Article IV Section 4.
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

“He was a good soldier and did a good thing. … to those men he saved. …”

Really! “A good thing?” so they would be free to terrorize the country side murdering more Iraqis, making more enemies – in my name? 1,000,000,000 Iraqis are dead; 5,000,000,000 Iraqis are homeless, thanks to “your heroes.” How many more Iraqis have to be murdered by your Kenyan president’s goon squads before my freedom is secure?

“And if you really served in our armed forces, don’t shoot your load off because your military career lacked brilliance. …”

Okay, fair enough, “my military career lacked brilliance.” Here is a military career that shines throughout all eternity – Smedley Darlington Butler, twice awarded the Medal of Honor:

I spent thirty-three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country’s most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle-man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.

I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.

During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.

There isn’t a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its “finger men” to point out enemies, its “muscle men” to destroy enemies, its “brain men” to plan war preparations, and a “Big Boss” Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism. It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to.

I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we’ll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.

I wouldn’t go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

“[I]t is about out sacrifices that define us, not what Article of what we can cut and paste, or what book we have read as we click on a keyboard and try to make a point to people that could care less about your, or me for that matter.
Anyone can sit back and hold up a book and say “see, see, I don’t have too! Your wrong and I’m right!” as they read books and letters from 200 years ago.” I am assuming that you are referring to the Constitution that your terrorist heroes swore an Oath to “protect and defend,” the very same Constitution that they have sold out for the sake of a twenty-year retirement, just as Judas sold out our Lord and Savior for thirty pieces of silver (About 208 “dollars” in your unconstitutional, depreciating Federal Reserve Notes that your high-paid mercenaries are so proud to say they are protecting me from).

“BUT UNTIL THEN KEEP YOUR IGNORANT LITTLE TRAP SHUT! Our constitution might protect your freedom of speech legally, but it won’t protect your silver-spooned face from being decorated red, white, and blue at likes of me and many other Americans who have endured the loss of such patriotism whether it be in family, friendship, or brothers-in-arms. WHY DON’T YOU SPEAK YOUR SMALL-MINDED ILL WILL TO THE TWO SEALS WHO ARE STILL HERE WITH US!” Are capital letters indicative of shouting and losing one’s temper? It must be because I have not read one single train of logical thought in your mindless jingoistic, flag-waving ramblings. And what make you think that I am “old money,” that is the “silver spoon” you refer to? You know nothing of my socio-economic status. You are only assuming that I am wealthy because I am able to construct a syllogism. Intelligence is no indicator of financial status, just look at your two heroes, Republican (fascist/socialist) George W. Bush, and Democrat (socialist/fascist) Al Gore, Jr.: Bush could hardly utter an extemporaneous paragraph without adding a new word to the English lexicon; Gore barely made through Harvard, and flunked out of divinity school. Yet both men are multi-millionaires. And I really do not think I have the small mind. You have yet to refute any of the logical arguments that I have raised. You only tactic is to wrapped yourself in a red, white and blue symbol of a government that is out of control, and call me “small-minded.” But you are correct, I do wish those two Sea, Air, and Land ForcEs (a.k.a. “SEALs”) – and anyone else who has violated his or her oath by kicking a Muslim hornet’s nest – “ill will.” I will tell those two cowards that as soon as you provide an e-mail address for me.

“Times have changed people. I recall the scene in the movies when Al Pacino shouts ‘your [sic] out of order, your [you’re] out of order…’”

Okay you are quoting from “And Justice for All.” It is one of my favorite movies. But what is your point? BTW, did you know that the Pledge of Allegiance was written by a socialist who wanted to use it as a loyalty oath to big, and bigger, government? Something you flag-waving, militaristic conservatives should know. That is why I will not say the Pledge: I am not a communist like you; I am a constitutionalist. I believe in all of the Constitution, including Article IV, Section 4 – which forbids what is going on in Iraq right now.

“It matters not whether the battlefield remain abroad or come to the homefront. These same soldiers and patriots will be the ones protecting us on either front, and you my ingnorant [sic] coward will promise to seek cover while shouting cries of help to these same BROTHERS-IN ARMS!!!!!!!! GROW[sic]”

“[D]on’t ruin a man’s memorial by politics [sic]”

The man already ruined his own memorial by his treasonous conduct.

I grow very weary “arguing with a stop sign.” Please read my responses to “jvlt,” “Ward” and “Julian.” They have not answered the arguments I raised, and I cannot improve upon them – in the absence of any solid refutation, which the five of you have yet to do. I do invite you to look at my web site, http://www.USchronology.com. I ask you to do a search on the phrase, “While United States Armed Forces.” You will get over five-hundred documented hits in which your precious soldiers have failed to protect our constitutional freedoms “against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” Until then, quit watching FOX News, and read a book. May I suggest you begin with, Bin Laden: The Man Who Declared War on America, by Yossef Bodansky. There you will find out the real reason why Osama attacked us; and had nothing “to do with our freedoms.”

Anyone can sit back and hold up a book and say “see, see, I don’t have too! Your wrong and I’m right!” as they read books and letters from 200 years ago. Times have changed people. I recall the scene in the movies when Al Pacino shouts “your out of order, your out of order…”

— I’m sorry to those who argue about the war/gov’t/Bush being a war crimnal/ or Obama’s birth certificate – very few people care about you for the most part. Stay behind your monitors were you are out of the way of people that work, and keep you safe at night.

You are just 1 vote, so use it, don’t ruin a man’s memorial by politics.

“Mike Monsoor and thousands of others have made the ultimate sacrifice so [I am] able to sit freely and write [my] opinion?” Please tell me what is the annual quota of sacrificial brave/brainwashed 19 year-olds necessary to secure my Freedom of Speech? One? Ten? A hundred? A thousand? How many innocent women and children have to be napalmed a year to secure that freedom? How many farmers’ fields have to be forever poisoned with the radioactive dust of depleted uranium artillery shells in order to secure that freedom? Please read my dialogue with Julian and Ward: Our freedoms are secured through Trial by a Fully Informed Jury – fully informed of their right and duty to disregard the facts of a case and suspend unjust statutes, or statutes applied in an unjust manner. Freedom has nothing to killing innocent people who have been oppressed and brainwashed by foreign dictators.

You say that someone who has betrayed his Oath to the Constitution is the “ultimate hero?” Please justify that using logic, and not this militaristic, flag-waving emotionalism that you false-patriots are so famous for. You can start by answering the arguments that I presented earlier in this string to Julian, who has yet to refute my answers to your train of thought. Have you ever read the Oath of Enlistment? Have you ever read the war powers of the Constitution? Have you ever read a Federalist</ essay? No? I did not think so. Who is the one who really needs to do the research? You should start with #69, published by Alexander Hamilton, on March 14, 1788.

No, I am not fortunate to live in your nation. And yes, you are correct I do not like your government. In fact I wish that you and all of your fellow neo-conservative, jingoistic, dominionist Republican flag wavers would take your irredeemable paper Federal Reserve Notes, your Marxist income tax, your Australian secret ballot, and your gun-grabbing National Rifle Association; and go live somewhere else: Go live in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Zimbabwe, North Korea, Obamaland, anywhere where they do not have a Constitution. Leave those of us who love and understand liberty, the Law – the Constitution for the united States – free to rebuild our Union of sovereign States that was destroyed by your ideological predecessors in the 1860s. Please leave while we still have a chance, before the cops and soldiers finally do come bursting through my front door, thus making a liar out of you.

BTW, I am willing to allow anyone to stay regardless of race, religion, creed, gender, sexual orientation, immigration status, or whatever, so long as they do not view an election as a chance to “vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury,” as you seem to believe the United States Armed Forces are entitled to do.

The cries of fear and of pain were drowned in the martial music of drums, trumpets, and attaballs; and experience has proved, that the mechanical operation of sounds, by quickening the circulation of the blood and spirits, will act on the human machine more forcibly than the eloquence of reason and honor.
