The last time I checked we live a free society. The only way we will remain free is to not only stop this onslaught of continuous new legislation to regulate us the way they see fit, but we need to overhaul the government in a big way. I don’t mean fundamentally change it either. I mean restore the system to what it started out as 234 years ago. Elected officials who spend most of their time living at home and go 3 months out of the year to make legislation. With our technological advances it isn’t even necessary for them to go to Washington anymore. They could conference call from their town hall while the constituents listen in and give feedback.
We have a representational form of government. How much do think you are represented when the average congressman has 500,000 constituents. States play districting games depending on which party is in office so it leans one way or the other. They come home to town hall meetings and make comments like it is their town hall meeting and they’ll run it the way they want to. We should petition the ratification of 50,000 population limits that is in the constitution but never ratified. We should be repesented from our local neighbors who go off for 1 term and come back sending another of us to Washington. That was the vision of the founding fathers. Not a lifetime job where millions are spent to get elected. If we do a complete turnover every 2 years they’ll spend so much of it trying to figure out what they are supposed to be doing they won’t have time to be telling us what to do.
We need to mandate that the federal government does what it is good at, defending the nation. End of sentence. We don’t need Cap and Trade based on faulty science. We especially don’t need it being dictated by the President in an end run when Congress doesn’t pass legislation by telling the EPA what to do. We don’t need Health Care that is done by one party behind closed doors and voted on by representatives who never read what they are voting on. We don’t need representatives that say behind closed doors when they think nobody can hear them that it doesn’t matter what the Constitution says we can do anything we want.
Americans don’t offer lifetime appointments to elected officials and they should quit trying to have them. If you don’t believe in the Constitution don’t run for Federal Elected Office. We are a Constitutional Republic so quit calling us a Democracy cause we’re not. If your hero is Mao Tse-tung, Che, Karl Marx or any number of other Socialist ideologues and you hold Federal Political Office, we the tax paying citizens of American would be more than happy to give you a one way airfare to an appropriate regime more suitable to your convictions. But be it now known we will not tolerate you fundamentally changing our nation.
We will use our first amendment rights to practice our religion and free speech to speak out against those who would do harm against our nation. We will exercise our 2nd amendment rights to bear arms and maintain state militias. Just so you know the founding fathers intent for bearing arms and militias was to protect the states from those who would corrupt our government and try to change it. We are watching and are willing to defend our Constitutional Republic.
We stand against the Progressive Movement. You apparently haven’t learned from history or you wouldn’t publicly proclaim yourselves as progressives. Americans are just as much against the movement now as they were 100 years ago. We’re not interested in being nudged. We don’t want to be like Europe, if we did we would go live there. Clearly it’s not working for them so we’re not interested in any new imports.
I don’t know what your political persuasion is, I had always thought I was a Republican but recently found out I’m a libertarian. It really doesn’t matter what party affiliation you are any more as the people trying to take over the country aren’t that anyway. So if you like being nudged and thought of as a stupid idiot who can be easily controlled then go ahead sit back in your recliner they’ve got you covered. But if your tired of where America is heading then prepare to do something in November, turn them all out of office and replace them with Constitutionalist Candidates. Candidates that believe in the Constitution of the United States.
