The far Left have always attempted to paint Conservative Republicans as extremists. However, as you look at the political landscape who is it that has extreme ideas that do not mesh with our American culture? Think about it.
When the framers of our Constitution set forth the principles of our Constitution, they had a certain philosophy that was diametrically opposed to the old world from which they escaped. These men who formed the Constitution were Deists whose main interest was to form a Constitution that would uphold the Moral Law. And that is what they did. The Constitution is a moral document which the framers were prepared to defend at all cost.
Little by little politicians have whittled away at its intent and meaning. As a result, we are now faced with a globalization of our government which threatens the very foundation of our Constitutional government.
Should we be concerned? The Left has always tried to paint conservatives as extremists. However, Leftist extremists’ policies threaten to destroy our God given rights to freedom and liberty which is the foundation of our Constitution. These extremists have introduced bills which violate what our Constitution says. For example, extremists have taken away the right of certain persons to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. They have done this through the hideous laws promoting abortion. They have no reverence for life.
Our educational institutions have been overrun by extremists who have infected our children with ideas contrary to our moral values. History is no longer taught in its pure form. Instead, radical ideas are perpetuated and encouraged. This did not happen overnight but has been a craftily planned strategy of the extremists’ agenda.
Bills are passed in the legislature by legislators who do not represent the will of the people. Unlimited government expansion regarding taxes has run amuck and unfortunately these politicians don’t give a care as to what their constituency thinks. Even when we vote no, a little later, a bill is introduced similar to the one we rejected and is passed by the legislature. This is contrary to the will of the people. Extremist legislators think they know better than their constituents.
Gun rights are now under siege and little by little our other inalienable rights guaranteed by the Constitution will be assaulted. Mainstream media and social media are now employing censorship to prevent the American people from knowing the truth. American ideals and culture is slowly being eroded, and time is running out to save our precious Union. Graft and corruption abound in our government. Rioting, anarchy and destruction of property is accepted by the Left in promoting their agenda. These atrocities must be weeded out and rejected. Only “we the people” can do this.
This is not fear-mongering. This is reality. Therefore, when you mark your ballot this November, think carefully about the kind of America you want.
