General Quarters - All Hands on Deck
General Quarters… General Quarters … This is a Drill …All hands on deck !
How I remember that alarm being sounded aboard ship years ago. It seemed like every time I left the stuffy troop compartment to go up topside to catch a breath of fresh air, grab a smoke, or enjoy a nice hot cup of coffee, the sadistic skipper would invariably sound the General quarters alarm, which would send the sailors scurrying about manning their guns, or posts, in a drill to stave off a non existent enemy attack, while forcing the Marines back down below to their hot stuffy dungeon to wallow around in the stench of the odor of body excrement.
This always perplexed me, as I wondered why we always held General Quarters drills in the middle of the South China Sea, when the North Vietnamese had no navy to speak of, with the exception of a few small patrol boats, or an air force which consisted of a handful of MIG 17’s, plus one Trojan Trainer plane hijacked from the Laotian air force.
An air, or Naval attack, wasn’t much of a threat by the North Vietnamese at that time.
A Somalian pirate vessel wouldn’t have spooked a United States naval captain in those days, he would have blown it out of the water without a second thought.
But than, that naval captain would have been justified because he would have been acting in accordance with the law, and he would have had the full faith and confidence of the American people behind him for trying to protect American’s. They would have viewed his action as a deterrent against harming American’s, which brings me to this point, why is the American government trying to harm it’s people?
Why is the American government attacking the people?
This “Climate Change Bill” forced on the people who strongly oppose it by an overwhelming majority is just the latest example of an out of control government abusing it’s power, acting outside of it’s specified defined powers.
This fiat legislation is an infringement upon our rights, but I haven’t heard any alarms being set off!
This was not a drill but the enemy is present, fully engaged in hijacking our country, yet no alarms have been set off!
Our check and balance system has rendered itself non existent, as well as the judiciary, which has become old, feeble, and subjected to greed. What happened to the alarm system?
Thomas Jefferson warned us that,”To consider the judge as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions is a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.”
Our 535 Congressional clones are sitting in breach of their oath as they betray the people… again.
This Climate Control Farce … or Phony Junk Science Bill, take your pick, is to the Obama administration what the Patriot Act was to the Bush regime.
Twin legislation to infringe upon our liberty and to gut the American way of life.
The diabolical Patriot Act was meant to abridge our freedom, while the Climate Change Bill, was crafted to obliterate our economy. Both Bills were death sentences to American’s, they are meant to abolish our freedom, and to destroy our way of life… and not one alarm had been sounded.
Isn’t it strange how George Bush’s maniacal obsession with the elusive Osama bin- Laden has been transformed over night into an insidious quest for make work “Green jobs,” by a guy who we don’t even know is eligible to hold the office of president, or if he ever held a job, for the very reason that Thomas Jefferson warned us about … treasonous, sticky fingered, degenerate judges.
We are now witnessing the greatest unlawful power grab in history.,, and no alarms you’d think that our representatives all had their tongues cut out.
Our government under the direction of Barack H. Obama, has stuck it’s nose in where it doesn’t belong and meddled in the criminality of abusing and exceeding it’s power by seizing private industry, and private business, without a whimper out of our feckless Congress, or one peep out of the repugnant judiciary, in a usurpation of power outside of it’s delegated authority which is found in Article 1, Section 8, of the United States Constitution.
It’s limited power includes: to lay and collect taxes, pay debts, provide for the common defense,to borrow money on credit of the United States, to regulate commerce between the states, to establish a uniform rule of naturalization and of bankruptcies, to coin money, to provide for punishment of piracies and felonies upon the seas, to declare war and grant letters of marque and reprisal, to raise and support armies, to provide and maintain a navy, to make rules for the regulation of land and naval forces, to provide for organizing, arming, and calling forth the militia, to exercise exclusive legislation over all cases within the District of Columbia, and finally, to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers.
That’s it ! Limited Power … nothing about “green jobs, blow jobs, or anything else against the will of the people. The powers not delegated to the United States by the constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
There is nothing in the Constitution about “Green jobs,” which would displace nine decent paying jobs for each make work green job for an ACORN worker, or for some other subversive agent provocateur beholden to this administration which seeks dictatorial power.
If these tyrants try to tell you any differently they are acting in breach of their oath to uphold the constitution.
Our rule of law needs to be followed and enforced in order to maintain a civil society.
Our laws are not broken, they have been obfuscated by greedy, demented public servants who have forsaken the founding principles of America … a Constitutional Republic … not a dictatorship for a global oligarchy, engaged in a sinister plot of greed.
When the people whom we send to protect our interest, betray us, and do harm to our founding principles, and will not allow the people, the rightful owners of this country, to dissent or ask questions in seeking the truth, then the contract between the government and the people becomes null and void.
These public servants are not fit to hold public office, they need to be uprooted and banished to a life below deck to wallow around in human shit, never to see the outside world again as an object lesson against tyranny.
General Quarters … General Quarters …I’M SOUNDING THE FUCKING ALARM!!!
The enemy is at the gate. If you value your freedom and liberty, you’d better do something about it!

Absolutely the truth! Americans no longer care because our Government has instilled greed into the hearts and minds of all citizens. Illegal Immigrants are sucking us dry and the government allows it. What part of “Illegal” do our politicians not understand? It is not just a part but the entire word as each and every day they perform acts that the american people oppose, therefore, making them illegal. I propose that each election we un-elect the incumbent. Sure, we replace them with a new group of crooks but eventually the message will even be understood by them, “do what the american people want or find yourself looking for a new job”. And, why is a Congressman, serving two yeas in the House of Representatives, elligible for full retirement benefits? America, wake up or fifty years from now the United States, as you know it and love, will no longer exist. No one person is to blame for that, but our Government as a whole. It is a worthless body of leeches, sucking the life blood right out of this country.
