NOVEMBER, NOVEMBER, NOVEMBER!

I received this by email and it is worth sharing:

Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night." So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job.

Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.

Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?" So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.

Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?" So They created two positions: a time keeper and a payroll officer, then hired two people.

Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?” So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an
Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.

Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one Year and we are $918,000 over budget, we must cutback." So they laid off the night watchman.

NOW slowly, let it sink in.

Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter.

Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY..... during the Carter Administration?

Anybody?

Anything?

No?

Didn’t think so!

Bottom line. We've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency....the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember!

Ready??
It was very simple...and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate.

The Department of Energy was instituted on 8/04/1977,


TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh???

AND NOW IT'S 2010 -- 33 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE! (THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?")


33 years ago 30% of our oil consumption was foreign imports.
Today 70% of our oil consumption is foreign imports.

Ah, yes -- good old Federal bureaucracy.

NOW WE HAVE TURNED OVER THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY
TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT?

Hello!! Anybody Home?

Let's repeal the 16th and 17th amendments, modify the 14th, disband the Federal Reserve System, and vote in term limits.

I'm back, and I'll resume with a Gem from Jefferson

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.
--Thomas Jefferson, 1803.

I guess we've found that out by now, haven't we?

WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT.

We hold these truths to be self evident, that when a free and just people are enslaved by the governments national spending, their freedoms are stripped by Un-Constitutional legislation, and a self admission that Congress has no intention of following the Constitution, then the people have no choice but to remove from service, those that have failed them, both in violation of their oath of office and by not representing the expressed desires of the American people. Congress has intentionally elected to not serve the American people, not serve the Constitution, thus, having made that decision, they are no longer eligible to serve, and are expressly guilty of having committed fraud upon the taxpayer. As a free and sovereign citizen of these united States of America, I hereby demand that Congress be dismissed and elections held within 90 days, to replace these thieves in the night, and upon return to their states of origin, they be placed under arrest for the crimes they have committed against the people of these united States of America. Failure to step aside will not stop elections, nor halt the filling of your position with a new Congress person, it will only hasten your arrest, this time for criminal trespass upon the property of We the People of these united States of America.

Do We Have What It Takes To Take Our Country Back From Those Currently Destroying It?

Commentary

2009 handgun sales have increased in some states from 15 to 25% over last year. Several reasons are given by various experts and commentators for this phenomena. Many fear the Obama administration may limit the legal use of handguns for personal protection. Others fear the deteriorating economy will bring about food riots and other civil disturbances.

And for good reason. Since the beginning of the twentieth century, secular progressives who have wormed their way into the unions, city commissions, state governments, and into the Congress of the United States have begun controlling the direction of government away from federalism and state’s rights to a stronger federal government.

“The Seventeenth Amendment (Amendment XVII) to the United States Constitution was passed by the Senate on June 12, 1911, the House of Representatives on May 13, 1912, and ratified by the states on April 8, 1913. The amendment supersedes Article I, § 3, Clauses 1 and 2 of the Constitution, transferring Senator selection from each state's legislature to popular election by the people of each state” Wikipedia.

This was a blow to state’s rights as it took from the states, which according to the Constitution at its inception, permitted the states to be directly represented by their senators. Transferring the election of senators from state legislatures to the people have removed the state’s direct senatorial representatives and moved them into being more loyal to their parties and special interest groups than to the states they represent. This allows for a stronger central government.

Schools taken over by progressive controlled NEA, and the liberal AFT - American Federation of Teachers, which has more than one million members nationwide, and has grown into a trade union representing workers in education, health care, and public service. They control the writing of textbooks which teach children education institutions, not parents, are their guide. They discourage patriotism, conservatism, and creationism. They have succeeded in mentally kidnapping children from their more conservative parents. These now grown up children steeped in progressive philosophy elected our present administration.

Those wanting to take back our country need to roll up their sleeves, as it may be an up hill battle. Because, fighting you will be all of the progressive special interest groups, i.e., Planned Parenthood, Naral, anti-second amendment supporters, gay rights supporters, unions, liberal educators, liberal members of congress, and those currently running the Washington train, the pro-abortion cabal, including all of Obama appointees.

Are we up to the task? Are we willing to pressure our state legislatures to enforce the Tenth Amendment supporting state sovereignty? To vote to repeal the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Amendments? To do away with the Federal Reserve System and to return the control of our money to congress? Can we ask our state legislators to grant to all state residents to carry a concealed weapon without a permit? You can not protect yourself if your handgun is at home locked in a safe with a trigger guard.

Those now in power mean to control every aspect of our lives and they will not willingly give up power. But let’s make up our minds to do what is necessary to take our country back. The alternative is a very bleak future for our children and grandchildren.
