Well, I have pondered the statement made at the DNC about all of us belonging to the government. No matter how perversely I try to spin it, there just ain't no way. This is perhaps the clearest comment to date about the direction the Democrats want to take us. We are all to be good little unthinking drones in the great government machine. We will perform our assigned jobs without comment. We will eat what they give us and be thankful for the government benevolence. We will wear what they give us and rejoice that they have consented to clothe us. We will give up our personal transportation and use public transportation even when it is non-existant. We will bow and scrape whenever the power elites are in our presence. We will forsake our Christian heritage and pray to the great God(s) in Washington.
NO THANKS! I would rather die than submit to this abomination called democracy. I was born into a Constitutional republic. I want no dealings with a democracy (mob rule) or a dictatorship.
I belong to my Lord and savior, Jesus Christ. If this offends you, get used to it. I am not going to change at this stage of the game. As for the government, they belong to ME and the millions like me. I subscribe to the original structure given to us in 1785. GOD is supreme. The sovereign people are next in the heirarchy. The Sovereign States are next and the federal government is at the bottom of the barrel. The federal government and its minions and bureaucrats and politicians are totally "owned" by the people. We, in the form of the founders, created the federal government. It did not create us. We gave it it's limited powers and reserved the remaining rights and priviledges to ourselves and our States. The limited powers were explicitly defined in the Constitution. The words contained in that great document mean the same today that they did in 1785. Creative interpretation of those words is anathema to patriots. Plucking powers from thin air under the guise of being Constitutional is what got us in this mess. It is time to pressure our representatives and senators to pass legislation to curtail the executive powers. No more Executive Orders. If the president needs additional power and authority to perform his or her job, let them go to congress and get the laws changed. Any major change in the balance of power must be by way of Constitutional Amendment. Otherwise, the Sovereign States must nullify and interpose, rendering the act null and void.
We have been slowly turned into a nation of sheep. We are dominated by a federal 800 pound gorilla. It does as it damn well pleases. The people are a minor annoyance. Oh we are courted at election times but do we really elect who we want. No. We pick from a very short list of "approved" candidates. What is the difference between our current system and the old Soviet Union? Very little. At least the Soviets were up front about their usurpation of liberty. Here it is slowly eroded by sneaky, slippery bureaucrats. The end result is the same. We all end up "working for da man!"
This election, I will cast my vote for a thrid party write-in. Please don't castigate me for "helping OBAMA." I don't buy in to the "lesser of two evils" rhetoric. I doubt my vote will have an impact, but at least I will sleep knowing I stood for something other than "more of the same." And contrary to what everyone will tell you. a third party candidate can win in a three-way race. All it takes is for enough real partiots to proclaim "ENOUGH! WE WILL NOT BE DUMPED ON ANY LONGER BY THE WASHINGTON POLITICAL MACHINE!" This election has already been decided in some back room. The game is the same, only the players may change. Thankfully, I am old enough I may be spared the sight of our country being trampled in the dirt and garbage of world history. I pity people who are raising children. Their world will not be pretty or happy.
