Terrorism, Truthers and Theorists – O My!

Who isnt a terrorist these days? Republicans, Democrats, Tea Partiers, Conspiracy theorists…..what next? Christians? Im tired of everyone using the word terrorist to describe people they dont agree with or even ideologies they dont understand. Im tired of being classified along with two people who dont have any value on life and obviously have serious mental issues.

And no matter which network I look at, the message seems clear….Conspiracy theorists are bad. Meanwhile, they use their slick tricks and slanted interviews that dont allow any clarification or are edited heavily.

EXAMPLE:

In this first clip (3 1/2 min), CNN basically states that anyone who has anything to do with a conspiracy theory is a ‘hatriot’  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ixAj5D7YXE

Let me just tell you a few TRUTHS here. First of all, the conspiracy movement did not just start when President Obama became our President. It was around way before that. And to conduct this segment with a banner that says ‘Suicide Warrior’ is just plain wrong. Allowing the misrepresentation of ANY of the conspiracy groups in this manner told me that you just want to point fingers than to do a story about someone who was just plain mentally unstable.

AND HE WAS NOT UNSTABLE BECAUSE OF CONSPIRACY THEORIES

I find it almost funny that Anderson Cooper and John Avlon apparently havent spoken to anyone (like myself) who can present her views clearly and precisely.

It is also odd that EVERYONE in the media wants to slant what the entire 9/11 movement is about….when clearly there are different variances. I consider myself a truther because I have questions about Building 7 and there are no answers and I have questions about why the Commission members now state that they werent given adequate access to investigate thoroughly (as well as other claims). And yes, I have looked at some of the other theories out there, but none of it makes me want to take some sort of ‘revenge’ or ‘coup’ on my government. I just would like some answers.

So, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) sent out this report stating conspiracy theorists are terrorists? And now we have two events where we are being told that the two men were involved in different movements? Sounds like a false flag to me….and Im not even gonna go into the ‘oddities’ surrounding those events.

Over the weekend, Geraldo had Alex Jones as a guest….and surprisingly it wasnt a train wreck. Clearly, the woman who attempted to slam Alex down was not in possession of many facts. She was ‘put in her place’ by Geraldo who explained to her that what Alex said is true. (Golf of Tonkon) This womans attempted attack was another clear cut not willingness to listen and it made her look foolish.

Heres the clip of that:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-XjX00UHkk

Heres a suggestion to the main stream media….How about you conduct interviews fairly for once? If your viewing audience can tell what the interviewers opinion is, youre clearly doing it wrong.

 

Build up – not tear down

Lets be honest…you all know Im conservative. You all have your own opinions on what you think conservative means.
BUT, Ill give you a clue on how THIS conservative feels.

I am disgusted and repulsed about those “fellow” conservatives who feel that just because Obama won the Presidency, they need to “impeach” him.

First of all, how do you impeach someone who hasnt even took their oath of office?

None the less, the election process is done…finished….complete.
No matter who we voted for-we must get behind the one who DID get elected.

This means:

1-Stop calling for him to be impeached
2-Stop saying he is a muslim (most muslims that I know, are proud and wont deny)
3-Stop blaming specific people for the loss
4-Start praying for ALL who got elected
5-Pray harder for those you disagree with
6-Make sure you make your voice heard in a respectful and polite way
7-For my gop friends, instead of tearing each other down, build each other up

Oh, heres another one: STOP SAYING HE IS THE ANTICHRIST!
I wont even start here.

There are even some people who are “hoping” that something bad happens to the President-Elect. Apparently these people are not only racist but anti-American as well. It is never good for a country to have its leader hurt. In this case, there is a possibility of a civil war…and our country cannot afford to be divided at this historic time.

I want to congratulate Barack Obama-the MAN.
He fought the odds.
To my My african american friends, I congratulate you as well. Many of you who were apathetic got involved and are now seeing the fruits of your hard work.

I wish President-Elect Barack Obama well. I will continue to pray for him and his family along with our country. I would hope that those I know would join me.

 

Never Forget

I, like so many others in the USA, will never forget September 11, 2001. Those images are burned into my memory, in the same manner that my g-parents and parents remember Kennedy’s assasination in the 60s.

Back in 2001, I was generally “doin my own thing”. I was working for what is now CCBC-Catonsville as a Database & Records Specialist for their Continuing Education Department under the Dean. (I designed and then trained people how to use the database) I received a call from Frank informing me about the first plane. Of course, EVERYTHING shut down except for the county schools. My mother-in-law (RIP) went and picked up the kids from the elementary and middle school.

I found myself sitting on the couch, riveted – as well as repulsed – by what I was witnessing. As more details came throughout the day, I began to “simmer”. Long story short, I became very active politically. My local political club started a flag waving every day, which continued for several months. It became monthly once daily wavings weren’t possible for many club members.

Now it is 2008 and it has been 7 years that the club has been waving the flag on that overpass. Those who are able to come-show up, and those out of town or working show up when the 11th is on a weekend.

Many who drive by honk or wave. It gives you a sense of one-ness – We are Americans!
There are some however, that apparently do not like seeing our flag…this past month (July) a state police officer stopped and threatened arrest if they didn’t leave because an anonymous complaint was made stating they were in the streets.

First, if you need to remain anonymous you are a coward. None of the club members are in any way violent or abusive. For crying out loud, most of them are older. There is no need to lie and get innocent people threatened with going to jail. How disrespectful of a former Navy captain! Have you NO class at all?

Secondly, are you out of your mind? If you are in America-which Maryland still is- why are you so offended by a few people standing there, holding a flag? If that offends you, let me be the first to say –

GET OUT OF MY COUNTRY!

I am proud to be an American, no matter if our country is — screwing up-at war-disagrees with me on moral issues. This list could go on.

I am also proud to have been: a part of the PVRC- As member, Secretary, Committee Chair or Member, Webmaster. I spent 8 years or so being involved in a club that would choose to show our patriotism in this manner – and I am proud that the “tradition” continues.

Thankfully, nothing like this occurred August 11th. Besides those who were flag waving, the only other person to show up was a reporter – not a cop.  http://www.explorebaltimorecounty.com/community/2244/waves-support-patriotic-display-11th-month/
