ONLY YOU CALLS CAN STOP THIS AMNESTY..? JAM THE SWITCHBOARDS TODAY!

There is a RED ALERT today as Leading Democrats, trying to force on the American public another AMNESTY, without public knowledge. Go here to read about this current travesty of Immigration laws. This will give millions of aliens, fast access to your tax dollars in welfare payments. You decide at WWW.numbersusa.com. Toll free your Democratic representative at 202-224-3121 )

Only unrelenting American patriots can stop the move towards any AMNESTY. State laws such as Arizona, Georgia, Oklahoma and Rhode Island has shown that by closing the doors to illegal immigrants, their unemployment rate was reduced. With illegal aliens fleeing these states, predator employers have had to hire legal citizens and green card holders. Here is an amazing exposure of Arizona economic recovery!

The lack of any substantive comment on Mr. Nethaway’s column above is troubling.

He not only focuses on a major cause of our dysfunctional government, but implicitly reveals the Achilles Heel of our democratic republic system … the effects of the first person singular political leaders’ judgment calls, using the term “judgment” in its broadest sense, and upon citizens’ voting choices.

The first person singular is a human trait, of course, that requires a strong sense of ethics and statesmanship to overcome. While Mr. Nethaway wishfully “hopes” for an end to partisanship in reliance upon the so-called “millennial generation” (good grief - another label), there is nothing in his rationale providing comfort that our young adults are devoid of the first person singular malady.

Our political leaders of today will continue to behave as they always have. Google Einstein’s definition of “insanity” for clarification.

From one who has lived life as an American for nearly 70 years, what it will take is for voters to fully and completely reject all existing elected leaders, doing so with the clear message conveyed to exit pollsters, letters to editors, a barrage of letters to both the DNC and RNC and other avenues that it’s well past time for America’s political leadership to grow up.

Sadly, given the apparent paucity of interest in Mr. Nethaway’s top notch column above, prepare for more of the same, including the continued deterioration and ultimate demise of the American experiment.

To Mr. Nethaway: Please keep it up. Yours is a most important message. Maybe you can make a miracle happen.

You can’t un-legislate. You can’t un-govern. You can’t remove the thousands of laws per citizen that have been enacted since our founding fathers put the constitution in force.

There is only one solution. Eject the current leaders. Erase the current body of legislation and start over. Enforce the Constitution. This is the fundamental reason for the Second Amendment

Unplug and reboot.

I believe it’s called “revolution”
