U.S. Soldier's "The True American Patriots"

2011-08-20T17:44:00.000-07:00

Who else do you know that volunteers to put their lives on the line, sacrifice all of themselves and everyone and everything they hold dear to go to another country to fight for all of us?

They don't care if the guy that fights next to them is of a different race, religion or political status. All they care about is they are on their side.

I think some people need to learn from that. They are all united and working together for the same cause.

They endure the weather, unbearable sleeping and living conditions, limited food choices and I am sure many scary days and nights.

They only pray they live through it and get to come home again. Those of us who have never lived the life of a US Soldier can only imagine the horror.

They each have a calling to join our military and nothing you can say to them will ever convince them otherwise.

My wonderful father was a veteran of WWII. I miss him every day. And now my son is getting ready to go into the Marines.

I know I have to let him go as it too is his calling. But I can only pray that he too will come home again.

For all of those who have served, you are a true American Patriot. You are God's blessings to all o f us! Thank you for your unconditional sacrifice.

Do you have a military story to tell?

If so, email to theamericanpatriotnewspaper@yahoo.com

Why is it that nearly 10% of those who are working are paying 70% of the taxes? And 50% of Americans pay no taxes?

Nearly 40% percent of American's pay 30% of the tax bill, but you are wanting those who earn over $150,000 to pay more??? I certainly hope you are including yourself in that. How can you justify those who pay 70% in taxes needing to pay more?

The Clinton Administration spent over $500 million a day. Bush over 1.6 billion a day. You have spent over $4 billion a day. And yet you continuously smack on Bush. You have a lot of nerve.

During your entire Administration you have shown no remorse for the American people, cutting spending or even bothered to put together a yearly budget. All we have heard are excuses and lies.

Do you know the difference between an income statement and balance sheet and how they are used?

Get your priorities straight. Why are our troops not securing the borders of Mexico?

I do believe you have failed as our leader. You, your staff, your accountants and your family should be removed

from the White House, as you obviously don't know how to do anything except spend the hard earned money of the American people. And we are all tired of it.

The American people put you in office and together we will take you out...Being President is an honor and a priviledge that you have been entrusted with and those who voted for you made a terrible mistake. I certainly hope they don't make that mistake again come election day...

God Bless America!

My Politics

I am a Jeffersonian and an anti Federalist, I am also a devout advocate and supporter of the principles and laws set forth in our Constitution by our founding fathers primarily Thomas Jefferson. By that I mean that I am strongly opposed to a centralized big government. I am totally committed to the restoration of full sovereignty rights to all states of the Union. I deem it absolutely vital and crucial to reduce the present size and power of our government by no less then 60%, if we are to once and for all extinguish the threat of oppression and totalitarianism from ever taking root in America. For it is the people NOT! the government who are the true power and rulers of our country, and it is the government who are subjects to the people and NOT the other way around. I also believe that we must dissolve the executive powers of the President, and transfer all over to Congress as it was before on September 5, 1774 . The presidential office has become an office of almost unlimited powers, and ...WILL!. very soon become an office for life. I would like to quote a passage made by Thomas Jefferson when he reflected his concerns regarding the Presidential office, and the dangers this office poses to our beloved Republic and our way of government:

...................................................................................................................................................................................

Thomas Jefferson to John Adams,

1787. ME 6:370

"[The] President seems a bad edition of a Polish King. He may be elected from four years to four years, for life. Reason and experience prove to us, that a chief magistrate, so continual, is an office for life. When one or two generations shall have proved that this is an office for life, it becomes, on every occasion, worthy of intrigue, of bribery, of force, and even of foreign interference. It will be of great consequence to France and England to have America governed by a Galloman or Angloman. Once in office, and possessing the military force of the Union, without the aid or check of a council, he would not be easily dethroned, even if the people could be induced to withdraw their votes from him. I wish that at the end of the four years, they had made him forever ineligible a second time."

Our Domestic Enemies

2011-07-28T12:16:00.000-07:00

Now lets address perhaps our countries most dangerous enemy. THE TRAITOR AMONGST US! This is by far the most vial, dangerous and the most evil. He or she, like a parasite lives off others. He or she creates nothing, contributes nothing to the community in which they reside. All they do is take and take, they have no sense of loyalty or devotion to anyone or to anything except themself, they know no country borders or boundries. They have no soul and will sell their country, friends, and even their family for their own personal gain. Rather it be financial, personal advancement or political power they will do anything to achieve their agenda.

It is these parasites which have contributed to the collapse and alienation of civilizations throughout history. It is due to these parasites that our beloved America is facing the very serious crisies that she is encountering today.

In the words of Marcus Tullius Cicero where he stated the following:

A Nation can survive its fools and even ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor, he speaks in accents familiar to his victim, and wears their face and their arguements. He appeals to the baseness that lies in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city. He infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. A traitor is the plague.

America's Enemies

2011-07-28T10:20:00.000-07:00

Let's face it. We have many enemies...We are being attacked by two fronts and by two different kinds of foe. The first one is foreign (from the outside) and the second is domestic (from within). As far as the foreign enemies as everyone knows we have been fighting the war on terrorism for years, but what many believe is that we are fighting against Islam. But it is not the true Islamic people or the Islam of the prophet Muhammad. No what we are fighting is a certain group within the Islamic faith, not Islam itself. A true Muslim would respect the beliefs and ideologies of other people and their religeons. They are truly spiritual and peaceful people. We have a group within Iran (radicals) who use Islam as their shield for their greed and personal gain. Muslims believe in all the Christian and Jewish prophets such as Moses, Abraham and Daniel. And although they do not believe that Jesus was the son of God, but merely a very important prophet. So therefore, a true Muslim would never wish to harm others.

In 628 AD, a delegation from St. Catherine's Monastery came to Prophet Muhammad and requested his protection. He responded by granting them a charter of rights, which I reproduced below in its entirety. St.Catherine's Monastery is located at the foot of Mt. Sinai and is the world's oldest monastery. It possesses a huge collection of Christian Manuscripts (second only to the Vatican) and is a world heritage site. It also boasts the oldest collection of Christian icons. It is a treasure house of Christian history that has remained safe for over 1,400 years under Muslim protection.

This is a message from Muhammad Abdullah, as a covenant to those who adopt Christianity, near and far, we are with them. Verily I, the servants, the helpers and my followers, defend them, because Christains are my citizens, and by Allah! I hold out against anything that displeases them. No compulsion is to be on them.

Neither are their judges to be removed from their jobs or their monks from their monasteries. No one is to destroy a house of their religeon, damage it or to carry anything from it to Muslim houses. Should anyone take any of these, he would spoil God's covenant and disobey his Prophet. Verily they are my allies and have my secure charter against all that they hate. No one is to force them to travel or to oblige them to fight. The Muslims are to fight for them. If a female christain is married to a Muslim, it is not to take place without her approval. She is not to be prevented from visiting the church to pray. Their churches are to be respected.

They are neither to be prevented from repairing them nor the sacredness of their covenants. No one of the nation (Muslims) is to disobey the covenants until the last day. "End of the World"

So therefore, we are not being attacked by Islam, but rather radicals within.

Tracy J Allen - A Child's Cry

I am writing this in regard to children everywhere who are crying out for our help. There are innocent children all over the world being victimized. What are we doing about it? The news is always telling us about those children who are being kidnapped, raped, and killed. What about the children we don't hear about?

It is amazing to me that this kind of thing goes on. Children are the innocence of the world. They are the new beginning, the present and the future of the world. They don't ask much, only to be fed, sheltered, clothed and protected. Why is that so difficult for some people?

You hear about parents who abuse their children. I ask you, "What could a child possibly do that is so horrible that you could even find it inside yourself to do such a thing?"

When I look at a child, I see the purity, love and kindness in the world. They reach out their little hand for guidance from us to teach them. They count on us to catch them when they fall, clean them up when they are dirty, feed them when they are hungry and lay our life on the line for them to keep the demons away.

Think about the children that are being abused right now, this very minute, that no one is aware of. They are locked in a closet, scared and starving. Then, while their insides are in knots and they are about to pass out from the torment they have somehow survived from, the angry abusive person comes back and starts hurting them again. "Why?"

They lie there crying inside, wondering what they did to make their mom, dad, uncle, sister, brother, friend or that stranger so mad at them. They promise never to do anything bad again, but their promises are unheard and the tormenting, starts all over again. I can't imagine what goes on in the mind of an abused child. They haven't lived a long enough life to even know the evils of the world. So, they continue to live in their own private nightmare.

I beg of everyone to keep their eyes and ears open. Watch your neighbors, friends, and family members. If something doesn't feel right in your gut, check it out. Our instincts guide us, and chances are they are right. Millions of children are silently praying for our help all over the world. We can't continue to ignore the urgency of this terrible crime.

Parents, if you need help, get it! Don't let your children suffer for your mental illness. If you think you have the demon inside that could ever take over and hurt your children, get them out of your house. Give them to someone who will care for them. If you have no one, take them to the nearest Police Department and drop them off. Don't allow your children to become a victim at your own hand.

Children don't have the privilege of choosing who their parents are, but parents have the responsibility to protect them. Even if you are the one they need protecting from.

Arizona Shootings

2011-01-12T08:42:00.000-08:00

This was a terrible tragedy. We can not understand what goes on in
others minds. We can only pray that justice is served. To all the families,
friends and victims, we must say a prayer.

God is there for you. Just reach out to his loving arms. He will
hold you, strengthen you, protect and guide you in order to help you
move forward.

All my love and prayers are with each of you in your time of need.

Americas Hope

2010-12-28T01:10:00.000-08:00

For years we have been living in a land of uncertainty.
Our government has proven they can't be trusted. They
make promises in order to get elected and never fulfill
them.

Finally, we have some hope. John Boehner is a proven
leader, a man of dignity, and above all, a man of his word.

There is no doubt his heart is in the right place. His heartfelt
tears tell it all. I have never seen anyone in our government
ever show such love and compassion. Some may say that a
man who cries is weak, I disagree, I think a man who cries
has a beautiful soul.

For the first time in many years, I feel hope that America and its
Americans have a strong Republican leader who is committed to
the job.

He has his heart, his values, as well as his mind focused on the task at
hand. I have no doubt that he is the perfect man for the job. He has
all the qualities to move us forward. He stands up, he stands proud
and he speaks out for our America.

His beliefs of Constitution and the Bill of Rights, Capitalism and
Freedom is what our America was based on. He is leading the
Republicans and the Tea Party in the direction to save America.

It is time for all Americans to get involved. Yes, we can say that
our Democratic Leadership has failed us, but we as Americans have
failed too. We should have kept a closer eye on our government and
put a stop to their reckless spending and bad decisions, long ago.

But rest assured, it is not to late. We are down, but we are not out.
By everyone pulling together and fighting the fight, America will
prevail! After all, we have a strong man, with a solid agenda, who
actually cares.

God Bless America!

US Taxes and Budget

2010-12-26T23:04:00.000-08:00

I have several people in my life that are huge
influences to me. Among them, are some very
smart and talented individuals. I listen to their
amazing insights, some things, I agree with,
and some things I don't. Then I form my own
opinion, as to how I feel about things.

I have been following politics most of my life.
And in listening to the different views of others,
here are some very insightful solutions to a
couple of the problems our country and our
people are facing today.

Re: Taxes
We should initiate a Flat Tax for everyone.

Example: The State of Kentucky pays over 250
different taxes. Instead of this, everyone in the
country pays the same amount of tax percentage.
That way there are no surprises.

Example: If the rate is set at 10%.
You take your total gross income for the
year and pay 10% of whatever you make
to the IRS.

Gross: $100,000.00 You Pay: $10,000.00
Gross: $ 30,000.00 You Pay: $ 3,000.00

As far as the Budget:

We add an amendment to the Constitution.
This forces Congress to get it done and be
held accountable.

Therefore, if they don't comply they will
be arrested. Real Simple.

Should Children of Illegal Immigrants Automatically Become US Citizens?

2010-12-26T18:15:00.000-08:00

I say no!

Everyone coming into this country is welcome, as
long as they take the necessary steps to become
legal tax paying citizens. No one should get a free
ride.

Americans work hard and pay taxes. If you wish
to become and American citizen, you must follow
the rules.

Children born of illegal immigrants, should not be
given automatic citizenship. That would cause more
and more illegal immigrants to cross the border, and
have their children. Duh!

I feel for anyone who longs to be free and live in
America. I have been fortunate enough to have
been born here. If I lived in Mexico, I too would
do anything to get out. The people live in total
poverty. Woman and children, are raped and
beaten. And often shipped out for prostitution
and even killed.

But if I was to go into another country, I would not
expect to become an automatic citizen. There are rules
that we all need to abide by.

2010-12-26T17:49:00.000-08:00

With the Democrats losing control of the House in January.
The Republican's will initiate their agenda of their Pledge
to America. They laid out a plan to cut spending and reduce
the size of government by: cancelling unspent stimulus funds,
cutting government spending to pre-stimulus, pre-bailout
levels, establishing a hard cap on new discretionary spending,
cutting Congress' budget and holding weekly votes on spending
cuts. On January 5th, the new majority will begin moving forward
to delivery their pledge.

God Bless America!
