So what is George Soros really up to?

Re: So what is George Soros really up to?



These words could be used to describe George. . . . Self important, prideful, arrogant, know it all, autocratic, bossy, conceited, contemptuous, disdainful, domineering, egotistic, haughty, high and mighty, high-handed, imperious, insolent, on an ego trip, overbearing, pompous, presumptuous, pretentious, supercilious, superior, high-and-mighty, insolent,

Overly convinced of his own superiority and importance.

Hmmmmm. . . .To rich for his own good.

The big question I have is why would anyone with Jewish heritage would think that disarming the common man is a good thing?

It doesn't add up. George is up to no good. Period.

This comment from an idealist I know.
"Sorry the rest of the world is not armed and the bad guys don’t have carte blanch...you need guns, I’m not going to say you don’t. . .but the rest of the world doesn’t in most cases"

My response to him. . . .

Must be nice living in fantasy land. Maybe I'll come visit ya when I need a break from reality but the rest of the world does have carte blanch and it continues to show up. Lets go down the list shall we.

Iran.
Iraq.
Somalia.
Darfur.
Rwanda.
Sudan.
Cambodia.
Vietnam.
Bosnia.
Italy.
Germany.
Philippines.
China.
Tibet.

This, just in the last century and not all inclusive. There is more. Smaller incidents. I haven't even mentioned South America and The Disappeared.

If I look back just little bit further in history, there is a shlt lode more. I could go on and on. In most cases, a well armed force, faced an unarmed populace.

There are sheep, wolves and sheep dogs. I like to think of myself as a sheep dog. I will protect sheep, even liberal ones against the ravenous and or treasonous wolves of our time. We have always had to protect ourselves, defend our rights. Rights not given but innate rights burned into our hearts and minds.

Freedom is not free. It's cost may be counted in blood.

Really not an argument here, I just thought it would be nice to see that shlt happens to people who do not have the means to defend themselves.

Of course they all had guns and were able to fend off invaders or evil doers. They just didn't want to make a mess so they volunteered to be butchered like pigs and cattle. The women and children willingly submitted to rape and mutilation. They had the means to defend themselves, they just didn't because they were good, obedient little slaves.
Really, you should read about it. These guys are great with guns and machetes. Truly evil.

Lefties and idealists really crack me up. I have never seen the like unless we are conversing about self defense. How can you be so blind and yet have an intellect. Many are articulate, well read and well off. I have seen this and yet you would sacrifice your and your families welfare, well being, safety, to hold to a wholly indefensible position.

As soon as you take the position that gun control is a good thing in any amount, you reconcile yourself to oblivion.

Ben Franklin may have said this but it could just as well have been said by any one and be just as poignant; Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

I expect. . . .

Politicians... what do you expect...

I expect them to conduct themselves with honor and have a respect and regard for the blood that was spilled before their time, to secure the rights and the liberty we all bask in and to gather and govern.

I expect greed and avarice to be expelled from the halls of congress and senate. To be driven from the floor, to be given no voice. I expect honesty, care and concern for their fellow man.

I expect them to act with all the goodness men and women are capable of.

I expect they will serve, not rule.

Stop electinig lawyers.

Re: U.S. Gov't has reached critical mass

---

These conversations have become pointless.

We (our elected, designated, majority ruled, representatives have finally figured out that there are no locks on the vault. Our pockets are open to them and so we give away our hard earned dollars to shore up bad businesses, line the pockets of fraudsters (25 million retirement bonus?) and all this with the blessings of our populace, for the most part.

GOD!!! We can't let them go down. Think of all the people it would hurt. I say those people needed to find other work.

Think of the economy, I say it is time for more change than Obama is willing or able to provide.

I hear whining and complaining, like sniveling little brats but no one is willing to do what is necessary to bring about the real change this world needs.

People are so busy trying to figure out how to buy, buy and buy. Consume it all. Don't upset the apple cart. 5% of the world's population has 95% of the money.

The rest of us, unless I miss my guess, every member of this forum, are so inured in the system, so caught up in the consumption of goods, and struggling for every scrap thrown to them like rats in a sewer that they are unable to or simply unaware that there is a travesty being perpetrated on them and they are like lobsters in a pot of cold water on top of the stove.

Like children on Saturday morning watching cartoons and the raft of commercials for this or that toy, we are told what we want and according to our means, a Lexus or a Chevy, etc.

Occupied with one upping the Jones, even if they are virtual Jones.

I here mumbles here and there. Once in a while a "loudmouth" will speak his mind, So fringe they are soon drowned out by the clamoring hoards brawling over some perceived minor wrong.

Their focus on small, insignificant troubles while the heat is turned up on the pot.

This changes when we change. Government will not change unless we change it.

Edit: Stop electing Lawyers. Stop electing the wealthy. For Christ's sake, to even have considered John Kerry for any kind of leader just baffles the shlt out of me. I know that was last time. I won't even get started on this time.

Israel the aggressor???

So, Hamas and Hezbollah lob a few "fireworks" into Israel and kill a few Israelis, disrupt business, strike fear into the hearts of grandmas and children. Destroy families, kill innocents. no biggy.

Israel gets fed up with these azz hats and stomps em and there is a fire storm. Weird.

Poor, poor Hamas.

After years of terrorist activity and many clashes and finally getting their piece of the pie, they are still lobbing rockets into Israel.

Thank GOD Europe sees this for what it is. Not a country tired of being attacked and having innocent lives destroyed, families shattered, infrastructure damaged but rather a bald faced incursion of colonialism by the Israelis.

Whew. Cooler heads have prevailed. Thank goodness the Euros have there heads on straight.*

Taking a stand.

being a responsible adult, I am taking my stand here. We are responsible for how the world turns out. If you accept a small discretion today, perhaps a larger one will be acceptable tomorrow.

We must not take any comments of abuse with a grain of salt. We are the leaders and teachers of today and we are accountable for what we say. Making a cruel joke about cats, minorities, women etc.; for example, referencing torture or unreasonable discipline in a joke about any of the above, is tasteless or crude at best.

If that is the person you are or aspire to be, fine. I don't think that the world has room for that any longer. Respect and honor.

I must confess that I don't tell jokes like that or actively listen to them because people look up to me on how to act and I want to be a good example. Personally, that type of humor embarrasses me and is disrespectful IMHO.

Cute stories, Lovable stories, heroic stories about our heros or animals are great.

Some times I think that people mention cruel things they have done or imagined simply because no one has ever told them how far from acceptable behavior it was and they just don't realize what it says about them.

Grassroots my A_ _!

Anyone notice that McCain hooked up with his lib buddy again. Feingold. For yet another wildly disastrous collaboration i'm sure. And now they want money for a "Grassroots Movement"?

Not one dime.

He is Dem Lite. And like Mud, never again. This is the last time I will be fooled or forced into a vote I don't really want to cast.

Eight years of Dubya and now Barack. The only way I vote Republican in the future is if Palin runs for pres. As it stands now, There is no one even standing in the wings but her. I have no idea who she could even partner with.

This is one grassroots movement that should come to a screeching halt.

Slaves, all of us?

This is still a hi-larious argument.

Some one mentioned illegals or legals making a living here and sending home boat loads of cash to mom and pop and then referenced them as slaves. This IMHO is the pot calling the kettle black.

When you live in a society where 5 percent of the population has 95% of the available cash, denaro, bucks, you are in effect a slave. Sure you get to have a goat. Till the land (not your land, ever, don’t argue, you know it‘s true. Just try not paying your property taxes.)

No different than Kings and peasants. Surfs of today unite.

6,752,713,502 The number of people alive today. (six billion seven hundred and fifty two million seven hundred and thirteen thousand five hundred and two.)

337,635,675 The number of people with most of the cash. (three hundred and thirty seven million six hundred and thirty five thousand six hundred and seventy five.)


6,415,077,827 The number of slaves squabbling over the pittance left over. (Six billion four hundred and fifteen million and seventy seven thousand eight hundred and twenty seven.)

No 2nd None of the rest!

With out the second amendment, we not only lose the first but the rest are merely empty words on paper.

That is not to say we will overthrow our government gone wild but with out that option at hand, we are merely subjects to be ruled as Obama's aid so clearly and concisely announced on meet the press.

The co-chair of Barack Obama's Transition Team, Valerie Jarrett,
She told Tom Brokaw that Obama will be ready to "rule" on day one.

The U.S. Constitution, Soon a minor footnote in history, Eventually forgotten on some dusty shelf.

Freedom and liberty banished from the hearts and minds of our children's children.

We are enslaved with approval given by means of silence, apathy and indifference as long as our hand is well lodged in the proverbial cookie jar. The thrill and excitement of the Liberal media frenzy should give us all pause.

We must defend ourselves against those who would usurp our rights and enslave us to a grand socialist agenda. Imbued with a sense of entitlement, these politicos use the law and power of the Judicial, Congress, Senate and the presidency as a weapon against their own people.

This conversation only serves to highlight the thin thread by which freedom and liberty hold on. The concerns mentioned above are very real and the time for action is at hand. The bell has been tolling and the light of liberty has been lit since a liberal government was even considered a possibility.

The media is complicit in the eventual fall and guilty of treason. Go ahead and laugh, ridicule, make snide comments. We always hope for the best. I have always believed everything will be alright.

I can tell you now that it is not alright and this is a dark moment in history.

Obama likes to frame himself as a new Lincoln or a New Deal dealing Roosevelt but it wasn't Roosevelt's New Deal that saved American fortunes so long ago. It was December 7th 1941. Any passive perusal of history will bear this out.

And to memory, I don't recall Lincoln or Roosevelt making claims to ruling this great land. They are servants of the people not rulers of the people.

The simple realization that bad, evil, mad, insane people recognize no laws nor because of the fifth amendment, do they have to would seem to be common sense but in truth, people like Kennedy, Pelosi, Biden, Obama, Daly, etc. Don't seem to see this and choose, out of fear, to penalize the good, honest, law abiding folk who need to be able to defend themselves.

This is not a wailing lament but rather a call to arms. A call to sense. Some would say, Common Sense. Without a strong voice to speak for us, there will eventually be no voice. Along with the NRA, Consider the GOA and certainly your local Gun advocate groups.

We must eventually coalesce into one group, one voice. Stand for something or you'll fall for anything. Long before that saying was popularized in song, I was given that by early mentor. I believe it and I live it. So should you.

I take the 2nd

Some think the right to carry concealed or otherwise; is God given, a natural law. Part of the order of the universe. For us, this is best illustrated by the Second Amendment. Some say, our concealed carry permit.

Shall not be infringed. Does this mean, the holding or exercising of a certain right shall not be restricted in any way, taxed, licensed etc.?

"Shall not be infringed" does not leave a whole lot of room for fiddling with.

Second Amendment: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Amendment 9: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.


What do you think?

We have the right.

Comments like this "Good luck in getting all those traits in a politician..." in reference to all that is good and honorable in a person. . . .

Apathy, the real tragedy in all of this.

We have the right to expect our representation to be honest and courageous if we are. Sniveling little, lying, stinking thieves if we are. Worse, Incompetent, mindless, goal-less cookie jar dippers if we are.

The choice is always ours. Don't accept mediocrity in your life or your government. We don't except that in our custom parts or our paint jobs or our engine work. Why, because we car about our things, cars, motorcycles, homes, drapes or toasters. We must care about our future and our government in the same way. In a better way.

We just got stuffed and then watched as the stuffers went to places must of us could only dream about and partied their behinds off. Then we said, mainly to ourselves, "Oh sure, figures." and we held no one accountable. Not the least of which is our elected officials.

Powerlessness is self imposed.

We, corporately as a nation, just allowed our government to give over a hundred billion (much more in the pipeline); no strings attached, to Insurance companies and banks. I can't believe I actually lived to see this day. What they did pales in comparison to the paltry sums offered up to the car guys.

By the way, the brew-ha-ha over the car guys made an excellent smoke screen for the insurance and bank debacle.

One person may not be able to make much of a difference but a nation may rise up and say enough! No More! If you love liberty and freedom, The buck stops here. In your mind and hands and your words.

Short treatise on gun control by Ron Paul

Here is an excerpt from a great article on the hidden agenda behind gun control by Texas Congressman, Ron Paul:

Gun control advocates tell us that removing guns from society makes us safer. If that were the case why do the worst shootings happen in gun free zones, like schools? And while accidents do happen, aggressive, terroristic shootings like this are unheard of at gun and knife shows, or military bases. It bears repeating that an armed society truly is a polite society.

The fact is that firearm technology exists. It cannot be uninvented. As long as there is metalworking and welding capability, it matters not what gun laws are imposed upon law-abiding people. Those that wish to have guns, and disregard the law, will have guns. Gun control makes violence safer and more effective for the aggressive, whether the aggressor is a terrorist or a government.
