Fringe, radical “progressive” leftist extremists (aka “democrats”) are fork-tongued, two-faced, back-stabbing, pathologically lying sociopaths who will lie, cheat, steal and kill to gain and maintain an unbreakable grip on unrestrained, dictatorial power in perpetuity.
The ends justify the means.
They hate America, they hate the United States Constitution, and they hate patriotic Americans.
Big government traitors, aka “progressive” politicians in both major American political parties have been infesting the U.S. federal government for roughly a century.
Over the past ten decades, they have erected a monstrous, unconstitutional federal bureaucracy which usurps the power of duly elected representatives by imposing regulations which effectively replace laws written by the House of Representatives and Senate under the power granted to them by the Constitution, and by imposing fines and fees, which replace taxes, even though the power to tax is specifically given to the House.
The alphabet agencies in Washington DC believe theirs is to rule over the elected and the electors.
They are so sure of their power that they worked with “progressive” politicians to overthrow a duly elected President of the United States and are now protecting the criminals who cheated him out of his second term while seeking to imprison him for committing the same crime committed by Al Gore and Hillary Clinton…publicly challenging the results of a presidential election.
Welcome to the United Soviet States of America.
The only way to fix this mess is to get the current White House occupant out of the Oval Office and have him replaced by a President who will reverse every one of his decidedly injurious, anti-American Executive Orders which have damaged America’s manufacturing, energy production, farming, military, foreign policy, et al.
Then the unelected, unaccountable, unconstitutional 4th branch of the federal government must be aggressively reduced, reformed and reorganized.
Congress must write and pass a bill to be signed into law by the Chief Executive clearly stating that every regulation, fee and fine seeking to be imposed upon the public by the bureaucratic state will have zero affect unless and until Congress has written those regulations, fees and fines into law.
The legislation must also make it abundantly clear that henceforth, the bureaucratic state will forever play an advisory role, with zero power to impose regulations that act like laws or fees and fines that act like taxes.
This will remove power from the hands of unelected, unaccountable, overpaid, unconstitutional federal bureaucrats and return it to the hands of representatives duly elected by WE THE PEOPLE of the United States of America.
Concurrently, the President must enact policies which will unleash the full power of the U.S. energy industry so that America leads the world in energy production. America could be selling American energy to America’s friends instead of begging enemies and adversaries to produce the energy anti-American “progressives” consciously choose to leave in the ground.
If politicians seek the support and vote of Americans in subsequent elections, insist they support legislation to repeal unnecessary government meddling in competitive markets.
Should they choose to ignore the call for a return to free market principles, make it clear you understand that too often, keeping their seat at the banquet table of corruption is more important to them than keeping their oath of office.
Vote them out.
Americans and America will be much better off after they are gone…for good.
Regressive New World Order globalists in both major political parties have been selling America out for decades. They have been lining their own pockets in preparation for the World Economic Forum/UN driven great reset; where the uber rich will live like royalty and the numerically diminished serf population will slave away to provide for the needs of “the elite.”
To precondition America’s “unwashed masses” to big, all-powerful global government control, regressive NWO globalists have spent the last century erecting an unconstitutional branch of government comprised of unelected, unaccountable, overpaid federal bureaucrats.
These bureaucrats dictate policy via regulation just as they dictate costs through fines and fees. Regulations have the effect of laws while fines and fees have the effect of taxes. That is illegal. According to United States Constitution, the powers to write laws and levy taxes are assigned to Congress.
Not only does the U.S. Constitution have no article or clause establishing a bureaucratic branch of the federal government, it does not mention a bureaucracy at all, much less grants it power to dictate the goings-on of the nation at large.
In 1800 defense spending was more than half of the federal budget. This was reduced to one third of the budget by 1900. By 2020, the level of spending for defense and homeland security had been diminished to a fraction over sixteen percent. This is not due to a lack of defense spending. It is because the unconstitutional federal bureaucracy has become a monstrosity.
A bloated, out-of-control monstrosity.
Republican Theodore Roosevelt was the first “progressive” President of the United States. After taking office in 1901, he established the mold by which the federal bureaucracy was to be built when he founded the National Parks System.
Without constitutional authority, he created a bureaucracy in Washington DC that would centrally control parks across America.
It was going to be great, and everyone was going to love it.
Creating this park system was possible only because Roosevelt assumed the authority to abuse the General Welfare Clause in the U.S. Constitution. The two other co-equal branches of the federal government, Congress and the Supreme Court, did nothing to stop it.
This pattern was adopted by subsequent “progressive” presidents during the following century, which has resulted to the erection of an illegal shadow government in Washington DC.
Some call it “the deep state.”
In 1789, the federal bureaucracy under George Washington consisted of three cabinet level departments.
Between 1933 and 1945 Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal inflated the federal bureaucracy enormously. During those twelve years, the number of unelected, unaccountable, overpaid federal bureaucrats grew from a little over half a million to more than 3.5 million.
Following the assassination of John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson used the opportunity to create Medicare, Medicaid, and the Great Society’s “war on poverty.” The Great Society included federal funding for education through the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Urban renewal via the Housing and Urban Development Act, and the creation of the National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts via the National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities Act.
Richard Nixon contributed to the expanding behemoth by creating the Environmental Protection Agency.
Jimmy Carter added more with the centrally planned, brainwashing-America’s-schoolchildren propaganda organization otherwise known as the Department of Education.
George W. Bush piled on with the Department of Homeland Security.
Barack Obama added the Affordable Care Act.
These increases in the size of centralized government were always pitched to America’s “unwashed masses” (aka taxpaying voters) as before: It is going to be great, and everyone is going to love it.
All these additional programs required the hiring of still more unelected, unaccountable, overpaid federal bureaucrats.
Now, in the twenty first century, the enormous, out of control bureaucracy has joined forces with regressive NWO globalist politicians to wage war against America and Americans.
For over a year the Department of Justice has imprisoned, without trial, Americans who entered the national Capitol building on January 6, 2021, after Capitol police opened the doors to let them in. They walked around and took selfies. They were smeared for having beaten an officer to death with a fire extinguisher, even though the autopsy showed the officer suffered strokes and died of natural causes. Twelve-year Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt was shot dead in cold blood by a Capitol police officer who has suffered no consequences for his actions.
Nobody who entered the building has been charged with possession of a firearm. But that has not stopped regressive NWO globalists from labeling the incident an “armed insurrection” and relentlessly pushing that false narrative with the aid of their obedient regressive NWO globalist lapdogs in the so-called “mainstream media.”
The Department of Homeland Security, which was ostensibly created to defend America from foreign terrorists, is being used by Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate and intimidate parents who attended school board meetings to express displeasure with their children being brainwashed into hating America. American schoolchildren have been being force-fed Critical Race Theory in government run schools (see the aforementioned Department of Education) for who knows how long.
The DHS has added the Disinformation Governance Board, which will be used by regressive NWO globalist politicians and their allies within the federal bureaucracy, the press and social media to silence Patriots who defend America.
If you love America as it was founded, you can count on being silenced and smeared by the Ministry of Truth.
So much for freedom of speech.
The Security Exhange Commission is promoting climate change rules that sidestep both Congress and voters. The proposal is so complex it runs 506 pages with 1,068 footnotes and will cost $10 billion while increasing energy prices.
So much for a free-market economy and representative government.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi has labeled former President Donald Trump “a creature” for nominating Supreme Court Justices who, in a leaked internal Supreme Court communication, the type of which had hitherto been respected as private, indicated a possible reversal of Roe vs Wade. This decision would properly interpret the Constitution, end legal abortion on a national scale, and result in returning the matter to the purview of elected state legislatures as per the 10th Amendment to the Constitution.
Never mind that America’s federal government was designed to distribute power between the legislative, executive and judicial branches. Regressive NWO globalists will do what they must to ensure the Supreme Court is cowed into submission and obedience.
The ends justify the means.
Ronald Reagan sounded the alarm in 1964 when he warned:
“We’re at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind in his long climb from the swamp to the stars, and it’s been said if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening.”
Are Americans going to be like a coal miner who ignores the canary and marches onward towards extinction?
Ridding the American body politic of regressive NWO globalists will be a long-term effort. They have been attacking the USA for a century and all the damage they have inflicted upon the country cannot be repaired overnight. For the 2022 midterm election and the 2024 presidential year election, make sure to save the patient by stopping the bleeding.
Elect every America-first candidate possible.
Don’t lose sight of the long-term goal…remember the canary.
The GOP increased their majority in the House of Representatives. The “progressive” Democrats held on to a slim Senate majority. Barack Obama still occupies the White House.
With fifty three House members demanding that Obama answer questions about the lethal, ham handed disaster in Benghazi and the equally bungled cover-up, do not expect a sudden flowering of bipartisan harmony.
Especially since the likes of Russian President Vladimir Putin have expressed happiness at Obama’s reelection. America will now find out what “more flexibility” means.
In the wake of Obama’s re-election, stocks nosedived across the board Wednesday morning, plunging over three hundred points. Worries about the pending “fiscal cliff” and fears that America will follow Europe over the precipice chilled investments. The Dow traded under 13,000. For the first time since early September the S&P 500 fell below 1,400.
Fears that Obama will introduce a carbon tax as a way to cut the U.S. budget deficit also frosted Wall Street. With the continuation of Obama’s hostile energy policies, perceptions that such a tax will have a major impact on America’s deficit are largely based on European style speculative wishful thinking.
Obama will attempt to reinstate Clinton-era tax rates on Americans who run small businesses; those described by Obama as “not paying their fair share”. Without the development of America’s domestic energy, a move that would create millions of jobs that could not possibly be shipped overseas, there is no reason to anticipate an economic boom in the United States. Without such a boom, Clinton-era tax rates will simply dampen investment, destroy small businesses and further damage the American economy.
The government’s $16 trillion debt and the looming $600 billion tax increase scheduled, along with mandatory spending cuts, otherwise known as the “fiscal cliff” further complicate the economic outlook.
Americans can fully expect that Obama’s second-term will lead to increased federal spending. As he did in his first term, Obama will expand government. Because he remains in the White House and “progressives” retain control of the Senate, obamacare will be fully implemented, yet another wet blanket on the economy, as well as a death sentence for aging Americans.
Welcome to the divided States of America.
While “progressives” celebrate a continuation of the downhill fundamental transformation of America from a Constitutional Republic into a run of the mill low growth high unemployment European style cradle to grave nanny state, half of the American population remain fully opposed to such plans.
As founded, America is the greatest nation in the history of the world. America’s founding principles and the up to then unknown personal freedoms and liberties they unleashed are being replaced by the enticement of entitlements and empty promises of a free lunch. Without America’s founding principles leading the free world, mankind stands at the precipice of a thousand years of darkness.
Those who believe in American principles must continue to stand up and push back against the anti-growth, anti-prosperity, anti-morality, anti-God, anti-American agenda of “progressives”.
In 1776 George Washington’s Continental Army lost the battle for New York City. The year 1777 saw the loss of Philadelphia. In 1779-1780, his undermanned, underfunded, and underequipped army suffered greatly and shied away from major battles. It was not until the victory at Yorktown in 1781 that victory was achieved and Britain recognized the independence of the United States.
For Americans, this is today’s Valley Forge. The outlook is bleak and victory seems beyond grasp.
The choices are to give up or continue the fight.
In December 1944 during the battle of the bulge Brigadier General McAuliffe and his battalion were besieged within the city of Bastogne. German General Heinrich Freiherr von Lüttwitz gave McAuliffe two hours to surrender the town.
What was McAuliffe’s response?
To the German Commander: NUTS!
Today, in response to the smug, holier than thou attitude of the self-imagined, self-appointed members of the institutionalized “progressive” intellectual elite, there is no better response.
Tea Party principles are based on a belief in the U.S. Constitution. Across America, a huge natural constituency exists for the bread-and-butter American issues of lower taxes, reduced government, a strong national defense, secure borders and a return to the traditional American values of: E Pluribus Unum, Liberty and in God we trust.
E Pluribus Unum means from many, one. It does not mean unquestioning acquiescence to multiculturalism and diversity. Liberty means opportunity for all, not equality of results. In God we trust means reliance upon the Creator of all things. It does not mean passive acceptance of secularism, atheism or submissive surrender to “progressive” statist mandates.
The Tea Party movement began as a peaceful protest against big government, reckless government spending, high taxes and oppressive regulations. The Tea Party’s Contract From America expressed principles held by its members. The most basic being that “Our moral, political, and economic liberties are inherent, not granted by our government.”
The principles of the Tea Party were clearly expressed in the Contract: Protect the Constitution, reject Cap & Trade, demand a balanced budget, enact fundamental tax reform, restore fiscal responsibility and Constitutionally limited government in Washington DC, end runaway government spending, defund, repeal and replace government-run health care, pass an ‘all-of-the-above’ energy policy, stop the pork, and stop the tax hikes.
The American idea, the shot heard round the world, is that We The People can govern ourselves. By the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God we are entitled, by virtue of our humanity, to the maximum amount of Individual Liberties consistent with law and order, and to the Right of private ownership, not the least of which is the Right to own and decide for ourselves. These Liberties and Rights are to be equally protected by a Constitutionally limited, representative government that derives its just powers from the consent of the governed. This is a distinctly exceptional American idea.
These are the Tea Party’s principles, which today are largely viewed as being Conservative or “right wing”. Adherence to these principles are shared by members of many political Parties, but rejected wholesale by the institutionalized “progressive” left movement, which has co-opted today’s Democratic Party.
If you are in the Tea Party, you believe in America.
If you believe in America, you belong in the Tea Party.
In an election where a decision will made between the American way of life and a nanny state “entitlement” society based on a European idea, the Tea Party Matters.
Congressman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the newly nominated GOP candidate for Vice President of the United States, is the right man in the right place, at the right time.
He understands that his duty as Vice President will be the calling of his generation to preserve for his children and their children the America that was given to his generation.
He acknowledges that the current administration came into office during an economic crisis. He also realizes that today 23 million men and women are unemployed or underemployed. He sees one in six Americans living in poverty. He understands that millions of young college graduates cannot find work and have been forced to move back in with their parents.
He sees that without a change in leadership in the White House the next four years will be just more of the same.
As a Congressman, he has been a front row witness to the wasteful Stimulus spending, the catastrophic government takeover of health care, and the robbing of seven hundred and sixteen billion dollars from Medicare to fill the financial void left in the healthcare law despite all the law’s hidden taxes.
Ryan vowed that “Medicare is a promise, and we will honor it. A Romney-Ryan administration will protect and strengthen Medicare, for my Mom’s generation, for my generation, and for my kids and yours.”
As Ryan stated midway through his nomination acceptance speech: “So our opponents can consider themselves on notice. In this election, on this issue, the usual posturing on the Left isn’t going to work. Mitt Romney and I know the difference between protecting a program, and raiding it. Ladies and gentlemen, our nation needs this debate. We want this debate. We will win this debate.”
Ryan pledged that he and Presidential nominee Mitt Romney “will get America creating wealth again. With tax fairness and regulatory reform, we’ll put government back on the side of the men and women who create jobs, and the men and women who need jobs.”
He confirmed that if elected, the GOP ticket has a goal to “generate 12 million new jobs over the next four years,” and “keep federal spending at 20 percent of GDP, or less.”
On foreign policy, Ryan stated that “a Romney-Ryan administration will speak with confidence and clarity. Wherever men and women rise up for their own freedom, they will know that the American president is on their side.”
In a rousing, crowd pleasing close, Ryan gave the following assurance:
“We will not duck the tough issues, we will lead. We will not spend four years blaming others, we will take responsibility. We will not try to replace our founding principles, we will reapply our founding principles.
The work ahead will be hard. These times demand the best of us – all of us, but we can do this. Together, we can do this. We can get this country working again. We can get this economy growing again. We can make the safety net safe again. We can do this. Whatever your political party, let’s come together for the sake of our country. Join Mitt Romney and me. Let’s give this effort everything we have. Let’s see this through all the way. Let’s get this done.”
Ryan’s speech was vintage Paul Ryan, calm, fact filled, plain spoken and direct.
Congressman Paul Ryan, the Republican nominee for Vice President offers proof that his generation is ready to be handed the torch of leadership.
Explaining his endorsement of the current White House occupant on the administration’s infrastructure spending, healthcare reform, and position on abortion, Florida’s former Republican Governor Charlie Crist endorsed him on the eve of the 2012 Republican National Convention in Tampa.
Crist has betrayed American taxpayers before. He supported the $787 billion “stimulus” boondoggle, which did little to fund shovel ready infrastructure projects but went a long way towards rewarding big “progressive” 2008 presidential campaign bundlers who “just happened” to run “green energy” companies with lucrative loan guarantees and grants. It also bailed out state and local governments guilty of practicing irresponsible fiscal policies for decades, especially where spending on government sector union contracts was concerned. It was no accident that the lion’s share of “stimulus” spending “just happened” to have gone to “blue states”. Crist’s decision to support the highly partisan, pork stuffed “stimulus” bill helped get the monstrous waste of money through Congress.
“Moderate Republican” go-along to get-along me-first career politicians who, like Crist are so willing to compromise with the institutionalized “progressive” left cannot be trusted.
Tea Party principles are America’s principles. To an intolerable degree, “Moderate Republicans” do not believe in or follow Tea Party principles. Quite often they appear to be completely devoid of principles. They game the political system to gain power and prestige for themselves and themselves alone. They will turn on Americans faster than you can say Specter.
Conservative Tea Party Americans like Allen West, Marco Rubio, Jim DeMint, Pat Toomy, Rand Paul, Ron Johnson Michele Bachmann, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee have the guts to stand against the institutionalized “progressive” left. They have the willingness, backbone and fortitude to preserve individual liberties, restore the U.S. Constitution, and a return to constitutionally limited government, a balanced budget, equal opportunity and equal protection under the law for all Americans.
Today’s Democratic Party is not your father’s Democratic Party. They keep insisting that Tea Party Republicans and their affiliates are “extreme”. Since when are protecting individual liberties, following the U.S. Constitution, having constitutionally limited government and a balanced budget extreme?
The Tea Party’s positions are extreme only when seen as standing in the way of establishing an all-powerful, centrally planned big government controlled by a self-appointed oligarchy of self-imagined “intellectual elites” i.e. a Communist state.
The institutionalized “progressive” left in 2012 America is acting exactly like every other Communist power grab in history. They lie, cheat and steal to win elections. Then they will lie, cheat, steal and kill to consolidate and strengthen their grip on unrestrained power.
The institutionalized “progressive” left complains about how “extreme” Tea Party Republicans refuse to compromise. The Tea Party knows that Communists have no interest in compromising with anyone. The institutionalized “progressive” left’s negotiating position has been, is, and will continue to be: What’s Yours is Negotiable, What’s Mine is Not. Those who hold this negotiating position, when they do finally obtain an iron grip on unrestrained power, do not compromise with their political opposition. They eliminate them…permanently.
America is at an historic crossroads. The 2012 election will determine what life in America will be like for the next and following generations.
In the words of Ronald W. Reagan, 40th President of the United States of America:
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
America faces attacks upon its economic well-being, its historic values, principles and traditions, the very moral fabric of its society and the supreme law of the land, the United States Constitution. The enemy attacks from within the American education system, in movies, on television, in newspapers, magazines and from within local, state and federal government.
Where are the defenders of the American way of life? Where are the defenders of America’s culture? Where are the defenders of equal protection under the law? Where are the defenders of the Constitutional Republic?
They are certainly not to be found within the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, where the nomination and eventual confirmation of two activist radical fringe left “progressive” Supreme Court Justice nominees were allowed by Republican Senator Lindsay Graham, who justified his votes by saying “Elections have consequences”. Certainly not within the Federal Court system, where Arizona’s legally passed defense of land and law was overruled by Bill Clinton appointed U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton. Certainly not among “Conservative” television pundits, who continue to allow flat out, bold faced lies spoken by radical fringe left “progressive” pundits go unchallenged.
Where are the heroes?
Are they only to be found within the American people? Is defense of the nation’s values, principles, and way of life left up to We The People?
If so, so be it. If it’s up to Patriotic Americans to preserve, protect and defend their nation, their culture, their land of laws, their values, their traditions, their moral fiber and their Constitution, they couldn’t be in better hands.
Americans fought and won independence from tyrannical monarchal government in the Revolutionary War. Americans fought and won against racist attempt to divide the nation during the Civil War. Americans fought and won the struggle against the tyrannical forces of Fascism in World War II. Americans fought and won the Cold War against the tyrannical Communist forces of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Now America is engaged in a war of ideas here on its own soil. To win, Americans need not fire a single shot. There are more Americansthan there are “progressives”.
Stand firm in your resolve. Do not ever back down. Be an American hero.
Make sure that this November, you and your American brethren go to the polls in record numbers and vote the radical fringe left “progressive” extremists who seek to destroy your country out of office.
This is not just any old election. November’s election is the battleground for America’s very survival. We The People are responsible for the outcome. To honor those passed who fought to defend America. To preserve the future for you, your children and your grandchildren. Go to the polls and ensure the outcome of this November’s election.
Whether or not it was sought, now is the time for this generation to become the new Greatest Generation. Americans are up to it. It’s in America’s DNA.
All those hateful hard core right wing extremists really should quit trashing poor President Obama. There can be no doubt that his presidency has been nothing if not historical.
Here is an impressive list of some of his accomplishments:

Then he was the First President to tell the members of the military that THEY were UNPATRIOTIC for balking at the last suggestion.
First President to side with a foreign nation over one of America’s 50 states (Mexico vs. Arizona).
How is that hopey-changey thing working out for you?
Thanks to Obama’s insistence on remaining a stubborn, inflexible partisan ideologue, this list keeps growing.
THERE IS AN ELECTION COMING IN NOVEMBER…REMEMBER THIS LIST WHEN YOU VOTE!
The White House re-election campaign wants to make a deal. In exchange for GOP presidential challenger Mitt Romney releasing five years of tax returns, they will stop criticizing him for not releasing more. While hiding behind the skirt of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the White House campaign alleges there may be as many as ten years when Romney evaded paying income taxes.
Romney says that over the past decade he has paid at least 13 percent in federal income taxes. According to the Joint Committee on Taxation, a non-partisan group, middle income families average paying 12.8 percent in federal income tax.
Critics complain that Romney pays too few taxes. At his income level, Romney pays plenty of taxes. Romney made every penny he has. Hence every dime he uses to make investments has already been taxed at wage income rates. Romney pays a lower tax rate than wage earners because a majority of his income comes from investments, which are taxed at a lower rate than wages. Investment income is taxed at a lower rate because, unlike wages, investments are at risk.
If Romney was guilty of income tax evasion, the IRS would already be after him and his campaign for the White House would long be over. The IRS falls within the Department of Treasury. At the behest of the White House, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and the IRS would be all over Romney like a ravenous pack of hyenas.
Romney has released his 2010 tax records and vowed to release his 2011 returns. That matches the number of returns released in 2008 by Senator John McCain when he was the GOP candidate. The number of tax returns released by McCain was never an issue.
This is not Let’s Make A Deal, and David Axelrod is not Monty Hall. For Mitt Romney only a booby prize or worse waits behind curtain number three.
This bait and switch by the White House and their “progressive” co-conspirators is more than simply a distraction from the issues.
Throughout a shadowy, veiled, mystery shrouded political career where his own past has been intentionally concealed, obtaining confidential information about political opponents and distorting that information to smear them has been the signature move of this candidate.
Remember, the current Oval Office occupier is the same clandestine, shadowy figure caught in an open-mic moment with then Russian president Dmitry Medvedev saying that after his re-election he would have “more flexibility”.
Flexibility for…?
Three members of a Russian punk band were found guilty and sentenced to two years in jail for protesting against Russian president Vladamir Putin. The band members were arrested on March 3rd and charged with “hooliganism”. Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, 22, Maria Alyokhina, 24, and Yekaterina Samutsevich, 30 have been in jail ever since.
What kind of flexibility is this secretive, anti-business, hostile to constitutionally protected individual Liberty White House promising to a Russian president who imprisons people for free speech?
Is this flexibility related to the Department of Homeland Security, the Social Security Administration, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Education, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Internal Revenue Service each purchasing multi-thousands of rounds of hollow point bullets?
Could this flexibility include plans to tighten the iron grip of power by imposing Martial Law and suspending elections to ensure he can finish the “fundamental transformation” of America through the imposition of a form of government completely foreign to every principle espoused by its Founding Fathers?
By agreeing to release any additional tax returns, Mitt Romney would be making a crucial mistake. Let the White House re-election campaign go into grand mal seizure. Let them scream like banshees and howl at the moon. Let them cry like babies. Let them wet themselves. Let them posture, threaten, intimidate and bully. You can bet your underwater sub-prime mortgage they will do anything, be it lie, cheat and steal to win this election.
To borrow a phrase from another popular television game show: No deal.
Following GOP presidential challenger Mitt Romney’s selection of Rep. Paul Ryan as his running mate, the All Barrack Channel, commonly known as ABC, assumed the form of Amy Walter to administer a spoonful of “progressive” medicine intended to stop the American sugar for going down.
By calling Ryan’s budget plan synonymous with political polarization, then portraying Mitt Romney picking Ryan for VP as guaranteeing an ideological debate, Walter displays nothing short of utter contempt for voters and their ability to research, learn and decide for themselves.
Even if Walter is correct in saying that a debate over the role of government is looming, she is wrong in assuming, presuming, dictating that swing voters do not want that debate. Closer to the truth, “progressives” do not want the debate to take place because it could lead to swing voters learning the distinctions between the differing philosophies. Hence, ABC and other card carrying members of the “progressive” Party Pravda publish “information” that preordains the conclusion to which readers must necessarily arrive: Voters do not want to debate the proper role of government.
Voters are most certainly interested in what their government does, how far it reaches into their lives, and the scope of its power. Voters have interests that surpass simply having a government that works.
For “progressives” and their Pravda lapdogs, it feeds their agenda to determine and present as fact that voters only want a government that works efficiently. Safe to say, “progressives” living in America are highly motivated to be primarily concerned with a government that efficiently rewards them with their “fair share” of food stamps, welfare checks, “free” healthcare and other so-called “entitlement” goodies.
The Nazi government was highly efficient in taking a defeated, bankrupt country to the brink of global domination…and slaughtering millions. When it came to the systematic removal of millions of Chinese, Chairman Mao had a well-oiled government. The Soviet system very effectively created a manmade disaster while committing genocide by starving millions of Ukrainians to death during the Holodomor. Che Rivera was ruthlessly efficient in eliminating Fidel’s political opposition in Cuba.
The silent majority, astonished, alarmed and disgusted by the scale, scope and over-reach of the fringe, radical, anti-American agenda enacted by “progressives” armed with unrestrained, unbridled power, got up off the couch and formed the Tea Party. Contrary to what Walters would have readers believe, the Tea Party is as popular and influential as ever.
The 2010 election that swept Conservatives back in control of the House was indeed a mandate: Do not compromise with those whose negotiating position begins and ends with “what is yours is ours and what is mine is mine.” History repeatedly reveals that whenever those with this negotiating position obtain final grasp of unrestrained, unbridled power, they do not compromise with their political opposition, they eliminate it.
The reason Washington DC is polarized and ineffective is the harsh, uncompromisingly rigid partisan positions taken by Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, the current Oval Office occupier and their “progressive” collaborators.
The November 2012 election is a decision voters will make between two competing ideologies. Voters will determine what role government plays in the lives of people. Whether “progressives” like it or not, a small government with limited power is the basic construct of the American idea; one “progressives” have long sought to destroy.
Americans want to have the debate “progressives” do not. The simple reason “progressives” do not want that debate and are so eager to convince swing voters they do not want it either is simple. That debate is one “progressives” will lose.
