Realities

Response to Kelly Scoles' "Second Opinion". Hi Kelly. I share a sense of outrage with "that half" seeing the alarming degeneration of America's national defense under the Biden administration. Biden is untrustworthy. He has no honor. Our border, energy supplies, economy, transportation, schools, and especially our military, have been brutally sabotaged by the Biden "presidency" during the last 18 months. We are now perceived as vulnerable in the eyes of our deadliest enemy, communist China, because the Biden family crime syndicate is completely compromised, as demonstrated by son Hunter, and cannot act against China. By Thomas Lifson, from American Thinker, 10-17-2021 www.ft.com/content/ba0a3cde-719b-4040-93cb-a486e1f843fb "In August, China launched a nuclear-capable hypersonic glide vehicle which flew through low-orbit space, circling the globe before cruising down towards its target, demonstrating an advanced space capability that caught US intelligence by surprise." [Several persons] said the test showed that China had made astounding progress on hypersonic weapons and was far more advanced than US officials realized. "The test has raised new questions about why the US often underestimates China’s military modernization." "We have no idea how they did this, [one person said]." US research into hyper weapon technology was canceled during the Obama administration. We have no way to counter this first-strike capability. Lifson continues his critique of senior United States military leadership, which he shows to be obsessed with: So, I believe we have reached an end point where a majority discovers just how vulnerable national defense has become. Let's look at our State Department - they facilitated the Afghanistan surrender; Department of Treasury, trading stocks on the sly; Department of Defense, leaders talk to the enemy, secretly, and failed in Afghanistan; Justice Department Attorney General sics the FBI on parents objecting to school board decisions; Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, no experience, taking "paternity leave" with "husband" in midst of transportation crisis; Department of Energy shutting off fossil fuels; Department of Homeland Security, makes a deadly joke of itself with totally open borders, etc. There is no reason for a reasonable man to trust any federal department at this time, especially the FBI, CIA, DIA, and all the other "IAs", each of which participated in undermining the Trump presidency - details dribbling out almost daily - a central factor in Deep State sabotage. On the Second Amendment: The primary purpose of this amendment is to protect citizens from government tyranny - a justifiable fear of our Founders. "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed." Clearer wording would be hard to print. "The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home." Pp. 2–53. (District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008). The lady doth protest too much, methinks. Like most liberals, I think you don't take American law and history seriously. I've gone over the religious beliefs of our Founding Fathers many times. "They retained a supernaturalist world view, a belief in the divinity of Jesus Christ, and an adherence to the teachings of their denomination. These founders included Patrick Henry, John Jay, and Samuel Adams." In the Constitutional Convention of 1787, he [Franklin] reflected that "the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth - that God governs the affairs of men". To a man (including Thomas Paine) the Founders believed the country couldn't survive without religion- though Deism strongly influenced their 18th century, the Founders were mostly conventional Christians. Biden epitomizes "demagoguery", total falsehood. I'm dealing with truth; question is, can you handle the truth? (a littleNicholsonian hyperbole). You got it backwards, Kelly. God is not "a Republican who embraces all their [Republican] political and religious beliefs." Most believe God makes a gift of faith which in turn makes believers in God. But I'm certainly no theologian and will beg-off here for that reason. My reference to a knife fight originates with Obama. Remember: "If They Bring a Knife to the Fight, We Bring a Gun." So violent! I've gone way too long. Last opinion: The state of this nation is now historically precarious, militarily and politically -- and it is becoming tyrannical. |
