It is easy to gripe about Hollywood and the tripe it produces. It takes effort to change that, including your efforts in this cultural struggle.

Let’s see, if you are a big business, you are now considered un-American. If you ‘buy american’ you are considered un-American. If you support the NRA, you are un-American. Taking steps to control Medicaid costs is now considered un-American. Gay marriage is considered un-American. It was un-American for the head of the 0-regime to make a call for ‘duty’ and service’. There are numerous other recent examples of behaviors and attitudes that someone has labelled as being un-American.

The problem is that when you consider the united States as a propositional nation, you run into problems. When this happens, it is not a ‘real’ nation, but only a commitment to an idea. By changing the definition of America to an idea, the meaning often becomes fluid and shifts to meet the needs of the handlers and powers that be. When you define America as a particular geographic place, with a particular culture, such changes in definition are not so easily made. The conservative often still view America as a geographic place with a commitment to Christian values. Progressives view America as a ‘proposition’ that ‘all men are created equal’. With that kind of proposition, the door is open to socialism. They often change what equality means as well. Instead of everyone having equality before the law, now it becomes, equality of opportunity and equality of outcome, equality of income. They want us all to be homogenized into a single unit. By shifting what equality means, they change their focus. and change the ground rules of how society operates.

The latest accusations of being un-American are the latest round in the propaganda wars.

I still chuckle to myself knowing from history that the founding fathers wanted the nation to live off of tariffs only. They also had thriving businesses which consisted of smuggling, gun running and other fun filled activities. There were no currency controls. Each State made their own laws. If you did not like the laws of one State, you moved to another. There were no identity papers, and no passports. The government really could tell people no you can not live in our State and mean it. You could import whatever you wanted, including guns. There was no property tax. You owned your property in perpetuity. You had the mineral rights to your property. Perhaps they knew more about what it meant to be an American than people do now days.

When they say, they believe in America, they are referring to big centralized government, along with the control and policies it brings. They are not referring to an America where a man can do what he wants with his land/home, have the freedom to say what he wants, and being free from government interference. They want an America where the government monitors, censors, controls and watches all that you do along with demanding that you accept that control and do obeisance to it. That is not the same “American values” of the founding fathers that sought trade without government interference, the exercise of free speech without government censorship, the freedom to travel, being free from government officials going through your personal papers and monitoring.

Consider if you will how our sons and daughters have fought in wars to protect “American freedoms”, yet somehow with each war, we end up loosing more liberties at home. With each war, instead of increasing liberties at home, we loose more. These word games have been effective. By using words that we think we know what they are saying, politicians, local leaders, talking heads and pastors have led us astray. They have lulled many Southerners to sleep with the right words, yet what they mean is very different from what we assume.

Rather than fall for their word games, question what they mean by “American values”, “American freedoms”, etc. Rather than accept what they are saying without question, dare to question what they mean before you accept it.

The next time you see a modern statue, consider who it glorifies and what they actually stood for.

Instead of glorifying wickedness, we need to be encouraging honesty, leading principles lives, and lifting up Biblical values.

It says a great deal when a community remains devastated six months after a disaster and the Governor of that State says that the head of the regime fulfilled his promises. My point is that as Texans and Southrons, we will not be able to count on the empire to assist us. It is nice if they do, but it is not to be depended on. When disaster struck my family with Hurricane Ike, I saw first hand who was there to assist and who was not. The Texas company HEB along with Anheiser Bush had trucks of supplies on the scene pronto. The empire…well, let’s say that they took their time. They did come through, but it often involved red tape, long waits and wanting to take control. I have seen federal assistance and local assistance in response to disasters.

Instead of being frustrated waiting for promises that are delayed or never come through, communities need self-reliance and mutual assistance.

To me, this is lopsided relationship. One party goes all the giving and the other (the fedgov) maligns, and misuses the giving party. If this were a human relationship, they would call this abuse. If it was up to me, I would have the SBC remove the banner from any place of honor. I would not fly its banner in front of the houses of worship. If it was flown it would be in a subservient position to the Christian banner. Alas, I do not see changes coming. Many SBC churches will likely conform with the message they send with the display of the empire’s banner and the Christan banner being subservient to its position. They will likely submit to Cesare with more than he asks, giving their money, children, sanity, loyalty and spiritual discernment to the care of the empire. Like an abused spouse, they will be used and abused by the empire rather than return to their first love.

We need to pray for our churches and our people.

What all this confusion makes clear is that this regime is ….incompetent when it comes to dealing with threats. They can not protect the nation from threats, they do not know who the real enemy is and do not want to acknowledge the threat of Mohammedism. They have bent over backwards to kowtow to CAIR and the Saudi government and those entities turn around and attack the sovereignty of the States and communities.

Instead of such confusion, we need a government that does its job. Presently, the regime is too busy trying to open the borders and find new ways to use the sequester cuts to mess up the daily operations while preserving their own revenue than to do their job. Rather than defend the Constitution, they are trying to redefine it and weasel around it.

We need liberty!

Bear in mind, that the government took over the Fort Hood terrorist attack situation and we still do not have closure on that. Now we are going to trust the same government leadership that gave us Benghazi (where the survivors have still not been allowed to talk) will now take care of Boston? There is something odd about the way things are going. I am not advancing any particular theory other than this situation does not smell right and when canned speeches are being used, we are attending a scripted event.

Instead of government dog and pony shows, we need accountability. We need a leadership that holds people accountable rather than deporting them. For this regime to deport anyone takes on special significance. They wont even deport criminal immigrants, but now they want to deport this ‘person of interest’! This does not fit any logical pattern.

The ineptitude of this regime is clear.

The liberal media is making it clear that they are looking for a Southern or conservative scapegoat on which to brandish all the blame for the ills of the nation. The Yankees have a long history of using the South as their whipping boys. This latest incident is just the latest example of how low they are willing to go, even to the point of stretching history to fit their perceptions. When they bend and distort Texas history, it is always a sore subject. The bottom line is that they lie, they distort the facts and when they are on a witch hunt, they make it obvious. It is also obvious that the media is not a friend of the South, conservatives or Texas.

Instead of lies and distortions, we need honest reporting.
