Maxine Walters Insanity Vs. Tea Party Sanity and The Freedom Pyramid

Maxine Walters is a Democratic Congresswoman from California. I believe she has been in Congress for a very long time. Thus, one would have hoped that she would understand our democracy and the right of citizens to freely hold any opinion they want, its called freedom of speech, without being hassled by government officials who have a different opinion of reality.

Recently, Ms. Walters publicly and ridiculously challenged the Tea Party and its followers to "get it on," as if she wanted to step into the alley for a knife fight. A little while ago Ms. Walters went on an infamous rant and wished that all Tea Party members would "go straight to hell." Very mature.

Apparently, Americans with a different opinion than Ms. Walters is reason enough for eternal damnation in her eyes. Forget about the Bill Of Rights, forget about freedom of speech, forget about thinking on your own, you are going to meet Satan if Ms. Walters gets her way.

This is a perfect example of the Freedom Pyramid problem we have in this country. If we were true to our roots as a democracy, we would be operating in the following democracy paradigm (double click on the chart for a larger view):

This is how our Founding Fathers viewed our democracy. Government, and the political class that operates it, were subservient to individual citizens. We were at the top of the Freedom Pyramid and were supported by the political class, not dictated to by the political class. This was supposed to be how we remained a free people in a democracy.

Unfortunately, Ms. Walters and the rest of our politicians have perverted this concept of the Freedom Pyramid to the point where the political class is at the top of the pyramid and dictates downward the terms of our personal lives to us, robbing us of our freedoms and liberty in the process (the Constitution and Bill Of Rights have disappeared in this perversion of our democracy):

Obviously, Ms. Walters falls into this perverted view of our democracy, dictating how anyone who disagrees with her should go to hell. If we were operating in the original Freedom Pyramid environment, we would be the ones telling our politicians to go straight to hell since they would be serving us.

Which brings us back to the Tea Party. The following list contains the official principles of the Tea Party. After reading them, please ask whether those who honestly believe in these principles should go "straight to hell:"

1] That all powers not expressly delegated to the Federal government are the sole domain of the states, as set forth by the Founding Fathers in Article 10 of the U. S. Constitution.

2] In fiscal responsibility and the prudent use of public funds.

3] In limited government as envisioned by the Founding Fathers and for the reasons that they stated.

4] In the rule of law and its uniform application at all levels of government and society.

5] In the national sovereignty of the United States, its proper defense and security, to include her borders.

6] In the personal rights and responsibilities of every U.S. citizen, as expressed by the Founding Fathers.

7] In the free market as the basis of all business conducted within our borders.

Individual freedom, secure borders, limited government, personal responsibility, fiscal integrity. Are any of these principles reasons to go "straight to hell?" Darn, we are talking about basic freedoms to run our lives, our businesses, and our families the way we want. It is the political class that should go straight to hell for their antithesis of these principles:

• Rather than prudent use of public funds, the political class has run up a total national debt of almost $16 TRILLION without resolving any major issue facing most Americans (lost war on drugs, failing public schools, escalating health care costs, etc.)
• Rather than fiscal responsibility, our political class allows the government it operates to lose well over $200 billion a year via criminal fraud and waste in Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other Federal programs and billions more in other wasteful endeavors.
• Our Federal government is anything but limited, taking over control of our retirement funding via Social Security, our retirement medical care via Medicare, our pre-retirement medical care via Obama Care, our student loan programs, etc.
• Our political class does not often uniformly apply rule of law, often using the laws of this land for their own political gains and leverage, with Obama's latest declaration he will not enforce existing immigration laws because he is upset with a recent Supreme Court decision being the most recent abuse of this principle.
• With well over 10 million illegal aliens in this country, it is pretty obvious the political class has not secured our borders, resulting in drug smuggling, people smuggling, and cartel violence and money corrupting our country.

We could go on and on but it is politicians like Congresswoman Walters who have perverted the original concepts of this country, not the Tea Party. The above simple concepts of the Tea Party are dedicated only to freedom. They do not want to restrict women's rights. They do not make a judgement on pro choice vs. pro life. They do not make a judgement of straight vs. gay. They do not make judgements on religious preference or non-preference. They do not divide America via rich vs. poor, white vs. non-white racial lines, blue states vs. red states like our political class does.

No one should be told to go straight to hell in this country for simply having an opinion, especially to have this fate wished on them from a so-called national leader. We need to get back to the original Freedom Pyramid concept and restore sanity to our political processes before the whole country goes "straight to hell."


We invite all readers of this blog to visit our new website, "The United States Of Purple," at:

http://www.unitedstatesofpurple.com/

The United States of Purple is a new grass roots approach to filling the office of President of The United States by focusing on the restoration of freedom in the United States, focusing on problem solving skills and results vs. personal political enrichment, and imposing term limits on all future Federal politicians. No more red states, no more blue states, just one United States Of America under the banner of Purple.

The United States Of Purple's website also provides you the formal opportunity to sign a petition to begin the process of implementing a Constitutional amendment to impose fixed term limits on all Federally elected politicians. Only by turning out the existing political class can we have a chance of addressing and finally resolving the major issues of our times.

Our book, "Love My Country, Loathe My Government - Fifty First Steps To Restoring Our Freedom And Destroying The American Political Class" is now available at http://www.loathemygovernment.com/. It is also available online at Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Please pass our message of freedom onward. Let your friends and family know about our websites and blogs, ask your library to carry the book, and respect freedom for both yourselves and others everyday.
