The #SisterPatriots, Twitter Wars, & @ChristiChat

As the filthy pornographic attacks against Linda Suhler, racist attacks against Wayne Dupree, and insane attacks against #SisterPatriots have continued, I have worked hard to continue to do the real work of promoting  conservatism, while honoring women and serving  God.  At one point Sunday, I was so disgusted, all I could was pray.  I also tweeted those prayers onto the #SisterPatriots timeline.  The haters stopped attacking Wayne, Linda, and the #Hashtag immediately.  They did find it necessary to take screen shots of my tweets and make fun of my faith.  In my view, they mocked a genuine expression of faith and in so doing, mocked God himself.  After observing things last night, I see some evidence that the war may be coming to an end.  I certainly hope that is the truth.  There is no place for this kind of evil.  We need to be working together to save the country, not fighting each other.

Much of the hate leveled against #SisterPatriots has been people attacking Red Herrings and Boogie Men.  Principles that the sisters are not about, are attacked.  Behaviors that the sisters do not engage in, are demonized.  People who have nothing to do with #SisterPatriots, are said to be puppet masters and vilified.  An ex-husband of a founding member, has been painted as the incarnation of all that is liberal and New World Order.  The funny thing is, that if all the haters implied about the man was true, they would all be ruined. 

For all the insanity, there has been one clear consistent message from most of the haters.  This would be their attacks on @ChristiChat.  Some, even portray her as the only thing wrong with #SisterPatriots.  If the sisters and their defenders would simply vilify and cut off all contact with Christi, things would get better.  People have leveled serious charges against Christi.  I have received DM’s from people who said that the only problem was Christi, and that if I simply condemned her, all would be forgiven.

Wayne Dupree as been a model of manly decency in how he has handled attacks against him.  I have not spoken to Wayne,  and do not know him personally, but he has my respect.  Listen to his pod cast here.  I also heard him interviewed last night.  He again did a great job and was a gentleman.  He even called out one of his own team members, for a one sided article against the #SisterPatriots.  I've seen how Wayne defends his people.  The fact that he is also willing to chastise one, shows him to be a real leader.

If anyone wants to hear the real story of the Sister Patriots, they can listen to the second half of my Monday broadcast.  While it is not the exclusive topic, my complete experience with #SisterPatriots up until that point is interwoven.  If you have time, listen to the whole show, it’s a good one and is co-hosted by #PJNET founder, @DataGenesis.  Mark and I discuss how we have become friends and worked together to advance the conservative cause.

Since this broadcast, there have been a few developments.   We held a productive #REDMEAT Tweet Fest event with the Sister Patriots,  promoting a constitutionalist pro-life candidate.  The Sisters continue to do actual conservative work on twitter, while others engage in evil and games.  Some haters are proud to be engaged in the country saving work of being the self appointed Twitter Police Of Exposing Catfish.  Perhaps #TPOEC could be their new hashtag!  I attempted in good faith, to reach out to a few people who are against the #SisterPatriots.  This did not go well.  I have now reached the point where I believe almost all of the people actively and loudly screaming out against the #SisterPatriots,  with the exception of some #ORPUW folks, are dishonest people acting in bad faith.  I have many #ORPUW friends.   I do think some of these good folks in #ORPUW have been lied to and manipulated.

The other thing that has changed, is that I have taken the time to study the circumstances surrounding @ChristieChat.  Up until now, the only things I knew of her personally, was that she had always been gracious and kind to me and had never asked me to engage in nefarious activities.  She had done work promoting the conservative cause, when I had reached out to her.  I knew that there was smoke around her.  I knew she had spam blocked people, who had attacked her or her friends, in the past.   This is something that I think is ill-advised, but  I believe  people have every right to do to those who are in fact, spamming them.  Spam is in the eye of the beholder.  I knew she was snarky.  I'd seen her lose her temper and get ugly in a cat fight or two. 

In the minds of some, my association with Christi was a bad reflection on me.  More importantly to me, it was a bad reflection on my organization, The American Refugees.  I neither wanted to be harmed by the continued association  with someone who may not be worth it, nor did I want to throw a decent person under the bus or give in to people who want to tell me who I can follow or associate with.  I took the following steps, so I would know what do do.

• I prayed

• I looked at all information people had sent me against Christi

• I prayed

• I reached out to her enemies

• I prayed

• I reached out to her friends

• I prayed

• I reached out to Christi

• I prayed.

• I spoke with Christie.

• We prayed

Christi is no longer a woman I don’t know.  She is now a friend  I care about.  I’ve seen some of her defects and I have shown her some of mine.  She isn’t perfect.  None of us are.  She is better than the people attacking her.    

I’m sticking with  my friend, Christi, and the rest of the #SisterPatriots.  I’ll be ignoring the haters, who post pornography, threats, and gossip.  These people have only one purpose.  To destroy and create chaos.  They have now sunken to creating sock puppet accounts that try to turn people against the #SisterPatriots by tweeting filth in the name of the Sisters.  These people are reserving a special place in hell for themselves and they are making the liberals very happy.

If you can't work with  fellow conservatives you don’t like on Twitter, ignore them.  Starting wars and injecting filth harms all of us.  We have more important things to do.  The haters have some talents and admirable qualities.  They are organized and tenacious.  They can be funny.  I laughed out load the first time I saw myself called "Captain Underpants".  I was impressed with the photo-shopped  image of me adding 50 lbs to my waist.  If they used their talents for good, perhaps they could actually achieve something on Twitter.  I challenge them to do so.  If they aren't willing to work hard enough to create something new, perhaps they could join the great patriots for the #JusticeForBenghazi4 #RedMeat BBQ on Friday night, from 9-11pm ET.

Patriot Challenger to Cantor Starting to Catch Twitter Fire

From The Editors of The American Refugees Bloggers

Something is happening with the campaign of Commander Peter Greenwald, TEA Party Patriot challenging Majority Leader Cantor.  When Greenwald first showed up on our radar, a little over a month ago, few people had heard of him.  Just two weeks ago, he had about 700 Twitter followers and a dead timelime.  Now he is followed by over 2500 and his tweets are being ReTweeted 20 and 30 times a piece.  People are asking me about him in e-mails and phone calls. This "David" has patriots bringing him stones to use in his battle against "Goliath".

This tweet has 31 RT’s as I am wring this article at 4:30 pm ET. 2/4/14.

I am fighting to live and serve as a free man in Christ rather than accept serfdom under the ever growing tyranny of our federal government

— Peter Greenwald (@GreenwaldVA07) February 4, 2014

 

His other tweets are engaging people and gaining traction as well.  His tweets on the Fair Tax, securing the border, not raising the debt ceiling, supporting the second amendment, following the constitution, and replacing Cantor with a real conservative and a true leader are resonating with the base.

As excited as we get when we see things like this, we also get suspicious.  So, we started investigating Greenwald’s account for fake followers or paid ReTweets. His followers are 99% real and active and his ReTweets are checking out genuine as well.

Two things are clear. The base is falling in love with Greenwald and they don’t like Eric Cantor. In fact, the base feels betrayed by Cantor.  Why?

Cantor has been a loud voice for amnesty.  He has failed to sponsor or support HR36, which would create a select committee on Benghazi.  He fought for the Ryan-Murray deal which increased overall spending even while cutting pensions for our veterans.  While the Republicans have drifted left, Cantor's voting record is even worse than that of the average house republican.  Heritage Action gives him just a 61% percent score.  Under his leadership, the average Republican score is a pathetic 65%.  He is the very face of the moderate Republican establishment in DC.

We’ll have to watch to see if Commander Greenwald’s growing national Twitter army translates to boots on the ground in Virginia.  Ultimately votes in the 7th district of Virginia is what will decide this election.  There is no way Greenwald will come close to Cantor’s war chest of corporate, GOP establishment, and pro amnesty dollars.  He doesn’t need to.  He needs to raise enough money to get his message out and inspire about 20,000 people to get out and vote for him.  It’s good to see that he is making use of the tools available to him.  He is running an effective grassroots campain.

You can see The Greenwald Camapign website here.

 

The American Refugee Endorses Commander Peter Greenwald over Majority Leader Cantor.

There are two questions that must be answered in this article:

1. Why would you be willing to work your tail off and spend your $ to elect Peter Greenwald?
2. Why would you be willing to work your tail off and spend your $ to defeat Eric Cantor?

Let's tackle question 1 first.  We first want to assure you that The American Refugees has worked with a core group of activists and done our due diligence in vetting this man.  We have investigated this man and spoken with him.  We've prayed with him.  We've have become confident that he is the real deal, the only true grassroots TEA Party challenger to Cantor.  He has served our country as a Navy Commander, is a committed Christian, husband, and father.  As a first term congressman who is taking his campaign directly to the people, he is one of us and will continue to hear our voice, when he takes office.  Let's take a look at Peter on the issues.

• Strict Constitutionalist on all issues
• 100% Pro-Life
• Repeal ObamaCare
• Pro 2nd Amendment
• Supports the Fair Tax
• Opposes increasing the debt limit
• Pro Marriage
• Supports HR 36 and Justice for the Benghazi Four
• Opposes Amnesty
• Supports securing the border
• Eliminate the Department of Education
• Supports Term Limits for Congress

Now, to answer the second question.  Eric Cantor is now serving his 7th term in congress.  While Cantor has been very successful in amassing power and wealth for himself, he has lost touch with the base and has become one of the biggest forces in Washington for moving the Republicans to the left .  Somehow, he believes that if Republicans can only out Democrat the Democrats, the people will love them more. 

He has been a loud voice for amnesty.  He has opposed HR36, which would create a select committee on Benghazi.  He fought for the Ryan-Murray deal which increased overall spending even while cutting pensions for our veterans.  While the Republicans have drifted left, Cantor's voting record is even worse than that of the average house republican.  Heritage Action gives him just a 61% percent score.  Under his leadership, the average Republincan score is a pathetic 65%.  He is the very face of the moderate Republican establishment in DC.

Folks, please join me in supporting Peter Greenwald.  If you are in the 7th congressional district of Virginia, give him your vote. Wherever you are, go to his website, give money, volunteer, get involved.  Follow him on Twitter.  Pray for him.  He is in a David vs. Goliath battle and he needs your support.  My firends, Peter understands that we must  mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor, to restore this republic.  Join us, as we fight side by side with Peter, to get the job done.

For now, We Are American Refugees, sojouning in Ameritopia, a land we do not recognize.  We want our country back.  Through civil disoboedience, prayer, activism and electing leaders like Commander Greenwald, we will soon be able to proclaim: We Are Americans Rising.  #WAAR

 

THE 2014 STATE OF OBAMACARE

BY ROGER D'AQUIN, THE AMERICAN REFUGEE

Support The American Refugees

The American Refugees Blog

The ObamaCare Report

Let me start with full disclosure. I am rooting against ObamaCare and it’s website.  I hope if fails hard and fast.  This is because I believe a hard, fast, complete failure will lead to the full repeal of ObamaCare. This would restore liberty, save lives, save our healthcare system, and protect and restore our economy.  The “Success” of ObamaCare will mean we are not free, healthcare will suffer, and gradually overtime, the private insurance industry will be destroyed and we will move into a completely socialized system.  Americans will be more dependent, less free, and less healthy, with a weak economy.

Now, lets look at the facts.  Even with the supposed surge of enrollees at the December deadline to have coverage by January 1, the total number so far show the absolute failure of ObamaCare.  Lets take the administration’s inflated number of 2.1 million, (many of these people have yet to pay a premium) That is still far short of the 3.3 million goal they had set for the end of 2013.  Add to that the fact that so many people have lost healthcare coverage because of ObamaCare and it is clear that we now have fewer Americans with health insurance than before ObamaCare started.  This is only the start of the problems.  The people who have signed up have been far sicker and older than the Obama Administration had hoped.  Without corporate welfare to insurance companies, the death spiral of ObamaCare will soon begin.

The faster this failure happens, the better off Americans will be.  If the collapse happens quickly, it could lead to a Republican takeover of congress later this year and a conservative president in 2016. That would mean the repeal of ObamaCare before the private insurance system is completely destroyed.  If the collapse takes longer, for instance if insurance companies are propped up for a few years with corporate welfare and Dems stay in power, or old healthcare system will be completely destroyed.

It's important that patriots do what they can to see to it that this unconstitutional and deadly system fails as quickly as possible.  How do we do this?  We refuse to comply with this unconstitutional law.

Provisions in the ACA specifically denied the IRS their normal extraordinary super powers, when it comes to collecting the ObamaCare penalty. Their only means of collection involve deducting it from your tax return, billing you, or suing you.

Now, no one should be getting a tax refund unless they are a welfare case.  You should fill out your tax paperwork with your employer, so that you owe a little at the end of the year, not giving the feds a 0% loan of your own money.  The answer for those who pay taxes, is to simply calculate your tax liability without the ObamaCare fine, and pay only that.  Yes, the feds will hit you with penalties and interest and go this over to the next year. You should never pay these bills. Force the IRS to come after you in court; they can’t come after millions of us.

But Refugee, some argue, the Obama administration is not known for following the law. What if they simply start illegally seizing property and bank accounts? They may. This would be impeachable. I am not arguing that you take no risk when you stand up to the feds. I am telling you to grow a pair. Our founders faced for more threats and real consequences by standing up to King George than we do by standing up to King Obama.  We here, at The American Refugees, are doing our part.  I have no health insurance and will be no fine.  This is a fight about life, death, and freedom. There is nothing the federal government can do that will force me into compliance.

If you are willing to go to the levels I have to oppose Obama, there are a number of other ways you can protect yourself.  On the surface, I have no job.  I have no income and pay no income or other payroll taxes.  I neither own property, with the exceptions of my dogs and guns, nor have any bank accounts.  I have gone Galt, in my own way, going partially off grid.  I encourage others to do the same.

More important than medium risk people like me not signing up, is the very young and healthy not signing up.  If they don’t start signing up in much larger numbers, this system can’t support itself.  We now have to hope that young people are smart enough, patriotic enough, and libertarian enough that they will not enroll in over priced insurance they don’t need, that will destroy the country, and that they are being ordered to buy by an authoritarian regime.

Ayn Rand & Christianity

How can I be so inspired by both Christianity and Ayn Rand?

An Article by The American Refugee

Many TEA Partiers love Ayn Rand.  We adore her novels and many of us were profoundly changed by Atlas Shrugged.  Some people are confused by the popularity of Ayn Rand and aspects of her objectivism among Christian TEA Party conservatives.  As a Christian and Catholic, who is a constitutionalist conservative, I don’t have that problem.  I am absolutely inspired by Ayn Rand and pray that she found Jesus in the moments before her death.

America is rooted in rugged individualism and liberty as well as Judeo Christian morality and aspects of altruism.  Forced charity, by the state, is not charity at all.  It is tyranny.  It harms both those who have their money confiscated against their will and those who become dependent on what is not a safety net, but a dependency trap.

Ayn Rand tells us to act in our own rational self interest.  Christ taught us to love our enemies.  Love is a verb.  We love people by putting our desires aside and doing what is best for the other.  These two concepts are not contradictory.  Doing what is best for the other person rarely involves giving that person money.  It often doesn’t involve giving that person what he is asking for.  It sometimes involves doing something for him that he will curse you for.

We receive benefits each time we act in the interest of others. We experience good feelings, friendship, and experience the emotional form of love. Believers also believe that they are pleasing God by doing His will. There is no escaping that the fact of the matter is, that it is in our rational self interest to “Do unto others”. It is in our rational self interest to live by the will of God. It is in our rational self interest to ignore the selfish desires of our flesh and work for the glory of God and the betterment of others.

There is no doubt that Rand was an atheist.  I am not trying to minimize the difference between Rand and believers.  I am simply stating that most of Rand’s ideas are not at war with Christianity in the way many Objectivist Purists and liberals think.  Rand unfortunately only knew reason, and not faith, but the two are not incompatible.  Reason has lead me to many of the same places that faith has.

We do the moochers no good when we feed them.  We enable them in their destructive lifestyles.  We can help them by not denying them the dignity of the consequences of their own mistakes.  We can help them by opening a business, encouraging them to work for a living ,and offering them a job.  We teach them to fish rather than giving them fish.

At the same time, there are suffering children and those who are too broken to be able to take care of themselves.  We do a moral good, when we help them of our own free will.  We are not being heroes. We are simply acting in our own rational self interest.

Goals Of The Event

2Chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

• At the end of the event I will pray a rosary and I hope many of the Catholics in the room will join me.  Non Catholics are encouraged to have a prayer event themselves at the end.  This will be an interfaith event and all prayers are welcome.
• We hope to get as many people as possible actually praying to end abortion.  We will have prayers throught the event.
• We hope to raise awareness on twitter about the prolife cause and the importance of prayer. If we can trend #PrayToEndAbortion nationally, that will be a huge achievement.  If we can’t but we cause even one person to truly #PrayToEndAbortion, we have still been successful.
• Let’s network with one another and have a good time. This is a Christmas season gathering of pro-life believers.  I hope people will gain new friends and add more followers on Twitter.  We will have fellowship and support one another.
• Who knows? Maybe one young lady in a difficult situation will be inspired to pray and change her mind.  We might just save a life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Time For Revolution is Now

JOIN US AND FIGHT BACK AGAINST OBAMACARE

A CALL TO ACTION FROM THE AMERICAN REFUGEE

From Noon until 2PM EST this Saturday, November 30th, all patriots are invited to be a part of two hours of organizing, tweeting and ReTweeting, to oppose ObamaCare and do our best the crash the Website, www.healthcare.gov. There will be a video teaching you exactly what to do, tweet buttons to press to send out grass roots submitted anti-ObamaCare tweets, and patriots are encouraged to ReTweet everyone else participating.  In addition to performing a patriotic service, it is a great way to gain new followers and get a tremendous amount of exposure on Twitter. There is also a chat room, and for those of you who are comfortable with it, video chat is available.  You will be able to see and speak with other grass roots patriots.  Everyone can engage in this part of our day without risk.

Our Hub, which will actually work, will be the Red Meat Steakhouse, provided by PJNET.  You can check the SteakHouse out now, but understand that our tweets will not be loaded and our video playing untill the event starts at noon EST, Saturday.  The event is sponsored by The American Refugees and we are paying for the room.  Your contributions to cover these costs are not required, but would be greatly appreciated. Donate at The American Refugees here.

For those of you who are not afraid and support our tactics, during but also at the end of this two hour organizing session, we will launch our attack on www.HealthCare.Gov.  Hackers are encouraged to hack and those of you who know how to launch DOS attacks or know other means of bringing down a website, are encouraged to have at it.  For the rest of us, we are all encouraged to do 2 things.

• Invest some time trying to create a bogus account with bogus information at Helthcare.gov

• Repeatedly reload the website and hit different pages over and over again

Don't just hit your refresh button. Make sure you keep hitting a link to the URL and hitting different pages.  You don't want to just reload from your browser's cache.  The idea is to actually tie up the website causing delays and hopefully crashing it.

This is an act of peaceful, disobedient, revolution against an illegal and unconstitutional enterprise.  It is not without risks.  You can have no expectation of privacy from the Obama regime. It is entirely possible that the post constitutional government will know who you are and come after you.  This is an act of legitimate and peaceful revolution by civil disobedience, for people who are both serious and brave.

I want you guys to know how seriously I take this event and this cause.  Normally, on Saturday's, I am on the streets handing out US Constitutions and preaching liberty.  This Saturday, I am giving that up to do this.  I also want you to know that I do not encourage anyone to take risks that I am not willing to take.  Yes, I go by The American Refugee, @mericanrefugee on Twitter, but I am not in hiding. To make my point:

My name is Roger D'Aquin.  I live at 4402 Eastern St New Orleans, LA.  I will not comply with ObamaCare.  I will purchase no health insurance and pay no fine.  I am on a tax strike and will pay no federal income taxes until we have returned to constitutional government.  I will not live in fear.

We Are American Refugees. We know longer recognize our country and we want it back. We are sojourning in post constitutional Ameritopia. Come join us.  Be a hero and fight for America.  The revolution is at hand.  We Are Americans Rising.  #WAAR
