Howdy all! Weekend is here! What are your plans? Hmm, let me guess. Late night vote in the House to secretly allow more EPA invasion? How about Saturday meetings on the golf course with Obama and Axelrod? Ooohh! I know, I know! Let’s put on the ‘I am so infuriated I could cry’ face again, and go on TV to demand Barry to do something conservative. Not to worry, we’ll have a good laugh at the 4th tee. Oh, wait a minute. This is what the Speaker of the House is planning. Don’t think anyone here would do these things, right?
Any hoo,..
So then, let us aim for harmony in the church and try to build each other up. ~ Romans 14:19
Human nature itself is evermore an advocate for liberty. There is also in human nature a resentment of injury, and indignation against wrong. A love of truth and a veneration of virtue. These amiable passions, are the "latent spark"... If the people are capable of understanding, seeing and feeling the differences between true and false, right and wrong, virtue and vice, to what better principle can the friends of mankind apply than to the sense of this difference? ~ John Adams, the Novanglus, 1775
Latent spark. Latent Spark? LATENT SPARK!! Mr Adams would be correct about the love of truth and veneration of virtue to be the latent spark of our human nature to advocate for liberty. But now, we have grown way beyond the amiable passions. Americans are far more advanced in their desire to protect and preserve the Constitution and the republican form of government guaranteed by the Constitution. We are past the latent spark. So, when we see the violations of the Constitution and the laws imposed by congress and approved by presidents past and present, we are no longer driven by amiable passions. It is downright infuriating! Makes me want to,… wait! No, that is not me. I am not the individual who would take up actions based purely out of passion. I am the kind of person to think first. What would be the best way to make a change to get rid of the growing population of donkeys and rinos in Washington DC? How do we get more Yankee Doodles in there? Unfortunately, I cannot do it alone. More unfortunately you cannot do it alone either. But, we can together. We the People have the ability to stop this craziness. We ARE capable of understanding, seeing and feeling the differences between true and false, right and wrong, virtue and vice. And there are 545 people in DC who may all be blind to what we understand.
So, what to do? Here’s a thought. When the GOP candidate for your representative district has a forum, a town hall, a call in interview on radio, anything where there is an audience, go and ask a question. Ask them “Since the present Speaker of the House is constantly caving to the demands of the President and the democrats, he is obviously not doing what is always best for our nation. Will you promise right now to vote against him for the position of Speaker?” If they say yes, then tell them they are now on record stating that. If they say no or are hesitant to answer, then stand up and say, “If you are not strong enough to stand up to tyranny in your own House, then you don’t deserve my vote.” Then promptly leave, asking the remaining crowd to follow. In Romans 14:19, we are instructed to aim for harmony and to build each other up. But Mr Boehner has not been doing that at all. He continues to side with the middle of the road rinos. He continues to give in to democratic desires which always costs the American people more and more, which we already cannot afford. And now, when there is strong evidence that members of the administration have, are and plan to violate the Constitution and other laws they see fit, he decides to end the investigation, such as the fast and furious investigation. How disgustingly infuriating, and definitively outrageous! Mr Boehner no longer deserves to represent the republican party in the US House of Representatives. And if your local representative is not willing to listen to their own constituents, they won’t ever, and need to be removed immediately. We can wait until November 6th.
Does this sound encouraging or enraged? I say both. We must at times be encouraged enough to be bold. As Thomas Jefferson said, we must question with boldness even the existence of God. It is time to be that bold with our neighbor in the Capitol building, our own federally elected employee.
Sorry for the long message today. But I need to get this off my chest. I will be asking Mr WA 4th. Will you ask you person?
Take care, God bless,
AND STAND WITH ISRAEL!!
