Writing warm up exercise: Why are America’s Alamo and President Obama comparable? General Sam Houston’s troops at the Battle of San Jacinto were besieged by pleas from losing side: Me no Alamo, Me no Goliad, Me no Alamo. Conservative patriots will someday be besieged, by Obama supporters after Obama’s failures become intolerable: Me no Obama, Me no Obama, Me no Obama.
Tradition started in the year 2009 that conservatives were allowed a public prelude before State of Union Address by American Socialist Democratic Party Presidents. What follows is a future history transcript of the Conservative State of Republic Prelude.
In all of human history, there have only been five great republics: Athens, Rome, America, Texas, and ours in this year of our Lord 3216. Why have the citizens of this once great republic failed to learn that no republic is immune from the lessons of history?
Excluding Texas which joined America before it was attacked in a second war of aggression by Mexico; are we not following the same paths of self destruction that caused the collapse of Athens, Rome, and America? Do not our beyond the borders special economic policies mirror those of Pericles and America’s Internationalist Republicans and Socialist Democrats?
A crisp comparison, between Pericles the architect of Athens collapse, and America’s socialist Presidents who facilitated the collapse of the world’s third great republic; both were essentially honest, but surrounded themselves with associates who placed greed above national security.
Pericles’s agenda was economic statesmanship while America’s socialist Presidents described their policy as American Internationalism. Both propagandized for law and order while governing by calculations for associates commercial profits; both believed that qualifications for governing were obtained through aristocratic privilege.
Both promoted unconstitutional mob rule over their respective constitutional republic. Both believed in societies controlled by “chosen” aristocrats and moral socialists who relied on bureaucratic fascism to redistribute middle class wealth to government created subsidy addicts.
Both acted on these beliefs by catering to constituencies of public subsidy addicts, enforcer bureaucrats, moral socialists, and corporate feudalists; both so despised the middle class that they ignored or at least failed to condemn atrocities committed by incompetent, corrupt, or politically correct bureaucrats against middle class citizens.
Both were denounced by true conservatives. Pericles was denounced by Plato, Aristotle, and Plutarch who all agreed that Pericles’s policies “injured the Athenian character.” True American conservatives denounced counterfeit conservative Republicans like Bush II for breaking campaign promises; and socialist Obama for being a Marxist.
Both failed to understand that there always have been, still are, and probably always will be four political groups: middle class, rich, poor, and bureaucrats. Bureaucrats tend to be amoral and enthusiastically commit crimes against any citizen/s for who ever is in power.
Both ignored Aristotle’s teachings that the best states are those “wherein the middle classes are a more formidable part than either the rich or poor.” Aristotle correctly observed that: an aristocratic state may be beneficial for a time, but aristocrats tend to deteriorate, and become the worst form of government. Aristotle correctly observed two thousand years in advance of America’s internationalist aristocrats: noble character is seldom found among those of noble birth, most who are good for nothing … highly gifted families often degenerate into maniacs.
Concerning rule by public subsidy addicts, Aristotle observed: When a democracy is dominated by lower classes the rich are taxed to provide funds for the poor. The poor receive it and again want the same supply, like pouring water into a sieve; when either the rich get the better of the poor, or the poor of the rich neither of them will establish a free state.
Both republics, Athens and America, were eventually broken by frivolous wars and squandering public funds. Pericles’s political legacy was blamed for “the plague”; while the legacies of America’s Internationalist Republicans and Socialist Democrats became synonymous with economic treason by allowing illegal immigrants followed by terrorists using a porous southern border to destroy America’s domestic manufacturing base.
Have not our national defense policies based on entangling foreign treaties ignored warnings of both Cincinnatus and Washington? Shall self appointed spoiled adults generous with other people’s properties, push our republic into dissoluteness which eventually causes citizens to not defend their republic’s own national heritage from what the Athenians called barbarians and Americans named illegal immigrants?
How long will it be before our citizens continuing to ignore the lessons of history; cause this sacred republic to remain nothing more than a collection of lessons for the sixth or next great republic? The only question that remains is will our citizens passively watch their beloved republic evolve into tyranny and anarchy; or will we like the duty to honor Americans defend our vanishing lives, God given liberties, and properties like apex predators?
Those who believe in the virtues of constitutional representative republics can take solace in the knowledge that future patriotic speakers and authors will chastise citizens of the next great republic for ignoring the lessons of history.
It seems that socialist Republicans and fascist Democrats blended into one, and formed a “fairness doctrine alliance” declaring that constitutional protections and traditions of free speech and free press did not apply to conservative principles. Kind of a blessing knowing anything like a fairness doctrine would never be tolerated in America the land of the free. Wait, guess that was before land of the free meant: free to pillage lives, values, inalienable rights, and properties of America’s conservative middle class.
Closing with a little good news, rather not go into detail; America’s reserves are out there. Those serving on America’s front lines on American soil, as well as those behind American lines on American soil need only survive until America’s re-awakening.
