You make a very good argument and if you will allow, I will add on a very sad statistic about our General Election. BHO was elected by 51% of the voting public. OR, should I say 51% of those eligibile voters that showed up? An estimated 55% of those eligible to vote actually did. That means roughly 28% of eligible voters but the blamer-in-chief back in office. Numbers wise, out of 153 million eligible voters, just over 84 million got off of their couches and went to a booth and just under 43 million voted "D". The blame lies at the feet of those that did not vote as well as the Obamatons.
I guess it’s a symptom of our relative wealth and ease that far too many Americans can’t bother themselves to actually vote. Forgive me if I resent them. I guess some of them won’t care until it crashes down, but by then it will be too late. Too many others have bought the media’s propaganda hook, line and sinker! How many still get all their “news” from the alphabet networks? They need to wake up!
I mean we have an administration that is using government agencies to persecute political enemies! I know. The outrages come so fast and furious (pun intended) these days, it’s almost impossible to get fired up over another one, but geesh! What will it take for Americans to actually give a crap about the direction we’re heading?!?!
The left is merrily stacking courts all over this country with political activists. They selectively apply the law to punish political enemies and use “executive discretion” to ignore/change laws they don’t like. They funnel buckets of taxpayer money to their corporate friends and leftist NGOs and use the regulatory state to wrap their claws around virtually every industry, to include stepping between us and our doctors! Then some of the WORST offenders (Harry Reid) have the gall to admonish us that we can’t just break the law and walk away! Yet, Americans sleep...
Someone like Cliven Bundy has little or no chance against something like that, because he’s not an aggrieved minority or an insider, and he hasn’t paid off (ahem...donated piles of money to) the political class. I have no idea how many rules and regulations govern running a ranch and/or grazing cattle on federal land, but I’m certain the bureaucrats can find some pretext to abuse Mr. Bundy if he won’t submit to the federal behemoth.
And again, Americans sleep...
