Well, we just had an election and the results are in and are not at all what we CLINGONS had hoped for. Instead of a president whose patriotism has been tested and proven in a lifetime of service to our country, including 6 years in a communist hellhole prison, we have a president whose opportunism has been proven by a lifetime of self-promotion. Instead of a congress devoted to growing our country's economy and the people's prosperity we have a congress devoted to growing our country's government and the people's taxbill. Instead of looking forward to supreme court judges who believe in the constitution and the people's rights and freedoms, we can look forward to supreme court judges who believe in making the constitution anything they want it to be, in order to expand government bureuacrats' powers. So what can we cling to now?---besides our guns and religion, of course.
Well, for starters, let's be grateful that we live in the United States of America, where the Constitution guarantees our right---in perpetuity---to do exactly and literally that: cling to our religion(s), which teach that there are laws higher than those enacted by congress, to which the latter must conform, as well as conform to the letter and spirit of the Constitution itself; and cling to our guns, which are the ultimate guarantee of all our rights, the ultimate guarantee of the lives of ourselves and our families, and the ultimate gaurantee of the Constitution of the United States itself. And that Constitution in turn guarantees that, change or not, and in spite of all the hopes of Rahm Emmanuel, George Soros, Warren Buffet, William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn and the Obamas put together, there will be another election in November 2010---promise. Next question: what do we do until then??
For most Americans, the answer is that they are going to get up and go to school or work in the morning, and study or look for a date in the evening, and pay very little attention to politics until September 2010. At least, this is what they expect to do, and it will be so as long as they have shools and jobs to go to, and no one trying to kill them here in the USA where they live. It remains to be seen whether such sanguine expectations will in fact be born out for the next 4 years. This expectation has been born of the fact that no terrorist attack has taken place on American soil---at least, none of major scale---since September 11, 2001, thanks to the prodigious efforts of the George Bush Jr./Republican administration, especially thanks to its policy of carrying the war to our enemies in their home countries--Iraq and Afghanistan. Far too many Americans, however, do not grasp this.
They also expect to receive the same or higher income, per hour, for the work they do---net, after taxes. This is directly a result of the promise of Barack Obama, candidate, that his election would result in a tax cut for 95% of all Americans---all except those pesky rich fat cats making over $250,000---oops, that would have to be over $150,000/year. You know, the ones like your boss, who can afford to start a business and work 60 hours a week trying to make it run at a profit so they can pay you your salary. If the Obamaniks succeed in raising taxes, or simply allow the Republican tax cuts to expire as scheduled in 2010, a lot of us Clingons may wind up with less of a paycheck, after taxes, or even no job at all.
This raises the key question: What will Barack Obama do once he is firmly ensconced in power, entourage and all? Obama, the Supreme Political Opportunist that he is, knows perfectly well that he ran a campaign designed to conceal his far-left convictions and sentiments from the voters. Whether abandoning the America-damning racist Jeremiah Wright, after first declaring he would never do so, or proclaiming his relationship with the America-bombing terrorist Professor Bill Ayers (University of Illinois at Chicago, Dept. of Education) and his America-bombing terrorist wife Prof. Bernadine Dohrn (Northwestern University Law School) to be merely a nodding familiarity with some guy from around the neigborhood (conveniently forgetting that Aayers had set him up as the head and co-director of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge Foundation, whose $150 Million budget over 5 critical years made Barack Obama's political career happen), THE OBAMA has demonstrated time and again that he is as much a Master of Slick as his recent rival's husband/impresario BILL THE CLINTON. It still remains to be seen, at this moment in November 2008, whether THE OBAMA will choose to rule as a far-left proto-Lenin, attempting to 'transform' America into a proto-Soviet America, or restrain himself in his first term in order to guarantee his reelection, with, he hopes, a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate, and a House empty of Red-Dog conservative democrats.
Whatever strategy THE OBAMA and his backroom-braintrust of leftist advisers and billionaire-socialist backers (such as the likes of George Soros, Warren Buffet, and the other sources of the $700+ Million publicly-acknowledged campaign 'donations'---more than half in the form of untraceable, unattributable anonymous transfers of less than $200 each from, putatively, overseas Americans (because campaign funds from foreginers are a violation of the law) ultimately decide on, we CLINGONS have our work cut out for us. We must create a political party which will go to the American People in 2010 with a platform that will clearly define a different, successful path for America to follow: a policy of ECONOMIC GROWTH spurred by LOWER TAXES and REDUCED SOCIALIST-STYLE REGULATION of our lives, whether in the conduct of our businesses, or in the business of our conduct: I mean less government-enforced SOCIAL REVOLUTION FROM ABOVE demanding that we open our homes, our lives, and our children to government-mandated instruction in homosexuality as a 'way of life' absolutely equal to normal heterosexuality in every respect, stronger enforcement of all the laws that protect us from criminals and terrorists and drug dealers, whether by arresting them when they commit crimes in the United States, or by keeping them out of the United States in the first place by closely guarding all our borders, and allowing no one to en ter without a valid visa issued by the United Styates government after a thorough background check overseas. This does not mean any persecution of homosexuals in any way---rather, it is in the interest of homosexuals of every type that they should not allow themselves to be represented by fanatics who seek to impose such absurdities as a redefinition of marriage, the most successful institution in human history, in the name of an ill-defined identity with that ancient and indispensable instituion. Let homosexuals be content with the legal equivalence of civil contracts, without needlessly offending and weaknening the institution of heterosexual marriage which has been, and remains, the sole basis of every successful civilization.
