THE FOURTH TURNING IS RIGHT ON SCHEDULE!

Visit the Fourth Turning Forum at www.fourthturning.com/discussions.html for information on the Fourth Turning.

Prudence says be very afraid; societal and possibly even world-changing events are about to occur. Even with the abundance of the Czars whose history and beliefs are contrary in almost all cases to the interests of freedom and independence, the events of the Fourth Turning will be facilitated by but not caused by Obama and his associates. Even in combination with a Democrat-controlled Congress, the Obama realm will be only a contributor. In fact, regardless of who is President, the Fourth Turning (see The Fourth Turning by William Strauss and Neil Howe) will come. What is occurring with the election of the President, the financial crisis, and other challenges to humanity are only natural elements of the unavoidable. We can be assured that the Turning will come and that it won't be pretty. We cannot, however, predict its nature other than to say it will also be historic. I look forward to the developing Obamanation. It will be great to continually get money without having to work for it, although, since I and my family have always worked and saved, we will probably be among the few that will be denied the bountiful benefits from the Government redistribution of wealth. In fact, we will be paying for it. Ah! The equity of a democracy controlled by Socialists.

Musings:

Regarding the coming crisis of the Fourth Turning. The effectiveness of the Tea Party Movement is becoming more and more obvious. The mid-term election provided an opportunity to restore the Republican Party to its Conservative base in the Congress. Hopefully, that will happen and the recent success of the Progressives will be reversed or at least minimized. Of course, that is something the powerful in the Progressive Movement cannot allow to happen. Therefore, they must take actions to prevent the possibility from happening. What form can such actions take? Were I powerful enough among the controllers in the Progressive Movement, I would create "events" within the Tea Party Movement or in the world that could be declared a National crisis. I would move legislation through Congress before ceding power to the next Congress to entrench already enacted law and enact the remainder of the Socialization agenda. I would not trust the US military not to fracture when called upon to control the US public, which would be what I want so the Progressive President could request United Nations military support to control the public reaction to the crisis and the government's reaction to it. Those actions are well underway, including the tax law legislation that turns out to be more in favor of the Progressives, the DREAM Act that is a win for the Conservatives at this point (12/18/2010), and DADT repeal, which passed and is a win for the Progressives.

Congratulations on resisting DADT repeal. You are spot on regarding what will, or at least should be the result within the Corps. Under the current policy, which I believe is still too lenient, at least service members don’t have to continually fend off sexual advances from their homosexual “brethren.” Under a policy that allows/encourages “gays” to openly exhibit the characteristic that makes them different, there will be widespread discomfort from the “straight” community. That will be exacerbated by the gays pursuing their in-your-face belligerence, by gays ogling straights, particularly in shared shower situations, and by gays in power positions attempting to coerce subordinates to submit to their sexual advances. While those actions may not be universal, it will only take a few to create widespread dissension in the ranks. In non-combat situations that may only result in fights between people that should be viewing each other as brothers, the fabric that makes the Corps what it is. However, in a combat situation imagine a scenario where Gaylan “loves” Gaylord who in turn has a crush on Joe Straight. How easy will it be for a stray bullet to accidentally kill Joe? Or perhaps the stray bullet will take out Gaylord in an effort to protect Joe. Regardless, the confusion of the battlefield will provide great opportunity for scenarios that devastate the cohesiveness necessary for unit effectiveness. The characters and their propensities will be well known among the unit members and it will only take one such incident to polarize the entire unit. When the word spreads, and it will spread rapidly, every unit in the Corps will polarize. Even a rumor of such an incident will have devastating effects on the entire Corps. Even if DADT is not repealed, as the homosexual community gains in boldness and chooses to exercise their perceived rights, there will be an increasing problem that will rapidly destroy the togetherness necessary for units to serve effectively in combat. I encourage you to continue to support at least retaining the restrictions of DADT. In fact, I suggest you move toward avoiding the coming effect of increasing boldness that is encouraged by the apparent strong support from some uninformed officials in the DoD and opt for a BIG (Ban If Gay) policy. Unless we do something to minimize the impact of open homosexuality in our military force, it will not be long before the force is an all-homosexual one or we are forced to institute a draft.

Regarding Iran's quest for nuclear weapons. While I believe that one aspect of Iran's quest for nuclear weapons is to use them, either directly or through surrogates, on the Infidel Nations, the most serious near-term threat is use of the weapons on population centers in the Middle East. By destroying such centers and creating havoc in the region, Iran and its supporters would have free rein to occupy and control the oil production of the bulk of the Middle East. hey would not have to worry about the "civilized" world sending troops into the nuclear radiation zones because we will not expose our people to recognized hazard. That is a concern the Iranians will not have. They will not hesitate to send their people into hazardous areas, thus giving them virtually complete control over a significant part of the world's oil supply. They will not hesitate to use their control to reward and punish. The scenario will be devastating to us and other nations that do not line up with Iran.

The Messiah President's signing of the mammoth stimulus bill with its intended and unintended consequences are an important element of setting the stage for the Turning. Apparently though there are those that recognize the potential for the new law; the stock market is being manipulated for gain by astute traders, but for those of us considered to be the common people, the market's rise and fall will only take advantage of us. Folks, we haven't seen anything yet. Many people with insider contacts will get very rich, or at least much richer, at our expense.

The goal of this site is to identify the extent that the United States has deviated from the course set by our Founding Fathers in the founding documents and to mobilize eligible voters who feel disenfranchised by the political process to retake our Government, correct the mistakes and excesses that have caused the disenfranchisement, and put the Nation back on the proper course. Please join like-minded patriots in forming a new political party that is not a single issue party and which will do what the Democrats and Republicans refuse to do - protect our freedom by restoring our social morality and reinforcing our status as a sovereign nation. Our Party, as should all political parties, welcomes people regardless of sex, race, or religion providing only that they agree with the party concepts. Can a Party be more inclusive than that?

The November 2008 election should have provided a wake-up call to social conservatives that many are unhappy with the current state of the Union, believing we are heading in the wrong direction. Many vote against the worst candidate because there are no good choices. Many believe that their vote won't matter. Many are not confident that, regardless of whether Democrats or Republicans are in power, nothing will be done to get us back on the right path. The fact that numerous "Democrat" candidates seem to be as much like their Republican opponents, and vice versa,  supports the fact that there is little difference between the two major parties. We can expect much the same old erosion of rights regardless of which party controls. The overall goal, regardless of who is allowed to serve in Congress or be President, is Globalization. In their minds, the standard of living must be leveled among the World's countries. Of course, to achieve that some standards will rise while some, notably ours, will fall. We will achieve what may be called the worst common denominator. The sad fact is that our votes really do not count. There is too much control by a relatively small number of very rich people who are bent on becoming rulers of the entire world. They are patient and will not allow anything, in particular the annoying United States Constitution, stand in their way.

We saw a great example of misguided bi-partisanship related to the attempt by the last Congress to ease the "path to citizenship" for the approximately 20 million Mexicans and other than Mexicans currently in the country illegally. Of course, bi-partisanship means cooperation between and among those elected to Congress and often results in actions by them against We the People. Legalizing illegal aliens will be very bad for middle class America, but good for professional politicians and their controllers. It will also be good for the Mother countries of the newly legalized aliens because most will maintain dual citizenship, which will allow their home countries to maximize the benefit obtained from the aliens among us. We can expect more of the same from the current Congress and the result will contribute to the hastening of the Fourth Turning.

The rushing of the stimulus bill through Congress without even allowing time for a reasonable person to read the legislation, and the failure to get more than the votes of the three Democrat infiltrators into the Republican Party, establish the manner by which our Democrat Government will hasten the turning. Such action is an essential part of the movement into the Turning. The Turning will come on its own schedule; the humans of the time can only have a slight effect on the schedule.

The Progressive Movement of the past 60 to 80 years has seen our government and society move rapidly away from our founding principles; the rule of law, the guarantee of individual and property rights, and a common national identity. These principles are gradually, and at an increasing rate, being replaced by government-mandated group rights, redistribution of wealth, and multiculturalism. In short, we are rapidly moving toward a form of government that has been tried and found woefully deficient elsewhere in the world - Socialism. Unless we stop the movement, we will see our national identity and the vestiges of our greatness rapidly disappear. We will increasingly become prey to aggression both from within and without, placing our Nation in both social and physical jeopardy.

We have already seen serious evidence of what lies ahead. The September 11, 2001 assault on the United States by Islamic radicals and our response to it very likely represent, at least in large part, the continuing failure of both our foreign and social policies. Please read our foreign policy statement and the various statements related to the social health of our Nation. They focus on the cause of the attack and pose solutions. Although there are many who have realized that we have a systemic national problem, as with all problems, government officials have so far concentrated on the symptoms rather than the sickness. They have beaten their chests and promised revenge on the perpetrators, but have labeled talk of policy flaws as inappropriate and of the nature of appeasing the "enemy." They have refused to acknowledge that our society is rapidly falling apart. That is because identifying the real cause of any of today’s problems is neither politically correct nor consistent with the goals of the elite power structure. We can expect a different approach as the Obamanation takes control, but the net effect will be to continue to focus on the symptoms rather than the cause and that will be augmented by witch-hunts among the Republican hierarchy. It is the inability or unwillingness of our elected officials to act that makes retaking our government essential. Only by wholesale replacement of our current gang of lawmakers with rational people who will take the necessary, but perhaps politically incorrect, actions can we reclaim our place in a safe world. Simply taking a different direction to the same old end, while it is the much anticipated "change," produces the same old result.

Congress has passed the most expansive curtailment of Constitutional rights that we have seen in our Republic's history. This was done in the guise of protecting us from further terrorist attacks. However, we must carefully watch what is being implemented to ensure that it is not merely one plank of a platform that will ultimately provide total Government control over the citizenry. As we have seen, this legislation and our President's exercise of his "Constitutional" prerogatives allow virtually unfettered surveillance of any person living in the United States, including secret searches of property and communications, without a prior warrant. Next must come confiscation of guns and institution of a means of continually tracking the whereabouts of all residents, i.e., a national ID card. The unfortunate incidents of terrorism appear to be being used as a means to achieve motives other than protection of our citizens and national interests. The curtailment of rights must be reversed while implementing intelligent processes focused on the real enemy. One such process is the monitoring of calls coming to the country from outside sources known or suspected to be terrorist-related

"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." Justice Louis Brandeis, dissenting, Olmstead v US (1928)

Almost daily, we see our elected officials continue to mess with the futures of middle class America. We continue to have our earnings confiscated and our freedoms curtailed to benefit one "victim" group after another. Meanwhile, we are constantly educated to the new order of things by propaganda fed to us by a liberal media. Commercials, slanted in-depth "news" reports, and entertainment have subtle and not so subtle guidance defining "normal" behavior. We are rapidly being acclimated to extreme violence, open homosexuality, promiscuity, lying, interracial relationships, and the value of diversity. There is a broad attack on the religious foundation of our society as well. All of this is necessary to destroy the moral structure of our society and to make us essentially dependent on the government if America is to become the Socialist Nation that is envisioned. The mess needs to be cleaned up, but neither major party has the will to do it. In fact our officials are anxious to see the results implemented as soon as possible for to do so will achieve the goals of their handlers. Our elected officials, with almost singular exceptions, have prostituted themselves to controllers who do not have the best interests of "We the People" in mind when they direct their minions to act. With Obama The Savior now in power, expect to see an acceleration of the effort. If, God forbid, the current effort to remove term limits on the President, Obama could be President for life.

See the book "America's 30 Years War, Who is Winning" by Balint Vazsonyi to understand how far we have strayed from the course mapped out in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.

President Bush made significant deviations from his campaign promises. He waged unnecessary war, sacrificing the lives of our youth on symptoms of the decay of our society. He adopted a "compromise" position on stem cell research funding that uses body parts from early stages of human lives that were purposely terminated, i.e., from euthanized humans. He took the position before the Supreme Court that the government should be allowed to award some contracts based on consideration of disadvantaged group status. He allowed open homosexual activists to be appointed/hired to key positions in his administration, including to the staff of the Secretary of Defense. He signed into law the seriously flawed education bill has forced our schools to actively promote the homosexual agenda and substantially lower the level of education provided to our children. He attempted to legalize hordes of illegal immigrants and worked to allow the continued migration of Mexicans into the United States as part of a normal natural occurrence. Is this what you expected? Regardless, you did stand by and allow it to happen.

Are you willing to do anything about what is about to happen?

You do have a choice: insist that we get back on the course set by the Founders; or wind up in a nation that practices one form or another of Socialism/Communism, alien forms of government that have failed miserably wherever they have been implemented.

We believe that there are many people, both aligned with the current political parties and who have no party preference, that believe the Government has ceased to represent their beliefs and interests. At this site, we identify some of the problem areas and propose solutions that may be more attuned to the majority opinion that seems to have been ignored and which has put our society and Nation in jeopardy. Control of government has been almost completely ceded to the elite power structure. Many know this to be true but believe that there is no way to recapture power for the people. We, however, believe that we must recapture that power and that we have to choose between passively sitting back and griping, or joining the battle to recapture it for "We the People." If you are one who feels disenfranchised, please help. Check the links in the table to the left and, if you agree that the solutions proposed are valid, join us in organizing an effort to take back our government. If you will be happy in a nation where everything is determined by the government, where "social justice" has been achieved, and where personal freedom has ceased to exist, look elsewhere. We have to be ready for wholesale change in less than two years. In the 2010 elections, we can elect one-third of the Senate and all of the House of Representatives. If we fail in 2010, there is not much hope that we can avoid the unimaginable.
