In God Government We Trust…

First I must make a few things perfectly clear. I love America. I have traveled to over 25 countries and I have resided in five as part of my employment with the Government.

Second, I am a veteran. I took an oath to defend this Country from all enemies, foreign and domestic. I also took an oath to protect and serve.

I never took any oath that said My Government, right or wrong. I never took an oath that required me to follow blindly. Why has been and always be a part of my vocabulary!

Thirdly, I am not affiliated with any party. I used to be a Democrat and served that party in a State office. I broke with the Democrats a long time ago. The nature of my work prevented me from being politically active and I ignored politics except when it came time for me to vote. I believe in the Constitution and small government and a Higher Power.

That being said, I make the following declaration:

I do NOT trust our Government. I didn’t trust it under LBJ, Nixon, Ford,  Carter, Reagan, Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43, and I sure don’t trust it under Barack Hussein Obama.

Reagan and Bush 41 were probably the most trustworthy but I was and am always leery.  Bush 43 I respected his views and his loyalty but I distrusted a lot of his advisors. I rarely agree with every thing that our Government does. I distrust all politicians, most lawyers, doctors, and preachers. People have to earn my trust.

It saddens me to see the people of America becoming lemmings. My parents and grandparents instilled within me a sense of self-reliance and independence. They also instilled a strong sense of patriotism and service.

I am disturbed by my visions of trusting, smiling Americans lining up with US Flag patches (instead of the Star of David) sewn to their shirts, marching headlong into concrete brick buildings with “green” chimneys and not coming out. Multitudes who have turned total control of their lives over to the Government… because they trust blindly and are enthralled with a cult of personality.

This comment section is for the readers of Ft. Hard Knox, a place for political conservatives to share information about online activism. We are not "fair and balanced," and we aren't refereeing a "free speech zone." Intelligent, funny, and on-topic comments are welcome. Trolls, spam, and liberal propaganda are not. We may occassionally approve a comment with an obvious lefty-slant so that we can amuse ourselves by making fun of it, but most will be deleted. (Why? Because we're busy, we have lives, and when we want to talk to you we'll go visit you on Digg or the Daily KOS.)

This is a private blog, and we reserve the right to make up our own rules as we go along. The few comments which manage to squeak by our censors reflect the opinion of the commentator, and not necessarily the staff of Ft. Hard Knox.

Hint: One sure-fire way to get your comment sent directly to the "spam" folder is to call us "racists" for disagreeing with a policy of the current POTUS or speaking out against terrorism.
