I don't have a problem with the Governor getting a pay raise. I work for the state as well in the Department of Corrections. I'm doing more work now than when I started almost 5 years ago. It's been nearly 4 years since I've seen a raise. And the Department wonders why we have over 50% turnover in personnel. Yeah, a raise would be nice. Keep in mind that raises are needed just to keep up with the standard of living and inflation. Pretty sure my dollar of today can't buy as much as it could 5 years ago.
People just don't know how much a trillion dollars is. Today, President Obama ordered his cabinet to cut $100 million in spending. This is the same as telling your wife or husband to find ten cents to cut from that $1000 spending spree, or $1 for a $10,000 spending spree or $10 for a $100,000 spending spree or $100 out of $1 million dollar spending spree. Get it? This is entirely theatrical by President Obama. Does he really think we are that stupid?

I have a remedy. First you make the WASP out to be a racist, a bigot, an extremist and a slaveholder. Then you promote all of those not like him in an effort to make the playing field level. Then you tax the heck out of that WASP and try to reallocate that wealth to those not willing to work hard for it. Then you tell him he can't worship his God much less talk about that God in public. Then you try to take away his weapons, his culture and last but not least his freedom. Pretty soon that WASP gets fed up. That WASP decides that it's just not worth it anymore. That WASP finds other WASPS and they just disappear from society one by one. Everything begins to break down because the Government doesn't have ideas, only the WASP had them. Sound familiar?
Who is John Galt?
Military and police will always defend the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic. I can only speak for myself and say that I would never follow unlawful orders contrary to the Constitution. The military and police work for the People. The People are the government. Personally, if it does hit the fan I have a plan. I will take care of myself and my family.
Concerning the suspension of writ of Habeas Corpus such as Lincoln performed during the Civil War, the South was unlawful in their action. If the dollar goes I don't believe we will have a government any longer. There will be no laws other than the law of survival. Like I said, let's not let it get to that point. We the people can still right this ship. The Constitution is the rock upon which we must make our stand. I swore an oath to that.
Unfortunately if it gets to that most military (I served in both Air Force Special Ops and Army) and police will eventually help their own families. I couldn't blame them for taking care of their own. It may be much the same as RobNRick talks about in Stephen King's "The Stand". Let's just make sure we don't let it get to that point. You'd be amazed at how many in Law Enforcement fear what may be coming. It's palpable I can assure you. I always believed in planning for the worst and hoping for the best.
I talk about this possibility more and more with people. I'm a Peace Officer. I'm fearful for that day. If it comes all businesses will fail. You will have no electricity, no water, no food. All you will have is what you have in your house and what you can take by force. This is one reason why you are seeing a mad rush for weapons and ammo. I pray this day doesn't come. It will be madness in the streets. Unfortunately most Americans don't know how close we are to this day. I know I sound like I'm nuts. I would have said that to anyone a couple of years ago.
I love this Country and everything it has stood for, especially our Constitution. I fear for it's future, for my family and friends for my very existence. Many will say America is "too big to fail". I've heard that somewhere before. Who will bail us out?
I am not surprised by the mainstream media's take on the Tea Party's. We need to do the tea parties in front of the media's headquarters. We need to protest them and the loss of Freedom of the Press in our Country. It's not about the truth anymore it's about political agendas. I we hold these events at CNN headquarters or MSNBC headquarters they will have to report on it. I'd love to see these happen more often.
What about the following Bush bumper stickers that can still be found on the net:
Asses of Evil, Somewhere in Texas a village is missing it's Idiot, Worst President Ever, My Child is an Honor student my President is a Moron, Bush Lied Soldiers Died, Nobody Died When Clinton Lied, Who Would Jesus Torture, Terrorism Wears Many Faces, Bush Sucks, He's Still Not My President, BuckFush and so on. Get it!
Funny thing, never heard of anyone wearing these bumper stickers on their cars getting harassed. When my daughter went to college in Seattle I was afraid every time I visited because I had a support the troops ribbon magnet on my car. Strange world we live in that's for sure.
