Political ponderings some more, May 2013

Panic Attack Wednesday: As Mady and I studied American History this year, we had a blast! Until we got to 1st Continental Congress, the sending out of the men to determine if their states were for independence, THEY ALL WERE, Jefferson's writing of the Declaration of Independence, and the culmination of it all at the 2nd Continental Congress where they worked through all the kinks. At that point in our studies, my heart sank a little. Whats happened to us patriots, I pondered...The Declaration states 7 main points, and as the Redcoats (enemy) walked about raging war in the 13 colonies on behalf of the Crown, these men were not afraid to read in the streets with the liberty bell ringing in the background, in more understandable words: 1) that all men are created equal 2) all men have certain rights that cannot be taken from them 3)  among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness

4) Governments are instituted among Men to PROTECT the people 5) the power of the government is determined by the people 6) if at any time the government becomes destructive to the people, a new government will be created 7) men have the right to establish a new government...

I got disheartened because folks cling to the "we cant go by that, they were hypocrites" instead of "Wow! those are powerful words we need to remember." Folks, if you can't look around and see that we are living in the midst of a future communist/socialist society, you are blind. I don't care if you are a raging die-hard Democrat, what is happening is NOT okay, please tell me you can move past your love for Obama, and admit that the shiz we are encountering is totally "UnAmerican." These last few months have spoken to me exactly where we are headed and I HATE it! I am certainly NOT  a Republican, and had I voted, I probably-eerily now-would have supported Obama. But, my eyes are opened! I am not afraid to scream, look around you!! They are monitoring every move you make,  they limit your use of weaponry,  big gov. crimes are being committed and when made public-those "whistle-blowers" have to hide, spend life in prison--or mysteriously die! And some of this population dares to call them traitors--hello! they are telling you TRUTH that the gov does not want you to know!!! Innocent people are being killed in wars that are only happening to support big corporations, soldiers are dying for BANKS, in places we are not wanted, the Boston Bombing suspect was shot and killed w/o a fair trial-where is innocent til proven guilty-and due process-- people were actually cheering that dude was killed-I was more like-wonder what he knows--- this is not okay! People, this is so not okay.  Think back, the Government is here to protect us, we are the power-givers,  we have the RIGHT to stand in the streets and call for a NEW GOVERNMENT, we have the right to CREATE a new government. This government as it is now, will continue unless we throw our hands up and walk away! There are too many takers, and not enough givers, heck, even our politicians tend to be takers!!! And quite scandalous, not just affairs, but like big money under the table to vote one way or the other! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! See, back to my whole point, 1770's-here we had the enemy lurking in the streets on Colonist's soil. Farmers, doctors, store-owners, political-philosophers, dropped what they were doing and the put up a fight, physically and in writing. There were no political parties, just a group of folks who said-we will NOT stand for this tyranny ANYMORE.  Do you see it? Do you see that we have to find a way to do the same thing. We have an enemy too, it's called Big Government, enemy-as it sits this very moment! When will we stop all this vote because of party, vote because of race, vote because of gender, and for real decide that this system we have is in control of us, and that is NOT what was supposed to happen. 

:( Can we call for independence from our own government? Any ideas on where to start a nationwide movement of folks ready to CREATE a new government. I'm serious, I don't want this downward spiral to continue and I just wonder, can you see it? Even Democrats-do you see this or have I gone mad?!
