Our rights do not originate with government, but they are to be "secured" by government.

A Beginning or and End?

"That's what I will do in bringing all parties together, not negotiating behind closed doors, but bringing all parties together, and broadcasting those negotiations on C-SPAN so that the American people can see what the choices are." ~ President, B. H. Obama

Speaker Nancy Pelosi promised that this Democratic Congress would be: "The most honest, the most open and the most ethical Congress in history." ~ Speaker of the House, N. Pelosi

In light of how Obamacare was passed, the 13 State attorney generals who have filed suit against Obamacare on constitutional grounds, and the 39 states that have passed or proposed legislation exempting their citizens from mandated Obamacare, can anybody explain to me how Obama, Pelosi can be trusted to ever tell the truth?

Obama said that because of the passing of Obamacare that immediately children would not be denied coverage because of preexisting conditions. We soon found out that that is a lie, and that they can be denied just like adults until 2014. Even in victory he cannot tell the truth.

According to the polls a super majority (over 60%) of the people opposed Obamacare. Not oppose health care reform, but Obamacare, because it does nothing to curb healthcare costs, and only serves to put the government in control of the single largest and fastest growing segment of our economy, and does nothing to “reform” healthcare. Obama and crew have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that regardless of the will of the people that they will say or do anything to gain more control and power. The Federal Government now runs itself based on lies, fraud, bribes, and deceit.

The socialist policies of G.W. Bush lost the support that the Republican Party had of conservatives and libertarians. Under Republican control, the legislature adopted anti-competition, anti-free market, anti-liberty policies. They spent and acted exactly like liberals. By Putting up the anti-free speech pro-establishment socialist, J. McCain, as presidential candidate the Republicans insured that they would lose the last election.

Unfortunately (maybe fortunately) the majority of people in this country who just want the rule of law, and to be left alone to succeed or fail on their own, have finally woke up. The Tea Party movements, the anger expressed in Town Hall meetings, the huge number of demonstrators against more socialism, are all evidence. The government and socialists in both the Democrat and Republican parties vastly underestimates the resolve and anger of the people. For decades the people, have tried to ignore the government, as long as taxes were reasonable, and they didn’t mess too much with the economy, and left us alone, we tried to work and live without need or support of the government. The government has made it clear, it will not leave us alone, it will not honor the contract (the Constitution) that we established with it. On Tuesday, March 23rd, 2010, the Federal Government of the United States, declared war on liberty, you are no longer free to choose how to live your life, you are no longer free to choose what is best for yourself and your family. You are not even free to use your accumulated wealth, to prolong or improve your life in old age. Obama’s solution is that rather than get the operation that will improve your life, is to take a pain pill, and remain drugged up and out of touch till you die, that the government, not you, will determine what is best. Obamacare is the current highpoint of Marxism/Socialism in America.


Maybe the Russian Strategists that suggested the US will breakup into smaller nations was right, and what we are seeing it the beginning of the end of what was once the freest most prosperous and successful nation in the world. Even Pravda notes American capitalism gone with a whimper. If we see signs that the Federal government is trying to squelch opposing viewpoints by adding regulations to internet and/or radio, or signs that they are trying register and/or limit firearm sales to citizens (probably through UN treaties not US laws), or break their promises and increase taxes on the middle class, we may unfortunately see the start of the destruction of this once great country.

The Federal government both Democrat and Republican, have rejected liberty if favor of Statism and is willing to use force to make each and every one of us capitulate. Maybe the States lawsuits will prevail and the constitution up held, and these remedies for all liberty minded people should be sought and perused with vigor. But if (when) the tyranny that the Federal Government now exerts on the people is not stopped through normal legal channels, we must remember that We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.
