    If patriotism is the virtue of the vicious,Then liberty is the battle cry of the ignorant.- David Alan Smith

    Definition of Patriotism Oxford English Dictionary:

    Love for one's ancestry, culture or homeland is the root meaning of patriotism. Derived from the

    Greekkputrios ("of one's fathers") orpatris(one's fatherland") a patriot is one who disinterestedly

    or self-sacrificingly exerts himself to promote the well-being of his country."

    A patriot is "one who maintains and defends his country's freedom or rights."

    While we tend to think of a patriot as a person who puts his country first in opposition to another

    country, originally the term meant one who supported the rights of "country" or "land" against the

    King and his court.

    In other words, a patriot stood for the rights of local self-government and was opposed to

    tyrannical rule-even by his own king. Thus, true patriotism is the impulse to defend one's land,

    country or way of life against unjust governmental oppression.

    Dictonary.com definitions of liberty:

    1.freedom from arbitrary or despotic government or control.

    2.freedom from external or foreign rule; independence.

    3.freedom from control, interference, obligation, restriction, hampering conditions, etc.; power or

    right of doing, thinking, speaking, etc., according to choice.

    4.freedom from captivity, confinement, or physical restraint: The prisoner soon regained his liberty.

    5.permission granted to a sailor, especially in the navy, to go ashore.

    Just as words have more than one meaning, their common usage is a factor of just how the

    particular definition came into existence. What I understand a word to mean does not necessarily

    mean the same to you. I refer to this condition of social acceptance of certain words because the

    power of words when used improperly or intentionally misused as a tool of political gain can have

    devastating consequences to all if not recognized as such.

    From Ben Johnson..."Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel."

    Similarly, from Thoreau, "Patriotism is a maggot in their heads."

    George Bernard Shaw has said..."You'll never have a quiet world till you knock the patriotism out of

    the human race."

    Oscar Wilde said "Patriotism is the virtue of the vicious."

    Leo Tolstoy described patriotism as "the principle that will justify the training of wholesale

    murderers".

    These examples of how a few great men identified with uncommon definitions of the word

    patriotism. There meaning should be self evident to the reader, if not, perhaps a search on these

    quotes on the web will fill in what you need to know.

    This is why men run off to battle, kill and devastate entire countries without the least amount of

    care for how inhumane their actions really are, as long as they think they are doing this for a higher

    good, like patriotism. If they understood what the original meaning of patriotism really was, as in

    the above definition, which is a response to ones defended ones own landfrom their own

    oppressive government.

    The next word to look at is democracy.

    If you were to look at the definitions of this word in Wikipedia, you would come up with over 30

    different meaning for the same word. Thirty! Now imagine if I asked you to give me thirty different

    definitions for the word cup, you couldnt do it. Why do you think there are so many completely

    different definitions for this word? Its because men have found that to change the minds of men, it

    simply is a matter of redefining what they think they already know!

    I will spare you a long explanation of these various meanings, you can go to Wikipedia and find out

    for yourself just what they are.

    But for my purposes here it is important to understand this following:

    We do NOTlive in a democracy. A brief study of the four Organic Laws of our founding structure of

    government would put that fallacy to rest. In not one of these laws, which are the Declaration of

    Independence, the Articles of Confederation, The Northwest Ordinance and the Constitution of the

    united States of America, does the word democracy appear.

    It may shock some to know that George Washington was appalled and very much concerned with

    the infiltration of the Jacobean influences into the Masonic meeting halls where much of what

    was drafted into our legal system was created. This influence as he noted was of a Democratic or

    what we would know today as a socialist kind of governing model.

    Yet you will hear the word democracy or Democratic bantered around as if we mustsubscribe

    to this political term as it is being applied. The problem is it is not the right word to describe ourform of government, and those who founded this country fought to prevent a democratic form of

    rule, because they saw it a form ofmob mentality.

    Likewise when we see, read or hear the word Liberty we have this image of Patrick Henrys

    passionate plea, Give me liberty, or give me death! What many fail to realize is this: Patricks

    purpose was to agitate the people to rebellion. He was not so much concerned with the finer

    points of what liberty was or was not; he chose his words wisely, to rally people behind a concept

    which at that time they understood.

    Those days were days of monarchs, of kings, queens, royalty and Pontiffs. Only wildlife shared

    what we would call freedom back then. Every form of institutional control over the mass of

    humanity was employed by force of arms, in other words, you were born a slave and you died a

    slave, even though many would like to argue that they were not, but unless they wore a crown they

    were the property of the monarch.

    The original use of the word liberty has its provenance in the navy or maritime structure of

    control. If a sailor wanted to have some free time off at a port after a long time at sea, if so ordered

    by the commander of the vessel, he would be accorded liberty or a brief time away from the ship

    to himself, with the full understanding that it was only a brief leave of absence and then he would

    have to return to his ship and responsibilities under the command of the ships captain.

    Ask any veteran Navy sailor today, and hell tell you exactly what liberty is.

    In medieval times it referred to land that was free from the rule of the king, but with reservations,

    of course.

    So, if we ever hope to grasp the reins of our own fate in this republican form of government, we

    need to re-examine our vocabulary as it pertains to every aspect of our legal system which has goneamuck.

    Before anyone reading this begins to froth at the mouth over my version of history presented here,

    let me in no uncertain terms state that I am not a member of the American Communist Party or the

    American Socialist Party or any other wacked out subversive organization. Parties should be for

    what the word suggests, having a good time and nothing more, certainly not intervening into the

    affairs of State. My intention is to educate or inform those willing to open their minds from the

    indoctrination we all have been forced to accept as factual when in reality, much of what we have

    been taught through both public and private educational institutions was nothing but propaganda.

    History is written by the victors. - Winston Churchill.

    Winstons quote, when taken completely objectively reveals that all victors have their own

    version of the truth, including our own good ol US of A. When one understands this without

    emotional conflicts, it provides a fertile ground for re-planting the seeds of just what is going on

    today, because it has been going on for literally thousands of years.

    How many times have you been told that the world is coming to a financial collapse? CNN vomits

    out the constant dribble of cookies cutter informational babble under the pretense of providing the

    viewer with up to the minute information. All news is edited journalism, its not the reality thats

    going on in the world, its Brand Xs version of reality, and whats edited out of what you never see is

    the real news, you just didnt see it on TV.

    Dont you find it puzzling that with the amount of highly trained individuals masquerading as

    congressmen, pundits and financial experts, not one unified agreement of what is at the core of

    this economic boondoggle? Could it be possible, that as a group of individuals who all have vested

    interests in maintaining the status quo, they all are enjoying personal security in this socialistic

    system of government, and they want you fat, dumb and stupid?

    After all, of all the current crop of criminals in our congress today (District of Criminals), over 90%

    of them are lawyers. I am not against all lawyers, in fact I know of some very decent people who just

  • 7/28/2019 Liberty Isn't Everything It's Cracked UP to Be.

    5/8

    happen to be members of the bar. Which, by the way is shortfor British Accredited Registry, a

    corporate subsidiary of the British Crown, is it not? What I am pointing out here is this: Lawyers

    speak legalese, all others speak English, or some other ethic language. Legal reference books, such

    as Blacks Law Dictionary (there have been many iterations of it), choose to make common words

    mean very uncommon things. Take for example, human being, if you think you know what that

    means, check it out on Blacks and you will find that it means monster.

    If you spend some time in such books, you will come across an entirely different world desribed in

    legal terms than you would have ever thought possible. The reasons behind this is clear, if you are

    illiterate or incompetent then you need a lawyer to re-present you since you cannot yourself.

    So we come back to vocabulary. We have been educated in our public schools to learn to read, but

    we havent been taughthow to read. If this method of learning was intentional, as I believe it was,

    then it should evident to all that the way out of our confusion is to re-educated ourselves, to

    become aware of all the false teachings that have been laid at our feet, for generations.

    For most, this will not only be impossible, it will be undesirable. The majority of Americans believe

    that they are free. They believe the myths and stories of how this country was founded and theytrust their government not to do them harm. I wonder for how long? Nothing is free, everything

    comes a cost, but this shouldnt be a problem, unless of course you are too lazy to pick yourself up

    out of your comfort zone and learn something new.

    What the people expect, the people get. When politicians found a way get more votes on the

    promise that everyone needs and should have a brand new home, then the laws were opened up to

    allow for all the chicanery that came about to happen. What greases the wheels of congress is the

    same stuff you spend your entire lives working for to pay your bills.

    Does anyone today really stop to look at where all this green stuff comes from?

    Thomas Jefferson said, I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than

    standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency,

    first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks]

    will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their

    fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to

    whom it properly belongs.

    Does it matter to any of the majority of Americans who prefer to be fat, dumb, and stupid that their

    founding father actually foresaw todays financial disaster before it happened? And not only did he

    foresee the problem, he specifically identified who the perpetrators were and how they would

    manage to destroy America. I suppose that until the last shoe drops, everything is just hunky-dory.

    America in not in debt, the U.S. Government is. But the government is the people, right? Wrong!When you were sleeping, America morphed into the Land of the Free-Trade no longer the land of

    the free and the brave. What we all have done is let the lawyers in DC pull a smoke and mirrors

    over the public in creating legislation that redefined this United States of America to the United

    States, a corporation which replaced republicanism as our form of government. As a corporate

    state, stockholders are the new citizens, and the public is no longer part of the equation.

    To be sure, every bit of this sleight of hand was done unconstitutionally. But whatever Lola wants,

    Lola gets, as the song goes. Unless enough of us make objections to this, within the framework of

    our own judicial processes which are now and always have been available to us to pursue, then the

    cockroaches win. Its all there in the four Organic Laws of our countrys original charter.

    This is not a very pretty picture, but it is only as accurate as it remains intact as such. The

    foundations of our form of government are, by its own construction and acceptance by the States, is

    self perpetuating, and are alive and well. What is needed is an educated populace, not what we have

    today. This is only going to change when we, as individuals, not Republicans or Democrats or any

    other party take back from the banks what Jefferson warned us of, over 250 years ago.

    I have to say here and now that I am not against banks, as with lawyers, there are good bankers and

    there is the other kind, the kind that would sell their mother for a profit. To those bankers, we are

    pawns in their game of world domination. We are the slaves, always were and always will be.

    So where do we go from here?

    In 1913, in a secret meeting on Jekyll Island, South Carolina, Americas fate was sealed. The creation

    of the Federal Reserve Bank was the brainchild of a handful of Americas wealthiest bankers, and

    through their cronies in Congress sold the American public that this was in fact a branch of our

    government, and not a private corporation, which it was, and still is today.

    Yes, its called the FederalReserve Bank, but so is FederalExpress. Do you think that Fed-Ex is a

    private corporation; you bet it is, so is the Federal Reserve Bank. The biggest lie of all is that it is

    NOT Federal and it has no Reserves whatsoever. It is a cartel (where have you heard that word

    before, think Columbia?) in contract with the U.S. government to loan money at interest back to the

    government, in other words, an instrument of debt. Debt, not money, debt!

    So when you reach into your wallet and pull out a dollar bill and hand it over to a cashier in

    exchange for goods or services, you have just created more debt which under the present contract

    with the government, has to be paid back. If the general public truly understood what kind of

    monetary system we are all shackled to and subject to grand theft at every turn, maybe then we

    might begin to have a chance to change it, but not before.

    One can read hundreds, no thousands of articles by financial experts on whats wrong with the

    economy and how hopeless it is. Some are bold (stupid) enough to suggest we need to just bite the

    bullet and pay more taxes to get ourselves out of the mess we are it. Unless these experts

    understand that we have no monetary system, only a system of debt, the million and one solutions

    will all fail, this is inevitable.

    There are a few individuals such as Ellen Hodgson Brown and Walter Burien, who know the score

    and have attempted to enlighten the public as to what is really going on, but their message is barely

    being heard. Why not, you ask? For the simple reason that with the amount of profit being made by

    the Central Banks all over the world, and the Mother of all banks, the BIS (Bank of InternationalSettlements) in Basil, Switzerland, is too good a thing to have undone by the 97% of the planet who

    suffer under its dominion.

    The problem is made even worse by the millions of hard working stiffs who only believe what they

    are told on CNN or some other form of established news source. It may sound ridiculous, but I truly

    believe that if the world ended right this second, no one would believe it really happened until they

    saw it on CNN! Talk about virtual reality!

    Thats why things are in such a financial mess globally today. Words are being returned to us with

    their true meaning, people are slowly opening their eyes and their minds to the truth that has been

    concealed from us for generations. You cannot have a banking system based on nothing but the

    trust of the bankers and have it work, and if you have banking system that uses debt as money, they

    all you really have is a fairytale existence, doomed to fail from the start.

    Perhaps that chunk of forged iron, the Liberty Bell, was destined to foretell the demise of liberty in

    this country and open the way to freedom for all. The two names on the bell, Pass and Stow were

    the men who attempted to patch up the crack so it wouldnt continue to rip apart the bell when

    rung. It seems appropriate that today we can pass on the concept of liberty, and stow away false

    impressions of what liberty means and move ahead to reclaim our goals of a country where the

    pursuit of happiness is rightfully achieved by those who create it for and by themselves.

    God bless America, and for heavens sake, read your history!
