Ron Paul 2012, Rand Pau l 2016-2024

12 years is a good chunk of time to clean up at least some of the dung that the last century of constitution hating politicians (those who did not fulfill their oath to defend it) have defecated on the American social and political landscape.

The U.S. Constitution and We The People – Restore America!

For Freedom and Liberty!!!

“We hold these truths to be self-evident . . .”

In 1989, a series of revolutions swept through central Eastern Europe, as the peoples of Poland, Hungary, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, and Romania threw off the communist regimes that had held their countries in an oppressive iron grip for more than forty years.

Delivering his State of the Union Address in 1990, President Bush remarked on the stunning advances in freedom that had captured the world’s attention over the previous year. Here, he recalled an incident that took place in the midst of the revolution in Czechoslovakia. At a workers’ rally outside Prague, a brewery worker took to the platform and began to recite the words of the Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident . . .” Speaking to a crowd of more than one thousand workers he said, “Americans understood these rights more than 200 years ago. We are only now learning to believe that we are entitled to the same rights.”

Now… for the rest of the story.

A letter to my traitor

Lindsey Graham and Carl Levin NEED TO GO!!!  Let’s just get that out in the open. This is the way I feel, so I better tell you now! How long will the majority of Americans continue to sit on their hands and let DC strip us of our rights, liberties and freedoms!

You see.. it is not a Republican/Democrat issue, not a Left/Right issue…. It is a We The People subjected to the whims of an out of control, unbounded, non-accountable Federal Government issue…

A government who accepts no bounds, dispatches thugs to airports to deny The People their rights “guaranteed” by the 4th Amendment. The people are locked up just for mentioning or reciting it. Don’t question what the TSA’s ability or authority to do what it does.:

“We will have you arrested for holding up the line and disrupting operations”

Now we deal with this…

“Senate Votes To Let Military Detain Americans Indefinitely, White House Threatens Veto”

Every day there is a new violation of our rights as a People governed within the confines of the framework outlined in the US Constitution. It is the basis of the Government of the United States of America.  That government doesn’t bother paying attention to it. It formed a LIMITED GOVERNMENT and directs how our country’s government is to behave.

Republican and Democratic  Senators are trumpeting this legislation which contains sections aimed at totally violating the rights of American citizens to face their accusers in a court of law,  a trial,  or even the fundamental right of knowing what you are being charged with. The bill set to be voted upon is the” National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 (NDAA)”.

Under the totalitarian sections, authority would be transferred from the DoJ to the DoD.  If enacted, sections 1031 and 1032 of the NDAA would:

(1)  Explicitly authorize the federal government to indefinitely imprison without charge or trial American citizens and others picked up inside and outside the United States;

(2)  Mandate military detention of some civilians who would otherwise be outside of military control, including civilians picked up within the United States itself; and

(3)  Transfer to the Department of Defense core prosecutorial, investigative, law enforcement, penal, and custodial authority and responsibility now held by the Department of Justice.

Indefinite detention without being formally charged and being  subjected to interrogation by law enforcement agencies, is not something the People of the USA would ever think to be concerned with, but it is a reality. The Senate is in work now to get this bill passed, which would do exactly that; rob Americans of their constitutionally mandated protections.

This is supported by both parties, and thankfully opposed by both parties, as it should be. If there ever was a time for an expression of  Bi-Partisanship, the optimum time would be now as the two entrenched party representatives come together to destroy this “Enabling Act” which is being promoted by the likes of Democrat Levin and Republican Graham.

With the dawning of a new decade, the American People need to reflect on our past greatness, and the restoration of that greatness in the future.

The political systems in Washington, the  States, and our local governments, are infiltrated with those who would deny the people our country’s greatness, and its Beacon of Liberty which  has shone throughout the world since America’s founding.

Our country’s forefathers labored extensively to provide the people a government which would not be under the thumb of a central bureaucracy. Yet, since the turn of the 20th century, the elements of socialism, progressivism and Marxism have worked to undermine our own liberties and freedom, while having us concentrate on being the policeman, and caretaker of the world.

Our country has been stolen from us!

The People are no longer in control of the government. Special interest lobbyists pad the pockets of hired gun politicians who were placed there by the dollars generated from purchases by the American people. You buy goods, the company finds their  ” Golden Boy”  politician or party, and then fund them into a seat in our “republican” government.

These same politicians, once in the seat of power, lay out, propose, and vote in the agendas being paid for by their special interest financiers. The American people, who this so called “statesman” is supposed to represent, is ignored, even though its crys are heard loudly  and visually, even unto the steps of the Capital in Washington DC.

It is given to us the right, the duty, to call to account those who would bind us in the chains of tyranny. We are to work to identify the individuals, special interests, and lobbyists who are pushing us to be subjugated under the power of an ever increasing central government.

Our call to action is to unite with those who would fight for the cause of Liberty and Freedom. Align ourselves with  people working to identify and remove the sickness which has corrupted our political system.

Let us identify and support statesmen who will represent the People, and restore honor to the office  of those who would walk away from their everyday life with their family and friends, and would raise their right hand and swear an oath to uphold the U. S. Constitution.

Let us get representatives that actually work to fulfill their oath.

For Freedom and Liberty.
