Time to get Political

>>>>Be Warned!<<<<

Ardent political view expressed below...

If you think the Country is going the right way- do not read...

If you think Mr. Obama is Deity on earth- do not read...

If you think socialism is the way to go- Please do not read...

...because you WILL be offended.

A friend of mine made the comment the other day that he thought I went to Ecuador to do a “walk about”. A walk about? Me? Not really.

You remember that guy from down under who said the line “Come on down to Australia and we’ll throw another shrimp on the barb’y for ya”. Paul Hogen, aka Crocodile Dundee is his name and he made a couple of movie that made the term “walk about” famous.

I suppose a walk about means to aimlessly go some place and tour around with no real objectives or plan, perhaps when you go on a walk about you are trying to learn more about yourself than anything at least that is my interpretation of the term.

If that is what it is intended to mean then nothing could be farther from the truth in my case.I’m here for several reasons and nothing about this trip is aimless, I have objectives and I certainly know who I am. So, a walk about is not accurate and my buddy is mistaken. (I still love ya Scott!)

I came on this trip because of what is going on back home. Maybe you missed it but our Republic is changing right before our eyes.

“We the People” now own a majority share of General Motors, a once PRIVATE all be it publicly owne company. How could this happen? And the President of the United States of America can somehow fire the CEO?

Watch this video regarding your Government taking over GM: http://tinyurl.com/kmggu3

Big banks have been handed our money with no accountability; go ahead request an accounting for where the money went from the Fed (Federal Reserve) and see how your request is handled.Prepare to be ignored.

If the Gov is running a little short of cash they will just print more right?

I will never be accused of being a great scholar but what happens when you print money that is basically worthless? Oh yeah, you will probably experience something called hyperinflation.Even I remember from Mr. Wells World History class at Mesa High, home of the bad A Jackrabbits, the photo of the woman with the wheel barrow full of money heading to the bakery to buy a loaf of bread. That’s where we are headed, better stock up on wheel borrows while you can.

This whole health care “debate” is unbelievable. The Government wants to take over health care? What the heck? Our Government couldn’t pour water out of a boot with the directions written on the heel! And they want to take over the health care system? Have you read what is contained in the Bill they want to pass? Probably not, if you are like most.

Oh yes, and the Department of Homeland Security wants to keep an eye on folks who own guns, believe in God and are dissatisfied with “Our Dear Leader”. According to DHS these types of folks should be considered extremists and not just extremists but “Right wing extremists”, the most EV-IL sort of extremist.

I could go on but maybe my reasoning for concern is a little clearer to you by now.

Maybe you think me a crank, thats OK. Maybe all is well in your happy place but maybe YOU have fallen asleep because you don’t feel like you are affected; don't worry, you will feel it soon enough.

Anyway, now that my blood pressure is at dangerously high levels I will calm down and explain why I came on this trip.

Basically, I wanted a palace to go to that I felt my family and I could escape the wholesale destruction of what once was the greatest County in the World.

Guess what? I'm not alone.

I have met at least 3 couples who feel the same way that I do in my travels here in Ecuador, they are looking for a place to weather the storm as it were. If I have met 3 couples sofar, could there be more? You bet! Lots of them.

The USA may still be the greatest but Mr. Obama is hell bent to see it no longer is; this the Country whose Constitution was inspired by God Himself and the Country which been the economic engine that has fought for and funded freedom and democracy around the word.

We are being cut off at the knees and will be paying taxes at levels that will reduce us to mere servents of the state. Just ask out friends in England how it feels to pay the kind of taxes they are now paying. Now, there is some change that you may not have counted on if you voted for B.O..

I wanted a place to run and hide with my family while trying to maintain some or most of those basic freedoms.

A place where arbitrary laws written by boneheaded bureaucrats/politicians based on junk science (Note: vague reference to Global Warming here) would not get in the way of living one’s life to its fullest and highest potential a place where political machinations’ by evil men would not exist. (Look up “machinations” it’s a good word to know these days)

Does this place exist?

Well frankly, NO.

There is no place that is a utopia, not yet anyway but I thought even with all its warts, it's left leaning President and the murderous revolutionary Che Guevara loving people, (not all ecuadorians like Che but enough of them do) Ecuador might be as close as it gets. (Che Guevara, the guy’s image you see wearing a beret, usually warn on T-shirts by miss-guided Idiots)

So, what have I discovered?

That my friend is the rest of the “Why did I come to Ecuador” story, stay tuned and stand up for Freedom!

P.S. I have recently learned the Ted Kennedy has left this mortal realm. At this time of remembrance of the life of Mr. Kennedy I would just like to take note and say: “This is the best thing he has ever done.” Adieu, Chappaquiddick Ted, Adieu. Che, Murderous Revolutionary>>>
