From outsourcing bureaucracies, to firing museum directors, the Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area project, based out of Lawrence , Kansas has had its share of controversy.

Perhaps the most telling piece of evidence yet, that Freedom's Frontier is not about preserving history, but securing $10,000,000 for a "heritage grant" that would threaten not only Missouri (and now seemingly Kansas history as well) but the property rights in both states.

It looks like I was right on track when my article, "Lawrence, KS Economic Woes Real Motive Behind Freedom's Frontier? " was published on Jan. 27, 2008 on the Op Ed News website.

A Letter to the Editor published in the Topeka Capital-Journal published on May 4 , 2008, confirms what I and many others have been saying for quite some time.

While the backers of Freedom's Frontier in Lawrence have been portraying that it is an effort to "preserve" history, the author of the letter,PAUL M. BAHNMAIER of LeCompton, Ks writes...

"I was shocked when I read in The Capital-Journal that a member of the Kansas Legislature, a Mission Hills senator, proposed selling the state historic sites.

From the "No Mo Reparations" blog...

Rep. Jim Guest's Anti-Real ID legislation cleared the Missouri Senate Committee On Judiciary And Civil And Criminal Jurisprudence two days ago {May 5th}.

No doubt all of the calls that were placed to the Senate Committee paid off, I have been informed that over 7000 calls were placed in support of Rep. Guest paid off.

The bill now goes to the rest of the Missouri Senate for a vote.

Once again we will need everyone to call their state senators to show that we support Representative Guest's  Anti-Real ID legislation.

New Missouri bill thumbs its nose at federal Real ID Act
By Lee Logan
POST-DISPATCH JEFFERSON CITY BUREAU
01/18/2008

JEFFERSON CITY — Missouri would defy federal drivers licensing
requirements in the name of privacy under a bill filed by a crusading
legislator Thursday.

Sponsored by Rep. Jim Guest, the bill would prohibit Missouri from
complying with the Real ID Act of 2005.

Responding to security concerns after Sept. 11, Congress passed the
program, which sets common licensing rules that essentially make it harder
to falsely obtain a drivers license.

Since then, Guest, a Republican from King City in northwest Missouri, has
been rounding up other states to oppose the law based on privacy concerns.

"We have a federal government that is out of control," Guest said.

The Legislature overwhelmingly passed a resolution asking the federal
government to repeal the program last year; Guest's bill would go a step
further by prohibiting the state from participating in the program
entirely.

Guest said he has no problem with a common set of standards for drivers
licenses, but he's worried about the provisions that require
"machine-readable" technology in the cards, which could leave personal
information in the wrong hands.

"It will make ID theft very easy in the future," he said.

Because Real ID would be required for so many common tasks, Guest said it
amounts to a national identification card.

"Almost everybody would be affected by it," he said. "It is the first step
to Big Brother watching you."

Nationally, the movement against Real ID has sparked wide-ranging fears
that the next step might be microchipping citizens, or that the cards have
a connection to the biblical prophesy of the "mark of the beast."

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security says the program provides a
much-needed security boost, and that the department has worked with states
on implementation.

"There's been a public outcry for more secure identification," department
spokesman Russ Knocke said.

If a state decides not to comply, its citizens would be unable to use
their drivers license to fly on airplanes and would need additional
documentation, such as a passport.

The rules are set to take effect in May, though states have until December
2009 to fully implement the program.

The Missouri Department of Revenue would have to implement the licensing
rules, which were released to states last week.

Spokesman David Griffith said the department is still reviewing the rules
to determine the impact on Missouri. One of the key questions, he said, is
calculating the program's cost for the state.

The Homeland Security department has estimated that the program will cost
at least $3.9 billion nationwide.

More than 20 states have passed legislation or resolutions opposing the
program, including several that have passed laws saying they will not
participate — essentially calling the feds' bluff.

Despite the outcry, a few state legislators think Real ID isn't such a big
deal.

Rep. Clint Zweifel, D-Florissant, was one of three lonely legislators to
vote against the resolution last year.

"I just don't like the idea of thumbing your nose at a pretty modest
security recommendation," he said, noting that the program was suggested
by the bipartisan Sept. 11 commission.

Too many Southerner's these days have the attitude of an Ostrich. Rather than take a stand and defend their heritage, they would rather bury their head in the sand than hold an elected official responsible for their actions.

Too many Southerner's feel it is more important to support their political party than their heritage and are more than willing to let their heritage die by the wayside because they feel that social issues or taxes, or foreign policy is more important. Their battle cry is , "Leave politics out of it!".

But we know that to any Southern man or woman who cares about their heritage, this is impossible. For those who might happen to echo the pacification theory of "Leave politics out of it", ask yourself this; Who has attacked our heritage and has taken down our flags? Was it not politicians ? Who refused to restore our flags? Was it not politicians?

Below is a letter that I have submitted to the editor of Confederate Veteran magazine which addresses this very subject:

From the No Mo Reparations Blog:

Thug Life: Sharpton Vows to Shutdown New York

From The Drudge Report:

"NEW YORK (AP) - Hundreds of angry people marched through Harlem on Saturday after the Rev. Al Sharpton promised to "close this city down" to protest the acquittals of three police detectives in the 50-shot barrage that killed a groom on his wedding day and wounded two friends.
"We strategically know how to stop the city so people stand still and realize that you do not have the right to shoot down unarmed, innocent civilians," Sharpton told an overflow crowd of several hundred people at his National Action Network office in the historically black Manhattan neighborhood. "This city is going to deal with the blood of Sean Bell."
Sharpton was joined by the family of 23-year-old Sean Bell - a black man - and a friend of Bell who was wounded in the 2006 shooting outside a Queens strip club. Two of the three officers charged were also black.
The rally at Sharpton's office was followed by a 20-block march down Malcolm X Boulevard and then across 125th Street, Harlem's main business thoroughfare, where some bystanders yelled out "Kill the police!"

As I recall watching the news the other day a judge aquitted all three officers in the shooting but that doesn't matter to Shartpon. Nope he's now leading a crowd up Malcom X (another so called civil rights leader) Blvd, that is yelling kill the police!

In the previously cited article Sharpton is quotes as saying:

"They never accused Sean Bell of doing anything. Then why is he dead?" Sharpton asked, his voice roaring with anger. Authorities "have shown now that they will not hold police accountable. Well, guess what? If you won't, we will!"

Excellent point Al! Accountability, now that is a real concept. Say , Al, while we're on the subject, when are you ever going to be held accountable for Freddy's Fashion Mart?

What you've never heard of Freddy's Fashion Mart? Well let me tell you something baby, in 1995 Al Shartpon payed Freddy's Fashion Mart a visit and he was open for business! According to Wikipedia.Org...

"In 1995, a black Pentecostal Church, the United House of Prayer, which owned a retail property on 125th Street, asked Fred Harari, a Jewish tenant who operated Freddie's Fashion Mart, to evict his longtime subtenant, a black-owned record store called The Record Shack. Sharpton led a protest in Harlem against the planned eviction of The Record Shack.[41][42][43] Sharpton told the protesters, "We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business."[44] On 1995-12-08, Roland J. Smith Jr., one of the protesters, entered the store with a gun and flammable liquid, shot several customers and set the store on fire. The gunman fatally shot himself, and seven store employees died of smoke inhalation.[45][46] Fire Department officials discovered that the store's sprinkler had been shut down, in violation of the local fire code.[47] Sharpton claimed that the perpetrator was an open critic of himself and his nonviolent tactics. Sharpton later expressed regret for making the racial remark, "white interloper," and denied responsibility for inflaming or provoking the violence.[12][48]"

Yes sir, denying responsibility, that's some accountability all right. The same Wikipedia article citied above also contains information about the Crown Heights riot, that happened in 1991...

"The Crown Heights Riot began on August 19, 1991, after a car driven by a Jewish man, and part of a procession led by an unmarked police car, went through an intersection and was struck by another vehicle causing it to veer onto the sidewalk where it accidentally struck and killed a seven-year-old Guyanese boy named Gavin Cato and severely injured his cousin Angela. Witnesses could not agree upon the speed and could not agree whether the light was yellow or red. One of the factors that sparked the riot was the arrival of a private ambulance which, on the orders of a police officer worried for the Jewish driver's safety, removed the uninjured driver from the scene while Cato lay pinned under his car.[34] Cato and his cousin were treated soon after by a city ambulance. Caribbean-American and African-American residents of the neighborhood rioted for four consecutive days fueled by rumors that the private ambulance had refused to treat Cato.[34][35] During the riot blacks looted stores,[34] beat Jews in the street,[34] and clashed with groups of Jews, hurling rocks and bottles at one another [36] after Yankel Rosenbaum, a visiting student from Australia, was stabbed and killed by a member of a mob shouting "Kill the Jew."[37] Sharpton, who arranged a rally in Crown Heights after Cato's death,[34] has been seen by some commentators as inflaming tensions by making remarks that included "If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house"[38] and referring to Jews as "diamond merchants."[39] Sharpton marched through Crown Heights and in front of "770", shortly after the riot, with about 400 protesters (who chanted "Whose streets? Our streets!" and "No justice, no peace!"), in spite of Mayor David Dinkins' attempts to keep the march from happening.[40]"

Again, where's the accountability Al? I bet you can't guess who is good friends with Reverand Sharpton....

That's wright, oops I mean, that's right Barack Obama, the candidate for "Change", who appears to have developed a pattern of befriending racist, anti-semetic ministers. Now that's Wright below.

Once again, I turned to Wikipedia and struck gold...

"In March 2008, a controversy broke out concerning Barack Obama's long-term relationship with Wright, his former pastor and religious mentor.[27][28] ABC News found several racially and politically charged sermons by Wright, including his suggestion that past U.S. policies were partially responsibile for the September 11 attacks, his statement, "God bless America... No!... God Damn America...for killing innocent people...for treating her citizens as less than human," and his assertion that "the government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color."[29][30] Some of Wright's statements were widely interpreted as being deeply offensive...

Wright has been quoted as saying: "When [Obama’s] enemies find out that in 1984 I went to Tripoli [to visit Muammar al-Gaddafi] with [Louis] Farrakhan, a lot of his Jewish support will dry up quicker than a snowball in hell."[

Wright, also married Barack and his wife Michelle, as well as, baptized their children. It is interesting that Wright mentioned Louis Farrakhan. Farrakhan is another Black Supremacist "reverand" who is associated with Barack Obamba.

Again, quoting Wikipedia:

"Louis Farrakhan (born Louis Eugene Walcott, May 11, 1933), is the acting head of the Nation of Islam (NOI) as the National Representative of Elijah Muhammad. He is also well-known as an advocate for African American interests and a critic of American society. Farrakhan currently resides in Kenwood, an affluent neighborhood on the south side of Chicago, and part time at a Nation of Islam farm in New Buffalo, Michigan.

Farrakhan has been the center of much controversy, and critics contend that some of his views and comments have been racist, homophobic, and antisemitic"

According to the Nation of Islam website:

"The Nation of Islam under the leadership of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan is the catalyst for the growth and development of Islam in America"

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Farrakhan endorsed Barack Obama for President. Barack Obama has based his candidacy on "Change". Based on who he chooses to associate with, I'd say "Change" is coming all right. 

Mr. Obama; is this the type of "Change" we can expect from you?

Oh never mind!

The program for the Seventh Annual Col. John T. Coffee Camp, Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV), Confederate Heritage Dinner in Osceola, Missouri, was held on the evening of Saturday April 5th. The largest crowd to ever hear author Donald Gilmore turned out for the annual event. Gilmore, a senior editor at the Ft. Leavenworth Combat Studies Institute, delivered a spirited forty-five minute talk which culminated in a standing ovation by an appreciative crowd. The speech was based on his new book, “The Civil War on the Missouri/Kansas Border."

The dinner and talk are part of the Col. John T. Coffee Camp’s ongoing education program.

In his talk Gilmore asserted that the war on the Missouri/Kansas border was the beginning of the War Between the States, which then spread eastward to the rest of the South. He talked about the premeditated nature of the War which was encouraged by economic interests in the Northeast who wanted to destabilize Missouri.

Speaking directly about the burning of Osceola in 1861, he showed it was an extension of what had been happening for over half a decade. He also talked about the bravery of those Missourians who resisted the Northern invasion and suffered terrible depredations during and after the War.

Another highlight of this year’s dinner was the drawing organized by Friends of the Coffee Camp, the proceeds going to monument projects. Jared Lawler of Clinton, Missouri, donated a .36 caliber Kentucky Long Rife, and it was won by Jason Coffman of Holt, Missouri. An original framed oil painting entitled “Gen. Sterling Price’s Sac River Camp," by artist Carol Kampe of Clinton, Missouri, was won by Cindy Vickers, also of Clinton.

The master of ceremonies was Coffee Camp Commander Gary Ayres, and Press Officer David S. Reif introduced Mr. Gilmore.

The dinner attracted participants from three states with a number of notables attending. Among them were Greene County Archivist Mr. Robert Newmann, Ron Paul delegates Mr. and Mrs. James Bradley of Trimble, Ron Paul delegate Mr. Scott Easter of Savannah, and former Lake Ozark alderman, Paul Garrison, accompanied by his family.

Benediction and prayers were led by Pastor Robert Phillips of Dunnegan.

The annual dinner is a public event attracting large numbers of non-SCV members.

I was happy that I was able to attend yet another Coffee Camp Annual Heritage Dinner. What a great speaker, historian and author Mr. Gilmore is!

While I do my best to keep you the reader apprised of what is going on in Kansas and fighting the liberals in Lawrence, I would like to take the time to remind everyone, that despite everything that is going on right now in regards to the Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area, we do have friends on "the other side of the line".

I had the pleasure of being seated next to the boys from the South Kansas Camp #2064 Sons of Confederate Veterans , based out of Wichita.

It was a pleasure meeting all of you gentlemen.

Thanks for the picture and a few words from myself here; it should come as no surprise to those who know their Southern History, that another Pope once thought the Cause of the Confederacy deserved honor.

From Wikipedia.Org

"During Confederate President Jefferson Davis’ imprisonment following the defeat of the Confederacy, Pope Pius IX sent a picture of himself to Davis with the hand-written inscription: “Come unto me, all ye who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”^[8] Along with this picture, the pope sent a miniature crown of thorns which he had woven with his own hands.^[9] Such a gift, said a great niece, was “never before conferred on any but crowned heads.” Robert E. Lee, pointing to his own portrait of Pius IX whistling Dixie, told a visitor that he was “the only sovereign…in Europe who recognized our poor Confederacy"

An anonymous source has contacted the Missouri Bushwhacker Blog with news that it appears the Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area has stalled.

The anonymous source also stated that people in Kansas have lost interest and that Kansas Senator Sam Brownback is fuming mad about it.

One can only speculate that the REAL reason Senator Brownback is fuming is because he represents a state with very few employment opportunities and now another one just left his state.

Part of the new Boeing Tanker plane was to be built in Wichita, and the real damning evidence is that Brownback helped drive the business away.

According to an article found in the March 23, 2008 issue of the Kansas City Star...

"In Washington, which lost the assembly jobs, Democratic Rep. Norm Dicks said, “I hope the voters of this state remember what John McCain has done to them and their jobs.”

"One of my “deep cover” sources from Lawrence was at a meeting recently where Sen. Brownback was present.  According to my source the Lawrence Downtown Redevelopment/ Visitor’s and Convention program/Destination Management/Freedom’s Frontier scheme was mentioned.  It was reported that Brownback was fuming about the lack of progress on the projects. My source said some of the people in attendance “…just didn’t want to talk about it” to Brownback or anyone else.  The source stated that when he asked about the Civil War thing a friend of Brownback said, “Oh that, you will have to talk to someone else about it.  I’m out of that one” rolled his eyes and said he thought the whole scheme was “…dreamed up at the Hawk’s Nest or some campus bar by out of work poli-sci students and maybe a retired professor or two”.   

My source reported that he was handed the 26 page booklet “John Brown of Kansas” (presumably as evidence that progress was being made). The elaborately printed guide to the crimes of John Brown and his gang is given out free in Kansas.  Missourians are being asked to fund a project that aggrandizes the murdering psychopath John Brown who was a puppet of New England elites dedicated to destroying Missouri.  

The booklet is a one sided view of John Brown as a pioneer on the frontier of freedom.  He is depicted as a great misunderstood man who sacrificed his life freeing African-Americans slaves from Missouri but leaving the rest of the country alone.  Brown was eventually victimized and hanged by a legal system that persecuted him for doing good.  The booklet implies Brown did not want to be saved from the gallows but instead wanted to be a martyr to the cause of freedom.

This is the real foundation of the “Freedom’s Frontier” heritage project"
