God handed down the truth and the devil said, “Here, let me organize that . . .”
“The sky is falling, the sky is falling, give us your tax money and shut your mouth!"
While today’s Democratic party leadership might get credit for saying, “Never let a decent crisis go to waste, invent one, if you really need to!” It’s clear that with Chicken Littles like Obama Science Czar John Holdren on their side, climate alarmism has become the mother of invention. Back in the mid- 70’s Holdren was already warning that we needed to cut emissions to avoid the onset of a human-created ICE AGE! Public policy emergencies are imminent, they cried, government intervention is required immediately to drastically limit the population to prevent this global-cooling disaster.
In a book, “Eco-Science,” which Holdren co-authored with the infamous Ehrlichs, draconian population measures such as mass sterilizations (via secret addition of chemicals to the drinking water); forced abortions; and mandated medical sterilizations of certain populations (eugenics) were all advocated as reasonable means to carry out the necessary population control that might save us from global-cooling and all sorts of other population-driven disasters the trio saw coming our way.
The inconvenient pseudo-science behind global-cooling was that smog-like emissions were making the earth’s atmosphere “opaque” and preventing sufficient sunlight from reaching the planet’s surface. Now, of course, the alarmist’s party line is that “oops, we missed on that one, but we got this one right: the earth is heating up due to proliferation of green-house gasses and the planet’s entire ecology is at risk. Our only logical step is to immediately begin population control measures such as . . ." etc., etc., etc.
All the poor ill-informed greenies who KNOW, just KNOW that global-warming is a scientific fact and inescapable without massive government interventions are all pawns in Barak Obama’s power struggle. Obama, as is clear to anyone who read his first book “Dreams from My Father,” is a Marxist. He sees the U.S. Constitution as fundamentally flawed and the country’s long successful history with free market capitalism as an abomination. Cap and Trade; Obamacare; “creating five million ‘green-tech’ jobs; all the stimulus funding and soon coming back to ask for more stimulus funding; moving the national debt up to 225% from where it was when he took office just 9 ½ months ago . . . it’s all about . . .
-
1. More government power Can I get a few "Hallelujahs" on that, Brother?
-
2. More government control over the economy
-
3. More government intervention in every aspect of our lives
-
4. More redistribution of wealth
-
5. Immediate socialism and moving toward a real Marxist government by the time he’s served two terms
-
6. In short, the green and other emergencies (Swine Flu, etc.) besieging us on all sides are just convenient ploys to allow the government to step into our daily lives and jettison the U.S. Constitution.
One of Obama’s biggest obstacles to carrying out his mission is barbaric and antiquated ideas we Americans have toward the notion of private property. According to Adam Smith, “Give a man a 7-year lease on paradise and he will turn it into a desert, but grant a man a life-time lease on a desert and he will turn it into an Eden.” In other words, property ownership is one of the truly good things in this world according to Smith because it motivates people to improve themselves and their lot in life.
Through the “magic of bigger government," Barak Obama seems hell-bent on destroying all wealth and redistributing it and gradually eliminating old-fashioned concepts like private property. As his father, Obama, Sr. is quoted in “Dreams from My Father,” “There is no reason that tax levels must be limited, 100% tax is feasible, so long as privileges commiserate with contribution are granted.” In other words, you do a good job for Obama’s USA and the government will grant you the right to drive one of their cars, live in a nicer one of their homes, etc., etc.
Unfortunately, most people, don’t know history very well. When it comes to most folks' understanding of what's happened and what's been written . . . it’s as if God handed down the truth and the devil said, “Here, let me organize that . . .” and the people took their cues from the devil’s interpretation of scripture. The inconvenient truth about free-market capitalism being the most successful economic system ever and a libertarian government (a Republic run democratically) is corrupted by the silver-tongued Marxist devils organizing “Das Kapital” and other abominations while hiding behind euphemistic phrases like “redistribute the wealth.” Just as in George Orwell’s “Animal Farm” the final truth the Marxist devils will leave us with is this: “Freedom is Slavery.”
Well, the dreams of my fathers (the Founding Fathers) included a revulsion toward the nightmares of higher taxes, big government, government intrusion in business and personal affairs, Nanny-statism, and government denying freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of expression, and gun ownership -- all stuff Obama favors. They fervently believed that the government was best which governed the least and that individual freedoms and responsibilities go hand in hand. The dreams of my fathers are living compacts that explain why Barak Obama in less than ten months deserves the title the worst president in United States history . . . .
Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,
