IT'S TIME TO GET INVOLVED

 I know, many people don't like politics but let's face it, if you're alive, have family, eat food and buy gas, you're already involved. The most important thing we can do for our country and ourselves is to make sure Barak Obama is not re-elected. We also need to get some new conservative blood into Congress, both the House and the Senate. Tea Parties are doing this on the local level now and were responsible for the November 2010 reversals suffered by the Democratic Party. We need to help continue that trend. I am going to be contributing articles to the Clear Lake Tea Party and urge you to donate or volunteer with your own local Tea Party. The following article by Robert Ringer explains how Obama's radical agenda led to the formation of the Tea Party concept. As much as I cannot stand Obama and his policies, I agree with Ringer that his being elected awakened a lot of people to the destructiveness of the Progressive movement.

I'm going to temporarily suspend this newsletter and concentrate on the Tea Party newsletter but I am saving all of your emails and will make sure you get updates from time to time.  Let's pitch in to win one for the Gipper.

Negatives, Positives, and The Natural Law of Balance: Why Obama is Responsible for the Tea Party
By Robert Ringer - Tuesday, March 13, 2012

An interesting question from reader ...
Robert, I have been going back through your audio program Path to Power once again and would like to see you expand on a topic. In the program you make it very clear that every perceived negative has an off-setting positive, and yet we are all fighting hard to stop Barry and the leftists from taking over the country.
I find myself fighting discouragement over future prospects based on how this coming USA election goes, and yet, according to your Path to Power training, this really shouldn't bother me.
Your thoughts as to the "there is no such thing as a negative" as it specifically applies to our current leftist administration, please!
A fair question. It's absolutely true that for every (perceived) negative, there is an offsetting positive. Unfortunately, people are usually not enlightened enough to recognize the offsetting positives when something bad happens in their life.
I like to refer to this as the Natural Law of Balance, which is pretty much synonymous with Emerson's Law of Compensation. Simply put, the universe is in balance. We see it at work all around us: electrons and protons, night and day, male and female, hot and cold, life and death, two sides to a coin. Nothing is one way: For every positive, there's an offsetting negative; for every negative, there's an offsetting positive.
Back in 2008, I upset a lot of people by saying that those of us who want to live in a free country would be better off if Barack Obama won the presidential election rather than Mush McCain. Had McCain become president, it would be have been viewed by most conservatives as a positive. But they would have been wrong.
True, it would have kept Obama out of the Oval Office for at least awhile, but there is no doubt in my mind that McCain would have continued the RINOs' inexorable move to the left ... more slowly than Barack Obama, and thus more dangerously.
Early on, I knew that Obama was a Marxist. Everything about his past, his associations, his voting record, and his own written and spoken words all made that clear. I felt that if he could keep the public mesmerized long enough to be able to sneak into the White House through the side door, with his Marxist soul mate at his side, it would be like having Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven running the United States government!
To most libertarians and conservatives, this seemed like a result too horrific to contemplate. But guess what? Barack Obama's lightning-fast implementation of his radical agenda awoke the walking dead. Foolish independents, in particular, opened their eyes in horror and began asking, "What the hell is going on here?"
The result? The Tea Party was born. That's right, the Emperor of Envy gave birth to the Tea Party through his own words and actions. Now, instead of the frog being boiled slowly, Obama's election has brought the fight into the open. And the fight I'm referring to is the one between the roughly 50 percent of the public who work for a living and the 50 percent who vote for a living.
That, Glenn J., is your offsetting positive in Barack Obama's rise to power. Without him, we would have continued to drift slowly down the road to serfdom. Count me out. I'm tired of drifting to the left.
So when I say "there is no such thing as a negative," it's because words like negative and problem are just that -- words. It's all in how one perceives the facts in any given situation. The offsetting positive when a "problem" arises often leads us to say, sometimes many years later, "That turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to me."
By the way, I never said that Obama's election should not bother you. It should bother you. It should bother you so much that you become motivated to join the fight to save what's left of our once-great country for your children and grandchildren.
In that vein, you say that you're fighting discouragement? Save your energy. Discouragement is not the enemy. The enemy is the far left -- the progressives, the socialists, the Marxists, and the communists. Forget about discouragement, and focus on defeating the enemy.
