Ron Paul Is The Only Presidential Candidate Who Gets It
By Chuck Baldwin
December 29, 2011
The recent passage of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)
and the reaction--or better, lack of reaction--by the GOP's
Presidential candidates is a perfect example of how it will not matter
to a Tinker's Dam which Republican candidate wins the nomination,
unless that candidate is Congressman Ron Paul. This is what so many
people within the so-called Religious Right and establishment GOP just
do not understand: they do not understand the fact that America is in
the throes of a burgeoning police state. They have buried their heads
in the sand for so long that they wouldn't know what tyranny looked
like if it came up and bit them on their blessed assurance! They have
totally drunk the propaganda Kool Aid that purports that the biggest
threat to our liberties comes from the Sand People. Our Founding
Fathers were a much wiser lot, of course. They understood perfectly
that the biggest threat to our liberties comes from Washington, D.C.,
not Baghdad, or Tehran, or any other foreign entity.
Listen to Daniel Webster: "There is no nation on earth powerful
enough to accomplish our overthrow. Our destruction, should it come at
all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people
to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and
negligence. I must confess that I do apprehend some danger. I fear
that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants
and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they
may be made the dupes of designing men and become the instruments of
their own undoing."
Yet, except for Ron Paul, not a single Republican Presidential
candidate has issued the slightest warning regarding the draconian
components of the NDAA that literally turns America's homeland into
a war zone and, with the stroke of a pen, effectively eviscerates the
Bill of Rights. Why is that? Because, except for Ron Paul, none of
them get it. Bachman, Gingrich, Perry, Romney, Santorum. None of them!
