''Maybe it is best stated by C. S. Lewis, “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.-from somewhere in cyberspace

We are living in the latter days that now have had the ''good news'' told all over the world for a witness to the Nations. Its all going to happen in the flesh this time too. Those 2 Olive Branches of Revelation 11, do not need to die. There are some questions to be asked in times like these. Why is the Lamb, in Revelations 14, shown standing with 144,000 men who were sealed on their foreheads?What will that new song be, that only those 144,000 can learn? Surely it is 144,000 &…
There is a hard to believe truth in this video. It don't much matter to me if its true or not anymore. I had just always thought that the truth would help fix things. No matter how it works out, I am blue collar to the core. Nobody ever told me that the latter days (of bullshit) would all happen in the flesh like they… Continue
I say that, for it takes more courage to stand for Peace, than to send kids to WAR. How could anyone who wins the Nobel Peace Prize, send 30,000 more to WAR? How do you sleep you moron? (And thats being polite...)
Bring all the Troops Home and close all over sea bases. Or when you die, and we all stand over your grave to make sure you are dead, you will come before me and I will kick you in the balls, which you do not have now.
This Soldier brought tears to my eyes, with the truth of war he talks of.
I've been telling the Soldiers, I see who come through what is left of Fort Devens, not to go. They hear me when I say that we broke a Treaty which we signed with the… Continue
Does anyone really know what time it is? Its not that
I think Dylan in "All Along the Watch Tower" was wrong about the hour getting late.
It was more like he was right about many among us thinking life was but a joke. Which has lead US to just waisting time.
Since the gospel of a brotherhood of mankind has been preached and even trampled all over this Beautiful Planet, we are closer to the days the Lamb said would come. Which having taken a good look around these…
The bankers had Lincoln's government over a barrel, just as Wall Street has Congress in its vice-like grip today. The North needed money to fund a war, and the bankers were willing to lend it only under circumstances that amounted to extortion, involving staggering interest rates of 24 to 36 percent. Lincoln saw that this would bankrupt the North and asked a trusted colleague to research the matter and find a solution. In what may be the best piece of… Continue

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it… Continue
Its great to hear Nations in the 21st Century can't invade another. From my recall at least 2 high powered Politicians feel the same way as me and you. Hey, but lots of us know words from deeds. What kind of Freedom can Iraq ever give US? Somehow it seems that Bill O'Reilly's 20 bucks a barrel oil may turn into 20 a gallon if things keep going this way.
Thank god some lady in a bar pushed Rodney Crowell to write this "Don't Get me Started. I came into this Club to unwind." I've been… Continue
