Let's Hear It For the GOP!

I think it is time that we all stood up and gave the Republican
Party a big round of applause. I mean, they have done us all a huge
favor. By an overwhelming majority, the GOP has prevented a
potential plague from enveloping these United States of America,
and I think it is time that we acknowledged it. Yes, the GOP
stopped a potential catastrophe. Without the combined efforts of
millions of Republicans, there is no telling what kind of disaster
might have ensued. Let's hear it for the GOP! Hip Hip Hooray!
For a few minutes there, I thought the GOP might have lost its
mind, but I am glad to report that all is well with the Republican
Party. The international bankers and oil companies, and the
military-industrial complex, as well as the presidents of Mexico
and Canada, can breathe easy. With John McCain as the presumptive
Republican nominee, the globalist power brokers who have dominated
the last three Presidential administrations can know that they are
still in charge. There will be no changing of the guard this
November.
It was scary there for a while. You see, there was this kook who
was running for the Republican nomination that had the potential to
upset the applecart real good. But thankfully, the fine people
within the GOP rose to the occasion and beat back the attempts of
his nutty supporters to vault him to the nomination.
After all, just think what would have taken place if this kook Ron
Paul had won the Republican nomination for President. This nut case
actually believes that the U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of
the land. Imagine that. That means he would never take America to
war except with a Declaration of War by Congress. Think how such a
thing would prevent America's meddling and interventionism
worldwide. Think of the billions and even trillions of tax dollars
that would not need to be spent overseas. Think of how much money
Halliburton would lose. Think of how much money the Federal Reserve
bankers would lose by not being able to loan money to the U.S.
government. It is too ghastly to think about.
Furthermore, this Ron Paul nut might have actually insisted that
the federal government declare unborn babies to be "persons" under
the law. Think of it. This would mean that every unborn baby would
have the immediate protection of law. And this would have happened
without the necessity of appointing a single Supreme Court justice.
Whew! The Republican Party dodged a bullet on that one. Now they
can continue to talk about being "pro-life" for the next thirty
years in order to fool Christian conservatives into voting for them
without having to actually do anything about it.
This Ron Paul kook would also have put a stop to the incessant
spying on the American people by their own federal government.
Egad! This Paul character would have set America back two hundred
years. Think of it. No more illegal wiretaps. No more reading
private emails, letters, and telegrams. No more harassment by the
BATFE of law-abiding firearms dealers for honest errors in
paperwork. No more using the wars on "terror" and "drugs" to
violate the Fourth Amendment. Think of the money that would be lost
by the feds not confiscating the private property of the American
people.
In addition, if this Ron Paul nut had actually become President, he
might have succeeded in abolishing the Internal Revenue Service and
overturning the Sixteenth Amendment. Holy Horrors! Can you imagine
the tragedy that would have ensued? No more income taxes. No more
tax forms to fill out. No more IRS agents arresting hard-working
citizens for "tax evasion." No more government tracking of our
private financial transactions. Think of the US attorneys whose
services would no longer be necessary. Imagine that. The federal
government would actually be required to live within its means; it
could no longer raise taxes, because there would be no more taxes
to raise.
And if all of the above is not bad enough, this Ron Paul kook would
actually demand that the federal government obey the Tenth
Amendment. This, all by itself, would reduce the size and scope of
the federal government by at least fifty percent. Imagine if the
American people suddenly had the federal government out of their
pocketbooks and off their backs? What would they do with all that
newfound freedom? It is too scary to contemplate.
Do not worry, however. Thanks to the fine men and women of the
Republican Party, John McCain will carry their standard into the
November elections. Yes, my dear friends, David Rockefeller and his
fellow travelers at the Council on Foreign Relations can rest easy.
Should McCain win the general election, they will retain their
influence in the White House. Indeed, we can all rest easier
knowing that John McCain will be the Republican nominee for
President.
After all, John McCain will see to it that our borders and ports
remain open to illegal aliens. In fact, a McCain Presidency will
ensure that illegal aliens become permanent U.S. citizens. Or
better yet, that the U.S. and Mexico will be merged into a North
American Community, thus eliminating the need for U.S. citizenship
altogether. This will greatly help the Chamber of Commerce and Big
Business. Think of the money they can save by hiring cheap Mexican
labor. Think of the plants and factories that can be moved to
Mexico. Think of the cheap Chinese goods that can be loaded onto
Mexican trucks from Mexican ports and shipped into the United
States on the NAFTA superhighways.
And did I mention the advantage a John McCain Presidency will
provide to incumbents in future elections? Because John McCain does
not believe in the U.S. Constitution, the First Amendment means
nothing to him. This is good, because he can use the bully pulpit
of the Presidency to promote his McCain/Feingold bill that would
make it illegal for citizens to voice their concerns and opinions
regarding the voting records of incumbents during a general
election. That means those sinister organizations such as the
National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America will no longer
be able to publicly promote their views regarding the anti-Second
Amendment voting records of congressmen and senators.
That Ron Paul kook would never have tolerated such a law as
McCain/Feingold. But thanks to the fine men and women of the
Republican Party, we do not need to worry about these little
inconveniences such as the First and Second Amendments (or any of
the other articles within the Bill of Rights, for that matter),
because they wisely selected John McCain to be their standard-bearer.
Furthermore, because the good men and women of the GOP decided to
nominate John McCain, we can look forward to one hundred years of
war in the Middle East. We can all anticipate the opportunity of
sending our troops into harm's way all over the world to promote
the interests of international corporations, nation-building, and
other U.N. machinations.
Had that nut Ron Paul been elected, he would have practiced a
non-interventionist foreign policy. He would have sought peace with
all nations. And, instead of preemptively invading foreign
countries, he would have dealt constitutionally with terrorists,
resulting in their capture or death, the protection of America, the
absence of long-term war, and the respect of nations throughout the
world. Furthermore, that nut Paul would have refused to use U.S.
forces to do the bidding of the United Nations and other
international entities.
However, we do not need to worry about old-fashioned, out-of-date
ideas such as constitutional government, conservative principles,
or common sense, because the fine men and women of the Republican
Party wisely chose John McCain as their presumptive Presidential
nominee. Yes, indeed. Let's hear it for the GOP!
