Finding the way out of the dark

Excerpt:
It’s always better to light a candle than to curse the darkness, as Eleanor Roosevelt famously pointed out. But cursing the darkness instead of shining the light seems to be what we’re all doing these days.
Even shining a penlight into the inky darkness of political life in Washington, DC would show that we’ve been forced into the role of audience to the well-orchestrated Act that life in public office has gained over citizenry.
It starts by recognizing that the public office of the day is an entire, well-scripted, ongoing Act; an Act that keeps 90 percent of an unsuspecting and unwitting public at large in the dark without a match.
Don’t buy for even a nano second that Democrats hate Republicans and Republicans hate Democrats.
That’s the Act they use to keep you enthralled; the political game that is being played out to keep the masses from ever realizing that they are being played as pawns in an end game that is ruling civil society in every human aspect imaginable.
With no class themselves and driven by power lust, greed and deceit, the politicians have placed the people they were elected to serve, in a class that unwittingly pays the freight for all their disastrous, self-serving policies.
Politicians of the day in the U.S., and in other Western countries like Britain, have captured their constituents, duct-taped their mouths shut and are holding them hostage.
Let’s take a brief look at some of their scripted theatre in action:
Barack Obama loathes Speaker John Boehner and Boehner hates Obama right back. Right?
Wrong!
Political figures spit-speckle spar in public in faux battles carried by the mainstream media as real. In private, they work closely together to feather their own nests, to make political life as work-free, convenient—and as rich—as possible.
As Tea Party leader and Canada Free Press (CFP) columnist Paula Helton has written in these pages, while younger, more deserving Americans have had to move from full-time jobs to part-time ones, dozens of U.S. senators are living the easy life in their 60s, and 70s.
Why aren’t the Republicans putting up any kind of fight against an ObamaCare that is knocking millions off their health care insurance?
The answer to that question is downright baffling in its simplicity. Politicians from both sides of the political aisle, and many of their staffers, are exempt from Obama’s signature health care policy. They, therefore, have zero political will to fight off something that doesn’t affect them or their families directly.
“No skin off my nose” is what they’re telling each other when they congregate at Happy Hour.
We should stop thinking of politicians as right or left, Democrat or Republican. Modern-day politicians are, by and large, con men and con women, who have found the fast route to easy living on the backs of others.
Politicians belong to a special club that imbues them with a special club mentality. In layman’s language it works out to “You cover my back; I’ll cover yours”.
Have you ever pondered why no Republican has ever stepped forward to try to block Obama’s Fundamental Transformation of America? If one could be easily cowed by ominous threats to their family’s safety, what about a group coming forward to do what needs to be done above all else?
Let’s not kid ourselves. It’s not threats to family that’s keeping them silent, it’s threats to the comfy status of their easy lives.
No matter how ‘transformed’ America becomes politicians on the imaginary ‘other side’ will still get their pay checks, still have the many benefits automatically awarded to politicians of the day.
Why did Obama blame the Republicans for the recent government shutdown? Because the mainstream media would report it as the unquestioned truth.
This big lie is a uniquely transparent one because it is easy to see that Obama can change anything he wants with the stroke of a pen and has been doing so for five long years. It’s called signing executive orders.
All of the above and more is going on over the heads of most people every day.
Most politicians of the day have found their comfort zone and are there for the long run. They’re on the inside where the torment of taxpayers easily bounces off them. It is their constituents who are on the outside. And any constituent who pushes the envelope can be readily smeared as a radical dissident. How they must chuckle among each other when they receive urgent telephone calls and petitions at their office.
If you catch them on Fox News and CNN interviews, they are going for each other’s throats, at least verbally. But these interviews, too, are part of the Act and a major waste of everyone else’s time.
The first Golden Rule for citizen safety: Elected politicians of the day don’t hate each other; they work together.
Golden Rule No. 2: Get out of the audience. Make them play to an empty theatre.
The only ones they hate are those who try to come crashing through their tightly-shut doors and those who dare to tell the truth. Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Christians, small-c Conservatives, Tea Party members, lovers of the Constitution and memories of President Ronald Reagan loom large on their Enemy Hit List.
The few willing to give it the proverbial college try they leave for the media to libel and smear into silence.
Think of the ongoing Act of Washington politicians as the Jerry Springer Show of reality T.V.
