Texas and Alaska to Secede From Union - They Have a Dream

It’s certainly no closely held or concealed cosmic secret that the bulk of Republicans and plenty of Extremoticians” or so called “Libertarians” such as Rand Paul et al, seem to have at least one thing in common, they either detest or immensely dislike the “Here and Now” of today, and literally despise the future. Give them an outhouse minus indoor or even outdoor plumbing which is of course traditionally utilized to deliver waste to an awaiting receptacle, a shoddily constructed log cabin, a whatever caliber pea-shooter or nuclear powered weapon used to exact a reckless furry on a freshly slaughtered supper, and include a no frills, one way ticket back to the 1700’s and all is good in conservative land. Only one problem, the vast majority of sane citizens in good standing who call America our constantly evolving home, enjoy and possibly even worship modern conveniences, which originate from science experiments and contrary to conservative “Regressivism“, we welcome the inherent hope, inspiration, and exciting expectations the future promises.

And even though this brainwashed strain are overtly and presumably covertly pressured into espousing the contrary, an undue influence which is difficult to repel especially in red hot conservative regions such as the deep south, many Republicans if faced with an un-tampered with choice, would indeed select a progressive path forward and willfully join Progressive Democrats in their quest for an enriched way of life for all Americans. Scientific experimentation and discovery is irreversibly embedded in society and that’s absolutely a good thing regardless of the unwillingness of Republicans to accept factual data. Without brilliant Homo-sapien and/or possibly Extra-Terrestrial manipulated terrestrial minds, we as a human, Earth dwelling civilization would have perished eons ago right along side the late but ever so great dinosaurs. Or at the very least we would currently expect a much shorter life span than we anticipate with the inclusion of science generated tools, wisdom, and knowledge.

~ So therein lies the seemingly un-bridgeable political, societal, and cultural conflict. Two tribes, Democrat and Republican, with two undoubtedly irreconcilable postures. A divergent universal belief in values which painfully strains any attempt to converge to achieve any productivity. At least that’s the image Republican figure heads such as Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Rand Paul, et al try so desperately to project onto the general public ~

So here is my common sense generic solution which would conceivably solve this primary issue as well as help to accommodate or smooth out additional chronic peripheral problems. My suggestion is as follows. Let’s encourage two right wing saturated, immovable red states to perform an act which the populous of each had previously embraced and celebrated as a path of virtual contentment ~ The secession of their respective states. A willful or if necessary, a gently coerced action by those who wish to assist and help facilitate this action. A legal pursuit augmented by good faith helpers, to allow republicans residing in these less than stellar locales, surrender United States Citizenship and forfeit sovereign terra-firma in favor of occupying two separate, self contained and self supported loner--nations without interference from evil, devilish, prying governmental personnel, agencies, and/or related entities. Taxes? Forget taxes, in these newly established loner-nations, we as an unwavering regressive clan wish to fend, hunt and gather, fish, and magically create fire for ourselves without intervention nor modicum of assistance. Just like our favorite Hollywood Production “Little House on the Prairie” or “Gunsmoke” or “Big Valley” or any other given fictional television show about the wild, untamed lawless west of ages ago. “Just gift us our separate land, and we shall give you, the United States no allegiance” would be the motto ~ Just leave us the hell alone ~ Think about it for a moment, any individual or entity who expresses an insatiable desire or even passing thought to secede from our tightly woven union of states could in my opinion, and possibly even in the eyes of the law, be considered a person or entity which partakes in treasonous activity right? Can a genuine allegiance to this nation exist within the heart and soul of an individual who ponders or even demands the thought of immediate secession?

So just to recap this somewhat controversial entry, we’ve at least established two distinctly incontrovertible facts. Exhibit A ~ the vast majority of Conservative Republicans, an exceedingly bizarre clan which many including myself have published entries questioning their legitimate human being status, would actually prefer to exist here on planet Earth without a Federal Government, the literal adhesive which is an essential element to tightly bond us as a unified nation. Exhibit B ~ if any individual, citizen or otherwise, or member of a hostile alien contingent dreams or fantasizes about seceding from this united union called America, the national allegiance or patriotism of him, her, or “it” in the case of a group of individuals or quasi individuals, is undoubtedly in question ~ It is virtually impossible to declare unwavering, unconditional patriotism to our flag with one cheek, then immediately reverse course and rabidly espouse a “Secedenist” attitude or agenda, it simply cannot be reconciled nor justified as valid ~

So, the next time a Conservative, sane or otherwise begins a fever pitched narrative about how much he/she despises our government, hates our student loan program, becomes nauseous at the mere thought of delivering un-employment checks to American workers who may have been fired due to no fault of their own, or scoff at a minimum wage hourly rate hike, don’t return fire with a rationally thought out retort, as valid or enlightening as it mat be, simply respond if the words are directed in your general vicinity by asking him/her what you can do as a patriotic American do to help further or expedite the Texas/Alaska secession dream he/she re-runs in his/her mind over and over into perpetuity ~ I guess it’s your duty <>

Media Accepts Governor Rick Perry As Legitimate Presidential Candidate?

It's a rather disturbing awkward television moment to watch Fox News "Anchors" and so called "Reporters" from her sister networks virtually salivate into their clip on microphones every time they air a news byte of Governor Rick Perry, with his god given slow to the drawl "Dubya Bush" impersonation, merely uttering the sacred words "Social Security", "Ponzi Scheme", and "Privatization" in the same chewing tobacco scented breath. It's especially alarming when you calculate the future widespread detrimental financial impact on the majority of Americans including senior citizens, if we as a nation lackadaisically allow the Republican Party, backed by grossly sized Corporate Entities that just happen to be major campaign contributors, to privatize this superbly engineered income program that has supported so many Americans since it's inception in 1935 and cash distributions began in 1940. A conversion from current "Non Profit" status to "For Profit Privatization" would then allow "Fox" and their "Free Enterprise" cohorts to not only control benefit amounts and administration aspects of this essential retirement mechanism until the sum total of distributions to hard working Americans eventually becomes zero, but to also capitalize enormously in monetary consideration as they always seem to do on the sore backs of the working class, by collecting astronomical fund management fees and or commissions for financial transactions as our tax dollars are funneled right back into the pockets of those who already covertly control our lives. Corporate America - 

As workers continue to set aside in good faith, a portion of hard earned monies designed to be available once they reach their golden years, the funds will not continue to be directed into a stable FDIC insured account if privatized as the Republicans are so anxious to do, but sliced up and placed into risky, speculative, uninsured "Wall Street Stock Portfolios" that offer no consumer protection, and or guarantees that it will be there in whole when senior citizens transition from employment phase of life into retirement. The only guarantee I can possibly think of is the following, "If we Privatize the wealthy will once again Monetize". This according to many experts, is just one more of a plethora of important mainstream issues that will ultimately plague Governor Perry as we slowly peel away the seemingly deceitful layers of his Presidential Campaign and begin to uncover his master plan piece by piece which includes an immediate, if humanly possible, dismantling of extremely popular and important social income programs which in turn will severely degrade every hard working Americans quality of life. A vitally important subject briefly touched on in this article, and one that will be covered extensively in the near future right here at "PPF" - 

But now back to exploring the serious issue at hand, the Texas Governors true underlying intentions for his slick oil backed presidential run, and why monitoring and intense scrutiny by the media and independent bloggers is critical in an effort to uncover the entire truth before it's too late. It's essential that we as a nation do all we can to ensure his unconscionable and potentially unconstitutional motives are of his own design and not a product that is influenced by any additional mal-intended radical elements such as the Tea Party. Last I checked, any individual who admits to the fact that he/she would entertain the concept of placing all of his/her constituents in jeopardy and financial hardship by initiating the process of seceding from our tightly knitted United States of America, is by any measure, borderline unlawful at an absolute minimum. Oral remarks made in the recent past which many experts would agree, exhibits apparent disdain and disloyalty toward the very structure and fabric of our democracy. Apparently, according to reports, Mr Perry would be quite satisfied with a loosely intertwined collection of separate land masses called "The States" where competition between the individual colonies or tribes is essential for survival, verses what our ancestors died for to preserve, "The United States of America" -

Just think about it, seriously, sit down and completely digest his statements and incendiary language contained within. Understand what they actually mean and the potential future consequences regarding this very pressing issue that needs to be addressed by all voters in 2012 and beyond. Take a good look at this Texas Governor's long history of what appear to be preplanned public remarks that would inevitably lead any reasonable American to question his genuine allegiance to this country, and what would really happen if someone of his character was handed the "Federal Government Reigns of Power". A legitimate Presidential Candidate? Or, suspicious inarticulate Texas rancher who will try his best if elected, to systematically undermine the existing social and economic fabric that we as a people have strived so mightily to build and strengthen over the decades? If his underlying inner emotions and feelings dictate the uncontrollable need to verbally express an immediate revocation of his home states longstanding relationship with the union every time the Federal Government does not cower to and comply with his every demand in accordance with how he thinks the country should be run, what do you think will happen if and when he becomes the leader of the free world? "Executive Privilege" and enormous inherent power at his fingertips? Strip the Federal Government down to a literal skeleton crew which would presumably consist of a few oil and gas lobbyists, a gaggle of Constitutional Lawyers personally commissioned by him to burn the proverbial midnight oil in an effort to identify each and every loophole that could be used to immorally deliver even more tax breaks/cash gifts to the wealthy,  personally appointed a partisan "Health Insurance Review Panel" authorized to perform one single solitary task, repeal Medicare and subsequently empower the "Free Market System", which consists of "For Profit" mega insurance companies who have a fiduciary obligation to please shareholders as top priority verses providing quality affordable care to all Americans? How does this sound to you. Handing complete control of Medicare and related health care coverage guidelines and respective policies for all Americans over to profit driven Insurance Companies?

Didn't we already spend 8 excruciatingly painful years with an inarticulate, not so bright, religious zealot Texan President? And how did that work out for the American people once you look past minor mistakes such as him leaving all of us a legacy of trillions in national debt because he felt the wealthiest citizens were falling behind on their race to own the galaxy? If it wasn't so serious it would be ludicrous -

Governor Perry has already expressed in no uncertain terms, via published books and numerous public statements, a proclamation that Social Security and Medicare in his opinion, are both "Ponzi Schemes" and complete "Failures". Two of society's fundamental bedrocks established in 1935 that have provided our senior citizens at time of post employment, with the modest income and health protection necessary to support a comfortable quality of life for the remaining time they have left on this good earth. "Failure"? "Ponzi Scheme"? Tell that to the millions of Americans who have drawn their fair share of benefits, of which they earned subsequent to decades of dedicated hard work and payroll contributions set aside in a secure, zero risk trust account - 

Secede from the union? No more Federal Government sponsored life enhancement programs such as Social Security & Medicare benefits for Texans? Very strong and telling words indeed - 

The media should be asking pertinent questions about his patriotism or lack there of, in a sincere effort to try to determine prior to election day 2012, what his true agenda really is. I realize the press has an obligation to remain as impartial as possible, of course with the exemption of Fox News which is unquestionably a Republican/Tea Party proxy, but when we have a Presidential Candidate who actually entertains a vision of placing millions of Texans in an unprecedented and some would say dangerous position of having their citizenship stripped and social security benefits revoked due to the severing of a legal relationship between state and federal government, the media in my opinion should be all over this one like "Sarah on a Polar Bear Hunting Contest". conducting a continuous probe to explore who this candidate actually is, and the influences behind his radical anti everything American stance -
