Dissent Is Not Allowed

We no loner live in times that allow us to shrug our our shoulders and say, "Naah. That could never happen here". We now live in times that force us say "I sure hope that ain't true".

I hate to sound like an alarmist, but ladies and gentlemen, the situation is dire. There's no nice way to put this. The Federal Leviathan is now targeting political dissenters with Stasi-like tactics. Case and point:

***

"Sen. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) proposed using the Internal Revenue Service to curtail Tea Party group funding during a speech on how to 'exploit' and 'weaken' the movement at the [$oros funded] Center for American Progress on Thursday.

Arguing that Tea Party groups have a financial advantage after the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision, Schumer said the Obama administration should bypass Congress and institute new campaign finance rules through the IRS.

'It is clear that we will not pass anything legislatively as long as the House of Representatives is in Republican control, but there are many things that can be done administratively by the IRS and other government agencies—we must redouble those efforts immediately,' Schumer said."

Then, there's HR 3878 that, if passed, will be used to classify unapproved political speech as "hate speech":

***

"Hate Crime Reporting Act of 2014 - Directs the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to update a report for Congress concerning the role of telecommunications in the commission of hate crimes.

Requires such report to include: (1) an analysis of the use of telecommunications (including the Internet, broadcast television and radio, cable television, public access television, commercial mobile services, and other electronic media) to advocate and encourage violent acts and the commission of hate crimes as specified in the Hate Crime Statistics Act; (2) NTIA recommendations; and (3) updates concerning the role of telecommunications in crimes of hate and violent acts against ethnic, religious, and racial minorities."

In other words, the government will decide you're a dangerous hatemonger if you have the Spauldings to write a blog against homosexual "marriage", allowing illegal aliens to invade our country, or dare to criticize a liberal who happens to be a minority. (Of course, if you throw some venom at a minority that has the nerve to believe in the Constitution, you'll get the Presidential Medal of Freedom.)

There's no longer an attempt to even remotely hide the Authoritarian Left's desire to silence dissent.

Isn't that right, Governor Cuomo?

***

"Who are they? Are they these extreme conservatives who are right to life, pro assault weapon, anti-gay? Is that who they are? Because if that's who they are, and if they are the extreme conservatives, they have no place in the state of New York because that's not who New Yorkers are. If they're moderate Republicans, like in the Senate right now, who control the Senate -- moderate Republicans have a place in this state."

And there's countless other instances how bad things have gotten, ranging from the DHS report that was accidentally leaked to the press in 2009 to the Southern Poverty Law Center attempting to sic law enforcement on Conservatives such as Pamela Geller and Tony Perkins in the name of "tolerance".

Even West Point has started to call Conservatives enemies of the state:

***

"A West Point think tank has issued a paper warning America about 'far right' groups such as the 'anti-federalist' movement, which supports 'civil activism, individual freedoms and self-government.' The report issued this week by the Combating Terrorism Center at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., is titled 'Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America’s Violent Far-Right.' The center — part of the institution where men and women are molded into Army officers — posted the report Tuesday. It lumps limited government activists with three movements it identifies as 'a racist/white supremacy movement, an anti-federalist movement and a fundamentalist movement.' ”

Folks, It doesn't get more serious than this. Add all of the above to the NSA spying on us and Chairman Obama constantly threatening to act without CONgress and We the People have a serious problem, and not one that can be solved with cut 'n paste solutions like "we need to elect more Republicans". The nudging of partisan politics has been replaced by authoritarian shoving. We're on the edge of political, economic, and social disaster.

God help us all.

“It’s a uniparty, and we need a second party.”

Agreed.

If you’ll note, aside from a chosen few, the Republican’ts have done NOTHING to oppose any of the horrors I’ve listed above. Instead, we have dopes like Peter King, Juan McLame, and Lindsey Grahamnesty wagging their fat fingers at us.

-D and -R no longer matter. It’s a battle between good and evil now.

Cue Hitlary’s screech.

[TheOldLady]

You’re exactly right, my friend.

I just posted this on another forum hope you don’t mind.

Thank you very much. What’s next - “What I Saw At the Coup”?

[Absolutely Nobama]

Pretty much, except Der Fuhrerette wants to dissent from the Constitution.

Thanks LJ. Always a pleasure.
