The Future of Freedom

Anyone who does not know that our "freedom" is in jeopardy is either asleep or too wrought up in their own activities to notice what is happening around them. Under the current administration, the President has declared his intention to provide health coverage for everybody, and to, in effect, redistribute wealth from those who possess wealth to those who do not. He has caused a major infusion of capital into the private sector as a means to control the receiving industries. He has demonstrated his willingness to use whatever means available to control the personal behaviour of individuals as well as corporations.

The President has reneged on most of his campaign promises and stated goals. Despite that fact, he still maintains a following who worships him, will do his bidding, forgive his blunders, and overlook the fact that many of his appointees are tax cheats, or worse. He is well on his way to set up a Socialist form of government. He will bypass the Constitution to achieve his agenda.

One of our basic rights, "free speech," is under attack. He, among others in high places, wants to silence certain radio personalities who espouse a conservative political view. He wants to control public education with local infusions of funds; using that lever to dictate policies and curriculum. He is supporting "union" takeovers of industry. He is selectively bracing up financial institutions of his choosing, with no explanation or apology.

Just one year ago, in another publication, I predicted that if Obama should be elected President he would bring on the most divisive administration since the American Civil War. I now take a bow, because my fears are being fulfilled. I hope and pray that enough American patriots will see the consequences of what is unfolding to put the brakes on Obama's mistaken idealism.

Hi Tim,

Looks good. Don't worry about the length. I've got a couple of long-winded ones that will take up any extra space.

Thanks again,

Ed
