I can’t believe that out of over 300 small farms I have only had one person who showed any sign of care about how the current administration is taking over our lives - its called creeping Marxism, folks. Please care or lose it all in the future
Am I in the NRA? No. John Birch? No. Militia?. No. Educated. Yes. Astronomy Club. Yes. Artists union - I dropped out three times. Age, 59. background: Geologist, Oil field engineer, hazardous waste, all retired, and farming for 11 years now.
Why am I concerened? We as farmers have a lot to lose. If you think you “control a food source” and it will give you insulation from the modern progressives' (see dictionary) idea of social and economic justice - forget that. Right now there are “orgs” - the dot orgs that are creeping into the small farm community and buying mostly food items under the guise of “from farm to you” and you can substitute any word for the “you” - could be school, urban, children.
And when you read their dot.org mission statement - if they haven’t already erased it due to the media attention on the phrases - you might find “Economic and social justice, and / redistribution. Check it out. The dot.org may seem nice but their underlying future objectives are to establish a presence and be up and running - which they are. That is, if they have those key words in their mission statement. They are right under my own inquisitive nose and have been for the past three years. We no longer do business with them. Cost $1500 in business.
Don’t take my word for it. Check them out for yourself if you do business with them. I can’t baby-sit everyone. I’m having trouble keeping up the the loads of dirt the Obama crowd keeps dumping here in California where ACORN.org had or had 37,000 members a’workin’ on creating a better future for you. Boy, that was an eyeopener, wasn't it? These organizations spring up around radical academic's such as Berkeley and the San Francisco area. I am sure you have such cities in your state, too.
I don’t want to lose this country just because it was more important to write about chickens and pigs and fruit and and birds. Right now the country desperately needs every small farmer to pass the truth along.
Please write. If you are afraid to write - tell us what you want to say and we will do it for you - we will leave your name out and send your concerns to whomever you want.
I will give you an example of the power of the net.
The National Endowment for the Arts was found to have been used by the White House to encourage left-wing artists to create art that would further Obama’s policies -
Well, that was unacceptable as soon as I heard it on the news and that night I went through the local art people with web sites, all of Craigslist and the artist on it in Orange, Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties. I stopped at one hundred exactly. I described the issues - The White House using the NEA to compel artists across the nation (who they give grants to) IS COMPLETELY ILLEGAL!
So I sent 100 e-mails to complete strangers, got some really great hate mail - all about racism although they never bothered to ask me what color my skin was - but I did get a handful of artists, some very young, some females with some big confidence and heart - and they promised they would do what they could. Use their email lists and facebook and pass the word.
Guess what? The next day or the day after the fellow who was responsible for those “hopefully safe conversations" they had as a conference call from the White House to the National Endowments for the Arts (the entity that distributes grants to artists, grants = 50 million from Obama), was “reassigned. FIRED! Below is an email I received today from those emails sent to the NEA
Thank you for your interest in the National Endowment for the Arts. Please see this link for a September 22, 2009 statement by NEA Chairman Rocco Landesman regarding the August 10 conference call:
We did that. Ourselves and people like us who reached out, contacted strangers who are like-minded, and this happened in every city (without anyone contacting me as part of an organization), and berg and across the 50 states, and like a wave it hit the White House. A tsunami of citizen artists speaking out against the evil's of corruption of the process (using taxpayer money to fund partisan policy - and buying that favor ahead of time with 50 million dollars of money to the NEA).
So right now, a bunch of "local, numb-skull, flaky artists" have the "American Small Farmers" nation-wide beat hands-down on overall, "Give-a-shit quotient".
So what's up with that?
