I can't believe how quickly the constitution is being cast aside. America was born from conflict but that didn't stop General Washington from going up against impossible odds in 1776. Even then, they wanted him to be king, and he refused out of respect for natural law. True, people have been oppressed by some greedy politicians and businessmen. Those people suffered for the same reason people suffer today, disrepect for natural law. We want a government that adheres to the rule of law. Are we willing to put an end to the republic in exchange for a system that promises us everything? How does that saying go, a government big enough to give you everything can also take it away?

So, now that China and Russia are calling for a new world currency, should we keep on with the deficit spending? Do you think increasing taxes on a failing economy is going to keep up with the interest on our new loans? Do you feel confident that our stimulus packages are going to break the pattern that tax revenue remains flat regardless of tax rate or loophole closure? Do we really need the middle man? What's wrong with people just being free of oppressive taxes and re-instilling confidence in the American economy?

Right now, anyone who is "rich" is affraid to wake up in the morning to the newest dark-of-night legislation or mobs in front of their house. It's just a shame that all those "greedy" rich people (i.e. rich just means makes more money than you) create all those jobs when they should be working for the government with guaranteed retirement, great health benefits and stable pay. Too bad those jobs will become so menial, we'll have people sweeping dirt roads for a living. American innovation will shrivel and die on the vine. Can you name any innovative products coming from Canada, Sweden or Austrailia?

I think people are ready for a new election today, not after two terms. If the republican party would listen, they would delouse their party. They have to listen to us and stop listening to those who say the republicans need to be more progressive. I think deep inside you'd like to see an opponent worthy of your intellect.

The Republican party is so weak, as you say, they don't have the courage to defend the truth and rule of law within their own ranks. That's what we want, is a representative who doesn't roll with whims of moral relativity and corporate peer pressure. They need to have the courage to stand up and defend natural law and limited government.

Hadn't heard the whole saying but its part of human nature to deny responsibility.

Read about Kristalnacht. This was the night the Germans orchestrated a backlash against the Jews. Police and local authorities stood by and watched Jewish owned business get ransacked, across the entire country, as if it had been coordinated, which it was.
The Germans hated the Jews because of their money. Everyone in Germany was starving. Hitler needed a scapegoat. He found one when the young boy Herschel Grynszpan shot Ernst von Rath, a member of the Nazi party. Rath was posthumously promoted to high office in the Nazi party and a huge funeral was held in his honor. It was the excuse Hitler needed to start a full scale progrom against the Jews.

The finger of blame rarely points backwards. Who are we to judge whether these bonuses are appropriate or not? Yes, some of us are making sacrifices. Some of us are suffering severe trials. Why are we spending our energy pointing our fingers at others and not looking within ourselves for the solution? Your own personal stimulus package is between your ears, as Dave Ramsey said. What do you think businessmen are going to do when they start to fear people are going to come knocking on their doors demanding their posessions be turned over "to the people"? The little bit of prosperity we have in America will shrivel on the vine. This is setting a very scary precident. Who decides how much is too much? What about if a bunch of people decide to charge the local "snob hill"? I imagine that anyone with even a comfortable living is thinking they ought to prepare. We must be the peacemakers, with God's help. We need to pray for those who might wish to take from or harm us. We need to pray that our friends in the media are not successful at turning this into class warfare.
