Should We Put America On Cruz Control?

A few days ago, Senator Ted Cruz made a stand (literally, a stand--over twenty-one hours) against the elites in Washington. Though his lengthy speech was ostensibly about Obamacare, Cruz spent a lot of time warning his fellow senators (the few who were actually present) that the American people were tired of elected officials who did not listen to the voice of the people.

Though Cruz certainly had his political future in mind when he orchestrated his "non-filibuster", his words seemed honest and heartfelt. Could it be that a leader is emerging who has the best interests of the people in mind? We have long pined for such a person; God knows, our choices in the last several elections have been dismal, at best. With the possible exceptions of Rand Paul and Mike Lee, Ted Cruz seems to be the only person in Washington right now who might actually be able to pull the sword from the proverbial stone.

To be sure, Americans have grown cynical and skeptical of all politicians. Those of us who keep traditional values and favor the Constitution have all but given up on reclaiming our country from the progressive elite. We bicker amongst ourselves, as no one seems to know which path we should take.

And suddenly, there is hope. Conservatives are fragmented, and we need a leader to come forward, someone who could unite and energize the base. Could it be that we have found such a person in Ted Cruz? Is the Senator from Texas up to the task?

It's early, but he seems to be. More importantly, he seems to be willing to accept the mantle. He's intelligent, uncompromising, and unwilling to let himself be dragged into the usual political mudslinging. He tells the truth and lets the facts speak for themselves.

In other words, he's a liberal's worst nightmare.

Will Cruz emerge as a forerunner for the face of the new conservative movement? Or will the combined efforts of the liberals and the Old Republican Guard keep him silenced? One thing's for sure: if you like Cruz, you need to be vocal about it.

Without the support of patriots nationwide, Cruz's voice will be muffled by those who fear his message. And then we'll be stuck with McCain and McConnell.

Syria: The Beginning of the New World Order?

Most sane people believe that attacking Syria makes no sense. As Wyatt Earp said in the movie Tombstone, "I ain't gonna fight you. There's no money in it."

But Is that true? Is there money in it after all? Could Syria be just what the bankers and global elitists have been waiting for?

Possibly.

Consider this: if it's true that there is a faction bent on a One-World-Government, what would have to happen in order to subjugate all of the world's nations to bow to the will of their new masters?

Global war, the likes of which have heretofore never been seen. And, to be more specific, a global war with no clear victors.

After WWII, the Allies, especially the United States and Russia (USSR), grew into prosperous superpowers. But what if there had been no real winners? What if the Allies and Axis had fought to a bloody standstill, each side hammering at each other until no one had the energy or resources to continue? Who would have come along and restored order?

Back then, there was probably no one. But, rest assured, there are people today with the power and money to do just that. If everyone is beaten down, hurting, starving...they will gladly flock to these new "saviors" to put an end to their misery.

The battered nations will have little choice but to relinquish their sovereignty to this new group. The rich bankers finance the reconstruction, thus taking the deed to each country, along with its citizens.

It's a scary thought. But could it possibly be true?

More than ever, stay vigilant.

Will Obama Defy Congress?

The polls are in. An overwhelming majority of American citizens oppose any kind of military action against Syria. The reasons are varied and valid. We don't want to help Al-Qaeda. We don't feel military action is justified since Syria has not shown aggression toward us. And we're not even sure who used the poison gas--the Syrian government or the Rebels.

The will of the people, however, could be a moot point when it comes to President Obama and his administration. Already, there a mumblings within the Obama camp that the President may go ahead with his planned military action regardless of whether or not he gets congressional approval.

Should Obama get approval from Congress? Most definitely. Does he have to?

According to The War Powers Resolution of 1973, he probably does. However, past presidents, including Clinton, have violated the act with little or no consequences. Why, then, should Obama fear doing the same?

Probably because when Clinton bombed Kosovo, he wasn't facing the stiff disapproval that Obama now faces. Clinton's philosophy was that it was easier to beg forgiveness than to ask permission. Obama is asking permission first, then plans to do what he wants anyway. Congress will be furious at being ignored, and the American people will call for impeachment.

Which is all well and good. But suppose these "limited strikes" result in a rapidly expanding conflict, will we have the time or attention to punish the President? If Iran attacks Israel, which in turn attacks Iran and Syria, and then Russia gets involved, it's going to get really messy really fast.

Make no mistake. There is a hidden agenda here, and it is not to punish Assad for a gas attack. The elitists in government are chomping at the bit to turn the Middle East into a barroom brawl. Just what their real interests are, however, remain hidden.

The sad part is, it may take the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people before we find out.

"The Citizen" Now Available at Amazon

I watch the news. I yell at the TV a lot. I bitch on Twitter. My congressmen know me by name. In other words, I'm pretty politically active, and I don't like the way things are going.

Somehow, in between all of this, I also write. In fact, my new novel The Citizen is now available at Amazon. I put a lot of sweat into it, and I think it's a pretty good book. If you like conspiracy theory stuff, I think it'll be right up your alley. I'll post the link at the end if you're interested.

I had to do a lot of research while writing the novel. I researched Common Core. I saw how this seemingly benign program can be used to track a child from the time they enter school, gathering a copious amount of information on them. The end result, of course, would be that the government could assign a person a specific job based on their grades and aptitude.

I researched the 9/11 attacks intensively. If you haven't, you ought to. The discrepancies are mind-blowing. A good documentary to watch is In Plane Sight. It's currently available on Netflix.

I researched the deaths of Breitbart, Michael Hastings, and Phillip Marshall. I looked at everything I could find about the Christopher Dorner case. I'm not the most hardcore conspiracy theorist around, but this stuff will make you think.

Most of my research revolved around the New World Order, since it is a central theme in the book. Folks, this stuff is happening now, right under our noses. And it's not a new thing. An argument could be made that the events happening today were set in motion at the end of WWII.

They say knowledge is power, and I believe they're right. Too many Americans bury their heads in the sand, content to turn a blind eye to the truth as long as the checks keep coming in the mail and the TV networks keep churning out mindless reality shows.

But true Patriots refuse to be blinded. These people deserve our support, for theirs is not an easy path. The powers-that-be call them wackos and nutjobs. But that is because those powers fear a true Patriot. They fear that the truth will be spread. The fear for their lofty positions.

Anyway, dig for yourself. You may be surprised what you find.
