"When Overlooked Warriors Are Unleashed"

What did David of ancient Israel and Robert E. Lee of our Southern Confederacy have in common? Well, to begin, each was overlooked by the "manly men" of his day. Neither was expected to ever amount to much as a soldier. Both were mild-mannered, soft spoken, and unagressive by any masculine definition. But behind the visible persona of each lay a hidden warrior that only needed to be matched with it's moment. Their warrior spirit was not based on brawn, bravado, display, or bluff. These two would win with brainpower, and that even when applied against superior numbers. The best thing about these two stories for me is the attitude of "Wow, who knew?" by everyone in the nations involved.

David's story begins in 1 Samuel 16:1 . God said to the prophet Samuel, ". . . go; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I have provided for Myself a king among his sons." Jesse passed his 7 oldest sons before Samuel, but Samuel had to say that the Lord had not chosen any of them. Samuel asked if there were any other sons. Notice Jesse's attitude: Well, yeah, there is the youngest, but he's just a shepherd boy. It can't POSSIBLY be HIM! I mean, come on! Let's just have a good laugh and move on (re-creation provided by me). But David WAS the one, and little did his "manly" father and brothers know that he would be a giant killer and ancient Israel's greatest warrior-king.

Robert E. Lee's story begins in the Spring of 1861. He was the third of the four top Generals of The Armies of The Confederate States Of America. This rank was set by seniority out of West Point. But Lee was not thought of as a "manly man". He couldn't POSSIBLY be a good field leader as he was too quiet and inward. So he was assigned to patrol the Shenandoah Valley region. A series of embarrassing losses in small clashes earned him the nickname "Granny Lee". He was relocated down to Charleston, South Carolina, exchanging places with P.G. T. Beauregard who was then in place to participate at First Bull Run in July. To be fair to Lee, though, the Shenandoah Valley experienced unusually excessive rainfall in the Spring of '61. Neither side could claim any important victories there and the sheer weight of numbers of men, superior weapons, and shorter supply lines from Harper's Ferry allowed Yankee soldiers to hold their own against ANY foe.

So, General Robert E. Lee's first year of war for his new country was a dismal mediocrity. Then came the Battle of Seven Pines in late May of '62. Union General George McClellan had been slowly advancing his massive Army west toward Richmond in his Peninsular Campaign. A huge clash finally began at Seven Pines on May 30th. Confederate moves were a confused mess of disorganized effort. Then, General Joe Johnston was wounded in the foot and taken to a field hospital. General Lee had to assume command. The Unknown Warrior's moment had come.

Lee's first order to the newly renamed Army Of Northern Virginia was to dig in, an action thought to be beneath the dignity of soldiers. But from May 31st on, war would have a new style. General McClellan had 100,000 men on the south side of The Chickahominy River. Another 40,000 Yankees sought to join them from the north side. Lee had only 40,000 himself. He brought in his favorite lietenant, General Stonewall Jackson from The Shenandoah Valley. With Jackson's 17,000 men, a brilliant ballet of multiple manuever, strike, and flank began to roll back the Union forces. A series of 6 major battles over 7 days that came to be known as The Seven Days Battles ended in mass retreat back to Washington for McClellan, "The Little Napoleon". The Battles of Oak Grove (June 25th), Gaines' Mill (June 27th), Garnett's Farm (June 28th), Savage Station (June 29th), White Oak Swamp (June 30th), and Malvern Hill (July 1st -- a Confederate defeat but then abandoned by Federals) are still studied in war colleges today. Everyone was stunned and no one doubted that a new military legend had entered the history books.

Overlooked, yet giant killers. How many more times will we need to see this?

"The Single Bullet Theory"

The Confederacy might have won it's war for independence early on had it not been for the bullet that struck General Albert Sidney Johnston in the afternoon of the first day of the Battle of Shiloh. He was the highest ranked of the four top generals of the new nation. Rank and theater of operation were awarded by seniority and that determined by date of commission out of West Point. Johnston was well liked by his troops and their motivation and moral couldn't be higher on the eve of battle.

Major General Ullysses S. Grant had been landing troops and supplies at Pittsburg Landing for several days as the North's Tennessee Valley Campaign aimed to take Corinth, Mississippi, the big railroad junction farther south. But Grant's security had been lax. Incredibly, sporadic reports of possible enemy activity in the woods all around the area either never reached higher officers or were ignored. No major resistance was expected. So when the Confederates burst out of the woods that clear Sunday morning April 6, 1862, Grant's future as an Army commander might have been ended.

The Confederate onslaught caught the Yankees by surprise and rolled their whole chaotic lines back toward the Tennessee River. General Johnston was bold enough and would have finished his attack by carrying it on through the night. But a stray bullet struck him in the knee at around 1:30pm and he bled to death within an hour. The general who assumed command merely held ground which allowed General Grant to regroup, reinforce, and counterattack the next day. Thus, Shiloh is generally seen as a victory for the North and bolstered Grant's reputation as a winner. Brigadier General Sherman, latter to become Grant's right hand man, was nearly killed in this battle, too, as Confederate troops surprised and fired on his horseback scouting party.

Generals Grant and Sherman might have been captured or at least disgraced enough to have prevented their later appointments had General Johnston lived. But the same bullet that killed General Johnston saved General Grant. Grant learned from his errors. He would never again be so careless.

BECK:

I reiterate that I think people are coalescing around Glenn as the defacto leader of a new "People Power" passive peaceful resistance to this communist takeover of our government. But I just have a precautionary suggestion -- that Glenn should begin to address military officers DIRECTLY on both radio and TV. They need to begin to face the possiblity that they may be faced with the hard decision in the near future as to who (or which side?) they will obey. Such was the setting in 1861 as high ranking officers in the U.S. military (e.g. Robert E. Lee) were forced to choose loyalties. If another Civil War comes, the side without any military losses!

DOYLE: (Dwight Schultz hosted)

Dwight pointed out the more obscure of President Eisenhower's two warnings in his farewell speech. Beware the Scientific Elite. See if you can find that speech in it's entirety. This warning is eerily being fullfilled today with the "global warming" scare, "global pandemics" scares, and the over medicated modern culture.

He talked about Al Gore's stupid movie. CO2 is NOT a major greenhouse gas. It is what plants breathe. More CO2 results in more plants! I think the original idea of a "runaway greenhouse" for Earth comes from the discovery in the 60s that the planet Venus has a very thick atmosphere of CO2 and has a 750 degrees Fahrenheit surface temperature. It was only an assumption then that the heat was held in by the CO2. This was DISPROVED later by Mariner 10 readings taken in 1982. That mission measured that the vast bulk of heat trapping was actually due to the sulphuric acid and hydrogen sulfide in high cloud layers. But, this discovery was too late to disuade the socialist wackos who had committed themselves to what they realized would be a readily believable scare by the gullible public. Just think for a second. Your backyard greenhouse is NOT hot because there is any more CO2 inside it than outside. It is hot because the glass or plastic traps heat. Your car works the same way.

In the 3rd hour, Dwight said that Sarah Palin may be the future of the Republican Party. He said that she represents the preservation of this country. Sorry, but I can't agree. I love her strength and solid conservatism. And she did the right thing for her people by resigning in the face of massive legal attacks. I haven't heard any other pundits suggest that it was right BECAUSE Alaska may have NO suitable protection from such FRIVOLOUS lawsuits and that unscrupoulus liberals siezed on that. I think her next step should be to run for the House in Washington, but nothing higher. She would be part of the 2010 sweep that returns The House to Conservatism and fiscal sanity.

BECK:

In hour 1, segment a, Glenn said that he keeps feeling 'look for the patterns'. Marxists refer to the 'Democratic Process' by which they mean that since we voted them in, they are made legitimate. They thus have authority to do what they want. And, to them, it doesn't matter if they got us to vote for them by deception and lies. So, . . . I say this is reminescent of Satan in The Garden. He deceived Adam to "vote" him in and, thus, give over rulership of the Planet. Hitler was also voted in the same way. Neither gave up those offices voluntarily. Will this 'pattern' replay?

In hour 2, segment a, Van Jones referred to ". . .our sister and brother species." He said, "We are going to change everything!" He said, "Native Americans . . . Give them the wealth!" He has said, "By August (1992) I was a communist." It's not a question of 'vetting' this man. I say . . . Obama KNEW all about Jones and WANTED him in his Czar office. So . . . where is our IMPEACHMENT?

BECK:

In hr. 1, Glenn said, "Is it possible that we have a Marxist Revolution going on?" I say, . . . Duh! Isn't it OBVIOUS?

At end of hr. 3, Terry Schiavo's dad just died and Glenn said that Terry Schiavo and her dad are embracing and talking in Heaven right now. No they are not! See the article on my companion Blog, Is There Really a HellFire? by Ron Dart. In it is the Biblical doctrine of soul sleep.

DOYLE: (Dwight Schultz hosted)

In hr. 2, Dwight said that Strobe Talbot said in 1992 that the USA would cease to exist by 50 years. He said it at The World Federalist Society. I say, . . . it is amazing how persistent the leftists are in their march toward evil and oblivion! We christians and conservatives don't have time for politics but just want to live our busy lives in peace.

BECK:

In hr.1, Glenn mentioned a new book, The Coming Insurrection, which was released August 15th and is a communist manifesto on HOW to destroy the USA.

In hr. 2, Glenn said, "I have nothing to fear." I think he is the bad guys' number one target now, and they are not above 'clearing the playing field' of any opposition. Glenn has hired bodyguards, but how many of them will be enough? He is the bravest man in America right now.

RUSH:

In hr. 2, Rush pointed out a common theme of socialists -- that they say we need to eliminate the middle men, the greedy ones, so that the common people can deal directly with government. So, Obamas' plan really IS socialism even though he says it isn't.

In hr. 3, Rush talks about what Health Insurance REALLY is. Also, a woman caller read three quotes from Rules For Radicals. WOW on both of these! We better get these people out NOW!

BECK:

in hr. 2, Glenn said that Republicans aren't any better than Democrats and cited Orrin Hatch as an example. He must see the distinction between the two halves of The Republican Party. There is the liberal group, which he is really thinking of here, and the truly conservative group which he should NOT lump in with the others. As I have said in a previous article, it is time for the christian/conservative wing of The Republican Party to separate.

In hr. 3, Glenn seems to be saying that all we need to do is ask questions of Obama. Keep asking, "Did you know Mr. President . . .?" But we can only go so far with questions. Then what? We can only go so far with tea parties and marches on Washington. Then what? We saw two polar opposite examples this summer of how to handle a dictatorship. Iranians rioted and demonstrated in the streets of many cities in Iran after the rigged elections of June 12th. It all died down eventually and the same leaders are still in power. Honduras handled a dictatorial power grab correctly. Their legislature impeached their president and their Top Court upheld the legislature's decision. The Army was only called in to remove the LEFTIST would-be dictator when he wouldn't leave. It was NOT a "coup". My point is that FORCE will always be necessary to remove an evil leader. Will WE learn? Are we too chicken to do what is necessary?

RUSH:

In hr. 3, Liberals always talk of 'Health Care' in terms of 'limited resources'. Why should the field have 'limited resources'? If they are 'limited' then increase them. Don't just try to ration what exists. Leftist thinking is myopic. Allow conditions for growth. More schools, students, resource funds, and competition would make the whole idea of 'limited resources' ridiculous.

DOYLE:

In hr. 3, Guest Wayne Allyn Root says that at the next election we should vote them ALL out. Bad idea. We need to make a list of all libs, socialists, and communists to vote out and make sure all the pundit shows coordinate with it. There is nothing wrong with making a LIST! I am in favor of a complete turnover at each election, but only if we have a built in system of term limits as I have laid out in a previous article below.

BECK:

hr. 2 -- Glenn said in segment A, "You (we) must not give them any more power. Once we do, there's no turning back. The way we make them freeze is with FACTS." He believes that SUNLIGHT is enough. Sounds good, BUT . . . I say, Yes this is of course necessary, but these people are horribly evil. They are carrying out Satan's agenda for this planet. They APPEAR nice on the outside, but Glenn is exposing their REAL natures. Adam turned over the right to govern this world to Satan, and that is WHY we have seen so many evil leaders down through history. Unless you see this, pundits, you know NOTHING. You are merely reporting the events as everything collapses around us. Light may expose, but light in itself has no force. Once you illuminate your work area, THEN YOU PICK UP YOUR SCREWDRIVER, HAMMER, OR OTHER TOOL(S) TO GO TO WORK UNDER THE LIGHT!

RUSH:

BECK:

hr. 2 -- Glenn is doing a long series on the czars in this administration. He mentioned one czar who had been with a group called Missouri Jobs For Justice. So, I say . . . this must be another of those socialist terms such as 'social justice' and 'economic justice'.

Glenn said in segment A that the reason we are not living around fires is BECAUSE of this American Experiment. I assume he means we are far advanced technologically, but that all began long before America was formed. It's a little much to say that ALL we (i..e The World) have is due to our political setup. But he really is trying to point out the concept of "American Exceptionalism" as Rush Limbaugh so does. So, I say . . . American exceptionalism is true, and as such, is the most perfect proof that we, the white people of northern Europe, the British Isles, and The United States are the direct genetic descendents of the Israelites. How? Think. Since God created Israel as a peculiar people called by His Name and meant for World leadership, it stands to reason that wherever they went and are, they would and do rise to the top of any nation's society. This happened in ancient Persia. Jews and Israelites who had been brought in as slaves, rose after a couple of hundred years to be the upper classes and even the new royalty by the time of Christ. We see it today in similar ways. The whole world imitates us, wearing our clothes, playing our songs, and using "White" as the standard of beauty. A white blonde girl was Miss Namibia in 1986. How often have we seen beauty pageants where the girls competing from other non-white countries are half-white themselves? Alas! If we only knew who we are, our perspective on EVERYTHING would change and we would no longer cower before leftist accusations of "racism" or "America is evil". We would no longer play nice to ridiculous dictators hoping that they won't bite us. But, as I've said before, our preachers are clueless on the deepest issues. The entirety of our current crises is laid squarely at their feet. If only they could read their Bibles!

RUSH:

A lady caller in hour 2 segment B suggested that the populace is about to explode like a wife who cracks and shoots her husband because of his control. So, I say . . . NO! She had it backwards. The leftists are controlling us the way a wife tries to do a "makeover" on her husband! It is the husband (us conservatives) who may react by rising up, saying "Enough!" and putting her back in her place. As a caller said on Rush's show in September 1995, "Liberals think like women." I have always remembered that, though the distinction should actually be gender (masculine vs. feminine) rather than biological sex.

DOYLE:

hr. 1 -- Eric Holder has called us a nation of cowards. Jerry said that it is this administration that are the cowards and went on to elaborate how. This illustrates something that has long been known about the liberal mind. Liberals accuse Conservatives of the very things they themselves are doing. It is the ultimate definition of hypocrisy. I first heard this from Rep. Richard Armey in 1993. But hold on. I am working on a long article that will finally explain WHY the natural dichotomy exists between the left and The Right and WHY they think differently. It is the long-sought-for Holy Grail of politics that Rush, Hannity, and others have never figured out.
