Well, folks, here we are on the verge of another Fourth of July. But it's awfully difficult this year for me to wish you a happy Independence Day.
"Why?", you ask.
Because we are further away from "independence" today...than we were during the American Revolution that produced this holiday.
If you don't think so... you aren't paying attention to the facts.
First, we have a sitting president...with no papers. You and I could not get a job at Wal-Mart with the credentials he has produced.
He does not have an American birth certificate or he would have shown it by now. A Hawaiian certificate of "live birth" with no state seal is meaningless. Go try to get a driver's license in your state with that!
They're laughing at us in Kenya and planning to establish a monument at Obama's birth place! Truly. Google it. Kate's tellin' ya the truth.
Our constitution requires that a president be a natural born citizen of the United States. He cannot prove that he is. And for some hair-brained reason...no one bothered to check before he took office. They used to do that, you know. It's the job of the State Department to verify those things.
He has also gone to a great deal of trouble to hide his school documents. They are under lock and key. Hmmm... and you thought he was going to be "transparent".
Then there is this issue of the stimulus bill...which is not a "stimulus" bill at all. It is the largest pork barrel tax hike that the United States has ever had... with 9,000 earmarks. Earmarks...which we were told during the campaign...would not happen. Can you say 9,000?
Troubling, to be sure, but the biggest trouble with that...is that the men and women we elected to represent us... to consider these things and decide if "we the people" want them ... our trusted elected officials... did not even read the bill before passing it. They don't to this day know what, exactly they passed!
The Kenyan pretender said, "pass it"... and they did. Why? Was he using the Jedi mind trick or something?
I know...most of them were Democrats... but surely there are one or two dems that have enough sense to know that their constituents want them to read a bill before they pass it... or do they?
And then there is the middle east apology tour... where the usurper from Kenya and Indonesia bowed before a muslim king and quoted the koran...and said that America is a muslim country...not a Christian country... and called us all "cowards".
Were you not watching the news? Maybe you aren't a news watcher. I can't say I blame you. There are only five or six companies now that own the major stations and they all have a conflict of interest when it comes to reporting the facts.
All but Fox. They can't buy out Fox...and it really chaps them. Maybe that's why Fox has been leading in the ratings... maybe people are waking up. But I digress...
I was telling you why I'm finding it difficult to wish you a happy Independence Day. And the bottom line, folks...is that you are not independent...and wishing you so...will not make it happen.
You are no longer independent. In fact...you are becoming more and more DE pendent on the government. That is what this administration wants. That is what Marxist, Socialists always want.
They want you and your children so stupidly blind and dependent that you just bow down and say, "yes, master" when they tell you how much of your income they will take and how they will spend it...whether you like it or not.
"Yes, sir, master"...when they tell you that you cannot have the medicine or surgery you require...because you are too old, or not important enough or they just plain don't have enough doctors for that"
"Yes, boss"... when they say you can no longer educate your own children in the way you see fit. They are being groomed for a "changed" country, doncha know?
"Oh, thank you, great master"...when they tell you that you can work on the assembly line for twelve hours a day and get an extra loaf of bread because you turned in your neighbor for having unlicensed meetings at his house that involved a religion that was not sanctioned by the state.
Think that's too over the top? I guess you didn't hear Obama's statement then...about his beloved grandmother that died with cancer just before the election.
He was explaining that one of the ways he could cut costs in the the very unhealthy "health care" plan he so badly wants... is to do like they did for his grandmother.
In the April 14 interview, Obama questioned whether expensive procedures for the terminally ill reflect a "sustainable model" for health care.
"You just get into some very difficult moral issues" when considering whether "to give my grandmother, or everybody else's aging grandparents or parents, a hip replacement when they're terminally ill. That's where I think you just get into some very difficult moral issues. The chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives are accounting for potentially 80 percent of the total health-care bill out here."
Although Obama claimed that he would have paid out of pocket for his grandmother's hip replacement "just because she's my grandmother," the message was unmistakable. Obama is willing to cut costs by letting the terminally ill die.
Think about that, folks. He was willing to "pay out of his pocket" for his grandmother. But what about those of us who cannot financially afford to do that?
Are you listening, Baby boomers? Because he is talking about you...not your grandmother.
Gee folks...I didn't even get to mention the part about where the government took over the auto industry and the banking industry. Did anyone out there study socialism and it's effects in civics class?? Anyone?
So...sad as it may be. I cannot wish you a Happy 4th. Go ahead and have a picnic and eat some ice cream...and when it gets dark, enjoy the fireworks. But please... take a moment when you are going oooo and ahhhh at all the pretty displays... to remember that they actually signify...the rockets red glare...the bomb bursting in air... that gave proof through the night...that our American flag was still there. Real men fought and shed their blood for the freedoms that are so easily being wrested from us now.
It's night again, folks. I just pray that when the dawn comes, our flag...will still be there. As for our great American holiday... I will be displaying my flag upside down this year. That is to signal that I believe my country is in great distress.
And I do...Kate~
I do not mean to be disrespectful toward the flag I love. I am sincerely concerned for the future of the United States of America.Please take a moment this 4th to view this video..
