Reverse Hypochondria

Most medical doctors in the west are acutely aware of the medical condition hypochondria and its impact on certain patients.  Many consider it to be a manifestation of psychosomatic conditioning.  Regardless, the affect on the patient is the same: if he thinks he's sick, he will be sick.  Most of us know at least one such person.  They always complain about their health, and they always seem to be down with something or other.   Some folks deride the whole mind-over-body notion, holding onto western medicine's hyper-focused technological physical diagnosis, and ultimately its prognosis as well.  And it seems that western medicine's prognosis is always drug related.  I'm not slamming drugs, but Americans sure do take a boat load of them.  Is it really necessary?

A few doctors I know and some others I've read are beginning to put more credence into what is called holistic medicine.  Holistic medicine is defined as the applied consideration of the complete person, physically, psychologically, socially, and spiritually, in the management and prevention of disease.  Wellness maintenance, as it were.  A practitioner in this discipline would need to be well versed in medicine, psychology and metaphysics, and would treat a patient giving equal consideration to body, mind and spirit.  Sounds very much like another Trilogy we've heard of, doesn't it?  And as many western doctors are becoming more aware of the genesis of dis-ease, they have to make their diagnoses on more than just the physical body.  Just one hypothetical example would be a heart patient who is otherwise healthy and active.  But in further examination, the doctor finds the patient's home life is chaotic and stressful.  How would he treat this patient when he knows the patient will return to the very environment that is making him sick?  If the patient were a smoker, the doctor would strongly advise against smoking.  But what can he do in this case?  He would advise the patient of his condition, of course, but moreover would also advise the patient to treat the cause of the situation, as he would treat the affect of the condition.  Simple in concept, yet challenging in solution.

Let's take it a step further.  Suppose said heart patient were advised that he could think - or imagine -  himself well. Most doctors I know, when presented with this as a solution, will take a deep breath and allow that, well, it can't hurt.  But the same doctor will acknowledge hypochondria as having a legitimate impact on health and well being.  Why acknowledge one, but not the other?  Both are the result of the impact the mind can have over the body.  One of many treatments within holistic health is creative visualization.  Creative visualization has been used effectively for millennia.  It just takes application, and oh, yeah, a firm belief that it works.  The patient simply imagines his condition, and then imagines a solution.  The images he creates in his mind don't have to be accurate - they can even be cartoonish - but they have to be done within a relaxed, comfortable and calm state of mind.

In my experience I have seen a marvelous turn around in more than a few serious medical conditions in others to whom I have applied this method.  I know absolutely that this method of healing works, when done properly.   There are several disciplines out there that can be applied, but the path to wellness is not as important as achieving it.  If this interests you, search for a solution that fits your needs and belief system.  It's certainly worth it. 

So if hypochondria is a real self-imposed sickness, wouldn't  the reverse of hypochondria be real self-imposed wellness?   Never doubt the power of your own mind, but be aware as to how you use it.

Internet Surrender

UN bureaucracy on steroids

In two days, on October 1st, oversight and control of ICANN will no longer be conducted by the United States.  That means the Internet will be controlled by foreign governments free to impose whatever restrictions they wish on its use.  When we learn that even democratic German government  pressured Zuckenberg to censor - that means delete -  100,000 posts on Facebook that were essentially anti-Muslim invasion, we have seen what's in store of us, and the true future of the Internet.  Imagine Iran, Saudi Arabia, China or North Korea telling us Internet users what we may say - and what we can't.  Freedom of expression?  Gone.  Anti-government, anti-Muslim viewpoints?  Gone.  Breitbart, Drudge, Limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Alex Jones, every Christian conservative blogger like yours truly?  Gone.  Enterprise sites like Gander Mountain, Gun Broker and others?  Gone.  Even advocacy sites like RNC, NRA, GOA, and scores of others?  Gone.

What's to be done?  Failing congress stopping this - which is laughably unlikely -  let's look to American history to determine a course of action.

When the British became dictatorial and oppressive in the American colonies, the minutemen took them on and killed them.

When the Barbary pirates raided US and international shipping off the coast of northeast Africa, the US Marines came in and killed them.

When Pancho Villa's gang raided and terrorized the southwest US territories, General Pershing went in and killed them.

When Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, the US Navy chased them back across the Pacific and killed them.

When whistle blowers tried to expose the Clinton Crime Machine, someone came in and killed them.

When the Soros backed globalists bought a US presidency and spent eight years trying to crush the constitution and freedoms in the US,  . . . . . .  the end of that story hasn't been written.

Yet.

Round 1: Who Won?

Poles apart politically

The much anticipated first 2016 presidential debate is thankfully over, and it all went very nicely to script.  We did learn three things:  that Hillary seems to be still among the living, that Lester Holt has kept his part of the bargain and will likely remain alive for the short term; and that Donald Trump can endure the vicious ad hominem attacks that passes for debate in the small minds of the Clinton campaign.

After eleven days of intense and private debate preparation -  and most probably with the help of concealed intravenous drip medication - HRC seemed to be back on her game of deceit, misinformation, disinformation and well, outright lies.  In assuring her audience that she was indeed alive, she came across as smug, arrogant, hard and highly condescending.  That school yard  ploy of constantly referring to Mr. Trump by only his first name was so obviously childish that it was embarrassing to the adults in the room.  She was coached, scripted and ready to lie.  I watched with care to see if she could remain conscious for a full hour and a half while standing upright, and remember her lame DC two-step talking points.  She did manage to stay vertical, but several times during the debate, roughly every twenty-five minutes or so, she seemed to falter.  Her face appeared haggard and strained, her voice became forced and monotonic, her movements slowed and posture slumped, and she seemed to struggle to verbally articulate her point.  Then the IV drip would kick in, and she'd be back to the overbearing harpy she really is.  Oh, and the shimmy.  Her animated response to one of Trump's observations went on for just a smidgen longer than necessary. Involuntary neurological short circuit?  Or a planned middle finger gesture mocking those who have questioned her health?

For the Donald, it appeared that he was determined to maintain an adult, respectful and professional demeanor.  He could have ripped her lungs out by factually refuting each and every one of her lies - er, replies - to the leading and heavily weighted in her favor questions from the moderator.  But he didn't.  He let her show the entire world that she had nothing to offer but the continuation of hard left totalitarian ideas and goals that the Kenyan has implemented. He let her show the whole world that she was condescending, spiteful and vicious.  And like a refined gentleman he endured ninety-plus minutes of her sustained ad hominem attacks.  And he allowed her to put him on the defensive, personally.  The world witnessed that her team must have spent a considerable amount of time digging up anything they could find on him, and he let them bring it forward.  Some accusations didn't warrant a response; but some required DJT to acknowledge them and set the record straight.  He nailed her on several points, her lack of ethics and race specifically, eliciting thunderous applause from the audience.  He raised some more pertinent points regarding her "experience"; the political and leadership vacuum left in the middle east that gave rise to ISIS; the treason of selling and exposing state secrets including the exposure of names of covert assets around the globe, and most importantly he hammered her on the fact that the issues she claims to be able to fix are the very threats she herself has fomented during her decades long tenure in public service.

Of course, it was well documented that the HRC campaign literally required the fawning CNN apparatchik to "fact check" DJT's comments, and essentially act as a third debater.  Lester Holt let it go until the last half hour of the televised debate, but then added commentary and framed his questions  so as to support HRC's positions.  Certainly Trump knew he would be doubled teamed and attacked from both sides, but he agreed to come on the Clinton News Network in the first place.   It didn't seem to faze him, however, and made the contrast between his demeanor and hers even more glaring.

So who won the debate?  I doubt if any HRC and DJT supporters' minds were changed.  But polls show that undecideds have come over into the light.  They see a dire need for effective policies of national security, stopping government spying and overreach, stemming unchecked immigration, and creating and sustaining real jobs.  Notwithstanding the constant drumbeat of propaganda emanating from the White House, real Americans know they are NOT better off than they were four, or even eight, years ago.  And they know those rosy reports of recovery and job growth are certainly not evident in their neighborhoods or communities.  They know they're being played. The Democrat party and its compliant media have pulled out all the stops to win this election and continue to fully move America into state controlled government.  The people, on the other hand, see through this power grab, and as Hirohito, the emperor of Japan, said of the US in 1941 after his navy bombed Pearl Harbor, "I'm afraid all we've done is to awaken a sleeping giant." That's the appeal of DJT and other leaders around the world who see the Orwellian dangers inherent in globalism.  They've awakened a sleeping giant.  People everywhere reject the the homogenized multiculturalism being shoved down their throats.  They want their communities, their tribes, their heritage and their nations to stay uniquely as they are.

So who won?  The American people won last night. And that doesn't bode well for the globalists.

Gray Band Matters

 Zuck's Jewish worship of the Islamist

Late last month I posted an article about why US control of the Internet matters, and a few days later another post about censorship and free markets.  These opinions sought to address the dangers of our dependency on the internet for everything from news to advocacy, and their susceptibility to outside control and censorship.  As we rely on something it becomes important to us.  And that makes it a target for our enemies to take it away from us.  If they can.  And if they can, they will.

So that's exactly what the Kenyan and his useful idiot sycophants in the tech industry have in mind for us.  In ten days, barring any disruption from congress, the Kenyan will implement yet another lawless and unconstitutional act deliberately intended to silence dissent of his fascist ambitions. He will cede ICANN's control and monitoring of the Internet to the anti-American members of the United Nations.  Facebook and Twitter and others have already been exposed as having a pro-Kenyan, anti-white/Christian/conservative bent, but no matter.  Those racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic voices deserve to be silenced anyway, don't they?  Be still, all you voices on the right!

Yet in an amazing juxtaposition, the very day that well known internet blogger and devotee Andrew Sullivan repents his addiction to the internet, recognizing it as the dehumanizing monkey on the back that it has become for many people, Google announces a yet another project that will increase censorship on the Internet.  Enter Jigsaw.  Even the now far-left tech magazine Wired is uncharacteristically cautious about this new troll tool.  That's how they're selling it, according the the Jew who runs the project, one Jared Cohen, whose involvement with other nefarious and unworkable schemes like Haystack is worthy of note.  Haystack attempted to provide undetectable cover for Iranian terrorists, but unintended consequences proved just the opposite.  When asked if Jigsaw - designed to interpret harassing comments, presumably to "warn" or "caution" the offending user - would surely include silencing positive speech as a false positive, Cohen responded in typical  totalitarian fashion that collateral damage is acceptable in identifying and silencing the opposition.  Well, ain't that special?

So we internet users are faced with more censorship from our own people, guaranteed hostility from enemy nations, all the while knowing that we need to purge ourselves of this dehumanizing high tech, digital information overload.  Whoa.  And I thought spousal relationships were vexatious!

But wait.

One 10m SSB mobile radio

History shows when a thing is suppressed, it just goes underground.  That said, if the powers that be be - I'm talking about globalists here -  want control of high tech, fine, the voice of freedom will go low tech.  Like verbal communication.  Like the written word - on paper.  Imagine having a face to face discussion with someone!  Or sending someone a letter.  Or for greater reach, consider that 10 meter band two way radios are readily available and aren't the focus of government or quasi government scrutiny.  For use of frequencies above 27.405 kilohertz you are required to have a federal FCC license; that's a ham radio license. But that bandwidth above CB channel 40 and below channel 1 is known as the gray band. Purchasing a radio is an investment, but it's less money than buying a computer with a subscription to an internet provider.  You'll need a good quality 10 meter "import" radio - they have channels above and below the CB range - and a good antenna and power supply.  Most of these will have CB channels in them out of the box, but some don't.  You can have base station or a mobile unit in your car or truck.  I'd recommend a single sideband radio as well.  They talk further and triple the channel selections.  Many folks are already on the air, and help and tips are readily available.  

You know by now that everything you do on the Internet is monitored.  Everything you type, and everything you search is recorded.  You're already categorized and labeled.  Liberal, moderate, conservative.  Friendly or threat.  But even a conversation on a legal or barely legal wavelength is traceable, to be sure, but is relatively unlikely.  For now.

So here's a new dog whistle if you despise this sell out, and want your voice back:  Gray Band Matters.

Another Muslim, Another Bombing

You just can't make this stuff up.  Seriously.  If I presented this story line to a publisher, it'd be rejected as being overly simplistic and pejorative, not to mention antagonistic.

A young man and his brother operate a terror cell out of a fried chicken place in New York, patterned after the hangouts that mob hoods use.  But these guys are Muslims.  They are well known to police as agitators, and attract a following of young Muslim men who are eager to do harm to the United States.  Cops have questioned them on occasion, without arrest or intimidation, but did require they cease business operation by 10:00 pm, due to neighbor noise complaints.  The brothers sue the city, the police department, various officials, and a neighbor living next to the chicken place and claim that despite other businesses being allowed to stay open at that time, they suffered economic hardship.  Case goes to trial, and upon hearing, is dismissed with prejudice.  That means the case had no merit, was vexatious, and cannot be brought up again. Ever.    So not to be dissuaded, the brothers and their happy group of terrorists set some bombs in Manhattan, in New Jersey and elsewhere, and set them off.   People are injured, some seriously, and there's extensive property damage.  The perp is found by the police, and during a shootout he shoots a cop in the lower torso, and afterward goes merrily down the street shooting randomly at anything.  At last the cops arrest and detain him.

Islam:  Clear and present danger

But it's not a story.  It really did happen just that way.  Muslims who are naturalized, and some who are illegal aliens, join together all over the country to do us harm.  See Minnesota.  But New York's mayor can't bring himself to call it terrorism.  Mzz Clinton or her avatar, barely awake and conscious at 10:00 pm, called it a bombing, but chastised Mr. Trump for using the word bomb.  Mzz Clinton, during her reign as senior salesman at State Department, allowed 31,000 Muslim savages into the country, and in her campaign, has advised us she expects to import 500,000 more.  The Muslim has told us his plan.  He's been very forthright about it, yet we don't believe. We import more.  And more.  Until there will more of them than of us.

And we the people, the American citizenry, are the ultimate victims of all this ideological largess.  In areas where the Kenyan has decreed Muslims shall be imported, such as the area in which I live, we see them all the time.  Some are in their head bags, walking in the middle of the street, openly defiant.  Others are obviously trying too hard to be perceived as Americans.  Opulence abounds.  Families with no visible means of support live in gated communities, drive very expensive cars - Mercedes, Maseratis, Cadillacs - and try way too hard for acceptance.  The Indians don't do that; they're friendly, but not overtly so.  The Asians don't do that either; they're friendly but reserved.

Suspicious is how the Muslims come across.  And do you know why?  It's because they know that you know exactly what they're ultimately up to.

They've told you so.  And they're not making it up.

Post Mortem

Hillary is dead.  Or is soon to be, according to an unverified source.   We can't be one hundred percent sure, but it does seem to be the case.  Or maybe she's just incapacitated, incoherent and bedridden.  Or maybe she's in a degenerative coma.  Or maybe she's healthy and eagerly awaiting her televised debates with Mr. Trump.  Even if this claim of Sepsis Encephalopathy is a fake, her leaked medical records (right) indicate she nonetheless suffers from Subcortical Vascular Dementia and is in a dire way.  One thing's for sure, however: she's dead politically.  Even her body double won't be able to evade the intense scrutiny that will undoubtedly arise from the debates.

The entrenched media is pulling out all the stops to try to debunk these revelations, yet countless videos of Hillary's behavior and demeanor seem to contradict their story that's she's fine and healthy.  Even of a more subtle nature, a recent Rasmussen poll asked democrat voters who they would prefer to replace Mz. Clinton.  It's doubtful that question would even be considered if Hillary was indeed  healthy and viable.  So the Dems scramble to find an electable candidate - Bernie?  Uncle Joe? Tim Kaine? - while poo-pooing the notion that the esteemed Mz. Clinton's candidacy is, shall we say, mortuus, et sepultus.

It's pretty clear the cat's out of the bag, so we'll see how things progress in the next few days and weeks.  It seems some folks' darkest fears concerning the outcome of this election may be coming to actualization, and all this is merely a precursor to something unprecedented happening in American national elections.

In that vein, I hope she's up and dancing on the tables.

The Purists' Fallacy

Many conservative purists are part of the Never Trump movement, and I wonder why.  A purist is a conservative who embraces economic freedom, personal liberty, smaller constitutional republic form of government and a laizze faire approach to business by government.  I am one of these.  But many purists cringe at Trump; they say Trump is not a conservative.  They say he's just in it for fame and glory.  A bit of envy, perhaps, as they may be in it for fame, glory and acquiring excessive wealth.  Trump already has excessive wealth.  And the purists know that the other party's candidate is a dinosaur entrenched in crony capitalism, globalist agenda, big government and total control of everything and everyone, whose election will absolutely ensure a continuance of the Kenyan's unparalleled destruction.  Everything a conservative despises.  Yet purists insist that she's a better choice for president than is Donald Trump.  Wow.  I disagree, yet I wonder why the purists hold this to be true.

Yes, I'm a conservative, and I wish we had a conservative in the race.  But I also realize this race isn't about ideology.  It's about survival.  It's about preserving who we are as a people and a culture.  The road back to the conservative nation we once were, with laizze faire economic freedom and personal liberty is long and arduous.  And right now, the good people of this great nation are in survival mode.  Right now they must fight the threat at the door which is a clear and present danger, and other threats will just have to wait their turn.  And right now we need to win this battle first, so we can fight on to win the war.  And winning the war will be the return to what the American experiment was all about.  So it's truly all about this battle.  Right now.

And therein lies the purists' fallacy.

Trump understands this.  And while he can be defined as something other than a conservative ideologue, what difference, at this point, does it make.  For eight long hard years, the Kenyan and his internal cabal of leftist globalists and yes, Muslims, have systemically destroyed the country.  Social media have taken up the cause.  Every day in every way Americans are bombarded with anti-American, anti-Christian propaganda.  Goebbels knew that a lie told often enough - and loud enough - will eventually  be perceived as truth.  And the liberal, progressive, globalist politically correct incessant chant has had a payoff, unfortunately.

And Trump is the only one in position at this time to take on the threat at the door.  He is a leader, and that is exactly what is needed now, not an another intellectual pondering the meaning of "conservatism."  He stands up - alone in many cases - against the politically correct ooze that threatens the nation and its way of life.  I get it, and so do scores of millions of other Americans of all creeds, colors and status, who see this threat as a fight to the death for our way of life - and for our children's future.  This nation has fought external enemies and prevailed.  How it fares against an internal one remains to be seen.

Rather than ridiculed and defamed as a fraud or huckster, Trump should be lauded for having the testicular fortitude to take on the threat directly and forcefully; the big government globalists, the sycophantic media, the leftist pundits and the dumbed-down millennials cowering in their snowflake enshrined safe places. 

So to all you purists out there I say, you best be gettin' with the program, bro.  We'll come back to Goldwater and Buckley and others after we win this one.  But right now we need you on our side so that the American experiment will not be lost forever.

And certainly not lost due to a political fallacy.

Third Term, Part Two

With one of the most colorful presidential elections in recent history well under way, and with polls indicating "None of the Above" may get as many votes as the Republican and Democrat party candidates, we may face a unique situation.  A lot of folks are tired of the whole process, and they tend to be same ones who usually tire of political races.  Some folks are on fire, as they rightly see this election as a last chance to preserve a constitutional republic type of government.   As I posted yesterday, HRC's health will be a pivotal factor in this race, and should she pass away post-election, but pre-inaugural, a major decision of how to proceed will be left to the Kenyan.  And that's not good for those of us on the constitutional republic side.  

But what if HRC is now incapacitated to the point of being in a non responsive coma, or perhaps even dead already?  The Democrat party may be already be planing a sequel to Weekend At Bernie's as they pretend she's still alive, propped up in a van perhaps, or replaced by a very convincing body double.  That fraud is a criminal act, of course, but this is the Clinton/Obama/Chicago crime machine we're dealing with after all.  So while all this chaos and uncertainty gives many folks pause, and given the state sponsored media is less than forthcoming when it comes to negative information about the democrats, or HRC in particular, one can certainly speculate freely.  And the wildest speculation may be spot on at the end of the day.

But even more troubling than having a holographic candidate is what the Kenyan's regime plans for the voting process.  Citing false flag situations, such as the presumed Russian hacking of US intelligence systems, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson has what he considers a solution: He wants to use his authority under a post-9/11 federal law designed to protect the country against terrorist attacks to designate the election system as “critical infrastructure.” With electronic voting, any manipulation of the result is easy; and not only possible, but probable.  A simpler solution is a return to paper ballots in this writer's view.  But we simply cannot have voters determining election outcomes, now can we?

While this redefining the entire election process to be under the watchful eye of DHS  is intellectually interesting, it's still a big, big liberty problem.  By elevating the election and vote counting process to a "critical infrastructure", the federal government - that means the Kenyan - can simply manage - that means manipulate  - the elections results.  How reassuring. 

So under this newly decreed government authority, if we elect Donald Trump, the Kenyan will cite fraud and irregularities in the vote count, and by virtue of the 2013 presidential directive nullify or suspend the election results.  

If on the other hand, we elect a ghost, or a mere holograph, the Kenyan will be tasked with making a decision as to who - if anyone - will succeed him as 45th President of the United States.  And remember he's stated repeatedly that he really doesn't want to be succeeded.

As an update to my post of yesterday, it certainly appears that the Democrats, and this president specifically, are kicking out all the stops to hold onto power, and to defeat the populist movement that so threatens the globalists' agenda. 

And absent armed revolution, they just may succeed.
