Open thread for Sunday, November 2nd: Invincible
Here is the open thread for Sunday, November 2nd. Please feel free to post links to interesting articles and to discuss whatever issues arise during the course of the day. Nothing is off-topic here.
Another week and another 12 issues discussed, did you miss any? If so there is an easy way to make sure you do not miss another post. I understand that all of you are busy and cannot always find the time to check the blog for updates so why not subscribe to America’s Watchtower and receive email updates whenever I write a new post? That is the easiest way to follow the blog to ensure you never miss another post.
In addition to subscribing you can also follow America’s Watchtower on Facebook and Twitter by clicking the links on the right. But you will get more than that for I often post links to articles I probably will not be writing about so it is a great way to keep up with what is happening.
The Twitter widget in the sidebar is fully interactive. This widget updates my tweets in real time and allows you to respond to or retweet my tweets right from the blog. It also allows you to tweet me right from America’s Watchtower. How cool is that! If you do not have a Twitter account what better reason do you need to sign up for one!?
The election is only a couple of days away so today I give you a battle-cry. This is Muse performing ‘Invincible’. It starts off slow with a military-style drumbeat and builds as the song continues. Listen to the lyrics below and remember together we’re invincible! (Also, check out the guitar solo which begins around 4:40)
Don’t be afraid
What your mind conceives
You should make a stand
Stand up for what you believe
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we’re invincible
During the struggle
They will pull us down
But please, please
Let’s use this chance
To turn things around
And tonight
We can truly say
Together we’re invincible
America's Watchtower 
Hello Steve, my Contribution for This Week…Starting to look for the Winter Coats, snowing here and there, it’s not a snow that will stay ..except the cold..
I did prepare something but like it was for the Residents, did feel like people did flee.
I don’t want that. I’m not here only for the music. Obama and its Administration concern me..concern All ! And so, Hopefullly people will go to vote in masses …
God Speed !

Thanks for sharing, I knew a little bit about Brian Eno but not much. Might have to go back and take another listen.
It is getting cold here as well, in the 30’s and raining. Hopefully it doesn’t turn to snow.
Hopefully we are going to make a stand and cripple Obama’s ability to do any more damage.

Instead of thinking about useful things that could help my family and my business, I seem to waste a lot of time thinking about the human condition. Maybe it was the PBS special on early man, maybe it is the guy in Pennsylvania, maybe the radicalized Americans going to help ISIS, or maybe it was just the POS guy on a bike that wanted to fight me because I had the nerve to want to make a right turn at a red light (legal here) but I think adolescent males are genetically engineered anarchists. Look at any other mammal group and the adolescent male leaves his family and the group to go cause trouble elsewhere.
Maybe I am late coming to this realization. I didn’t have this luxury as a teen, so maybe everyone else knew this. But either way, without a countervailing force, we are in deep do-do.

Wow Zip, if that ain’t a punch to the jaw, what is? It would be nice if we could dismiss that a hyperbole, but I think it is the truth. They did a survey at Harvard, and asked which country is the most dangerous, and guess what their answer was? US of course, just as they were told. On Jimmy Kimmel a group was asked if GMO was bad and of course they said yes. Then they were asked what GMO stands for and they had no idea. They say what “the tube” (big brother) tells them to.

Glad you liked it Bruce. Even though it’s ‘flipped’ as to why US is the most dangerous, the truth might be found in ‘who’s behind many false flags, wars, arming rebels, drugs, Bio-Chem warfare (and using it as a means of depopulation), etc’ and we find it’s those in our gov.! The undisclosed BIG LIE. Those in leadership positions having these things done who cover up themselves and their lustful greed, while destroying the lives of many. And it’s easier to say, “I’m just following orders” than to take personal responsibility and not follow the sickies rules! Fueling the debase nature.
Some movies and books do depict the reality pretty well, but those aren’t aired for long or advertised. Just like ‘Traveler’; the head of DHS was behind the false flag and killings – big profit in the stock market. Only 9 episodes were made and the 9th one isn’t available. The series shows how normal people can be setup and used without their knowing to be the patsies and blamed for something the gov. agency planned. Those are the ones usurping the Gov. – it’s individuals not our Constitutional Gov.

This video nailed it Zip! This is nothing more than the Roman circuses designed to distract the people from what is going on. But it is worse than that because it is also being used to manipulate the people.

Yes some revealing points and how ‘unaware’ we are of how we’ve been induced to think certain ways, because it’s been so subtle – or we just grew up in it. We’re reminded when we look at school test from the 1800s http://www.scribd.com/doc/92544847/Sixth-Grade-Final-Exam-from-about-1890-Can-you-pass-it
Yes Bunker reminded me of that movie too.

I found (and was pleasantly surprised) an article on central banking, on fox’s website. A rarity.. Isn’t making the claims about what central banking is doing to us in whole, but a good read none the less…

I know this is a downer, but I need to say it. If the Republicans win tomorrow, they will start loosing on Wednesday. Just like football teams, some are good on offence, some defense, and a very rare few are good at both. The Republicans have been playing mediocre defense for 6 years, where all you have to do is see what the offence is doing and try and stop it.
Offence, on the other hand, requires a plan, a set of plays to execute the plan, and just keep fighting to move forward, even if it is just a little each time. Sometimes you can just hold your ground and fight not to go backwards. But I have a bad feeling the Republicans will be sacked behind the line of scrimmage often and will throw for a loss.

I agree with you Bruce. If the Republicans win tomorrow it will no longer be enough for them to simply oppose Obama, there are going to have to come up with an agenda and convince the American people to vote for them in 2016 or the victory will be short-lived.
