Your AMERICA….MY America….our America……Where my friends…….?????

Yes we are still America.
Yes we are still a Great country…..so that you will not think me Anti-American……or UN-Patriotic….Gawd forbid….

But we failing on many fronts….and Left or Right wing….Conservative or Liberal…We all know it….how can we not ?

Will we simply continue to justify our country’s actions on the name of our country…..because that name….that

America….hey that’s us…..that’s the people of our country….that is America…..you and me my friends.

You know we all say it’s the politicians of our country….but hey guess what we all stand by and just let them…I mean WTF they don’t elect themselves ya know…
We Elect em..
.over,and over ,and over again….
It is mind numbing that we continually continue to fall for their crap every election…I swear….

Me I am dam sick of being just a name…….I am American….and as such I must let my freedom loose….or I shall surely

lose it just as I believe we all will if we continue to not speak up based on party lines….
There is plenty wrong with our America my friends……not just on one side…not just Liberal or Conservative America…..
Sometimes…naw who am I kidding most times… I feel as if our leaders…..on all sides have completely lost their fucking minds…..all common sense seems to regularly elude them….
that is of course if they are really looking for the sensible thing to do in the first place….
Which again we all know the answer to that question….lololol
but trust me not laughing in the slightest….!!

Am I to assume…am I saying …they just do not seem to give a flying phuck….or fuck…or ohhhh no don’t swear….
You don’t have to swear Lemur…..

??????
Oh yea….Yes I do….I really,really,really have too.

Politic,politics,politics as usual….what the fuck is really going on…..and no I am not going Tea Party on any of you…

Lemur is going Rogue …?
Nope don’t even associate me with that whole sequence of events….

I am just sick and tired of trying to play the game that I seem to be continually blaming those across the aisle from me of

doing….what I am always saying that they do.

Can I pledge Resistance to war….all wars without being called a Liberal……or can I say that President Obama Warrant-less

Surveillance of many Americans is not my idea of what America should be…..?

Can I…..?

Well can be damned…….I’m saying it right now my friends…..

And for me my friends….mostly for me…..selfish….I don’t think so one bit….but hey I am not seeking your

approval….nor your forgiveness…..I am just looking for that little piece of me that seems to be vanishing every time I

shut my mouth …. or look into the mirror….I’m sure many of you know exactly what I am saying…then again I am not really sure of anything these days

and thus this blog was born….

The following very short video is for your consideration my friends.

Pledge of Resistance

We believe that as people living
in the United States it is our
responsibility to resist the injustices
done by our government,
in our names

Not in our name
will you wage endless war
there can be no more deaths
no more transfusions
of blood for oil

Not in our name
will you invade countries
bomb civilians, kill more children
letting history take its course
over the graves of the nameless

Not in our name
will you erode the very freedoms
you have claimed to fight for

Not by our hands
will we supply weapons and funding
for the annihilation of families
on foreign soil

Not by our mouths
will we let fear silence us

Not by our hearts
will we allow whole peoples
or countries to be deemed evil

Not by our will
and Not in our name

We pledge resistance

We pledge alliance with those
who have come under attack
for voicing opposition to the war
or for their religion or ethnicity

We pledge to make common cause
with the people of the world
to bring about justice,
freedom and peace

Another world is possible
and we pledge to make it real.

Hey OBAMA !!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF………………..

Since when did we also become the enemy huh……?

Just-Released Documents Show ‘Huge Increase’ in Warrantless Surveillance

The Obama administration has fought tooth and nail to keep the details of its surveillance activities hidden from the public.

For years it has insisted that its snooping on Americans’ phone and email communications fell perfectly within the law (that

is, the extremely broad and invasive FISA Amendments Act, which authorizes warrantless surveillance of Americans’

international communications, checked only by a secretive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that doesn’t make it’s

activities and procedures available to the public.) Despite repeated demands by civil liberties groups, the administration

refused to disclose how many times they gathered intelligence about American citizens.

But now, the ACLU, “after months of litigation,” has been provided with some details. And it doesn’t look good:

ACLU:

Justice Department documents released today by the ACLU reveal that federal law enforcement agencies are increasingly

monitoring Americans’ electronic communications, and doing so without warrants, sufficient oversight, or meaningful

accountability.

The documents, handed over by the government only after months of litigation, are the attorney general’s 2010 and 2011

reports on the use of “pen register” and “trap and trace” surveillance powers. The reports show a dramatic increase in the

use of these surveillance tools, which are used to gather information about telephone, email, and other Internet

communications. The revelations underscore the importance of regulating and overseeing the government’s surveillance power.

(Our originalFreedom of Information Act request and our legal complaint are online.)

Pen register and trap and trace devices are powerfully invasive surveillance tools that were, twenty years ago, physical

devices that attached to telephone lines in order to covertly record the incoming and outgoing numbers dialed. Today, no

special equipment is required to record this information, as interception capabilities are built into phone companies’ call-

routing hardware.

This news will be completely ignored by the network news outlets, so voters will by and large know nothing about it. It will

not inform people’s voting decisions. But even if it did, the question again arises, as it was so elegantly put by The

Atlantic‘s Conor Friedersdorf earlier this week, how much “evil” are lesser evil Obama voters willing to accept?

I am sure many of you heard of this story this past week…and some did not…and I gotta tell ya Conor Friedersdorf hit the

nail right on the head in my view my friends….

“how much “evil” are lesser evil Obama voters willing to accept?”…………?

Sure I do it myself…wtf …we all do……

The lesser evil….well ya maybe so…cause I sure as hell will not be voting for Mitt Romney thats for sure….

But I’ll be damned if I am not going to look nor question,nor remain quiet to appease any of you willing to question my

responsibilities I have to my own ethical or moral code……

Not going to happen my friends……

You are fully welcomed to say and do as you please with this concern….go for it……because I sure am….

I guess I just had to speak up on this…and so there you have it…..

Get some of your own Due Process now while you still can my friends…well not Real Due Process you know legality wise….you know according to the Government…….but get yourself some
You Process…..you know while you still can…….

Your America……My America.

Who the “f”are we kidding…..?
Not as long as we shut up it ain’t   !!!!!

Thank you
