Has the Flag Become Just Decoration?

The Color Guard in Conrad, Iowa, May 2010
Today I read that a Republican legislator in Illinois wants to withhold state tax refunds from parents of fat kids. Are you kidding me?
I’m not sure what bothers me more, the fact that he’s a Republican — in the Land of Lincoln! — or that he thinks getting into the fridges and cupboards of the state’s residents — me! — is perfectly acceptable.
To be sure, Illinois is not exactly a free state. You can’t have a gun without being on a “list” and Chicago was one of the first major cities to have cameras on street corners.
Clearly we have fallen. At least one watchful organization has the USA listed as one of the top five police states in the world. They are right. But we citizens are so sure we could never succumbe to such tactics, we are blind.
But here we are. Illinois already has mandatory diabetic checks for all public school students, which makes this nutball idea merely a logical next step. And the attorney general recently suggested it was perfectly fine to release the FOID (Firearm Owners IDentification) card list to the public for “safety” reasons.
Recently I got stopped by the police for having a headlight out. I got a warning ticket. A TICKET For something that wasn’t even illegal.
When I put my flag out on beautiful, sunny spring days, I wonder if it just a pretty decoration. I’m thinking of replacing it with the Gasden flag. That’s the yellow one, with the snake on it, the official banner of New Hampshire, the Free State. It won’t be decoration. It will be my international statement: “Don’t Tread on Me.” And stay out of my pantry.
Vaccine-Mercury-Autism Connection – My Take
Posted: October 22, 2009 Filed under: Economy and Culture, Family, Food, Health and Medicine Leave a comment »
Okay. So there are two sides to the vaccine-autism war: Big Pharma and Arrogant Government on one side; Mothers and other smart but organizationally powerless people on the other. BP and AG say “There have been many studies showing no connection between mercury and autism.” Mom and OSBOPP say “Hey, dummies, the gov’t settled a mercury case which they never do unless there is a connection, AND imperical evidence shows a direct correlation between autism rates and vaccine requirements.”
What’s the truth? Well, I don’t know exactly, but I’m going to say they are BOTH RIGHT, because of the Alzheimer’s -Wheat connection (see previous post). In a nutshell, people who can’t properly breakdown and process gluten and/or casein proteins have leaky guts, and that compromises the barriers in the brain that normally prevent heavy metals from crawling in there and doing damage.
So … when kids who have this gluten/casein intolerance are exposed to LARGE amounts of toxins in the excessive number of vaccines given to babies, they get brain damage. TA-DA! (Just so you know, I didn’t make this up. The previous post about Alzheimer’s gives the scientific reference for this info, plus Dr. Mercola on his site has information about toxic overload in some individuals.)
Do you see why both sides are correct? There may not be a DIRECT link between mercury and autism, but it may be a set of circumstances that create a situation in the body where autism can be manifest. In other words, it may be causation, but ONLY IN A SUBSET OF HUMANS. I’ve read estimates that as many as 20% of us may have some type of gluten sensitivity.
As for other questions, we’ll have to see what comes down the pipeline. Does GMO baby formula create gut problems? Is this intolerance hereditary (that’s my guess based on our family history)? Will anyone care enough to put money into the proper research?
There is one question, though that can be answered now.
WHY DO WE REQUIRE THESE SHOTS AT ALL????????
If you haven’t read about the study of 72,000 people who took seasonal flu shots (previous post) now would be a good time …
Study of 72,000 Proves Flu Vaccine is Quackery

This is WAY too good to not pass along to you smart folks.
A just-published article in The Atlantic “outs” the truth about flu vaccines, highlighting an excellent study of 72,000 people showing how the shots NEVER cut death rates, don’t help with immunity, and, basically, are nothing more than superstition.
I was a subscriber to The Atlantic and can tell you it is not prone to political bias, and requires excellent documentation from its writers (the articles are usually VERY long). Below are two links; the first is a summary of the article, the second is the actual article.
Don’t forget to pass along what you’ve learned and includes the links for proper credit!

Top Federal Officials Fear Uprising Over H1N1
Posted: October 13, 2009 Filed under: Economy and Culture, Health and Medicine Leave a comment »
Last week I reported that troops were being stationed around the U.S. at regional government offices after receiving mandatory H1N1 vaccines. ( “What Do Soldiers Have to Do with the Flu?”).
Here is more info from the AP article, which appeared at http://www.healthkey.com/a-z/swine-flu/sns-health-swine-flu-military,0,5120366.story:
“So far, [AF Gen. Gene] Renuart said that between 15 and 20 troops have been dispatched to each of the five regional headquarters, to work with officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Department of Health and Human Services, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and state leaders.
But the military presence could rise to 80 in each regional office if needed, he said.
” ‘If you see the virus begin to mutate or have a broader affect, or pockets where the vaccine isn’t available or is less effective,” and the local authorities need help, the military would send the additional support,’ Renuart said.”
(Lolita C. Baldor The Associated Press 4:52 p.m. CDT, September 29, 2009)
This continues to beg the question … WHY? Who is whispering in the ear of the President – or someone at that level; you see above this is a coordinated program among top federal offices – that this is going to get worse?
Unfortunately, nobody in mainstream media (MSM) will have the guts or smarts to ask the hard questions. In the meantime, don’t be surprised if there is a mutation of H1N1 after the holidays. We already know H1N1 was engineered (see links below - I also have a personal contact who has given me some reason to worry), but we may never know who let it walk off the farm, and why the PTBs think the fatalities will increase.

I Spy … Google Looking at Me …
Posted: October 9, 2009 Filed under: Economy and Culture Leave a comment »
Is Google oogling you? YES. It is standard practice for Google and other engines to use your searches to help government and private industry find out what you are concerned about … so they can respond accordingly. For example, government agencies right now are accessing Google records to find out how many of us are concerned about H1N1.
I don’t like this. It’s none of their *&@! business what I want to research (and I do A LOT of research for my various writing projects and for personal education). I also don’t appreciate “them” taking advantage of our individual curiousities to market or coerce us into a particular action or purchase.
So this is what I do … I only use www.startpage.com for my searches. This company uses several seach engines FOR YOU, but it NEVER keeps a history of what you have searched. Don’t buy the argument, “If I’m not doing anything wrong who cares who looks at my stuff?’ Bottom line is, you deserve your privacy and/or you need to give permission for your info to be used.
Privacy is foundational to liberty … never give up yours! Big Brother/Sister is watching.

Loved this article from the Daily Mail in London! The reporter did a great job in showing what wise people have always known: hard times, while very difficult, make people better. Take a moment to read it, and give yourself some positive thoughts about our current economic conditions.
