They hate us because we seek to hold them to the constitution.
This uncivil war we are about to enter will be one as old as History itself. It is government people versus the people. It will be the power of a now an almost hereditary political mandarin class running the show against the wishes of the People. Then a more than willing media turning into a Praetorian Guard enabling Owebama and his cult of personality, if only to justify their richness versus their progressivism, their white guilt, a real hypocrisy for which we all should suffer. Include now an indoctrinating progressive 'every child gets a trophy' 'education' under Federal government rules. We are on that slippery slope. We have a president who chooses which laws to obey and which to simply ignore with a wave of his chin thrust. He even manages to tinker with a bill he signed into law, his signature
piece de resistance, a piece of something else which neither he nor the Congress which shoveled him that piece of crap bill has ever read to this day. But no criticism. No because . . . racist. Just give the king what he wants. Mustn't keep his highness from his golf game. His closing down parks/memorials that are scenery, that have no facilities and are normally open 24 hours a day like any city street corner, is absurd and abusing power for thrill of the misery it can inflict. One more irony being it cost more to close the places down than it does to run them when the government is open. President Spending Priorities strikes again. Yet President Hissy Fit can do such a thing and it's all the Republicans fault because they won't give in to his temper tantrum, give him his 'clean budget'.
I never imagined I would ever see such events like this in my lifetime. Why does the TEA Party piss off all the right people? Because we are of the same stock, the same mindset that once said 'Screw King George'. Like I said, a rebellion/revolution as old as humanity. An overbearing and capricious government, and its fawning enablers, against the very people who pay for their misanthropic schemes. They fear us and do not respect us. A dangerous combo. We are their sworn enemy, those who believe in such niceties as Constitutional controls on power. Oppressive government versus the people's innate desire for Freedom. That's also many an historical lesson in their own right, such a lesson not learned being one fraught with serious implications for any society. How easy it is for many to give away their, and ultimately our, freedoms to the government. Shackles are also as old as humankind.
I heard a caller on a call I received. Don't know how, but I decided to pick up the phone and normally I don't, straight to voicemail. This time was a TEA Party Something telephone town hall. I came on as Cruz was speaking. Then he took some calls. One older woman, when she finally she realized she was on the air, sputtered in a thick East European accent, 'Do you know what you have here? Do you know, know what you have?' Then the call was an 'oops, we lost her'. Cruz then mentioned she's called before and was a survivor of the Holocaust. Too many are tiptoeing around the 800 gazillion dollar donkey in the room: That we've had a coup, aided by the mandarin class, cheered on by the Praetorian Guard media, and abetted by an education 'political correctness' mafia indoctrinating youth into the joys of big government, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm. As if an omnipotent government which can give you everything has never taken everything 'slip sliding' away.
I really hate interesting times.
