Largest Government Spending Spree in History

February 7, 2009

I woke to my alarm clock radio this morning to hear that some so-called moderate Republicans have “worked” with Democrats to come up with a compromise bill in order to get the 60 votes needed to bring it to the floor for a vote. Wasn’t that nice of them to “reach across the aisle”? I feel all warm and fuzzy inside now. Their “compromise” consists of only spending 20 billion more than the house bill proposes. Way to go!

You need to look closely at this bill. There is nothing about it that will stimulate anything except politicians, big gubmint contractors and of course unionized government employees. This is the Democrats wildest dreams coming true in a single spending bill touted as a measure to save the economy. It will wreck economy and it will give me no pleasure to say I told you so. I only wish it would work, but it can’t.

Even the Congressional Budget Office has issued a statement saying this bill will do more harm than good. But Obama, Reid, and Pelosi (along with their friends Olympia Snow, Susan Collins, and Arlen Specter) don’t care what those telling the truth say. They want control and they are getting it. You people that voted for these idiots are in for a real wake-up call!

What most people don’t realize (or don’t really care to even know) is that your government has been slowly shifting control of the private sector to the government. To those that haven’t been paying attention (most people unfortunately) it has been barely perceptible. For the last two decades it has been happening, but this is a classic case of the boiling frog analogy. Now that we’ve been conditioned, they are taking bolder and larger strides towards that goal. Two trillion dollar plus spending bills in less than a year! And most people barely even blink.

If I didn’t know better, I would have to assume that most politicians are stupid, but that can’t be the case. Maybe there are a few brainless idiots, ( mentioned some above) but I digress. These people seem to be intelligent for the most part, so why can’t they see the proverbial writing on the wall? Why do I get it and they don’t? That’s the question I’ve been trying to find the answer to.

How does a ditsy sixties throw-back that continually spews out ridiculously idiotic leftist rhetoric become Speaker of the House? How does a Senator from the corrupt state of Illinois with obvious connections to radical leftists become President? Who votes for Harry Reid? There has to be more to it than this.

Are Bush Senior, Clinton, Bush Jr. and Obama just front-men? Are they installed to do the bidding of those much more powerful than they? It is becoming painfully obvious to me that has to be the case. Their insidious methods employed for the last half century have worked. Their time is now here and they are taking every advantage to implement their evil plan.

The central planners know that all that is needed is a crisis to persuade the American people to believe the government can fix it for them. According to the president, we must do this “stimulus” bill or the economy will be irreparably damaged. And people believe it! According to our previous president we needed to pass the Patriot Act for our “safety”. And we bought into it! We would do well to remember the quotation that is inscribed on a plaque in the stairwell of the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty: “They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”

It is not too late. While we still have at least the semblance of a Republic we must do something about it. Write, call and/or email your representatives and senators. Tell them you will not stand for this any more. Support liberty minded individuals at all levels of government or run for those positions yourself.

The destruction of our currency is well underway. The systematic loss of our freedom and liberty has been occurring for decades. We have been conditioned to believe that world government is the solution to our problems. We spend trillions around the world to maintain our empire, but can’t even patrol our own borders. Our children are being taught that guns are bad and government is good. The media, rather than being the watchdog of government has become the government’s cheerleader. The powerful are attempting silence the dissenters by proposing another version of the “fairness doctrine”.

It is time to arise from our slumber and restore our great nation. It can be done. WAKE UP AMERICA!!
