"The average age of the worlds greatest civilizations from thebeginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years,
these nations always progressed through the following sequence:
From Bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to great courage;
From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to complacency;
From complacency to apathy;
From apathy to dependence;
From dependence back into bondage." -alexander Tyler (Lord Woodhouselee, alexander Fraser Tyler a Scottish historian/professor who wrote several books in the late 1700s and early 1800s.)
Over the next few months what we've become, as a nation will be very revealing. With america creeping towards the end of her cycle, between complacency and apathy, will we allow the ugly hand of apathy to stretch forth and grasp what may become our demise as a republic? How close are we to loosing our faith, courage, liberty, and abundance? There are some already who believe we must take things away so we can get back on track, all in the name of ability and need. Does it seem america is already clutching dependence and creeping close to bondage? Have we bought into the lies that come with dependence on government to care for all our needs? Is bondage knocking on the door of the red, white, and blue? More over, are we willing to accept bondage again?
There was a time in our country when those who believed in socialistic, or communistic ideals where either quiet in their beliefs, deceivingly wove them into speeches of promise or added them as an addendum to a bill. Now they freely espouse them, with no fear of someone questioning them or retribution.
It would seem that america in present state must be in the stage of complete apathy. Otherwise how was it possible for Sen. Hillary Clinton to have been so emboldened to state unequivocally at a fund raiser in late June for Sen. Barbara Boxer, that cost $10,000 a plate the following, "Many of you are well enough off that...the (Bush) tax cuts may have helped you. We're saying that for america to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good." Sen. Clinton didn’t sugar coat it, she didn’t dress it up and make it sound pretty. There were no words of deceit coming from her lipsshe told the truth. and all those in attendance cheered her. Did no one at the fundraiser ask, what 'things' she was in reference to? What 'things' are we going to have taken away from us? Who decides whose 'things' get taken? Who decides how much of our 'things' get taken? Who decides when we've had enough of our 'things' taken? What are you going to do with my 'things' Hillary and the Democrats who are now lying in the same bed of Marxist Manifesto proclamations? But most of all, why did all those people who attended the fundraiser let her get away with placing all of us back into bondage?
Where is the outrage over the Marxist Manifesto rising in america? Or has america become too much a part of, "From each according to his ability. To each according to his need."? - Karl Marx
as if the red colored flag Sen. Clinton is waving isn't enough to scare you out of apathy, we also have U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson and her 11 Democrat cohorts in Congress requesting that the United Nations watch for "questionable practices" in this year's U.S. presidential election. Excuse me, did I miss an announcement from Kofi annan that the United States was no longer a sovereign nation, and we now belong to the United Nations of Global Social Democracy?
This half baked dozen said they were afraid of a repeat 2000 election, since it was in the last election we had the hanging, pregnant, improperly handled chads of the voting cards, which were recounted four different times. These Democrats who feel that traditionally minorities vote Democrat don't want another repeat of uncounted votes because of faulty voting machines and improper instructions. We can all agree we need to be sure all legal american citizens, who desire to vote, that there must be easy and understandable access to the voting cards and booths. as well, I am sure the Democrats don‚t desire to discount some of the military votes like they did last time either.
The 12 Democrats wrote a letter to U.N. President annan stating their deep concern, "that the right of U.S. citizens to vote in free and fair elections", may be again in jeopardy. Who ever thought giving america's voters the right to cast their vote over to an international institution, that is not accountable to the american people, was the way to solve their fear of uncertain chads? We now have chadaphobia, so the Democrats who signed this letter must be having chadisms, poor dears.
I have to ask the 12, Eddie Bernice Johnson of Dallas, Jerrold Nadler, Edolphus Towns, Joseph Crowley and Carolyn B. Maloney, all of New York, Raul Grijalva, of arizona, Corrine Brown of Florida,Elijah E. Cummings, of Maryland, Danny K. Davis, of Illinois, Michael M. Honda, of California, and Julia Carson, of Indiana-remember their names- how is it as a member of Congress, someone sworn to uphold the Constitution and elected to represent her people, that you would even consider the sacred act of america's core, voting for our President, to be judged by any other form of government or body of people?
Our circle is quickly coming to bondage. When the Democrats will no longer try and hide their true agendas but will blast them from the pinnacle of asinine doctrine, and no one seems to care enough to call them on the carpet for it, we really have settled our fat lazy butts too far down into the sinkhole of apathetic bondage. Tell me, how are we going to like being tied up and for how long will we tolerate it?
Wake up america, your Republic is under assault! If you desire safety and sovereignty for yourselves and your children, practice allowing your abundance to take on liberty. Let your liberty stand for courage and let the strength of your courage complete its fulfillment of spiritual faith. It's the only way we can stop the bondage some are suggesting for americans. Save your freedoms, fight with conviction, and put an end to the cycle we are sliding down, before it's too late.
