I feel emboldened by the * cabal.

I am not sure whether I find a new strength in how many scandals there have been recently. Maybe knowing we could all be locked up makes me feel like I have nothing to lose. If they are going to come for me, I might as well make their case for them and cause as much trouble as I can in the process.

Whatever the reason, the last few days I have truly felt powerful. I feel like I can take on the world. Perhaps I am doing it in a cowardly way because I have been trapping people who can not really disagree with me.

The first time this happened I was aghast that my son was instructed to thank the pResident in a letter. I emailed the teacher stating this did not fall in line with our politics and I gave her link after link proving what the cabal had done. I told her our son does not wish to thank the pResident but if she insisted on it he could tell the president thank you for listening as this is always good manners. To this day I am not positive whether she blindly follows what she has been told all her life or she is a rabid freeper. She could not fight back, not in her job, and so she wrote a wonderfully friendly email back stating all is well and there is no need for my son to say thank you.

Today I went to a women's show where there are tons of stands from businesses in the area. They sell products, have give aways and offer samples. We went in the Costco booth and I said, to my friend, that they are blue. The woman behind us asked what that meant. She had on an exhibitor badge which I did not look at closely. I said, loud enough for everyone to hear, that Walmart and Sam's Club are red and Costco is blue. I went on to explain what that means and that I vote and support people with my money. Her face went sour when I explained what the colors meant and what I do to make sure I support anyone who is blue. I especially went on and on when I finally took a look at her badge only to find out she works for Costco!!!

At another booth the exhibitor was saying how you could find their product at Walmart. I immediately started backing up saying I do not go to Walmart. I explained, for everyone to hear, why I do not go to Walmart. The person was very nice and said it would soon be in other stores as well.

Then I ran across a department store booth. They were taking applications for their credit card. I said we do not believe in credit cards and when she said you have to have cards to build your credit I explained how I already had built my credit. There were three ladies behind the counter and I proceeded to tell them how the "rethuglicans" passed a credit bill last year and how even if you lose your house and you are out on the street, your bills will still be there and you are expected to pay them off. One of them mentioned something about that being the way it should be. I countered saying that I dare anyone in America to go against what I am saying. (I was fuming at this person supporting a bill like this) I should have spewed statistics about how many bankruptcies are due to accidents, etc...and are not the person's fault at all. I had had it and wanted to vent about the Republican party. I said no one could disagree that if you are putting through a bill, about bankruptcy and you let the credit card companies write it then you must be one of the most corrupt US governments ever. I said imagine any government just going to the companies and saying, "You write it and I will pass it. Whatever suits you is fine." I said I had had it with governments like that. The girl who had spoken earlier just hung her head in silence. I am not sure if she was biting her tongue or she knew that these folks have a 'for sale' sign out on the White House lawn.

I know that in the above cases people were at their job and could not say anything but it felt so good. It also felt good to be informing anyone else who was around and might be listening.

At this point this is what we all need to be doing. What do we have to lose? We might gain some converts if we speak the truth loud enough and often enough. I say if they are going to come and take me away then I will need as many people as I can converted and fighting on my behalf. I am tired of the silent media not spreading the news. I am tired of my nation being uneducated. I am tired of all the excuses and lies they make to cover their tracks.

We may have just become the most dangerous people on earth. I will not go quietly into that good night. I will go out kicking and screaming trying to wake up the masses. Who is with me?
