Tyranny In America

“Obama learned his lesson well.  I am proud to see that my father’s model for organizing is being
applied successfully beyond local community organizing to affect the Democratic campaign in 2008. 
It is a fine tribute to Saul Alinsky as we approach his 100th birthday.” Letter from L. David
Alinsky, son of Neo-Marxist Saul Alinsky
The Boston Globe, August 31, 2008

What man is free who has to beg the government for his livelihood?  When men are told how much they
can and cannot earn, what they can own, what they cannot attain, they become slaves to men in
power.  When people are placed under living conditions, not of their own deciding, but that of the
government, they are slaves, owned and controlled.  Such policies cripple hearts and minds,
creating people without incentives or cares of their own well-being.  These people become easy
pawns in the hands of the government which uses people to its own benefit: power. 

Eventually government control appears normal and people forget to question its wrongs, its divine
assumption of the right to kingship…or Messiah.

Twentieth century radical communist Saul Alinsky cleverly conned Americans by using the Founding
Fathers as one of his models for “change.”  But Alinsky was nothing like the Founders; he was a
Chicago Marxist who tried to start a revolution to take down the very foundations of America in the
name of the poor. 

Alinsky, like Barry Obama, used that word “change.”  He wanted to “change” America, get rid of the
wealthy, make everyone equal, he wanted the poor to rise up and create class warfare.  Hillary
Clinton so adored Alinsky’s radical anti-American ideals, she wrote her college thesis on the
Marxist.  Alinsky was so impressed with Hillary’s praise of his Marxist ideals, he wanted to hire
her.

Imagine praising Hitler and having him offer you a job.  It’s no different.  The Jewish Alinsky was
a communist who wanted destructive uprisings.

Seventeenth century English philosopher John Locke wrote in The Second Treatise Of Government
that “…tyranny is the exercise of power beyond right, which nobody can have a right to.” 
Governments that entitle themselves to the private property of the people—be it land, income,
possessions, businesses, people’s very lives—are out for their own gain with complete disregard of
the people they see as a means to an end. 

Americans face this dilemma right now: a government seeking its own ambitious gain, a government
intent on crushing the American spirit in order to accomplish its main goal: rewriting the
Constitution to create a European/\Alinsky/\Marxist-style government with full control over people
who have no sovereignty. 

The destruction of nationalism is the ultimate goal, but it cannot be attained and implemented if
people stand up against socialism and reject tyranny.  Locke warned:  “Wherever law ends tyranny
begins, if the law be transgressed to another’s harm.”

As I write this, Democrats (Republicans not allowed) are sequestered behind secret doors attempting
to ram an 1100 page bill, containing unconstitutional regulations, into law against the will of the
people.  Saul Alinsky would be proud of his disciple.

There can be no other reason to create bills over 100 pages long if not to turn America’s Common
Law system into European Civil Law—Code Law.  We already have the Internal Revenue Code, my all-
time favorite bullet in the head; however, we are a Case Law nation.  Excessive bills are beginning
to include coded laws that, if enacted and passed, will mean we no longer have a free court
system.  If that doesn’t sound so bad, think Dred Scott and how one judge in favor of slavery used
a code (as well as misrepresenting the Constitution), rather than cases regarding citizenship, to
keep a black man in bondage.

Ironically, the “Happy Negro” is attempting to magically Dred Scott Americans while writing amnesty
for illegals into his bills. 

Those who wish to push us into European Civil Law and strict codes, rather than cases determining
our laws freely, are enacting attempting tyranny. 

The Constitution is not an evolving document that lives and breathes to be changed with the course
of time.  We are not Great Britain, lacking a written, ratified, codified constitution or working
bill of rights: America does not have “devolution-by-way-of-evolution.” The Constitution stands as
is: perfect, providing freedom, justice, and unifying us as one people.  Those attempting to change
it believe the Constitution is inferior and Europe is superior.  Those people do not speak for the
people; they speak for tyranny they want installed against our will.

We are witnessing great harm from Democrats, Moderate Republicans (liberals), liberals, and the
Obama Administration, who ignore the will of the people for the sole goal of “fundamentally
changing America” into a socialist nation. 

Tyranny exists in the Obama Administration: they value Marxism and violent dictators rather than
the Founding Fathers and God. 

Americans paid the king for lack of rights and ownership.  Over two centuries since the Revolution
ended, we find ourselves again a nation controlled by one man and those serving under him.  John
Locke said of those who take power to control people: “…whosoever in authority exceeds the power
given him by the law, and makes use of the force he has under his command to compass that upon the
subject which the law allows not, ceases in that to be a magistrate; and, by acting without
authority, may be opposed as any other man who by force invades the right of another.” 

John Locke described the ends of a political society as one giving up freedom to that of another
land, allowing foreign powers to control and enslave us under tyranny.  He asked: “If man in the
state of nature be so free, as has been said; if he be absolute lord of his own person and
possessions, equal to the greatest, and subject to nobody, why will he part with his freedom?”   Of
those who have power to “seize,” Locke said they should “be opposed as a thief and a robber” if
they try to take what belongs to the citizens without actual rights to do so. 

The early Americans understood tyranny; they had the courage to stand up and fight anything that
stole their freedom.  We must do the same.

It does not take violence as liberals incur when protesting, it takes speaking out with courage
and holding fast to our founding and God.  It means standing up to preserve America’s future in her
founding.  If we do not, America will fall to Marxism, which has been trying to break down the door
of liberty for 100 years.
