Pedro's Podium: Fighting Back

What do you believe? Who do you trust? Do you trust someone who will not defend themselves? Do you trust someone who is unable or unwilling to defend their beliefs? Do you trust a person that stands by while others misrepresent their positions? I know that it makes it hard to support someone when they don’t respond to misrepresentations, half-truths and outright lies. When someone allows someone to do this, then the average person is going to believe the lie.

During the 80’s and 90’s ever time anyone talked about are tried to put limits on the out of control spending in Washington, they would be accused of terrible things by the Democrats or their surrogates. The media would then play the charge that “the Republicans wanted to starve granny, or kill the homeless” or some other charges. When there is an attempt to bring sanity to Washington spending, they are call extremist. The problem with what they are saying is that each time it is said; they are attacking people who are intelligent enough to know that this uncontrolled spending would one day destroy the country. Each time the Republicans ignored or failed to defend their position, it only seems to say; that they did not really believe in what they are saying and doing.

For far too many years the political leaders in Washington have engaged in the practice of buying voters with borrowed money. At the same time many voters feel disenfranchised due to these types of actions. We are told what we want to hear and then are betrayed. Whether it’s another “stimulus” bill which goes to pay off political supports or TARP, I feel and it seems that many other American feel as if they are stabbed in the back. We watch as Washington continues to rob the country of our wealth and freedoms. As Washington continues to overstep their constitutional limits and marches the nation into financial disaster, many feel alone and powerless. As proof I only have to point to the Congressional approval ratings.

But all is not lost. The rise of the TEA Party is shaking up the “powers that be” and brought in some new faces to Congress. There are some really principled people that stepped up and are working toward the goal of returning our government back to “We the People.” But we still face many leaders in the Republican party that are politicians first, Americans last. These Progressive Republican’s goals are the same as the Progressive Democrats. They just want the “credit” for spending the money. Those days must end by purging the Progressives out of power.

We must send more constitutional representatives the capital. It is not too late to find or to stand up for the country. You are not alone. The so-called “Main Stream Media” does not represent the main stream view. It is time to make sure that we have people who really believe in the Constitution, including our political and economic system.

We need more people like Allen West in Congress, who is not afraid to fight back when attacked. There is no doubt that he was not attacked, even if not by name. It is clear who she was attacking and she has not and could not truthfully deny it. It is time to be a little over the top. It is time to make the Progressives true victims of defeat. It is time to point out that there is no plan for prosperity on the Progressive side. Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz is a despicable person and I applaud him for fighting back against the demagoguery of the serious issues facing this nation. Wasserman Schultz was not expecting to be called on her attack.

The Democrat party has allowed the current crisis to fester. They are the ones who failed to even present a budget for this year. They are the ones who passed a bill designed to take control of the American healthcare system, against the well of the American people. They are the ones who are spending trillions of dollars to payoff political supporters and the labor unions. Their party is actively attacking the Constitution by refusing to enforce the nation’s borders. The Progressives in our government answers are to: Loot the treasury, divide the people with the use of class warfare, and destroy prosperity.

The Progressive Socialist must be defeated. To accomplish this we must have people who believe in this country and its foundation. Those who stand for the status quo must be removed from the government and replaced with those who will defend the nation. If we fail to save our Constitution and allow the government to continue to spend with no limits there will be no more freedom. We will leave nothing but slavery to those who follow us. I only pray that there are enough people left in this country that understand the reality of what is being done to this nation and that our freedoms are on the line.
