In the aftermath of the election of the first Kenyan-Indonesian, illegal alien President I must comment on the death of the American Republic as envisioned and enshrined in the founding documents of this nation. When Ben Franklin emerged from the first Constitutional Congress and was questioned as to what kind of government he and the delegates had decided, he stated, “A Republic, if you can keep it.“ During the 232 years of this experiment in self-government, Americans have demonstrated the capacity of a free people to prosper, to pursue happiness and to worship God who had created them and endowed them with inalienable rights which no government could take away. During these two centuries, when justifiable concerns were presented, the process of amendment woven into the constitutional framework allowed for those inequities to be redressed. For example, civil rights and women’s suffrage were incorporated into the original document and became part of the supreme law of the land.
So what went wrong? We have always had revolutionaries and contrarians. I can’t pinpoint the exact turning point, but I do know that the shift to embrace protected classes as more important than the majority redefined patriotism and those of us who love traditional values have been mocked, threatened, persecuted and scoffed.
In our fears, we the people have allowed leftists to discover a full range of new “rights” which they then affirmed with judicial fiats. At first it was the “penumbra” of rights in the 14th Amendment that allowed the Supreme Court to discover the right to murder babies in the womb and rename it a more sanitary “a woman’s right to choose.” This slippery slope led to, on Tuesday, another state created a right to murder anyone through “doctor assisted suicide.” Another state found another use for illegal drugs that could be legalized despite the mounds of medical research that shows otherwise.
Whatever caused the tipping point the result has been that the underlying formula of distinctive roles of the specific divisions within our constitutional system have been blurred. We no longer have the “walls of separation” among the judicial, legislative and executive branches of the federal government. We have also forgotten the hard won victory of the founders who in their foresight reserved the bulk of the power of governing to the “several states.” So within the Obama/Alinsky model of socialism now being sown into the fabric of our government, these poison seeds will soon sprout and grow as an entangling weed that promises to choke out any semblance of the original intent.
On Tuesday, 64 million “useful idiots” delivered the permission needed to complete the destruction from within. So as the 57 million of us who voted against the Marxist agenda watch, we wonder what the gleeful will do as policies are implemented that redefine our government which will include the “negative rights” to restrict speech, press, religion, trial by jury, or any other of our freedoms that interfere with the Obamaites desire to nationalize industry and seize wealth, including individual 401ks and annuities, for the “common good.” How will those who trampled on the flag and set fires as a means to celebrate the selection of Mr. Obama react, when his false promises to take care of all their needs are shown to be what they really were; nothing more than a cheap campaign trick to “buy” their votes?
Rest in peace, America. B. July 4, 1776 – d. November 4, 2008. May the story of the Republic survive as history and not legend. May some future generation be inspired by the testimony of this constitutional republic which embraced freedom and liberty, individual dignity and responsibility, and the acknowledgement of divinely given inalienable rights and fight again to restore what has been lost. Rest in peace, my beloved country.
