Across the empire, many States are delaying send out income tax refunds. At this point, the talk is about a few months. This action shows how little regard the States have for the citizen’s. When they demand funds from the citizen’s they are not so generous as they expect the citizens to be. I have already been hearing about how the empire is months behind in refunds as well. Although there has been lots of talk about stimulus, the reality is that …it is smoke and mirrors. When it comes to our money, they want time and patience, which they are not so willing to provide when the money is owed to them.

I support the adage of ‘render unto Ceasar what is Ceasar’s’. I wonder if the reverse of that is true as well?

Other signs of the times are that the New York Times is painting with a broad brush and claiming that all the people involved in the patriot movement are Confederate loving. Although that would be nice, not all of them are that devoted to freedom and liberty. Through ignorance, many of the patriots do not recognize the the importance of liberty and how the Confederate cause was about liberty.Here in Texas, I saw some of that same rhetoric in the debates concerning the textbooks. It seems that whenever anyone disagrees with a liberal, they are branded as Jesus-loving, Confederate flag waving extremists. It seems that open-minded types are not so open-minded when they are disagreed with. The increasing rancor of the rhetoric and how it is driven by the NYT suggest that Southrons are being scapegoated once more as being the source of all problems in the empire.

Let us stand proud and be counted. We are driving them nuts.

Liberty for Texas and the South!
