It's my opinion and
I'm Sticking to it!
The Government and its meddling ways!
I don't know about you, but I'm fed up! I have been in business for myself for most of the past 30 years and if there is one thing I have discovered it's that the government just doesn't get it!
We all understand that nothing happens in America until Somebody BUYS Something! America is based on business.
The Government creates Nothing...
it only steals from those of us who do! Now, most of us are willing to agree that there are things we want and need that we can't provide for ourselves and the government is designed to provide.
Roads, schools, military protection, police, fire protection and much more. We realize that that has to be paid for somehow and are willing to contribute our fair share in the form of taxes to have these things available to us.

According to the Founding Fathers...
Our Founding Fathers were incredibly intelligent and forward thinking people. They saw what value government had and they also saw what a monster government would become if left to its own devices.
That is why our Founding Fathers included these words in the Preamble:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal , that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
They also understood that this was not to be taken lightly and admonished us against changing our government in willy-nilly ways.
I am not advocating overthrowing
the government...
But, I am standing up and saying out loud that our Founding Fathers told us that we must be ever vigilant or our government would overwhelm us with taxes, regulations and control of our freedoms.
These intelligent and thoughtful men structured our Constitution in a way that gave each and every one of us the same opportunity to succeed or fail depending upon our willingness to take responsibility for ourselves.
That is why I can write this rant without worrying about the gendarmes breaking in the door and hauling me away.
They also intended for our public servants to serve a short time and then return to their previous endeavors. Career politicians were not the desire or the intent of the Founding Fathers.

They Weren't Perfect...
As forward thinking and intelligent as they were our Founding Fathers could not have been expected to think of everything.
They knew that and that is why they gave us the option to amend the Constitution when we realized that circumstances had changed or something had been left out.
This kept us from having a Revolution over every little thing and allows us to have continuity while changing with the times.
They made an error in omitting this...
Just as we realized in the late 1930's that having a President with unlimited terms could lead to unintended consequences. We now need to understand the same is true of unlimited terms for those in the Legislative Branch.
While I would agree we do not always want brand new Senators and Representatives in power; we must consider that to have the same people in control for an unlimited time is a recipe for disaster.
The temptations are many...
Let me ask you, 'Why would some one spend 10's of millions of dollars to get a job that pays only 100's of thousands?'
We all know the answer to that question. Power and big payoffs later (or maybe even sooner).
The old saying "Power Corrupts" could not be truer. Our so-called leaders are being corrupted faster than we can vote them out!
They won't do this...
We need term limits for our Senators and Representatives! They certainly won't vote for an amendment to the Constitution to enact them!
After all, what they want more than anything else is to get re-elected and keep those great perks, power and prestige.
It is up to you and me to do it...
We don't need an amendment to impose term limits! We have the ability to do this in November of every other year!
We can THROW THE BUMS OUT! All we have to do is vote them out.
Now, Einstein said it best: "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."
That is what we are doing when we continue to re-elect the same people over and over again and expect that they will all of a sudden start listening to us instead of the special interests.

My guy is OK, it's your guy that
needs to go...
Why do you suppose we keep getting the same people elected when all the polls say we only give our representatives an 18% approval rating?
It is because we tend to think in this way, 'my Senator/Representative is OK, he/she got us a new swimming pool for the park. It is your guy who voted to build that bridge to nowhere, he needs to go.'
It is this way of thinking that has given us the wonderful representation we have today.
I say it's time to change...
I say it is now time to THROW THE BUMS OUT! It is time to vote against ALL incumbents and completely change the make-up of our National and State bodies of representation.
I focus mainly on Washington because they are the ones making it so hard for the small business person to survive by not only imposing national laws on us but forcing our state and local governments to impose odious rules on us in order to get their slice of the pie.
If you agree then...
Join me in displaying this little bit of a political statement on your vehicle in hopes that others will get the courage to stand up and say: "Enough is Enough!"
It is our Country and we are taking it back from those who would strip us of our Freedom, our Independence and take our Opportunity to Succeed!
For just $3.00, including shipping and handling you can make your feelings known and encourage others to help in the fight to regain our country and return it to the Constitutional Republic which our Forefathers gave so much to institute so many years ago.

Here we all sit while Nero Fiddles and we get BURNED! Nero, of course, is the group of people we have elected to run our Republic! Isn't it amazing how those in power have decided what we think is of no value?
They say what we want to hear until they get elected then they do as they wish. Just as an example, if you had listened to John Bohener speak concerning Obamacare you would have certainly believed that if he got the opportunity he would do all he could to repeal it and put us back on the road to sanity.
However, once he got what he really wanted, the power of Speaker of the House, his tune changed. He has kept bills that would have repealed or defunded Obamacare off the House floor as if he had never called it the dimming of the hope in our children's eyes!
The same can be said of the fiscal insanity that is being spread throughout our government. The Democrats want to borrow and spend as if government is the answer to the problems facing our economy. What balderdash! One cannot borrow their way our of debt, not even the U.S. Government! Yet, the Democrats rant and rave about how we have to borrow more money in order to keep things going. They want to raise the taxes to increase revenues to pay for this continued borrowing. This is insane!
We do not have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem! The government has to cut spending in order to save our Republic. The government has become too large and overbearing to sustain itself for much longer. It is time for those in positions of power to realize this and to take the actions necessary to give us back our Republic and halt the rush to socialism and ruin that is currently underway.
Socialism does not work! 'To each according to his needs' did not work in the Soviet Union and it will not work here! The government can't take from those that produce and give to those that will not and expect those producers to continue producing. That is what brought the Soviet Union to its knees and it will do the same to our Republic!
The Republicans are no better! They claim to be the party of small government but when in power they rush to increase the size and power of the government just as the Democrats do. The Republican leadership is currently playing the shell game that seems to so easily fool us. They claim to want to reign in spending and balance the budget, but when push comes to shove they cave and enact some meaningless laws that seem, on the surface, to make headway. But, when examined and put into force the reigning is only by them as lords and masters over the idiotic proletariat who are so easily manipulated and fooled. (that is you and I my fellow Americans).
If you truly want to keep our Republic it is time for you to come to the aid of our Country. It is time to sand up and screamENOUGH!!!!!!! We have a Constitution and we expect you, our elected officials (our employees) to abide by it and to abolish the unconstitutional departments, czars and commissions you have created and return us to Constitutional America.
If you have not voted you should be banished from America. If you do not start voting you should have your citizenship taken away. Our Founding Fathers established a Constitutional Republic and in order for it to work we must, each and every one of us, take responsibility for it. The only way to do this is to participate and to hold those we elect to a higher standard.
We have no lords, we have no princes or princesses and we have no king in the United States of America. Our elected officials seem to think they are just that and we are allowing them to continue to as so.
It is OUR FAULT!!!! We cannot blame them for doing exactly what our Founding Fathers said they would do if we we not ever vigilant. The time has come for ALL good citizens to come to the aid of their country! That means me and that means YOU!
We may only have one more chance to save our Republic. If wholesale changes are not made in November of 2012 we may just lose our Republic and our Freedom! We have already allowed the Fourth Amendment to be destroyed by the Congress, the President and the Courts.
This very Amendment is the result of why we Declared our Independence form Britain. The authorities can now enter your home without a warrant, a knock or a stated reason and you cannot do a thing about it! If you try, you will probably be shot full of holes! It has and is already happening. This Amendment was put into the Constitution in order to keep the stamp act from occurring again. The stamp act was the final straw that caused our Founding Fathers to Declare our Independence and break from Britain and now, we have allowed our own government to institute a 21st century stamp act without so much as a what the ????????
If this is allowed to stand and if we return these usurpers to power in 2012 we will only see more and more of our Freedoms taken from us and our Constitution crumpled up and thrown at our feet.
So, I call on all who read this to stand up and scream, ENOUGH!!!! We have had all we are going to take. We recognize the need for government but we will not allow government to dictate to us and we will not allow government to take away our inalienable rights that were given to us by our Creator, not the government! We let King George know of our disapproval in 1776 and we will let you know of our disapproval in the 21st century!
The time has come and if you don't act the time will have gone. Remember the Republic and come to its aid! NOW!!!
If you agree please speak out, don't just set there and nod your head. Head nodding will not save our Republic or our Freedoms. Freedom is not free it requires participation by those that wish to remain free!
God bless America and God bless you. Have the courage to stand for what you believe in and if you believe in America and what is has stood for for over 235 years now is the time! |
