Add Taxation Without Representation to that New Declaration

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Back in March, I wrote a new Declaration of Independence. Amazingly enough, it was almost identical to the original except that the specific grievances were updated and were significantly more egregious.

That was just two months into Obama’s assault on America. We had already tasted the results of his contempt for this country, but the breadth and depth of his loathing could still only be discerned from his books and past speeches. His imps, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, had been running roughshod over the United States Constitution for a couple years before the puppet master took their strings and solidified their attacks. Then the immaculation of Obama (as Rush Limbaugh so aptly dubbed it) has congealed all of the anti-Americanism that has been oozing through the 1960’s radical and radical-wannabe classes for generations.

Since laying out that declaration, we have been treated to an openness in Constitutional contempt from our Democrat congressmen and other officials like this country has never seen before. Our elected officials are not confining their anti-Americanism to off-the-record remarks and denials, even when their own video slips out. The response to our Tea Parties, the way they handled we, the people at their August town hall meetings, their refusal to even hold town hall meetings or their attempts to hide behind electronic filters, and their lockstep regurgitation of DNC talking points instead of addressing real questions were all illustrative of their disgust with America as it was constituted.

Our Democrat leadership is now openly anti-American, and the so-called Health Care Bills have really illustrated the situation. Both my Democrat freshman congressman and my Democrat senator (no need to name names - they’re all the same) have openly admitted that they do not plan to represent their constituents, but instead intend to represent the B. Hussein Obama in direct violation of their oaths of office and, of course, the Supreme Law of the Land.

My congressman (since I cannot refer to him as a representative) actually wrote to me, in response to a letter pointing to the unconstitutionality of his positions, that he feels he will be measured based on whether or not he acts, not on whether his actions are legal or not. He understands that most people out here are either not paying attention or are too ignorant of our founding or our history to even recognize that he is urinating all over the Constitution. (Thank you Jimmy Carter et al for nationalizing education and replacing true education with Marxist indoctrination.) In other words - we, the people, are just too darned stupid to be paid attention to. Damn the Constitution, full speed ahead.

These are just two of 535, far too many of whom share their contempt for America as constituted. It should now be absolutely clear, even to the mainstream press, that our Democrat officials have absolutely no intention of representing their constituents. Support for Pelosicare and Obamacare is approaching the approval rate of Congress, yet our “representatives” are open in their refusal to consider their constituents’ views. Taxation without representation was a significant trigger for our founders to rebel against the most powerful military on the planet. Our arrogant “leaders” are openly telling us that they do not intend to represent we, the people, as they add tax upon tax upon tax. We can therefore consider everything they do to be Taxation Without Representation!

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, …

To secure these rights, Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. Clearly then, Governments which refuse to acknowledge the consent of the governed have no desire to secure these rights … these UNALIENABLE rights. Who elected them “our creator?”

That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

It is time folks. It is time to abolish this current form of Government, which is clearly destructive to these ends, and to institute a new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and … well … and simply reinstating the United States Constitution as our foundation. We don’t need a new government. We just need a return to the one stolen from us by a decades-long encroachment of government tyrants.

Obama has called for a new foundation and has declared that he finds fault with the Constitution because it limits government and prohibits tyranny instead of requiring tyrannical control of the populace. It’s time that we, the people, stand up right in his face and tell him that we will not tolerate his tyranny any longer. It’s time that we, the people, stand up right in his face and tell him that we demand a return to Constitutional governance. It is time that we, the people, stand up in the face of ALL of our Government officials and tell them that we will no longer tolerate unconstitutional attacks on our freedom!

Let “No Taxation Without Representation” once again be our rally call. The spirits of our founders are watching. Will we honor them by upholding their foundation, or will we feebly sit around watching a contemptuous bunch of anti-Americans replace the foundation of our fathers with yet another failed Marxist state?

This is OUR TIME!

“No Taxation Without Representation”

No…Seriously…foreign AND Domestic…

Sunday, November 9th, 2008

Before taking office, United States Senators swear an oath of office that says:

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

Support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

For the last 20 months or so, Barack Obama, United States Senator from Illinois, has been traveling the world, telling everyone all the little things he hates about America and getting elected as its President. He laid out an agenda, virtually every line item in which violates the Constitution he is already sworn to support and defend, and he is even on record saying that the United States Constitution is fundamentally flawed and complained that it prohibits rather than requires government tyranny!

…as radical as I think people tried to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical.  It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, as least as it’s been interpreted, and Warren Court interpreted in the same way that, generally, the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties, says what the states can’t do to you, says what the federal government can’t do to you, but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf. And that hasn’t shifted.

Following his friend Bill Ayer’s language in asserting that his Weather Underground did not go far enough in their domestic terrorist attacks, Obama says the Warren Court did not go far enough in destroying the Constitution! We must “break free” of the US Constitution because it prohibits tyranny (”says what the states can’t do to you, says what the federal government can’t do to you”) instead of REQUIRING tyranny (”but it doesn’t say what the federal government or the state government must do on your behalf!”)

THAT from the man who is already sworn to support and defend the Constitution he says he thinks must be gutted, the man who blind adult adolescents elected to wipe their little tushies as President, and who will soon take an oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States,” EVEN AS he plans to do the exact opposite!

The United States was founded by brave men who entered into armed rebellion against the strongest military in the entire world over excessive government tyranny. We were long known as the land of the brave for a reason! Our founders pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor and broke ties with their government because of a level of tyrannical control that would today seem absolutely inconsequential. All of the grievances over which they went to war together would not amount to a small percentage of today’s taxation alone! And that would ignore the tremendous indirect taxation that comes from mountains and mountains of regulations from non-governmental agencies which have the power of legislation and which increase the cost, and therefore the price, of everything. It would ignore the direct government interference in our day-to-day lives, from the amount of water we can use to flush our toilets, to the light bulbs we can use, to the questions we can ask potential employees in an interview, to the enslavement of our producers to our welfare-recipients!

Still, even looking at today’s tyrannical interference in virtually everything we do, we have elected Barack Obama and his agenda which seeks to fix that Constitutional flaw that fails to require totalitarian control over we, the people! Obama created a new website, www.change.gov, with the title “Office of the President Elect.” When it was developed (clearly after last Tuesday’s election, through Friday of election week, it laid out his plan to enslave our children, increase government’s interference in everything imaginable, gut the military, and functionally destroy what our founders created. Interestingly, as of Sunday, that section of his brand new website has been removed and replaced with another campaign soundbite essentially saying “trust me, I’ve got it all covered.”

Given that Barack Obama has very clearly proved that he IS that domestic enemy to the Constitution of the United States, that he himself, along with all other congressmen and senators, and every man and woman who ever served in the United States military, is sworn to defend us all from, HOW in the world can we permit him to put his hand on another Bible on January 20 and lie that he

“solemnly swear[s] (or affirm[s]) that [he] will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of [his] Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

There is still time to once again declare ourselves “The land of the free and the home of the brave,” stand up and acknowledge Article VI of the US Constitution which tells us that the Constitution and laws made in pursuance thereof are the “Supreme Law of the Land,” and block that anti-American from taking an oath he expressly plans to violate from the very beginning.

It is incumbent upon President Bush to finish his term by preserving, protecting, and defending the Constitution of the United States from our domestic enemies the way he has stood up to our foreign enemies. There is still time, but time is getting short!

Regardless of the approach, or even whether or not Bush acts, this country is facing violence specifically because Obama was permitted to take his anti-Constitution, anti-American campaign as far as he has. There are still quite a few Americans who consider this the land of the free and the home of the brave. There is going to be violence if Obama and the Democrat congress is permitted to officially enslave us all to Government. Let’s side with a preemptive strike in the name of preserving America over the retaliatory revolution that will come from making us all slaves to a tyrannical government.
