Folks, before I get into the subject
of this newsletter I want to update you on the election I assisted Joe
Leinweber Jr. with, trying to unseat a 50 year family dynasty sitting in a US Congressional seat. Joe
didn’t win but I truly believe our district and America lost out on a real
patriot and fiery person whose only purpose for running was to do all he could
to expose and begin to repair the inequities in the Unconstitutional path our
government has been following. We all missed a real chance for true “political will” to fix things,
something lacking in today’s government.
Comment: For those who think that our
Constitution is a living document and should be changed with the times are
suggesting we should build our foundation on sand rather than our foundation
built on solid rock. As Joe says, “The 10 Commandments have been around
for a while, what needs changing in them?”
Joe and as I have decided not to
pursue a political office again, it’s all about the amount of money one
can raise and the favors and influence which will have to be repaid. This is
how the system works and until we get the money and influence out of the system,
we will never have true representation. (If we had true representation for the
people, we wouldn’t be facing the problems we are today). The only thing
I really cannot understand, with the Congress’s overall approval rating
in the single digits why do people continue too put the same people back into
office?
Thank you to all the people who have
supported Joe and me over the years, a group of really great people!
The subject of this newsletter: “The
Law”
When our government decides what
should be prosecuted or not by the rule of law, it should be dealt evenly
throughout the legal system. When exceptions are made, we have begun a downward
slide, respecting less and less the rule of law (If they can get away with it
why not me, if I know the right people?).
Cronyism has become the way of life
in Washington but when a handful of people and corporations all but destroy our
economic system and have so much influence nothing is prosecuted , our system
of justice has lost its credibility. Unfortunately in the banking and financial
industries, that is exactly what we are seeing. With the state of our economy
and knowing how we got here, why are the top executives not being prosecuted
for the obvious mishandling of our nation’s wealth? We are not seeing any
legal pursuit to expose the top corporations and executives responsible for
this economic disaster we are living through.
As I have searched for answers for
the lack of prosecutions which I believe is the greatest problem facing our
legal system, I came across an investigation of how the cronyism has gotten to
a point of unbelievable proportions. This will blow your mind!
This may reflect on the current
administration but all these economic problems went down in the Bush
administration and there were no high level prosecutions during that
administration either. So don’t just point at this administration, it is
a system of cronyism pervasive through out the entire political system. The
largest of Washington influences pretty much have a green light to do what ever
they want.
As we sit and watch our sports, TV
shows, and all the other distractions, our nation is experiencing some of the
greatest tragedies ever facing us and there is no out cry, that can be heard
nationally, to stop this flagrant, in our face, lawlessness being perpetrated
on the American people. Folks, as we stay distracted from these major problems,
we will wake up one day and realize our nation has been compromised to the
point of economic collapse. If you think that is not possible, you have already
been duped into believing everything will be just fine, it will just go away
and fix itself. I doubt if many of my readers believe this but there are a
great many of our citizens truly have no idea how precarious our economic
system is.
