Cry Of The New American Revolution

“When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. When the government fears the people, there is liberty.” – Thomas Jefferson 

 Given the stunning advances Western society made over the last hundred years both socially and technologically, most Americans grew up with the belief that things would always “turn out for the best” in the long run, and this was a chief underpinning of our worldview. 

Despite having fought such foes as Adolf Hitler and weathered the prolonged tensions and fears of the Cold War, even these had come to inspiring conclusions. I think that until very recently, few Americans ever considered a fundamental paradigm shift for the worse. 

Our positive worldview has been a two-edged sword of sorts. On the one hand, it tempered our resolve and conviction; when you believe you’re going to win, it can go a long way toward manifesting that victory. On the other hand, given such an outlook, one – or a nation – might get lulled into a false sense of security. 

I believe that this is, in part, precisely what occurred with regard to the American people and the enemies from within against whom we are now engaged. We believed that given the promise the future and our aggregate potential held, and our ability to contribute to the betterment of those around the globe, who would even want to stand against us? Those who have a desire to foment or prolong human suffering – that’s who. I admonish Americans to stop seeding ground to America’s enemies as a stratagem toward strengthening our position against these enemies from within. 

This generally evolves those in special  interest groups and the manner in which we view and interact with them. I pointed out how they, in keeping with the desires of their leftist leaders, employ “wedge” issues that appeal to Americans’ good nature or fear in order to incrementally modify our behavior, and how these have, over time, insidiously compromised every aspect of our society. 

Here, I will address the government. While the federal government is at present the primary offender, the motivations and professional ethics of many at the state and local level have also been compromised (often by the federal government itself). 

Lately we have seen dark factions pouring millions of dollars into state politics, as well as those in state governments who are ideologically aligned with those at the federal level, governing against the will of the people. This includes politicians, of course, but can also include state and local government officials, the judiciary, as well as law enforcement. 

 The net used to ensnare our liberties has been cast repeatedly over a long period of time, and each time it is cast increasingly wider. For example, laws and statutes that violate the Second Amendment have been passed over many decades, which should have drawn severe backlash from citizens. They did not, because they were ostensibly offered as for our own good. 

Taxation and thousands of regulations concocted as fiat law by unconstitutional federal agencies have become more and more ideology-driven and tyrannical. We have only taken notice because the Obama administration “upped the game” almost exponentially with regard to advancing the statist agenda. 

 At this point, the liberties government has taken (pun intended) with regard to usurping our liberty are enumerable, and no half- hearted political solution will address their transgressions or this retrogression from governance to rule. 

 While this administration definitely represents a clear and present danger to our liberties, the Constitution and the continuance of this nation as a growing concern, it is really just an acute symptom of a progressive disease that has gone untreated for far too long. 

Those who govern us are evil and audacious; their rhetoric and that of their supporters reflects a desperation beyond urgency. The criminals in government are aware of their crimes and are banking on Americans’ desire for relative safety and comfort outweighing our desire for liberty. 

They are also banking on our ignorance of the fact that we will lose all three if their agenda continues unchecked. Ultimately, they must be made to realize that there is a willingness (if not a desire) on the part of the American people to go to any length to wrest the government from them.If they do not perceive this willingness, they will simply continue in their designs to subjugate us. 

They may not win, but the toll will be very great. Better to convey our willingness to fight and possibly circumvent the necessity to fight altogether.

I'm lying if my lips are moving

On January 28, the President of the United States will stand before a joint session of Congress and lie to them and to all Americans. 

The mainstream media will treat it as a serious presentation and make no mention of the lies. 

Following the State of the Union speech (SOTU) there will be a formal response by a Republican spokesman. It will be very polite and not likely to strongly expose the lies and oppose the President.

The “low information” Americans will take Barack Obama at his word. Nearly half of all Americans who might listen to the speech or read about it are on some form of government dole or entitlement program. 

They are interested in food stamps unemployment compensation, their disability status, and an older generation will understandably want to ensure their Social Security checks keep coming and Medicare will continue to underwrite their medical costs.

Whatever Obama has to say about the Affordable Care Act—Obamacare—will be a lie His administration continues to lie about the number of those who have enrolled, but we know they are mostly the elderly while the younger generation wisely avoids it. 

We live in a nation where more than 90 million Americans are out of work, cannot find work, or have given up looking for work. Anything Obama has to say about the economy will be a lie.

When Obama gives his speech, the total population of America will be 317,490,000 people. It is the third-most populous nation in the world with 82% residing in cities in suburbs as of 2011. 

Anyone who has driven throughout the nation knows that much of it is nearly uninhabited. A mere 2% of the population are the farmers and ranchers who feed the rest of us.

The two most populous states are California and Texas. New York City has the largest population of the nation’s cities. It just elected a Communist as its new mayor. He has announced he intends to raise taxes.

There are an estimated eleven million illegal aliens living in America and The New York Times reports that number may be growing. 

Previous efforts at amnesty resulted in not only endowing them with citizenship but their entire families, many of whom joined them from their home nations. At a time of high unemployment among natural born and naturalized citizens, increasing the population in this fashion will only add to the economic problems the slowest recovery in decades represents. In Congress Democrats favor an amnesty.

Republicans are unsure of whether to oppose or accept it.
In addition to amnesty, the President will no doubt make some mention of tax reform. The reform the nation needs is the elimination of the income tax in favor of a fair tax based on consumption of products and services. You buy it. You pay a national sales tax.

No doubt the President will make some reference to gun control. He has been unable to get any legislation about it and has relied on executive orders to impose limits on the Second Amendment. Meanwhile, Americans are buying guns like crazy. It’s about self-defense and the prospect of a President who may not want to leave office He will cite the Newtown slayings, but mass slayings in America have not increased in decades. It is not common, though it is always tragic.

It’s hard to predict how much time Obama will devote to“climate change”, but this greatest hoax of the modern era is very dear to him and the Democrats in Congress. A group of them are signing a letter to be sent to the heads of the network channels urging them to devote more airtime to lies about how carbon dioxide is causing the Earth to warm and poses a huge threat. The Earth meanwhile, has been in a cooling cycle for seventeen years and many Americans recently experienced record- setting cold weather. More of them—though only about 23%--are beginning to express doubts about global warming. Duh.

The climate change agenda is being pursued outrageously by Obama’s Environmental Protection Agency which is issuing regulations intended to continue shutting down existing coal-fired plants that generate electricity and keep new ones from being built. It is a direct attack on the nation’s economy which depends on electricity. Whatever Obama says about it will be a lie.

No doubt he will make reference to his latest scam, income inequality. If there is one thing communists love it is class warfare. The best way to reduce income inequality is well known. economy that provides more Meanwhile, there may be a passing reference to increasing the minimum wage, a great way to deny entry-level jobs to young workers and increase the cost of everything else to the consumer.

Obama is not likely to have much to say about foreign affairs. In general he has managed to reduce America’s role as an international leader for democracy, justice and human rights. We are running out of allies, especially in the Middle East where Israel remain friendly.

When I was a young man coming of age in the 1980s I could never imagine living in a nation whose moral structure was such that a million unborn children are killed every year by abortion. I would never have believed that some 40% of women would choose to be single mothers. Or that the divorce rate would reach 50% and more. I could never imagine young men and women graduating from college with huge debts in an economy where jobs were not only fewer, but subject to an Obamacare law that forces businesses to cut the number of hours they work, limiting their earning capacity.

This is not an America I envisioned, but it is one that Presidents and Congresses since the Great Depression of the 1930s whose government they have expanded to the point where many Americans regard Big Government as the biggest problem facing the nation. They’re right.
