Occupy Wall Street update

As I watched the live stream yesterday, which was in and out all day, I saw several people come in and speak to the crowds.  It raises a great deal of concern.

Dr. Cornel West, who is "Popular Marxist intellectual; describes himself as a “prophet”, Highly paid campus speaker and professor at Princeton,  Friend of Louis Farrakhan,  Political advisor to Al Sharpton, Views America as a nation thoroughly infested with white racism"  Read more here.  You can watch his interview with CNN while at "Occupy Wall Street" here.

Francis Fox Piven, which I have written about before, also spoke.  To refresh memory of who she is:  "Co-creator of the so-called Cloward-Piven Strategy,  Seeks to foment economic crises, which can then be exploited for purposes of transformational social change,  Has been a guest speaker at numerous Socialist Scholars Conferences,  Admirer of Karl Marx, Views violent rioting as an effective and desirable means of agitating for social change"  Read more about her here.  See the video of her speech to the protestors here.

Now these two are not a good combination.  When people that are Marxist, Socialist, and Communist are coming to support a group of protesters, this presents a problem for the rest of us.  Question is, with all these groups coming together, how will this end.  It is my opinion it won't be good if they continue.

Then you have Van Jones. Who,  "Became a Communist in the aftermath of the 1992 "Rodney King riots" in Los Angeles,  Founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights in 1996,  Was active in the anti-Iraq War demonstrations organized by International ANSWER,  Served as a board member of the Rainforest Action Network and Free Press,  In March 2009, President Barack Obama named Jones to be his so-called “Green Jobs Czar.”,  Resigned in early September 2009"  Read more on Van Jones here.

As I have said before and I will say again, educate yourself on these people and what is going on in this country.  If we leave it up to people like Van Jones, Cornel West, and Francis Fox Piven, those of us who believe in the Constitution, which is being destroyed daily, will have a New Constitution that will take away many of our rights and opportunities.

The events that are happening on Wall Street is spreading.  We need to prepare ourselves for what may come and pray for it not to erupt into an "Arab Spring" here in this country.  The elections next year are critical to our future.  Educate yourself on the canidates and VOTE for the one you feel is best for our country.

U. S. Day of Rage

Chatter on the Internet is about a Day of Rage set to begin tomorrow.  I have written about this before.  I hope and pray that nothing happens, but, if it does, my family and I are prepared.  I hope you are as well. 

According to the website usdayofrage.org, protests are scheduled for all across the U. S.   When you put the pieces to the puzzle together it all comes to focus.  According to Saul Alinsky's book Rules for Radicals, he continuely writes about agitating the "Have-nots".  He writes about getting the "Have-nots" riled up to the point of revolution.  He writes: "They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so future less in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and chance the future."  Does this sound familiar?  The number of unemployed, the number of those on welfare and food stamps, the unknown as to when jobs will return.  All this is fuel for the revolution that is being called for.  This is also the strategy of Cloward and Piven on "overwhelming the system".

When you have the AFL-CIO Richard Trumka making post on his webiste that makes comments like: "Just 10 years after 9/11, despite our vows, the public servants, construction workers and others who lost their lives or still suffer with the cancerous remnants of the Twin Towers haven’t just been forgotten. They’ve been vilified. The extremist small government posse has turned them into public enemy No. 1, as though teachers and firefighters, EMTs and nurses and union construction workers ruined America’s economy."  Notice the comment "The extremist small government."

He goes on to write, "Wealthy CEOs, anti-government extremist front groups and frothing talk show hosts—from the Rush Limbaughs and Glenn Becks to the Koch brothers, Karl Rove’s American Crossroads group, Americans for Prosperity, the Club for Growth, FreedomWorks and the American Legislative Exchange Council—also pushed open the door to hate."  Notice the ones listed speak out against the "big government".  I have never heard or read where any one of these promote hate.

He goes on the say, "Brothers and sisters, friends, I hope you will join me in marking this solemn anniversary by committing to redouble your activism on behalf of America’s everyday working heroes. We will rise or fall together."  Read his statement here.

I have posted links to videos showing how the Black Panthers are rising up, preparing for a fight and promoting hate towards whites.  Now this video comes to light.  On August 13, 2011 the Black Panthers President Malik Zulu Shabazz , tells a Harlem audience  "Our enemies are right here in the United States of America." "Our battle is police brutality, budget cuts, racism and white supremecy."  "Failure to pay Reperations, failure to compensate us for the robbery of Africa, murder of hundreds of millions of blacks here in the west and abroad. "  "We elected you, but, we did not elect you to bomb your homeland.  We did not elect you to bomb Africa."  " We have to fight.  Gird up your loins.  The hour of war is at hand."  Watch the video here.

You be the judge.

The Cloward/Piven strategy and today

Yesterday I wrote about the Cloward/Piven Strategy.  Today I want to point out how it is taking place today.  We hear or read about the riots going on all around the world and think it will not happen here.  Well, if you look at the Cloward/Piven Strategy, it is here already. 

The Cloward/Piven Strategy called for "cadres of aggressive organizers" to use "demonstrations to create a climate of militancy." Intimidated by black violence, politicians would appeal to the federal government for help. Carefully orchestrated media campaigns, carried out by friendly, leftwing journalists, would float the idea of a "a federal program of income redistribution," in the form of a guaranteed living income for all; working and non-working people alike. Local officials would clutch at this idea like drowning men to a lifeline. They would apply pressure on Washington to implement it. With every major city erupting into chaos, Washington would have to act."

Well, this is happening now: Hundreds rampage through neighboroods surrounding Wisconsin state fair .  Our politicians are turning a blind eye to what is happening and what they can do to stop this madness before what is happening in Europe and other countries comes to this country.

Would it really hurt us that bad if our politicians were to tackle the entitlement programs?  Would taking entitlements on destroy this country and our lives?  I'm not saying that all entitlements are bad, what I am saying is that we should take a good hard look at these programs and see how they are working.  That is what they have done in Michigan.  30,000 College students kicked out of food aid program in Michigan.  When the entitlement programs are being abused as they are, something needs to be done.  After all, the working class are the ones who are paying for the entitlement programs.

We should inform our Politicians that we are aware of this strategy and if they do not have what it takes to fight this strategy, we will replace them with someone who will.

The future

As I watch the markets tumble again today, I am reminded of watching Glenn Beck and his warnings over a year ago of what is happening now and why.  I have mentioned before in my post that you should prepare for the worst and hope for the best.  As I watch what is happening to the market, I see it is more important now than ever before.

If you ever watched Glenn Beck you know that he has talked about the Cloward and Piven Strategy.  If you are not familiar, please read up on them.  You can also watch this information and warning by Glenn Beck.
Hopefully, this will shed some light as to what is happening and why.  We should not only prepare ourselves and our families, but, we should contact our Politicians and let them know that we will not fall for this madness. 

We need to unite as a country and protect ourselves for what is to come.  If you read about Cloward & Piven, and watched the Glenn Beck video above, you will understand why I tell you to prepare.  We need to take control in a non-violent way and protect ourselves.

We have a long road ahead, but, if you can stock up on food and supplies, it would be wise.  If you don't know how to protect yourself, find a business that teaches it.  Search on line and find websites that tell you about survival skills and what you need to do to prepare and what to stock up on.
