On the Free Ferry To Ocracoke North Carolina, My Favorite Stretch of NC Route 12
You pull up to the docks and you're already there
With that famous Ocean Breeze blowing through your hair.
You spend time at other places but you don't know why.
Because of that beautiful Ocracoke sky
One old man takes down your name and you wait for a while
then the captain of the Ferry waves all aboard and vehicles are loaded
Cars with boats, trucks, and the Lays potato chip man, scooters and bicycles
all looking to see that beautiful Ocracoke sky
Packed in like sardines the straps and harnesses are snapped, all eyes are on the ocean
Sea Gulls hover waiting for treats, when your lucky you will see Dolphins Swimming in unison next to the ferry.
People jump from their cars to catch all the sights
that is the prelude to that beautiful Ocracoke sky
One hour and 15 minutes you will ride as the North Carolina Ferry Taxi's you to the dock
but you weren't paying attention and never bothered with a clock
you knew that the Ocean was requiring it's dues
before it released you to that beautiful Ocracoke sky
the Ferry pulls to the dock and then the car ramp is lowered
and the engines of all the vehicles that came on board are started.
one by one they pull off in a certain order
as the Seagoing Opossum releases it's children to that Beautiful Ocracoke sky
You race the 12 miles to get to the town with a myriad of views to excite your senses
the speed limit 25 says you are there and a stop to Howards Pub refreshes after your Ferry ride
you park your car in the municipal parking lot and find your way
to your favorite spot to see the Beautiful Ocracoke sky
Thanks to the state of North Carolina and the Ferry System for taking my family and me safely to Ocracoke Island every year!

The Media Is Turning On President Obama, And All Are Going to Hang Themselves for Treason
It's About F**King Time
By Michael Goodwin of the New York Post
With multiple crises spiraling out of control around the world, stories about the Obama presidency are taking on the air of postmortems. What went wrong, who’s to blame, what next — even The New York Times is starting to recognize that Dear Leader is a global flop.
“Obama Suffers Setbacks in Japan and the Mideast,” the paper declared on Friday’s front page. The double whammy of failure pushed the growing Russian menace in Europe to inside pages, but even they were chock-full of reports about utopia gone wrong.
One story detailed how the White House was facing the “consequences of underestimating” North Korea’s Kim Jong-un. Others recounted the continuing Syrian slaughter and the murder of three Americans in Afghanistan.
The accounts and others like them amount to an autopsy of a failed presidency, but the process won’t be complete unless it is completely honest. To meet that test, the Times, other liberal news organizations and leading Democrats, in and out of office, must come to grips with their own failures, as well.
Obama had a free hand to make a mess because they gave it to him. They cheered him on, supporting him with unprecedented gobs of money and near-unanimous votes. They said “aye” to any cockamamie concept he came up with, echoed his demonization of critics and helped steamroll unpopular and unworkable ideas into reality.
Some of his backers knew better, and said so privately, but publicly they were all in. Whether it was ObamaCare, his anti-Israel position or the soft-shoe shuffle around the Iranian nuke crisis, they lacked the courage to object.
They said nothing as Obama went on foreign apology tours and stood silent as our allies warned of disastrous consequences. Even now, despite protests from a succession of Pentagon leaders, former Democratic defense hawks are helping Obama hollow out our military as Russia and China expand theirs and al Qaeda extends its footprint.
A king is no king without a court, and Obama has not lacked for lackeys. The system of checks and balances is written into the Constitution, but it is the everyday behavior of Americans of good will that makes the system work.
That system broke down under Obama, and the blame starts with the media. By giving the president the benefit of the doubt at every turn, by making excuses to explain away fiascos, by ignoring corruption, by buying the White House line that his critics were motivated by pure politics or racism, the Times and other organizations played the role of bartender to a man on a bender.
Even worse, they joined the party, forgetting the lessons of history as well as their own responsibilities to put a check on power. A purpose of a free press is to hold government accountable, but there is no fallback when the watchdog voluntarily chooses to be a lapdog.
The sycophancy was not lost on other politicians and private citizens. Taking their cue from the media, they, too, bit their tongues and went along as the president led the nation astray and misread foreign threats.
From the start, support for Obama often had a cult-like atmosphere. He sensed it, began to believe it and became comfortable demanding total agreement as the price for the favor of his leadership.
That he is now the imperial president he used to bemoan is no longer in dispute. The milking of perks, from golf trips to Florida to European vacations for the first lady, is shockingly vulgar, but not a peep of protest comes from his supporters.
The IRS becomes a political enforcer, but that, too, is accepted because nobody will risk their access by telling Obama no. You are either with him or you are his enemy.
The evidence is everywhere that his ideas are flawed, that his view of economics, diplomacy, the military, history, science and religion are warped by his own narcissism. He doesn’t even talk a good game anymore.
Yet it remains a fool’s errand to hope he will correct his ways. He is not capable; he looks in the mirror and sees only a savior.
It is equally clear that those who shielded him from facts and their own best judgment did him no favors. Out of fear and favor, they abdicated their duty to the nation, and they must share the burden of history’s verdict. After all, America’s decline happened on their watch, too.

The Enemy Within
People are waking as if from a dream
they are learning and losing from our governments schemes
We walk through the night of a repressive regime
And pray that God's might will soon steal the scene.
When the leader of the land deleted "In God We Trust"
He didn't care of the implications or the pain of the just.
And now we are here fighting government's volley
while the Senate and Congress continues their terrible folly
Teachers and postmen and police and the Press
have all taken up arms against the new terrorists
Families and Church's and people who work
are the ones the government have decided to shirk
Don't think if you "get along" you will avoid the coming mess
Or paying enough taxes will ease the stress
You know when you look they are coming for you
but you stick you head in the sand and try to placate them too
but it doesn't matter what you think, do or say
because it's not really about that anyway
they want to destroy all the things that were created
and make sure the ones to built it are fully sedated
But we are rising from the ashes not one day late
and looking around at what once was great
and now we begin to push back this great folly
and it is the govenment who readies to take the next volley
the power is all on the side of the tyrant
and the press says "all is well" when they know full well different
but now the destruction is just so pervasive
even the soccer Mom's are starting to see it.
and slowly but surely we push the evil back
while watching our backs for another attack
so get down on your knees and pray to God for Mercy
then you are half way down to the prone position when it gets dicey
On wing and a prayer we fight for our great nation
But all of our lives rest on the Almighty of Creation
And if at the end it becomes a war of attrition
Just pray for God's blessing and pass the ammunition!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I Wish it need not have happened in my time"
J.R.R. Tolkien > Quotes > Quotable Quote
“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
And yet, we are chosen to be here, all of us, in this time, for a reason. Find your purpose and fulfill it with all the passion and strength you can muster. For that is your calling and it must be fulfilled, even unto death. Pirate Morgan
Painful Times, Thanks Obama and the Democrats and the Republicans
You can't get blood out of a rock. Traditionally the United States has had a consumer-driven economy, but now years of declining incomes and rising debts are really starting to catch up with us. In order to have an economy that is dependent on consumer spending, you need to have a large middle class. Unfortunately, the U.S. middle class is steadily shrinking, and unless that trend is reversed we are going to see massive economic changes in this country. For example, in poor neighborhoods all over America we are seeing bank branches, car dealerships and retail stores close down at an alarming rate. If you didn't know better, you might be tempted to think that "Space Available" was the hottest new retailer in some areas of the nation. On the other hand, if you live in San Francisco, New York City or Washington D.C., things are pretty good for the moment. But as a whole, the condition of the U.S. consumer continues to decline. Incomes are going down, the cost of living is going up, and debts are skyrocketing. The following are 19 signs that the U.S. consumer is tapped out...
#1 Real disposable income per capita continues to fall. In the fourth quarter of 2012, it was sitting at $37,265. By the time that the fourth quarter of 2013 had come around, it had dropped to $36,941. That means that average Americans have less money to go shopping with than they did previously.
#2 In January, real disposable income in the U.S. experienced the largest year over year decline that we have seen since 1974.
#3 As disposable income decreases, major retailers are closing thousands of stores all over the country. Some are even calling this "a retail apocalypse".
#4 From September 2013 to January 2014, the personal saving rate in the United States dropped by a staggering 16 percent.
#5 During the fourth quarter of 2013, we witnessed the largest increase in consumer debt in this country that we have seen since 2007.
#6 Fewer Americans are applying for mortgages these days. In fact, the MBA Purchase Applications Index is now the lowest that it has been since 1995.
#7 Overall, the rate of homeownership in the United States has fallen for eight years in a row.
#8 Many Americans are finding it increasingly difficult to afford a new car or truck. The following comes from a recent CNBC article...
#10 Total consumer credit has risen by a whopping 22 percent over the past three years.
#11 In the third quarter of 2007, the student loan delinquency rate was 7.6 percent. Today, it is up to 11.5 percent.
#12 Overall, U.S. consumers are $11,360,000,000,000 in debt.
#13 While Barack Obama has been in the White House, median household income in the United States has fallen for five years in a row.
#14 U.S. workers are taking home the smallest share of the income pie that has ever been recorded.
#15 One recent study found that about 60 percent of the jobs that have been "created" since the end of the last recession pay $13.83 or less an hour.
#16 Middle-wage jobs accounted for 60 percent of the jobs lost during the last recession, but they have accounted for only 22 percent of the jobs created since then.
#17 According to one recent survey, only 35 percent of all Americans say that they are better off financially than they were a year ago.
#18 In 2008, 25 percent of all Americans in the 18 to 29-year-old age bracket considered themselves to be "lower class". In 2014, an astounding 49 percent of them do.
#19 The poverty rate in America has been at 15 percent or above for 3 consecutive years. That is the first time that has happened since 1965.
Despite what the mainstream media keeps telling them, most Americans know on a gut level that there is something fundamentally wrong with our economy.
According to Gallup, "Unemployment/Jobs" is the number one issue that Americans care about these days and the "Economy in general" is the number three issue that Americans care about these days.
Most people just want to work hard, make a decent living and take care of their families.
Sadly, that is becoming increasingly difficult to do.
And the numbers that I have shared above only tell part of the story. For a more personal side to all of this, I encourage you to read my previous article entitled "10 Stories From The Cold, Hard Streets Of America That Will Break Your Heart" if you have not done so already.
The really bad news is that this is about as good as things are going to get for the U.S. economy. The long-term trends that are eating away at our economy like cancer are intensifying, and our "leaders" just continue to act as if "business as usual" will somehow get the job done.
Most of them don't even realize that time is running out.
As I discussed yesterday, there is a lot of evidence that the massive financial bubble that the Federal Reserve has inflated is getting ready to burst.
When the next great financial crisis does strike, it is going to be absolutely disastrous. We are in far worse financial shape than we were back then, and this next round of financial trauma could truly be the "knockout blow" for the U.S. economy.
Let us hope for the best, but let us also prepare for the worst

A new study shows the average household in 24 of America's 25 largest metropolitan areas cannot afford to pay for the average priced new car or truck.#9 Incredibly, 56 percent of all Americans now have "subprime credit" at this point.
"Just because you can manage the monthly payment doesn't mean you should let a $30,000 or $40,000 ride gobble up such a huge share of your paycheck," said Mike Sante, managing editor of Interest.com. "Many people are spending money on a car payment that they could be saving."

Dear Connecticut Read This and Take Heart!
“Whenever the legislators endeavor to take away and destroy the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power, they put themselves into a state of war with the people, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience and are left to the common refuge, which God hath provided for all men, against force and violence.” ~ John Locke, 2nd Treatise on Government.
