talking to blogging to action

I have no problem speaking with others. I can share events in my life with gusto, as if I am living them all over again. I can also spin a yarn or share something that was told to me by someone that had been told by someone that had been told by someone. I am guessing that, at times, those around me wonder if I will ever shut up. I find it harder, at least as I start, to post a blog because I want to continually reread and change what I have typed rather than just go with my current thought. I am determined to get to a point that I feel as comfortable sharing in this form as I do when I am sharing one of my life's experiences with those around me. So, bear with me as I get used to this.

I decided to start sharing my thoughts in this form because I believe something needs to be said, and done, as the values that I hold dear come under continuous attack from people and organizations that have far different, or in some instances, no morals or ethics. I am amazed by the lack of interest people have in what is happening in the world around them. Michael Savage has used the term "sheeple" to describe people that follow blindly and unquestioningly. I use the word freely myself as it says so much so easily.

A false sense of security is a free ride to loss of liberty, oppression and control. That is a ride I would rather not take. As Edmond Burke stated "All that's needed for the forces of evil to win in this World is for good men to do nothing". We have seen it numerous times in history and, as we know, history repeats itself.

I do not want to be a fence sitter. I don't want to sit idly by as the world I know passes into a place that is no longer recognizable. I don't want to read the obituary and realize that I have done nothing to stop the plunge. I have been called a pessimist, conspiracy thinker and worrier. Whatever I may be, I cannot allow myself to sit quietly as we move toward a one world socialist oligarchy.

The question I keep asking myself is 'what can I do?'. I am just a guy, working 60 to 80 hours a week and I don't have time to be involved. That is the easy answer.

I must do something. This blog is a start. I welcome input from others as to how I, we, can be involved. I want my country back and I desire to be united with those Patriots that feel the same way.
