Homeland Security= Ministry of Truth?

Very scary. To be fair, they did release a document about left-wing terrorists, too, but that one named actual groups, like the Earth Liberation Front. This document just thinks everyone who is unhappy with the Dems is going to be suckered in by extremists who bomb things. Since when? Yes, those fringe groups are out there, but they should be labeled "terrorists", not left wing or right wing. When did the government start telling us what to call our neighbors? When did we start deciding to fear everyone who disagrees with us? People are buying guns because they are afraid that right will be taken from them, and they want to do it while it's still legal. People protest abortion because it is rampant, not well-regulated, and oh yes, murder! We are not going to bomb things, but the people will organize themselves if they see enough of their constitution being stomped on.

Here is the Homeland Security document, enclosed as a pdf in the following article:

And here is an article about how big the Tea Party movement is getting. There were two rallies in my rather small city yesterday. My friend who took pictures confirmed for me that these are our friends and neighbors and relatives. Lots of retired people, people from all walks of life, liberal, conservative and neither. All of them dislike government bail-outs. We don't know where that trillion dollars came from, AND even our elected officials don't know exactly know where it went. Let alone those who voted for them. I can't imagine why this doesn't concern people.

This is why you NEVER let all the branches of this government get ruled by the same party. Thank goodness for the Supreme Court... for now.

  1. I heard "protest high taxes" ads on Spirit 105.3 today. Possibly related to the TEA party?

  2. Thank you so much for your comment on my blog today. If I comment back to you there, will it get to you somehow, or is it best to respond to you through facebook or this way? (just a technical question).

    Your words were very encouraging and just confirmed what I am trying to accomplish with my writing. Some politics may sneak in again, but I want to keep on pointing out the glory of God.
