The Liberty Movement

  • There is no pain you are receding
    A distant ship smoke on the horizon
    You are only coming through in waves
    Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown
    The dream is gone
    And I have become
    Comfortably numb.
    ~ Pink Floyd, “The Wall”

    What red-blooded American wouldn’t be on board with a “Liberty Movement”? I mean it’s sort of like asking you if you want to be part of the “Oxygen Movement”, or the “Breathing Movement” you know? And yet, it seems that the fate of Liberty is once again in the hands of the proud and the few.

    I can understand the complacency, I really can. After all, this is America…the strongest most powerful nation on the face of the earth! Up until a few short years ago, I myself would have questioned the sanity of anyone who felt the need to defend liberty here of all places. I mean liberty is like oxygen and breathing here…you don’t question and never doubt it because it is just as inherent in the fiber of our day-to-day living…as it has always been.

    And then one day, an election happens. No big deal…they happen a lot here. Well, it was the first black President in the land of the free…home of the brave though. Trouble is, everyone was looking at the color and nobody was looking at the man behind the color! Slowly but surely…incrementally they came. A policy here, an idea there…a Czar for this and a Czar for that. Pretty soon the red flags started flyin’ higher than our stars and stripes!

    And then one day I asked myself, “Where is God in all of this?”…and there was no answer…just an empty echo. I reached out to members of the clergy and there was still no answer…just an empty echo…like the scene in the Godfather when Michael goes to visit his father in the hospital and there’s no one there because they pulled the guards. I thought how can this be? This was the biggest and reddest flag of all for me personally.

    As it has been said, the blessings we have all taken for granted all these many years were the blessings of a consecration that no longer exists! But God has not abandoned us…We asked him to leave and he has obliged, leaving his shepherds and his flock to the wolves of their own choosing. As Mike Krieger writes in the piece linked below, knowing is a burden. Behold the painful truth:

    Cardinal Archbishop of Chicago, Joseph Bernardin, a Marxist plant and actual, real-life Satanist, who participated in satanic rituals, “black masses”, orgies and child rape also happened to be the benefactor to one Barack Hussein Obama as well as his link to Saul Alinsky! These facts are revealed in Phyllis Schlafly’s new book, “No Higher Power”.

    Ann has more to say (big surprise) about these shocking revelations here; http://barnhardt.biz/ If you are not fearful for your liberty yet, you may wish to check your pulse (before Obamacare kicks in!) http://www.zerohedge.com/news/guest-post-ignorance-bliss-so-go-back-sleep
