"When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and
carrying the cross." -- Sinclair Lewis

Why of course the people don't want war ... But after all it is the leaders
of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to
drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship,
or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship Voice or no voice, the
people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy.
All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the
pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger." --
Hermann Goering, Nazi leader, during the Nuremberg Trials after World War II

We as citizens-as Americans living under the many benefits of this great
nation-have the responsibility-if not the obligation to be informed

To announce that there must be no criticism of the
President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not
only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American
public ~ Theodore Roosevelt ~ 1918

A man who has never gone to school may steal from a

A muttonhead, after an education at West Point—or

The captains of industry . . . have on the whole
done great good to our people. Without them the material development of
which we are so justly proud could never have taken place. . . . Yet it is
also true that there are real and great evils. There is a widespread
conviction in the minds of the American people that the great corporations
known as trusts are uncertain of their futures and tendencies hurtful to the
general welfare.
This . . . is based upon sincere conviction that combinations and
concentration should be, not prohibited, but supervised and within
reasonable limits controlled; and in my judgment this conviction is right

2 Corinthians
8:13-14 For
I mean not that other men be eased, and ye be burdened: But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that
abundance may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality.
I see this as the Christian ethic and the philosophy stated in most all
belief systems--yet, those with abundance choose to call it Socialism ~Pak~

In this life I see people choose the easy way, what is
gained is a little bit of peace, what is lost is a little bit of integrity ~ Kirkegaard

The germ of destruction of our
nation is in the power of the judiciary, an irresponsible body --
working like gravity by night and by day, gaining a little today and a
little tomorrow, and advancing its noiseless step like a thief over the
field of jurisdiction, until all shall render powerless the checks of
one branch over the other and will become as venal and oppressive as the
government from which we separated ~Thomas Jefferson~

A man is not the sum of his

Tonight as our
troops begin to come home, let us recognize that the hard work of freedom
still calls us forward. We’ve learned the hard lessons of history. The
victory over Iraq was not waged as a war to end all wars Even the new world
order cannot guarantee an era of perpetual peace. But enduring peace
must be our mission ..President

America would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore
order [referring to the 1991 LA Riot]. Tomorrow they will be grateful! This
is especially true if they were told that there were an outside threat from
beyond - i.e., an "extraterrestrial" invasion or "Terrorists" attacks,
whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then
that all peoples of the world will plead to deliver them from this evil. The
one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario,
individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their
well-being granted to them by the World Government." Dr. Henry Kissinger, Bilderberger Conference, Evians, France, 1991

We
are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time magazine and
other great publications whose directors have attended our union and have
respected their promise of discretion for almost four decades...it would not
have been possible to develop our world project if we had been subjected to
the full fire of publicity all these years. The supranational sovereignty of
an international elite and of world bankers is surely preferable to the
self-determination which has been practised for centuries past
David Rockerfella at a re-union of The Bilderberg Group
(where politicians get their orders from bankers) The Council on Foreign
Relations, and the Trilateral Commission (on which banks and governments
meet) at Sand, Germany in June 1996

often hear the exclamation, "I am not choosing sides." I find that

Spiritual
progress is like detoxification. Things have to come up in order to be

My philosophy is that there is
nothing more important than going through life with as little
inconvenience and discomfort as possible
And, I am not concerned about the inconvenience or discomfort of anyone
else.....only my own
I also see other people only for what I can get from them....if I don't
get anything from them, they are just in my way.
