The New American Revolution Part One: The Wake Up Call ( From the American Nightmare)

" You say you want a revolution? Well you know...we all wanna change the world."-The Beatles... So I thought that I would start my political rant with one of the greatest lines, from one of the greatest rock bands ever to set the tone a little brighter than just complaining out of the gate. This will be a three parter and my idea behind this is to hopefully educate and enlighten you all into the reality of the path that this country is headed for. I will also talk about the original American Revolution and try to make parallels and comparisons to what is happening now. I will also expose the Socialists and the fascists that are brainwashing you into thinking "they" are the answer. This is an election year, and I am convinced that this election could really be the "nail in the coffin" of the deceased Lady Liberty. After November, the "American Dream" will have been replaced by " The American Nightmare". Because of years and years of settling for second best and the "lesser of the two evils", we have created the very thing that our founding fathers had fought to end. The very definition of freedom can be subjective. Everyone has their own idea and belief as to what being free really means and how this country should be governed. This in itself has not only begat arguments and debates, but has created animosity and hatred for one another with each of us trying to will the other into submission. It doesn't have to be like this. What if...just what if, we actually lived by our own truths to be self evident and that EVERYONE is created equal. That EVERYONE has the right to life, liberty, and the PURSUIT of happiness? To quote the great John Lennon once more..." You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one..." The majority of us Americans can't stand the current government, but think that real change is only a pipe dream. I contend that if real change in our way of life does not happen soon, there will be no going back and that the only way forward from this point would be to the bottom. So what exactly is the end game here? What is the ultimate goal for America at this juncture? Well, what does "freedom" actually mean to you? To some it means complete anarchy with no rules to bind us so that we may do whatever we wish regardless if it is what some would label "good or bad". To self govern, however, doesn't mean that government can't exist on a federal level. To truly be considered a Nation, a federal government is required. My argument is that the federal government has gotten so corrupt and out of control, that we have been brainwashed into thinking that this is what it's supposed to be like and that everything is as it should be. You know with the few exceptions that "guns er bad" and "homeschooling is bad um kay". Do we truly want the freedom to decide what is best for us, or do we want someone to make that decision for us? Those of us who have raised children have taught and nurtured, and made their decisions for them until it was time for them to go out on their own. Our hopes were that they take our knowledge and values with them. We have all been through this boot camp to prepare us for the real world and for the rest of what life hands us. So, if we are supposed to be responsible adults and learn from our own mistakes, then why are we not truly allowed to do that? We go from our loving, caring, blood related parents to whom we are thankful for, to another adopted parent who we are indebted to the rest of our lives. I believe that every person on earth is different. We all have different needs, aspirations, and dreams. It should be our living right to pursue those dreams, without having to be forever obligated to a stranger that continuously tells us how to think and act. Sadly, the very notion of free thought in this country anyway, sends chills down the spines of the ruling class. To be a free thinker is to be a criminal according to them. The government has spent years molding us into obedient citizens by educating(brainwashing) us in their self evident "truths". Our wake up call was long ago and we hit the snooze button! Then, the alarm went off again, and again, and we keep hitting the damn snooze button!(Every election) Are we that tired and lazy that we wish to stay sleeping and forever stay in this nightmare? At some point we need to wake up, do some calisthenics,grab some coffee...and start a new day!
