Statement by Jim Robinson Regarding the State of our Free Republic
October 20, 2003 | Jim Robinson

I happen to believe that Bill and Hillary Clinton were the worst presidents in our nation's history. Corruption, government abuse, treason and daily scandal were the norm under their rule. Bill is a useful idiot who can't keep his mouth shut or his zipper up and Hillary is an America hating godless communist power monger. These are my personal opinions.

Bill and Hillary Clinton and their minions still wield a tremendous amount of power and influence over the Democrat Party, the socialist movement and the national press. Their goals are to completely eliminate our rights to free speech, free religion, freedom to keep and bear arms, etc., and these are just for starters.

I believe the overall goal of their movement is to completely do away with the U.S. Constitution and in its place, install socialist/totalitarian rule over America. Furthermore, I believe they wish to do away with our national sovereignty altogether and subject America to domination by the U.N. and other world bodies.

Now you may call me a nutcase if you wish, but that's the way I see it. I believe that in the last century, FDR, LBJ, RMN, Carter, Clinton, et al, successfully introduced many socialist programs into our government and our way of life and with the help of the media and atheist institutions like the ACLU began systematically destroying the fabric of our society. In the process, they've moved both of our major political parties way over to the left. They (the liberals/marxists/socialists) have almost completely taken over all of our government institutions and agencies, the judiciary, the press, the Universities, our education systems, our charities, even our churches.

I believe that as long as Bill and Hillary Clinton and their like minded socialist minions have any influence or power over the government or either of the two major political parties, our nation and all of our freedoms are in extreme danger.

Free Republic was created in 1996 as a place where liberty-minded individuals could gather and share the news and discuss the Clinton scandals and other government abuses. I had hoped that the truth of the Clinton corruption would come out in time to prevent his re-election in 1996. Didn't happen. So we moved on. If we couldn't block his re-election, well, perhaps we could help with his impeachment. He was impeached, but we could not remove him.

So next, we decide to do all in our power to ensure that his second in command does not get to the Whitehouse. Even though GWB was not my first choice, once he won the Republican nomination, most of us rallied behind him and fought like the dickens to get him elected. Then we fought again to block the attempted Gore coup d'etat. Our Free Republic chapters mobilized all across the nation and there were thousands of rallies and protests in hundreds of cities objecting loudly to Gore's attempted takeover.

Then we all thanked God when Bush was finally declared the winner and off to Washington we went to celebrate at the Free Republic George W. Bush Inaugural Ball (I).

Then we all thank God again when after the cowardly attack on our nation by a gang of murderous international terrorists we realize how close we were to complete collapse and national destruction had the socialist U.N. loving Al Gore been in charge. Thank God for President Bush!

And I haven't even mentioned how evil I truly believe the official Democrat Party platform is. Here's a partial laundry list of what the Democrat Party supports and promotes: abortion; homosexuality; feminaziism; environmentalism; government control over every aspect of our lives and society; socialized health care; disarmament of the American people; subjugation of the U.S. to the U.N.; the complete elimination of our national sovereignty; complete destruction of our basic traditional family unit; loss of personal freedoms and individual liberty. In other words, complete destruction of our Constitution and Bill of Rights and our American way of life.

I came to the conclusion several years ago that there is no way this republic can survive if we allow the Democrat Party to maintain control over our government and other institutions. If America is to survive as we know it, Bill and Hillary Clinton and all the current democrat/socialist power mongers who share their philosophy and visions for a socialist America and socialist world must be soundly rejected and defeated at the polls.

And not just at the presidential level. They must be rejected and removed from both houses of Congress and from our State houses and local legislatures. For example, if we cannot remove them from the Senate, then there is no hope for reestablishing a judiciary built on the original intent of the Constitution and the rule-of-law. The liberals and socialists must be rooted out of our congress and our judiciary. Our free republic, our freedom and even liberty itself depends on it.

Just my humble opinion and why I act the way I do. I see the Democrat Party as domestic enemy number one of the Constitution and therefor it is my sworn enemy. And, in my eyes, anyone who helps to elect members of the Democrat party are aiding and abetting the enemy.

Futhermore, I believe wholeheartedly in the original intent of our Founding Fathers and in the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."

God gave us these unalienable rights and they can never be taken from us by man or government. And we are ALL to be treated justly and equally under the law.

"That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

Yes, the Founders established a government and set forth the plan for us to govern ourselves.

"That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."

The government has become destructive to these ends. One of the main purposes of our government is to defend, preserve and protect our liberty. It has been doing just the opposite. Therefore, it is our right and duty to alter or abolish it. I propose doing so by destroying enemy number one of the Constitution, the corrupt socialist Democrat Party.

I doubt that any of us " OLD TIMERS " , here, voted for Clinton. I, for one, didn't and joined FR as an antidote to screaqming at the radio, T.V., and various newspapers; though being a FREEPER didn't put a halt to my screaming at the afore mentioned. You've totally missed the essence of my post. LOL

Without a constitutional amendment, the government simply does not have the authorization to interfere in campaigning or elections. I support absolutely no limits and no forced disclosure. It's none of the government's business how I support my candidates.

Do you really think the authors of the Constitution intended that non-local entities could contribute all the money they wanted to elect your congressional and state representatives? Also, when the Constitution was written, there were no unions, no corporations, no political parties and no PACs.

Constitutional amendment or whatever, something needs to be done. Our political system is corrupted by money. For any political party to gain and retain power, it requires huge amounts of campaign money and the way that works now is destroying our country.

I'd vote in favor of free speech and no on that amendment. I'd vote yes on an amendment to repeal the 17th and eliminate the senatorial popular elections altogether and have the senators appointed by their state legislatures as the founders intended. Then all elections would basically be local.

In effect, the belief that we ~must~ control mans "virtue" is one if the prime reasons that even the "best constitution" cannot suffice to maintain a decent, just social order.
History shows that mandating virtue through prohibitionary laws foster contempt for social order.

A-G wants to see your primary sources for this observation, and I think that would be most helpful and useful. But at the end of the day, tpaine, I suspect there is simply something wrong with your theory, and the problem is not with evidence.

No 'evidence' is necessary to a student of the history of booze & drug prohibitions.. The contempt for order is all about us.

For the very simple reason that virtue may not be compelled (or bribed) in principle.

Exactly my point, - mandating/compeling, & attempts to coerce[bribe] virtue through prohibitionary laws foster contempt for social order.

The contempt that your observation arouses in me, however, is not directed towards the "social order."

Strange, -- You just agreed with my observation, betty.

Probably the social order is still firing on most, if not all, cylinders. My personal animus tends to get directed towards the people who think they run the social order. I'm sure you catch the distinction.

Given your own confusion just above, I'd hesitate to say.. - In particular because the inference of your animus to my observation seems directed my way. Do you think I imagine running "the social order" betty? -- That's a bizarre thought..

While we're at it let's repeal the 14th and 16th amendment.

When the left fill the position of judges with those who create law from the bench instead of up holding the law.

Than we are no longer acting as a Republic!

Instead of arguing the principles of an issue, you argue about the cites & quotes you can dig up that buttress your position.

That is exactly why I want the 14th amendment repealed. The 14th gave the judiciary more power than anything to date. EVERY liberal decision since the Warren Court has been decided on the 14th. The 10th amendment was gutted by the 14th.

I was not a member than just a lurker! and the next time it was white and blue but not like this it was strange it semed like every one was repeating what the other said.

I was new to reading that kind of format so it was puzzling to me. When I did join each thread was all in one line and the thread ran on endlessly unless someone made a new thread to continue now we break every 50.

It really has developted into nice orderly site!

Oh, I forgot, -- you've admitted you really could care less about the 2nd.

I would vote for that amendment also. However, that would not by itself make all elections local. In my district, our state representative was elected by campaign contributions from outside our district and outside our state (mormon money from Utah). That is not "local". It is also done to a much greater extent in the elections of Congressional Representatives and Senators.
