Um, How bout an argument that does not have a basis in ad homine attacks. Like Beck uses arguments that he looked up from the reputable guys that founded this nation. You know his facts that he can footnote are accurate. World Image? Really. As for Obama. He has a good image because of benefit of the doubt. He hasn’t done anything except Stimulus that he payed for by selling bonds and then bying them back with Federal Reserve printed money. But to be fair the Fed made that decision. As for healthcare there are real arguments to be made that the government can’t do it cheaper and better. If you look at this as a movement away from limited government or a PR campaign by “early 20 century progressive” idealists, then what did they believe. A variant on Socialism, which the Communists didn’t like because it was a variant of their system, which Hitler disagreed with so he came up with his own socialist party the Nazi’s.
All of these variants are bad. FDR’s socialism has consentrated power in the elites of this country. People like Bush and Obama and Clinton, and the Kennedy’s. The point of the right is that this power should be more localized. Small corporations and governments are less prone to abuse and to making system wide problems.

This review is of Common Sense by Glenn Beck.

Not to be confused with Thomas Pain’s Common Sense. Why could they be confused? They can be confused because the title is the same and the topic is the same. I skip straight to describing the topic.

These are my own words, ( otherwise this would have someone else’s name but I needed a segway), the topic is look at what this ‘adjective’ government is doing, it’s only common sense that that isn’t right. We must change this government. To use a slightly more ancient words: (and I do not believe if Beck where writing this himself, he would know exactly what I am doing, he would not disagree with how I put it.)

note: And in using ancient words I know modern people don’t pour over their words meanings. It takes effort but it is the only way to condense the meat of this book down. Each sentence has meaning. Thats way Beck uses a 110 page book. But each sentence is a topic in this book. The Ancient text has been change subtlety to produce a great change in meaning. Think peaceful protest.

When in the course of human events,it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another,(the RNC, and the DNC) … and to assume among the Powers of the (US National political parties), the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter … [it],and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness…

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But when a long train of abuses ( namely not the progressive philosophy which empowers the government taking away the republic for which this nation stands, and substitution a progressive socialized democracy. To wit SS, Medicare, Universal Health care, Government control of privite property such as GM CityGroup, WellsFargo, Bank of America, Unions etc, and 3 trillion dollars in spending of other peoples money yours mine and your grandkids to inflate or dollar etc while using taxes and political insidership to control your actions ), it is their right, it is their duty, to …[alter] such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Such has been the patient sufferance of these [people]; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present [progressives, liberals , current republicans and democrats ] is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He leaves to us a list of recommended reading of those facts. But if you listen to his radio program for long enough you won’t be surprised at this list. I have read the first recommended reading part way through and I was shocked at how far the progressives have driven the norm. This post was one page and 2 lines typed . Word count is 665.

Hogwash.   Progressives are big government,  the Nazis were all government so if you look at a scale they are both pretty close to Authoritarianism.  And true conservatism (not  Bush’s or Republicans’)  are not.  Look at the founding fathers,  not authoritarian by any means.       What gets me is that if you want to play the word association game then progressive = socialism.  Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (“German National Socialist Workers’ Party”) From wikipeidia.  and confirmed on another site.   So shall we continue the ad homin attacks.   Your dad was an authoritarian apparently all of his life.   To just change the words a little.

On another note what is wrong with glorifying our troops.   They do kick trash and take names for us.    So one has to protect us.  Now you can argue if Iraq is a protective or not, but nothing is wrong with patriotism.   Something is wrong with useing patriotism to shut down that argument.  Nazis used patriotism to shut down free speech.  Both left and right in this country has come really close to doing that.

Worse the progressives we have now are takeing power from the American people (money = power when there is a trillion dollars involved) and giving it to the G 20, the Big banks, the Chinese.   In fact they are useing debt which enslaves me and if I ever have kids, enslaves them.   Worse they are printing it.   Wienhart republic did that and Nazi’s were the answer.

Jews were vilified to unite the country, they stole the money.   (so what does that make the AIG people, Jews?)  But the real problem was the government mr. Hitler was a war hero.  He was a personality cult.  He was a Barack Obama with a hero background.    This all sounds familiar  .  If I could just change the leftwingnuts adjectives  I could attack anyone….    quote

The one ingredient that the wingnuts are missing is the personality cult. They simply have not found a charismatic figure to build a movement around. There is Ronald Reagan (a.k.a. St. Ronnie), who is good for mytho-historical legend building, but, being that he’s dead, he cannot go out and campaign. What they need is a Barack Obama with a military/war hero background. Alas, the characters they have been trying to sell us have come across as caricatures of what they were supposed to represent.

“What the problem is?”  (that’s a movie reffence) Government being athouritarian, takeing priviate property away.     What is the problem today, the same thing.

Got the Situation. What I don’ t get is him not getting it.

He Said”

“I’m sort of stunned in a way that some people are reacting the way they are about all of this,” Dodd said. “At a time like this, everyone needs to pull in the same direction.”(Sic)

Well at a time like this, with so many ethics violations, and so little understanding of capitalism. And our founding fathers understanding of the role states government vs the Federal, its simple Americans don’t trust our leaderes in this “emergency” economic downturn. We,d rather you did nothing and cut the size of government to lets say half. 1 trillion dollars. And lower taxes cause we don’t have any money ether. Let the banks fail. All of them. Or create a bad bank if you don’t want to do nothing. Anything besides expanding government through a stimulus bill. Creating health care for everyone. Unionizing America. And monetizing the bill to boot. My cash is now worth 1/3 what it use to be based on back of the envelop calculations. I have to spend it now or put it into some sort of liquid asset or its worthless soon. You hear that, I will not unite with you because I do not trust you. When we really need help, I’ll help and trust and work with my neighbors, in a system like socialism if i need to. However I don’t think that would work because the pilgrams tried that.  (and the Russians and Europe and Britain and China)  But nationally trusting you to that roll is insane.  You have no honor when you steal from us and waste the money.  I might as well burn my parents house down to control supply.

Future prediction. Housing is going to get expensive with out the real value changing.(inflation thanks o montizeing ones, and a speical thax to you dood)  The houses will then go down in value not dollars.

No one will buy the expensive houseing. Unless government step in and prints more money. Repeat until we break.

Oh yeah the govenment with  wiretaping, can throw that idea  out the window. Why because they now have direct access to our finances via nationalized banks. He who controls the money and the guns and the laws controls freedom. We don’t trust you. Why will not congress listen to America When we call to say no.

Drill baby drill, where is the drilling to prevent us from spending oursevelves into Slavery to the Saudi’s. Environmental people?

Where is an energy policy. When are you going to can the Social Security program. We can’t afford it. You sold me into slavery with this debt. I wasn’t every going to get it anyway, ever, I SAY NO. I DON”T TRUST YOU CLOWNS.

I will read a 5000 year leap, I will find out how the founders ran this country, I will slowly change this back. Or the country will break from debt.

I going to do my homework so I can get so skills that I can do on a job. We are going to need it.

Student viva la laissez-faire

Because the last president supported a war in 2003 to pound on some like minded indiviuals who believe in useing religon for political gain, to put pressure on Iran and squeeze them.    The progressives protested, and did so load enough, that Iran felt no pressure from a divide USA.   Thus destroying the whole point to the war.   If we can’t have it our way then you get nothing at all mentality. The Psueduo conservitives who increased our deficeits spent way more money than Clinton ever did, had an angry conservitive base and and angry progressive base got pounded out of Congress.  Where as the extreme progressives got voted in.   I give you the dirtbag Pelosi who just past that bill.   Then  Because the New York times endorsed McCain he one the primarys of three states (none of which I am in) and the other states like sheep gave him the nomination.   He was our worst nightmare.    And he was put up against a well spoken popular Senator.   Obama won.   Now   I don’t want to be Euroupe.  I don’t want government programs at the Federal level.   I want troops at the federal level and a tax to pay for them.   I want a State Department.   A deptment of Commerce and Inteior (for the National Parks) sound ok.   Social Security Medicare etc etc etc can be states rights.

Now they pass this bill.   That  destroys what is left of our economy eventually through inflation.   Which might still have federal doctors talking with mine to deny me medical care so as to reduce costs in it.   Which still might force  my state to decouple power generation from sells of power.

So they are takeing over my banks,  my car makers, my power companies,  Because they didn’t like a war, and because we didn’t like spending to much.    Oh yea and they will print up to 10 trillion dollars to fix the problem of  morgages being overleveraged (aka to much money in loans borrowed to bet the people won’t default).    Why did people default, because money was so easy to get through loans.   Who controls the Loans, why its the FED.     So how did they fix the problem.  Make money easier to get by giveing it away.   Notice a circle here with that progressive side effect that they are grabing power.  Control over the banks ,cars , powercompanies,  healthcare,  waterways, airwaves (fairness doctrine), internet (ses previous post on net neutrailty), etc,etc.    One lady claimed that this had gun control in it and sited a HR passage. But since no one had the bill long enough to check it much less protest this before the vote, who knows.   But if it does,  it makes Obama a Liar.   That is if you don’t count the Lobbyist thing.

Obama certainly is not letting this emergency go to waste.  At Least the Patriot act had a sunset.   This bill and tarp keeps going and going.

What is in this monster?   What emergency could be so pressing?   Is there a sunset to any of this?
