Amen to that. Because the media belongs to the CFR, because George Soros bought the democratic party, it will appear as though our views are 'extreme', when, in fact, all we are doing is supporting government as the founding fathers saw it when they so carefully constructed 3 branches of government--and all those checks and balances.
Who says anything has to be 'fair and balanced'? What the heck is this...FOX NEWS?
No, this is FREE REPUBLIC. Read my lips--the US is not a democracy, it is a REPUBLIC. Those of us who understand that, congregate here. Those people who do not, attack with ridiculous demo-blabber.
The Founders of our great nation never intended America to be a democracy. It is a republic. Article IV, Section 4, of the Constitution says, The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government.
Not only did our Founding Fathers establish a republic, they greatly feared democracy. James Madison, known as the father of the U.S. Constitution, wrote in "Essay #10" of The Federalist Papers: "... democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths."
Although such an attitude will surprise most Americans, it is accurate.
The United States Constitution does not contain the word "democracy". It does "guarantee to every State in this Union a republican form of government...." Also, when we recite the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag, we say, "to the Republic for which it stands," and not "to the Democracy."
The difference between a republic and a democracy was once widely understood in America. The U.S. War Department (superseded by the Department of Defense) taught that difference in a training manual (No. 2000-25) published on November 30, 1928. This official U.S. government document, used at the time for the training of American military personnel, said of democracy:
A government of the masses.
Authority derived through mass meeting or any other form of 'direct' expression.
Results in mobocracy.
Attitude toward property is communistic - negating property rights.
Attitude toward law is that the will of the majority shall regulate, whether it be based upon deliberation
or governed by passion, prejudice, and impulse, without restraint or regard to consequences.
Results in demogogism, license, agitation, discontent, anarchy."
It went on to state: "Our Constitutional fathers, familiar with the strength and weakness of both autocracy and democracy, with fixed principles definitely in mind, defined a representative republican form of government. They 'made a very marked distinction between a republic and a democracy and said repeatedly and emphatically that they had founded a republic.' "
So people who come here to do some blasting lib style and don't understand these fundamental principles ought to step off.
