In Defense of the Republic

Doug Pollard
I am a proud Tea party member! In spite of what most pundits say, I am not angry and I am not fearful. I only want to insure that this land remains the one of the sovereign individual American. This is a task that arises every now and then to test us all while the world watches in complete bewilderment. I don't care about health care, the economic downturn or carbon taxes or credits. These issue are important but they are only issues. They may collectively be a danger in that they further European style Government socialism over our individual sovereignty that we free Americans enjoy. These smaller issues may solve a problem or not, but they are definitely attacking our American individual liberty, We in the Tea party and Republican party are allowing the left to call us an extreme wing of Americans. We are moderates lined up against the political left who has been chipping away at our Constitutional rights and Our sovereignty. Almost all the American people I come in contact with are in agreement with the tea party principals and concerns about our individual rights. There is still a silent majority out there with little voice in America. They will stand up with the Tea party and shout so that we can all come together for the freedom of our grandchildren and the millions of people to come who could feel the harsh boots of socialism. Then finally uncontrolled fascism that these leftist forms of Governments lead to. The only thing between us Americans and dictatorship and despotism is our God Given rights and our Constitutions recognition of those rights and the American experience that has allowed us our extreme independence. For the sake of America's future, we the American States and "We the People" should never, now or in the future except the buying of our souls by federal Government with security and safety nets less they become spider webs of captivity . We should not pledge our allegiance to our Government but instead it should pledge its allegiance to us and our individual sovereignty, for past, present , and future Americans.
Remember it is this Government that shouts "It's the economy, Stupid" as if someone would give us a token of wealth we would all shut up. This is what our present Government thinks of us. Do they hold us in contempt? You Betcha! Doug
