-Caveat Lector- Mainstream Deception It Is A Matter Of Life And Death By: Dave Franklin
On November 5, 2002 millions of Americans went to the polls and voted for candidates duly chosen by an establishment built on its own premise of self-importance -- proving accomplishment of evil by convincing people that it does not exist. Illusion depends on collective denial joined by a majority, regardless of the few who recognize truth. Those among the smaller group now realize that desperate times call for desperate measures. Do we remain in the throws of illusion? Horrors of death and hell are the next episode of mainstream pop culture. And we don't need to look very hard to find evidence of tyranny in America today. Grandma's knitting kit being confiscated at the airport is a good place to start. Having passed the point where compromise is a workable method of coping with serial debauchery, it is necessary to take a first step. This involves far more than just casting partisan votes on Election Day. While such doesn't follow paths of least resistance, necessary steps are not nearly so difficult as actions taken by those who took up arms against the British Crown two and a quarter centuries ago. And the oppression with which average people now contend are cosmic when compared to that imposed on Colonials in the 1700s. If 21st Century Americans will restore freedom, there is a procedure for it. Kill your television. It is a source of lies. Then find truth, no matter what else you do. Understand what is really going on in your government. Then contact local officials, state representatives, and those you've elected to control the Federal Government. They must know where you stand with regard to their actions. Read the Constitution of the United States. Take your time. It may consume a couple of hours, but no more than what you will spend at a movie prepared for millions by the forces of darkness that rule in Hollywood. Having studied government's structure and our rights, which are guaranteed to every American a foundation will exist, which is not shaken by the oppressive propaganda impressed in mass consciousness on an hourly basis. Such foundation alone can stand for truth. How many voters pulled the lever for candidates they knew little or nothing about other than party affiliation? Believing those who represent us will do so based on a party platform that most of them will never even read is a sure way to fortify oppression. Politicians who care little for the interests of those they represent happily secure millions of votes cast by those who have no idea what is being done in the dark halls of power. If Americans continue unmitigated pursuit of entertainment instead of truth, the lines between reality and elite fantasy become even more blurred. The importance of this is no less than life and death. As days of dot-com bubbles have transformed into a war on terrorism, and when WMD becomes the newest acronym in American lexicon, families have more to worry about than government money for prescription drugs. During Campaign 2002, the Democratic Party aired its dirty laundry at a rally-funeral in Minnesota and on a ballot line New Jersey. That's after it joined the GOP in expelling one of its own from Congress who had been prosecuted and convicted by Janet Reno's Justice Department in a Cleveland Federal Court. Those who share appropriate contempt for Clintonian liberalism remained tuned into the GOP talk-radio machine with religious regularity. "Mega-dittos", they said. Meanwhile, a Republican-controlled U.S. House of Representatives prepares phase two of the police state called the Department of Homeland Security. That bill remains on the shelf in the Senate and will surely be sent to the President's desk in mere months as an echo of the GOP's sweep. The Grand Old Police state party had exploited bipartisanship in the wake of 9/11 and passed the first phase of its program, the USA Patriot Act. No matter our revulsion at the liberal Democrats who controlled the Senate, they were the only ones that stood in the path of phase two, three, four... This roadblock has now been removed. Jersey barriers blocking entrances at the Capitol and White House stand firmly in place guarded by federal police. Those who occupy look-but-don't- touch government buildings owned by we the people, and filled with partisan squatters, are now going uninhibited about the business of shredding the U.S. Constitution. It's all in the name of a war on terrorism that we are told is going to last longer than the war on drugs. And this latest war on fill-in -the-blank-with-anything-other-than-an-actual-enemy looks to be just as successful as the one on narcotics. Once again, we are told that the coming even more horrible attack is "not a matter of if, but when" as our borders remain wide open. Americans can deny it while they rally around their Republican heroes whose contempt for them is rivaled only by the GOP's sheer dependence on illusion. But the stakes are even more than the loss of individual freedom. It is a matter of life and death. Dave Franklin is a writer for the American Reformation Project and USA Daily .
