Danny Jeffrey has a brilliant essay to read. Jeffrey looks at Leftist-anarchist movements such as Occupy Wall Street (OWS) and doesn’t see it as the problem. Rather Jeffrey sees OWS as a symptom of a problem that spells danger for Americans. The danger is Leftists and odd alliances such as radical Islam teaming up to destroy the America the Founding Fathers set out to found. That which multiplies the danger is that non-Leftist Americans ignore that which is right in front of their eyes.
9 That which has been is what will be,
That which is done is what will be done,
And there is nothing new under the sun.10 Is there anything of which it may be said,
“See, this is new”?
It has already been in ancient times before us.11 There is no remembrance of former things,
Nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come
By those who will come after.

12 Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly;
For what can the man do who succeeds the king?—
Only what he has already done.13 Then I saw that wisdom excels folly
As light excels darkness.14 The wise man’s eyes are in his head,
But the fool walks in darkness.
Yet I myself perceived
That the same event happens to them all.

That the same event happens to them all.
15 So I said in my heart,
“As it happens to the fool,
It also happens to me,
And why was I then more wise?”
Then I said in my heart,
“This also is vanity.”16 For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever,
Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come.
And how does a wise man die?
As the fool! (Ecclesiastes 1: 9-11; 2: 12-16 NKJV)

Think about Solomon’s wisdom as you read Jeffrey’s essay.

OF STUPIDITY, NEGLIGENCE, AND COMPLICITY...
By Danny Jeffrey
2/11/12
Guilt, so they say, is an ominous burden, and I say, that it is a burden that many need to bear. If one is a total hermit, living on top of a mountain far removed from civilization, electricity, and a knowledge of current events, then he must be excused due to his ignorance. The rest of us have no such excuse.
The greatest calamity in the history of civilization is about to befall mankind and all but those hermits fall into one of four categories. Those who have the courage to oppose it, those who are so stupid that they are unaware of approaching danger, those who are negligent and aware but choose to disregard that danger, and those who are complicit in this struggle to enslave the entire human race. Occupy Wall Street (OWS) is not The danger, for they are no more than a symptom. They are but mindless pawns of a far greater power than they can hope to understand, but they are a good starting point for my readers who do grasp the bigger picture.

Occupy Wall Street (OWS) is not The danger, for they are no more than a symptom. They are but mindless pawns of a far greater power than they can hope to understand, but they are a good starting point for my readers who do grasp the bigger picture.
A recent survey showed that twenty percent of Americans have never even heard of OWS. It is frightening to know that people who manage to live in such blissful ignorance of the cancer that now infests our streets will still be going to the polls to vote in November. That is bad, but here is still worse. This link is to The Leader (SlantRight: Danny forgot to post the link as of 2:50 pm 2/13/12), the award winning student newspaper at Elmhurst College. They took a random poll and report that twenty percent of the student support OWS, fourteen percent oppose the Marxist message, another twenty eight percent had no opinion at all, and a staggering thirty eight percent were totally unaware of what is happening in the streets of our biggest cities. That leaves a hard to believe figure of eighty six percent who either support the shenanigans and the message of OWS, don't care about the message, or are oblivious as to what the message is. This is coming from tomorrow's leaders, and none of them can claim the innocence of being a hermit. They are still another group to fear on election day, but fear them still more in the future when they have become tomorrow's leaders. If you think that Nancy Pelosi is bad, just wait until you see her replacement.
Most, if not all, who read this are well aware of the liberal agenda being put forth in today's educational centers. This indoctrination would perhaps account for the twenty percent who support OWS, but what of the sixty eight percent who simply don't know or care about what is happening to this nation? We can't blame that on the left. This is the ME generation in all of its glory. Selfish indifference and selective ignorance does not good leaders make. Lately a word has become popular in America ... Zombies. It is so appropriate as there are so many people today who lack the first clue about what is going on around them. This lackluster crowd will soon learn, and sad to say, they will learn the hard way.
I did not begin this essay in an effort to condemn the young college students, for like OWS, they are but another symptom. Today's ultimate evil is an elite group of billionaires who have chosen to reshape the world in their own image. Many years ago I heard of the plan for a New World Order(NWO), and to be perfectly honest, I scoffed at the conspiracy theory. How little did I know! Then it was a regarded a crackpot theory. Today it is an acknowledged fact. The truth became much more apparent when President Bush the Elder, openly embraced the doctrine of the United Nations and announced the coming of that NWO, and so many still did not get the message. The See, Hear, and Speak Not crowd simply choose to not want to know, and that choice will be their downfall. They are more comfortable with their sitcoms and video games, ignoring the reality and living in a state of denial that is about to overtake them, and that reality will bite them firmly on the hindquarters.

In the Iliad Homer spoke of Cassandra of ancient Troy who was blessed with a knowledge of events to come, and cursed so that none would heed her foresight. In vain she warned her countrymen of the dangers of the huge wooden horse left by the Greeks. That warning was ignored and caused the fall of Troy. Today there are many Cassandras who warn of the disaster that will soon engulf us and, just as she did, we utter warnings that fall on many deaf ears. People like Glenn Beck, Frank Gaffney, Trevor Louden, and we bloggers are referred to as the Alternate Media, when in truth we are the only media. What was once the Main Stream Media has become no more than a vast left wing propaganda machine that the nation would be far better off without.
The puppets of OWS and the young who go to college for the parties are only two of the many facets of the assault we face. There are liberal instructors who play a major role in promoting the New World Order and politicians who specialize in getting rich while they betray our nation. The communists who, just a few years ago, were thought to be a thing of the past have returned with a vengeance. Allied with our labor unions and the leadership of the Democratic Party they are attacking capitalism with an unrelenting force. Only history will reveal if the election of Barrack Obama was the final nail in the coffin of this nation, or if it was the signal for patriots to resurrect the America that once led the world.
In a recent post on Facebook a friend, well aware that there are hard times ahead, commented that he hoped it would not be as bad as Glenn Beck predicts. I am convinced that it will be every bit as bad as Glenn Beck says and probably worse. Most Americans on both sides of the first Civil War believed that awful conflict would be over after one battle. It was worse by far, as one battle did not decide the victor. There were thousands of battles in thousands of place that now live in infamy, or in glory, depending on one's perspective. WW1 and WW11 lasted for years and both were horrendous. Korea should have lasted longer but ended unresolved, and we are still paying for that mistake. Viet Nam and Iraq were disasters that lasted many years and accomplished nothing, because we let the politicians wage war instead of generals, and Afghanistan will be the same.
All of these monumental struggles were preceded by a great buildup of tension and turmoil, but none of those compare with what the entire world faces today, and we no longer know how to resolve great disputes with the strong attitude shared by the Allies in World War II...Unconditional surrender! We, to put it simply, have forgotten the meaning of Victory, choosing instead to negotiate, and if we settle for anything less than total victory then I will guarantee you this: Our offspring will one day fight the Third Civil War and perhaps the Fourth World War.
Now, standing on this precipice that lies between what we have been doing, and what we should have been doing, we face our second Civil War. In this conflict to come we will have not one opponent but many. We are being assailed by the old Progressives, the new Communists, racial discord, and many of our own politicians who have defected to the other side as we continue to pay for their lavish salaries and lifestyle. Americans are under assault from Islam, both as infiltrators and from abroad, and a court system that has abandoned the Constitution and the Republic. An often unmentioned but determined foe, the Progressive Press, will remain intact unless We The People, put an end to their lies and evasion. And then there are "The great unwashed masses" ... The apathetic. They, while not enemies, are an anchor about our feet or an albatross about our necks, and we must either drag them along or leave them to starve.
As for an election solving the problems...It ain't gonna happen! Even if we have a clean sweep and get Obama out of the White House and gain control of the Senate, America's hard core enemies will remain. Corruption reigns supreme and is now demanded by many Americans. The likes of Pelosi and Reid will continue to hold the reins of power as long as they give their voters what they want. People like Maxine Waters and the rest of the Black Congressional Caucus will continue to be elected by their constituents for the same reason. The Old Guard, like Hillary and Bill, will still wield a vast influence, along with our liberal press and university professors. The Only thing that will end the problems and return America to the principles laid out by the Founders will be when we the patriots once again feed that tree of liberty.
We are all hoping to see Obama and company imprisoned for their treasonous acts. That will not happen either. IF there is an election, which I strongly doubt, and Obama loses, America will see vast bonfires in our cities as the riots begin anew. That spectacle will have America seeking a quick resolution to the problem and a return to civility. If ending the chaos means that the criminal league of Washington DC walks free, then people will probably accept it a working trade off.
Obama and his mentors have an ace in the hole: Gerald Ford set the stage by pardoning Nixon. It can be done again. If Hussein of the White House knows that he is going to be forced from office and indicted for his crimes, he, while still legally President, can pardon all of his co-conspirators and then resign, thus allowing Joe Biden to assume the Presidency and pardon him. Then they can all live happily ever after, above the law and filthy rich, as a poverty stricken America struggles to rebuild from the ashes.
This great nation has passed the point of no return. The ballot box has failed us miserably Politics as usual has become our greatest weakness. If America is to be saved it will require more than it citizens taking the time to vote. They must now walk the gauntlet in an effort to restore, and that effort will require great sacrifice and inspired leadership.
We can take a look at current events and learn that while on the verge of WWIII our military is being demobilized. Take a look about at your fellow American and see them become demoralized. Then look to our elected leaders who are either on vacation, playing golf, or making a backroom deal with the Muslim Brotherhood. No, I do not feel that Glenn Beck is exaggerating the danger we face. The issues of today would be difficult enough if we had a strong Pro American in the White House. Having naught but a sock puppet Anti American residing there gives us a guaranteed recipe for disaster ... but it could be worse.
We, the patriots of America, are the biggest Army in the world. While the citizens of other nations have been stripped of their weapons and freedoms, Americans have held firm in their belief in the Second Amendment. The freedom loving people of this nation have more arms and ammunition than the combined armies of many of the countries around the world. That is why there is such an effort to strip Americans of their weapons. Hillary Clinton is doing her level best to enact legislation that will disarm our citizens. She and her allies have a plan and it cannot be imposed on us unless we allow it. Stand firm, stand proud, and stand united. We are facing the worst storm in the history of the United States, but together we will weather it and pass the torch of freedom to the next generation and hope they learn from our mistakes.
In time of any crisis involving a lot of people there is one statement that always applies: "Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way." Soon it will be time for Americans to choose their roles in coming events. Choose wisely.

I'm sixty seven and since Ronald Reagan left office I have watched my country slowly deteriorate as freedoms are lost and the value of our currency dwindles. This has been a slow but steady decline until Barrack Obama entered the White House. I will not refer to this man as President. That is a job that deserves respect and he has earned none at all. I am convinced that were it not for the Tea Party stirring up the public we would now be living under a total dictatorship. He seeks only power and has no loyalty at all to the United States, and as long as he is in office I shall write to any who will read and speak of what he is and what he is doing to this country.
