It’s The
Politicians Stupid!
Back when Bill Clinton ran against Bush 41
his main battle cry was it’s the economy
stupid. What he was able to do was convince the people of this country that
we were experiencing the worst economy in 50 years. The truth was that we were
in a mild recession and not headed to ruin. Yet with the help of the main
stream media he was able to convince a nation that his false premise was a
fact.
Well, I think that it’s high time that we with
the help of the new media change some other false premises. One being that it
is the fault of a run away judiciary that is threatening our liberties and the
second being that it is the greed of our seniors that is causing our problems
with social security .Let me explain. My favorite person in the new media is
the pioneer himself Rush Limbaugh and one of the things that he loves to do is
challenge peoples false premises. So, here we go.
Last Monday while listening to the Rush
Limbaugh show the subject Walter Williams was discussing with his guest was judicial
tyranny. They were talking about the Supreme Court and some recent rulings
where justices have not only changed laws to fit their strange beliefs, and
disregarded States rights and their Constitutions, but also were legislating
new laws from the bench instead of interpreting the Constitution.
This last year we in Massachusetts were
assaulted by our State Supreme Court when Justice Marshal and three rogue
judges TROUNCED our liberty when they commanded our State Legislature
to construct a law allowing Gay marriages. Stories are popping up all over our
country of judges who are assaulting our Constitution and our rights and
changing the make up of this country by judicial fiat.
Well, that begs the question why? Why all of
a sudden do we find our very freedoms at risk from these rogues in our
judiciary? Do you think that they have suddenly appeared? The answer is no,
they have always been with us. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams knew that there
would be bad judges appointed to the courts and were very concerned about their
threat to our nation. John Adams had article 8 the bill of address drafted into
our State Constitution for that very reason.
There has been land mark rulings handed down
by the Supreme Court in the last thirty years that were unconstitutional, Roe
vs. Wade for one. How about forced bussing and racial quotas and what about the
Florida State Supreme Court rewriting election laws in the middle of an election!
It was during their discussion I yelled at
the radio it’s the GUTLESS POLITICIANS
to one of their points and that’s when I realized that the premise was wrong. It
is clearly the responsibility of our Legislature at the State and Federal level
to write and enact Laws. No one else is given that right under our Constitution
so if some one else is taking on that right it must be because of the neglect
of those given that right to do so. Our gutless representatives that we our
selves have sent off to public office have miserably failed us! I would suggest
that our founding fathers would be quite dismayed at the mess we find our
selves in yet would quickly point out that it is our own fault because we let
them get away with it!
Later this week I was
listening to Rush talk about the social security debate that we are all
embroiled in. He went on a rant against the senior citizens who he implied are
sitting back and demanding the workers of today to pay their way into
retirement. That this was nothing but a welfare and entitlement program that is
old and broken down and why should people who are going to retire expect us to
take care of them?
Well that’s when it hit me. I
don’t except the premise that it is the fault of our seniors. It is the fault
of all of the GUTLESS POLITICIANS
who over the last fifty or so years have refused to do their jobs! They have had no intentions of serving
their constituents. They have become nothing less than self serving leeches
with only their own profit in mind. All of these years they have been depleting
the balance of money in the social security system, stealing it to use in
unrelated areas, that’s right stealing. Try going into work tomorrow and take
some cash or a check to buy groceries for your neighbor who is in need and put
an IOU in its place and see what happens to you. You’ll be charged with a
crime, stealing even though you tell them it was for a good cause.
The problem with Social Security is not that
there is a hoard of retirees who are sitting back waiting for their big
entitlement checks to roll in. The problem is that my father now in his
seventies had over his working years put a good chunk of cash into a system
that politicians embezzled, and now that the system is in chaos it is some how
his fault. A third grader could tell you what is wrong with the Social security
system IT’S THE POLITICIANS STUPID!!!
When are we going to hold these gutless leeches
accountable for their actions? I am convinced that at this time in history
where power in Washington has changed hands it is the perfect time to get the
word out to the people of this country that when it comes to what allies us as
a Nation
IT’S THE POLITICIANS STUPID !!!!!!!!!
