We had a Christmas party last night. Hey I am a Lutheran, and we relish a good party and i really like christmas. . . sue me.
Well it didn't take long for my neighbor, after a few coctails, to share his pearls of political wisdom. You know the mantra, "the President is committed to protecting the flock", the "evil liberals are taking away his tools to do that", he "has to be able to find the bad seeds among our midst".
With that I launched. . . "Bad seeds? You mean the Quakers right? Hey I must be a fellow traveler then, as my sister is a Quaker. You obviously support the concept that she is an enemy of the state. Hey guess what, she is standing right behind you right now, good thing she is a pacifist, but too bad for you I'm not gracious as she. Come to think of it I propably am under investigation as well because I support the ACLU! You know those folks that support those hard-won liberties that I, my father, and my father's father took to the field of battle to defend. Oh and about that "protect us" stuff, just what am I being protected from? Enemies who want to destroy my system of government? Dick and George stomping all over the legislative arm of the government and attempting to appoint grapefruit to the Supreme Court, would that be the kind of enemy your talking about? Perhaps its an enemy of our freedoms, you know those things like that pesky 4th ammendment, that is denied an American citizen each and every time the President issues an executive orer to initiate an illegal search without due process of law. Oh I think I have a grasp of who is the real set of enemies I need to be concerned about. They are the likes of you, a guy who would defend a userper of power through the currency of fear and party politics. Coward! It's time for you to leave. You are not fit to be called an American, you are a traitorous blight on all things free, honest, good about my country."
Appalled he rsponed. "You're not actually are throwing me out of your house?"
"Damn right. And until such a time as your President and his legal minions squander the rest of the bill of rights, I believe I still own this property and can make the decisions regarding who I shelter, who I break bread with, and who I choose to associate with socially. Good night and may God and the people I stand with have mercy on you poor misbeguided soul."
So that's the gist of the story. First, if they want to participate in support of the erosion of your rights, throw them fom your house. decide not to support their business. boycott their television and radio stations!! Then after enough of us have done that, it's time to throw the architects of this grand scheme out of the People's House, 1600 Penn Avenue!!!!!
