Notice

I am not shutting down Lighthouse Journal, but need to turn more attention elsewhere. Most of the posts will be at Old Glory Gunsmith Shoppe. Blogger is more receptive to the needs of blogs and bloggers, so that is the major reason. I am not moving this bog again, so it will remain with dwindled new postings.

Thanks so much for your readership, I hope you will find my other blog as interesting and informative. Since I love to write about history, and feel obligated to write about unconstitutional acts committed by government – they will appear at OGG Shoppe.

This was my first blog and has been running since 1999. It makes it harder to let go for that reason and the many friends I made along the way. Time to set it aside, out of the limelight. I am not sure if I made a difference in providing folks information and tidbits that may have awakened some and reinforced any fervor of We the People making any change to where we are back on the course of a constitutional republic. Hopefully I did.

Quotations From Masters of Hypocrisy

Anyone who is against the Obama policies, domestic and foreign, and think his administration is highly corrupted is a racist. Anyone who believes that homosexuality is: (1) a sin, (2) unnatural, (3) just plain disgusting; and do not want their children around the morally corrupted individuals are homophobic. Anyone who can see and know the truth about Islamic Jihadism, recognize the jihadist hatred and violence doctrine, see that they cry for tolerance and dish out intolerance; who is infiltrating the western world not to assimilate but to subjugate, and whose agenda is world domination with a world government of theocracy under Sharia Law is Islamophobic. The following statements have been made by the same people who constantly bring racism and intolerance to the forefront of conversation and falsely accuse others.

Congressional Elections and Voting Responsibility

This is the year that the Republicans can gain Senate majority, but the RINOs must go in order to do what is needed to be done and that list includes the Speaker of the House, Boehner.
The two major actions needed to be focused upon is the immigration amnesty issue and Obamacare – added to the TARP issue to institute a debt ceiling, stop the Internet tax bill and start doing something about Benghazi.

Ann Coulter wrote in her article that the last three items are not as important; but I disagree. In fact the list is not complete. Ms. Coulter seems to think that a senator or representative cannot walk and chew gum too. And if they cannot – they do not belong in Congress.
A Constitutional Convention needs to be enacted in order to repeal the 16th Amendment and get rid of the income tax system and the IRS power once and for all.
Right now, as Republicans are preparing for election or reelection, some are once again faking loyalty to the Tea Party cause. They did the same thing last election.
It is time that RINO Republicans who say one thing and do another become harder to find in the seats of Congress, and it is up to you, the voters to do it. Yes, Democrats have to be replaced, their political club is rift with corruption and there is not any among them worth the money they are paid. But Republican members need to perform some soul-searching and decide if they are going to be constitutionalists or just political whores and wind bags.
And, to Ms. Coulter: You may not think it is an important issue concerning Internet taxation by federal government, but it is not just collecting MORE taxes from already financially strapped America – it is about gaining control of the last bastion of freedom – the Internet.
There are many issues on the table because We the People have not taken our responsibility as voters seriously. We have relied too much upon the media, who indirectly decides who wins primaries and how elections turn out. It is way past the time that We the People need control, and that cannot happen when voters think it does not matter who they vote for because they are all crooks. That is a cop-out and admittance to the fact that if government is filled with corruption, ultimately the blame falls upon those who put them in office.
Voters should be as careful about voting as one would be purchasing an automobile or a home – you need to ensure you get your money’s worth.

Hillary for President? Think About It

Hillary Rodham Clinton was on the legal team that brought down Richard M. Nixon, but unlike her husband, he chose to resign instead of impeachment hearings. It was all over a cover-up and alleged targeting political opponents with the powers of the IRS. According to a poll, she leads at 61% for Democrat candidate of 2016. Frightening. She has been involved with a myriad of scandals across the span of her political (and legal) career on the coattails of her corrupt husband. She has taken a stand on her own, of course, as senator and then Secretary of State – but nothing to brag about there, except an obscure socialist book entitled It Takes a Village.

Core of the Tea Party: What It Represents and What You Should Expect From YOUR Government

Listening to pundits and politicians, progressive that is, and reading commentary of fellow Americans who believe the media propaganda that the Tea Party movement is a racist and violent movement against government. In the case of the latter statement, that is in truth – Tea Party patriots are against any other government except that which the founders created by framing the Constitution of the United States as a constitutional republic based upon written law in those articles and amendments.

The Tea Party was organized to ensure that there is a return to that which was founded and worked so well in making America great and something its people can be proud of, but have failed for various reasons to keep it – as Benjamin Franklin pessimistically stated. So this is a type of follow-up of the last article, this time standing up to the progressive socialists and those who listen to them, whether they be pundits, politicians, or politically biased media …

Return of Jeb: Another Bush Seeking Presidency

After the Republican Party elite establishment used the Tea Party organization of Americans wanting a constitutional republic in order to get votes and when their poster-boy establishment pick did not win (he lost because he cannot debate or stand up to the fire) – that same establishment threw the Tea Party under the bus and blamed them for losing the election.

Now the third of the Bush clan is looking to run for president in 2016, his campaign agenda focusing upon defeating “It takes a village” Hillary Rodham Clinton, who threw Ambassador Stevens and company under the boss costing their lives.

Mark Alexander’s “You MIght Be a LIberal” (“Progressive”) List

Winston Churchill understood, like later Margaret Thatcher preached about socialism and Marxism:

The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings. The inherent virtue of Socialism is the equal sharing of miseries. … Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy.

Churchill didn’t trust Stalin for he knew the only reason why he joined the Allies instead of the Axis is because Hitler reneged upon the treaty between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union to carve up Europe between them.
