Who Are the Uninformed?

While
more minds are open and searching for truth than may have been evident in our
recent past, let’s take advantage of the opportunity to plant some more seeds
of truth in the garden of knowledge, shall we?
We are supposed to be a nation that has awakened or is awakening to
facts and history that haven’t been at the forefront of social and political
thought for decades. If that is true,
then we might just have a chance of fighting what has taken the place of
knowledge and common sense for a very long time.
We
had an election recently that, if nothing else, should have reflected the fact
that conservatives wanted the people’s House back more than the progressive
liberals wanted to run it. The
progressive liberal president went on record saying that this just means that
his side has not done a very good job of explaining what his agenda is all
about. We’re just uninformed, don’t you
know?
Then
he hopped on the people’s jet, taking a whole bunch of other planes, equipment,
and people, bought and paid for by the taxpayers of our country, and set out on
a ten day excursion of the Orient – at a cost to the taxpayers that boggles the
sane mind. Once again, he thumbed his
nose at the “uninformed” little people.
Just
the military equipment and personnel alone that had to be uprooted and
reconfigured to insure his safety on this trip causes a rational person to
scratch his head in wonder at such arrogance.
His
explanation? To open up new markets for
American products and services – essentially putting Americans back to
work. Who among you newly “awakened”
Americans really believe that?
At
the end of the day, (actually the 10 days) all we got for our huge investment
was this arrogant fool practically laughed off every stage where he spoke, but
you won’t hear that truth from most folks.
The
thinking that drives the progressive liberal philosophy being played out in the
current administration’s agenda, with which there can be no compromise, is a
recipe for disaster if it is not stopped in its tracks. There is NO common ground. There is NO win/win negotiation that can be
concluded between conservatives and liberal progressives. Their thinking is flawed and it’s all been
tried before.
Diehard
Democrats, who still think they represent the party of the people, are the
truly uninformed ones. Their party was
infiltrated and successfully taken over decades ago. While the Republican Party is still in the battle for its soul,
it remains the only hope for party sanity that our so-called two party system
has. All the other “third parties” that
have sprung up over the years have for the most part done more harm than
good. They are either way out in the
realms of extremism, or they are cobbled together to represent a dangerous
acceptance of the “other side” philosophy riding the political fence. Those that carry such reasonable sounding
names as “Constitution Party” to name just one, are merely redundancies of the
Republican Party’s platform, and as such allow more corruption within that
party. Just ask any RINO to justify
many of the stances he takes on certain popular issues and see if the platform
would hold up the answers. Uniformed or
blissfully ignorant? Sometimes it is
hard to tell.
The
stories being spun to “explain” the 2010 midterm elections are many and varied
because when truth has been ignored for as long as it has in this country,
that’s what you get – analysts wandering around in the dark, bumping into each
other with accusations of which is the proper way to the light! Accusations! It is all being done to divert focus from the side effects of
said election. Those side effects run
the gambit from over-confidence to miscalculation and downright denial of
truth.
Take
the tea party movement for instance – while the progressive liberal media and
political elitists alike try to “bag” the tea party as both guilty of wins and
losses in this election, (weird) they still don’t grasp what the tea party is
all about. That is partly the fault of
the movement itself. Those of us who
followed the explosion of this grass roots phenomenon remember that, like it’s
predecessor, the Boston Tea Party, it was all about excessive taxation without
representation. The acronym, (Taxed
Enough Already) has all but been forgotten since those “oh so clever” liberals
attached the vulgar term, “tea baggers” to the movement.
If
any of those aforementioned “uninformed” are paying any attention at all, take
note – the key to saving this republic is simple:
Get regulatory government toned down
and off the backs of the people.
Stop dreaming up ways to control the people through taxation
and/or the promise of “tax cuts.”
Stop degrading the family, which is the backbone of our
civilization, through regulation, taxation, and out of control legislative and
judiciary tyranny.
See
how simple that is?
If
these things were done, the awful damage done to the economy and our monetary
system would heal itself in short order.
It is called, a free capitalist system that works - supported by a moral
majority that buys into our founding principals.
Progressive
liberalism has been on a back burner in this country for over a century now,
and occasionally it boils over and messes up the whole stove. It’s about time we took the lid off that pot,
cut the heat to it and dumped it instead of just trying to clean up the mess it
makes. The truth is that most of the
people who buy into progressive liberalism are the truly uninformed. They don’t realize that they are just
puppets being controlled by adherents to the tried and failed philosophies of
socialism, Marxism – communism – let’s cut to the chase, shall we? Ignorance is their most prized
commodity.
Some
of us learned the evil lessons of communism in our youth and never forgot what
it is all about. I find it appalling
that we don’t even adequately teach this stuff any more, and that many who once
learned about it have forgotten the lessons or choose to ignore them. Ignorance.
Communism kills everything it touches.
One can never be free and be a communist. There will always be someone higher up on the ladder of power
that is more free than you are.
Communists are skilled at offering up figureheads that either appear
benign or downright heroic in their skill to lead the masses toward prosperity. If that figurehead is also a bungling
dunderhead, what can we expect the supposedly uninformed to conclude? Surely not that THEY are the stupid ones!
Two
more years of this guy might just kill this republic – but only if the
uninformed are truly stupid.
