I’ve seen many posts like this one today, from Antonia Litsinger:

“Well, I’m not going to get into the classic insanity mode – doing things over and over and expecting different results. I’m done with this whole political shit. It was fun for a while and I met a whole bunch of great people in the liberty movement. Let the crooks and the deviants have it. I’ve withdrawn my consent and am turning my back to them all.”

This is good. This is someone waking up. This is someone – and there are many of them – who has put a real effort into changing things for the better through the political system. Many have been doing it since 2007, some even longer. And while some will continue the fight, continue working to get “good people” into bad offices, others are starting to look a little…

For the frequency with which the United States launches drone strikes abroad, often killing civilians as a result, write-ups in the mainstream news aren’t always easy to spot. A smartphone developer wants to change that, but Apple isn’t interested.

Drones+, the latest endeavor from Brooklyn-based app developer Josh Begley, provides information from real and reputable news sources about executions conducted by unmanned, remote-controlled aircraft from high in the sky, the likes of which has become a hallmark of America’s wars abroad and has come with a daunting tally of deaths, both intended and collateral.

Yesterday, Karen and Billy Vaughn, parents of Aaron Carson Vaughn, spoke at theDefending the Defenders forum sponsored by the Tea Party Patriots outside the RNC Convention in Tampa. Karen brought a copy of the form letter they were sent following their son’s death.

What does this say about a president who is too busy campaigning, destroying the country and infringing upon the liberties of a nation to (i) add a personal touch and (ii) personally sign letters to the families of those who have given of themselves…

MCNAUGHTON ART

…I am just one person, a citizen of this country using my first amendment rights to speak out through my art.  This is my declaration that we have never had a president do more to harm our country than Barack Obama. 

To those who scoff or wish to trivialize this painting, I challenge you… I DARE YOU… study the links of the various symbols and metaphors that you see.  There are over 60 in the painting.  No person can analyze this image and learn about these facts and still, in good conscience, vote for Obama in 2012….

As usual, McNaughton has a lot to say, therefore, to get the full effect and to understand McNaughton’s latest work, please visit his site here.

Awe-inspiring.  Just when I decide that McNaughton’s latest work is his best yet, this most talented and blessed patriot produces another work that exceeds his…
