Donald Trump, government, media, peace, people, platform, Tax, US

Well, Donald Trump has been president for nearly two years.  During that time, he has lifted black employment, Hispanic employment, has enhanced spending on Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), has enforced border security, has bought North Korea to the table for peace and de-nuclearization, has discarded the disastrous Paris Climate Change accord, has scrapped NAFTA, has Europe, Canada, China all offering much better deals for the US on trade, has forced NATO to pick up their tabs for security, has built up Africa Command, has provided support to our friends in Europe and the middle east, has beefed up support for our Asian allies, and is forcing China back from hegemony in the Pacific theater, has freed unjustly convicted people, including a black woman ignored by Barack Obama, has had North Korea return prisoners, has acknowledged Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and moved the US embassy to Jerusalem, has increase take-home pay and arranged for bonuses for employees through new tax reductions for companies, and yet, what ahs the main stream media concentrated on: Activities that either happened well before he became even a candidate, or activities that have nothing to do with Donald, namely Russian collusion.

Donald had done more in the last over twenty months, than the last three presidents combined achieved over the last twenty years.  Over the cries of you can’t recover manufacturing to the US, new companies are starting and old companies are restarting factories.  Over the cries of renewable energy is the death knell of coal and oil, new coal mines are being opened and new veins of coal are being exploited.  New oil fields are opening, and once again, the US is fast becoming one of the biggest exporters of oil in the world.  Obama’s drop the mic moment during the 2016 presidential campaign was just another miscue by a president without a clue.  Donald Trump continually provides drop the mic moments that leave his detractors blinking in disbelief; the president always makes hi points, and doesn’t rely on talking points by learned scholars or focus groups.  Mr. Trump has only one focus group he relies on: The American People.  His rallies provide Donald all the feedback he needs.  And, unlike previous presidents, Donald will stop and talk to everyone, from kings and queens, to the smallest child on the street, no one is too lowly for our current president.

In 2020, when the question is asked, are you better off now than you were four years ago, unless you were asleep for four years, the only answer you can provide is a resounding yes.  Donald Trump is the first president since George Washington who actually completes the promises he has made.  And, he’s the only president or politician that has been pilloried by the main stream media for keeping his promise.  I am a deplorable, and I support this president. Now, and 2020…

Liberals Mistaken Views…

administration, charter schools, children, education, government, media, ObamaCare, people, poverty, republicans, school shootings

erroneous-elephantThis really torques my jaw.  Yes, the intent for the rescinding of the federal order is to protect children from predators.  However, the school shootings, if a little research is done, will be shown to have happened in places that have designated themselves as “Gun-Free Zones”.  And the shooters have been, in each case, a member of the “peaceful” democrat party, a liberal person.

As far as poverty, over the last eight (8) years, the former administration not only succeeded in putting many of these children’s parents in poverty, the previous administration’s involvement in the school lunch program has resulted in less children being fed a meal that could sustain them, instead promoting a meal that most children could barely stomach, and resulted in extensive waste as children threw the lunches and dinners away.

This administration is working on taking care of the education issue, one which was overtaken and driven into the ground by the previous administration’s “Common Core” education agenda.  This agenda resulted in a marked drop in education standards, confusing tests, and, of course, additions of many “administrators” when teachers were needed, driving up the costs of education, while not adding anything to the schools themselves.  The new Education Secretary believes in Charter Schools, vouchers for parents, and choice for parents, something the previous administration fought against, as those take control of the schools from unelected bureaucrats and giving control back to teachers and parents.

And health care?  Prior to the former administration, many children HAD healthcare.  With the ACA, better known as obamacare, all of these children, through their parents, lost access to adequate healthcare.  Can anyone remember “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor”? Everyone on the left touts the amount of people who got access to healthcare, 30 million+.  Problem is, more than 45 to 50 million+ loss access to healthcare as employers dropped personnel hours to part-time levels, cut personnel, etc.

Climate Change.  This is the most ridiculous, the dumbest, the worst perversion of science since the Spanish Inquisition.  Before we get everyone all riled up, let me explain my reasons.  Climate change happens.  It happens whether there are people on the planet or not.  Climate change is caused by atmospheric activity, earth convulsions (earthquakes, volcanoes, etc.), by the plants and animals on the planet (hey, there are more animals on the planet than there are humans, and waaaaay more insects), and by solar activity.  Now, where do I say that HUMANS have negligible effect?  It comes from study of different meteorological data available to everyone…or used to be.  Let me take you back about 25 years.  In the early ’80s, chaos theory was being developed.  Chas theory had its basis in meteorological data collected over a couple of hundred years.  In the early ’70s, a researcher was collating data, using one of the old mainframes with the teletype input terminals.  As it was a late Friday night, being a grad student, and this was the ’70s, he decided to take a shortcut, and set the data to be trimmed to six decimals points to the right.  Smiling smugly, he headed out, knowing the collating and information wouldn’t be ready until Monday morning.  On Monday, he began the process of reviewing the data, and found that the charts were drastically different than the original charts the data was pulled from.  The original numbers were out to 8 decimal places to the right, and by chopping the them down to six, instead of being a rough sketch following the original chart, the entire information showed, in some places, skews of up to 180 degrees from the original data.  The grad student then spent the week experimenting with minute adjustments to the data, showing massively unpredictable swings in the output.  The grad student then wrote a treatise outlining the effect and called it “Chaos Theory”.  Some call it the “Butterfly Effect” but this isn’t quite the same.  So what does that have to do with Climate Change?  Simple.  The true data on climate change, the true meteorological data, shows that the planet has swings through each manner of weather cycling, as a minimum, every 10,000 years.  If a true scientist were to accurately use the CORRECT meteorological inputs, they would see the swing.  Core tappers in the Arctic and the Antarctic have shown the swings, as well as drilling taps through to the lowest points that scientists are able to go on dry land and the ocean.  Mankind has been around roughly 30,000 years.  In that time, civilizations have risen and fallen.  From roughly 700 AD to 1500 AD, there were many decades of cold, freezing temperatures.  Was this due to mankind? I think not.  Yet nowadays, as we progress through another cycle, there “scientists” and other Inquisition-style “professionals” who loudly declare that “Climate Change” has been bought on by man.  Using, of course, data they themselves have skewed.  Just recently, it was learned, “Climate Change” scientists with NOAA ignored accurate data from climate buoys scattered through the oceans, using data collected solely through ships, knowing the data was inaccurate, to bolster climate change charges.  I would rather not teach about climate change, and ignore these “professionals” than to allow them to teach such utter nonsense.  After all, for these professionals, “Climate Change” is a multi-billion dollar industry.  And “Carbon Footprint”? Every damn thing on the planet, and surrounding it, has a “Carbon Footprint”.  This doesn’t affect any damn thing, but is just a way for nations to transfer unmarked money in the guise of “Clean Environments”.  Hey, if you don’t believe me, check out Gore and DiCaprio.  Gore and DiCaprio fly everywhere on private jets, “taking some friends along to reduce the ‘footprint'”.  They drive SUVs, at 8 miles to the gallon.  If this is being ecologically friendly, I’ll pass.  And this is what they want to teach our children?  We’ll pass and focus on the real world and real world science.

It’s a shame that so much misinformation is out there, and no one, absolutely no one, that purports to be liberal or progressive or a democrat, is willing to give Donald Trump and his administration time to work on Donald’s agenda.  The left expect Donald to immediately produce something, and yet, when he does, screams about violations, etc.  The tolerant left.  Yeah, tight…

Hacking, Leaking, The Media Is Missing The Point…

china, Democrat Party, democrats, DNC, email, government, hackers, hillary, Hillary Clinton, justice, media, Russian, US

Everyone is up-in-arms about the so-called “Russian Hacking”.  “The Russians were behind the leaking of the emails!!”  “The Russians hacked into the Democrats emails!!” “The Russians tried to steer the election!!”  Pundits and opinion journalists, many on the left and right, are taking up the mantle of attacking “Outside Influences” who were trying to “shape the American Election”.  And Every Last One Of Them, Public And Private Speakers Both, Have Got It Wrong!!!

Why am I the only voice out here saying “I DON’T CARE WHO HACKED THE EMAILS!!”  If the Russians wanted to hack something, as well as the Chinese, I’m damn sure their actors are probably intent on our infrastructure, our industry, our finance, and those politicians currently in office who are corruptible and easily blackmailed.  Trying to do anything with our election would be akin to trying to stop the flow of the Mississippi River with a seine net: Ya gonna have to wait a few million years to see any effect.

You see, the real issue, the issue everyone and their brother are blithely ignoring is: IF HILLARY HADN’T HAD HER EMAILS ON A PRIVATE SERVER, BUT ON THE GOVERNMENT, STATE DEPARTMENT, EMAIL SERVER, SHE WOULD NEVER, I MEAN, NEVER , HAD HER EMAILS HACKED!!! IF THE DNC WASN’T COLLABORATING WITH HILLARY, THEY WOULDN’T HAVE THE EMAILS THAT WERE RELEASED!!!.

The truth is, Hillary Clinton used an ILLEGAL server to keep her emails private from scrutiny by the government that she WORKED FOR.  These emails are rightfully the province of the US Government, and should have been placed on government servers and archived properly for the official government records.  Yes, Hillary could have had a private email ACCOUNT, which is radically different than a SERVER.  An account is hosted elsewhere, with access by the government through necessary warrants.  Private emails have been used by other Secretaries of State, but NONE, absolutely NONE, have used a private SERVER. That is placing vital government security information OUTSIDE the security of government protection, and available for hacking, which is what happened.

Hillary Clinton knowingly, and with malice aforethought, decided to use a private server, knowing, herself, that this was a violation of several US laws, codes, and regulations.  Hillary signed a document acknowledging this.  And yet she decided to do this, even when she was reprimanding her own staff for using private emails themselves.  A case of “Do as I say, not as I do”.  Hillary Clinton and her team should not be amazed that they then are hacked by outside forces, regardless of who it is.  The DNC are clamoring that the Russians hacked their servers.  The problem is, the DNC are using this as an excuse to had the fact they collaborated to deny the nomination to any other candidate but Hillary.

This is the age-old case of trying to shoot the messenger for the message.  You cannot, just cannot, blame the hackers for the problems with the emails.  Hillary Clinton decided to place herself above the law, assuming that she was invincible.  The DNC played fast and loose with the Democrat nomination process and the run-up to the election.  These are incontrovertible facts.  Just because they came from hacked emails does not make them less so.  If Hillary wanted to have her emails protected, she should have NOT used a private server, but used a State Department email account, as others before her have done.  The DNC should have played fair with all of the candidates for the Democrat nomination, not structure the nomination to support only Hillary.

These are the facts.  No one who’s emails have been placed on public display have had the temerity to claim that the emails were, in fact, not theirs.  Not one denial has come forth. The truth is, no one should give a damn about WHO hacked the emails.  That is a Smoke and Mirrors ploy, used to distract from the real truth. The real truth is that Hillary Clinton used an illegal server to circumvent the government rules and laws concerning archiving of government correspondence.  The real truth is that the  DNC used illegal acts to circumvent nominating anyone but Hillary Clinton.  Personnel associated with the DNC and the Democrat Party flagrantly violated the trust, as well, in some cases, as the law, in paving Hillary’s ascent to the nomination.  THESE are the things that should have people riled up, as Americans.  We are supposed to have a fair and equitable system of governance, as well as the means of fairly selecting who we want to govern.  Hillary Clinton, as well as the democrat elites, strived to circumvent those rules we have in place.  This is what makes me mad.

I don’t care who hacked the emails.  Truthfully, if they weren’t there in the first place, there wouldn’t be a problem.  So the people we should be mad at, the ones that should be brought to justice, are not the hackers, but those who would attempt to subvert our system of democracy for their own personal power.  The hackers just showed us who they are, and what they were trying to do, nothing more…

The Donald Has Done It!!!

Donald Trump, government, media, people, president, presidential cabinet, Presidential Election, republicans, UN, USA

On November 8th, 2016, the impossible became possible.  The man that everyone laughed at, the media, the politicians, the pundits, the elitists, they all laughed uproariously when Donald Trump threw his hat into the ring. “Apprentice??!!” they laughed. “Wild hair and twitter” they snickered.  “He’s never held a political office and doesn’t know what politics is all about” they harrumphed.  His escapades made all the Main Stream Media cackle, and the liberal/progressives scream in delight.  The Republican Establishment haughtily sneered down their noses at this pretender.  “We have Jeb Bush lined up for the canonization, how dare this fraudster come amongst us and smearing our good name” they disdainfully declared.  But just like dominoes, one by one, the Republican contenders dropped out.  This so-called ‘fraudster, uncouth gangster’ showed more class in his support of one of his opponents than the entire Republican establishment showed anyone, when, at the start of the debate, Dr. Carson’s name was called  The doctor didn’t hear the call, but, Mr. Trump, instead of walking by, waited with the good doctor, and walked in together with him.  The rest just smiled and smirked and passed both by, but Donald Trump waited with Ben Carson.  This was the inkling that America had of what The Donald was.  Just because you have something, doesn’t make you better than anyone else.  If Donald had thought that, he would’ve passed Ben by.

This is what America voted for.  Not someone with flowery speeches of airy ideas about pie-in-the-sky dreams.  They voted for someone who cares.  Yes, Donald Trump blusters, but he picks carefully what he blusters about.  His detractors and naysayers and Never-Trumpers never understood that.  Donald spoke to the heart of people who had been left behind by the elites in both parties, the liberal/progressives, and a president that spoke only to his clique.  Donald spoke about the greatness of America, and Donald spoke to the pain of the small town, middle class, white, black brown, yellow, and green (military) Americans, who have been bypassed and marginalized by a liberal minority intent on shrinking American influence and prosperity in the name of ‘globalization’ and ‘one world government’ under the auspices of the UN.  Just as the UK did in the BREXIT vote to the EU, Americans rejected the idea of UN governance of our country.

Clinton’s supporters all claim this was jury-rigged by Russian hackers releasing damaging emails.  They claim, as well as Hillary, that, based on the popular vote, Hillary is the rightful heir-apparent and should be crowned president.  And, as usual, they are wrong.  The election wasn’t lost because Russians hacked Hillary’s emails.  The emails were just the icing on the cake.  Hillary Clinton was a flawed candidate to begin with.  Hillary had none of the charisma and ease with people that her husband, Bill, had.  Hillary’s confidantes continually said, “If you knew the real Hillary, you’d see a different person”. The problem is, unless you WERE a Hillary confidante, or a big-money donor, then you would NEVER see the ‘real’ Hillary.  Too many people, all the low-level scrubs, saw their real Hillary.  She was a vehement, sarcastic, foul-mouthed person that expected people to grovel when she approached.  This is why she never felt like visiting the Rust Belt, or the Bible Belt.  The Clinton campaign lost because they lost touch with the people.

Donald knew what the people felt.  He visited, not the big states of California and New York over and over again, but the states where manufacturing and industry had fled.  Where people, young, old, black, white, brown, etc., were hurt and hurting, because there weren’t any jobs.  Companies being run by accountants were outsourcing jobs, bringing in visa workers, because they were ‘cheaper’.  Foreign governments, primarily China, were devaluing their currency against the dollar to influence their old school buddies to move work to their countries.  Donald saw this, and he worked to give people hope.  The left claimed that Donald was fear mongering. No, Donald was HOPE mongering.  As a businessman, Donald knows that you are only as good as your word.  What he offered people at his rallies was not clichés, not vague promises. He offered his word, and he offered hope.  Hope to all of those who have been literally disenfranchised by the political system.  Hope that tomorrow will be better for them, for their children, for their grandchildren, and for the future.

One of the things that Donald made sure of at his rallies was his people, those who voted for him and supported him knew throughout his campaign, that this was not going to be easy.  This was going to be painful.  But he guaranteed, this was going to happen.  This is the reason that people voted for The Donald.  They didn’t vote in ones and twos; they didn’t vote in dozens and scores.  No, the people, no, the movement voted in the thousands and millions, renouncing the Obama/liberal/progressive agenda.  The American people voted for real change that would benefit them.  The American people voted for someone who stabilize their country, return America back to it’s place as the premier superpower, and help to provide for a prosperous country.  The reason that The Wall rang out so clearly and so succinctly is that the American people, both natural and naturalized, feel that we don’t have a handle on our borders. The borders being wide open symbolizes, for many Americans, the draining of American resources out of the country, and the rampant invasion of our country by people who have ill intent on our way of life.  Donald Trump’s declaration “We Will Build The Wall!” symbolizes our desire to take our country back from those who would attempt to destroy it, enemies both foreign and domestic.

Donald Trump, the gag of late night shows, the snub of the elites, the so-called misogynistic, racist, hate-mongering guy with the most racially diverse, sexually-diverse coalition since Ronald Reagan, is now President-Elect.  Donald has worked to keep American jobs in America, forgoing his Thanksgiving, has received thanks from a democratically-elected president that the left deplore, and has made more cabinet picks in the first four weeks than any other president-elect in recent history.  Sure Donald likes twitter a little too much.  But Donald Trump has achieved more SOLID actions in his first four weeks than the preceding president has in the last eight years.

If this is how Donald Trump is before he’s actually sworn in, imagine what he’ll be like as the official President Of The United States.

I believe…In America…

believe in America, federal, government, president, regulations

I believe:

1. That federal government, and the president, have limited powers, and should be held accountable
What does this mean? I believe that our government has three roles, and only three:
a. Provide for the common defense of our country; this means not only in a military, but in a diplomatic capacity. Our government should insure that no one takes advantage of us, and protects us from all enemies, both foreign and domestic.
b. Work with the local and state governments to encourage and work to build interstate commerce. This means insuring that all playing fields are level for all players, large or small. That small businesses are not stifled under regulations and laws that prevent growth, not only of the businesses, but of the consumers that buy the goods or services that these businesses provide. Federal government should only, ever only, take what is needed to maintain the government, and not a penny more. Anything is grasping greed. Government is not business, big or small. Government is the entity that says we are a nation, with national pride. Government does not produce anything, and thus, should not be a yoke on the neck of the people it is supposed to represent.
c. Act as our intermediary with foreign governments, as our spokesman, and as our defense. Government, and the president, are our face to the world. Although many misconstrue the idea that American television and movies are the face of the American people, the reality is: When our representatives speak, most of the world believes these representatives, including the president, speaks with our voice. As such, our government, and our president, is supposed to speak loudly, strongly, and with conviction.

2. That the only entitlements by law are Social Security and Military Retiree benefits. Welfare is not an entitlement. Welfare was designed as a means to help someone regain their footing. Welfare was designed to help those who have fallen on hard times, and need assistance in getting their feet back under them. Welfare was never meant to be, nor should it be, a way of life. Welfare should provide enough for someone to survive, not live. There are plenty of private organizations that can help, but the government does not have a role in keeping people in a style that most middle class working families cannot afford. If a family, with parents working hard, cannot afford a luxury meal, neither should someone that will not work, but wants the government to provide.

3. That small business is the major part of the engine that drives the United States of America. Small businesses should not be a battleground for Environmental Protection Agency, Federal Trade Commission, or any of the many unelected buearacratic organizations to fight on. These agencies were developed originally to insure 1. Fair trade for US businesses; 2. A means to help businesses achieve a greater goal; 3. A way for the American people to be safe, but also a means for small businesses to be safer also.

4. That education of our young should include civic education, religious education, and real education. Our country should still follow the rules we incorporated when our country started: Education is to enable us to grow, not a means for a debating society for young children who don’t have life experience to talk about, or an indoctrination center for those who have ulterior motives not related to education, regardless of their views.

5. That crime and criminals should be punished. We in the US used to punish crime and criminals. Criminals used to be made to pay for their crimes. Criminals had to work, and work hard. Anyone caught doing the wrong thing was punished. The victim used to be helped, to overcome the adversity of the crime.

I believe all of the above. I believe in the US. I just don’t believe our government is willing to do what used to make us great. The left blames the right, the right the left. The president decides which laws he will enforce, which he will ignore. The “leaders” of the Republican party spend their time reacting to what the “leaders” of the Democrat party are saying. Wall Street spends the government’s money as if it were their own, and no one is held to blame. Schools need money for school equipment, education, etc., while at the same time, schools hire more and more administrators, who do nothing but waste the schools’ monies.

Liberty, Not Just Democracy (Warning: A Rant on the Current Administration and Congress)

amendments, Bill of Rights, budgets, congress, constitution, executive, executive acts, freedom, government, judicial, legislative, liberty, politicians, president, right to bear arms, rights, second amendment, Supreme Court, Tree of Liberty, United States

“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote. “- Benjamin Franklin

Liberty, like freedom, is a concept that is alien to many of those outside of our country. Liberty means more than just the freedom to spout on about the issues of the day. Liberty means also defending, not just your right to say what you want to say, but to also defend your opponent and their right of what they want to say. Liberty, like freedom, isn’t free.

America has a long history of those who have stood up for the rights of the people. America has a long history of those who have also stood up for the rights of the individual. It is a core value of our country, and we defend that value, and we treasure our rights as free men and women as jealously as a miser treasures his gold.

But with our liberty comes our obligations. The right to “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness” comes with its own price. And America has always been willing to pay that price. Always. Two times against the British, once against the French, once against the Spanish through their surrogates, once against our own brothers on our own soil, twice against German imperialism and ambition, twice against communist aggression, twice against a sadistic madman hiding behind Muslim values, once against a terrorist regime that dared to strike against unarmed men and women. Each time, the Tree of Liberty’s roots have been watered with the blood of those who refuse to bow down to those who would cause terror and deny Liberty and Freedom.

Our government representatives are supposed to be as selfless as the nameless faces that go forth to protect, not just our way of life, but the lives and freedoms of countless others throughout the world. Our government representatives are supposed to be as fair and impartial as they can be, in governing our country, and in insuring our way of life is protected. Our government’s only role is to enact laws that allow our freedoms and liberties to be unencumbered with those ideals and activities that are diametrically opposed to the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the several Constitutional Amendments. Our judicial representatives are supposed to interpret the law such that there is nothing that superimposes itself upon our liberties and our freedoms, resulting in a loss of those freedoms. And our executive representatives are supposed to insure that the freedoms and liberties we have fought and died for are represented whenever our villages, our towns, our cities, our states, and our country need to be represented to the world.

Our government was formed of the people, for the people, by the people. It is, and always has been, incumbent upon our elected leaders, to insure that laws are passed that are not in direct violation of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the several Amendments to the Constitution. And yet, in the last 20 years, many laws, Executive Acts, bills of attainder, et. al., have been produced, steadily eroding the rights and liberties we Americans hold dear. The right to bear arms, a formidable right, to insure that a well-trained militia would be available for support of our various state and federal forces, has had attempts to erode it, time and time again, without request for a Constitutional Amendment. An amendment is required as the right to bear arms is a sovereign right guaranteed by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. An income tax is not part of the Constitution, and for good reason. It is, as laid out in the Constitution, incumbent upon the legislative arm of our government, to create a budget and pay for the government through taxes and levies against businesses and to extract customs and excise from the flow of trade through the US border. And yet, our legislative body would prefer to strain the tree of liberty for the lifeblood of the average American, to support causes that do not enhance the life and liberty of the common American.

It seems in the inescapable rush for the current administration and the current congress to force America to become a nation catering to every concept except that which made America the driving force it is today, the current dominant party has decided to ignore the mandates of their own main-stream constituents, as well as those of the other major as well as minor parties that constitute our political landscape.

Although America has been able to recover from the excesses of the various parties at different periods throughout its existence, in this current period, we are faced with a monumental issue of the congress abdicating its responsibilities as the representatives of its people, in favor of currying favor with special interests, unions, the great group of people who live off the handouts from the government and refuse to partake in finding worthwhile jobs ( as opposed to those who have no other option to take welfare, but are working hard to improve their lot in life), those who feel that everything except conservatives have a right to have their feelings and sensibilities considered, in short, all the groups that have been instrumental in holding back the progress of America, increasing Americans dependence on government support, and reducing the ability of the average American to pursue their hopes and dreams.

Liberals have waited 40 years to put into practice at a federal level, every plan that failed at a local or state level. If the 50 states couldn’t or didn’t make the ideas work, how is the federal government going to achieve this, except through mandatory actions, and use of the military to enforce the actions. Of course, the current government won’t call it that; it’ll be “for the good of the people.” How many dictatorial regimes have used the same phrasing to strangle and remove the rights of the people? How many of our civil liberties will we give up to allow the government to try the failed experiment of socialism that plagues Europe and Eastern Europe. When do we say “Enough, this far and no farther”?

America, land of the free, home of the brave. But we have those who feel that our way of life is wrong, our decision to defend what we hold dear to be wrong, our basic freedoms in this republican democracy is wrong. To those I say: Leave. I will pay your way to whatever country or nation you feel is much better than the US. I’ll send you first class, one way. If you cannot look at your country without shame, you don’t belong in this country. I won’t call you a traitor, unless you do something that hurts Americans, in the US or abroad. If you wish to succor the enemies of the US, please, feel free to join them wherever they are. But do not cry, when you find that the freedom to speak your mind, that you take for granted, is brutally repressed by those who don’t want to hear you. Don’t be surprised when you and your family are abused and all your wealth is confiscated, for the government’s pleasure, in the nation you decide to live in. However, don’t be surprised, and do be grateful, if you call to the US to help you go home, and the brave and selfless men and women of our great military risk life and limb to bring you and your family back to the US.

For then you will know what freedom means…

“For our so called politicians If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget ye were our countrymen. ” Samuel Adams
