Ron Paul Slams Federal Interference In Oil Spill Relief Efforts | Ron Paul Daily Campaign for Liberty

Ron Paul Slams Federal Interf

As tar balls from the BP oil spill wash into Galveston, Texas, Congressman Ron Paul has slammed federal interference in the relief effort that is hampering local attempts to mitigate the consequences of the disaster, mimicking how the feds deliberately botched the response to hurricane Katrina and made the crisis worse.

"They have done a lot to interfere," Paul told National Political Correspondent Jessica Yellin on CNN's "John King USA."

"A lot of local officials, property owners and state officials have wanted to do more over in Louisiana and Mississippi and the federal government, the fish and wildlife people, the EPA and others, they come in and they prohibit them from doing it," said Paul.

The Congressman also added that if large numbers of National Guard troops were not deployed oversees fighting endless wars, there might be more manpower to call upon in aiding relief efforts.

"If all our states had their Guard units back here maybe they would have the manpower to do more to help clean up the beaches and prevent the oil from coming in, but, no, our Guard units are all over the world fighting wars we don't need," said Paul.

In hindsight, it's becoming clear that the government has deliberately botched the response and prevented local authorities from doing their jobs, just as FEMA deliberately sabotaged the state response to Hurricane Katrina in order to make the crisis worse and create the pretext for a police state response, gun confiscation and ultimately more federal powererence In Oil Spill Relief Efforts | Ron Paul Daily Campaign for Liberty

More Lies

I swear, is it ever going to end?  Again last night I was informed of some of the utter lies that John has been telling people about me.  The latest is that I "threatened" his daughter.  What a pathetic freaking loser. To have to go so far as to tell people that I would EVER even consider pulling a child into this mess.  What is even more telling is.... why would HE pull his own daughter into it?  What an absolute loser. 
I don't know what they expected of us when we got there. Well now I suppose I DO know.  They wanted a couple of slaves.  And he got pissed off because I up and quit doing anything around there. Why should I?  To what end was it beneficial to Mars or to myself?  It wasn't enough that Mars was working 40 hours (more or less) a week ... I was supposed to do the same? 
The level he stooped to in trying to get revenge is at best pitiful and a direct reflection on his character.  It is one thing to block me on his FaceBook so I cannot see the lies he is posting there or even to "deny" me membership to his lame website.  It is quite another for him to post the things he did on the American Preppers site.  He is lucky I don't sue him for defamation. And trust me the thought has crossed my mind. And then he had the audacity to go onto the forums there and delete every post I have ever made there and to delete my membership as well.  I guess that one is biting him in the ass though.  His administrative powers have been pulled. I have been a member or those forums for years.  Way before he was even involved.  And for him to pull ALL my posts and delete them is not only childish but it showed everyone just what sort of person he really is.  There are alot of pissed off people because of this.  Tom has asked me not to say anything about it.  I have to admit it is extremely hard to keep my mouth shut.  I want so badly to stand up and defend myself. But to do that would just give that jerk more exposure. And yet on the other hand I would love for EVERYONE  to know the truth about what he did to us.

Things You Didn't Know

The following posts are not in the order that they should be.  They are all taken from my Word Pad during the time we were staying at J&C's.  If they sound bitter....well so be it.  We got  screwed royally by these people.  I hope no one else gets sucked into their bullshit like we did.  It is apparently what you get for trusting and believing in some people. 

I figured I wanted a place where I could rant or bitch if I wanted to and so this blog was started.  My other blog really isn't the place for some of the feelings and all that I sometimes have.  Besides, everyone has a bit of a "dark" side right?

I am still quite bitter about what has come about in the last 6 months.  People think I should move on and get over it. I am trying to do that but sometimes I still need to express my anger.  That is what this blog has started as.  I don't know where it will go from here (if it goes anywhere at all) but I suppose that is my prerogative!

Wednesday, June 16, 2010
Well to say it has been an interesting 24 hours would be quite an understatement.  Apparently John didn't like my post . Well the ONE sentence  anyway -about us not getting any of the squash from the seeds we gave him.   Hey, I didn't even mention all the turnips (again OUR seeds) they sold. They were kind enough to give us two of those!  He came down here yesterday raising hell and told us we had a week to "get the f*%k out".  Mars tried to talk to him but he would have none of it.  To say we were surprised would be an understatement.  Stunned is more like it. 
After all the work around here that Mars has done I just don't understand it.  Well Mars got pissed and wrote out all the hours he had worked, what he had built, what they had been using of ours, all the tools (his own) he had used to get things done around here.  Then took all the hours and added them up at $5.00 an hour (cheap yeah?) and deducted rent, electric, even the 5 dozen or so eggs we got from them over the last 3 months and still came up with over an additional $1,300.00 .  Well he took his up to their house, handed it to them and walked away.  I mean it was just to make a point .  We have not been living here sucking off them.... we have both been working out here.
Next thing you know here comes John AND Carrie down here to the trailer raising hell and toting a video camera and both carrying sidearms.and   WTF??  Guns?  I could NOT believe it.  Chalk it up to drinking I guess but it was totally uncalled for. Brought back our water hoses, extension cords, and the computer router( which he slammed on the concrete) tossed it all in the dirt and started screaming. They told us we had 24 hours to get out of here.  And if we didn't like it they would call the sherrif and make a complaint against us for trespassing.  Trespassing?  We have been living here for over 3 months!  Mars and I were both like WTF is going on???  Stupid shit to be sure.  Then they went back to their house and shut off the electricity and the water to our trailer.   
Now I don't know if its just me or was that shit totally uncalled for?  All because I actually posted to the internet about some stupid produce? 
We left this morning to try and find a place to move the trailer too and before we left Mars went to their door to tell them we would be back... Check this out... Carrie's daughter was in the yard, saw us and ran like she was scared into the house.  Carrie comes to the door holding a freaking gun.  Come on... like we are killers or something? Just stupid. 
This afternoon we came back to start packing and Mars went to talk to John to see if he would be reasonable and give us at least a few days to move.  Hell it took more than a day to move in... how are we supposed to move out in one?  Well to give John some credit  he gave us till Monday.  Such a nice guy!
 I have to say after the time spent here and all the nasty things he has written online about this whole situation I won't be sorry to leave.  And I'm certainly not going to miss either of them.

I cannot stand people who spout on and on about things online without the ability to apply those same principles in their REAL lives.  Those who will be the first to speak out on places like FaceBook or someplace like it against the way things are in this country. About  how we are loosing our rights. How we have a right to our freedom of speech in this country and yet in their daily lives they censor those who do not agree with them.  Freedom of speech for themselves is what they mean apparently.  God forbid that anyone else opens their mouth and might have a different view.  All of the sudden you see them do an abrupt about face.  Talking the talk and can't even walk the walk if you know what I mean.  I have met people like that over and over again. So I don't really know why it continues to surprise me when I meet yet another one.  It seems that we have become a nation of  those who will spout off constitutional "rights" and yet do not allow the people in their lives any of those same rights.  "It's all about me"  seems to be the only real motto alot of people  live by anymore. 

Due to the situation I find myself in over the last few months I have been unable to write what I see going on around me.  I might offend someone.  And if I offend them they hold the cards with which to alter my life in some way.  Oh, I am free to say anything I want as long as I don't actually tell the truth as I see it.  As long as it sheds a good light on those around me.   As long as it is "agreeable" with "them".

Thursday, June 17, 2010 Scattered and Scarce

You have heard the phrase " There are good days and there are bad days".   More true words were never spoken.  This has been an exceptionally bad one. But as Forest Gump would say  "I guess that's all I have to say about that".

 If my posts become scattered and scarce I apologize up front.  It seems I will be having to make trips to the library to use the computer.  Life has a way of playing games with weird rules tossed in now and again.  And apparently God has a warped sense of humor. But who am I to argue right?  Things will work out ... they always do.  It doesn't  mean that I have to like it!  Things should get back to normal eventually.

I was just talking the other day about how very cool small towns are. They are also a bit fickle if you are looking for things. Don't get me wrong.. I stil really want to live just outside of a Little Big Town.  BUT.... Try finding enough moving boxes to pack more than a couple at a time.  We had already sifted and sorted through all our things when we sold the old trailer. I'm not seeing that there is  much more "letting go" of stuff than we already have.  So the search will continue the next few days for more boxes.

Why have I got Forrest Gump on the brain?  This phrase keeps running through my head now... "Life is Like a Box Of Chocolates.. you never know what you are going to get". 

P.S  To all my buddies in the APN Chat Room.... I might be gone for awhile but save my seat... I Ain't Done Yet!

We are Screwed

Well things certainly have a way of going to hell in a handbasket pretty quickly.  Because I wrote something that our host considered offensive on my last garden update on Monday we have been asked to vacate the property by the first of the week.  We have no destination, as we had no idea we would be kicked out on such short notice.  We are also less than $300.00 from being destitute. I don't know what we are going to do. 

We had thought that we could have made another six weeks or so with that money as we haven't had many expenses since being here.    But to have to pack up and find another place to live, and the cost of fuel to move the trailer we are pretty much screwed.  I just don't know what we are going to do.  I can't even make phone calls (Skype)  as they have shut off our internet access.

I hope to hear from Social Security within the next couple of weeks concerning my approval.  I have an appointment for a blood test on Tuesday.  I have to drive 130 miles to go have it done.  Great system we have here right? After that it shouldn't take more than a couple of weeks to get an answer from Social Security as to my acceptance.  Until then... I just don't know what we will do.

I am now limited to wi-fi hot spots and the library so I don't know how often I will be able to post.  Prayers and good thoughts in our direction would be greatly appreciated right now.

Sunday, June 20, 2010

This whole thing has been extremely hard on Mars.  He has worked his butt off out here.  He feels he has been used and I can't say that I blame him at all.   All the trees in the field have been cut and the stumps pulled, the tilling done, the seeds all planted, the old house torn down, a septic dug, the rabbit hutches and nesting boxes built, electrical work done, the 18x18 Vegetable stand built and a miriad of other things that he has done around here.
    Now it seems that since all the hard work has been done they just don't need him here anymore. He has been working 6 days a week at least 5-6 hours a day for almost 4 months now. That doesn't include any of the things that I have done around here. Like feeding and watering 20+ rabbits twice a day 7 days a week for three months or watering the gardens etc...
   And out of the blue for us to be evicted with less than a weeks notice seems to be quite unfair to say the very least.
   We have been packing up most of the day.  There is NO way all our things are going to fit in the RV.  I don't know what we are going to do about that.  But we will figure something out.  When one door closes another one will open, right?  I just have to keep reminding myself to be positive.  Everything in this life happens for a reason.
