Reincarnation and Climate Change

China recently made it clear that they needed to approve of any person that was reincarnated as the next Dalai Lama.  Now, we all know that except in the case of Jesus Christ, reincarnation has never been proven to occur.  Even he was not reincarnated, he was resurrected.  The Romans 2000 years ago also tried to deny the return of Christ. The point here, whether its the  Chinese government or the Romans two millennia ago, is that there is no limit on the power governments want to assume.  The authority they want, the control they crave does not even have to exist for them to assume it belongs to them

So we get to the United States. Here the Obama administration has debated suing oil companies for being climate change deniers.   They want to control what people think through the force of law.  Even though there are lots of scientists on both sides of this issue, its an issue that hampers their efforts at controlling who uses oil and how much oil they use.   It is the height of arrogance and the antithesis of a representative republic (democracy).

Recently, I fixed our sump pump.  This small device controls whether or not our basement floods.  It moves water and sludge from the crawl space to the outside.  It controls whether our foundation remains solid or whether it erodes destroying our house.  Watching our government  it is clear that the mechanism for protecting the foundation of our democracy has failed.  The sump pump of Congress and the courts whose job it is to keep the sludge out of our system have failed.  Like the sump pump at home, they need an overhaul.

Ted 3 (The Bear Comes Out)

The stuffed bear of erstwhile movie fame has two credits to his resume.  If bad humor could get votes, I think people would vote for the stuffed zoo escapee for President.  Instead they put their hope on the king of media, Donald Trump.    He is the 2016 version of hope and change.  No depth, no values, no commitment to anything other than winning.  We already elected that guy, BARACK OBAMA.

With Ted Cruz, if you look at his record, you have to conclude he has a moral foundation and is a phenomenal supporter of the constitution.  If you support life, believe in the second amendment and small government, then he is the Ted for you.  This is TED 3.

Unless, Cruz learns to speak plainly and bluntly he won’t succeed.  His message needs to be raw, not erudite.  Unless he masters that he won’t pull the blind mice from following Trump the New York piper.

Doing the Job of the Media — Of Guns and Ammo

Over the past 4 years the Federal government has been buying up tremendous amount of ammo causing in some cases shortages where certain caliber shells were not available to the public.  It’s not like the ATF or FBI is buying all this ammo, but the FDA, the EPA, OSHA and other federal agencies.  We are not talking about enough rounds for small enforcement actions.  We are talking millions of rounds all total.  

Our media needs to ask:

What does the EPA or OSHA need with 100,000’s of rounds of ammo?

Is the government forming an unofficial militia like the Nazi brown shirts?

What is the real reason behind these purchases?

Who specifically authorized these purchases and what budgetary line item was assigned to them?

How does the purchase of these rounds fit into the mission of these agencies?

Where are these rounds now?

Is the government planning to use these rounds on US citizens and if so under what scenario?

Is the purchase of these rounds an attempt to disarm the US populace?

What was the White House’s involvement in these purchases?

How are these rounds being distributed and to whom?

Where is the constitutional authority to arm Federal Non-Military, non-law-enforcement agencies?

What Congressional over site has there been on these purchases? 

Isn’t arming the government in this way a clear step toward tyranny?
