Apparently His Eminency the Lord Messiah Obama is ready to announce his vice presidential candidate. While the political pundits are busy speculating on whether it will be Joe Biden, Evan Bayh or Tim Kaine, I would suggest that a more appropriate choice would be none of the above. Rather, he should focus on someone who would have far greater appeal to the core values of today’s moveon.org Democrat Party such as Osama Bin Laden, Mahmoud Ahmedinejad or maybe even Tim Castleman.
While you are probably familiar with the terrorists that our Democrat leadership have become so enamored of, chances are you have never heard of Tim Castleman who is the creator of Drive55.org, an organization that seeks to have the government reimpose the national 55 m.p.h. speed limit which, aside from Jimmy Carter and Nancy Pelosi’s Democrat controlled Congress, was the biggest failure in American history.
The reality is that the 55 mph speed limit created more criminals than any act of government since prohibition. The proponents of this government fascism claim that it will save oil and reduce fatalities. Of course, liberals being liberals don’t like the facts which once again stand in the way of their fiction. The fact is that since the repeal of the national 55 mph speed limit traffic fatalities have declined from 1.69 to 1.37 per 100 million vehicle miles travelled.
The only beneficiaries of this nanny state government idealism are local police departments, insurance companies who get the benefit of the police state abuse of individual liberty through ticket surcharges and of course radar detector companies.
This type of government abuse will result in the cost of goods and services rising as it will take longer for items to be shipped. Services will suffer due to employees being able to fit less onto their schedule as they are forced to spend more time in their vehicles listening to National Pinko Radio which will be all that is on the air after Democrats ban free speech vis a vis the insidious and inappropriately named Fairness Doctrine.
The reality is that this type of fascism reflects why domestic liberals are every bit as dangerous as Islamic terrorists. While the latter want to kill us physically, domestic liberals want to kill our spirit and belief in rugged individualism. I ask you, is it better to live on your knees or die on your feet fighting for what you believe in?
I would urge you to write your Congressman and tell them exactly how you feel about this nanny state idealism that already proved itself to be an abysmal failure. Tell them that the 2% of oil that we would save from this artificially low speed is a mere drop in the bucket from what could be achieved by drilling here and drilling now. Let them know that you have no intention of ever complying with such a hideous law that smacks of liberal fascism and will do everything in your power to remove anyone who supports such heinous legislation from elected office.
Don’t wait, because Congressional Democrats are already on the move to undermine your freedom. Rep. Jackie Speier, Democrat (of course) from California (now there’s a surprise) has proposed a bill that would reduce the speed limit to 65 on rural highways and 60 on urban highways. It’s time that real Americans stand up and take back the reigns which can only happen by getting out to vote against B. Hussein Obama and then removing the moveon.org Democrat party from power.
For those of you who doubt the agenda of today’s Democrats includes turning our nation into a police state take a look at their record. These are the people who have banned plastic bags, banned public prayer (unless you are Muslim), banned transfats, banned economic freedom, banned smoking and banned cell phones. These are the people who want to ban free speech and ban your right to protect your family. They are all about government control of the nanny state whose power comes on the vote of the young, the dumb and the uninformed. It is time to say that enough is enough.
Now that you are thoroughly pissed off and disgusted, do yourself a favor and send Tim Castleman a note letting him know exactly how you feel about his attempts to undermine our freedom. Let him know that we as a nation won’t stand for the rogue attempts to control our lives under the guise of the great global warming hoax. He needs to understand that his attempts to push something so un-American shouldn't result in publicity from USA Today but rather charges of sedition.
