Let’s talk effort, participation in an effort, who is, and who isn’t.
Where to begin? Let’s see. First and foremost, I have never claimed that I am even close to the smartest person on earth, and neither have I claimed to know her. I know it is “herâ€Â, because men are just too stupid to be the smartest person on earth. Otherwise, we wouldn’t buy stupid things like vacuum cleaners for Mother’s Day, pots and pans for Christmas, or those stupid assed teddy bears that cost $60 that have nothing to do with our true personalities or those stupid pajama grams that really don’t do anything for HER but instead help us to get all excited about making “the face†after slapping her ass and saying the completely wrong thing…But I digress
It has been rather apparent in the last few decades, at least, that our very way of life in America has been under fire from within our own borders; and from a concentrated effort to change the way we live, the way we think, the things we hold dear, and the freedoms that we enjoy. Let me explain my train of thought: (As though you could change my mind.)
We have watched the political process in this country change from the founder’s intended methods to methods involving deception, cheating, and fraud. These changes haven’t gone unnoticed, but they have gone fairly well unchallenged. I am not talking one party, either. It is the entire process that has been over run with the contempt for the average citizen and disregard for truth and law.
We watched as one of the greatest two term Presidents this country has known was dragged through the mud, day after day, and repeatedly attacked for his courage and wisdom as being a war monger, a harbinger of fear, and many other things. I am not talking about George W. Bush. I am talking about Ronald Reagan. In his two terms as our President, he was often bashed as being senile, overbearing, etc. Name it, they called him that. Yet with the hindsight of twenty years, his policies brought about a fundamental change to the way our society in America went about daily business. We went from having our children practicing bomb drills in our schools’ hallways and watching oppressed peoples in defeated countries deal with communism and tyranny with sympathy in our hearts to a world where the communist models had been proven to be not only ineffective, but an outright lie as to their potential. We watched as walls fell and a country disintegrated because of failed policies and harsh totalitarianism. All due to the confrontation that Ronald Reagan placed in their laps.
Our economy grew in this period of our history because industry was allowed to innovate and overcome the challenges faced in the arms race that was called “The Cold Warâ€Â. Peace through strength worked in our favor. Mr. Reagan knew it would and told us so repeatedly. We believed him then, as we believe that he was truly a great human being as well as a great President.
In today’s revisionist rendition of history, it has been said that Soviet Russia would have fallen, regardless of who we called our President at the time. This blasts logic in the face simply based on the previous administrations’ policies and how Soviet Russia dealt with them. When Reagan became President, they truly had to fear that he had the backbone to say exactly how he felt and follow through with it, which was that he would rather see mankind cause Armageddon versus allow mankind to live another minute under tyranny and oppression. He showed Soviet Russia that he was serious and meant business. He was also of the generation that witnessed the rise of communism and the destruction it left in its wake.
With the Cold War all but history after 1989, our country decided that it had no enemies. The gloves came off, and a collective sigh of relief was let go. And the games began.
In our recent history, we have watched the political hypocrisy grow almost unfettered since the end of the Cold War. Once Congress lost vision as to what bipartisanship really meant, it was party politics and “what’s in it for meâ€Â, creating the September 10th mentality so often described. The Democrat party slowly became invaded by “liberal†ideology, which closely resembles Socialism/Marxism in every way. Wealth envy became a political game to play as well as racism, religion, and anything else that could come up on an agenda to be target of the “fairness†game. These tactics come straight from Lenin’s own writings in which he discusses the revolution in empirical Russia. “We must take up the cause of the peasant, and make him think we are his savior. He will not fail to back us. We must take up the cause of religion and make it a bastion of corruption so that each man feels he has been lied to by the state church and he will back us. We must make the common man feel as though he is nothing but a number, for that is what we will use him as. Comrade Marx wrote, ‘To each according to his need, from each according to his ability.’†These very same political goals have become the goals of the left of this country. The destruction of Christianity has been a goal since prior to 1989, but it has been backed by the more liberal courts in this country since. The amoral has become mainstream and morally accepted. The education standards have become so solvent that a monkey could pass all grades from elementary school through high school and move along toward college. Our sense of personal identity has become eroded to the point that we are, on whole, a celebrity driven ambitious bunch who collectively couldn’t answer three questions regarding the political policies of our country, but could name every American Idol contestant since season one. This leads me to what I titled this document.
“Let’s talk effort, participation in an effort, who is and who isn’t.†What do you personally think I meant by that statement? While I realize I may be preaching to the choir, I am writing this to share with you the feelings that I have had for a very long time about our country. I have stated that I am not loyal to our country. I am loyal to our Constitution. Our country changes its mind as to what is right and wrong more often than Bill Clinton’s dick has been in someone else other than his wife. Not in a very long time has “right†meant what was constitutionally right. It has been what is “in†on television, or who is hot and who is not since I can remember. Our education system, as mentioned, has been eroded in this country to the point that basic history isn’t even taught anymore, and worse yet, a revisionist history is, and nobody is taking notice. We have a current president who has openly stated that our constitution is fatally flawed. His cabinet has a history of arguing that it was not only fatally flawed, but it is also a “living documentâ€Â, meaning that its intent and meaning changes from generation to generation based on the political winds of the country. I call bull.
The overwhelming sense at present is that an effort has been underway for a very long time in this country to subjugate the American citizen to a way of life where those in power, stay in power by taking from those who succeed and giving to those who vote them into power, simply because they are too lazy or incompetent to succeed on their own. Since the beginning of civilization, those who wanted any type of work done have paid those who would do the work, simply to do the work. That, in today’s collective mentality is no longer good enough, nor is it “fairâ€Â. In today’s collective mentality each citizen is owed something simply because they exist, not because they put any effort into their existence.
Now, don’t get me wrong, I am of the opinion that fair compensation be offered for the cost of living, etc. but that determination should be made at the time of employment through negotiation between the employer and the employee and not through the direct intervention from government. It is not acceptable to me that a potential employer be mandated as to what he or she will pay their prospective employees based on the fact that a politician is pandering to those insipid enough to have voted for him or her.
It is my belief, and I am not alone, that the government has yet to demonstrate even one successful endeavor when it comes to running any type of program in this country. The Constitution enumerates the powers of Congress to regulate commerce, not run commerce. There is a huge difference. Regulation is simply that. Making law that dictates legal trade practices and enforcing those laws through prosecution of criminal activity, and then getting out of the way of commerce so that commerce can prosper and grow this country. The recent “bail outs†and “stimulus packages†that our current Congress has shoved down our throats is simple piracy of our commerce system that we call capitalism through the deliberate overstepping of boundaries of regulation straight into doctrine and mandate of the commerce market. Capping of executive salaries is fine if those companies who take from public coffers for a “bail out†if those companies agree to that being stipulated to them, but it has been outright stated that it will expand into the board rooms of all companies, not just those who choose to beg for handouts from the taxpayer. This is a blatant overstepping of powers specifically enumerated to Congress and the President of The United States of America in the Constitution, and it is a concerted effort participated in by the socialist movement in this country. So, what can we do about it?
That question has been asked almost rhetorically so many times to me that I become infuriated by it at this point. “What can I do about it, my vote doesn’t count.†or whatever form it takes, it always takes the similar tone that no matter what we do, we’re screwed. “Politicians lie all the time… so what? It doesn’t affect my daily life.†Well, I am here to tell you that it does affect your daily life in the form of taxation, rights that you enjoy based on the Constitution’s protections, and many other daily activities that you may enjoy.
A solid effort must be brought about by those of us who ‘get it’ and understand how important it is to defeat this mindset. Each day as we go through our day we must remind ourselves and everyone around us that there is history in the warnings that rights being eroded ever so slightly are still rights crushed no matter how long it takes them to be crushed under the weight of greed and corruption. We must begin to convince those around us that the lies and deceit in Washington D.C. are no longer acceptable. The hate mongering of wealth envy, racism, etc. need to be taken away as tools of the career politician and replaced with individual responsibility and accountability. We must allow Lady Liberty to stand tall and free of her chains once again, void of all subjugation through pandered legislation. We must spread the word that welfare is oppression, and those very same career politicians who keep posting carrot and stick promises of more relief after more relief after more relief are just keeping the poor poorer simply because it keeps them in power, as does taking from the successful to redistribute to the unsuccessful. We must spread the word that the fear mongering over racism is not only overblown but markedly so in order to keep those who are dependents of their government, dependant upon their government simply so those in power stay in power.
This effort has to be made, just as the socialist movement’s effort has been coordinated and made, or we shall certainly see an end to our Constitution. We must participate in our daily lives more than just passively making it through our days without stomping the living out of those who desperately need it, and start participating by making the simple demand that our government either pay attention to us, or move the hell out of our way. We must participate in the revolution once again. Our country’s revolution didn’t end in 1776, it began. It didn’t end in 1789, it simply began again. It continues to this day, for every day that we do not fight to maintain our Constitution vociferously and proudly is a day that the Constitution goes unprotected. Fairness is an adjective that gets bandied about rather freely these days. Fairness to me is returning the favor that our Constitution provides to us in the form of protecting our freedoms by protecting our Constitution from those who would like nothing more than to obtain totalitarian power once and for all over a subjugated and socialist society, Constitution be damned.
I will state, publicly here, that I do not wish a bloodletting form of revolution. I pray that we can revolt properly and save the bloodshed that was our country’s beginning. I do not, however, fear it. I fear inaction. If it should take a bloodletting, then I pray that we have the moral courage to stand up for what is right and fight with all of our hearts and minds for our Constitution once again. Pray with me, please, while it is still legal.
