Like Hitler and Stalin, you have a number of very bad people/orgainzations/movements/ideologies using one another in all of their aims to try and pull down the United States IMHO.
In the end, the fight is a moral and a spiritual one at its root. Basic, fundamental moral principle and rights against compulsion and control. There are many, many components from economics to education to politics to social issues, etc.
Like I said, if you fight for liberty, true liberty based on those moral principles and our unalienable rights...then you will be arrayed against all of these forces...whose strings are no doubt being pulled by, as Paul would say in the New testament, spiritual wickedness in high places.
Anyhow, as I said, I am focusing this thread on the trade issues...and how the so called free trade of the day is, IMHO, a sham that is hurting the free market and our republic.
I got off on the "Zionist" comment before I had a chance to comment on the trade issue. I agreed with what you wrote, it is a sham and is hurting our free republic.
I understand the spiritual wickedness more than I understand the parallel of this earthly realm. As you said there are numbers of very bad people/organizations/movements/ideologies using one another in all of their aims to try and pull down the United States IMHO. They are pulled together by evil that maybe they might not even understand. I personally believe that cults like “Christian Identity” and beliefs like this are part of the evil threatening are freedom.
All I know is that I want to be right on God's side, and this attitude coming from some who say they are not against the Jews, but really are is not on the right side. This is one of the reasons I separate myself from people who call themselves “patriots” but use terminology that I consider evil.
The other reason is political. Being from Idaho you might remember what happened to Larry Craig’s staff person after speaking to a crowd in Riggins. Some of these people used this kind of rhetoric and the press really tried to use it against Larry. Same thing happened to Larry Pratt ,(GOA), and the press used it against Pat Buchanan.
From the Idaho GOP Platform:
”We believe the effect of NAFTA, GATT and the World Trade Organization (WTO) on the Idaho economy has been negative. Therefore, we support favorable appropriate revisions to these treaties and organizations. .”
The Idaho GOP also passed a resolution saying the US needs to get out of the UN.
The language in the platform is not strong enough for me. And unfortunately until we get rid of the open primary in Idaho we will not be able to elect people who will respect he platform.
