American Tergiversation

Hello my fellow patriots and concerned Americans. I come to you again with a pleading case to open your minds and look at the world around us, to seek out the truth, and to stand up against the current tide of apathy that is sweeping our country. I will not waste your time with inutile personal observations or arguments, so lets get right to the facts.
Tensions rise in Asia as the North Korean Communistic regime of Kim Jong-Il performed a test of its long-range Taepodong-2 missile on April 5th, followed by its second nuclear test in less than three years on May 25th. More recently North Korea has sentenced two US journalists to 12 years in a prison labor camp, for committing hostile acts against the Korean nation and illegal entry to the country. At every turn North Korea is becoming more and more hostile towards the United States and towards South Korea, issuing a no-sail threat that any vessel within 160 miles of shore will be fired upon. North Korea has also threatened to launch an intercontinental ballistic missile if the UN does not apologize for its harsh reaction to the April missile test. A madman with a stick of dynamite, lighter held at the fuse, North Korea is in a downward spiral of unstable aggression.
Three months ago the Federal Reserve announced a 1.2 trillion dollar spending plan to lower mortgage rates and breathe life back into the housing market. With rates climbing higher and the U.S. Treasury debt increasing each day, it seems the plan has had the opposite effect on the economy. The White House estimates the government will incur an unprecedented 1.8 trillion dollars of debt by the end of the year, over four times higher than last year’s all time high. The Federal governments’ solution the increasing debt and economical recession seems to be either printing money from thin air, or to just keep spending money. When you’re in debt, the logical way to get out is to just spend more money, right?
As California struggles to overcome a 24.3 billion dollar budget deficit, the state is contemplating the complete removal of its welfare program. The state would save an annual amount of 157 million dollars by cutting its primary welfare program CalWORK. In the words of Margaret Thatcher “The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money”. Although unemployment is at an all time high, and many families are struggling to make ends meet, the government was not put in place to support you.
With the economy still struggling, the War on Terror continuing, a mad man in Korea threatening our country, and the slow federal takeover of the free market expanding, President Barack Hussein Obama has been busy oversees, apologizing for Americas actions in the recent years, making statements about Americas “7 million and more” Muslims, a number far from true by any calculation, referring to the US as a “Muslim Nation”, and quoting the Quran in his recent Middle Eastern and European road trip. What happened to the Christian base that our country was founded upon? Americans continue to lapse in tergiversation, abandoning the cornerstones of belief and freedom that this country was built on.
As usual there are dozens of other issues that we could go on about for days, such as the Federal Government takeover of GM, the global warming scam that has mushroomed into the Presidents cap-and-trade program, the list goes on and on. We are faced with a government no longer run by and for the people. A country that is turning its back on Christianity and any sense of morality. A country that takes its opinions from propaganda under the guise of “An Inconvenient Truth”. A country where more people voted for the American Idol finally then for the President. A country where the national Anthem words were changed at a Lakers game.
As for me I believe in something larger the just the United States, or in the Stars and Stripes that we pledge to. I believe in Freedom, and Democracy, in a Nation under God, and in the beliefs and convictions that our forefathers shed their blood for. The day my country no longer operates under the founding principles that I believe in, is the day that I can no longer give fidelity to the President that is steering our country down this path. I stand today not for the United States, but for Freedom, and for the beliefs and laws that my forefathers established this country on. I do not commit treason, I am a revolutionist.

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. –Thomas Jefferson
