Our Spineless Congress

Our Spineless Congress

By Julian Krasta

Once upon a time, in a more refined dimension, the Congress of the United States pledged allegiance to the Constitution and to the Stars & Stripes. Today, the Majority of this once august body are now using every foul tactic to clean America’s clock and ruin the lives of its citizens.

They have become the machinery of bully tactics, threats, and deceit. And they are functioning without resistance.

The mainstream media and ACORN are components of this machinery: They operate, construct, and destruct with impunity. We witnessed as they mocked decency, truth, and the laws during the presidential campaign. We watched as they stepped on heads and carried Obama across the finish line to victory: the MSM with their happy-go-lucky propaganda, and ACORN with their “ballot management.”

Congress bought the “hope & change” flimflam then sold their souls into slavery in the same way the German Army gave a blood oath to Hitler as Hindenburg lay in state. And just like those goose-stepping storm troopers, the Majority in Congress consider their “führer” and our homeland as one and the same.

The singular difference between Adolf and Barack is, at least Hitler preached unity. Obama has not, in my memory, stated in either broad or narrow terms that ours is one union; that we are one people, indivisible beneath one flag – our liberties guaranteed by the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.

There is, however, one glaring similarity: Just like Germany in 1933, America today is in a permanent state of emergency. Following are some of the reasons why:

The Majority in Congress are misusing their power to force the American People to regurgitate our Constitutional rights, our freedoms, and the principles by which we live.

And if that weren’t enough, that chatty cobra, Nancy Pelosi, expects us to accept as nutritious replacements the skewed gristle that spews from Capitol Hill.

Brutes reject respectability, morality, common sense, and responsibility. On the basis of their performance, in my estimation this Congress are such brutes: incapable of feeling any empathy; and they will never express remorse over, or apologize for, their swaggering or for their self-serving doctrines, the results of which are grief and hardship inflicted on the American People.

Every day and everywhere I go I see pain, confusion, defeat, and anger on people’s faces. Bulking up these maladies is fear, because, for example, the gutless wonders in the Senate have agreed with Obama to close down production on the F 22 fighter jets. The Obama-owned House and Senate are taking the slow but very accurate route for preparing America to be defenseless against a terrorist attack.

And there is that malignant healthcare reform plan, or as I call it, “Health Control.” How mighty arrogant of Obama and his crypt keepers to assume they have the required knowledge to pass judgment on our personal health issues – that they have the right to intrude on our right to our own life or death decisions.

But that’s not the half of it. Information has just been released that Obama has appointed Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel (Rahm Emanuel’s brother) as one of the overseers of our health. How familial.

Assuming this farshtunken bill passes, where are the thousands more doctors, internists, pediatricians, heart surgeons, brain surgeons, surgery assistants, oncologists, anesthesiologists, nurses, nurse practitioners, technicians, physical therapists, orthopedists, researchers, crisis counselors, hospice care providers, administrative staffs, paramedics and other emergency personnel (to name only a few) who will be needed for the millions of patients who will be herded into this medical corral?

The Majority in Congress must be witless to believe that if Obama rubs his rubies together all the aforementioned medical professionals will magically materialize.

What about hospitals, clinics, laboratories, research facilities, rest homes for our elders and shut-ins, and emergency medical transports? Are they under construction or ready to go? Will they be fully equipped with up-to-date, life-saving technologies, medications, and treatments? Will there be critical care and intensive care units? Will there be state-of-the-art surgical theaters or will it be meatball surgery in M.A.S.H. tents?

What about our military veterans who have suffered devastating physical and emotional injuries defending our country and our freedom? Will they receive the appropriate care they deserve? Or will they be shoved even further under the Congressional carpet?

And what about children’s hospitals like St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital for the critically ill? Will our little ones suffering from cancers and other life-threatening diseases succumb under a Congressional axe because the sitting bulls in the House and Senate were too timid, or too pathologically proud, or too daft to stand up to Obama and say “No way”?

The Majority in Congress are putting their dirty details ahead of the People and the safety of this nation. Everything they say and do is planned to place themselves above the laws of the land and as far beyond the reach of the American People as possible.

They do this because they blindly support a reptilian ideology, which is a hatred for capitalism and an incomprehensible grudge against individuals’ rights. It is by this ideology that they will confiscate more and more tax dollars from Americans who are already pushed beyond our financial limits – just the way the Third Reich confiscated the property of persons they deemed “inferior,” “impure,” or “undesirable.”

If you don’t think they’re not looking down their noses at us, just ask around as to who the genius is in the House who wrote the term “mentally retarded” into that bill. That alone reveals the attitude of the Bolsheviks that were voted into power in Washington.

What other insensitive terminologies have been written into that bill? Will persons who must wear glasses in order to see be called “Four-eyes”? Will senior citizens be graded “Geezers”? Will those with attention deficit disorders or learning disabilities be classified as “ Lamebrain” or “Dummy,” etcetera?

What’s next? Is Barack “We are not a Christian Nation” Obama planning on rewriting the laws of gravity?

The “senseless” in this country voted the spineless, the useless, the reckless, and the mysterious into power. And those men and women have set loose virulent political contagions that are spreading like wildfires across our land and into our homes and our lives.

Nevertheless, there is a stubborn faith inside me that remains strong in my fellow citizens. We must continue to hassle Congresspersons until they do what we want. If they refuse, we will vote out all the Lennys, the Squiggys, the Lavernes, and the Shirleys in the upcoming 2010 elections. We must never submit or quit.

Politicians, bureaucrats, demagogues and dictators historically underestimate constituents, which is always their biggest blunder. At this very moment Democrat, Republican, Independent, Moderate, and non-partisan voters are rising up like the sea – ready, willing and able to clear the decks of these subservient charlatans. Once we sort them out, we will then sweep clean all the dirty details they had forced upon us.

And after we dust ourselves off, the power in America will be restored to its fearless and rightful owner: The People.
