Gee, no sh . . . . . kidding!

While Rule of Law is far from perfect, unless strictly adhered to, what then remains is Rule of Man - government by whim of the political class.

The rule of man assumes that man knows what is best for man. This, however always means that a few fallible men seem to know what is best for all mankind.And libtards believe that they are the ones that know best. And what they know is that the state must guide and shape man in their own libtard image.

We are fast approaching a 1776 moment. The time for beginning a reissue of the Declaration of Independence was a couple of years back. Even Caesar did not want to destroy Rome and this POS kenyan has made it clear that is what he wants. He has styled himself more as the new Fuehrer, with his cult of personality and use of dictatorial powers.

Piss on him, his National Socialist Democrat Party, and piss on all democrats.

Been coming for a long time. No republic in the history of man has survived for more than a few centuries. The only real question is what or who will take over our current form of government? With the current crop in our political class, I’m thinking we’re headed towards a fascist regime, with a communist backbone, basically a smaller version of china. Or we might end up like south africa or zimbabwe.

Perhaps an examination of the underlying principle of America's Declaration of Independence and Constitution might help to shed light on its problems today. The following essay can be downloaded here. It highlights the difference between the founding idea of individual liberty and other ideas which place government over people.

"The Unique Idea"

Our Constitution embodied a UNIQUE IDEA. Nothing like it had ever been done before. The power of the idea was in the recognition that people's rights are granted directly by the Creator - not by the state - and that the people, then, and only then, grant rights to government. The concept is so simple, yet so very fundamental and far-reaching.

CREATOR

People

Government

America's founders embraced a previously unheard-of political philosophy which held that people are "...endowed BY THEIR CREATOR with certain unalienable rights...." This was the statement of guiding principle for the new nation, and, as such, had to be translated into a concrete charter for government. The Constitution of The United States of America became that charter.

Other forms of government, past and present, rely on the state as the grantor of human rights. America's founders, however, believed that a government made up of imperfect people exercising power over other people should possess limited powers. Through their Constitution, they wished to "secure the blessings of liberty" for themselves and for posterity by limiting the powers of government. Through it, they delegated to government only those rights they wanted it to have, holding to themselves all powers not delegated by the Constitution. They even provided the means for controlling those powers they had granted to government.

This was the unique American idea. Many problems we face today result from a departure from this basic con­cept. Gradually, other "ideas" have influenced legislation which has reversed the roles and given government greater and greater power over individuals. Early generations of Americans pledged their lives to the cause of in­dividual freedom and limited government and warned, over and over again, that eternal vigilance would be required to preserve that freedom for posterity.

Render unto God what is God's.
Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's.
Sometimes Caesar due an ass kicking.

It isn’t the rule of man that we need fear — laws are written by man.

It is when the rules are established by A Man (or small cadre). Be it Unconstitutional XOs creating illegal branches of government and opening the borders to all comers, when we go from Constitutional Representation to Fascism.

Tell your kids the final straw of liberty was in 2008. It started with the 16th and 17th Amendments, accelerated downhill while the Great Society was built and has now hit the wall.

And the rule of man is equal to Nazi Germany. The communists controlling government have a hard grasp on America. Lets turn that around.

Allowing people to become career politicians and bureaucrats to be represented by unions are the main problems.

We have the tyrannical rule of man through selective law enforcement.

Since king barry picks and chooses which laws will be enforced and which can be broken without penalty I suggest that we do the same.
