“THE TEN THINGS YOU CAN’T SAY IN AMERICA”: PLEASE BRACE BECAUSE I AM GOING TO SAY THEM

Well, not say them, since they have already been said, in Larry Elder’s book under the above-mentioned title, so it would be more accurate to say that I will be repeating them, knowing ahead of time that, by doing so, I will be inviting the “heat,” which, if you have been paying attention to the weather, you know we could use plenty of, since global warmer does not seem to be working out for us. As a southerner, who moved to the North, you can have this cold weather, this snow, and Al Gore. I’d much rather have the heat, thank you very much. In fact, I seek it, welcome it, because heat doesn’t bother me, whether it comes from weather conditions, or people running the usual hot air campaigns, making noise, without any facts.

It is this noisemaking that helps keep the spiraling out of control conditions going in this country, threatening to turn this country upside down on its head, if, indeed, that is not already the case. Like the economy, which has already collapsed, but is propped up by $75-$85 billion dollars each month to make it appear that what these politicians are saying about a recovery is real, we are, likewise, propping up our public discourse, much of which is nothing but nonsense, to make it appear that this nonsense is also real.

America, today, is not real. Yes, there are declared boundaries which say this country consist of 50 States (not 57, which is the number President Obama thought made up the United States), but beyond set borders, is even that real? Members of Congress are constantly talking about immigration reform, never about enforcing immigration laws, and you never hear these politicians talk about this country’s national sovereignty. So, while there are defined national boundaries, those boundaries are not even real, but a forerunner of the conditions that exist within those borders.

This country practices what is called “political correctness,” because the people in the country have declared war on the truth. Anything being said today, in this country, needs to be taken with a bag of salt, forget about a grain of sodium chloride, with what is being said, this problem requires much more. America has become a nation of liars, and none exemplify this fact more than the politicians in Washington. Anyone who believes anything these politicians say is a candidate for Bellvue. Indeed, when dealing with members of Congress, here is only one sane way to deal with them, which is the cogent title of one of Peter Schweizer’s books, “Throw Them All Out." If you are not talking about throwing them out, you are not talking about Washington, but about the mirage of Washington, created by the politicians in Washington.

I am convinced that American society today, basically, is an artificial society; very little is real within its borders, and until that is understood, addressed, and effectively dealt with, ending what is a country spiraling out of control, is not only impossible, but unthinkable. We are witnessing a nightmare, and we are in it, with our eyes wide shut. It is time to open our eyes, not just raise our eyelids. The following are listed as a small token of my appreciation for the truth, which I consider the items below to be within that context. Each represents the title of one of the chapter sin Larry Elder’s book.

1. “Blacks Are More Racist than Whites.” [I have no interest, here, in being told about the Klan, of yesteryears past.]

2. “White Condescension Is as Bad as Black Racism.” [White condescension, is racism, in disguise.]

3. “The Media Bias---It’s Real, It’s Widespread.” [The media is the fourth most dangerous institutionalized force in this country, and brought down an American President, it despised, in 1975, which amounted to a coup de’ tat in this country.]

4. “The Glass Ceiling---Full of Holes.” [Any “glass ceiling, today, is the product of “political correctness.”]

5. “America’s Greatest Problem: Not Crime, Racism, or Bad Schools---It’s Illegitimacy.” [The courts have confused family with the right to love whom one chooses. There is not only a break-down of the family in this country, but the term can no longer be defined within the context of present social conditions.]

6. “There Is No Health-Care ‘Crisis.’” [The preceding was written, in 2000, when Elder’s book was published. It is correct to say, today, the crisis is the one created today by Washington politicians.]

7. America’s Welfare State: The Tyranny of the Statist Quo.” [Notice the word, statist, is not status. Elder is pointing to the agenda behind the Welfare State.]

8. “Republicans Versus Democrats---Maybe a Dime’s worth of Difference.” [Not that much, in fact, maybe a penny’s worth of difference. Both groups hate the Tea Party because they know they are political awake, and pose a threat to what is nothing but a political club in Washington.]

9. “The War Against Drugs Is Vietnam II: We’re Losing This One, Too.” [Statists never learn. They tried to regulate what one puts in his/her own body in 1918, with Prohibition. They’re back, in full force, and losing again, but don’t expect them to go away.]

10. “Gun Control Advocates---Good Guys with Blood on Their Hands.” [Not good guys, bad guys; they don’t advocate gun control where they are, just where our children are, and it is this fact that places their hands in the blood of these children who have been slaughtered in school by madmen coming to school, through the front door, with rifles, not taken down until they have wreaked havoc on the most innocent members of society, ended, if you will, only after some other rifles show up, or these cowards end their own lives.]

I take It that Larry Elder has heard the song, “Let’s Give Them Something To Talk About.” I think it is about love. It is also about heat.
