Washington Betrayal

As the American people stare down the barrel of so-called "healthcare reform," it is tremendously important that we take heed of how Progressive Democrats are going about achieving their long sought-after goal. It has been an ugly and often times unconstitutional process consisting of the bribing of Senators with taxpayer monies (the same taxpayers that overwelmingly oppose the bill), the bartering of favors by the White House, and the threats of withheld support for Democrat candidates by Pelosi, Reed, and even Obama hiself.

Congressional leadership has not only violated their Oaths of Office to uphold the rules set down in the US Constitution, but they have demonstrated, in no uncertain terms, that they hold it (the covenant between the governed and their government) in contempt. By blatantly employing tactics that literally ignore specific mandates set forth in the Constitution, they are proving beyond all doubt that an ideologically-driven coup is taking place in the United States of America.

We are at a very important moment in time; a crossroads for our nation. We must decide if we are a Constitutional Republic or whether we are an oligarchy. We must decide if we are governed by the rule of law – constitutional law – or by the ideological whims of an elitist class.

I, like most of you believe in the rule of law, the rules set down in the US Constitution. There is no doubt in my mind that it's Founders and Framers had it right and that James Madison was more intelligent than Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Barack Obama.

Unfortunatly, I think the bill will pass today. The US Constitution will be stepped on and then tossed aside. I hear over and over that the American people will forget about this betrayal in a few months and go back to business as usual.

WRONG!

In the words of Isoroku Yamamoto after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Washington should be saying: "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve."
