No we’re not talking about the Sci-Fi fantasy motion picture; we’re talking about President Obama’s recent executive order granting Interpol full diplomatic immunity from American law.
The Obama administration still has not publically commented on the order. However Interpol’s Secretary General, Ron Noble has issued an after-the fact-response to the order even though Interpol has not publically stated that American laws were interfering with their policing activities.

“I’m from the government and I’m here to help you.” This phrase is more applicable now than ever. For months now Americans have been telling and often shouting what they want and don’t want to their elected representatives with little results. House and Senate Democrats have continued to tell the American public that they know what is best for Americans, regardless how many of us picket their local offices or Tea Party Washington. Bottom line is they don’t want to listen. This healthscare bill is not about helping Americans. It’s about power. If the Democrat’s can get the American public hooked on Healthcare and other social dependency programs, then they feel that they will be able to remain in power indefinably because if people are dependent on the government for life they will vote for the Democratic party. This Democratic controlled 111th Congress and the Obama administration have shown us time and time again with their words and actions over the last year that they see American sovereignty as something that is vested not in the people but in the national state, and that all individuals and associations exist only to enhance the power, economic status and the well-being of the state. This is statism through and through, and it’s time that the rest of America wakes up from its brainwashed utopia.

“He is a very shallow critic who cannot see an eternal rebel in the heart of a conservative.”
G.K. Chesterton
I open with that quote because it is among one of my favorites and because it helps illustrate my point or rather my inquiry. A question I have been asking myself quite a bit lately as yet another young person, embracing Marxist ideals, acts as though he is somehow some sort of utopian building non-conformist.
How did we ever get to the point where the youth of our country identify with nanny statist authoritarians and turn their noses at the true home of rebelliousness? How is it that the very people who should most embrace individuality and systems that foster creativity, opportunity and freedom turn their back to it and instead align themselves with people who want to tell them how to manage every aspect of their lives from cradle to grave?
It is completely backwards. Modern “liberalism” or statism is so at odds with everything that should attract the young that, if you stop and really think about it, it is staggering. It also shows what a grievous error it was allowing our educational institutions and popular culture to be co-opted by the Marxist movements. While we true Americans were pacified, minds like Bill Ayers were instructing the next generation of minds. As we have now see and as was told to us by the Soviet defector, Bezmenov, in 1985, the beauty of the system is that it is self-replicating. Each generation of useful idiots turns out the next generation of useful idiots. The minds, as Bezmenov points out, are “contaminated, programmed to think and react to certain stimuli”. They typically can not be reasoned with, facts do not resonate.
Each day young minds are bombarded with Marxist ideals. Ridicule is the tool used to ensure their complete demoralization. We see how dissent is treated by the progressives among us in classrooms or the media. Imagine a young mind being twisted and turned by these forces day in and day out. It takes a strong constitution to withstand that sort of scrutiny and humiliation. Most do not have it. Mixed with the idealism of youth and the need to conform, most surrender either in empty assent or hardcore ideological transfigurement.
What is obvious now is that the damage has been done. Our institutions of education, civil service, entertainment and media are filled with minds and ideas hostile to American ideals. How do we undo the damage? Can we undo the damage? How do we stop it going forward? How we get back to a place where our youth is taught principles and ideas that are favorable and in the best interest of American society and founding principles? Is it too late?

Imagine an America where we had the same President over and over, term after term. Sounds like a bad idea right? Well in early January of 2009 Rep. José Serrano, a New York Democrat, had proposed a congressional House resolution to make an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the twenty-second article, thereby removing the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President.
There are countries or nation states that have changed their constitutions to allow unlimited runs for top public offices…hence we have Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Comrade Bob Mugabe, and Manuel Zelaya. History has shown us that this process does not work out well for the people of these nations.
Much on the internet about this bill sounds like a conspiracy theory digest written by Dan Brown, but the truth is this political ideology is real. History proves that without a doubt. There are many people in the political world that think that this is a good idea. Some would even go as far to say that President Obama himself supports this process and intends to bring it to the United States of America. Obama’s recent criticisms of the defenders of the Honduran constitution and then support for Zelaya and his Marxist dictator allies would only seem to support that theory.
Some political strategists would have you believe that a dictatorship like this would never happen in America. And 20 years ago I would have agreed with them. However, this is a new era, and a new generation at the helm now. As unimaginable as it sounds, there are events that appear to be slowly falling into place to make this a real possibility. It’s important to take a hard look at how the political left is working to consolidate power within the United States and secure all elements of our great country. They are moving fast and in multiple directions. It has not even been a full year yet and already our new Democrat President and his Democrat controlled Congress are starting to show their true colors by reviving talk about the Fairness Doctrine, trying to pass legislation to limit or restrain gun ownership, putting the US under control of an International Court system, taking control of the census and vigorously trying to come up with a passable legislation to grant illegal aliens voting status, knowing full well that they tend to vote Democrat a majority of the time.
Conspiracy theories aside, what is happening now sounds a lot like what conservative talk show host/author Mark Levin says is a soft tyranny. History and the people of this great nation will be the ultimate judge. The question is will we wait until the damage is already done, like the Hitler era Germans did? Or will we be proactive and educate ourselves about what is coming and make those critical decisions to avoid tyranny?
Definition: Tyranny - a form of government in which the ruler is an absolute dictator (not restricted by a constitution or laws or opposition).
