I am sick of writing long, well-researched posts. Trust me, I take no offense that you are probably sick of reading them. Quite frankly I am just plain tired.
There is too much deliberate obfuscation going on these days. I don't have the time to consistently combat it with 800-word essays. Libya is a prime example. Things have been deliberately complicated to such an extent that the issue, tragically, has permanently become a "what...uhhh...the hell...just happened?" issue. Indefinitely! They've been effective, no?! We know that this dishonor cannot stand, but given the way they've successfully muddied the waters, 'he-said-she-said' details are not how we win this fight.
A receding number of people in our society have the will (or time) to work through all of the disinformation and propaganda currently distributed by our government. We must be honest with ourselves: there are departments currently occupying entire wings of three-letter agencies where analysts are dedicated around-the-clock to work through and decode disinformation from foreign governments. The media used to provide this full-time service to Citizens of the United States, but this is obviously not the case any longer.
The one thing we have on our side is simple principle. Moving forward, my goal will be to point out, in glaringly obvious ways, the unprincipled inconsistencies of the opposition's logic. Posts will be kept to short critical thinking exercises.
Comments are not only encouraged, but necessary! This is our practice at formulating responses that frame the issue in a way that no one can argue with! The end-state goal is to have a few tested questions ready in our back pocket to ask that asshole commie family member or friend that voted for Obama (the same one that always cleans you out of Heineken when they come over for a holiday). When they can only regurgitate government propaganda talking points and resort to Alinsky-type character assassination, your time to shine will just be getting started.
Anyway, the gig is up for Liberty in America if we cannot take back the culture. The GOP is dead. The only thing that will win at this point is to take the libertarian critical-thinking red-pill, get off the hamster wheel to nowhere and unequivocally win every bar-room debate with simple logic. This must be done swiftly - no filibusters!
Simple logic and truth, if delivered in 20 second bursts, will be like dumping water on a progressive-control-freak Gremlin. Just serve it up, stand back and watch them meltdown. Let others see you do it. I look forward to our future discussions. Stay tuned...

Bring it on! "Daniel Webster was right, "God grants liberty only to those who love it and are always ready to guard and defend it.' Patriot Post readers understand that commission." --Dr. Larry Arnn, Author and Constitutional Scholar Here's another to use from Thomas Jefferson when discussing entitlements, "Never trouble another for what you can do yourself".
ReplyDelete....and when your audience doesn't listen or understand the need to take back liberty, use this Jefferson quote, "When angry, count ten before you speak; if very angry, count a hundred." We may be doing a lot of counting in the future....
Here is what feels so confusing and saddens me. You think your views are the right way to a better america, yet the people who voted for Obama think their views are the right way. I don't 100% agree or disagree with either side. But, wouldn't it be amazing what this country could become and do if we could actually become "One nation," respect each others differences, and work together to find some sort of common ground. I doubt that will ever happen because anger is a pretty strong emotion, and both sides hold so much of it. With that said, I enjoyed reading your long well-researched blogs! For a politically middle person, it really helps me understand and appreciate the libertarian view point so please continue. Thank you.
