“You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.” — Abraham Lincoln
In the face of plummeting popularity ratings, the acting president clearly should heed the wisdom of his professed hero, Abraham Lincoln. Stalin and Lenin, his formative heroes, did not possess such wisdom and so championed an historically failed form of government. ‘Bama must also learn three other facts of life if he expects to complete even one term in office, much less win a second.
1. His power is limited. He has already exceeded those limitations and the people have taken note. His authority derives from The Constitution, not from his cronies in Congress or his radical political affiliates. Where does a public servant get the audacity to dismiss the C.E.O. of a private sector company like G.M.? Our government works for the people, not vise versa!
2. The American people are uniquely resilient and will stand for seeing their rights trampled only so long. We will not simply roll over for a petty, would be dictator as others have done in darker corners of the world.
3. Actions have consequences. Elected officials serve at OUR pleasure and that includes the acting chief executive. ‘Bama is becoming ripe for impeachment and has, evidently, only begun to violate his oath to “Preserve, protect and defend”. That’s The Constitution folks, not just a list of suggestions.
For more than 230 years the thread of freedom that binds America has been handed down from generation to generation. It will not be broken! The following videos say it all most eloquently, please listen:
Remember to make yourself a sign and head for a Tax Day Tea Party near you on April 15th. The freedom you save may be your own!
