Oh, how the mighty have fallen! The once-proud dragon slayers of the North American Continent, the righteous defenders of freedom who walked with head held high in a land of liberty, are now the prisoners of the dragon and are being beguiled by the false promises of a camouflaged devil, in the hopes of eternal salvation. But the dragon speaks with a forked tongue. This seven-headed Hydra utters lofty words of hope, change, dreams and of being lifted up by the omnipotent power of the Messianic One. He will wave his magic wand and relieve you of your suffering and wants. He will provide you with jobs, free health care and he will bring peace to the world at last. And the Lord said ...... "it was good." This purveyor of false dreams appeals to the weakness in man. The weakness in man that seeks salvation by the hand of another, instead of looking into his own heart and mind to extract his own salvation in the manifestation of self-reliance, responsibility and the duty to one's own life, so that he does not become a burden on his neighbor, or the man who would bow down to a false savior hoping that this savior will deliver him from poverty, oppression and discrimination. Such a man hands over his life to the devil and in so doing surrenders his will and his freedom, ignorant of the fact that the devil wants to own him. America's freedom, the promise of liberty and the pursuit of happiness was not a promise from government to save you from yourself, or to drag you out of poverty, or to protect you from oppression and discrimination, or dip into the public treasury to pay you for your mistakes and transgressions. It was a promise and an absolute contract on government to preserve, protect and defend your individual liberties so that you are "free" to succeed in glory, or fail and rise out of the depths of failure on your own. America's Constitution was not a contract to feed you, or provide you with a job, or "free" health care, that is anything but free. In fact, the Constitution makes no such promise or guarantee. Government has no Constitutional right to take from me because I am a little better well off than you and hand over my sweat equity to you, because you are not as well off as I. That is pure Marxist socialism. Government has imputed that right by a perversion, strained interpretations or unlawful additions to the constitution and it has done so with malice afore thought. It has done so to own you and keep you under control and to keep them in power. Unfortunately, most Americans have now become slaves to that very government that had an absolute duty and obligation to defend and maintain their freedom, but instead, with stealth, wrapped them in chains. So out of the bowels of one of the most corrupt cities in America, comes a flawed "savior". In flowery tones and inspirational phrases he speaks of high hopes, attaining unrealized dreams and changes to government that will lift you up out of bondage. He utters words of American pride, strength and a can-do spirit and for those of us who can see through this veil of propaganda and deceit, we know he cares not one whit about American pride, strength and can-do spirit. This man is motivated by one thing and one thing only, power, power over the people. His ego discovered that power when his audiences began to heap praise and applause on his emotionally-charged speeches. We are surprised that he has not spread his arms wide to the heavens and parted Lake Michigan. But should you believe in the promises of the Messianic One, this omnipotent savior who was blown into national prominence from the Windy City, you will hand your life over to a man who will instead, strip you of your American pride, strength and can-do spirit. Because no one man, or a plethora of men can give you what can only come out of your own heart, mind and soul. Others may reach out and give you a helping hand, but the final thrust to a better life and the pursuit of happiness must come out of what is inside you. This false prophet and his minion "angels" will tax achievement and provide incentives for sloth. He will negotiate with our enemies, who seek to destroy us. By his own words he will disarm America and render her vulnerable to those enemies who would see her in Hell. He will sell American sovereignty on the alter of the one-world-order. He will open the doors to illegal immigration with the promises of amnesty, in the hopes of enlisting new hordes of socialist voters. He will pander to the radical environmentalists who, if they get their way, will reduce America to a third-world country and strip her of her pride, dignity, wealth, prosperity, ingenuity, creativity and generosity, not to mention her very freedom. No man should hand his life over to another and if he does, he has given in to the weakness that inhabits the lower recesses of all men, that they must resist if they desire to remain free. With all our power of persuasion, we implore you to not hand over your life and this Country's future to a false savior that will sell your freedom, individual rights and America's sovereignty down the river. Look deep into your hearts for the life-force that sustains you. That life-force will be your salvation. That life-force will lift you out of poverty, oppression and discrimination in the land of the free, that is, if we are allowed to remain free. If you bow to their will, government will just enslave you. In the end, achievement transcends race, religion, creed, oppression, discrimination and yes, even poverty. Achievement flourishes best under the flag of liberty. We would like to conclude with a poem we wrote several years ago. We hope that it will help you visualize and seek out your own strength so that you will not so willingly hand it over to the false inspiration of a counterfeit Messiah that has mesmerized the naive, unwashed masses of America, who seek salvation by another's hand, where salvation does not exist. The poem is called: THE LIFE-FORCE WITHIN ME © Copyright January 2001, Ron Ewart - All Rights Reserved In all living things a life-force resides. The will to survive is paramount. Living is a battle and you have to take sides, For to do otherwise, the soul that is you will not count. No matter what life has in store for me, Each new obstacle shall harden my resolve. Be it fortress or mountain or just a large tree, The life-force within me will never dissolve. Should an event cripple me and leave me with one leg. I shall hop forever if that's what is demanded of me. Should somehow I be left with no legs at all, I will find the strength to slither or crawl. If I finally end up with no legs or arms, I will use my teeth to keep up the pace. When my eyes will no longer show me the way I will use my ears, or the nerves in my face. For my destiny is not getting to some temporary place, Where I cannot stay for but a moment or a smile. For everyone knows it's not getting there, it's the race, And it's the life-force within me that makes it worthwhile. When nothing is left but a shallow breath, And my heart beats with a dying sound. My mind will look skyward as I wait for death As the life-force within me seeks higher ground. And when finally the light has gone out of my soul. I will allow the winds to carry me far. Because the life-force within me has me on a roll, And I dare not let go on my way to a star. As you read the poem you may have been thinking that the life-force within us has a different name. If that is your bent, we defray to your wisdom. Our pursuit of happiness and prosperity comes from what lies within inside each of us. In no way is it, or can it be, a free gift from government. For those who look to Obama as their savior, they give in to their deepest weaknesses. Obama will enslave you, not free you.
