The American Uncivil War

The seeds of discontent have already been sown. The divide between those who cherish true freedom and liberty and detest the intrusion of the federal government, and those who blindly follow an Obama administration ready to spend this country into an abyss of debt makes the Grand Canyon look like a crack in the sidewalk.

Fertilizing this separation apparently is the job of the leftist lapdog media. Journalism that presents facts and relates a true balance is long dead, while advocacy reporting by the leftist press has become blatantly one sided. The coverage of massive Tea Party protests this week, when not largely ignored, was reported with disdain and contempt. CNN’s Anderson Cooper, somewhat sober on this day, dismissed the protesters as a kook fringe of the radical right. He then went so far as to say the protests were “anti-CNN”. (They probably are) Throwing more dung on the growing discontent, US Homeland Security Department’s Janet Napolitano lashed out at the ‘radical right’ and said that US forces returning from the Iraq and Afghan wars were potential right-wing extremist recruits. Also ripe for being tagged as potential terrorists were gun owners and the tax protesters themselves. In his economic address on Tax Day the president decried the use of taxes as a political wedge issue “to scare people into supporting policies that increased the burden on working people instead of helping them live their dreams.” Obama’s words are chilling! Translated: “if you don’t agree with how I intend to enslave America you are going to pay for not bowing down to me”. Notice that if you protest unfair taxation you are essentially unpatriotic. If you don’t embrace socialism and an ever increasing federal government you must be part of the radical right. If you stand for the moral definition of marriage being between one man and one woman you are intolerant and guilty of a hate crime. If you are anti-abortion you are a potential terrorist. The Texas talk of sovereignty and state’s rights is just the beginning. The impact of the Uncivil War’s first skirmishes may not have been fully relayed by the mainstream media, but the new age of information flows on the internet. Until an oppressive government figures out how to filter it, those numbers of those who see the coming struggle to hold onto their precious liberties will continue to grow. Obama’s misguided and un-American demeanor on his recent European trip in openly showing his disdain for America is more than disturbing. His foreign policy talk on Iran and North Korea gives our antagonists the perception that America is weak and easily manipulated. This behavior has given true patriots yet more concern and reason to want to separate from a president and congress that is all too willing to dispose of the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights. It will only get worse. The divide will grow deeper and wider than most of us can imagine. And as you voice your disagreements with an out of control federal government and protest the immoral and unpatriotic actions of Barack Obama, you will be vilified by the leftist media, tagged as terrorists by Homeland Security, and told by this president that you are what is wrong with America. The Uncivil War is on!
