John Paul Stevens, Anthony Kennedy, and now, most prominently, John Roberts: a list of the Republican-appointed Supreme Court Justices who have participated in 2½ generations of shredding of your Constitution and dissolution of your freedoms.  These wolves in sheep's clothing have given the left victories in every crucial case over a period of more than a half century.  And the close of the latest SCOTUS session underscored that the fix is still in.


If you go back as far as I do, you should have learned by now that, no matter who appointed whom, nothing substantially good is going to come out of America's usurping "highest of the three co-equal branches."  Even if you just go back to the recent Rehnquist Court, if you were paying attention you noticed that an assemblage where the GOP-appointees outnumbered the Dems 7-2 still consistently gave the left victory after victory - from Kelo vs New Haven, which gave local governments the ability to steal people's property and give it to others who would produce more tax revenues, to McCain-Feingold, which essentially outlawed free speech in electoral campaigns, to various anti-Christian rulings, the Court gave America's enemies pretty much exactly what they wanted, time after time.


At the prevailing ratio back then, the left needed three "crossovers," and got them in the persons of Souter, Stevens, and (taking turns, as if consciously to preserve their images as "centrists," all the while giving the statists 5-4 victories) either O'Connor or Kennedy.


Flashing to the present, Roberts has completed the conversion of America into a hardcore socialist dictatorship with his convoluted rubber stamping of what I call, "Robomacare," "Robamatax," or even "Robomneytax," in recognition of the inspiration for the plan, who gives America the most vexing presidential electoral "choice" yet.  And don't forget, Kennedy is still on the Court for whenever it's his turn once again to sell us out.


Something's wrong with this picture.  America is being "played."


Supposedly, Republican presidents weren't going to appoint any more Warrens or Souters.  With the goal posts already moved light years to the left of the Founding Fathers' playing field, it was crucial that the "mistake" not be made again.


Roberts, we were led to believe, had been thoroughly vetted and didn't have a Roe vs Wade, a Miranda, a school prayer ban, or a primary runoff prohibition (the one that, ironically, got both McCain and Romney - both despised by the party's conservative rank and file - nominated without winning majorities in individual states, thanks also to seemingly planted "conservatives" who divided that vote and refused to drop out even when it was clear their presence could only result in Mitt's nomination) in his (Roberts') deliberative psyche.


Right.  Even Ann Coulter (currently Romney's self appointed spinmeister) warned us about Roberts very early in his confirmation process.  Now Robomneytax, part of a string of rulings where America lost the farm thanks in large part to Roberts,  lets us know exactly where he - along with America's rationale for trust in Republican appointees - stands.


Beware a president with (D) or (R) after his name, Mitt Romney - who appointed only nine of his fellow Republicans among his thirty-six bench appointments as governor of Massachusetts - especially.


So vote Libertarian, right?  Yeah, for Gary Johnson, who'll push to legalize every drug through heroin, and is pro-abortion (though against the death penalty for serial murderer-rapists, etc), pro-gay marriage, pro-prostitution, pro-open borders (oops, I'm a Christian and a patriot).


Constitutionalist?  Even that party couldn't find anyone better this year than a guy (Virgil Goode) who's spent about as much of his political career as a (D) as as an (R).  He championed the toxic "Equal Rights Amendment" in its heyday, has voted for huge farm subsidies and race-based spoils, and said recently he'd cut defense and not touch entitlements.  No, thanks.


Once again, that leaves America's Party, at least as viable as the aforementioned two "third parties," and ideologically pure, with a rigid policy pledge that will hold all candidates' feet to the fire, on penalty of immediate withdrawal of support.  Tom Hoefling, longtime head of the Alan Keyes braintrust, is the candidate this time around, Keyes (the previous banner waver) having retired from elective politics.


There are a couple others - Wiley Drake and Laurie Roth - with similar issue positions (I can personally vouch for all three, but Hoefling has a big head start on the others in terms of ballot access and party apparatus, and figures to be on by far the most ballots).  Yes, it's a longshot, but America is far enough gone that a candidate like Hoefling, with ballot access very likely in the vast majority of states, appears well worth our consideration, especially if the voters therein ever wake up to Romney.


Romney - you remember him, the one with a lower gun rating than his Democrat gubernatorial opponent, the one who introduced socialized medicine on the state level, imposed gay propaganda on kindergarteners, caused Catholic Charities to be shut down for not adopting out orphans to sodomite couples, and promised he'd never interfere with "a woman's right to choose," the one whose reaction to the Obamnesty executive order was, essentially, to assert it didn't go far enough, the one who was the only Republican candidate absent from most of the "Values Voters" debates - is not the one to save an imperiled America.  No way no how.  


Fool you repeatedly, shame on you.


Desperate times call for desperate measures.  Ask yourself if a vote for McCain was worth it.  Ask if he even tried to win.  Ask yourself if Romney is in any sense a better candidate or even better on the issues than McCain, or, for that matter, Obama.


And, most importantly, ask yourself what your God would have you do.  And pray for America and your children and theirs.

US votes itself into perdition

by Charles Lewis

November 8, 2011.  Write that date down.  I can't tell you how much of an influence factors like Motor Voter, paperless (easily hackable Diebold) balllots, ACORN-style illegal activites, the New Black Panthers knowing they can intimidate with impunity, and simililar illicit aspects of ths now-banana-republic-style American electoral process contributed to the outcome.  Probably quite a bit.

Even so, the results of two "plebiscites" in America are jarring.  Particularly in view of the fragile condition of our way of life, under assault from all angles, and especially looking ahead to 2012, whose tallies will surely determine whether freedom and prosperity have any chance of existing here (and in the knowledge that God's blessings will be indispensable), the results are troubling.  But first the "good' news:

The voters in a referendum in what otherwise appears a stunningly liberalized Ohio demanded an exemption for the state from the hyper-socialistic centerpiece of the Obama administration, popularly known as ObamaCare.  The outcome will amount to nothing in the face of any unfavorable upcoming SCOTUS decision on the matter, but it does send a message.  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.

And in Mississippi voters had the judgment to see through the lobbying of outgoing establishment RINO Governor Haley Barber and prohibited him from taking private land and bestowing it upon megacorps who'd pay higher taxes.  Kudos.

Now the bad news:

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.  "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.  According to the report of the vote-counting cybersystem, the voters said no.

And back in Ohio, the voters are said to have, in effect, pronounced the death knell for 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.  A rejected ballot item would have ended, to an extent, the ludicrously conflicted-interest practice (even according to socialist prez FDR, BTW) of obligatory unionism (strikes and all) among that group.

Republican Governor John Kasich has been placed in an impossible catch-22.  He does not have the funds - under the Obamaconomy - to provide essential services, and is now denied even the distant prospect of narrowing the outrageously out-of-skew compensation gap between government and real workers.  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) by Big Brother, earning twice as much money and bagging 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 conceivably its most nefarious) "school" system.

This will plunge a dagger into that state's private sector's ability to compete for talent with the leviathan.  Government will have to grow (and confiscate profits) to the extent where nearly everybody is either on the dole or working for either the government or some hideously acquiescent "public-private" entity.  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.

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).  We're already seeing this in California, and in the demands of the Occupiers nationwide.

More than anything, this seems to mark the downfall of the Tea Party.  Perhaps even more alarming than yesterday's elections is a recent polll that shows nationwide support (in the low twenties) for that amalgam of hard working, generally Christian, 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 cradle-to-grave authoritarian totalitarianism, and have turned the streets of the nation into lawless, contaminated, burned out metrosexual rape zones).

With the economy in worse shape than ever, one would have thought that yesterday would have mirrored, even amplified, the gains of 2010.  It just shows that in an NEA-produced culture, the power of indoctrination and mind control is more of a factor than are common sense reality, the testimony of one's senses, or the overwhelming testimony of thousands of years of the history our kids are no longer taught.

Ya gotta hand it to them progressives.

May God preserve His remnant.
