In the year 2001,after the attack on American soil by terror architects Osama Bin Laden and Khalid Sheik Muhammed, a united Congress and Senate granted the CIA the power to obtain terror intelligence by any means necessary, if that intelligence could prevent another 911.Our government gave the CIA permission to stop terrorism, period. Yet now, part of that government ,..the Democrat Party,..has turned on the CIA,...betrayed them,..claiming the methods they used were torture, and unacceptable .They also claim the methods didn't work.They are wrong on both accounts.Not only did the methods work, but they were instrumental in stopping domestic terror and leading us to the courier that led us to Bin Laden. The Democrat Party has betrayed the CIA,apparently for no other reason than to score some political points that they reason will put them back in power in 2016. They have betrayed those who work tirelessly to keep America secure , just for a handful of votes, without ever questioning CIA Agents like Jose Rodriguez and Dr. James Mitchell, who actually performed the interrogations. A complete politically motivated railroad job. They have betrayed not only the CIA, but our military and country in general,and they defend that betrayal by simply stating that torture is,"not who we are",and "not what we do", as a nation.Not who we are? Not what we do? Well then, who are we? Who are we, as a people ?Who are we, as a nation?Who or what is this singular entity that we call America?
Who are we?
What are we?
Our history answers this question , and the answer tells us that ,yes,..America is a nation that would indeed use enhanced interrogation techniques , or any other means necessary , to protect the lives of our fellow Americans. We are a people who have shown , from the time of our founding,that we are willing to sacrifice and fight to the death if necessary,to secure the freedom that is America.We fought a long, brutal bloody war to achieve our Founding Independence .We fought a war in 1812, to assure the first victory, remained a victory, by assuring that the British would not regain control of the American colonies. We fought a war to insure that all men, regardless of race , creed , or color,..could enjoy the freedom that is America. We fought a war to stop an Axis of evil from dominating , and enslaving the world. And now, we fight a seemingly endless war against a shadow enemy that oppresses our freedom and our faith in the name of an evil god that commands them to kill all those who refuse to worship him. "Torture?""Enhanced Interrogation?"Of course it's who we are. We the People have always done whatever was necessary to protect America and American lives. That is , indeed, who we are. And now, in an effort to regain lost political power , the liberal Democrats have once again tried to demonize the CIA and our Military , in an effort to energize their voting base. A complete sellout of America, her principles, and who we are as a people ,..just for political revenge. But, the Democrats are not the only ones .For in the wake of the landslide Republican Midterm victory , another betrayal of America and its people has occurred.The landslide victory was, once again, the result of the American people , doing what was necessary to secure our Nation's Liberty.The Democrats had to be defeated , no doubt about that. Just like with 911, if America was to survive, the Republican voters had to do what was necessary and destroy the Democrat Party and their destructive agenda, that has decimated America in just eight short years of their rule. The American people , like the CIA, did what was necessary to stop Obama ,...now,...before the destruction became irreversible. They gave the Republican Party , the one, the only Party that cuts taxes, cuts regulations, supports our military, defends our Second Amendment rights, freed the slaves, and created the Civil Rights Act, and Affirmative Action,..their power back, in order to use the constitutional principles that their Party was based on , to reverse the madness of Obama .Like the CIA, they did what was necessary,..to stop evil.That's what America does. That is indeed, "who we are".The Republican Party now has the power ,..all it needs ,..to stop and reverse the Democrat agenda and start to rebuild America. We the People did what was necessary to end Obamacare , end Amnesty, end Entitlements, end high taxes and regulations , end the attack on our gun rights, end the attack on Christianity ,...end it all,..immediately.
Yet now, as with the Democrats and the CIA, the Republican Party has betrayed those who gave them the largest majority in the House and Senate since the days of Herbert Hoover,by passing a 1.1 trillion dollar spending bill that will fund the entire Obama Agenda until the end of the year, for no other reason than they wanted to go home early for Christmas vacation. Doing their job of passing a Continuous Resolution , of defunding Obama,..meant staying in Washington to vote on individual spending bills .The Continuous Resolution also meant that the Democrats would shut down the government , which is really nothing more than a myth , since the government never really shuts down, unfortunately. In the end, when push came to shove,..the Republicans, led by Speaker Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, betrayed America for the same reason the Democrats betrayed America. For a handful of votes. Democrats believe an attack on the CIA will gain them votes in 2016.The Republicans believe that passing the spending bill , avoiding the shutdown, and funding Obamacare and Amnesty,..will,..somehow gain them votes in 2016 as well.
Both Parties are wrong.Both Parties reasoning processes are inexplicable, wholly self serving, and wholly illogical.
Have We the People made an error by backing a Party that has failed to seize the first opportunity to fulfill their mandated obligations and defund the Democrat Agenda? No. Just like the CIA,we made the only decision that could be made. The CIA did what they did to save lives. We the People did what we did to save the country. And, in the end, the Nation will indeed be saved.After the January takeover,the Republican Congress and Senate will, no doubt,begin to execute the death of a thousand cuts upon the Obama Agenda. Despite Boehner and McConnell's weakness , despite the betrayal of American faith that the 1.1 trillion spending bill is,...the Republican establishment has a strategy to simply start fresh in January,not now. It's a mistake, of course. To pass a spending bill now gives Obama a head start on illegal immigrant worker I.D. cards and Driver licenses which will be used to register them as Democrat voters. It also continues the funding of Obamacare .It continues to fund massive Democrat waste in general. The Republicans should have done their damn job,.. said no,..and shut down the government. Sure, there are items on this massive, pork laden bill that are good, such as the deregulation of banks, Dodd-Frank,and other programs that the Democrats use to control aspects of the free market . Sure, there are some good things in this monstrosity of a bill that is so huge , no one read,..guaranteed.
No more.
From now on, our will is the only will that Washington must obey ,..or we will destroy it. We have the House and Senate .We have a record number of seats in both.We have 90% control of State governments all across the nation. We have a new crop of conservative Republicans that will strengthen the leadership in the Party and force the Speaker and Senate Majority Leader to work for the will of the people ,..always. Cruz, Lee, Gohmert, Paul, Rubio, Gowdy, and many more ,..will be the true leadership in Washington.
But, the true responsibility for leadership is now with the American people , where it should always be. The Republican Party is the vehicle that has always implemented the policies that make our nation great, but if We the People are not engaged in the political process ,..if We the People do not hold those we have elected accountable for every bill, ..and every vote,..then we have no one but ourselves to blame for the Republican Party's failure to thwart the will of Obama. For, ultimately,..their will is only as strong as our will.
Flood the Washington phone lines. Write your Congressman and Senators.Email them,constantly. Let them know, en masse,.. that this time , we are engaged. This time, We the People who elected them, the people who truly rule this nation ,..will not abdicate their throne and allow Washington serfs to rule.
Who are we?What are we?We are the first , last, and only nation that is self governed,..self ruled, with a free market economy , and a military second to none in the world. And we achieved this through endless war, endless struggle, endless sacrifice by our fellow Americans who were always willing to do what was necessary,..no matter the cost.
And, whether they dwell in the Middle East, or in Washington,...we will continue to do what is necessary to defeat the enemies of freedom.
That's what self rule is all about.
That's what we do.
That is indeed, who we are.
And now, we have learned that the Taliban has invaded a school in Pakistan, and murdered hundreds of school children and their teachers as well.
What will the U.S. do?
What it always does.
Whatever is necessary .
No matter what.
That's what President Bush meant when he said the terrorists,..and the world,...would hear all of us,..very soon.
Our newly elected Republican Congress and Senate would do well to emulate this uniquely American tradition, of doing what is necessary ,...and use it to defeat Obama .
To Win.
For, when America wins,...so too does the world.
