Originally titled Chocolate Saturdae – think of this tune as Chocolate Sunday Eve…
Ha ha ha. This is an audio flirt with dissonance similar to shadows at the edge of light. Without dissonance there can be no perfect harmony…
But what does the Libertree have to do with it?
Time for another political rant…
The primary purpose of ALL government is to define, protect and preserve the civil rights of its’ citizens.
Our federal government is intentionally completely failing at this basic function. Current office holders and career bureaucrats are trying to redefine the fundamental rights of citizens to the advantage of the politicians and special interests.
We are in a social war between those who value traditional American liberties and self-responsibility, and those who prefer the security of omnipotent government and submission to oppression and control.
The consent of the governed is devolving into the resentment of the ruled.
The American Civil War is described as the War of the Blue and the Gray.
Our current social war could be described as the war of the Blue and the Red.
The Red White and Blue of our American flag should represent
Honor, Purity and Truth – the blood, sweat and tears of our American heritage.
Our blue truth is being slowly tinted to green in the name of prosperity and profit.
Our white purity is being smeared with a rainbow of shades to praise diversity, pride and equity.
If our red honor fades to pink as the socialist bureaucrats complete their redefinition of our civil rights, we may lose the American Experiment forever.
Have we become our father? How did this tyrannical karma fester in our society unrecognized for two centuries, to only now erupt into the viral wokeness which is devouring our core principles?
We assumed the foundation of our republic was strong enough to support any and all we could pile onto it. Our democratic acropolis is cracking as we watch helplessly from within. The integrity of the self-evident truths we hold so dearly is being tested. Will our societal crucible produce platinum for future generations, or only slag for China and Europe to trample? How do we reinforce the footing of our republic to withstand this storm, and prepare for future unimagined peril?
What is under test is not the truths or their self-evidence, but the very concept of Truth itself. What is truth?
Washington, Adams, Franklin, Jefferson and Madison have passed on their legacy. Can Trump, DeSantis, Carlson, DeSouza and Owens rekindle the torch of Liberty?
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing. So we must all do whatever we can to deter or prevent that triumph. “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” Our tree is wilting badly, and wants of refreshment.
