That's the question and
the bet of our day. Conservatives and TeaPartyers bet yes,
Democrats and moonbat moochers bet no. The Republican
Party establishment wants to bet yes but hasn't got the guts to go all
in.
Understand this and you understand American politics today.
Who wins the bet determines America's future.
What made
Americans Americans was their commitment - unrivaled in human history -
to individual liberty. This commitment was enshrined as
the founding principle of America in the Declaration of Independence:
That every human being and specifically every American has a moral
right endowed by his Creator, by what is required by his nature to be
fully human, to his own personal life, his own personal liberty, and the
pursuit of his own personal happiness - and that no government
has the moral right or legitimate authority to violate this individual
right.
Further, that the very purpose of government, what
legitimized a government's very existence, was to secure and protect
this individual right - and whenever a government becomes destructive of
this right, those governed by it have a moral right to alter and
abolish it.
The Declaration of Independence is
the most truly revolutionary document in political history.
It is the most profoundly moral document as
well. And to confound the long line of philosophers who
claim there is an unbridgeable abyss between moral behavior and
pragmatic self-interested behavior, it is also the most practically
successful document in history. America's prosperity
dwarfs any historical comparison.
The truth of America's founding
principles were "self-evident" to the Americans who created our country.
They are no longer to an increasingly large fraction of Americans
today. The stated purpose and clear goal of Democrats is
to increase that fraction. The claimed purpose and alleged
goal of Republicans is to reduce it.
For decades upon decades
now, Americans on the whole have been slowly and progressively becoming
less American, less independent and responsible for their own lives,
more dependent on government programs and demanding of others to be
responsible for them.
We have now reached the point where between
40 to 50% of people in this country are so unwilling to be responsible
for their lives and freedom, so demanding of their supposed right to
mooch off taxpayers, that they still maintain a firm support of a
president who believes that God should damn America.
We have
reached the point with the passage of ObamaCare that we are justified in
terming those who continue to support President Zero and the Pelosi-Reid
Democrat Party AINOs - Americans In Name Only.
In one
sense, we can be glad that ObamaCare passed in the House last Sunday,
March 21, and signed into law by President Zero two days later - because
it forces the issue. America must now choose between
freedom or fascism, there is no other choice, nothing in-between.
"Give me liberty or give me death," proclaimed Patrick Henry in
1775. "Live free or die," said Revolutionary War general
John Stark, which New Hampshire adopted as its state motto.
That was a real choice at the birth of America. Now
it is again.
The next seven months are going to be the ugliest
this country has experienced in our lifetimes. Any and all
opponents of ObamaCare will be branded as terrorists - indeed they are
already. The Democrats will look upon their ObamaCare
victory as a template, and attempt to ram through via bribes and
corruption passage of amnesty for illegals, a carbon tax, a VAT tax, and
every other major item on their Marxist Fascist agenda.
Given the
volcanic rage this will engender in so many people, it will be
impossible for there not to be outbreaks and incidents of violence
perpetrated upon Democrat politicians. This is exactly
what the Democrats want. Their goal is to goad and provoke
their opponents into violence so they can demonize them, so they can sic
the FBI upon them.
It is going to take superhuman levels of
self-control not to succumb to the temptation to take physical revenge
upon the politicians and government personnel determined to destroy our
country. There has got to be an alternative to violence
that people can see is effective - much more effective, in fact, than
violence.
That alternative for immediate personal action is:
peaceful civil disobedience. Following TTP's
call for a Defund and Disobey movement,
Forbes Magazine
is now quoting Ghandi - "civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when
the state has become lawless and corrupt" - and predicting the largest
civil disobedience movement since the civil rights era.
There is
one group of Americans who can lead this civil disobedience movement
better than any other - and it's not the TeaPartyers. It's
doctors. After all, they are the ones who are enslaved by
the State to provide medical care according the State's edicts.
If they refuse to be so enslaved, if they refuse to obey the
edicts of ObamaCare, there is no ObamaCare.
In the face of their
enslavement, many doctors will "go Galt" - retire or quit practicing
medicine. Others will meekly comply, becoming PINOs - Physicians
In Name Only - to whom you should never trust your life and health.
But others will fight. Like the group of
1,600 New Jersey physicians
who are suing to overturn ObamaCare. Like
Linda Johnston, MD,
who is refusing to submit her patients' records to insurance companies.
I am willing to bet there are tens of thousands of physicians and
medical practitioners willing to join this fight. Thus I
propose they form an organization called Doctors Against Medical
Fascism or DAMF. I even bought the website names:
doctorsagainstmedicalfascism.org and damf.org.
If you know any medical doctors or practitioners, please
ask them to consider helping to organize DAMF. If doctors
take the lead in refusing to obey ObamaCare, millions will follow.
Millions of others will be bought off by ObamaCare's goodies and
subsidies - like forcing insurance companies to insure their kids with
pre-existing illness, or getting a Medicare rebate of $250 for
prescription drugs - just like Bart Stupak's deciding vote was bought
for $800K in handouts to his district.
Back in 2005, I wrote
Infantilizomania.
It argued that liberals possessed a neurotic compulsion to treat adults
as children. It's worth re-reading now.
Infantilizomania is the Democrats' path to power - because so many
voters are willing to be infantilized.
This has got to stop, one
way or another. And it will, one way or another, on
November 2nd. Ronald Reagan won the Cold War
because he decided his strategy towards the Soviet Union was not
appeasement but "We win, they lose."
We have got to decide that
on November 2nd, Americans win, AINOs lose.
Here is the full page ad in every newspaper and on every TV channel in
the country we should demand to see:
DO YOU WANT
1. To be free to make your own life?
Or
2. To have the government take care of your life?
If you answered Yes to #1, you are a Republican
If you
answered Yes to #2, you are a Democrat
DO YOU THINK
1.
That you are responsible for your own life?
Or
2. That other people (taxpayers) are responsible for
your life?
If you answered Yes to #1, you are a Republican
If you answered Yes to #2, you are a Democrat
It's That
Simple - Vote Accordingly
Paid for by the Republican National
Committee * 310 First Street SE
Washington DC 20003 *
202-863-8500 * www.gop.com
On
November 2nd, all Americans will be given the opportunity to
be Americans - Americans our Founders would recognize as their fellow
countrymen. If that opportunity is lost, America is lost.
Americans will no longer be Americans any longer.
We should thank Providence that we have been given a final choice in our
country's destiny.
