Are you a Sheeple?

Picture of Sheep Pictures

unless we can wake up we will continue down the road of the government's destiny. we won't live out our destiny.  we americans, those of us that inhabit this land, whether you were born here, ran across the border, flew in with all the proper documents, we are all going to follow a destiny that is not our own.  "we the people", the preamble points out that we have the power, we are the country.  yet, we sit back and bicker amongst ourselves as to whether we should support obama, clinton, edwards or some other person  to lead us.  take the red pill and wake up to see things as they really are.  the constitution was designed to restrain the influence of the government, not to allow the government to rule by.  How many of you viewed the constitution as a ruling instrument of the government?  How many of you realize that the patriot act is eroding that restraint on the goverment?  just look around you and see whats happening.  aRe any of the candidates really addressing the economy? the real id? you better mind your mind.

While you get lulled to sleep by Barak and Hillary, they slip the national ID right under your nose!

Democratic Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois announced Tuesday that he has formed a presidential exploratory committee. Party strategists don't see Obama's race as a campaign factor.Hogwash! Just plain hogwash! This dribble, this low life tact the media is taking, by forcing this issue of race between Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama. But, the most disheartening thing is people are falling for the crap. Why is it so hard to think for yourselves? Why is it so hard to listen to what is being said when it’s right in your ears? Black radio talk show host are fanning the flames of this racial debate. Now, lets look at what was actually said. Sen. Obama in response to Sen. Clinton’s accusation that speeches alone are not enough to create change …” “ President Kennedy didn't look at the moon and decide getting there would be a false hope, and Martin Luther King didn't decide segregation couldn't end. "If anything crystalized what this campaign is about, it was that right there,"

There is nothing here where I can see that Sen. Obama compares himself to either Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King or President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. It appears to me, that he was only saying they didn’t stop at their great speeches, but went on to put into action what they spoke about. I presume he’ll put into action what he is speaking about.

Democratic presidential hopeful, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., left, reacts with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, center, and daughter, Chelsea at her Democratic primary election night victory rally in Manchester, N.H., Tuesday, Jan. 8, 2008.Former President Bill Clinton, defending his wife, okay, campaigning for his wife at Dartmouth College had this to say…”

"It is wrong that Senator Obama got to go through 15 debates trumpeting his superior judgment and how he had been against the war in every year, enumerating the years, and never got asked one time — not once, ‘Well, how could you say that when you said in 2004 you didn’t know how you would have voted on the resolution? You said in 2004 there was no difference between you and George Bush on the war. And you took that speech you’re now running on off your Web site in 2004. And there’s no difference in your voting record and Hillary’s ever since.’

“Give me a break. This whole thing is the biggest fairytale I’ve ever seen."

No where in this remark do I see where the former president said that Sen. Obama’s campaign is a “fairytale.” So, why are people responding to the lie that Fmr. President Clinton called Sen. Obama’s campaign a fairytale? Why do you allow others to tell you what is true or not, and  shy do you continue to be motivated by lies?

Lastly, Sen. Clinton did say that Sen. Obama compared himself to former President Kennedy and Rev. Martin Luther King, which when we read the previous quote by Sen. Obama this statement by Sen. Clinton is misleading. However, the venom that followed, was concerning this statement in the same speech by Sen. Clinton…” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. led a movement. He was gassed. He was beaten. He was jailed. And he gave a speech that was one of the most beautifully, profoundly important speeches ever delivered in America, the ‘I Have a Dream’ speech.
“And then he worked with President Johnson to get the civil rights laws passed, because the dream couldn’t be realized until it was finally, it was legally permissible for people of all colors and backgrounds and races and ethnicities to be accepted as citizens..”

From this statement are we to infer something racist? Is it not a fact that the president of the United States is the only person at that time that could have made the Voting Rights Act a law? If let the reactions of Bob Johnson former owner of BET, Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina and Donna Brazile, political strategist control your thinking then you will hear and see racism in Sen. Clinton's speech. With all this venom being thrown at the Clinton campaign by Black radio talk show host and their callers, it gives the impression Sen. Obama's skills as a candidate are not enough and that somehow to demean the Clinton campaign is a boost for the Obama campaign, this  is childish and politically immature. In the end, when whomever is nominated their campaign team, strategist and so forth will be wheeling, dealing, begging and crying for the former candidates' endorsements.

While you’re being overdosed by the flood of election politricks, your government is sneaking the Real ID, which is nothing but a national identification card right past you. How many times have you seen this on the nightly news????

Why do you need a savior?

 

I'm here because somebody marched. I'm here because you all sacrificed for me. I stand on the shoulders of giants. I thank the Moses generation; but we've got to remember, now, that Joshua still had a job to do. As great as Moses was, despite all that he did, leading a people out of bondage, he didn't cross over the river to see the Promised Land. God told him your job is done. You'll see it. You'll be at the mountain top and you can see what I've promised. What I've promised to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob. You will see that I've fulfilled that promise but you won't go there . Sen. Barak Obama, Brown Chapel March 04, 2007.

Its time we break the “Savior syndrome.” Seeking for the "One", opens doors of exploitation, lies and deceit. As long as we seek and look for the “One” to save us, we’ll continue to be the servants to those that save us. I’m not looking for a savior, I’m not interested in a Joshua. I am looking for a truth speaker. Few of the candidates are speaking out on the truth.  Barak Obama says he will create a “Making Work Pay” tax credit of up to $500 for an individual or $1000 for a family, and that, this will eliminate completely income taxes for 10 million Americans. I think if we look back at the IRS’s beginnings, to see who or what organizations benefit from Federal income taxes then you’ll find why this is a noble idea but will never be implemented. When you seek for the “One” to lead you, you open yourselves up for deceit, lies and exploitation. Don’t you think it’s our ignorance of the system that lays us open to be deceived.

John Edwards, told a bold face LIE, on the stage during Saturday’s debate. He said, he, John McCain and Edward Kennedy passed the Patient’s Bill of Rights, when in fact he only passed through the Senate never passing through Congress and the bill died right there, there is no Patient’s Bill of Rights! Open for deception. Do you wonder why the advocates for change as they have called themselves refuse to talk to us about how they will correct the recession we will be fully enveloped into when they take office? Much less, even mention that there is a recession. Are the agents of change playing solely on our emotions?

The agents of change are pandering to the “young” voters. This group of Americans, represent the children of corporate mental brainwashing and mediocrity. So, the packaged images by some of the candidates for president are right in line with their way of life. A lot of glitz and glamour and little substance.

Preparing the way

Rise ye mighty people-Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey

 

Revolution starts within. It begins from the inside. There is constant revolutionary chatter about getting your own something, yet those that espouse this idea will often denounce others that are getting things. Getting or acquiring things is not the issue. The love and desire of the thing is the problem. The idea of things as a panacea for one’s ills would be the restraining tether that retards growth. However, those that aspire to “get your/their own” land, language, state, island, government, house, etc… are truly aspiring for “some-thing” as well. But, the revolution begins inside. Why then, are the voices of “revolution” continuing to cry in the wilderness for that “some-thing” they deem worthy of attaining? Has the truth of revolution, beginning inside been dismissed? Is it overlooked? Or, just plain ignored? Are they saying that we should gain our own land, state, nation, language, or whatever without making positive internal changes? Maybe they believe the positive internal changes cannot be made while living under oppressive conditions. If the latter is case, then their sense of history is distorted. There is no historical basis that we cannot make positive changes under some of the worst possible conditions. Those in this way of thinking confess with their mouths that we are a great people that built the pyramids but, they truly don’t believe this.

Under the conditions of slavery or the overall conditions surrounding slavery (it’s ignorance to believe all Black people were enslaved) we produced millionaires, physical revolutionaries, teachers, lawyers, physicians and great religious and political leaders. How then, can we believe we cannot produce the positive internal changes needed to sustain our own land, language, state, nation while living under the oppressive conditions of today? To talk revolution without talking of building good character, without talking of working on cleaning our internal houses, without screaming to the people about cleaning the house, yard and street in front of the house or apartment they are living in at this minute are just inveigling the people with aspirations of grandeur without a basic foundation. They are the people that will build their house on the sand.
