Aldous Huxley (1894 -1963), the author of the highly popular book Brave New World, was very critical of the future that the leaders in our country are bringing us into. At a time when social change was evident, there was still no way for him to realize how real his vision would be. Huxley wrote his famous novel in 1933, but in 1962 he gave a speech at Berkely called the "Ultimate Revolution." This speech is interesting because of the fact that nearly 45 years later we are finally realizing this vision of the future, a future that is certainly veiled in a new revolution, an Ultimate Revolution.

It's extremely important to me that people reading this, and people who know me, understand that bickering about the political garbage that is constantly spewed at us all day everday is only allowing a futher whitewash of our freedoms and our rights. Politicians throwing words around means nothing in comparison to truly being free. Rather than worrying about whether you are on the Red or Blue team, let's all take a second to look at the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain. There are people, organizations, and forces in this world that benefit from those who believe they are free when they are not, who believe they know the truth when they do not.

Make an effort to be a vigilant american. Tomorrow is the day that we celebrate the birth of our nation. It is probably my favorite day of the year (certainly my favorite holiday.) Politics is not a game and it's not a hobby, it's a trick. It has become a venue for those in power to take advantage and mislead those who are not. America has been scared into submission. I don't have any fear of cave dwellers and camel hearders. I have lived in America my entire life, and the only thing I'm scared of is loosing my freedom.
