"Give us your tired, your poor and your huddled
masses, yearning to get something for free. Send us your homeless, your
deadbeats, your freeloaders, your peasants, your indigents, your murders, your
terrorists, your rapists, your psychos, your drug lords and druggies, and those
stricken with TB, Ebola, Cholera and Small Pox. Pray be that they all be
Democrat voters and it's OK that they don't speak English. I lift MY lamp
beside the golden door and say, LET THEM ALL IN no matter what it costs because
we are a compassionate nation ….. to a fault."
Emperor of the U. S. of America, his heinous,
Barack Hussein Obama
For over 100 years the
Democrats-Liberals-
Almost the entire news media, 100% of
academia and over half of the American people support their radical
ideology. They beat the Republicans over the head with compassion.
They empty the public treasury pandering to the tens of millions of people that
have now grown dependent on government's compassion. Americans are being
drowned in the black, smelly, expensive ooze of irrational compassion and the
taxes to pay for it all, pre-empting other funds for vital national and state
services.
The Republicans have been cowed into
silence and have become virtually impotent for fear they will be negatively
painted as being against compassion for all human beings, including illegal
aliens ….. no matter what the cost. It makes no difference that the
country has been bankrupted by the word compassion and its draconian unintended
consequences. Compassion has come at a huge cost in the trillions of
dollars and the dividing of our society along financial status, language, racial
and ethnic lines. It has become a virtual war of the producers versus the
takers, white versus black, rich versus poor and man versus woman, aided and
abetted by Democrats using "compassion" as the fulcrum and the people's money as
the lever ….. for votes.
If you are against compassion for
all, as implied by the scriptures, (and the
Democrats) you are mean spirited, you hate people, you are angry
white men and you are against all races, creeds, ages and gender. You have
no right to exist. Your opinions are without merit. Your principles
of financial and economic security and stability and military superiority are
old fashion and out of date. And of course, according to the Democrats,
these principles conflict with their definition of compassion and get in the way
of its funding.
Yes, we are one of those
mean-spirited conservatives that realize we are in a full lifeboat and the
lifeboat can't handle any more people, until those trying to get on board
(legally) can pay their own way. Those of us in the lifeboat don't
want 20 million anchors hanging around our necks that we have to carry on our
shoulders while the boat is sinking. We call it the survival of freedom,
liberty, sovereignty and our very culture. The Democrats and the complicit
news media call us hate mongers and bigots.
The arrogance of the
"compassion" argument by the Democrats is epitomized in the words spoken by
Senator William J. Fulbright when he gave a speech in 1961 to university
students: "The President is our moral teacher and our leader. He is
hobbled in his task by the restrictions of power imposed on him by this
antiquated document. [the
Constitution] He must be freed so that he can do for us what
he knows is best." This is the mindset of the Democrat elite, like MIT Professor
Gruber and President Obama who want to fundamentally transform America into this
radical ideology based on the irrational definition of compassion without regard
to the cost.
And for the Democrats, "compassion"
IS best because it buys the most votes. The Democrat's idea of
compassion is what has driven us into the New Deal, Social Security, the Great
Society, Medicare, Medicaid, farm subsidies, 80 different welfare programs, an
impediment to marriage, Obama Care and now legal status for millions of illegal
aliens who break our laws. But worst of all, irrational compassion has
given us $18 trillion in debt and rising rapidly. It has also given us
over $100 Trillion in unfunded liabilities. From where will that money
come? If it all, it will come on the backs of the producers in the form of
draconian taxes. As always, the takers get a free ride.
[And Veterans are not
takers, they are the defenders of our freedom and deserve every benefit and
support a grateful nation can give them. Unfortunately, illegal aliens get
better treatment than our Veterans.]
Obama's argument to unilaterally
grant legal status to 5 million illegal aliens is couched in the words
compassion and scripture. But hidden behind the words is the real agenda, MDV,
"More Democrat
Voters."
Obama has clearly violated his oath
of office and broken the law by his own words. He should be impeached, as that
is the only just solution to his lawlessness under the constitution. For some
reason, the Republicans have taken impeachment off the table. But, if they
don't impeach him, the next president will have his or "her" powers expanded by
Obama's illegal precedent. It turns out that if the Republicans don't stop him,
the door is open for a dictator to take control of America. Or perhaps, one
already has.
Legal Americans cannot violate the
law without facing severe penalties or jail time. Why is it that
government can reward a huge class of lawbreakers using the law and the American
people's money, on the flawed rationale that there are too many of them to
deport? President Eisenhower solved the illegal alien crisis. Why
can't we do it now?
Do your really want to put a stop to
illegal immigration? We'll give you one idea on how to enforce the law
that the government won't, by triggering self-deportation. Every legal
American who knows of one or more illegal aliens living in America, should "rat"
them out. Take pictures of them and send the pictures, names and addresses to
the authorities and the newspapers. Every legal American who knows of an
employer who is employing illegal aliens should report the fact to the
authorities. Then, put all the information on Facebook and Twitter.
Finally, once and for all, CLOSE THE DAMN BORDER!
Once the illegal aliens know they are being
ratted out by legal Americans, they will begin to self-deport on their own
because living in America will become unfriendly and hostile, as it should be
for illegal aliens. We send criminals to prison because it is punishment
for criminal behavior. Prison is unfriendly, hostile and just, for those
who break the law. Why should illegal aliens be any different?
Harsh, you bet? No, it's not
compassionate and NO, we don't like the idea either! But if the government
won't stop this insane madness that legal Americans must pay for, maybe the
American people themselves can. Generosity and compassion must end when
our own needs aren't being met.
Nevertheless, we are not holding our breath
that legal Americans will do anything about this issue because most Americans
fear government, instead of the other way around. It remains to be seen if
the remaining people who cherish freedom will do anything to reclaim their
birthright from those who are obsessed with irrational compassion ….. at any
cost.
Sadly, the people are just not engaged on a
large enough scale and of one mind to change anything. It appears they
don't think we are in a serious war of ideologies where freedom and liberty are
pitted against compassion and growing enslavement. Those who believe in
irrational compassion, no matter what the cost, appear to have won this war and
they did it with your money and with your tacit approval. They have won
this war to the detriment of American freedom, liberty, property rights,
sovereignty and our collective bank account. Rest assured, there is no way
"We Can Get to Freedom on the Compassion Plan."
On the off chance that there are some of you
who are not afraid to take a stand against Obama's and the government's tyranny,
you can make your voice heard by signing our petition "Declaring Open
Resistance"
against those in government that have grown corrupt, abusive, arrogant, lawless
and out of control. We have already made our Declaration on numerous
occasions to many high-level politicians. Yes, we are on government's
radar.
However, if you fear government, or you are
shaking in your boots because you might draw government's attention, we don't
recommend it. Like illegal aliens, hiding in the shadows is always
safer. Government will never find you. Unlike hiding in the shadows,
defending freedom is always fraught with risk when you come out in the open and
"Declare Open
Resistance"
against government.
But remember this, fear gives a coward a
reason not to act in his own defense
.
AND, ignorance is not a defense when the
THREATS to your life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, that you refuse to
acknowledge, reach out and tap you on the shoulder ….. and they will and they
are.
