Rally for the Democratic Republic!!

The Liberals and Conservatives who had the courage to stand against the monstrosity of the Bush/Frank Plutocratic bill that almost passed the House are the last vestiges of Congressional power and bravery left standing between American liberty and the Autocratic Plutocracy that appears to be the goal of the "moderates."

Despite catcalls from the financial media it is and has been THEY, the Bush/Frank allies, who have been idiotic, blind and negligent regarding the economy for EIGHT years!!! For that long we have heard the "fundamentals are sound", "housing will always rise", "stocks will always rise" etc etc.... Now, in the last 72 hours or so, these financial wizards have the utter gall and audacity to proclaim that the coming Depression (and it is just beginning) is the fault of the last vestiges of Legislative bravery left who voted down the bill, the last defenders of the Republic. These courageous Men and Women should be held UP, NOT torn down....they will be remembered as the last of those who truly deserve to be called United States Congressman.

Make no mistake about it....the long knives are now out. The Fed, the Banks, Bush/Cheney, The Republican Party, the Democratic Party and the fat and fetid wealthy cow that has been sucking the tit of the government for 100 years is now coalescing in a dirty alliance to destroy the Democratic Republic by blaming the Congress for the coming Depression, the Depression that was created by their own wallowing in the fetid slop of government deals, perks, kickbacks, contracts, tax breaks, and truly historically MASSIVE scandalous and criminal accumulation of debt.

You ask....what is my "solution"?? Here is my solution....good governance. Rally for the Republic. Get back to doing what government was created for.....DEFEND us against the gathering storm of our foreign enemies rapidly combining, conspiring and salivating over our supposed demise, PROTECT the Poor:the truly poor from the massive Depression about to descend upon us. The government must GET OUT of the business of subsidizing the Rich and Middle Class, that is unsustainable and leaves the poor and weak to fend for themselves. We need massive help for the rapidly increasing destitute citizens of this nation, but the government must make huge cuts in subsidies for Middle class and wealthy people and corporations.

Our government didn't get into the massive debt that is destroying us by helping poor people. It got into debt by wedding itself to already powerful people in an unholy alliance of the gold ringed hand of government washing the pink, scrubbed, fat hand of unearned wealth.

God Bless the Honorable Mike Pence, God Bless the Honorable Denis Kucinich, God Bless the Honorable Sheila Jackson Lee, God Bless the Honorable Ron Paul, God Bless Senator Jim Bunning, God Bless Mike Huckabee(the rightful vice-presidential nominee), and God Bless the American People who, at least for today, truly deserve to be called a Free People exercising their sovereign authority over the government. In this country THE PEOPLE ARE THE STATE!! NOT THE GOVERNMENT!! and the State is always supreme over the government.

At least for today I have some faith again that the country I used to believe in might still exist, that free institutions guided by a free constitution in the service of a Free Republic might still be possible. IF and only IF, the courage that the leaders mentioned above and others and of the People persists. The Democratic Republic is kept alive as long as the People DEMAND accountability from government. It is not cynicism that is demanded now but activism.

Now the battle is joined to defend the Republic and the long knives are out to destroy it. Those who guided us into this mess will use the disastrous economy created by them as a weapon to try to destroy Liberty and the Republic. Courage is all that is left to defend it. Get up, stand up, rise up......

John.

For the most part, I agree with you, especially on corporate subsidies. America is far too addicted to debt. Looked at that way, this scramble to save the credit markets looks entirely backwards...

Joy, the problem is not a lack of credit, its a dependence on credit. All of the so-called "solutions" to the crisis are simply designed as the equivalent of giving more heroine to the addict and calling it a triumph.

Joy, i know you have disdain for Republicans in congress but I really think a hope for the future is a Left/Right alliance, at least a temporary alliance, of people who want to preserve the Rule of Law and the Constitution. Mark my words, this crisis will be used to threaten those basic American concepts, Congress needs to show backbone and stand firm on the basics.

In your heart, you know I'm right :)

Take care, John.
