I have the great pleasure and honor to know and work with some very amazing people. They are Americans, just your basic American. What makes them so amazing is that their dedication and passion to their ideas is spent tirelessly in ways to stop our government from spiraling totally out of control.
We are facing today, much the same type of elitist government disdain for the people, that our forefathers faced from the King of England. The difference we face is that the Americans of today are too worried about gas prices, stocks, the new "American Idol", and video games to look up and take notice. We take for granted that we are a super power, so no one will ever defeat us. We also take our freedoms for granted and laugh off any idea that we would ever fall from within. People take little notice to the power advertising and media have over us. Our basic American traditions are under attack in most every venue of public life, and even in our homes on a dialy basis through mediums such as television and the internet.
Our children are not safe from pornography in their own bedrooms or classrooms. How on earth have we come to a place where intelligent Americans have actually been convinced that teaching sexuality to 5 year olds is not only acceptable, but a good idea for the "betterment" of society? A football coach can use the name of Jesus Christ as a swear word, and any complaints seem to come from Christian Nazi Religious Zealots from the Right Wing Church of Hate, yet if the same coach were to bend to his knee and use the same name in Prayer he is a threat, offensive, and on his way to a courtroom for the sake of "diversity" and our "right not to be offended?"
It is high time we get back to the basics in this country. Our voice in our government has been choked by lobbyists and courtroom blackmail by the likes of the ACLU. Our Representatives in Washington have created a country club of rich elitists appalled by our common sense and amused by our lack of nuance. In light of all this- I would like to call three excellent links to your attention.
Please take the time to view this video:
The Declaration of Independence
Then take the time to read The "Congressional Code of Conduct." I believe we should embark on a movement to demand all our Congressmen to sign this document and set it as the basis for their service.
Lastly, I suggest we join together in support of passing the following Bill into Law.
