Slavery of Fear
“Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing.” - Thomas Paine, "Rights of Man", 1791Have you felt afraid of the federal government lately? I have. It worries me to write the truth about Obama and his cohorts on this blog. I'm afraid for my personal safety when I write to my congressman to plead with him on the behalf of my family and the citizens of my congressional district, hoping against hope that he will grow a spine and stand against his liberal colleagues in his democratic caucus and begin to truly represent the people of Tennessee, a largely conservative state (we voted for Mike Huccabee in the primary). Why? Because the things I write may be considered as "rebellion" against Obama and the federal government. In fact, after the MIAC report, which lists many types of ordinary Americans as possible "terrorists", including Christians and army vets, I realize I may well be considered a conservative Christian terrorist.
Do I feel worried that my name is on a hit list in Washington DC? Heck yes. Do I let this stop me? Hell no! Are these worries reasonable? If you study this president and his administration and take them at their word, then yes, I am being perfectly reasonable. If you study history, especially the history of the American Revolution, you would see the parallels between the tyranny of George III and the tyranny taking over the United States of America in our own time, and you would realize that my anxiety of being targeted as a "rebel" is more than reasonable. Samuel Adams and John Hancock were eventually hunted as enemies of the state, as subversives by 1775. In fact, that's part of the reason the troops showed up in Lexington, to find the two "rebels" and arrest them for treason. Providentially, Samuel Adams and John Hancock had left Lexington only minutes before the troops arrived, but they did hear the musket fire, they did hear the "shot heard round the world".
And yet, the tyranny we are facing today far exceeds the tyranny of Geo. III.
Here in 2009 is an adminstration filled with Marxist ideologues that would make Mao and Marx proud. They've taken over our country and are deliberately bankrupting us to make us slaves of the New World Order. They are succeeding in Europe, but they will not succeed in America.
Liberty or DEATH. I refuse to allow these fascist liberals to bully me into silence. I refuse to allow them to enslave me with fear.
I am an American and "I will oppose this tyranny at the threshold though the fabric of liberty fall and I perish in its ruin." -Samuel Adams
