Christmas Card For Am650 KGAB Listeners

Those familiar with my writing exercises are familiar with my occasional “all writ” out notes. Some advantages of evolving from farmer’s son to hired gun, to part time senile licensed “Spy As a Verb” instructor, and full time Texas drifter should be noted another time.

Following silent patriot words offer ideas for you to consider while remembering the Judgment day is personal as one judged by what they do, not by what family, friends, neighbors, or compatriots do.

The Ten Commandments are not a living document allowing for interpretations or convenient changes. Example the command is honor thy father and mother, it does not say honor thy father and mother as long as doing so does not interfere with one’s pop culture life style.

An associate asked why I describe re-arranging words as writing exercises. Answer is not that complicated, when one compares my silent words to standards set by America's Founding Fathers some writing is too little too late.

Three of almost unlimited though mostly forgotten examples of words by patriots that seem to make a nice Christmas for patriots, enjoy.

1) Patrick Henry: Should I keep back my opinions at this time through fear of giving offence, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country and of an act of disloyalty towards the majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.
It is natural for man to indulge in illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst and provide for it.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased with the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, I know not what course others will take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.

2) George Bancroft: Darkness closed upon the country, but it was no night for sleep. With one impulse the colonies sprung to arms; with one spirit they pledged themselves to each other "to be ready for the extreme event." With one heart the continent cried "Liberty or Death".

3) George Washington Doane: The men, to make a State, must be intelligent men. The right of suffrage is a fearful thing. It calls for wisdom, and discretion, and intelligence, of no ordinary standard. It takes in at every exercise, the interests of all the nation. Its results reach forward through time to eternity. The men, to make a State, must be honest. I mean men that consider always what is right, and do it at whatever cost. I mean men whom no king on earth can buy. Men that are in the market for highest bidder; men that make politics their trade, and look to office for a living; these are not the men to make a state. The men, to make a State, must be brave men. I mean men that dare to stand alone. I mean the men that are to-day where they were yesterday, and will be there tomorrow. I mean men that can stand and take the storm. The men to make a State must be religious men. I speak of men who have it in their heart as well as on their brow. The men that own no future, the men that trample on the Bible, the men that never pray, are not the men to make a state. The men to make a State are made by faith. A man that has no faith has no past for reverence; no future for reliance. The men to make a State are themselves made by obedience. Obedience is but self government in action; one he can never govern men who do not first govern himself.

Someone once said, those who ignore history are condemned to repeat history. America is not immune from the lessons of history. Contemporary Americans who ignore silent words by American patriots will never learn what mistakes to avoid or how to perpetuate their constitutional republic. George Washington might have suggested that politically correct patriotism like pretender patriotism are both dangerous frauds. Not identifying some well known contemporary conservatives, all their optimism combined all the optimism in the universe will not change inevitable reality. America as established by its Founding Fathers will eventually cease to exist or die. A more realistic appropriate goal is to delay the evitable.

American patriots, like all other American writers can never become great authors. Great writers only get published in the Bible; to presume or proclaim self appointed greatness is vain blasphemy. The goal of American patriotic writers is to inspire and teach contemporary and future patriots.

Perhaps my next writing exercise should review ethical consequences of voting in any election for internationalist, counterfeit conservative, counter American revolutionary, politically correct patriots. Then again, what were Bancroft's words: Darkness closed upon the country, but it was no night for sleep.

Ultimate question is not “if” but “when” America’s constitutional republic ceases to exist or die. Only children and immature adults believe that America’s constitutional republic will last forever. The question that should concern patriots, is will America’s constitutional republic end before its time? Those responsible for America’s constitutional republic premature time can be left for another writing exercise.

History predicts that America’s constitutional republic will be followed by some type of empire. Three possible options include following brutal anarchy, Americans unlike Europeans will not easily succumb to tyranny like Europeans did with Hitler’s Nazism.

Back to America’s future history options: 1) liberal Democratic Marxist-fascist Greenism serving power brokers, public subsidy addicts, many public employees, and illegal immigrants; 2) internationalist moderate Republicans and counterfeit conservatives trying to partner up with option one; and 3) still members to be determined constitutional empire.

Consider the following silent words by James Russell Lowell, “If the politicians must look after the parties, there should be someone to look after the politicians; somebody to ask disagreeable questions and to utter uncomfortable truths; someone to make sure, if possible before the election, not only what but whom the candidate is going to represent.”

Only remaining answer, your Christmas gift of stepping up to Colonel Travis’s line for Heaven’s favorite republic, not asking for much; just a down payment on what you owe America.

Merry Christmas

A Christmas Play: Christmas Before Christmas

Players:
- Simon
- Anna a prophetess
- Quirinius Governor of Syria
- Census Taker
- Simon's Helper
- Two Visitors

Introduction:

(Simon praying in a temple)

Simon: Oh Heavenly Father forgive my selfishness. You have blessed me with the privilege of owning the finest olive gardens, the finest sheep herds, the finest inn, and the most profitable market in all of Judea. Yet my rapacious soul would trade all these earthly blessings for the honor of gazing upon your son the Messiah.

(Suddenly the still wind chimes introduced a saintly intruder)

Anna: You will not die until you have seen God's anointed King.

Act I

(Quirinius on a small throne in his temple with figure kneeling before him)

Quirinius: Rise my fool of a son (person rises). Caesar Augustus has ordered a census to be taken across the nation to make the collection of taxes more efficient. I am commanding you to carry out Caesar's orders in Judea. If you can accomplish this task I shall reward your efforts by making you tax collector for Judea.

New Census Taker: I wish to thank

Quirinius (interrupts): I have no time for fool's babble. Who is the most influential merchant in Judea?

Census Taker: Simon of Jerusalem, he has the finest olive gardens, the largest sheep herds, the finest inn, and the most profitable market.

Quirinius: I have heard of Simon, tell me more.

Census Taker: Simon is a devout man who refuses to engage in money lending or take an interest in politics.

Quirinius: Destroy this Simon of Jerusalem.

Census Taker: Why he is an honest merchant without enemies?

Quirinius: It is not Simon that could be a threat but the thieves who may use his wealth against us. Be gone, I have grown tired of you.

Act II

(Six months later - Quirinius on a small throne in his temple with Census Taker kneeling before him)

Quirinius: Rise, my fool of a son: Report to me about your progress on the census and Simon of Jerusalem.

Census Taker: The census taking process is on schedule. As for Simon of Jerusalem: I released locust into his olive gardens; I destroyed his sheep herds with plagues; I burned his inn; I had bandits steal his wealth; and I have incited riots at his market so none will shop there. I am ready to return as tax collector.

Quirinius (erupts in to rage): You fool you have signed both our death warrants. I ordered you to destroy Simon not his property. How can taxes be paid to Caesar with barren trees, dead sheep, ashes, empty coffers, or empty market places?
Guards let it be known that my fool son's inheritance shall be sent to Caesar to reimburse Simon's losses resulting from my fool son's actions. Let it also be known that my son of a fool shall be banished from Syria for the remainder of my life.

Act III

(Simon and Simon's Helper standing by three sided shelter)

Simon (pointing): Isn't it beautiful?

Simon's Helper: Sir how can a man who never cheated or punished the innocent; a man who has lost everything he earned his entire life; see beauty in THIS? Sir, every night, I shed tears of confusion not knowing why Heaven is punishing you.

Simon: My dearest life long friend, I see beauty in THIS because I see opportunity. As for heaven punishing me, stewards of faith know the difference between punishment and preparation.

Simon's Helper: Where's the opportunity in having a stable without a bucket to bring water, or straw for feed.

Visitor (enters stage): I am looking for Simon of Jerusalem.

Simon: I am Simon of Jerusalem.

Visitor: Many decades ago before I was born, you loaned my father this bucket. His dying words were that I return your bucket with five donkeys loaded with straw.

Simon: I grieve for the loss of an honest man. I greatly accept the return of my bucket. Heaven only asks for tithes of ten percent; it would be a sin for me to accept straw from your donkeys. Now I must go to the temple to pray for your loss.
(Turning to helper) Use the bucket to bring us water.

Conclusion

(Simon returns to stable to find stable half full of animals and Simon's Helper talking to another visitor)

Simon's Helper: Great news, a few more customers and you shall have enough profits to buy new sheep.

Simon: I thought I said I could not accept straw from the visitor?

Simon's Helper: The visitor insisted that the straw from five donkeys was a gift, not interest for a debt.

Simon: Who is the new visitor?

Simon's Helper: Some man less fortunate than us, the man can not afford shelter for his wife who about to give birth.

Simon: What were you telling this man who is less fortunate than us?

Simon's Helper: I was telling him that Heaven was preparing him not punishing him.

Simon (interrupts): And?

Simon's Helper: I shall tell Joseph that it would be an honor for you to share your stable; with him, his wife, and their soon to be born child.

Simon: I must return to the Temple to seek Anna's guidance.

(At the Temple)

Anna (to Simon): Eight days later during Mary's purification offering at this Temple, you will speak "Lord now I can die content for I have seen him as you promised."

(Pause - Simon and Anna freeze as Simon's Helper walks on stage)

Simon's Helper: Anna's prophecy came true and Simon found peace as a contented man. Simon later restored that which had been lost to the want be tax collector. I might add that his restoration work was made much easier by my loyalty. Let me tell you about my tireless efforts.

(Cast and all those involved in play break in while walking on stage singing – Oh Holy Night)

(Additional Christmas songs will follow if audience has time)

Guide To American Political Cannibalism
Marshall Texas Drifter

Writing warm up exercise:
Drifting to unknown home
Like Patsy, Janis, and Rose
Greece, Rome, and America
All ended up same
Drifting to known hope
Through cannibals of traditions

As cited before, repetition often makes a good teaching tool. Not all communities and sometimes countries are worth saving. Remember Noah’s neighbors, Sodom and Gomorrah, Greece, and Rome. Question of this writing exercise, is America’s name being added to list?

Evolution of cannibalism is not that complex, starting with jungle peoples evolving into human history’s most institutionalized cannibalistic system Mexico’s Aztecs.

Mexico’s Aztecs created in terms of casualties of millions of people and casualty numbers for neighboring cultures most brutally ruthless efficient cannibalistic society known to human history.

Perhaps greatest threat to America’s constitutional republic is America’s own patriot conservatives ignoring, tolerating, and supporting cultural cannibalism of America’s original principles, traditional values, Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

First tribe of cannibals threatening America’s culture is illegal immigration and their supporters. Despite all lies and propaganda by illegal immigrant cannibal sympathizers: illegal immigrants first goal is entering America, to steal from law abiding Americans. Steal everything from jobs from law abiding Americans, along with stealing education for their kids, medical services, social services, and anything else they can get possession of; preferably money which can be illegally sent back to Mexico.

Illegals do not come to America to be productive American citizens rather cannibalize what they can to return to third world countries. Please explain how turning America into country with third world values, principles, traditions, and tyrannies is anything but (blank), you the reader can fill in blank What kind of fool would believe that prioritizing culture thieves for citizenship is any kind of good idea?

Threatening national security, domestic tranquility, public health, and cultural traditions by supporting illegal immigration makes offending American citizen supporters cannibals.

This group includes: greedy unethical capitalists seeking to exploit illegal immigrants for below legal wages minus job benefits American citizens are legally entitled too (hire a maid for illegal wages and your child or children have a cannibal for a parent/s).

Others in this group include America last hate driven racists which includes most members of America’s public education systems (elementary, intermediate, secondary, and especially college and university).

Consider case of Rio Hondo Independent School District in Rio Grande Valley, Texas which gave U.S. students “vacation day off” for Cinco de Mayo to honor Mexican heroes at American taxpayers expense. RHISD in same month forced U.S. students to attend school also at American taxpayer expense dishonoring American heroes on Memorial Day.

Think RHISD is not a lonely force in cannibalizing American principles, values, and traditions; visit Google “Citizens Passions” and review Continue Plus archives replete with examples of how taxpayer subsidize public education, one of largest tribes of cannibals currently operating in contemporary America.

Another social component of tribe one cannibals includes those who hate America and Americans successes; examples include people supporting of “the reconquest” of America by Mexican heritage imperialists.

Second tribe of cannibals threatening America’s principles, values, traditions, and culture includes anti-conservative aristocrats including their enforcers’ federal career prosecutors. Some family names include: Bush, Dole, McCain, and a host of “country club’ type unethical capitalists and internationalist pretending to be conservatives.

This tribe of cannibals is vocally supported by counterfeit conservative talk show hosts, from phony conservative media net works like FOX NEWS using pretender “conservative analysts”; to radio formats like 710AM KURV Rio Grande Valley, Texas.

The radio station fakes a conservative news format while discreetly tailoring key issues like border security for station advertisement revenues from collateral retail profits of a porous border economy based on criminal activities.

The most disingenuous group of counterfeit conservative includes those describing themselves as moderate conservative or moderate Republicans. These people are generally people denouncing ideology since their beliefs are guided by populism for commercial reasons, or simply a wish to be popular with everyone by believing that all ideologies are politically correct.

Tribe two has no problem destroying America’s domestic manufacturing base for corporate profits. These cannibals’, top clients can be indirectly identified by listing those seeking preferred trading status with China, Middle East, and Mexico.

National security analysts should be asking why America’s three greatest international threats: China’s military, Middle East Islamic Fascists, and Mexico’s illegal immigration invasion are all primary objectives of cannibal tribe two’s “favorite” free trade international clients.

Third tribe of cannibals threatening America’s principles, values, traditions, and culture includes followers of Marxist nationalist fascism. Sub-groups of this tribe include: socialists, liberal democrats, politically correct and affirmative activists, beneficiaries of public subsidy addict services and products, distributors of public subsidy services and products, and leftist news media sources like ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and other sources you the reader can add to list (including ABC Ch. 5, CBS Ch.4, and NBC Ch 23, and PBS Ch 60 in Rio Grande Valley, Texas).

Fourth tribe of cannibals threatening America’s principles, values, traditions, and culture includes foreign threats like: smugglers, terrorists, barbarian immigrants, and imperialist nations.

American conservatives and patriots should never presuppose the above four cannibal tribes do not form alliances. It seems the new meaning for “American melting pot” includes alliance relationships between illegal immigrants, counterfeit conservative, socialist democrats, and internationalist relationships with America’s foreign enemies.

Now to understanding how to identify day of living dead cannibals, first cannibals are in uniform, look for the small bone protruding through their nose. Most likely, one will have to compare what cannibals say to their actions. Compare what Bush promised as a candidate and did as President. Think Bush II behavior confirms him as an obvious cannibal of American values, principles, traditions, Constitution and Bill of Rights. Readers have seen nothing compared to what a President Obama will do to America’s values, principles, traditions, and Constitution, and Bill of Rights.

Interim summary, the who: cultural cannibal tribes; the what: destroy American values, principles, traditions, Constitution and Bill Of Rights; the when: as you read this writing exercise; the where: all across America; and the why: greed, ethnic prejudice (anti-American), anti-Anglo racial prejudice, just plain uneducated ignorance, mostly too lazy to do what is right.

As cited before, repetition often makes a good teaching tool. Not all communities and sometimes countries are worth saving. Remember Noah’s neighbors, Sodom and Gomorrah, Greece, and Rome.

Question of this writing exercise, is America’s name being added to list? Based on success and popularity of cannibalism destroying America’s values, principles, traditions, Constitution and Bill of Rights in places like Rio Grande Valley, Texas; America has already been added to list.

With political leaders like Republican counterfeit conservatives Bush II and Marxist socialist Democrats like Obama; future historians will not have trouble identifying cannibal followers for cannibal tribes responsible for destroying America.

At this point in time, identifying cannibal bad guys is about all conservative and patriots can do; as most Americans lack sufficient self respect to manage cannibal threats as they should be dealt with. Leaders without devoted loyal followers are martyrs in waiting. Most leaders understand followers without personal honor and self respect, are not worth leading.

There is no reason for Americans to patronize media sources like ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, KURV AM 710 radio, and other cannibal propaganda sources masquerading as impartial journalism covertly driven by regional advertising profits which provide aid to America last crowd.


Only Heaven knows at what point a community, society, or country is beyond redemption. Just a guess, Rio Grande Valley, Texas and much of American society are beyond redemption. Guess another guess, hopefully America the country is not yet beyond redemption, despite wasting respect on efforts of cannibals Bush II and Obama and their cannibal followers.

Writing warm down exercise:

Drifting to unknown home
Like Patsy, Janis, and Rose
Greece, Rome, and America
All ended up same
Drifting to known hope
Through cannibals of traditions

Drifting to unknown home
Leaving no paper trail
Surviving is staying free
Aluma feather Free Spirit
Drifting to known hope
Through cannibals of traditions

Drifting to unknown home
Love worth drifter’s love
Honor worth drifter’s respect
Luke was also drifter
Drifting to known hope
Through cannibals of traditions

Future history question: life is an amazing venture. Who would have thought that few words and poster photos by a part time senile old farmer’s son turned Texas drifter would cause world’s two most powerful men too act like whining two year old children?
