I just finished filling out a “2011 Speaker’s Survey – a Project of Friends of John Boehner.” I appreciate getting to express my opinions to our national legislators, and I certainly did so in this survey. But I couldn’t help being struck by the questions the survey asked. They were, for sure, pertinent to our present crisis in our beloved U.S.A., but it is absolutely ludicrous that they even needed to be asked!
For example, “Do you believe massive government spending is the best way to improve the nation’s economy and create good jobs?”
Now, I realize the Speaker asked this to get a resounding “Of course not!” from the most of us. But think about how stupid it is for him to have to do so! Anyone with an average education from several decades ago would say, “Huh? Are you kidding?” Hey, if you and I ran our personal finances that way, what would be the result? Well, ditto for our federal government!
WAKE UP, AMERICA!
Are so many of us so “dumbed down” that they cannot even think enough to know how ridiculous such a notion is??? I personally feel insulted and intellectually raped that our “progressive” (so-called) leaders would look us straight in the eye and expect us to believe they’re serious when they claim this as a solution. I know that they know they’re lying to our faces, and hoping that we don’t know it.
But I do. And I hope you do too.
A while back, earlier in the financial collapse, a gentleman asked me in frustration, “Why doesn’t our government do something about these problems?”
I answered, “Because they are not problems to our liberal leaders. This is exactly what they want, and what they have been laying the groundwork for, over the last several decades.” And, friend, mark my word: the powers that be will do anything to keep America’s financial recovery out of reach. Mark my word! They will not get serious about cutting runaway federal spending, and they will not really try to balance the budget. One of their top dogs has said that the way to take over a country is to bankrupt it. Look around you! That’s what they’re do-o-o-i-i-ing. And it is intentional. It’s part of their modus operandi. It helps them reach their goal! (I’ll have to look up who it was that said this.)
Ummm. What is their goal?
To destroy our American way of life and subject us to Communist rule. Do you think it’s a coincidence that our leaders have mortgaged us to Communist China??? Think again.
Next, the survey asked, “Should Republicans work to remove barriers to job creation and stop jobs-killing bills like “card check”?
I mean, “DUH!” Again, I realize why the Republican leadership is asking these questions – they are hoping most of us will cry out against these “jobs-killing bills,” and they can use our collective howl to give them the punch needed to overcome our liberal, our “progressive,” enemies. But think about this question! Who, in his/her right mind, in any other time in our history, would ask anything so crazy as “should we create jobs” when the jobless rate is so high and so many are drowning financially??? And “jobs-killing bills”? Who but a lunatic would sponsor bills that kill jobs? (I told you: Communists.) Come on! This is a no-brainer, isn’t it? To survive, we have to have jobs! Yet, in spite of all their rhetoric, our “progressive” leaders aren’t doing anything to solve the jobs “problem.” They don’t see any problem!
Then, the questionaire asked, “Should captured foreign terrorists be given the same Constitutional rights as American citizens?”
Okay, let’s take this apart. Notice the words foreign, and terrorists, and Constitutional. Dear reader, the Constitution wasn’t written for foreigners. Our Founders, unlike our (non)leaders, today, had no intention of creating a One-World Government! They wrote the priceless Constitution for U.S.! Foreigners in our country have basic human rights, of course, but no one but an American—and perhaps one who is on the legal path to citizenship—has Constitutional rights!!!!!
Then we have the word terrorists. We can think of words such as murderers, gangsters, the mafia, gangs, drug warlords, and others, that cause us to shudder, maybe even tremble, but the term terrorists brings alarm to us, and rightly so. Terrorists are mega-criminals; they cut a deep and a wide swath of terror wherever they show up.
To even toy with the idea of giving foreign terrorists Constitutional rights is insanity! It’s a kick in the face to those the Document was intended for. I’m fed up with giving “rights” to everyone but the honest, decent, law-abiding, American citizens. At every turn, we are being denied our basic inalienable rights that the Constitution was crafted to protect, yet they want to give those rights to foreigners and terrorists who are bent on destroying us.
We could put it this way: our (Marxist) leaders want to take those rights away from us, for whom they were intended, and then they want to give those rights to our outsider enemies! Incredible!
So, to sum this all up, I say again, no one in his/her right mind, in any other time in our history, would ever dream of asking if foreign terrorists should be given the same Constitutional rights as American citizens!
This survey would be a laughingstock if conditions weren’t so disastrous! It would be a comedy if we were not in the middle of such an incredible tragedy! And I’ve covered only three of the questions asked. The insanity continues; I’ll get to some more of it in my next post. Come back and read it—if you can stand it.
