Accountability Begins with You

This is how it all started…

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Our Founding Fathers set out on a great, untested, unproven experiment, to create a nation built upon the consent of the people. It had never been done before, and the risk to our Founding Fathers cannot be understated.

This nation is 250 years old as of the year 2026. We are still a young nation as far as the world goes, but in our short existence we have overcome obstacles both great and small. Technically we should not even exist as we took on the world’s greatest superpower, Great Britain, and won. Two world wars challenged us, and we rose up and defended freedom sending those dictators to the trash heap of oblivion.

Then came two more wars, which were not battlefield engagements, but political theater. Korea became a stalemate, and Vietnam we lost. When politicians try to fight wars, this nation loses. And we lose big. Egos become more important than defending and ensuring freedom. And our young often pay the price for those egos in blood.

Our nation is filled with challenges and massive obstacles, many of which we have defeated and overcame, but only because great leaders chose freedom over capitulation. Something that is becoming very rare these days.

Today we are in another battle for the soul of our nation. Some say we are on the verge of a second civil war. I disagree and believe we are now engaged in that second civil war. Not over slavery but over freedom, to stop the elites from, well, actually enslaving us and forcing us to worship them as gods.

Blood has been spilled and people have died because the elites and political pawns are more addicted to power than freedom. Power for them, slavery for the rest of us. It is an addiction worse than heroin.

Sorry, not my style. I believe in the power of the Constitution. A document with words that have meaning, words that have guided us for 250 years, words that inspire us, words that deliver us from the horrors of dictators, and words that separate us from the rest of the world.

The U.S. Constitution is only a piece of paper, but it has changed the world in ways never seen before. And that concept alone makes it worth saving. Makes this nation, our land, our home, worth saving.

This website is not a history lesson, although history is critical to understanding where we are these days. This website’s primary focus is on educating you, informing you, on how politicians and politics influence your day-to-day life. How these forces affect you, your family, and your psyche.

You may say you have no interest in politics but unfortunately politics and politicians have a great interest in you. These days there is no escaping this fact and the sooner you understand these forces the sooner you can get back to a normal way of living. If such a thing is even possible.

Accountability

Politicians throw the word “accountability” around like it is tissue paper. For them it is a buzz word that makes them sound important and wise. Something most of them are not.

Yet that word, accountability, has meaning, a vital meaning. And it begins with self. Accountability begins with you. Accountability begins with me. Accountability begins with each of us.

Each of us is responsible for our actions, be they good or bad. Positive or negative. This is a law of life and one that cannot be disregarded by anyone. Many outside forces may tell you that you are not responsible for your actions, but they are lying through their teeth. At some point your actions will catch up with you and you will be forced to confront the Karma that awaits you. Be it positive or negative.

I am not above this law by any means, but I know I am accountable for my actions. Because of this knowledge I try my best to stay in the positive column and consider most of my actions before I act. Sometimes I fail miserably at this quest to my detriment. Yet in the grand scheme of things those times are far and few between, and when I do mess up, I mess up pretty good, so recovery is easier, at least for me.

This Website

When I look back on my actions, both positive and negative, I realized that I have failed in my duties to Divine Providence and my family. I have not lived up to my expectations, much less what Divine Providence and my family expects of me.

I created my first html static website years ago with these principles in mind. But I let other elements of life get in the way. In the creation of this version of GPMCC the same thing began to happen. I found myself drifting and I was becoming lost. I was reverting to my old ways/habits.

Yet that environment did not last long. Because this format is different from my static html site, I know upkeep and maintenance will be much easier and more frequent. However, the re-learning process has been steep and sometimes difficult, and very often frustrating.

This part of the website is static, which means it won’t change much in the grand scheme of things. What will change are the blog post. When they are updated is the main issue I have to address. As of this writing I have no way to convey when the blogs are updated, something I am working on. As I mentioned I had to relearn many things, but I also have to learn new things. And that issue is sometimes a real challenge.

With a html static site this would not be an issue but with WordPress… well that is a completely different story. My goal is to do something unique and unusual with the notifications. The issue becomes what and how. I will figure it out, I always do. It may take a while, but I always figure it out. In the mean while just keep an eye on the Julian date at the bottom of this page. When it changes, then the website has changed.

As you explore these pages make sure you visit and read the Privacy and Disclaimer pages. They contain information you should be aware of.

I look forward to seeing where this version leads. It could stay small, it could grow. Only time will tell… that and my imagination. At any rate welcome aboard and if my thoughts, opinions, and words help you see how politics shapes your life, and makes you aware, then I have done my job.
