COMMENTARY
& OPINION
Interesting
letter written by a resident of WA state
This is really a great letter. I am most impressed by the fact the
gentleman that wrote it signed his name and address to it.
This
came from a Democrat! I read it and it certainly hits the nail where it
would hurt. Google has the letter posted on their web site. This is well
written.......and should be read by everyone in these United States!
It will be well worth the three minutes it requires to read this. It is quite
impressive.
You
can be Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Conservative, Independent or Libertarian
and I'll bet this will hit a nerve. Our country is in real trouble.

DC 20510
Dear
Senators:
I
have tried to live by the rules my entire life. My father was a Command
Sergeant Major, U.S. Army, who died of combat related stresses shortly after
his retirement. It was he who instilled in me those virtues he felt important -
honesty, duty, patriotism and obeying the laws of God and of our various
governments. I have served my country, paid my taxes, worked hard, volunteered
and donated my fair share of money, time and artifacts.
Today,
as I approach my 79th birthday, I am heart-broken when I look at my country and
my government. I shall only point out a very few things abysmally wrong which
you can multiply by a thousand fold. I have calculated that all the money I
have paid in income taxes my entire life cannot even keep the Senate barbershop
open for one year! Only Heaven and a few tight-lipped actuarial types know what
the Senate dining room costs the taxpayers. So please, enjoy your haircuts and
meals on us.
Last
year, the president spent an estimated $1.4 billion on himself and his family.
The vice president spends $ millions on hotels. They have had 8 vacations so
far this year! And our House of Representatives and Senate have become America's
answer to the Saudi royal family. You have become the "perfumed princes
and princesses" of our country.
In
the middle of the night, you voted in the Affordable Health Care Act, a.k.a.
"Obamacare," a bill which no more than a handful of senators or
representatives read more than several paragraphs, crammed it down our throats,
and then promptly exempted yourselves from it substituting your own
taxpayer-subsidized golden health care insurance. (Let's eliminate that
exemption and put the Congress under the Affordable Health Care Act)
You
live exceedingly well, eat and drink as well as the "one percenters,"
consistently vote yourselves perks and pay raises while making 3.5 times the
average U.S. individual income, and give up nothing while you (as well as the
president and veep) ask us to sacrifice due to sequestration (for which, of course,
you plan to blame the Republicans, anyway).
You
understand very well the only two rules you need to know - (1) How to get
elected, and (2) How to get re-elected. And you do this with the aid of an
eagerly willing and partisan press, speeches permeated with a certain
economy of truth, and by buying the votes of the greedy, the ill-informed and
under-educated citizens (and non-citizens, too, many of whom do vote ) who are
looking for a handout rather than a job. Your so-called "safety net"
has become a hammock for the lazy. And, what is it now, about 49 or 50 million
on food stamps - pretty much all Democrat voters - and the program is
absolutely rife with fraud and absolutely no congressional oversight?
I
would offer that you are not entirely to blame. What changed you is the
seductive environment of power in which you have immersed yourselves. It is the
nature of both houses of Congress which requires you to subordinate your virtue
in order to get anything done until you have achieved a leadership role. To
paraphrase President Reagan, it appears that the second oldest profession
(politics), bears a remarkably strong resemblance to the oldest.
As
the hirsute first Baron John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton (1834 -1902), English
historian and moralist, so aptly and accurately stated, "Power tends to
corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always
bad men." I'm only guessing that this applies to the female sex as well.
Tell me, is there a more corrupt entity in this country than
Congress?
While
we middle class people continue to struggle, our government becomes less and
less transparent, more and more bureaucratic, and ever so much more
dictatorial, using Czars and Secretaries to tell us (just to mention a very
few) what kind of light bulbs we must purchase, how much soda or hamburgers we
can eat, what cars we can drive, gasoline to use, and what health care we must
buy. Countless thousands of pages of regulations strangle our businesses
costing the consumer more and more every day.
As
I face my final year, or so, with cancer, my president and my government tell
me "You'll just have to take a pill," while you, Senator, your
colleagues, the president, and other exulted government officials and their families
will get the best possible health care on our tax dollars until you are called
home by your Creator while also enjoying a retirement beyond my wildest dreams,
which of course, you voted for yourselves and we pay for.
The
chances of you reading this letter are practically zero as your staff will not
pass it on, but with a little luck, a form letter response might be generated
by them with an auto signature applied, hoping we will believe that you, our
senator or representative, has heard us and actually cares. This letter will,
however, go on line where many others will have the chance to read one person's
opinion, rightly or wrongly, about this government, its administration and its
senators and representatives.
I
only hope that occasionally you might quietly thank the taxpayer for all the
generous entitlements which you have voted yourselves, for which, by law, we
must pay, unless, of course, it just goes on the $19 trillion national debt for
which your children and ours, and your grandchildren and ours, ad infinitum,
must eventually try to pick up the tab.
My
final thoughts are that it must take a person who has either lost his or her
soul, or conscience, or both, to seek re-election and continue to destroy the
country that I deeply love. You have put it so far in debt that we will never
pay it off while your lot improves by the minute, because of your power.
For
you, Senator, will never stand up to the rascals in your House who constantly
deceive the American people. And that, my dear Senator, is how power has
corrupted you and the entire Congress. The only answer to clean up this
cesspool is term limits and replacing their retirement with the same Social
Security plan the rest of us will receive (if they don't put that program into
bankruptcy) . This, of course, will kill the goose that lays your golden eggs.
And woe be to him (or her) who would dare to bring it up.
Sincerely,
Bill

Ramey comments:
My
compliments to the writer of this letter.
However,
I must disagree with one point:
Near
the end he made this statement:
"The only answer to clean up this cesspool is term limits and replacing their retirement with the same Social Security plan the rest of us will receive (if they don't put that program into bankruptcy)"
That
is not the "...only answer" and the alternative is the answer I have
been stating in these Commentaries for the past 8 years---It is the total destruction
of America. If you are watching real
news, I think you will see that option is looming closer by the day. See tomorrow's C & O on our latest hero
the lame duck is trying to destroy.
DREAMS
WHAT
ARE DREAMS? DREAMS COME IN DIFFERENT
CATEGORIES. DREAMS CAN BE VISIONS OF OUR
SUBCONSCIOUS WHILE WE SLEEP AND THEY DO NOT SEEM TO BE RESTRAINED BY
LOGIC. SCENES CAN SWITCH DRAMATICALLY
WITHOUT WARNING, TIME AFTER TIME, AND IT ALL SEEMS REAL.
But
dreams can also be visions of the future but of our own making and according to
our own design. These wide awake dreams
are things we want to see happen in our future and appear to be guided by our
own thoughts and planning. Their scope
is unlimited and in accordance to what we dare "dream".
Most
of our dreams have been severely limited by education and religion. "Means" is also a limiting factor
but it should not be. Look at David --- a sheepherder in his youth who became
the king of Israel
and was one of the most powerful kings on earth.
The
only limits to our dreams is the limit we set because of the box we have been
given to think in by the educational institutions and religion. They are jealously guarding their own
empires.
I
have shared with you in these Commentaries, that I have had more dreams
realized than anyone I have ever known --- but I don't share with you my
current dreams because I have this superstition that a dream shared before it
comes to fruition is shattered like crystal ware that is bombarded with high
frequency sound.
Dreams
are fragile. Dreams are personal. Dreams are the building blocks of the
future. Dreams are the subconscious
putting together a mosaic of the future.
Dreams are spiritual. Dreams are kaleidoscopic
and give us a glimpse of the future if we can receive it. Dreams are precious. Do we dare dream? Do we dare give our dreams "free
rein" to carry us into the days to come?
Do we dare hitch our wagon to the star of the prophets? Do we dare reject this whole world of Satan
and all it stands for? Do we dare stand out and be different?
Do
we dare challenge the "... lies, lies and more lies..." of the media,
religion and the culture we were raised in?
Do
we dare dream of a world free of war and political chicanery? Do we dare dream of a world governed by the
laws of the Eternal? A world of peace,
harmony, and prosperity? Is this being
naive?
I,
too, have a dream, and this one I can share because it is certain. It is a world free from lawyers, politicians,
preachers, alphabet agencies and war. I
have a dream of the world being rebuilt according to the laws, statutes,
precepts and judgments of the Eternal.
May He speed that day.
