AMERICANS EVERYWHERE



November 2, 2014

Dear “Grand Olde Party”,

I recently received a letter asking if I have abandoned the Republican Party.

 No, I have not abandoned it, it has abandoned me!

 In response, I offer this open letter to ALL party members, especially those currently in office:

 https://www.facebook.com/groups/UPROAR.POSTS/

When I joined the GOP, I joined what I thought was the party for conservatives, the party that insists on applying the Constitution conservatively, sticking with the original intent and text.
Ever since I joined, the GOP has moved farther and farther toward being just another branch of the Democratic party. The GOP leadership in both houses of congress continually ignore the conservative voices SCREAMING for them to PLEASE return to conservative principles and values and to PLEASE STOP VOTING IN SUPPORT OF THE DEMOCRATIC LIBERAL/PROGRESSIVE AGENDA!

The GOP also NEEDS to STOP actively BLOCKING the REAL CONSERVATIVES that are trying to replace the more liberal incumbents.
 
It is time for the current Republican politicians to STOP worrying about just short term “feel good” issues and getting reelected and to worrying about the LONG TERM SURVIVAL of our Republic! 

How long can America continue to allow the Executive and Judicial branches of our government to ignore, circumvent and/or destroy the authority of our founding documents that where put in place to protect us from just this kind of corruption and tyranny?

What issues should the GOP pursue to SAVE our country? How about supporting the American Constitution? How about supporting the spirit as well as the content of your oaths of office?

To provide a little more guidance:

EVERY GOP candidate needs to state clearly and emphatically:

1.) That they believe that life starts at conception and any abortion (chemical or surgical) is therefore murder. It needs to be further emphasized that sexual intercourse is not a form of recreation but should be an intimate act between a husband and a wife.

2. ) That homosexuality is NOT NORMAL. Just because an individual is sexually attracted to another member of the same sex does not mean that it is morally right for him or her to act on that attraction by engaging in disgusting and medically ill-advised activity. While I do not think that it should be illegal for them to do so, it should be frowned upon by society and strongly discouraged, NOT NORMALIZED.

3.) That our immigration system is broken and ALL immigration needs to be FROZEN until it can be fixed.
- a. ALL CURRENT IMMIGRATION LAWS NEED TO BE REVIEWED to ensure that they represent the best interests of the American people, NOT the best interests of American BUSINESSES. If American businesses need more high tech workers, they need to figure out how to get them from among Americans. They need to hire TRAINABLE candidates and TEACH THEM what they need them to know just as they used to do with APPRENTICESHIPS in the trades.
- b. Legal immigration should be very limited and allowed only for individuals who will:
i. Bring a benefit to our society.
ii. Can prove that they already have secured long-term employment that will provide them with sufficient income to support themselves.
iii. They should not be allowed to take the oath of citizenship until they have already proven that they are willing to and have already started to assimilate into our AMERICAN society.
iv. The only relatives that should be allowed to immigrate are the spouse and children of the initial applicant. If their parents, siblings, cousins or uncles want to come here, they need to apply on their own merit.
c. Illegal immigration MUST be STOPPED COMPLETELY!
i. The border MUST be secured even if through the use of deadly force. Literally THOUSANDS of illegal immigrants DIE each year sneaking into our country. If we started shooting anyone who tries to cross our border (after giving an appropriate advance notice) we would only have to shoot a few before the others got the idea that we are serious and stopped coming. We need to frame this solution as being a way to SAVE LIVES.
ii. ANYONE who enters or has entered our country illegally MUST be DEPORTED as soon as possible. NO OTHER OPTION is nor should be acceptable. There is one TRUTH that everybody keeps tiptoeing around, when these individuals crossed our border, they knew that they could be deported at any time, so let’s fulfill their expectations.
iii. Anyone who feels they are being persecuted and wishes to seek asylum needs to go to the nearest United States Embassy that is still OUTSIDE our borders and submit an application stating the facts of their case.

4.) That how someone pays for healthcare should be an individual responsibility. What needs to be addressed is WHY DOES IT COST SO MUCH IN THE FIRST PLACE?
- a. Doctors, clinics and hospitals have to cover their operating expenses and still make a REASONABLE profit. Let’s make sure that their profit margins ARE REASONABLE.
- b. One of the BIGGEST expenses for the medical industry is MALPRACTICE insurance. We need to place limits on medically related lawsuit awards. This is the ONLY WAY that malpractice insurance premiums will come down. There should also be limits on how much the lawyers can charge to handle these cases.
- c. Another BIG expense is the high cost of getting an education as a doctor. We need to look at WHY colleges and universities charge so much for medical school tuition. Some of it is related to high malpractice insurance premiums as they have also been sued in such cases, but there is no reason that an anatomy class should cost so much more than an algebra class or any other class. They all involve a set number of classroom hours, lab hours and instructor hours. There should be a way to control these costs.

5.) We no longer need the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as anything other than an advisory council. There are sufficient laws in place to protect the environment and America already has a judicial branch that can handle prosecuting violation of the law. The investigative and enforcement departments need to be eliminated.

6.) That our income tax system is broken and the Internal Revenue Service is OUT OF CONTROL!
- a. The entire tax code needs to be repealed and replaced with a FLAT RATE income tax. The tax can apply to both individual income and business profits but should NOT APPLY to capital gains, dividends, inheritances or interest income on personal savings accounts.
- b. The IRS needs to be reduced to the appropriate number of processors to handle the new tax filing paperwork. The IRS does not need investigative or enforcement departments either. If tax fraud is suspected, they should hand the case over to the Attorney General’s office for investigation and prosecution.

7.) That legislation needs to be passed stating that our Constitution can only secure the rights of OUR CITIZENS. If the citizens of other countries want the same rights, they need to stay home and change their own governments so they can have them, NOT run away to America.

8.) That ALL FOREIGN AID needs to be FROZEN until the Federal Budget is BALANCED and then each country’s foreign aid needs to be reauthorized by congress. Each country should be allowed only ONE aid package and the amounts and justifications for those packages must be posted online for review 30 days prior to being voted on. If a country is receiving aid from us and does not spend it on the priorities they stated in their request for aid, then the aid should be stopped and no new aid given until a new government is instituted that will not lie to us about what they want to spend OUR money on.

9.) That our MILITARY needs to be the BEST trained, BEST equipped force on earth. When they are needed, they should be told the objective of the operation and then left alone to achieve it through the most effective means at their disposal. There is only one way to win a battle and that is to TOTALLY DEFEAT your enemy. Anything short of that just leaves the job unfinished and allows for our enemies to rise again and to need to be fought again.

10.)  Whether or not we use torture should neither be confirmed nor denied. Answering this question only provides aid to our enemies. If they fear they may be tortured, maybe they will reconsider engaging us in combat. Instilling fear in our enemies is one of the most effective tools we have to prevent conflicts.

11.)  That the dictates of Islam and the structure of our society as defined by our founding documents (the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution) are incompatible and therefore the practice of Islam is not allowed in our country. In addition, because Islam is a socio-political system of repression and control, it will no longer be recognized as a religion by the United States.

12. ) That the Constitution guarantees that our pre-existing right to keep and bear arms will not be infringed, thus ALL FEDERAL and STATE laws that in any way restrict, regulate, register or limit the keeping, carrying (concealed or open) or using of personal arms (firearms, bows, crossbow, knives, swords, etc.) are NULL and VOID.
13.)  That when any individual is convicted of a felony, they have proved that they cannot be trusted to not abuse their rights. Therefore:
- a. Their rights are forfeited until they have served their sentence AND they have proven to the satisfaction of their state Governor AND their state Senator that they have reformed themselves and are now worthy of being trusted again.
- b. The only rights felons have while in prison are the right to food, shelter, medical care and protection from abuse either by their keepers or by their fellow prisoners.
- c. Federal prisons need to be set in southern states and constructed and as demonstrated by New Mexico’s Sheriff Arpaio.
- d. Hard labor is not abuse. Prison should NOT be a pleasant experience. It is supposed to be a punishment. The more prisoners don’t like it in prison the more likely they are to not do anything that would cause them to have to go back.

14.) The Department of Education is NOT NEEDED and should be immediately closed down.

15.) Stop bull-shitting us with the “NEED TO BE COMPASSIONATE.” Is it compassionate to allow citizens of foreign countries to run away from their problems instead of making them stay there and fix them?
 What about the compassion for those they left behind?
 Is it compassionate to allow homosexuals to believe that they are normal instead of enlightening them to the fact that they have a problem that they need to deal with?
 Is it compassionate to allow a woman to abort an unwanted pregnancy further enabling her immoral use of sex as RECREATION instead of SAVING the NEW LIFE inside her?
 Is it compassionate to NOT BOMB an enemy target because it is hiding behind “innocent” civilians instead of removing the enemy target by killing some “innocent” civilians so that the hundreds of thousand of other civilians can be rescued from oppression?

 What we need to do is to learn how to frame the argument to show how the obvious compassion is actually cruelty.

I do not know how I can be clearer in defining what CONSERVATIVE Americans want from our leadership. But, I can tell you that the clock is running down to the point when Americans are not going to wait for our elected leaders to fix the ship of state and steer it back onto the course set by our fore-fathers. And, when that time comes, Americans WILL FIGHT for our rights and do as the Declaration of Independence states is our RIGHT, OUR DUTY to REMOVE you and install new stewards to tend to the rudder of OUR ship!

Sincerely;
AMERICANS EVERYWHERE
