Forward Colored Glasses
By Tammy Derouin
There was a time in our history when it was popular for
young people to go find themselves. An
individual who wasn’t satisfied and feeling lost may have used such feelings as
a reason to abandon the acceptable path and go backpacking across Europe. I’m not against anybody having an adventure
just as long as it doesn’t cost taxpayers a penny. Taxpayer money was never intended to fund the
dreams of its citizens and politicians; including the fallout from the messes
they make. The government wasn’t set up to be a safety net.
Progressives have the determination of a puppy on a
lawn. The lawn is beautiful. That doesn’t mean it hasn’t had its share of
problems. Unwanted critters causing damage, disease infestations, droughts,
flooding, among other harsh conditions, have made its survival challenging. With care and due diligence, the lawn survives.
A puppy doesn’t see a lawn as beautiful;
he sees it as a play yard. If not trained
properly, there will be ankle breaking holes, yellow burnt grass and many other
signs of a puppy without restraints.
Progressives are determined to be successful, whatever the
cost. They will repackage, reshape and
redistribute the same old vile product with the hope that you won’t recognize
the evidence from the past. If that
doesn’t work, they have a hammer and a sickle.
Their failures have only multiplied over time. Maybe that’s why they’re pushing Common Core
so aggressively. They need to redesign math,
science, history and the role of government.
Their propaganda department has one objective; make manure
look desirable and needed. How do they
convince Americans that their product is so much better than our current God
given rights? We have a system that doesn’t
require a shovel, hip boots or data mining.
Is this what Obama meant by shovel ready?
The Progressive Propaganda Department is charged with
convincing the people that Communism, the most destructive plan known to
mankind, is the only solution. They must
find a way to remove the importance of our independence and self-reliance. An independent, free thinking society would
reject the enslavement of Communism.
Our freedoms, our very rights, are being turned into burdens;
negative liberties. They paint colorful
pictures and make promises full of hope. You are forced to purchase FORWARD colored glasses
to hide the change. Those glasses are
expensive! They have to be. Manure is manure. It takes a lot of technology to turn it into
a pile of gold. That’s why you have to
purchase the glasses. That’s exactly why
you can’t keep your current lenses no matter how much you like them. They aren’t equipped with the anti-manure
deflecting lenses. They have an answer
for everything. The more you argue
against their idiotic logic, the more you become a target.
It’s a good thing they can’t go after you without just
cause. Whoops! Well, at least they can’t intrude into your
private life and read your emails or listen to your conversations without a
warrant. Oops! Don’t worry; they’ll never use a Drone to
attack an American. Well not unless it’s
decided by the collective that the individual is really bad and an exception
must be made. I know, you’re not doing
anything wrong but you don’t decide what’s right or wrong. The ruling party will decide that for you. Do you own a gun? Do you question the government? Do you believe in the Constitution? Did you say something they didn’t like? If it’s getting too scary, you can grab those
glasses any time. They can be quite
soothing once you get past the nausea.
The Constitution was written with a system of checks and
balances. No one branch is stronger than
the other. When two of the three
branches refuse to limit the power of one, we have a crisis. Executive Orders have allowed our dictator to
assume all the power he wants. All he
needs is a crisis. He knows how to
create a problem. He already has the solution. When will he strike the match?
There was a time in our history when it was popular to be
proud to be an American. An individual
who wasn’t satisfied and feeling lost may have used such feelings to step out
of his comfort zone and start his own business.
I’m not against anybody having an adventure just as long as it doesn’t cost
taxpayers a penny. Taxpayer money was
never intended to fund the dreams of its citizens or politicians. That should also include the fallout from the
messes they make. The government wasn’t set up to be a safety net.
Our country wasn’t lost until we allowed the Progressives to
take us off track. We don’t need to go
backpacking across Europe; Europe has come to us.
“Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they
have more need of masters.”
Benjamin Franklin
