A Political Coup in the
USA
Linguistically,
coup d’état is French
for “a strike to the state” (coup [blow], d’ [to
the] état, [state]).[1]
Analogously, the term also is casually used to mean gaining advantage
of a rival, either by a group or a person, e.g. an intelligence
coup, boardroom coup.
After watching the events
unfold in the political arena over the past months and considering
all that has happened and where we are currently, I believe we, the
conservative base of the Republican party, are victims of the most
remarkable Political Coup in the history of this nation.
When I look at the political
field just 1 month ago and the very viable choices we had to overcome
the socialist agenda of liberals in the Democratic and to a lesser
extent the Republican parties, I am stunned at how quickly our
choices were whittled down. The Republican Party stands on the
threshold of becoming another arm of the liberal socialists in this
country. If they are successful we will be marginalized.
The players have been
members of both the Democratic and Republican parties as well as the
MSM as well as some pseudo conservative media outlets. I think there
have been a lot of pawns in this coup: Christian leaders, some
conservative leaders and conservative talk show hosts as well as many
in the blogosphere and of course the American voters. I have been
listening to numerous conservatiave talk shows and reading on many
blog sites and online newsources, both conservative and liberal, and
this has been absolutely incredible.
I think true conservatives
have been so busy with the brush fires that were being set, meaning a
rather volatile Republican field, that we missed the missile coming
at us from the rear, RINO John McCain.
The Republican Party and
more importantly the conservative base are about to be assimilated
into the liberal socialist movement of those who have sat for years
on the opposite side of the aisle. That aisle has been narrowing
for a number of years and the only way that can happen is if those on
the right are moving left.
This narrowing and blurring
of lines and principles has not been happening fast enough for
liberals so with the help of their liberal friends on our side of the
aisle, which seems to be growing, they are set to execute a
spectacular coup within the Republican Party, using their point man
John McCain. They are getting plenty of help from the liberal media,
liberal governors, democrats and many left of center moderates &
libeals within the Republican Party, and in addition are using what I
believe are very underhanded, yet effective, political ruses. For
example: independents and dems voting as republicans in the
primaries. Boldly lying in Clintonesque fashion about their
opponents, ie McCain accusing Romney of wanting timetables to pull
out of Iraq. That lie has been totally debunked even by the liberal
media, they knew they couldn't get away with it, can you say Dan
Rather. Yet, Senator McCain continues to use it even when he is
confronted with the undeniable truth.
If we do not wake up
immediately it is going to be too late. If this Coup is successful
this is what we will have to look forward to:
*More McCain-Feingold
legislation taking away more freedom of speech.
*We will have open
borders and be assimilating millions of Illegal Aliens overnight
with another amnesty bill like McCain-Kennedy, not to mention the
threat to our National Security. Can you say “Dirty Bomb”.
*We will have more
liberal activist judges appointed to the supreme court, remember
McCains assertion in the past weeks about Justice Ahlito being to
conservative, and don't forget his leadership of the Gang of 14.
*Higher taxes, John
McCain did vote against the Bush Tax cuts and not for the reason he
is stating now. He took the Liberal/socialist line of class
warfare: too much for the rich and not enough for the poor. This
too is a matter of record that contradicts his current lie.
*We will have
reimportation of drugs destroying our drug companies, endangering
unsuspecting Americans and gutting research that could have led to
cures.
*We will have more
costly medical lawsuits burgeoning an already faltering medical
system through more of the felonious “Patients Bill of Rights”
type of legislation we saw in that McCain-Kennedy-Edwards bill.
The only ”bill of rights” is for the trial lawyers, and the ones
who are going to pay are the patients and their employers.
*More McCain-Lieberman
which is a disasterous Green House Gas boondocggle that is going to
Hamper more American industries and enterprises and force them to
move to other countries.
*We will have more
McCain-ACLU defense of enemy terrorists and limit our military's
ability to get vital information out of prisoners through known
techniques, such as waterboarding . It works, and while very
unpleasant it's not torture.
*We will also end up
with Guantanamo Bay closed and we will have Al-Queda terrorists in
our prisons who will immediately have the same rights under our
constitiution that our citizens have. The supreme court has
continued to interpret that they are not eligible for those rights
outside our borders. Once here it is another matter.
*We can probably expect
to see our military downsized and gutted like we saw through the
ninties and which has left us struggling to handle the challenges we
have faced since 9/11.
*We may also be at risk
as far as our second ammendment right to bear arms, as McCain has
had a mixed and troubling record on this issue. In view of his
evolving pro-liberal socialist stances I believe this is a real
threat.
