For those of us who believe in American exceptionalism and individual liberty and freedom, the results of the mid-term election have validated our belief in our fellow citizens.
This has been, up until November 2, 2010, a dismal twenty months.
The people of the United States have seen their President go around the world denigrating the sacrifices that have freed untold millions, and belittling the American inventiveness and can-do spirit that have made lives better for virtually all peoples of the world.
The Administration and the 111th Congress have unleashed a torrent of spending threatening to inundate present and future generations with unsustainable debt -- resulting in a dramatically reduced standard of living and subservience to those who hold our bonds and do not have the nation's or its citizens' best interest at heart.
The passage of the health care reform act galvanized the still-unconvinced that President Obama, his fellow travelers in Congress and the media were only interested in controlling the day-to-day activity of each of us, and not in truly reforming the health care system.
As Election Day approached, many of us refused to despair about the future, but instead we chose to take matters into our own hands, and turn to the mechanism bequeathed to us by the founding fathers to begin the long journey to repair the damage that has been wrought by those entrusted to serve the people.
Some months ago during an interview on a radio talk show, a caller asked if I knew of any nation in the history of mankind that had ever successfully emerged from the financial and societal abyss into which we were entering. I replied that I did not; however, if any country in the history of mankind could, it was the United States.
We could, as we have a written Constitution with a mechanism to allow us to do so, and a unique and fiercely independent American character.
The Constitution is the answer.
“The people of the United States have seen their President go around the world denigrating the sacrifices that have freed untold millions...”
I really, truly, deeply despise him and everything he stands for. And the disgusting America hating, unwashed and unclean rabble with which he surrounds himself. No threat or anything ... I just wish he would vanish.
It was a mistake to give up on America just because they voted for Obama. They weren’t voting for a European welfare state.
“The Constitution is the answer.”
We are not going to enforce the Constitution with only one party willing to play ball. Having constitutional government half the time is as good as having it none of the time.
We must find a way to enforce the Constitution all the time with or without the cooperation of the power hungry politicians in Washington D.C.
Logically this solution can only come from a group that is self-interested and capable of defending limited constitutional government on a constant basis.
In revering our Federal Structure and history it seems rather apparent that this group is the States.
Me too.
He is such a shameless p.o.s.
And he is milking the system for all he is worth with his international luxury gallavanting.
Hussein knows he is probably on short time, so he is getting what he can while the getting is good.
The Constitution only words when it’s upheld and respected.
The Constitution only works when it’s upheld and respected.
It will be fun to see the European reaction to Tuesday.
