Don't Slouch Slowly Into Slavery
Electronic Telegraph ^ | 20 April 1997 | Ambrose Evans-Pritchard

Posted on 11/05/2016 2:18:54 PM PDT by Flintlocks Wife

“Critics tell me that I have invested too much emotion in my quarrel with the Clintons. To that I plead guilty. It comes from befriending so many of their victims. I am content to be blacklisted as the "mad scribbler" - as the Washington Post called me this week - for I am confident that one day historians are going to view Clinton as a the last great cad of the 20th century, or worse.”

“To the American people I bid a fond farewell. Guard your liberties. It is the trust of each generation to pass a free republic to the next. And if I know you right, you will rouse yourself from slumber to ensure exactly that.”

The 2016 presidential election is in many ways a battle between the once traditional idea of freedom in the form of the Nation State and that of the New World Order ruled by unelected bureaucrats as in Europe’s E.U. A perusal of a popular video on Brexit clarifies this beautifully. This can be found on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com) under "Brexit: The Movie" and is well worth watching. Presidential candidate Donald J. Trump’s campaign is trying to pull us back from the nightmare of a New World Order run by faceless bureaucrats who would run our lives without representation. Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and others, backed by George Soros and a likeminded cabal of individuals are trying to destroy our precious nation by importing tremendous numbers of biased and counter-cultural illegals and placing them in strategic districts while giving them the vote resulting in only one victorious party, any other parties and organizations being impotent. One need only look at the state of California with its 55 Electoral College votes that go Democrat because of the influx of those newcomers who will vote in that direction. Through the government’s importation of many more low wage workers and companies’ sending of jobs overseas, the remaining middle class will lose even more sources of employment and no longer be able afford families, thereby losing out on the joy of having children and fulfilling lives. The proportion of the native population will gradually decrease. They will remain but be overwhelmed by numbers, and the American Dream will be lost. Some immigrants have much to offer here, but they should be vetted to serve American needs, not brought in to overthrow our valuable institutions of freedom and the Constitution.

Some of our women feel that those of a Republican persuasion are waging a “War on Women” and favor the Democrat approach. Perhaps they should check out the situation in portions of Europe, such as Sweden now known as the “Rape Capital of the World”. Some women there have taken to dying their blond hair black to avoid unwanted attention and rape. The Gates of Vienna site (http://gatesofvienna.net) contains enlightening information on the European situation and is well worth a look. These problems will soon come here if not changed. American women would probably prefer not to live under a Sharia compliant situation. They should do their utmost to become informed on this topic and vote accordingly.

Perhaps it is time to revisit Ambrose Evans-Pritchard’s Letter to America. This sad letter, “Goodbye, good riddance” to the American people he wrote upon his return to Great Britain. Mr. Evans-Pritchard had been the Washington correspondent for The Telegraph and one of the few at that time who kept the spirit of liberty and independent inquiry alive during those dismal days in 1997 at the beginning of Bill Clinton’s second term. His Clinton concerns were expressed in several excellent articles and his book, "The Secret Life of Bill Clinton: the unreported stories" (Regnery Publishing, Inc., Washington, D.C., 1997); and he was sorely disappointed that the votes of the people gave that second term to President Clinton. A perusing of this letter is now timely. The link to “Goodbye, good riddance” can be found at:

The second to last paragraph contains:

“Critics tell me that I have invested too much emotion in my quarrel with the Clintons. To that I plead guilty. It comes from befriending so many of their victims. I am content to be blacklisted as the "mad scribbler" - as the Washington Post called me this week - for I am confident that one day historians are going to view Clinton as a the last great cad of the 20th century, or worse.”

But the last one holds a special dire warning to which we should pay special attention during this 2016 election:

“To the American people I bid a fond farewell. Guard your liberties. It is the trust of each generation to pass a free republic to the next. And if I know you right, you will rouse yourself from slumber to ensure exactly that.”

Mr. Trump has said this election of 2016 is our last chance. He may well be right. Don't slouch slowly into slavery.

I promise to be a very troublesome slave and to endanger my masters lives every day.
