OUR GOVERNMENT HAS BECOME OUR ENEMY

SPECIAL POST

Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu said Monday that “Our own government has become our enemy.” He was referring to the Justice Department‘s taking Arizona to court over its immigration bill, but the plain fact is our government has become our enemy in just about every facet of our daily lives and every tenet of our personal and religious belief systems. Obama has rubbed our noses in it and Congress has been complicit in it.

We all know the stories, from health care to the immigration issue to the economy to deficit spending to unemployment….. There’s not enough room on this blog to list all of the yelling and screaming we have done over all of the issues raised. Yet, Chairman Barack, the Czars and the Congress have ignored the will of the people and shoved it all up our fannies. The following is but one example:

In 1934, war veterans erected a cross in the Mojave Desert about 30 miles east of Baker, California to honor those killed in war. Anti-Christian, atheist organizations and the ACLU filed suit in 2001 to have it taken down, as it was on federally-owned land. The case made its way through the courts over many years and, On April 28, 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the cross could stay. On May 10th, “unknown vandals” stole it. 

The VFW erected a replica of the cross and the National Park Service immediately removed the replica, alleging that the Supreme Court ruling only covered the original cross and not the replacement cross. An appeal was made to Eric Holder and the Department of Justice and they refused to budge.

Obviously, what happened here is that those who wanted the cross torn down, having lost their case, arranged for someone to take it down and our government, directly ignoring the intent of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on the matter, allowed for the injustice to be carried out… despite the objections of hundreds of thousands of U.S. military veterans and the general public.

To be short and to the point, this and so many other instances underscore the fact that…our government has become our enemy.

That’s MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
