A funny thing occurred while I was watching the presidential debates
on CNN. First, it was unthinkable that the highest rated broadcast in
CNN’s history happened to be a republican presidential debate. The irony
is palatable. Secondly, I text a friend of mine, who is an Obama
supporter, and her returning text came back with two defining words:
‘Watching Debate’.
She of all people was the last person I ever
expected to be watching anything with the word republican in it. But
then I thought about it. She is Black, is highly educated, and out of a
job and is barely making ends meet. She’s currently working on a
doctoral degree while she subs as a teacher, which is usually two or
three times a week, and continues to be a financial struggle. The point
is that this Obama supporter wanted to hear what the republicans had to
offer and that is why she tuned in.
People are beginning to wake
up. Something is amiss in America and constituents from both sides of
the aisles sense it. Government spending is out of control, government
regulation is off the chart, the economy is about to freefall, and our
country is being overrun by people from other cultures and with the help
of our leaders. Not surprisingly, establishment politicians are out of
favor.
In addition to this, our values, customs and our way of
life are being diminished and pushed aside in favor of outside customs
and cultures invading our shores with no intent on assimilating into
ours. Finally, government is going after our children with
indoctrination programs and left-wing propaganda, all which is
anti-American.
In our eyes, government has gone too far when
they go after our children. As a result Americans are revolting all
across the fruited plains. Programs like Common Core have to go! We do
not like it and furthermore, there was nothing wrong with the way our
generation was taught.
Less we forget, our generation invented
the personal computer, the IPad, hi-definition television, and the
Internet. We sent men to the moon, built the fastest jets that ever
flew, and we also built the most technological fighting force the world
has ever seen and all with a slide rule.
On another matter,
requiring our children to report back to government about their parent’s
habits, comings and goings, and whether or not we are gun owners, has
got to stop too. It is unethical, un-American, and unconstitutional and
will not be tolerated.
In other countries, citizens are bullied
and pushed around by their dictators and political leaders. In America,
government can push its citizens but so far before they wake up and
begin to push back. And if necessary their push will become a shove.
And
if that is not enough, they will arm themselves. And government better
realize that they are prepared to stand their ground. Liberty and
freedom from government is in our DNA. We will rebel. And that is
exactly what is occurring right before our eyes.
It is no
surprise that government is astonished that we are not going along with
the program. They do not understand that when they began to force us to
do this and do that, that was the final straw. In the name of the
Almighty, and the principles laid down by our Founding Fathers, we have
decided to put the government back in its rightful place.
Americans
are tired of having an apologist for a leader. Americans are tired of
being badmouthed. And we are tired of being forced and assaulted by
government on all fronts; to include education, housing, medical
matters, 1st and 2nd Amendment matters, and this dastardly thing called
political correctness. We are tired of our rights being trampled upon by
an ever growing and oppressive government.
We Americans are
saying is this; Barack Hussein Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid and
Supreme Court Justice Roberts, and other likeminded entities are not
going to dictate to us anything that is not sanctioned by our
Constitution and we aim to let them know that. If they haven’t heard,
they have awakened a sleeping giant and that giant is its massive
citizenry.
The way we see it, we’re on a war-footing like never
before in our history. It has come down to ‘we the people’ verses big
government and special interest groups. The survival of our country and
our freedoms is at stake here. And yes, we aim to correct this and the
injustices our bloated government has rained down on us.
Sadly,
our democrat counterparts are seeking salvation in an avowed communist
instead of remaining true to the principles of our Founding Fathers and
the United States Constitution. But the fact that they are just as livid
with government as is, is in itself telling. The funny thing is that
the beltway politicians probably have no clue that they are about to be
targeted next by ‘we the people’ when their election cycle comes up.
As
for republicans, conservatives and constitutionalists, we are making a
stand for our rights and our way of life. We are drawing a definitive
line in the sand. Our message is a unified ‘we’re had enough and we are
not going to take this anymore’. We on the conservative side know that
the government is supposed to work for us, not rule over us. We also
remember what happened in Germany decades ago and we know it can happen
to us too.
That is when Hitler came into power, not by
force, but by coercion and by way of nationalist propaganda. The people
elected him into office and soon after that he joined forces with the
elite of Germany who helped him expand his power and influence. In time,
Hitler convinced ailing President Paul von Hindenburg to appoint him
chancellor on Jan. 30, 1933 — setting Germany on a course to war and
genocide.
What this monster unleashed after he gained
absolute power is beyond deplorable. And who came to the rescue of
Europe and the rest of the world? The United States of America and its
military and those who worked in factories back home to support the war
effort. How easy we forget history and its lessons.
When
Hitler came onto the political scene in Germany, the German people were
in a bad way, much like America is in now. Effects of the debt from the
First World War were still evident in everyday life. People were
starving and many were homeless. Unemployment was high and the future
looked bleak. Then comes along a charismatic ideologue named Hitler who
promised the German people a better life and even the world.
Hitler
played on the angst the citizenry had and promised to make things
better when no one else could. He delivered a grand scheme that he
convinced the people would be fool proof. Once he gained the confidence
of the people, he went after religious institutions and those who voiced
dissent. He did this by forming the feared SA and SS military
units. Tyranny was the end result. That is not going to happen here in
America. As a nation, we are adverse to tyrants.
The
reality is this; Obama and his minions have underestimated the will of
the American people. And establishment republicans have as well. Just
look at their response when Ben Carson spoke the truth. Many thought his
response to Muslims being president was political suicide as a result
of his political inexperience. It is they who do not get it. Ben spoke
the truth by expressing what nearly all Americans believe and think. We
dare tired of slick masters who shun the truth for political expediency
and gain.
Do not think for a moment that establishment
types and this current administration are not nervous over what they are
seeing and that is a revitalized citizenry who are now focused on
politics and everything related to it. That is why we have had back to
back record breaking audiences for these two presidential debates.
Fellow
Americans, keep the pressure on. This land is your land, this land is
my land. Nowhere in that song does it say that our land belongs to the
government. Continue to stand your ground. Make your children and
grandchildren proud of you. After all, you are doing this for them.
Do
not doubt that your voices are being heard up and down Pennsylvania
Avenue and all across Capitol Hill. For America and its future, this is a
good thing.
