Choose affiliation wisely

The apparent choices are Republican, Democrat or American. The Republican Party has devolved into a curious collection of Quislings, cowards and con artists, yet remains home to the waning number of individuals who practice fealty to the constitutional republic.

The Democratic Party has metastasized into a lock-step, toxic troupe of progressives, fascists and pan-Leninists perversely proclaiming “patriotism.” Their rhetorical standard bearer’s incessant pledge to constitute the marginalized third faction: Americans.

The American grudgingly populates the dominate parties, out of habit or desperate hope that one might keep their Potemkin promises made during every political campaign. The American’s disgust and frustration with the extra- or unconstitutional activities of the dominate parties is second only to the disdain and contempt those venal political hacks feel toward Americans.

The American wants what they have earned and the rights they naturally possess. They want legal federal governance constrained to its “limited and defined” role, leaving the rest to state and local authorities over which they exert more direct control.

So choose your affiliation wisely, lest the chains presently lying lightly upon your shoulders continue to grow and crush those of your progeny.
