REFUSE AND REBEL!!

HERE AT THE ALEXANDRIA DAILY POOP, We like to think of ourselves a the law-abiding sort of people. We only wish the present Congress and Executive were so obedient. Instead these folks look at the Constitution in the way an "atheist" lawyer leafs through the Holy Bible on his deathbed: always "looking for loopholes".
We could name many instances of this, but by far the one that most jeopardizes the Liberty enjoyed by the Citizens of These United States is the boondoggle-in-the-making known as "Obamacare". Nobody - least of all "President" Obama (judging from the argle-bargle he spouts during his public remarks on the issue) - knows exactly what "Obamacare" will consist of. It is currently three separate bills in two houses of Congress that not one person has read in their entirety. However ALL of them have as their centerpiece an "individual mandate" to buy health insurance .....OR ELSE.

Well. We suppose that is ONE way of making sure everyone is covered. Simply put out a Royal Decree that Ye Shall Be Insured. Sort of like a decree that starving is now illegal as everyone is required to buy and eat cake. The problem is, we fought a Revolution to do away with this sort of thing, and much blood has been spilled to maintain it. And to our way of thinking, the most heinous aspect of this patently un-Constitutional mandate is that it will be administered by that American version of the Geheime Staatspoliezie, the Internal Revenue Service.
That's right. If this abomination (Obamination? yes, we think - nay, we SAY so ) passes, you will recieve a 1040 (or variant) with a new box that will say approximately:

"PROVIDE THE NAME OF THE PROVIDER OF YOUR HEALTH CARE INSURANCE OR MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION AND PROOF THAT THE COVERAGE THEREUNDER IS IN THE MINIMUM AMOUNTS ON SCHEDULE IRS-1234-D5 (Healthcare Criteria) OR; IN THE ALTERNATIVE ENTER $2500 IN THE BOX BELOW "TAX DUE IRS" AND ADD TO "TAX DUE IRS"; WRITE THE SUM IN THE BOX MARKED "REVISED TAX DUE IRS" AND ENCLOSE CHECK FOR THAT AMOUNT"

This is wholly unacceptable.

We want to be VERY CLEAR on this issue. EVERY EFFORT must be made by EVERYONE to inform this Administration and the Congress that We the People will not STAND for this interference in our lives and this grab for our fortunes. This unspeakable transgression must be stopped dead and a stake driven through its heart.

BUT if it does pass and is signed into law, we at the Alexandria Daily Poop URGE every Patriot to write "KISS MY ASS" over the demand for provider information; and "COME AND TAKE IT! in the box where you enter the penalty. This if taken will be a step too far. Let us hope it does not come to this, but if it does, then we will soon find out who are MEN and who are SHEEP.

SATIRE: AN EXCERPT FROM THE SOTOMAYOR CONFIRMATION HEARINGS

excerpt from the United States Senate hearings on the appointment of Judge Sotomayor to the Supreme court of the United States:


HONORABLE SENATOR JEFF SESSIONS (R-Al): Judge Sotomayor, Your Honor, we have at length tried to obtain at least one straight answer from you today, largely without success. Just to give us here a little room to fudge things in your favor, please answer this one question as directly and truthfully and candidly as possible: Your Honor, what time is it?


JUDGE SOTOMAYOR: Well as you may or may not know, time is told with a clock. And building a clock is a pretty intricate affair, what with all the small and large gears and such needing to be so precisely machined and aligned, it is a very difficult process, this building of the clock to tell the time, and one generally must go to a reputable jeweler or watch-maker rather than try to build the timepiece oneself. This particular watch on my wrist I have had since I bought it at K-Mart back in the days when I was in law school, and it has been running a little slow lately so it is maybe five before noon. But I just got a new battery so it might be a little fast so it could be a few minutes after noon. Do you think we could adjourn for lunch and discuss this after?

ALINSKY'S FOLLY

Saul Alinsky is a dead white Leftist who wrote a book called "Rules for Radicals" back in the sixties just before he croaked. It is fascinating reading. It is also the Bible of the Democrat Extremist Left (now redundant) and Barack Hussein Obama, the alleged "President" of the United States.

Alinsky alleged that Machiavelli's "The Prince" was written to instruct "the Haves" on how to hold on to power, whilst "Rules for Radicals" was written to instruct the "Have-Nots" on how to take it away. A key element of Rules is that the Middle Class must be made to feel so dejected and hopeless that they would be willing to embrace "change". Then the battle for power would be fought "by any means necessary"; indeed the book contains an entire section on justifying the tactics to be used, which include isolating, demonizing and ridiculing anyone opposing the agenda of seizure of power. An interesting twist is Alinsky's statement that these outrageous means must be "clothed in moral arguments".

Thus we see the radicals stating that Jesus was "born homeless" (he wasn't; his parents had been ordered to Bethlehem to pay their damn taxes and the hotels were all booked solid) and that Robin Hood "robbed the Rich to give to the Poor" - this seemingly justifies the "spread the wealth around" bosh that Obama gave Joe the Plumber, but in fact Robin of Locksley robbed the taxman and gave the money back to the man who earned it - and other such twaddle. Meanwhile a Democrat congressman who has sex with a 17-year old page right in his office is merely censured (Gerry Studds, D-Ma) but a Republican congressman who solicits a 17-year-old male nude dancer in a Washington dive is run out of office amid Democrat catcalls of "pervert" (Robert Baumann, R-Md). Morality to the Alinskyite is whatever works in the present situation, and that is what his entire section on ethics boils down to.

Alinsky's methods have been tried time and again but were largely ultimately thwarted in the end. Then came the Democrat National Convention of 2004, when out of the blue an obscure, inexperienced inconsequential freshman Senator from Illinois was offered as a major speaker. His name was Barack Hussein Obama. And he had been an Alynski disciple all his life.

With the Democrat takeover of the House and Senate in 2006 the stage was set for the first phase of the Allinskyite agenda, the rendering of the middle class dejected and hopeless and ready for change. For most of the next two years Obama kept a low profile insisting he wanted "more experience" before a Presidential run. It was a lie. The Democrat leadership had been grooming him from the beginning. In 2008, with the ground well prepared, Obama burst on the scene again offering "Hope" to those made hopeless and "change" to the newly ready. Like saps, 52% of the country bought into his siren song. Now here we are, with the Alinskyites in a full-court press to seize power as fast and as far as possible. They will fail.

In order to achieve the election of Obama, it was first needful to reduce the middle classes to the state of looking to someone for "Hope". This can only be done through creation of economic stress. The craftiness and sheer amorality (whilst clothing their amorality in moral garb) of the Alinskyite Democrats - and (it must be noted) the spinelessness of the Republicans in their (lack of) effort to expose and oppose them attained this goal. From that point forward, "Change You Can Believe In" became the best campaign slogan since "Ein Riech, Ein Volk, Ein Fuhrer". And so on November 5 2009 the nation awoke to President-Elect Obama. Alinskyism had reached its apogee.

But in these United States we have an odd characteristic. We expect a politician who promises so much to at least be able to deliver on a majority - only a fool expects the whole nine yards - of his campaign promises. To do even a quarter of what Obama had promised would require a lot of money. And therein lies the rub. To bring the middle class to the brink of poverty and despair had required the damned near wrecking of the economy, which is the engine that generates tax dollars needed for expensive programs. The massive and futile "stimulus" programs have further strained an already critically stressed treasury. Bailouts designed ostensibly to save industries from Chapter 11 bankruptcy have led only to chapter 11 bankruptcy anyway. Workers have been told that it has "fallen to them (who voted Obama and the Alinskyites in in hope of a better future) to (rather than having their lot improved by him) "sacrifice for the good of the nation". Alinskyism, it seems, has eaaten its own seed-corn.

Here in Virginia we are poised to elect a conservative Republican governor and conservative Republican officials right down the line. This in the state that the Alinskyites boasted they had turned completely Blue last year. More telling, Ohioans, among the hardest hit by the efforts of the Alinskyites to render them ready for "Hope and Change"; seeing little of either, have turned on this fraud, and they are angry indeed. And the anger is spreading. SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS.
