Please watch these two videos. Pastor Steven Broden speaks at a Forth Worth event on June 11, 2009 entitled America’s Awakening. You can visit their website at the following link: http://www.americasawakening.com/ Pastor Broden talks about the Fabian Socialists who are now in control of our government, both in Congress and the Administration. He tells us what we can do to stop our nation’s descent into tyranny.
According to Jerry Bower in Forbes Magazine, 11/03/2008: “Fabian socialists believe in gradual nationalization of the economy through manipulation of the democratic process. Breaking away from the violent revolutionary socialists of their day, they thought that the only real way to effect “fundamental change” and “social justice” was through a mass movement of the working classes presided over by intellectual and cultural elites. Before TV it was stage plays, written by George Bernard Shaw and thousands of inferior “realist” playwrights dedicated to social change…the Fabian MO, relentless cultural and journalistic attacks on everything that is, and then a hard pitch for the hope of what might be.”

“From “INTELLECTUAL CONSERVATIVE“, a blog focusing on Conservative and Libertarian Politics. – a history lesson”
The ugliest chapter in the progessive/fascist alliance centered on Eugenics, the pseudo-science of racial purification.
Like a demanding and ill-mannered child, liberals are used to getting their way. Whenever they lapse into the losing side of an argument, they reflexively resort to name-calling and mud-slinging. Epithets like “neo-Nazi,” “crypto-fascist,” and “imperialist stooge” buzz like mosquitoes hovering over a Potomac swamp.
But how many conservatives who are targets of such slurs know these liberals are indulging in one of the greatest intellectual ruses in history? How many realize it’s a matter of the red-faced pot calling the kettle black?
Esteemed reader, you are about to learn the truth of the long-standing love affair between American progressivism and European fascism.
As Jonah Goldberg reveals in his bestseller Liberal Fascism, that romance can be traced back to the presidency of Woodrow Wilson. The Democrat was both a progressive and racist who famously wrote, “The white men were roused by a mere instinct of self-preservation . . . until at last there had sprung into existence a great Ku Klux Klan, a veritable empire of the South, to protect the Southern country.”
Shortly after America entered World War I in 1917, Wilson signed an Executive Order establishing the Committee on Public Information, a propaganda apparatus designed to whip Americans into a patriotic fervor. The following year Wilson pushed for the Sedition Act which banned the use of any “disloyal, profane, scurrilous, or abusive language” about the government. That sweeping language served to squelch all forms of political dissent.
The notorious Sedition Act occasioned the arrest of an estimated 175,000 Americans accused of essentially failing to be sufficiently patriotic – leading Goldberg to dub the Wilson presidency a “fascist police state.”
For those who wonder whether the phrase “liberal fascist” is a little over the top, in fact it was coined by science fiction novelist H.G. Wells. In 1932 the progressivist Wells delivered a speech that called for a revitalization of the fading liberal movement: “the Fascists of Liberalism must . . . begin as a disciplined sect, but they must end as the sustaining organization of a reconstituted mankind.”
Wells was also a friend and confidante of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Struggling to rescue America from the dregs of the Great Depression, FDR was fully aware of what was transpiring in Europe and sought to emulate its accomplishments. Roosevelt once bragged, “what we are doing in this country were some of the things that were being done in Russia and even some of the things that were being done under Hitler in Germany.”
European fascists returned the presidential compliment. In 1934 the Nazi Party’s official newspaper sang the praises of FDR, describing him as a “warm-hearted leader of the people with a profound understanding of social needs.” And the Fuhrer himself sent Roosevelt a private letter applauding his “heroic efforts in the interests of the American people.”
Mussolini was even more enthralled with the American commander. Upon reading Roosevelt’s Looking Forward, Mussolini fawned, “The appeal to the decisiveness and masculine sobriety of the nation’s youth, with which Roosevelt here calls his readers to battle, is reminiscent of the ways and means by which Fascism awakened the Italian people.”
Il Duce was of course referring to the sweeping New Deal policies that established massive job programs, centralized power in vast government bureaucracies, and imposed rigid price controls on the economy.
But the ugliest chapter in the progressive-fascist alliance centered on eugenics, the pseudo-science of racial purification. Three prominent persons, all of the liberal persuasion, were prominent flag-wavers in this execrable episode of American history.
Woodrow Wilson was one of the first American politicians to promote eugenic policies. As governor of New Jersey, Wilson approved a law in 1912 that created the Board of Examiners of Feebleminded, Epileptics, and Other Defectives.
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes was another progressive icon of the era. Holmes wrote the flawed Supreme Court decision Buck v. Bell that put the legal stamp of approval on compulsory sterilization. “Three generations of imbeciles are enough,” Holmes infamously wrote.
A few years later in 1934 the American Eugenics Society published the Case for Sterilization, a book that piqued the interest of the Fuhrer himself. One leading member of the American Eugenics Society was Margaret Sanger. The birth-control crusader was the moving force behind the Negro Project, which enlisted ministers such as Adam Clayton Powell, Sr. in the crusade to restrict reproduction among “inferior” stocks of Blacks.
So fellow conservatives, arise! The next time you are slandered as a proto-Nazi or angry White male (which in the liberal mind are one and the same), drag out the fascist skeletons rattling in the progressive closet. Mention Woodrow Wilson’s infatuation with racial cleansing, the FDR-Hitler mutual admiration society, Justice Holmes’ authorship of Buck v. Bell, and Margaret Sanger’s Negro Project.
If that doesn’t stop the guilty-minded liberal in his tracks, mention how progressive-inspired eugenics policies were the prime moving force behind the forced sterilization of 400,000 undesirables in Nazi Germany.
That inconvenient truth is certain to focus the discussion.

This video is 20 minutes long and features Steven Crowder who states … “liberals have the luxury of espousing points of view from the lap of luxury that is the USA. When you’ve had to live through it and have actually had a “dog in the fight,” it becomes a whole new ball game. Is this really what we want for America?” The video was found on the blog, Big Hollywood. While the video creates lots of laughs, the information is serious. I suggest that you watch it all. Then send the link to all of your friends.

In this video Dr. Ron Paul, Texas district 14, United States Congress, gives us a short history lesson about secession. The interview was taped after Governor Rick Perry made a remark at the April 15th Tea Party protest that Texas had the right to secede from the union if it so desired.
Recently I had the privilege of communicating with a California lawyer now living in Texas, Steven Laib, who has written articles for “Intellectual Conservative“, an online blog about politics and philosophy. Below is a short excerpt from his essay “The State Secession Issue & Texas v. White”.
“The Supreme Court’s 1868 decision that states cannot leave the Union was wrong. Here’s why.”
“In my experience, whenever the subject of the Confederate secession or of a modern attempt at the same thing occurs someone is bound to respond with a reference to the infamous case of Texas v. White (7 Wall. 700 ). This Reconstruction Era case was written essentially to put a headstone on the Confederacy’s grave and to stifle any other State’s interests in leaving the Union in the future. It was in all significant respects a politically motivated decision. It ignored certain specific constitutional provisions as well as prior decisions of the court. In short, the decision was just plain wrong.”
“A lot of readers may ask why this particular case of relevant today. The answer lies in the fact that the subject is now being discussed again by many citizens to a degree not experienced since 1860. There is a good reason for it. The overbearing attitude of the federal government which is trampling on and attempting to further trample on the rights of the states and the citizens makes many patriotic individuals wonder whether or not the only way to save the USA is to destroy it and rebuild it in the image of what the founders intended in 1789. If all of the states all broke of and left the feds hanging as a government without a country, it would present a singular problem for those who want to wield power. Of course, there are many individuals who put down this idea for various reasons. Some go so far as to assert that states cannot secede. These people are wrong, at least within the bounds of U.S. Constitutional law. An analysis of why follows……..”
The material quoted above is part of a lengthy article about the history behind the Supreme Court decision — Texas vs White — a court case often used to “prove” that secession is unconstitutional. To read the entire article, click on the following link: http://www.intellectualconservative.com/2009/06/27/the-state-secession-issue-texas-v-white/ . It is well worth reading.

We regret to inform you…
“We regret to inform you…” so began the telegram received by my great-uncle July 4th 65 years ago. It told him that his son, raised on a farm in southern OK, would not be returning to him.
He had shipped out of Ft. Sill months before, had survived his troop transport ship sinking, taking all of his worldly possessions to the bottom of the English Channel. He had survived the beach landing on Normandy, while thousands died around him; he had made it to the hedgerows.
His parents had sent him and 3 of his brothers off to war. None of them questioned what they had to do…they just did it. Their country needed them, so they would go. Images float up to me from my album, happy smiling faces in uniform. Off to the unknown. One off to the pacific…to die on Guam. 2 off to France. One to march on through to Germany to liberate the Jews, and one to die in the hedgerows of France, all of them off to save the country and the world.
On June 6th of this year, I watched Obama and the other leaders of this world gather at Normandy. I sobbed, not from Obama’s so called “eloquent words” I didn’t even hear them. I sobbed for a blonde haired, blue eyed 25 year old man, who never saw his family or home again. I wept for all that was lost with him, who would he have married, what would he have become? I cried for the mother that never again held him in her arms, and when I think of my 2 sons, I know she would have moved heaven and earth to have kept him from the hedgerows that day. She like me would have given her life to save him.
I cried when I think of him, alone on a wind swept hill above the beach in Normandy. None of his family would ever see his grave. They have no personal effects, they were lost. No one comes to visit him. He is alone. And yet, he is not alone, he is with the thousands of other mother’s sons that gave their lives too. Thousands of other empty arms and broken hearts.
And I wept for my country, because what he died for…is dying. I am trying my best…I don’t know what to do. I am at turns angry, despondent and moved to tears, what can I do, what can I do? I’m a stay at home, work at home mom of 2 little boys. But I do know that I have to do something, my cousin would want me to.
Many of you, I’d say the majority of you, were raised as I was. Conservative households, perhaps strict, but not too strict. We were given both sides of a story, but felt that the best side was the side of helping others, reaching out, doing the right thing.
But now we are faced with situations in which we don’t know how to act. This has never happened before. To keep our head down and keep going isn’t working. Action is what is needed and we fumble for what to say and do. So here are some suggestions…
Stick together. This group is one place to vent. There is safety and security in numbers
Be peaceful. Ghandi and King did more than McVay
Vent, but turn that “anger energy” into action.
Go to tea parties, bring your children. We are making history, they are a part of it
Organize tea parties
Work for candidates you like, who stand for the things you stand for
Work to get rid of the people in office who don’t uphold our Constitution
Write letters to the editor of your paper.
Educate others. We are not the type to speak out, but we have to learn to. For example: I’m a nurse. I will be speaking on the 4th of July about this mess of a healthcare plan. What is your profession? How is it affected?
Keep talking to others. Educate, educate, educate.
Read, read, read: “Atlas Shrugged”, “Common Sense”, “Rules for Radicals” (so you know what the enemy has planned)
When you feel lost, alone, confused and angry, think of your ancestors. I’m sure many of you have grandfathers, great-grandfathers, uncles and other ancestors who fought and died for us, for you, so that you and yours would have a better life.
What would they do? They would act, because their country needed them, and our country needs you.

Section 3 – State of the Union, Convening Congress
He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient; he may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, he may adjourn them to such Time as he shall think proper; he shall receive Ambassadors and other public Ministers; he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and shall Commission all the Officers of the United States.
Section 4 – Disqualification
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
The State of the Union address is given to both houses of Congress each year. On January 8, 1790 George Washington personally delivered the first annual message to Congress. In recent history a President will outline his agenda for the nation during his State of the Union address. George Washington used the first yearly address to focus on the union which had been recently created. George Washington’s primary concern was to establish and maintain the union which had been created.
It wasn’t until 1923 that the speech was broadcast – first on the radio by Calvin Coolidge. Before that time it was printed in the newspapers. President Truman was the first president to give his “state of the union” on television. Franklin Roosevelt was the first president to refer to the speech as a “state of the union”. The Constitution does not specify a particular date for the speech, though since the first given by Washington, it is customary to give the speech in late January after the Congress re-convenes.
Thomas Jefferson preferred to carry out his constitutional duty in 1801 by “sending details of his national priorities in written notes to the House and Senate. His successors continued the practice until Woodrow Wilson in 1913. Now that the speech is televised on major news networks, both radio and tv, the speech has become an opportunity for the President to promote his political party. And by giving the speech over the “airwaves”, the President hopes to obtain support for his agenda from the American people.
High Crimes and Misdemeanors –”High Crimes and Misdemeanors” are (1) real criminality — breaking a law; (2) abuses of power; (3) “violation of public trust” as defined by Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist Papers. In 1970, then Representative Gerald R. Ford defined impeachable offenses as “whatever a majority of the House of Representatives considers it to be at a given moment in history.” For an excellent discussion on the history of impeachments of Presidents, go to About.com .

At a time when we are all upset at the tax and spend policies of our current Congress and Administration, this video gives us some hope that not all who have been elected to public office have lost sight of the true nature of our republic. Please watch with me as Congressman Forbes, a Republican from the 4th District of Virginia, asks the questions “Did America ever consider itself a Judeo-Christian nation?” and “If America was once a Judeo-Christian nation, when did it cease to be?”
If you agree with Congressman Forbes, please go to his website: http://forbes.house.gov/ and tell him so.
