The Arms Of The Regime

By Semperpapa

I have been berated in the past for being too concerned, and even paranoid, about the desire of the current administration to be working overtime in the effort of reducing and eventually eliminating the basic principles that have created and sustained our republic since 1776: freedom and self-determination from any attempt of a central government at achieving despotic control.

Now, I am not saying that I have been proved right, at least not yet, but the interesting thing is that the proponents for a tyrannical change in America do not appear concerned about hiding their true intentions.

Following are two separate statements. The first one is from the Liberal governor of the state of North Carolina, Bev Perdue:

"You have to have more ability from Congress, I think, to work together and to get over the partisan bickering and focus on fixing things. I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that. The one good thing about Raleigh is that for so many years we worked across party lines. It's a little bit more contentious now but it's not impossible to try to do what's right in this state. You want people who don't worry about the next election."

I have said in the past that the liberal progressives, lead by king Obama, are working hard to create a climate of emergency that would allow the regime to take drastic and openly unconstitutional steps to curtail the freedom and the voice of the American people in the name of public safety.

What Gov. Perdue stated is her desire to address the “emergency” of the so called lack of cooperation among politicians by taking away from the people the ability to hire and fire politicians because their service goes against the will of those they are allegedly supposed to represent.

Interesting is also that she is looking for people to not hold their representatives accountable for their actions. How convenient! So some slob in Washington votes to reduce the rights of his/her constituents, angering them, and, according to this governor, the constituents should not hold it against the politician.

Moreover, who can actually guarantee that after two years, the government will be satisfied with the outcome of that limitation? What if the government deemed necessary, again for public safety sake, to suspend elections until further notice? Such action would basically eliminate the ability of the people to peacefully have a say in the shaping of the government. That, my friends, is called totalitarianism.

Gov. Perdue’s office released a statement following the outrage expressed by many, clarifying that she was only joking. Must be my paranoia, but I did not denote any jocularity in the statement.

Not satisfied yet? You still think I may be paranoid?

Ok, here is the second statement for your consideration. This was made by Peter Orszag, former Director of one of Obama’s strong arms for the regime, the Office of Management and Budget:

“To solve the serious problems facing our country, we need to minimize the harm from legislative inertia by relying more on automatic policies and depoliticize commissions for certain policy decisions. In other words, radical as it sounds, we need to counter the gridlock of our political institutions by making them a bit less democratic.”

Well, depoliticizing commissions sounds really good, doesn’t it? Of course as long as the commissions are created, manned and controlled by the ideology of the regime. How come Mr. Orszag did not make such a call during George W. Bush presidency? I can still remember how all the Orszag of the left were up in arm by the Patriot Act, complaining that it was a clear violation of the civil rights of the American people. But suddenly, reducing the ability of commissions to represent the will of the people is a serious problem.

These political institutions this guy is willing to make “a bit less democratic” are institutions that our Founding Fathers designed to safeguard the interests of freedom exactly against the aspirations of people like this moron and his former boss.

So, if the call from these two Obama stooges is heeded, we would find ourselves with suspended elections and political institutions’ democratic substance reduced. A really dangerous situation to begin with, as the aphrodisiac that is power would take over the reign of the governing entities and the only resource left for the people would be to take up arms against the despots and reclaim the Nation.

That is if We the People will resist the already ongoing war our government has been waging against our Second Amendment rights.

Well, just call me paranoid.

Just my thoughts!
