Well here we are, it's 2010. "Judgment Day" for Congress is only 10 months away and the rats are already scurrying for cover ie; Byron Dorgan and Chris Dodd. They know that the exterminators are coming. Last year was an awful year and I'm not counting on this year being much better until November. The next 10 months are going to be alot of work. For me, it will be writing articles and continuing to involve myself with my own state Republican Party and the local Tea Party movement. This is on top of regular life duties, but I love every second of it, because I feel I am part of a movement that is going to save America from it's internal enemies. Everything we are doing is nothing compared to what the brave men and women of our military services are doing in Afghanistan. It is our duty to do the work here so they, the "Brave", have a "Home" to come back to. We will not let them down, because God and everyone else knows they have never let us down.

     This next election is one of the most important elections in our history and I know it goes without saying of course, but I am going to say it over and over again this year. We cannot forget, in the next ten months, that the Democrats want us to be a Marxist state controlled by them and that they have legislated to achieve that end. We cannot forget that government intervention into our lives on the scale that it even presently exists is intolerable and unconstitutional, and what the Democrats propose to do would send us on a path to complete destruction of everything that has been accomplished in the history of this country. I can't imagine what the Founding Fathers would think of the federal government as it operates now. I think Thomas Jefferson would be appalled by the encroachment of the federal government, on states and personal rights. James Madison the "Father of the Constitution" would be appalled at how phrases in the Constitution have been used seize the very power that the Constitution gives to We The People and the states. George Washington would be appalled by politicians pushing to be rulers rather than representatives. The Founders would not recognize this federal government. They went to war with England over less oppression than we are experiencing.

     We will not forget what happened in 2009 because it has frightened us to the core. I have never felt like this about our government in my life. I remember the feeling I got when I realized that despite a nearly 2 to 1 opposition to government health care that Congress was going to shove it down our throats and tell us we were going to get it anyway and that we should praise them for doing it. The Democrats attacked us and called us potential domestic terrorists. That frightens me to no end. That statement made by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security coupled with the power that the Democrats are hurriedly attempting to seize is a huge red flag for me. That kind of power would give them ultimate control over every aspect of economy, society, and our people. Possessing that kind of power ultimately leads to the suppression of dissent and that my fellow Americans is a totalitarian existence. Immediately, Thomas Jefferson and his quote about fearing government and tyranny came to my mind.

     "When the government fears the people there is liberty, When the people fear the government there is tyranny"

     Let that fear sink in and turn it into action. I have been informing everyone within earshot. We all must be the Paul Revere of our own area of influence. Make this last year's experience become a history textbook moment. Explain it to the ignorant and kick the laziness from the apathetic in your life. Teach your children how close we came to losing everything to tyrants like Obama, Reid and Pelosi. We MUST stay engaged with the same fervor that led 80 year old seniors to protest at Tea Parties. We must be the anti-NEA teachers for our children. We must get people to think logically and see the fear that we see. We cannot rest for one minute until the leftists are driven from government and our liberties restored. We must demand that the bureaucratic quagmire in Washington is dismantled and that all three branches of government are returned to the enumerated, not assumed powers, stated in the Constitution. 

     We The People can turn this moment in history into a great moment in American history by turning a complete 180° direction course change from tyranny to liberty. The momentum and the overwhelming majority of Americans are on our side. The true Marxist/Alinsky leftists are a very small minority. "Well Michael if that is the truth then why are they in power?" They are in power because they lie very effectively and convincingly. They are masters of propaganda because they have to be to succeed. Conservatives do not need to use propaganda because we tell the truth and use logic not emotion to explain our points. We have the example of America to use as proof of the success of Conservative philosophy. They pretend to be like us but do not act like us when in power. Ben Nelson from Nebraska and Blanche Lincoln from Arkansas are two prime examples. 

     "Democrat" is now a dirty word to me. It symbolizes anti-American thought and activities at this point in history. There is nothing "Patriotic" about the Democrat party whatsoever. In fact since the days of Woodrow Wilson the self proclaimed "progressive" Democrats have been nibbling away our freedoms and working toward complete control. Entitlement programs are the prime example. The Democrats emotionally pitch them and then enslave you to the government with the implementation of them and the mandatory taxation of everyone to support them. "How does that work?" Look at how many people depend on Social Security to sustain them in their retirement years. They have the seniors right where they want them. Let them have that control and they will have you where they want you too. "Well I don't count on Social Security anyway" Great, but you still had to pay into it. Wait until they mandate that you use the government services. Mandated health care is what they are forcing on us right now. You will go to jail if you don't buy their health care. So much for Obama's promise of you'll be able to keep what you have. 

     If leftists honestly believe that Marxism is the best way to govern, then why not say that? Why not articulate your position and let the people decide? The reason they don't articulate their positions truthfully is because Marxism is not better for the people, it is better for them. The Soviet Union was a Marxist state. What happened to them you say? They ended up collapsing when the people finally had enough of the shortages in food and medicine and toilet paper and every other necessity that the government is charged with supplying in a Marxist system. The leftists hate our society and believe the only way to change it is to subjugate the population through government and change society by law and force. The example of this is the 4 or 5 states that allow gay marriage. All of these states have gay marriage because of politicians not the people of the state voted for it. Every time gay marriage is left to a vote it fails by a landslide. The leftists have been incrementally working on this takeover for decades and must be stopped. We are not going to allow that to happen and if it does there will be a civil war. However, that said, I know that Americans that elected Obama for the most part had no clue how radical he really was. This will teach them to not get caught in the hype and to do the necessary research before they pull the lever. I believe it was Plato that long ago, paraphrased by me, said "People that refuse to engage in politics are bound to be ruled by the inferior".

     Keep a sharp eye for leftist tricks. They will do anything to minimize the damage. Including changing laws then changing them back to help them politically. Chris Dodd a leftist crook Senator from Delaware is not going to run in November so that another Democrat that has a better reputation and a lead over Republican challengers can keep the seat for Democrats. Don't fall for this or let your family and peers fall for that. Democrats are all the same now, no matter what they tell you to their face. There is no "better" Democrat they are all liars. "How can you paint with such a broad brush?" Answer this question for yourself. Why would anyone that cares for the Constitution run for office representing a party that has pushed for Marxism? They have all been shown to follow the party line even after campaigning and promising to be Conservative on this issue or that issue. I do not and you should not trust them ever. They will lie to you every single time. Do not trust everyone just because they have an "R" after their name either. Arlen Specter, Colin Powell and Tom Ridge are examples of people with and "R" that lie and do the work of the devil with a "D" in their hearts. Make sure you do your research and make sure that your candidates are Conservatives and have always been Conservatives. Conservatism is the founding ideology. Conservatism is America.

     We have them on the run. Lets make sure the door hits them on the way out. Let's do this for our children and our grandchildren. Let's do this for the memory of the Founders and for all of the men and women that gave their lives to preserve our freedoms. Let's do this for America.
