The Coming of an American Reichstag?
Canada Free Press ^ | March 25, 2010 | Douglas J. Hagmann

...According to this source, who agreed to speak to this writer under the strict condition of anonymity, “a ‘watch list’ has already been created that specifically names and turns their focus on various pro-life and tea-party organizations and individuals who are considered a threat to domestic security, continuity of government operations, and to the lives of lawmakers and their families.”

While published reports confirm that Capitol Police have been contacted and are addressing security concerns of lawmakers and the incidents of vandalism, the involvement of federal agencies has not been publicly disclosed, nor will it likely be on any official level. The reason, according to this source, is that high-level discussions between top lawmakers and agency heads are “exploring the application of the Patriot Act against any right-wing individual or group that poses a danger to government operations.” He added that “threat assessments and security measures for public assemblies at the Capitol, specifically focusing on conservative groups are being re-evaluated at the request of the White House and Democratic lawmakers.”....

Where is the horse and the rider?
Where is the horn that was blowing?
They have passed like rain on the mountain, like wind in the meadow.
The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.
How did it come to this?
How… did it come… to this?

When there’s nothing left to lose, courage is easy.

The dems were surprised to learn that America won’t go down without a fight. We’ve been mostly dead all century but there’s a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. They can’t go through our clothes looking for loose change yet, and they don’t like it.

Warthog-faced buffoons.

“The point being: when the left is in power, it is FAR FROM UNREASONABLE that they will concoct threats from “right wing hate groups” in order to try to suppress legitimate conservative dissent and activism.”

For sure. Hell, they whine like stuck pigs, claiming that someone on our side called Barney Frank a fag. This makes many of us cower, terrified and hoping that one of us didn’t do such a terrible, impolite thing to one of our respected, elected officials. Just another method of mind-control from our friends on the Left.

From an old thread with a booklet from 1939 about FDR and the New Deal. This is a “brief” excerpt (caps are mine). The ENTIRE booklet could have been written yesterday!!

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2185147/posts

PROBLEM SIX THE DOMESTICATION OF THE INDIVIDUAL

....But it was as if in every case the question was, “Which course of action will tend more to increase the dependence of the individual upon the Federal government?” .....

No individual life escaped, unless it was that of a desert rat or cave dweller....

When New Dealers speak in one breath of a welfare economy and with the next breath bitterly denounce pressure groups it may seem that they involve themselves in an ironical dilemma. It is easy to say: “What would you expect, since you have made division of the national income a matter of political bargaining where before it had been always a matter of economic bargaining?”

Yet they are right, the New Dealers. In the welfare state pressure groups, representing willful political action, cannot be tolerated. THEY WILL HAVE TO BE SUPPRESSED at last, because in the welfare state the government cannot really guarantee social security until it goes to the logical end, which is to ration the national income in time of peace just as all goods and satisfactions are rationed in time of war.

Declaring martial law on some pretext, would the be last act of an American president.

I say things in jest, but the situation is deathly serious. You know, I disagree with Glenn Beck on a lot, but he does say one thing I agree with. You have to know your history or you won’t recognize the game being played around you. It’s the same game that’s been played throughout history but with different causes and faces. The end result is the same; the loss of Liberty. I’m a student of history, Wiggen and I can tell you, this game does not end well. We’re heading down a very dark road and most people have no clue as to what is coming.

Look at the title of the article. It wouldn’t be just a pretext like a coffin on some law maker’s front lawn.

A Plea For Free Speech In Boston - 1860

“...Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one’s thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down. They know its power...”
Frederick Douglas

I’m a threat to Domestic security because I threaten to VOTE.
