Congressional Contracts

A wise man once said, “All that is required for evil to triumph, is for good men to do nothing”. I humbly submit that this axiom can be directly applied to our current national situation, with, perhaps a slight bit of rewording. So instead it would read, “All that is required for tyranny to triumph, is for patriots to do nothing.” Yeah, I like the sound of that. Make no mistake, ladies and gentlemen; we are fighting a war against tyranny. Daily, those despots in Washington, and even in our own state capitals, pass laws that strip innocent, law abiding citizens of a little more of their liberty. They say that these laws are for the good of the community, state, and /or nation. I submit to you that this is a bald faced lie! Very few, if any, of those jackals actually care what is good for the citizenry of this country. They care about lining their own pockets and getting re-elected. This is evidenced by the continual passing of laws that aid special interest groups and lobbyists in whatever pet projects they may have, while hurting the citizens. This cannot be allowed to continue! Our elected officials are supposed to be working for us. Were these kinds of actions taking place in the private sector, we would sue them for breach of contract.
In fact, that might not be such a bad idea. We should make our representatives, congressmen, senators, etc. sign contracts stating what they are obligated to do on our behalf, and prohibiting them from passing any laws or bills that work against the interest of their constituency. Then, when they mess up, we would at least have some course by which we could address these grievances. Also included in these contracts would be a morality clause. Why? It’s simple; if these men and women are responsible for running our country, they should be held to a higher standard of morality. Take for instance our armed forces. In the military, fraternization and adultery are illegal, punishable by court marshal and up to two years in a federal prison. These people, who are constantly in the public eye, should be held to the same level of accountability. I am so sick of hearing about this mayor, or that senator, cheating on his wife, cheating on their taxes, rape, committing murder or manslaughter, going on some drunken or drug induced binge, or being caught in various scandals such as soliciting sex from homosexual deviants. Yes, you know who I’m talking about. I should not have to list names.
It is true what they say: “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” That statement is proven by the fact that we have career politicians, who have never held an actual job in their lifetimes, running our country. In fact, they are not just running our country! They are running the banking, transportation, food, and healthcare sectors as well. These people have no idea how to run a business, and they are now in charge of the four largest private sector industries in the nation! How did this happen? Thomas Paine said it best. “When the people fear the government, you have tyranny. When the government fears the people, you have liberty.”
Personally, I’m beginning to believe that the majority of US citizens suffer from Attention Deficit Disorder. It’s like, “This is a travesty! We have to do some…Oh look! Something shiny…” We don’t pay attention to the news long enough to figure out that our country is in jeopardy. And what little news we do engage in, is twisted to fit the whims of a biased media. We don’t realize that liberty and freedom are under attack, not from any outside source, but from the very people who we put in office to protect those ideas. Adolf Hitler stated “How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think“. We cannot let this stand! I say to you that if we sit idly by while they strip away the very freedoms that our forefathers and ancestors fought so hard to obtain, then we deserve what we get!
Our children don’t deserve it. Our children deserve to grow up in the same free America that we grew up in. They deserve to be afforded the same opportunities that we were. They deserve to be able to choose for themselves. We owe it to them to preserve the proud heritage of this great nation. We owe it to our children to make sure that they have the freedom to make the decisions that will affect their futures. It is not our place to rob our children of the same liberties that we enjoyed.

Immorality

Have you ever wondered why it is that, less than a century ago, our children were well mannered, respectful, and had morals; yet today, they are the exact opposite? Let's take a moment to ponder all that has happened over the course of the last century. What's the big thing that comes to mind? For me, it's Women's Lib. Ladies, I know that I will offend quite a few of you by saying this, but Women's Lib is the worst thing that has ever happened to this country, indeed, the world.

When women started working outside of the home, and spending more and more time away from their children, this country started going downhill. Television and video games became our babysitters, and daycare centers began teaching our children socialism. I remember when most mothers stayed at home with their children, and we knew that education began at home. We did not leave it to the public school system to teach our children what was right and wrong; when Sunday morning values was something that every child was taught.

There was a time when young men were taught to be men; to grow up and be responsible, productive members of society. Now they are taught to look out for themselves and to succeed at any cost, regardless of who they have to step on to get there. Those that don't learn that lesson learn an equally destructive one: the world owes you everything, and its' okay to let others take care of you. Where are the men in this country??? What happened to a strong work ethic, and taking care of your family? Welfare was NOT designed to allow you to be lazy!!! It is supposed to be a hand up, not a hand out.

Ladies, don't think I forgot about you. Who gave you the right to leave your children's upbringing to the whims of the media and the government? Have any of you actually sat down and watched some of the television programs and video games that you allow to babysit your children? Do you know what they are learning from these shows and games? Unlawfulness, disrespect, and violence are the lessons they are taught, in addition to lying, stealing, cheating, and sexual immorality! For instance, a show that many of us grew up watching and loving is now teaching our children that homosexuality is okay. Why do Burt and Ernie have to be a married gay couple? For years, they were merely roommates, and that was okay. Why change it now???

Our children, our futures are coming home pierced, tattooed, and pregnant. Our daughters are putting "tramp stamps" on their backs, and they think that it is okay, they're just "expressing themselves". No wonder teenage pregnancy is such a rampant problem in this country. And don't get me started on abortion! There was a time that if a young girl was foolish enough to go out and have sex, she had to live with the consequences of her actions. Now, it is perfectly acceptable in our society for that same young girl to murder her unborn child. All that teaches our kids is that there are no consequences. They are free to do whatever they want to do, and we can just erase their mistakes. Where is our morality? Why are we as parents not taking the responsibility to teach our children what is right???

People say that we are progressing. What are we progressing toward?

Take me back to a time when people stood up for what they believed; not because it was popular, but because it was right. I want to go back to a time when people were not afraid to voice their opinions just because those opinions were unpopular. Ladies and gentlemen, I know that I am not the only person in this country who thinks this way. It is time for us to stand up! Stop being as sheep going meekly to the slaughter!! You have a voice, let it be heard!!!

If this post angers people, or causes me to ostracized, GOOD! I'm not trying to make people happy; I'm trying to make people think.


 

Until next time,

Letter to America:

Warning: If you are not a strong Constitutionalist, and perhaps a bit of a conspiracy theorist, this letter will probably make you angry…


 

If you're still reading, allow me to introduce myself, and tell you how I came to this point. My name is Nancy Thompson, and until recently, I was a sheep. Yes, I said it. I used to be a victim of our government's WMDs (Weapons of Mass Distraction). I mean music, movies, TV, sports, magazines, and my personal favorite, books. All of these things and so many more serve one purpose, and one purpose only: To distract American Citizens from what is really happening. Don't know what I'm talking about? Look around you. But more than that, I had fallen victim to one of our greatest follies. I actually believed that our government was looking out for the best interests of its citizens. I believed that, even if I didn't agree with what they were doing, they had access to information that I didn't have, and so must be making the best decisions that they could. At least, that's what I told myself. The truth is, I just didn't care enough to get involved. I was just one person. What could I say or do that would make a bit of difference? I realize now that one voice, lifted up and refusing to be quiet can stir other voices to join, and soon, you will have a choir, all singing in harmony. When you have that, people have no choice but the either listen up, or drown you out. Either way, you've got their attention.

You see, I am a tri-racial woman; white, black, and Cherokee. So, when Barack Obama first announced that he would be running for president, I was a little excited, I mean, how could I not be, right? Then I started paying attention to the things that he said and did. I watched his celebrity grow by leaps and bounds. The whole "Obamessiah" thing scared me, though. That people actually saw him as a savior. He's a human being, nothing more. So while millions of people were being swept up in an almost religious fervor for this guy, I was turned off. He seemed so disingenuous, and there were a lot of things about him that I found discomfiting. I tried to do research on him, you know, to find out what he was really all about, but to no avail. I couldn't find anything on him that wasn't common knowledge. That didn't seem right either, I mean, you can always dig up dirt on the internet, right? But what could I do? I spoke out against him to anyone who would listen, and, of course, I voted for the woman (Palin). Other than that, I could only sit back and watch as events played out on the political stage.

During the course of all of this, my unease grew steadily. I didn't know quite what the problem was, but I knew it was something big. Even if I couldn't find anything else on the man, what we did know was too much for me. They say that you can judge a man by the company that he keeps, and Wright, Rezco, and Ayers were the people with whom Obama spent large portions of his time. Need I say more? Still, there were those who said "Give him a chance", and "You don't know him". So, I continued to watch and wait.

I didn't have to wait very long. Immediately upon taking office, he began to utterly destroy our nation's economy. His "Stimulus Plan" was enough to ensure that our economy will not recover for several generations. He has crippled the private sector, and weakened our government nearly beyond repair. At first I thought to myself, "Can he really be this ignorant? This is lunacy. Surely someone will correct him!" I thought it was all a product of his inexperience, and naiveté, but I was wrong. As time went on, I could see that Obama's actions are not folly at all. He knows exactly what he is doing.

Since its inception, the United Nations has been trying to get the U. S. under its aegis, or control, but our government, and more importantly, our citizens have resisted. We refused to give up our sovereignty. So what better way to force us into submission than to destroy us from the inside out? Destroy us economically, and weaken our military, and we will have no choice but to ask the UN for help.

People become upset over what has been termed a redistribution of wealth, but what we fail to see is that it is actually a redistribution of power. America has, traditionally, been a world superpower, and as such, a major thorn in the side of the Globalization movement. The American Spirit has been the single largest obstacle to the achievement of a global government. Remove our might, and the Globalists can finally achieve their goals.

And that's where the WMDs come in. They distract us so that we don't notice what's going on behind the scenes. "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain…." The American people have been deceived for decades. The power elite have been playing a very elaborate and skillfully run game of Three Card Monty with our electoral process for years. What we don't see is that Every president we have had since WWII (except JFK), has enacted at least one law that has moved us closer to what George HW Bush termed "A New World Order". Perhaps none more so than our most recent one, George W Bush. With the inception of the Department Homeland Security, the Patriot Act, and the North American Union, Bush singlehandedly stripped the citizens of this country of more rights and freedoms than any other before him. Before now, he was the biggest threat to our nation's sovereignty, and our individual rights as citizens. Under the Patriot Act, the president has the Authority to enact martial law at any time, for any reason that he deems to be an "emergency". In other words, the swine flu would have been sufficient cause. Under that same act, breaking any law, local, state or federal, can be construed as an act of terrorism. That's right, even something as minor as jaywalking, or speeding. Don't believe me? Read it for yourself. You'd be amazed. I know I was.

Now we have our "savior', the "Anointed One", Barack Obama. The 700 Billion dollar stimulus package, Cap and Trade, Obamacare, and now they are talking about the possibility of a second stimulus plan. Honestly, we can't afford this much "help". But he knows that. As I said before, it's all by design. Additionally, there is a rumor floating around that some of his followers are trying to find a way to circumvent the 22 Amendment. If you don't know what that Amendment is, it's the one that limits a president to two- four year terms, or eight total years in office. So instead of President Obama, he would be Dictator Obama. I don't know how much, if any, truth there is to that rumor. We shall see.

What's next on the agenda? I don't know, but I can guarantee that it won't be anything that's actually good for America.

So if you're still wondering who I am, I am first and foremost, a child of God, second, a citizen of The United States of America, third, a staunch Constitutionalist, and fourth, AWARE.

Even if you don't fully agree with everything I say here, please, pass this on. Add your voice the choir that says "We will not stand idly by, while our country is thrown to the ravenous wolves."

Until next time,
