I’m sure there are some people that are licking their wounds after the defeat of John McCain and the victory of Barak Obama in the presidential election. In any contest there is a winner and there is a loser. That’s the way things are. So be it. I did think however, that the electoral vote count was going to be a lot closer. As of today, the electoral vote tally is 349 electors for Obama and 173 electors for McCain. That is a significant margin. What the American people have done here is sent a very strong message to the Republican Party: "No more George Bushes!" I can’t agree more. While I voted for Bush twice, because I felt that he was the lesser of the evils, I didn’t like George Bush. I don’t think that he was an effective president. Many people saw it the same way. It was George Bush that cost the Republicans this election, and Bush knows it. You can see it on his face when he’s been addressing the American people after the election. There is another message that is being sent, and I’m skeptical at best. I see it on some sites, and hear it from the young educated white-collar professionals and semi-professionals that make up a large portion of the upper income bracket of our service economy. They have a collectivist world citizen view rather than an individualist American citizen view and they are elated at having Obama as president. In their opinion, he will make us become citizens of the world who just happen to live in the United States. America is just another cog in the machine. We are the world as the song goes. This is a very strong move toward the one world government that the liberal elites have been plotting for years. This is a consolidation of power into their hands. It’s going to be an interesting ride.
In this election, I voted for McCain. His worldview is more inline with my worldview. I do want to take this time right now, however, to say that I offer my heartiest congratulations to President-elect Barak Obama. I hope for this country’s sake, he has a successful presidency. We need that. Barak Obama is a clean slate as a president right now, and I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt. Most conservatives that I know are saying the same thing. However, we will be watching and waiting in the wings for the time when it’s our turn again.
I consider myself to be a citizen of the greatest country in the world, The United States of America. I served this great country as a member of the Armed Forces for 26 years. I am not a citizen of the world educated elite. It offends me that I should have to share citizenship with Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez and Kim Jong Il. I’m a member of the average white person class that the educated elite holds in contempt and want to control for the "common good." My ideology lies with the "hayseeds" in "fly over country," not with the latte sipping, NPR listening, arrogant elites that now have the mandate to remold society into their world view. With the White House going Democrat, and with Democratic control of both houses of Congress, it’s now the Democrats game to lose. If the economy goes down the toilet in a year, they won’t have anyone to blame but themselves, and the midterm elections in 2010 are only two years away.
Ok, so why does this average non-elite, need to be controlled for my own good, contemptuous white male vote Republican? I am retired military, and having spent 26 years serving this country in the Air Force, I’ve lived through two Democratic and three Republican administrations while I was on active duty. The military always fares better under a Republican administration than it does under a Democrat administration, and people vote for what is in their best interests.
I’m not sure what an Obama Administration will do to the military. No one knows, except for Barak Obama. Based on history, I have a feeling that the active duty force will find themselves getting insufficient pay raises each year, and retirees will find that their pensions will not increase in order to keep up with the cost of living. This is always the case with Democratic administrations. With a Democratic controlled Congress, it would appear to be a gimme. They prefer to spend the money on domestic programs for drug addicted welfare queens and their hordes of illegitimate children, rather than spending money on the good men and women who volunteer to put their lives on the line to keep us safe.
The job of President of the United States is also two jobs. It’s also Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. How Barak Obama will perform as Commander in Chief is also an unknown. One thing for sure is a large percentage of President-elect Obama’s constituencies are anti-war, anti-military types. This is where things are going to get very interesting, and this old sarge is smiling at this possibility. From a revenge point of view, there may be a silver lining in this dark cloud. I am now going to give you one example of my "Audacity of Hope."
Barak Obama has said that he wants s a civilian security force that will equal the US Military. What this really means is anyone’s guess, but I’m more than a little bit skeptical. Woodrow Wilson’s goon squads come to mind. He also wants mandatory service of some kind for everyone between the ages of 18 and 27. This is going to get real interesting.
Ok hippies listen up. You are about to get what you paid for when you bought the "Audacity of Hope" at the ballot box. First of all, whether you like it or not, the world is not a very safe place. There is no such thing as Utopia. Get your Granola fueled heads out of your asses. You are all going to be lining up to get into some sort of peacenik service program like the Peace Corps or some other sundry organization so that you can do pacifist service and meet your mandatory obligation without picking up a rifle. There are only going to be so many slots in those kind of groups. If you are not connected to the right people, you are not going to get in those programs. Therefore, you will either be joining the military, or Obama’s domestic security force. Either way, you are in for a rude awakening. On one hand, you just might find yourselves in Malaria infested parts of Africa as part of UN peace keeping and nation building activities. On the home front, you just might find yourselves being called in to maintain law and order any time there is a "disturbance" like a protest that the Obamamesiah determines is not in his or his administration’s best interest. Again, Woodrow Wilson’s goon squads come to mind. It will be real interesting to see hippies who couldn’t get a slot in a program building Tony Rezko style public housing projects being ordered to beat the shit out of protesting hippies, and if you refuse to beat the hippie, you will be the hippie facing the firing squad. After all, mutiny is mutiny, and mutiny is punishable by death. The "goon squad" will be forced to turn against their friends and brethren in ideology. Remember in the Civil War that it was brother against brother? Hmmm…
That’s the domestic end of it. How about the other side of the coin? What’s going to be real interesting too, is going to be seeing how the patchouli scented unwashed Phish followers, Vagina Monologuers and Deadheads now in the international peace keeping/ nation building forces are going to deal with boot camp. Let me tell you, it’s no fun. I’ve been there. Air Force Basic is considered to be a little less demanding than the other branches of the service, but when I went through back in 1977, it was still very rough. It was much rougher in the years before that. Of course when I went through it, everyone there was there because they were volunteers. Boot Camp is going to be a lot harder when they are training recalcitrant individuals who don’t want to be there in the first place. Let’s face it, you couldn’t get into the Peace Corps, so now you are in the Marine Corps and you are pissed.
What our training instructor told us in Basic was that when you have an all volunteer force, punishment pushups, digging holes with teaspoons, cleaning toilets with toothbrushes, and being set back in training, or even the threat of being set back in training, is usually enough to keep people in line. When you don’t have an all-volunteer force, you sometimes have to resort to physical coercion techniques in order to force compliance to orders and directives when individuals who are there against their will, are not cooperative. I would love to be a fly on the wall when some spoiled anti-military elite, who is stuck doing military service because he just didn’t have the right connections, finds himself being backhanded across the face or slammed against a wall, because he forgot that the first word out of his mouth is "Sir." Another famous boot camp disciplinary tactic is the punish the entire unit when one person screws up. Sometimes they will punish everyone except for the one that messed up. This usually leads to a late night blanket party. One way of doing group punishment is to herd everyone into the shower area and then turn the water on hot and dump a few gallons of ammonia and bleach in there mixed together, and then close the door. The fumes become unbearable after about a minute, and within another minute, everyone is vomiting all over the place. All that mess will now have to be cleaned up afterward too. They will be bringing back what is called, "Motivation," which is a unit where the worst of the uncooperative are sent. If you are sent down to Motivation, you will wish you were condemned to the lowest circle of Hell for all eternity instead of being there.
Ah, the revenge. Just think hippies, you are also going to find yourself living the elites dream of collectivism taken to its fullest extreme. You will find yourselves with shaven heads so you all look the same, in uniform so you all look the same, marching every where you go so you move as a unit rather than as an individual, and you will be subject to mandatory drug testing. You will also be forced to bend to the will of the military elites, not the academic or legal elites that you identify with, who in this situation are the NCOs and officers who are higher up the food chain that you are. You are actually going to get a taste of your own medicine. Gee, that’s going to suck. You are no longer important. You are a nothing. You are no longer special. You are nothing but a worthless piece of shit that hasn’t earned the right to even call yourself a human being. You are actually going to have to do what you are told to do and not question it. Don’t you just love authority especially when you have a problem with authority? I can’t wait to see it happen to the spoiled little adult children who have been brainwashed into the ideology of social justice. Mommy won’t be able to hire a lawyer for you either. You won’t be able to sue the big bad grumpy sergeant, because he kicked you in the ass or pushed you down a flight of stairs. They own you. You’ll just have to put up and shut up just like you want the rest of us to do. Oh and by the way, if you continue to be a real problem child or decide to just up and leave because you don’t like being there, there is always the Uniform Code of Military Justice, a court martial, and a place called Leavenworth.
The very people that venomously screeched about Dick Cheney being able to get a student deferment during Viet Nam, and George Bush supposedly using family connections to get into the Air National Guard are going to find themselves doing military service against their will. Will they be screaming about their fellow liberal brethren getting preferential treatment allowing them to serve in the non-military services? That’s what I call social justice. As the Obama supporters say, "It’s a new beginning."

Tuesday, November 4, 2008 Election
This coming Tuesday, Americans will go to the polls and vote for the next President of the United States. The choices we have are Barak Obama and John McCain. For the record, I’m not crazy about either one of them, but I’m planning on voting for McCain. I consider him to be the lesser of the evils. One of them is pure socialism and the other one is socialism lite. I would love to see less socialism in this country, but ever since the New Deal, we are kind of stuck with some degree of socialism. I just want it to have the smallest footprint possible.
I think that John McCain is going to have a hard time getting elected, but as of today, it’s still a possibility. People are ready for change, and the Republicans have not done a good job running this country for the past eight years. A lot of this has to do with the man in the White House.
I personally believe that George Bush is not an evil person, and the for the past 8 years, his heart has been in the right place. That being said, he has not been a very effective president. The only thing I can say positive about his presidency has been the fact that we have not had a terrorist attack in this country since 9/11. I am not going to discount this, because with the world as it is today, this is a very significant accomplishment. For this I will thank President Bush. There have been many attempts here in this country; most of which are not reported in the press, but so far none of them have succeeded. This is very significant since there have been over 27,000 terrorist attacks of one form or another since 9/11 throughout the world. In case you haven’t noticed, the media hasn’t been too forthcoming about reporting that news either.
Here’s my opinion on why the American people are willing to gamble on an unknown with terrorist, Marxists, and corrupt associates and cronies to be our next president. First of all, the Republican Party leadership along with President Bush have shown the American people that they have absolutely no backbone when it comes to dealing with the Democrats. This has made a large percentage of us Republicans very angry with our party leadership. While I’m not about to jump ship and vote for Obama in order to send a message like some Republicans are going to do, I’m completely disgusted with the leadership of George W. Bush and the Republican leaders in the House and Senate. Because of their collective cowardice and guilt when it comes to standing up to a political party that wants to establish a Socialist government ruled over by the intellectual classes, we will now be looking at the end of America as we know it. This is very sad.
Along with this, Bush and the Republicans have not listened to and have been obtuse as far as listening to the mainstream Americans when it comes to issues such as illegal immigration. Why did we not seal our borders after 9/11 and then start rounding up and deporting as many illegal aliens as we could find? Yes I know the typical Left wing oral diarrhea; "Businesses need cheap labor." Hey Lefties, how about "rich liberals need cheap nannies and gardeners." Oh, don’t forget the illegals voting for Democrats illegally along with Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and all those "residents" of Sleepy Hollow Cemetery who will be voting for Obama. Since nothing is being done about it, I guess the Republican leadership is either in the tank with the Democrats, or else they don’t have any balls. I think it’s a little bit of both.
The Republican leadership, including George Bush, have also chosen spending on entitlement programs like Medicare as a measure of success. We are spending way too much money on domestic social programs, and since the 1960s, they haven't succeeded. All they have done is cost a lot of money. These programs continue to be failures and are going to bankrupt us if we don’t start reining them in…the never ending without an "exit strategy" War On Poverty, the Social Security crisis, Medicare, and The No Child Left Behind Act come to mind. You don't keep throwing money at a broken system. You fix the system and then fund it to the point where it works. You don't let it become a financial bottomless pit with no tangible results. Social progams don't work when the only ones that benefit from the progams are the people managing the progams.
Here are other issues: When are we going to finally have an energy policy that will take us into the future? Ethanol is a government grant funded boondoggle for corn farmers and wind and solar will never supply us with all the electricity that we will need. Every time an energy bill came out of the House between 2002 and 2005, when Republicans controlled the House, Northeastern "moderate" Republican Senators saw to it that the energy bills were killed. Why? Along with that, President Bush complained, but never demanded that he be presented with a sound comprehensive energy bill that he could sign into law. I guess there is just too much money to be made in government subsidized "green" investments for rich liberals...and George Bush is nothing but a rich liberal who happens to side with the Religious Right on social issues in order to garner their vote. The rest of us say, "drill, drill, drill..." If we can provide more of our oil ourselves, build a dozen or so more refineries, and through tax incentives to the auto manufactures, "encourage" them to produce vehicles that are more fuel efficient, we can drive through lesser demand, oil prices through the floor. This will through the free market collapse the economies of our enemies like Russia and Venezuela. This will also provide less funding for terrorism coming out of the Muslim countries in the Middle East. Nothing would make my day better than that.
Now let’s look at the other part of the equation…The American people are so softened down at this point thanks to our failed public education system and our guilt ridden embrase of diversity and multi-culturalism, that they are ready and willing to accept the big wet "Depends" of Socialism as the new American way of life. On one side of the coin we have become a nation of lazy underachieving spoiled brats who want everything handed to us on a silver platter. This dumbing down of our nation has been deliberate, and it was slowly put into place over the past 100 years in order to bring to fruition the goals of the Fabian Socialists, the ultimate in self-righteous intellectual Narcissists. They set in motion the plan for a one world socialist government with a class of highly educated elites ruling over the rest of us while the rest of us were brainwashed over the years to be subservient to them. Now let's look at the other side of the coin. Have you ever wondered why there are so many members of the upper middle class who embrace Socialism? It’s because they know that under Socialism they will be the ones that will control the rest of us "for the common good." For them it’s beyond having things handed to them on a silver platter. It’s about power being handed to them on a silver platter. It's about arrogant elitism. They claim that they are "concerned" about the poor and all the other victim groups. Bullshit! Nothing could be further from the truth. Upper middle class liberal elites have nothing but contempt for the less educated who actually get their hands dirty when they work. They feel that these "lesser people" are too stupid to manage their own affairs. How do I know? I work with many of those liberal elites, and they have said so in their own words. They really believe that the "little people" need the "big people" to make their decisions for them for the "common good." We are just too stupid to manage our own affairs. We need to be controlled. The liberal elites are willing to pay a small amount more in their taxes for that privilege.
The international socialists now have all the pieces of the puzzle in place. They have been putting this into place since the 1890s. They are about the close the deal with the election of Barak Obama, the liberal elites facilitator to establish the dictatorship of the ruling intellectual classes.
President Bush and the Republican Leadership, you have no one to blame but yourselves for the possibility of the end of the American way of life. This Tuesday will be an American milestone. Alexander Tyler, the famous Scottish historian stated in the 1700s: All societies go though the following progression, and have since the establishment of formal governments. First there is bondage, then there is enlightenment. This is followed by courage, which is followed by liberty. Following that there is prosperity followed by complacency. After that you have apathy which leads back into bondage. Think about that this Tuesday when you go to the polls. Are we so cynical and apathetic that we are ready to vote ourselves into the possibility of Marxist bondage? The stained glass door to the Fabian Society in London, England shows the earth on an anvil being struck by hammers. Above that in a smaller panel is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Think about it.
