Constitutional Insurgents, and fellow right wing extremists, it is a blessing, an honor, and a privilege to be with you, and I want especially to welcome any and all Acorn community activists.If there any Acorn people here could you come down front I have a call here from President Obama’s teleprompter….Speaking of our president…. I guess you have all heard about the new first dog. A Portugese Water Dog given to the first family by none other than Ted Kennedy. Let’s see now, A WATER DOG FROM TED KENNEDY, HMMM? You know I was hoping they would name the dog Chappa, but of course they decided on Bo, as in bail out, or B……..O…. Come to think about it things are pretty smelly in Washington right now.Speaking of lap dogs…..if some of you are looking for a summer job…. Sen. John McCain let us know he is looking for someone to housesit little Lindsey Gramnesty.Congressman Bob Inglis has sent us a request for all present tonight to hold our breath for fifteen minutes to cut down on CO2, to save the planet. Congressman Inglis recently said after it was announced that he now has four challengers that “ the question is whether conservatism is about love for country or dislike of our opponents, whether it’s about solutions that we know will work or wedges devised to drive votes, whether it’s the ideology of a small and angry sect or the governing philosophy of a majority of Americans”. Congressman I have a message for you from the increasing large and fed up sect, the ones who know what conservatism means, we hope you and your buddy Congressman Barrett enjoy your upcoming retirement. I hear the Galapagos Islands are nice!I have on good authority that Bailout Barrett is going to be teaching down at Tri-county Tech. The course is “ The New Political Strategy: How can I fool the voters just one more time”? I could teach a course “If you’re really a conservative you know to never vote for bailouts and bigger government”It’s good to see the Lt. Governor here tonight. Congratulations! I understand you drove all the way from Columbia in 20 minutes!And it’s good to see Sen. Jim Demint who told our news dept. “ I’m outnumbered in Washington and sometimes I’m a minority in my own party” . Senator when you get tired of the fraud, deceit, and the abuse I would encourage you to leave the Republican party and lead this tea party movement and a real conservative political party…. They are many who would follow you. The reasons are clear why Republicans lost in 2006 and in 2008 and you will continue to lose under the entrenched good old boy system in Washington and Columbia until you listen to the people and return to common sense , decency and conservatism.I have a few questions for our esteemed politicians:Could you explain the difference between the Somali Pirates and you Potomac Pirates? Plunder, Steal, Ransom; Ask for an apology.You know it’s time for a remake of Peter Pan. Nancy Pelosi as Peter, Arlen Spector as Captain Hook, And Barney Frank as Tinker Bell!What is a toxic asset? Let’s see now, toxic means poisonous, asset means a useful and desirable thing or quality…. So how could we have toxic assets?Sounds to me we should be talking about toxic liabilities…. And let’s be clear on this; the biggest toxic liabilities in America today are liberal, rinos, Koolaide drinker, and the socialist Marxist cheap suite at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave…..Toxic liabilities like greedy politicians…… greedy for power…. For adulation… for telling us what to do, when to do it, taking our money giving it to someone else, and using to create failed programs that buy the votes of the dependent and the ignorant…Approving bailouts and contractual compensation to executives and then threatening tax rates of 90%… this undermines Constitutional and contract law and is a perfect illustration of why absolute power corrupts absolutely. At the original Boston tea party it was about taxation without representation…… now it’s about confiscation as taxation. Government not only spends what it doesn’t have, it still wants to take everything we have…According to the Tax Foundation, a majority of Americans think taxes are too high and 85% think the tax code is too complex and 82% think the system needs to be completely overhauled. Obama said that he wants to make it simpler. His plan only has two parts. How much did you make? Now send it to me… The best solution I have seen is the Fair tax… It would replace all federal and payroll taxes with a national retail sales tax…. We keep our entire paycheck, retirees keep their pensions, a prebate for the poor, allows American products to compete fairly, ensures Social Security and Medicare funding, brings fairness to taxation and most importantly abolishes the IRS.. But sadly I must tell you I don’t think it will ever happen as long as we continue for the same old parties and the same old politicians because they love using the code to buy votes and control our lives.Speaking of money did you know that Jesus had more to say about money and possessions than any other topic…. There are more than 2350 verses in the Bible referencing money and possessions…. We don’t use weights and measures anymore but when the creature from Jekyl Island can produce $1.2 trillion dollars out of thin air we obviously have the greatest fraud in the history of mankind. For any elected official not to support Ron Paul’s H.R. 1207, the Federal Transparency Act of 2009 makes them complicit to the crime that is the federal reserve… It’s time for a complete audit of the Feds Board of governors and the Federal Reserve Banks. As congressman Paul said “ Throughout its nearly 100 year history, the Federal Reserve has presided over the near-complete destruction of the United States dollar. Since 1913 the dollar has lost over 95% of its purchasing power, aided and abetted by the feds loose monetary policy. How long will Congress stand idly by while hard- working Americans see their savings eaten away by inflation? Only big spending politicians and politically favored bankers benefit from inflation.”Talking about big spenders…. A $ 3.5 trillion dollar budget with a $ 1.2 dollar trillion deficit….. As of March 17th the national debt surpassed $11 trillion the largest in U. S. history. The federal government and the federal reserve have committed $12.8 trillion in spending to bailouts and stimulus programs which nearly equals the value of everything produced in the United States in 2008. Do you know what your part of the bill is? That’s $42,105 for every man, woman and child in the country and 14 times the $899.8 billion of currency in circulation. And what will we do when China wants their money back? For those that don’t know, China holds most of our debt therefore we are slaves to communists. China, according to the New York Times, is worried about their exposure. They are starting to reverse their buying of U.S. Treasuries, they are increasing military spending while we reverse ours, they would like to crush us, they hate capitalism, and we are broke. China is a manufacturing giant because we have destroyed our manufacturing base and squandered our resources. We allow them to manipulate their currency, we are hopelessly dependent and all because we the people have not been responsible about who we send to Washington. As commentator Jane Chastain puts it, it’s time to dump these politicians….. It’s not about political parties… It’s about survival. If we don’t, our children are going to go to New York one day to see the Statue of Liberty and there will be a big sign on it that says Property of the Peoples Republic of China.This is yet another reason why I believe that taking this poison called stimulus or bailout for any reason…. Are you listening Gov. Sanford? ….. Are you listening Cong. Barrett? Taking any of this poison is the equivalent of putting a noose of debt around the necks of our children and grandchildren.. Those who say we have to take this debt are like heroin addicts begging for another fix…America has an addiction problem…. Its big government…. This country needs to go to rehab…. Ronald Reagan where are you…. We need you… we cry out for your wisdom “Government is not the solution to our problems….. government is the problem”. We need a major political housecleaning… the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. I believe the problems we face will never be solved by the Democrat or Republican Party. As columnist Charley Reese wrote, politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. If they truly are against inflation and deficits and high taxes then why do we have these problems? 100 senators, 435 congressmen, nine Supreme Court justices- 545 human beings out of the 350 million- are directly, legally, morally and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country. They take an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, yet as Sen. Demint has told us they routinely violate it every day. They don’t even read the bills they pass so why would they pay attention to the constitution? They are arrogant. They are ignorant of the wisdom of the founding fathers. We no longer have founding fathers we have funding fathers. And folks we make this way more complicated that it should be… the answer IS the U.S Constitution Rep. John Shadegg of Arizona and only 19 others have sponsored H.R. 450, the Enumerated Powers Act, which states that “ Each Act of Congress shall contain a concise and definite statement of the constitutional authority relied upon for enactment”. Shadegg said “ The founding fathers intended our national government to be a limited government. As the final amendment in the 10 of the Bill of rights, it is clear that the Constitution establishes a Federal Government of enumerated and limited powers.” It has been introduced every year that Shadegg has been in Congress but it will never pass because we are being ruled by traitors that want no limits to their powers. They are robber barons, we have a commander in thief, we need a real change, but we will never get it under two party tyranny. Vote based on principle, not pragmatism. The lapdog brags about principled compromise….. Senator Graham I say to you that if you have core principles you can never compromise…. It may get you on the cables news shows and invited to Obama’s cocktail parties but you sir are an embarrassment to real conservatives in S.C.Obama has praised you for being a trusted advisor… he has already announced plans to create this so called pathway for illegals to become legal. According to the New York Times the president will speak publicly about this in May and will press lawmakers from both parties to begin discussing legislation by the fall. Obama pledges to bring people out of the shadows, let them pay a fine, learn English and go to the back of the line in the citizenship process. Sen. Graham what will your advice to the president be? I think I know the answer. We remember your words to La Raza…. Tell the racists and bigots to shut up as I recall. Let me ask you fellow patriots…. Do want Amnesty?Illegals take jobs from Americans. They cost far more than they can ever contribute. We the taxpayers foot the bill through social services, public education, welfare, food stamps. According to a Heritage Foundation study, the cost to taxpayers is about $9000.00 for every illegal. This is an invasion of our country, it is a clear and present danger to our safety and our sovereignty. We have had enough…close our borders, protect our country, you’re a lawmaker… enforce the law.I am tired of the lip service when it comes to the most tragic issue of our time… the legalized murder of the innocent unborn… Politicians tell us that they’re pro life…. We vote for them… we hope and pray for the end of this slaughter… yet it continues…. How many babies are dying right now… And now under this president we taxpayers are forced to fund foreign abortions…… We know Democrats support this murder and now they are in total control… but it wasn’t long ago that Republicans had control of Congress and the White House and were there any challenges to Roe v Wade? Oh yeah that’s right… Pres. Bush told us that the time wasn’t right..When is the right time? Republican leaders seem to be more concerned about not offending potential voters under their big tent philosophy than taking the bully pulpit and using every news conference, every soundbite, every speech to stop this massacre of these precious gifts from God.Barack Obama is coming for our guns. Attorney Sean Healy said on CNN “ If he and the people in control of Congress right now could have what they want, they would heavily restrict or eliminate guns from this country”. A new CNN poll shows Americans do not want gun control. A Gallop poll shows the number of Americans who want to restrict Second Amendment rights is at an all time low. Here are the facts and they are undeniable: In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated. Germany established gun control in 1938. From 1939 to 1945 13 million Jews who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated. China 1935, gun control, from 1948 to 1952 20 million political dissidents were rounded up and exterminated. Defenseless people rounded up and exterminated in the 20th century because of gun control: 56 million. The founding fathers tried to tell us. George Washington said “ A free people ought to be armed”.Thomas Jefferson said “ Laws that forbid the carrying of guns….disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes….Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants: they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man”. Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 28:“ If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government…”. Patrick Henry: “ Are we at last brought to such a humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted for our own defense? …..having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands”. James Madison: “ There are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations”.I will not be a fool… I will protect my family and my propertyIf some thug kicks in my door at 2:00 am…. I will not beg for my life or try to hide in the closet… I will shoot to kill. We need to reassert our sovereignty. The 10th amendment says that the powers not given to the federal government are reserved to the states and the people. Texas governor Rick Perry said this week that if Washington continues to thumb its nose at the American people with this federal budget mess that Texans might at some point get so fed up they would want to secede from the union. Here in S.C. we know a little bit about that….There is going to be a rally on May 2 at 12:00 at the statehouse in Columbia sponsored by the Patriotic Resistance..According to a Dept. of Homeland Security report this week.. if you are concerned about illegals, increasing federal power, restrictions on firearms, abortion and the loss of U.S. sovereignty, then you might be a “ right wing extremist”. As ridiculous as this is… the most insulting part of this report was that it singles out returning war veterans as particular threats. To any and all veterans and their families here tonight, let me say that no words can ever express the appreciation we have for your service to our country. We stand here tonight able to speak freely because of your courage and sacrifice. It is a travesty the way this country continues to disrespect you. After seeing Saving Private Ryan I rededicated my life to live in such a way as to somehow be worthy of what you have done for me and my family. I am going to be a grandfather this November… so I have been thinking about what to say to my grandchild about our country…. What are you telling your children and grandchildren? My generation owes future generations an apology…Why did we allow things to get this way? There is no justification, no excuse..But I will tell my grandchild to put their trust in the Lord Almighty. As a cancer survivor by his amazing grace, I can tell you that he will never leave you and if you will humble yourself and pray…. He will bless you and keep you….Government is trying to replace God… but the promises to give you everything that you may think you’re entitled to are false and devious.. A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take everything you have….We have been here before…We are standing at a crossroads of history… As Janet Porter of Faith2Action put it…… It was impossible for George Washington and his army to take on the world’s most powerful nation and win. But, by the grace of God, they did.Winston Churchill faced fascism and even when he stood alone, he never gave up. And because he stood, we now stand in freedom.Ronald Reagan faced communism and called it what it was: evil. He told Mr. Gorbachev to tear down that wall and freedom triumphed over communism. It can againWhile that first tea party was to protest taxation without representation let us all leave here tonight with a renewed understanding of the wisdom and brilliance of those who wrote our Declaration in 1776. “ When in course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them….. We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,- That whenever any form of Government becomes Destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it……..” Pray for God’s mercy, unity, and the strength and grace to take our country back again. Thank you
