Image via WikipediaAfter reading this article, I realized how ignorant people are of American History. Republicans are going out of their way to show their own ignorance of this country's history.No state has the right to supersede the federal government by stature of the Constitution of the United States of America. As Abraham Lincoln said, "No state had the right to separate from the union." Does the Republican Party want to cause another Civil War in this country? Disobeying the laws they have sworn to uphold is a complete violation of all legal president under which this country stands.
I am sure the President Lincoln is turning over in his grave on the actions of his own Party. The shame of it. I for one am appalled by what is going on in the Republican Party. It is not the issue is this health care law is right or not. It is the measures that this political party are using to dismantle what has made this country great!
From Jamestown 1606 to September 29, 2011, throughout this country, we have won and preserved freedom throughout this country and the world due to hard work. Now this one political party wants to dismantle everything! If it were not for John Smith to force the English Settlers to work as a team, then we would not have this great country in the first place. Our Founding Fathers created the Declaration of Independence that allowed the Constitution to be formed later on.
As in James Gurney's Dinotopia, "One raindrop does raise the sea." Through a little over 400 years, this has been proven by our heritage. Every bit of it was done in a hell of a storm. Not one moment was ever easy to accomplish the freedoms we hold dear. Think if John Smith was not there at that one moment in history. The colonies would have left. If they did, either the Spaniards or the French would have colonized this Continent.
If that happened, it would be highly the British Colonialism would still be thriving today. It was the Americans that squashed them in 1776 and 1812. It was the Americans and their allies that won WWI and WWII. Through the years, many countries have rewritten their own laws to fit the Constitution of the United States of America. Now, in this era, the Republican Party wants to destroy all that everyone has worked hard in order for not only the USA to be free but the rest of the world.
Here we are to be challenged in this Republic to see if we have the moxie to carry on. Do we have the nerve to ride hard times in order to keep Liberty and Justice flowing through out the world? If we fail, we could lose all we hold dear.
We should never forget September 11, 2001, but there is a dire threat still that makes that moment a ride in the park. It is the tyranny from within. The reason the Republican Party is doing this is to destroy the opposition, the Democratic Party. We will fall as a nation when power is given to them that wants to supersede the laws of the land.
If one does not like the laws, by those same laws we hold, we can change them in a legal manner. The Republican Party does not want to do that. They know we will stop them. That tells me that the majority of the citizens of the USA wants this new health care law to thrive and grow. Change needs to be done regarding health care in this country. Now that it is law, the Republicans wants to destroy it like babies.
The last I looked, public servants work for the public. When are this political party going to do that? When are they going stop working for Wall Street and do what is right for every citizen of this great country?
