BARRY SOETORO'S SPEECH



I didn't watch it.

Did you?

No matter what Barry Soetoro might have said, it doesn't really matter.

The bottom line is, he is clearly violating the Constitution of the United States of America.

So, why aren't the United States Congress and the Supreme Court of the United States exercising their lawful constitutional powers and authority to stop Barry Soetoro?

Are they afraid?

Why doesn't the Pentagon pull a coup d' etat?

Surely, SOMEBODY can stop the tyranny of this despotic megalomaniac!

SINGING SOME FAVORITE SONGS

Here's a playlist of videos featuring ME(!!!) performing some of my favorite songs which were written by other folks.

Be sure and watch this in "FULL SCREEN" mode.



Some of the songs have lyrics included with the original post, which you can view at the YOU TUBE web site.

A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS - - -

*********************************
*********************************
This item was originally posted on the "OUR ETERNAL STRUGGLE" web site on Saturday 26 March 2011.
_______________________

Here is the complete unedited text of a breaking news item I just now saw at the DRUDGE REPORT web site:



Staffers with Vice President Joe Biden confined an Orlando Sentinel reporter in a closet this week to keep him from mingling with high-powered guests gathered for a Democratic fundraiser.

Reporter Scott Powers was the designated "pool reporter" for the vice president's Wednesday visit to the massive Winter Park, Fla., home of developer and philanthropist Alan Ginsburg. The veep hadn't arrived yet but most of the 150 guests (minimum $500 donation) had. They were busy noshing on caprese crostini with oven-dried mozzarella and basil, rosemary flatbread with grapes honey and gorgonzola cheese and bacon deviled eggs, before a lunch of grilled chicken Caesar and garden vegetable wraps.

Not so for Powers. A "low-level staffer" put Powers in a storage closet and then stood guard outside the door, Powers told the DRUDGE REPORT. "When I'd stick my head out, they'd say, 'Not yet. We'll let you know when you can come out.'"

And no crustini for Powers, either. He made do with a bottle of water to sip as he sat at a tiny makeshift desk, right next to a bag marked "consignment." Powers was closeted at about 11:30 a.m., held for about an hour and 15 minutes, came out for 35 minutes of remarks by Biden and Sen. Bill Nelson, Florida Democrat, and then returned to his jail for the remainder of the event.

Powers' phone didn't work in the closet, but his Blackberry did, so he fired a picture of his impromptu prison to his editors, who posted a short blog item on the lack of freedom of the press under the veep's control.

Powers didn't mention his confinement in either of his pool reports that day, saying only that "press coverage was limited to a single pool reporter, filing on behalf of all local media, who was allowed to listen to the remarks but not given an opportunity to talk with anyone at the event."

On Friday, Powers said, the home's owner called him. "He said he had no idea they'd put me in a closet and was very sorry. He said he was just following their lead and was extremely embarrassed by the whole thing."
______________________

Folks, that constitutes at least two (02) felonies, kidnapping and false imprisonment.

So, why aren't criminal charges AND a civil suit being filed by the victim, Scott Powers, and the management of the ORLANDO SENTINEL newspaper?

Are they afraid of the Vice President?

Are they afraid of the Vice President's staff?

Now, I have yet ANOTHER question:

Barry Soetoro's military attack on Libya is a BLATANT violation of the Constitution of the United States of America, and the majority of the American public is opposed to it.

So, why aren't the United States House of Representatives, the United States Senate, and the Supreme Court of the United States doing their job?

Why doesn't the Joint Chiefs of Staff INFORM their Commander-in-Chief that his obviously unjustifiable orders to invade and attack Libya would make war criminals of himself and, if they continue to carry out his unlawful orders, each of them?

If ever in the history of our nation, there was arguably proper cause for a military coup d' etat, now is that moment.

Similarly, a bloody, popular, armed uprising by the outraged populace would also be fitting and proper. 

How else shall our lost republic and our unalienable rights be restored?

How do you like this, Folks?

There are sailors and ships in the UNITED STATES ARMY!!!

A crew of twenty-five sailors in the United States Army, assigned to the Seventy-Third Transportation Company in the Tenth Transportation Battalion, of the Seventh Sustainment Brigade at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Virginia, depart Yorktown Coast Guard Station at Yorktown, Virginia at 10:30 Hours on Thursday 24 March 2011 on board the United States Army Large Tugboat MG WINFIELD SCOTT (LT-805) with two Landing Craft Utility vessels in tow.


The vessel is sailing to Morocco to participate in the JOINT LOGISTICS OVER THE SHORE (JLOTS) training exercise, an annual event combining the efforts of Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force personnel used to demonstrate our military forces' ability to transport critical equipment and supplies to shore from a cargo ship at sea without the benefit of port facilities.

MY NETFLIX IMPRESSIONS

********************************
********************************

For the past few months, I've been a subscriber to the NETFLIX movie web site.

I really like being able to watch all the movies I want to, commercial free, either at the web site, or on DVDs they send me via "snail" mail.

I only pay eleven dollars each month for this service.

I no longer subscribe to cable television, for why pay all that money when after surfing through literally hundreds of channels (including a load of channels you never wanted, but were forced on you anyway), you STILL can't find anything worth watching?

But, everything isn't perfect at NETFLIX.

Often, when watching a movie that's being streamed from their web site, the sound level will be too low, and I can't understand the dialogue.

That doesn't happen with their DVD movies, but it's a recurring problem at their web site.

Also, they impose "politically correct" censorship on viewer's movie reviews.

When writing a review, negative comments about homosexuals or Negroes are not permitted.

Many popular movies are not in the NETFLIX library, such as "SONG OF THE SOUTH", or the television series, "THE GRAY GHOST".

However, they do have the movie, "THE BIRTH OF A NATION", so go figure.

In my opinion, the movies made prior to Nineteen Sixty are FAR superior to movies made after Nineteen Sixty.

So, I really enjoy watching the classic films, which were made WITHOUT any sex, nudity, or profanity, and there was no apology for being White, Christian, and American.

The biggest problem with NETFLIX is that they currently have no competition, and so, they can do anything they want to.

However, that MAY soon change, as a brand new movie web site, ZEDIVA, is currently in the process of soliciting prospective customers.

Even so, I'm guessing they will also impose censorship of its members opinions and compel everyone to observe the constraints of "political correctness", for that is pretty much universal throughout the World Wide Web.

The bottom line is that if you enjoy watching movies as much as I do, you'll probably enjoy subscribing to NETFLIX, for the positives outweigh the negatives.

PATRIOTS' DAY LOOMING

Tuesday 19 April 2011 will be the two hundred and thirty-sixth anniversary of the "shot heard 'round the world", which began the American Revolutionary War for Independence (in which my own ancestors fought).


That's less than a month from now.

How shall we properly observe that day?

Surely, it should be a day of joyful celebration, collective gratitude, patriotic ritual, and religious services.

We should have barbecues, picnics, parades, fireworks, marching bands, firearms marksmanship competition, dances, plays, and movies.

My favorite patriotic movies that are especially appropriate for Patriots' Day are "APRIL MORNING", "JOHNNY TREMAIN", "1776", "THE PATRIOT", and "JOHN ADAMS".

In response to the contemporary oppression from the despotic tyranny being evinced by our present federal administration, Patriots' Day will be an appropriate time for initiating our popular armed rebellion by launching solitary, uncoordinated "lone wolf" attacks on vulnerable, isolated government facilities or government employees throughout the country.

The current tyrants who now rule in Washington, D.C. fear "lone wolf" attacks more than any other tactic, for they have no defense against an individual operative who has not communicated his intentions, and who does not belong to or participate in any organizations which might be the subject of intense surveillance.

Federal agencies which exist and operate in violation of our divinely inspired Constitution of the United States of America, and which consistently ignore the unalienable rights of the individual citizen, such as the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration, should become primary targets for patriotic rebels, as those two agencies presently pose the greatest imminent threat to freedom of movement and freedom of expression by the average American citizen.

The most effective way to psychologically impact these particular agencies is to attack an individual agent or employee when they are off duty and alone.

The ideal tactic will be to fire one shot from a concealed position, using a scoped .22 calibre bolt action rifle or scoped .22 calibre bolt action target pistol, aimed at the eyeball, and then leave the area by casually blending into the environment or crowd.

If enough of these nationwide "lone wolf" attacks are implemented, government operations can be neutralized to the extent that more formally organized resistance movements can begin recruiting and operating, especially now that the national economy is so close to total collapse.

Under these combined circumstances, it is entirely possible that control of the government can be gradually seized through force of arms, and hopefully, our lost republic and its Constitution of the United States of America can eventually be restored.

"Git 'er done, Johnny Reb!"

May God bless these United States of America.

*************************

SPECIAL NOTE TO FEDERAL EMPLOYEES:

As in earlier postings, I urge you to remember the tragic lessons of the Alfred P. Murrah Office Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

First of all, that event never would have happened if our government had obeyed its own laws and prosecuted the perpetrators of the Waco Massacre.

Secondly, under our own recognized rules of warfare currently implemented by our own government in foreign lands, federal facilities ARE regarded as legitimate military targets, and therefore, no child care facility should be on the premises.

MCJOBS FOR AMERICANS

Be sure to watch this video in "FULL SCREEN" mode.

This is a news broadcast from KSAZ-TV Channel 10, part of the Fox Television Network, in Phoenix, Arizona, which aired on Monday 07 March 2011.



As you can plainly see, the argument that illegal aliens only take the "jobs that Americans won't do" is nothing but false propaganda.

These days, a lot of American citizens are desperately seeking jobs, so for the survival of our national economy, the illegal aliens need to be arrested, prosecuted, incarcerated, and deported.

This video was posted on the YOU TUBE web site on Monday 07 March 2011 by "STAND WITH AZ".

I learned of this video from Brock Townsend at his FREE NORTH CAROLINA web site.

UNUSUALLY SLOW CSX FREIGHT

Be sure and watch this in "FULL SCREEN" mode.



This video was recorded from the balcony of my room here at the Armed Forces Retirement Home in Gulfport, Mississippi at a little past Noon on Saint Patrick's Day, Thursday 17 March 2011, using my Kodak Easy Share Z710 digital camera.

Two (02) CSX locomotives, moving unusually slow, and sounding their whistle more than usual, pull a mixed manifest freight train westbound on the old Louisville and Nashville Railroad tracks, as they approach the crossing at Anniston Avenue.

At the same time, the "Blue Angels" precision flying demonstration team of the United States Navy is rehearsing for their scheduled performance at nearby Keesler Air Force Base on Friday 18 March 2011.

On Saturday 19 March 2011, the "Blue Angels" will visit the residents of the Armed Forces Retirement Home.

JAPANESE DISASTER SLIDESHOW AND VIDEOS

Be sure to watch the slide show and video playlist in "FULL SCREEN" mode.





The photographs of the disaster in Japan were obtained from the web site of the DAILY MAIL newspaper in London, England, whose generosity in freely sharing them with the general public is greatly appreciated.

The videos in the playlist were posted on the YOU TUBE web site by various contributors.

When I was a small boy, we lived in Ashiya, on Japan's southernmost island of Kyushu, where my father was an Army sergeant stationed on Ashiya Air Force Base, and I completed the second grade at the base school.

As a soldier in the United States Army, I enjoyed a week of R&R leave away from the war in Viet Nam visiting Japan, where I saw the sights at EXPO 70, as I toured Osaka, Kamakura, Enoshima, Tokyo, and Yokohama.

Also, when flying to and from the United States of America and Viet Nam or Korea, our chartered military flights would always stop at Yokota Air Force Base, Japan to refuel.

FLIGHT FROM ASHIYA and SAYONARA are two of my favorite movies.

A RARE HISTORIC TREASURE

FANTASTIC LIGHT SHOW ! ! !

Be sure to watch this in "FULL SCREEN" mode.



I learned of this video from Brock Townsend at his FREE NORTH CAROLINA web site.

At this time, the only information given, is that the event took place somewhere in Portugal, and as far as I can tell, even that can't be verified.

It was posted on the YOU TUBE web site by "RENATINHUO", who provided no details, on Monday 18 October 2010.

If this event was in Portugal, I don't know what city it was in, when this took place, nor what the occasion was.

But, it's sure a great show, ain't it?

WOW!!!

Greetings and Salutations to All my Kith and Kin and All the Ships in Outer Space:

For the best effect, please be sure to enjoy watching, in "FULL SCREEN" mode, my homemade amateur video recording of ME (!), performing my own version of Annette Joanne Funicello's biggest hit song, "OH, DIO MIO", as I accompany myself by strumming simple chords on my Yamaha G-130A classical guitar.



Oh, Dio mio,
I love her so.
Oh, Dio mio,
How will she know
How much I need her,
How much I want her,
How much I long
For her love?

Oh, Dio mio,
Please hear my prayer.
Oh Dio mio,
If only she'd care.
If she would love me,
We'd be in
Heaven above.
Heaven above.

Each time I hear
The church bells chime.
I dream of her
And she is mine.

Oh, Dio mio,
I love her so.
Oh, Dio mio,
Please let her know
How much I need her,
How much I long
For her love.
Make her my love.

JAPAN EARTHQUAKE AND THE PENTAGON



This is the official statement by Secretary of Defense Dr. Robert M. Gates regarding the earthquake and tsunami in Japan:

"I've been kept informed all day long about the tsunami in Japan, the earthquake and tsunami. As best we can tell, all of our people are okay, our ships and military facilities are all in pretty good shape. We obviously have huge sympathy for the people of Japan and we are prepared to help them in any way we possibly can. It's obviously a very sophisticated country, but this is a huge disaster and we will do all, anything we are asked to do to help out."

His remarks were made to reporters at approximately 12:30 Hours Eastern Standard Time on Friday 11 March 2011 outside the airport terminal in Manama, Bahrain.

JAPAN EARTHQUAKE AND MORMON MISSIONARIES

*******************************
*******************************
OFFICIAL NEWS RELEASE FROM THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS:

Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Japan following the recent devastating earthquake and tsunami.
There has been a high volume of inquiries concerning the safety of missionaries serving in the area. The most immediate information is that five of the six missions in Japan have reported all missionaries are accounted for and safe. However, all communications systems in the Sendai area are down. We have not been able to contact each missionary in that mission yet. We continue to work diligently to account for the missionaries in this area and will update information as we are able to do so.

Initial reports from missions in areas affected by tsunami activity show all missionaries are safe.

We are also assessing how the Church might help meet the needs of people affected by the earthquake and tsunami.

GOGI GRANT: "SUDDENLY, THERE'S A VALLEY"

*******************************
*******************************

Be sure to watch this video in "FULL SCREEN" mode, which was posted on the YOU TUBE web site on Monday 17 December 2007 by Larry Sandlin.
 

GOGI GRANT is one of my favorite singers, and "SUDDENLY, THERE'S A VALLEY" is my favorite song recorded by her, which became a hit in 1955.

In fact, this is a song I think I want to try and learn.

It evokes pleasant memories of my years residing in, and roaming about, the "HIGH LONESOME" mountain wilderness of Idaho and Utah.

Maybe, sometime in the future, there'll be a recording of ME(!) prominently posted on my own personal channel at the YOU TUBE web site (and on THIS web site, naturally), strumming my guitar and singing this song.

"SUDDENLY, THERE'S A VALLEY"

Composed By:
CHUCK MEYER and BIFF JONES

When you've climbed
The highest mountain,
When a cloud
Holds the sunshine in,
Suddenly, there's a valley
Where the earth
Knows peace with man.

When a storm
Hides the distant rainbow
And you think
You can't find a friend,
Suddenly, there's a valley
Where friendships
Never end.

Touched only
By the seasons,
Swept clean
By the waving grain,
Surveyed by
A happy bluebird,
And kissed
By the falling rain.

When you think
There's no bright tomorrow,
And you feel
You can't try again,
Suddenly, there's a valley
Where hope
And love begin.

Here's a video of me singing Gogi Grant's most famous hit, "THE WAYWARD WIND":

"HIGH LONESOME"

Words and Music by:
JOHN ROBERT MALLERNEE

Tuesday 20 January 1998
Saint Anthony, Idaho

VERSE # 1:
Up into the high
Lonesome country
Of the great
American West;
That's where
This city cowboy
Can set his
Mind at rest.
Down here
In civilization,
Everything I do
Is wrong.
My heart is
Always broken.
Can't you hear it
In my song?
Alone and lost
In these mountains,
I will sing
With the wind.
I can be happy.
I can have freedom
And live again.
Music
Of these mountains
Soothes my pain
For a while.
I am one with
God and nature,
And we smile!

VERSE # 2:
Up into the high
Lonesome country
Where
Tumbleweeds roll,
The wind is
Always moving,
As it whispers
To your soul:
"Cowboy, keep on riding
Across this sacred land.
Legends live forever
You can understand!"
Ride to
The high lonesome.
You will find
You have a friend.
There is music
All around you
On the wind.
From the dust of
By-gone ages,
Ancient voices cry aloud,
"Cowboy, ride
The high and lonesome,
And be proud!"

VERSE # 03:
Up into the high
Lonesome country,
Where still,
The outlaws roam;
Drums of
Ancient warriors
Pound from
Their tribal home.
This land is
Just as savage
As it was
So long ago.
In this high
Lonesome country,
There's still
Some buffalo.
Like the ones who
Went before you,
Go and seek
Wilderness.
You must break free
And find yourself
Some happiness.
Challenge
The high lonesome
In the modern
Wild West
Where the music
Of these mountains
Is still the best!


JOHN ROBERT "SAIGON" MALLERNEE, performing many years ago at a gathering of the COWBOY POETS OF IDAHO at the ROXY Theatre in Saint Anthony, Idaho

(Hmmm - - - just what year WAS this, anyway?)
