TSA, Mexico, Big Sis and Submission

While Americans are being subjected to demeaning groping and gaping by TSA agents in the name of “Homeland Security”, Big Brother (or should I say Big Sis) is implementing the “Security and Prosperity Partnership” with Mexico which will enable millions to travel across the border into the US and will, in the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s own words, “allow expedited clearance for pre-approved, low risk travelers upon arrival in the United States. Yet Americans are being conditioned to let the government intrude even more so into our lives and liberties in total submission. Requiring American citizens to expose their naked bodies to scanners and overzealous TSA agents' hands is repulsive and unconstitutional. Anyone who thinks they are safer because they let some government official stick their hands down their pants or leer at their private parts is totally naive to what is going on. Freedom will be obsolete within a few years if Americans don’t wake up.

Arcade Fire - The Suburbs

A year gone by

It's been almost a year since my last post. So much has happened. In my last post, I talked about the sleeping giant that is the conservative movement in this county - and in part, my predictions have come true, in that the conservatives threw out the liberals and the RINOs in great numbers in this last election. I believe the best is yet to come, in 2012.

However.

More and more I see that the two-party system in this country is a trap. By dividing the country in half, and having us fight each other (liberal vs conservative), the greater enemy continues to slowly chip away at our freedoms, our bank accounts, our families, our land ownership, and our way of life.

I'm coming to the point where I see Republicans and Democrats as being on different sides of the same coin. Both parties are heading our country toward a cliff. It's just that the Democrats will drive us over that cliff more quickly than will the Republicans. Either way, we're going to crash and burn, and right now the party in power has us in hyperspeed toward that cliff.

Just as Bush Senior and Clinton are political foes on the surface, but are golfing buddies behind the scenes, I believe the same holds true with the new members of Congress coming in January. They're going to talk the talk, but not necessarily walk the walk, because they are for the most part, different sides of the same coin as the Democrats. I hope they prove me wrong, but I'm not holding my breath. I have a feeling that 2012 will see us throwing a lot of the new guys out on their backsides because they didn't come through like they said they would.
