The Insurgency - Michael Lotus at RightNetwork

I haven't had much to say this week... Just busy reading blogs, conservative news sites and waiting for spring to bloom down here in the southern hemisphers. The south island here in NZ has had a really cold spring with winter storms killing thousands of baby lambs. NZ farmers should know by now as each year (like past 15) gets a bit colder than the next... there is no global warming, but NZ and world leftist media keeps pushing it... for the $$ only. $$ didn't help the thousands of baby lambs last week who froze to death, did it...

But I prefer optimistic news stories better than pessimistic ones. That damn glass is half full already... In the USA, the next 6 weeks until the Nov 2010 elections and the next 2 years until the 2010 elections will be interesting as "the insurgency" grows. Check out this article by Michael Lotus over at Right Network:

"Mass political movements often begin with a single, striking event. The Insurgency began in the fall of 2008, when President Bush, Senator Obama, and Senator McCain appeared together to endorse the TARP bailout. At that moment the lights came on for many Americans. It was glaringly obvious that both political parties jointly operated the system, and the system existed to protect the well connected at the expense of everyone else. The public opposed the TARP bailouts; the banks got their money anyway. The Insurgency, long brewing, began.

The Insurgency is a movement of citizens directed against unsustainable government taxation and regulation, and spending, both of which benefit insiders rather than ordinary people. The target of the Insurgency is a leviathan in Washington, D.C. that will ruin us all if it is not dismantled.

The Insurgency is part of a long tradition of mass political movements in our history. It has the potential to make a fundamental change in American life—for the better."

I hope so Michael... America has had completely the wrong kind of change the last 2 years and the last few decades. The ship, listing left, needs to be righted.
