I’m not sure if there is any etiquette in writing blogs. I don’t know if there is a certain amount of fact-finding, fact checking that needs to be done before posting anything… Maybe the best blogs are a collection of thoughts and opinions you have while writing them… No matter what the answer is the point is that it doesn’t matter… I have the liberty to do what I decide… And the reader has the liberty to decide if it is thought provoking or a waist of time.
It’s ironic that there is a party that represents a large portion of this country who call themselves Liberals when liberty is not their priority…
Standing in New York harbor is a statue that is the beacon of hope to the world… every design in it was with purpose, the seven diadems on her crown represent the seven continents, the torch represents the enlightenment of liberty held high for the world to see, she has one foot moving forward with the other stepping on chains, she hold tablets that represent knowledge and a glair that stares unblinking toward the horizon.
She is a symbol to the world but a nuisance to Liberals… maybe not directly but what she stands for. Liberals feel oppressive tyrannical regimes have a sovereign right and that the free democratic process is a cultural thing, not for everybody. They don’t believe that the United States is exceptional in any way further it is more heinous that most other countries. They think that spreading freedom throughout the world is arrogant and have called for retreat in almost every war within the last 75 years.
At home in the U.S. they refuse to allow any vote for vouchers to let parents decide how state money for education is spent, ignoring where the parent feels their child will get a better education. Instead they force you to go to your local public school no matter how inept. They support legislation to change the definition of marriage against the people’s will and worse campaign against the right to vote on that amendment calling those who disagree with them “haters” and “bigots”. They’d rather adoption agencies close down completely than give them the right to act within their freedom of religion and prioritize heterosexual homes over homosexual homes. They cannot compete with conservative talk radio so they create a law that they want to implement with the inauguration of Obama that will making it illegal to speak against someone politically unless there is equal time given to the opposing side. Yet they do not apply that law on TV, media, or our universities. They refuse to allow a vote to lift the ban on OCS drilling to permanently decrease gas prices because they want to instead decrease fuel consumption by forcing you with high prices. Liberals have made it illegal to smoke in some public places, on any California Beaches, and in some entire cities. They have just passed a law in California making it illegal for restaurants to sell foods with trans-fats, and outlawed peanut butter in schools because 1 in every 3000 kids are allergic. They passed a law that says how hot or cold your house can be, as well as tax you 48% of any inheritance money you get. They want to increase taxes generally so that you do not have the freedom to spend your money they way you want. Further they tell you that they know how to spend it better yet have no available examples. They have passed a federal law that states that any non-profit organization (churches) cannot appear to endorse any political candidate, or they will lose their non-profit tax exemption. Liberals have legislated whom you can hire, and now how much you pay them regardless of your assessment of their individual habbits… They support union extortion of money from its members and have made it so that union members have no legal right to demand to know how the union dues are spent. Further that Union heads are allowed to know how union members vote for local and federal elections as well as tell them whom they “should” vote for. Last year liberals campaigned against the right for union workers to be able to opt out of the dues paying if they did not agree with the political affiliations of their union. Further garnished more dues during that campaign from union members to help fund the fight against union member’s rights to opt out of dues. More recently more than half of Californians voted to define marriage as man-woman yet 100% of all teachers paid into “No on Prop 8” since the teachers unions were the biggest contributors to that campaign…Liberals have put a gag on speaking out against sexual misconduct in public and have protected sexual predators under the freedom of speech act. They have legislated abortion “rights” and refuse to allow it to be put on any ballot. They try to ban any military recruiters from federally funded university campuses. Finally, Liberals have even tried to block military votes from the last presidential election because of their date of delivery but worse were the cause of those specific votes being entered late.
Why are they called Liberal again?
Below is the engraving on the statue of Liberty, please read it…
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows worldwide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
with silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
