This is not a troll, just an interesting read.<br /><br />That Dosen't Sound Like Freedom to me<br />Written by: Carolyn Hileman<br /><br />They want to take away our right to pray and they want to take away our guns so that we cant fight back. They want to take away our right to vote as they proved both in Florida and California. They want to convince us all that we cannot possibly govern ourselves, that we must have them to lead us. They want us to believe that good is evil and evil is good, that only they have our best interest in mind.<br /><br />They refuse to debate their actions, instead focusing on trying to destroy anyone who speaks the truth. Anyone who dares speak out against their tyranny is investigated, humiliated and if not careful destroyed. They have had a systematic plan to control the courts so as to insure their victory in the courts as well as congress. They have taxed the people to the point that working people actually need the services they are forced to pay for.<br /><br />They have forced their beliefs on us, to the point of redundancy. They have made their causes mandatory and dip in our pockets with increased frequency to pay for them. They have purposely divided a nation on the hopes of winning an election. They have demanded senseless investigations at the cost of the taxpayers, which prove nothing, more than they have nothing better to do. They have called our president a liar even after being presented with proof of the claims from their own party.<br /><br />They have made a point of frightening the elderly and under privileged. I ask you as many times as they have claimed conservatives will destroy Social Security and Welfare, when has that claim come to pass? They have told us how our president has failed, yet not one has given a detailed explanation as to what they would do different. They have told us that we are losing in the war on terror, how is it we have managed not to get attacked on American soil since 9/11. We all know it is not because of anything they did.<br /><br />Yes, I am sure all those investigations into the president scared the terrorists. And I will bet that our threat to pull our troops out of Iraq has them shaking in their boots. I doubt seriously that all the rumors and innuendo leveled at the president had much to do with keeping us safe. So tell me what exactly have they done that they know so much? Have they visited with the troops, asked what they need? No they have chosen to sit here in safety and decide our military is lacking. They have spent more time complaining than anything else, they have a compliant about everything from the president landing on the carrier to broken doorknobs in Iraq.<br /><br />But get out from behind the microphone and really do something? Not them. Do they do anything when the camera isnt rolling? Highly unlikely. Oh they look so good on camera, they go prancing around talking about how much they have accomplished. When the facts are they had eight years unencumbered and still failed to pass a prescription benefit, to lift the under privileged out of debt and depression. How many years have they promised the people that they would fix the problems and still even when they had a popular president failed to do so. How many years have we heard that they would pass the prescription benefit and when it came before them they chose to ignore the cries of the people so as not to add to the presidents popularity.<br /><br />They do not want the problems to be taken care of because when they are they no longer have a cause. They can no longer scare the people if they have nothing left to use. It has never been their plan to make America the great place it once was, if that happens then the people no longer need them. They created a little thing called the Pale grant, it is there to help the under privileged get a college education. It is there for people who make $50,000.00 or less. But do they advertise it no, because when the people are educated and working they no longer need handouts and they no longer need them.<br /><br />Rather than spend their time really trying to help the people, they instead go after the people that would show them for who they really are. They cannot face up to the fact that they themselves dont even know who they are any more. What was once a party with pride, a party that stood for the working people is now the party of the welfare workers and Union presidents. They no longer care about the working people unless it is to dip into their pocket to pay for yet another handout. The I feel your pain campaign is out dated, because it is virtually impossible for some one who makes as much money as they do to feel the pain of a working mother who is working two jobs to keep a roof over their heads a food on the table.<br /><br />Yet they continue to tell the people over and over again that they are the only people who feel their plight. I have often said that I would love for those who decide the minimum wage to have to live off of it for a few months. Instead of help the businesses to get the help they need to keep people employed and give them a decent wage and insurance they bite the very hand that feeds them. They are made out to be the enemy, the rich taskmaster who could care less about the people. When if the truth were known, they couldnt do any of those things because they are taxed to death, Disability insurance is sky rocketing Health insurance of any use is so high most cant even afford to insure themselves. It makes good business sense to offer good wages and benefits, most companies would love to be able to do so simply because it generates a better quality worker. They simply cannot afford it.<br /><br />We live in a country were if you work hard all your life put some money a way or become a success you are punished. Is it any wonder more people do not try to better themselves? The fact is you can have your food paid for, your utilities paid for, and you can take your kids to the doctor and never have to pay a red cent. And hey, if you chose to work only eighteen months of the year the government will reward you with at least a $4000.00 check called earned income credit. All you have to do is sell your soul to the Democratic Party and sit at home. But dont you dare try to better yourself, oh no you must not do that because when you do they are going to take your money and give it someone who has just sold their soul.<br /><br />This is the party that goes around and calls everyone else liars when they are the biggest ones of all. They have lied to the very people they have sworn to help, they have told them repeatedly that you cannot do it on your own. You must have us to fight for you, you must have us to insure that you get that job. You must have us to insure you get into college. Youre not smart enough to know who to vote for so we are going to decide whom you voted for. They have told the working people that they were going to insure their jobs and shipped them to any country that would have them. They have and still do welcome the Mexican immigrants in to this country with open arms. The Unions scream about the illegal aliens taking our jobs but have yet to try to stop it. Everyone knows that the unions are the most powerful group of people in the United States and if they really wanted it to stop all they have to do is apply pressure, yet they have not done so, the question you need to ask is why?<br /><br />These people have decided on there own what information you can handle and if it does not help their agenda they just act as though that information does not exist. Take for instance the David Kay report the only information they are giving from this whole report is that they found no nuclear weapons, they have conveniently left out the fact that they found other things such as labs and chemicals. But we dont need to know that stuff, they think we are to stupid to know what they are talking about so they arent even going to bring it up. They scream that most of America is not insured but conveniently forget that most working Americans that have insurance cannot afford to go see a doctor. That the insurance companies make it almost impossible to meet the high deductibles and do not cover half of the tests or treatments. However, if you are uninsured there are several clinics available to you who will accept you based on income, there are programs for insuring children that guarantee their children will get treatment. But those who have the insurance cannot go to the clinics their children are not guaranteed treatment, unless you meet the deductibles first. Do we make the insurance companies work fairly with the people? No we wouldnt want to do that.<br /><br />I dont know about you but I am tired of being lied to, I am tired of the assumption I do not know what is best for my family and me. I am tired half truths and innuendo, and the people who keep them going. I am tired of seeing good people treated as though they are evil and the bad ones treated as though they were some types of saints. Do not sit there and tell me that my president was responsible for 9/11 when you know for a fact it is not true. Stop going around and investigating anyone and everyone who dare speak the truth about the Democratic Party. They said during the last election they just were not getting their message out. Well the message is loud and clears this time, dont do anything that will help the American people, dont assume that your vote counts because we can get it thrown out. Do not under any circumstances say any thing bad about the democratic party because if you do we will take you down. I dont know about you, that does not sound like freedom to me.
