Yep you read the headline right it is time to take back our nation through a real honest to God revlolution.  Hold on there though folks, put “old Betsy” back into the rifle rack and put down the torches and pitch forks, this will be a different kind of revolution, one that starts at home, not in Washington or even the local court house.

Tune in today to hear…

  • The great lie told to us as individuals
  • Why the powers that be are afraid of one persons simple actions
  • The five calls a month you should make as your patriotic duty
  • A call to end the labels of liberal vs. conservative
  • How the meaning of liberal and conservative has been perverted anyway
  • A new way to “debate issues”
  • Why you need relationships with people with vastly opposing views
  • A new look at the second amendment and an argument no anti can win about it
  • Why Joe Biden is wrong that paying more tax is patriotic and what your real patriotic duty is
  • Why you must plan to own land if you don’t already
  • The number one tool used today to destroy families and enslave our people (it is in plain site and highly prized)
  • A view seen as “left wing liberal hippy” that is actually constitutional and quite conservative
  • Why you must be informed about what might happen but act upon what will happen
  • The real source of your power and why we can successfully revolt today, not tomorrow, not some day

Episode-104- A look around the nation and the world [ 38:23 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Since we haven’t really looked around at current events much lately I figured we should pull back a bit and assess some of the current threats and indicators.

Tune in today to hear…

  • The US will be out of Iraq by 2011, Bush did it but Obama gets the credit
  • The probability of escalation of the war in Afghanistan
  • New agreements between Venezuela and Russia
  • 20,000 Combat troops training for domestic deployments
  • Israel threatens to bomb Iran, bad fricken voodoo if that happens
  • Citi Bank uses our money to buy a toll road company that can’t even make money with that scam
  • Credit card companies are cutting credit lines of good paying customer, very bad indicator
  • Alderman Charles Quincy Troupe tells his people, the cops don’t care about you, buy a gun – earns the TSP salute of the week!

Episode-101- Monsanto and the Geneticallyy Modified Food Threat [ 42:13 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Today’s show is about Monsanto and the Genetically Modified Food Threat.  I wanted to take a day to really inform our listeners about how real the threat of Genetically Modified Food (GMOs) really is.

Tune in today to hear…

  • How the company that brought us PCBs, DDT and Agent Orange and told us they were all “perfectly safe” wants us to “trust them on their word” about GMOs!
  • How Monsanto knowingly poisoned the town of Anniston and are “proud of what they did”
  • The threats posed by “Round Up Ready” Canola and Soy
  • How ancient seeds are now being patented on a first come first serve basis
  • How the ancient of rule of agriculture (you must contain your threats from you neighbors) are being ignored by legal courtroom manipulation by Monsantos legal squad
  • How the issue of patenting life might be the biggest threat we face today
  • How GMO Cotton, Beets and Canola do effect the food supply even if you don’t personally eat them
  • How Monsanto has begun buying up almost all the independent seed companies
  • What you can do about all this, the only real thing you can honestly do!
  • Look at your hands and see your answer to this problem
