Ridiculous isn’t it?
The video differs with reality at the end, we are not signing our names to the note, they are forging our signatures.
The comment on creating more income is not to our advantage because all that means is more taxes.
The solution is to cut spending and not engaging in more wars. That is what the majority of the American people want but it will not happen. This reinforces the view that we waste our time voting because no matter who we elect we are in charge of nothing.
The only person who offers this painful but realistic option does not stand a chance against the system. So when are we going to raise the conversation to this level so that the people can take charge?
TEN QUESTIONS FOR NEOCONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS
1. What is the difference in the Republicans raising the debt ceiling and the Democrats?
2. Should a generation that votes for perpetual war to police the world pay the costs of the foreign interventionism or should those costs be passed on to successive generations?
3. Does our constitution grant the federal government jurisdiction over education, energy, housing, food, drugs, healthcare, retirement, religion, labor, wages or charity?
4. Are the above mentioned areas in question three prohibited to the states?
5. Should the financial mistakes of one generation be borne by successive generations?
6. Is there any money in the Socialist Security Fund and what generation is responsible for the solvency of that fund?
7. Is the Federal Reserve, federal and is there a reserve?
8. Are the CIA, EPA, FCC, FBI, BATF and FAA constitutionally authorized?
9. Does the constitution authorize the United States to police the world?
10. Is Foreign Aid constitutional?
BONUS: IS THERE A DIFFERENCE IN A REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT AND A DEMOCRAT OTHER THAN POLITICAL RHETORIC?
Note: All questions are based on the original intent of the founders of our Republic. Read the constitution and reference The Federalist Papers for answers.
Lloyd, it is ironic to see that we meet at a place where those present allege to be defenders of the Constitution yet the majority behave as they could care less about it and are more interested in protecting their personal interests and ideology.
Our Constitution was abandoned decades ago and it would take all working together to restore the rule of law to our nation.
When are we going to start?
Inspiring and thought-provoking conversation!
Pedro,
You are correct. The reason we are failing as a nation is not because of the Democrats, but because of the Neoconservatives that control the Republican and Tea parties. They market themselves on conservative rhetoric only to duplicate the actions of the Democrats. At least the Democrats are honest. They admit that they will steal. The Republicans are deceptive socialists.
The solution is in education. We must expose and embarrass the neoconservatives that have been in control and educate patriotic Americans on the constitution, Austrian Economics, issues and candidates. Most candidates have a history that reflects their true colors.
The best organization that I know of is The John Birch Society which has been defending the constitution for almost 54 years. “Less government, more individual responsibility and with God’s help a better world” is our motto. “Education is our total strategy, and the truth is our only weapon” describes our plan. The society has a large research department that provides information to its members so that we can work within our respective congressional district to achieve constitutional government. I have been a member since the early 90′s and my father who serves on the national council of the John Birch Society joined in 1961. One of the biggest differences in the John Birch Society and many other conservative groups is our organizational structure and of course action. JBS provides education and a solution. Your understanding of the constitution and problems indicate that you would make a great Birch member. Please check out http://www.jbs.org and http://www.thenewamerican.org. Thank you for all that you are doing.
