The Pen is to the keyboard what the sword is to the gun

THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD

Editorial by Doug Cook

(Jan. 8, 2010) — I have been trying to think of a good story about the unsung heroes of liberty, you folks who post on blogs and media sites around the worldwide web.

If you who bravely express your concerns, your heartfelt emotions and patriotism for God and Country have any doubt as to your efforts having an effect on the issues you hold dear, read on.  You must understand just how valuable what you have to say is; the fact that you have something to say is so important that your doing so may be the one thing that peacefully saves our country.

It is a no-brainier as to why the Amerikan nomenklatura wishes to quash freedom of speech through control of the  Internet. The old media, the movie industry and our centers of learning have all been corrupted and subverted to the ways of the left. The Internet is the last bastion of liberty remaining. Information is the single largest threat to the old media’s doctrine of absolute rule and control of the wealth and riches of the most prosperous nation the world has ever known.

The worldwide web is one of the most feared aspects to continued existence and ultimate survival of the elitist rulers. It is understood in absolute terms among the apparatchik throughout  upper-crust think tanks and Bilderberg clubhouses, by puppets and sacrificial goats from a counterfeit president to installment in NY 23 race and subsequent defection of Dede Scarifarous, to a test run of voting fraud in same election, to justices who block redress of unconstitutional acts, and the perpetrators of climate scam.  There are few isolated, unrelated incidents in the politics of our times. Politics are the trade craft of the agents of espionage, the wet work performed for those in lofty positions of a small elite class of very wealthy powerful individuals.

Guns and ammo in the hands of the people have been back-burnered to the threat that the Internet poses.

The web, the astounding vehicle of free speech and dissension it has become, its rapid rise unforeseen, is the 5000-pound gorilla in the room.  Once the Internet is shut down, then taking the guns out of the hands of the people is a cake walk. Note how these liberties are supreme constitutional amendments. They are numbers 1 and 2 in the Bill of Rights, respectively. It was no accident that our founders considered both of these liberties to be so closely linked that they support each other in the most fundamental understanding of freedoms.

For all practical purposes, the U.S. Constitution itself is essentially inviolate and cannot be altered due to requirements of majority vote to effect a constitutional amendment. But it can be back-doored, outflanked through the use of “regulation,” by legal system stonewalling and  bureaucratic rule. Obfuscation and subterfuge, political sleight of hand, and before anyone knows, bingo — you just lost another liberty.  Proof positive that, sans your health care and EPA ruling, your breath is a toxic gas (no insult intended).  Removing one word from the Clean Waters Act, omitting the word “navigable” from “navigable waters” now permits OUR government to determine that the mud puddle in your driveway is home to some critter which they placed on an endangered species list in order to divest you of the sovereign ownership of your land.

The assault on your arse is rather painful. Here is a list if you need clarification:  your land, your job, your retirement, your body, your health, your children’s education, your choice of vehicle, your health insurance, your choice of entertainment, your food, your right to defend yourself, the very air you breathe, all of these things:  your choices are now controlled by YOUR government, all courtesy of a thousand or so people who have decided what YOU will have and not have. What is good for YOU. And now the worldwide web will be controlled by Our socialistic, one-world-order, proxy government. When that becomes a reality, even who YOU vote for will be controlled because there will be no way to talk about it or discover alternatives to what Your government decides is best for You. What’s next? YOUR dignity and pride? Your soul? If You go to heaven or hell? There won’t be much left for You at the rate things are going.

So do you see? Do YOU understand just how important flappin’ those gums is? I do, which is why I’m writing this.

The timeless proverb of the pen as mightier than the sword is truth to power like never before in history.

Watch closely as events unfold.  The assault on free speech is under way, mechanisms that will solidify statist control being put into place as I write this. Look to the authors of legislation created to enable government takeover of every aspect of our lives:  Rockefeller, Boxer, Soros, Pelosi, and Saudi princes, to name only a few. These people are from some of the wealthiest, most elite and corrupt families in the world, the centers of power that are acting to take the power of we the people.

Make no mistake, greed and avarice, the fuel of those who wish for ever more power, are a result of two fundamental human evils: control over others and money.  These minions of darkness have no compunction against committing injustices against any and all in the interest of more wealth and power for themselves. No heart or courage resides in these people; they are imposters and false prophets of what is good for You.  For them the end always justifies the means. Why do you suppose they are rich and powerful in the first place?

What do men with power and money want? More power and money. “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

Today you are a victim of these forces of evil intent. All across our land, we are experiencing a malaise which is multi-pronged, from staggering unemployment, ever-increasing costs for the most basic needs, the stampede of corporate manufacturing and innovation to other nations, economy-crushing national debt, attempted government control of medical care, loss of sovereignty over your land; all while the mainstream media, whose singular purpose is to be a propaganda arm of dissimulation and distraction from the elite’s dirty tricks and ultimate destiny of subjugation of we the people into a nation of servitude, keeps the elites rich and powerful.

This is war, brothers and sisters. The cold war between good and evil has come home to roost. The faces of repressive rule have been changed from Soviet-supported socialism to wealthy, greedy citizens of Your country.

Look around, scan your horizon. Do you see any liberty or wealth or self-determination being created? Where is your prosperity? Who has the well-paying jobs? Everywhere there is loss and stagnation for honest people. Take a look at the stock markets; who is making money? Is it you? Was it ever? Your investment tanked, your hard-won, honestly earned dollar was cannon fodder for blue sky wealth generals fighting for supremacy among other elitists. Your investment evaporated in a New York minute. Yet the ones who reside in the rarefied upper levels of society seem to be doing as well or better than ever. Even you who have gainful employment, do you have faith that it is secure?

It doesn’t take rocket science to see we are being cheated six ways to Sunday by the privileged and rich. Garnering such wealth and power requires cheating or stealing someone out of his. There is only so much gold to go around. Ninety percent of the wealth is in 10% of the hands. Not much left for the greedy. Why do you think the money presses are going full-tilt? Whom do you think runs the Federal Reserve Banking system?: Timothy F. Geithner , as an active member of the Bilderbergs and the gang of Thirty, these elites are essentially running our monetary policy in secret. It certainly ain’t the single mom who makes nine bucks an hour and has three boys and a girl to raise. You want to know what fiscal responsibility is?  Read her checkbook ledger.  I bet it is figured to the penny until the next paycheck, if there is one.

“What is mine is mine and what is yours is mine” is the battle cry of the elite. It is the way.

Here is a sublime comment from a moderator who scans through hundreds of blog comments a day posted by YOU. This guy put in plain words that make no mistake as to the truth of the power of free speech:

Why do we love our work? Wally says it best: “Freedom, liberty and independence are enemies of the left and always have been. They fear information. A knowledgeable public is not what the left wants. As moderators, we help American Thinker provide the platform for the information that the left hates to have out there”

Please don’t stop for one second you guys. Give it to them but good, fight the good fight. Give no quarter nor expect it in return.

Here is a few parting words of wisdom from two souls who believed with all their hearts in people and the greatness they are capable of:

In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. From time to time we’ve been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? Ronald Reagan, January 20, 1981

If an American is to amount to anything he must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in his own work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others. He must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can, and accept defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow man a responsibility which is not theirs. -Theodore Roosevelt
