From the Desk of John Rourke – October 15th, 2015
I did not watch the debate Tuesday night however I read about it and talked to people who watched it. It really is a sad day when an admitted Socialist is having so much success and actually could become President. I wrote a post the day after the Presidential election in 2008 that I did not think another Republican would be elected President – ever. I stand by that.
I hope I am wrong.
Before I get inundated that Democrat vs. Republican – they are one in the same – I understand the perspective but respectfully disagree. I would agree our political system is broken and full of corruption. I still believe that there is a chance that we could get the right candidate elected to make a difference. The American citizenship would have to get behind this candidate and put pressure on the Senate and House. Likely? No.

Picked up some oxygen absorbers yesterday. Have to pick up some buckets and plan to Mylar pack a bunch of food this weekend.

I have wrote numerous times about the tension between Russia and the US. Fly-bys, territorial disputes, Ukraine, sanctions, “word wars” between Putin and Obama, tightening bonds between China and Russia, and now of course Russia attacking US-supported troops in Syria.
It appears Putin is drawing a “red line in the sand” and daring Obama to cross it.
No better motivation is needed for me to step up my preps. One of the reasons for my recent surge in Mylar packing food.

Prepper Press just came out with a new book – Oathkeeper. As of this writing it is available for the Kindle for free.
What is it about? Here you go…….
“Until recent times, Calumet County had never been known as a place of killing and violence…”
A peaceful valley in the mountains of Colorado becomes a battleground pitting the federal government against a rural sheriff’s department. Beleaguered Sheriff Bear Ellison finds himself outnumbered, over-matched, and increasingly isolated as he is forced to decide between risking his life protecting a local hero, or reneging on his oath and handing him over to federal prosecutors.
I just downloaded my copy. Check it out!
