...”God willing, sanity will someday return to America
**********
Not until something really bad happens in the country that necessitates a return to sanity. Most likely an economic collapse, but other equally dire possibilities abound.”...
The past shows us that disease can change the course of history.
BTTT
God bless you, Jim. You are a true patriot.
They rang the Bells for Homo’s at the National Cathedral.
Unfrigginbelievable.
Is there a problem? Not aware of a shift in kook traffic, but then, I only post snarky replies.
Seriously, keep taking my monthly and, if things go south, I’ll meet y’all at the barricades or the concentration camps.
I agree with that. Of course, if I had been wiser I would have recognized our current position from a few of the reamings I got during Basic Training, to wit: you don't have any Constitutional rights! You lost them when you signed up for the Army!
Such institutionalized disrespect of the object you are sworn to uphold cannot lead to good; and indeed that mentality has spread into the whole of the federal government… the same FedGov that keeps asserting that everyone and everything is under its jurisdiction.
Why?
The Episcopalians elected a queer as their leader!
He openly stands in front of people and celebrates his queerness. He has a "partner".
BUT, God will not be mocked. He will just let the rest of the country go to HELL!
Oh wait. We are already on the way!
(disclaimer: I moved to the Philippines in February. I can't stand the way my country has fallen, thanks to the queers and the likes of the Obamatons!)
How is it there?
What is the best way to find out without traveling there?
Perhaps it would be good to take a vacation there and look around.
Are there any jobs to be had?
May God continue to bless and protect you, your family and this website.
A revolution has been taking place. We simply need to fight back harder and more effectively.
I will give up the fight when I draw my last breath.
Thank you for this site Jim.
Jn 3:17 answers that, I think.
I don’t act in order to solicit the approval of others. There is no critic harsher than myself of myself. And I’m pretty much unconcerned about your beliefs other than I hope they make you happy.
” I got during Basic Training, to wit: “you don’t have any Constitutional rights! You lost them when you signed up for the Army!”
All I remember from Basic Training is “Drop and give me 10” and “We don’t walk we Run” seems like it was all up hill going and up hill getting back.
You do have a point and I think a Smaller Government would help. Get rid of the IRS, DHS, and most of the three letter
departments.
No. The best way to see the country is to come here. If you have some money, you can "partner" with a Filipino and start a business, but the main export from here is OFW's (offshore foreign workers). Philippine law makes it difficult to compete with the Filipinos for jobs.
Cebu just made it to the top of the retirement places to live...
I live in Ormoc City, Leyte, and rent a modern 5 bedroom house for 10,000 PhPesos a month ( current exchange is 43+PhP=$1US). My total nut is about $800 including food, satellite TV (inc/ FoxNews and FoxSports), hi-speed internet( for streaming), water and electricity. I don't have a car. I drive a Honda Scoopy scooter!
It costs much less than Cebu to live here, but it is more "provincial". It's a poor country and hired help is cheap. My housekeeper is paid 2500 PhP per month! She cleans, cooks, and does the laundry by hand. I have two workers today for 150PhP each to clean the first and second story windows, wash the tiled courtyard, and cut the grass/clean outside the gate AND wash my Scoopy.
I am soon opening a restaurant here featuring EASTERN NC pulled pork and NOLA style Po-boys! I can and probably will stay here until I die! I can visit home any time I wish, via internet and Korean Air!!
God Bless you and yours, Jim.
I'd go with axing the agencies that aren't explicitly-named or implicitly-commissioned in the Constitution; that would be like the Treasury, the Post Office, the Navy, the Secret Service**, and [grudgingly] the IRS*. The Army is an intriguing special-case; by all rights it should be dissolved [into the States's militia] because its fundings aren't supposed to last more than 2-years... congress gets around this by continually budgeting the Standing Regular Army for two years every two years.
* Sadly the 16th Amendment is part of the Constitution, is it not?
** The SS is supposed to be anti-counterfeiting (one of the few Constitutionally explicit federal-level crimes).
I am retired and on a pension large enough for me to live there in comfort, But I won’t leave here without my family, my kids and Grandkids, and they cannot go without jobs.
Thanks Jim, for keeping this site open and free for all to debate, learn and grow. :)

This is one of 3 sites I visit every day.
Thanks Jim.
