Conservative's Blind Support of Our Troops, Adoration of Glenn Beck and Their Unintended Defense of the Big Lie

Unfortunately, the vast majority of the conservative minds in this country have fallen victim to the manipulation of the Big Lie, which is the "War on Terror." It's no more than the modern incarnation of the "War on Poverty", the "War on Cancer", or the "War on Drugs." All of which, I might add, have been colossal failures while lining the pockets and increasing the power of the authoritarian establishment which has benefited from them all.

Ultimately, all the belief in the Big Lie will do is cripple the patriot movement as the outrage against the Democrats and the damage they've done to our nation will increase support for the Republicans. And the fake, NeoCon "conservatives" will once again be swept into power. All the while, the hundred-year war rages on as one puppet of the establishment replaces another. This is the purpose and mission of Glenn Beck. He is paid controlled opposition designed to further the establishments goals - not to re-ignite the spirit of the American freedom fighter. Quit buying into the Big Lie. You're smarter than that.

And ask yourself the next time you blindly cheer in support of our troops, "who is benefiting from this?" Is it the country and citizens of Iraq or Afghanistan? Is it the believers of the essentially peaceful Islamic religion? Is it our troops coming home maimed, traumatized, poisoned and in body bags? Or is it Halliburton, KBR, BP Amoco, Exxon Mobil, CACI, Dyncorp, Blackwater, L3 Communications, Raytheon, Titan , GE, McDonnell Douglas and so on and so on....? Is it our federal government who has since 2001, gutted our Constitution in a power grab never before seen in American history? Who has benefited? Follow the money. Seek the TRUTH.

And if you really do support the troops, fight, with everything you have to end these illegal wars of aggression and empire-building so that we can bring them home to do what they're sworn to do: protect our borders from foreign invasion, and protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America!

I am not a writer. I am an American. I am simply someone who is fed up with the establishment , the "elite" and the way things are not only in this country, but around the world. I am also fed up with the apathy, ignorance and arrogance of much (more...)
