Is government capable?
Earlier in the week we looked at how our ‘awareness writing’ has been fairing with our audience and for those who pop on by to have a quick read. What we’ve noticed is that there is an overwhelming propensity for most – or at least statistically – to go straight after those writings that address “Special Interest Groups.”
As for us, it is no wonder insofar as when a nation’s sovereignty, welfare, and cohesion begins to erode – moreover, when uninformed and greedy people look to score mammoth amounts of money and still worse – aim to influence and change public policy by whatever means, we feel that there is a real virus within that sector of this nation vis-a-vie special interest groups.
We do not want to be offensive or rude – but these kinds of groups are very difficult to find elsewhere in the world; primarily because in most other areas of the world one does not have a voice in the public policy of their nations – in other words freedom of speech.
Now then as for us at The Thinker we believe that every person in America (legally that is) has an inalienable right to be heard. However, and we’re certainly not the first, but there must be rules and regulations that govern what it is that special interests can do in America. Why one may ask? Because if we don’t then our country literally is victim to being bombarded by every single want or desire by those who come here to live.
Please understand this notion: America is being fragmented and factionalized and therefore splintered into an easy target for anyone. Some of us here were quite young during the Cold War – however, that doesn’t hide the lifelong understanding that when we were told to get under our desks at school in a certain way – with our backs facing the windows and never, ever look directly into the blast, well try doing that today. Teachers, administrators, entire school districts would be sued!
America was America then and not a sell out to the first buck or fad (new thing) that comes along. America had an identity during that period of time and the world loved it. However, with the bombing of special interest groups – and the action promised to them for quid pro quo is about as unconscionable as it gets. Who on the planet earth can justify The National Council of La Raza dictating policy to America’s elected officials in Washington D.C.? (Well, they are!)
Now let’s have a real look at that portion of special interest groups: We have decided to list only of a few more prominent ones today – but alas, we will leave copious amounts of links so you can see for yourselves.
National Council of La Raza (NCLR), Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF), Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), National Network for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (NNIRR), La Tierra Es De Todos (The Earth Is For All) (LT), and then again, for those who want ideological insane special interests, La Voz de Aztlán (The Voice of Aztlán) (VA).
Now just a simple perusal of one half of a page at Discover the Networks – actually we were looking for CAIR – and this is what we’ve found:
American Muslim Alliance; the American Muslim Council; the American Muslim Union; the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee; the Council on American-Islamic Relations; the Islamic Circle of North America; the Islamic Society of North America; the Muslim American Society; the Muslim Public Affairs Council; and the Muslim Students Association of the United States and Canada.
At the root of these organizations’ positions is their belief that the U.S. has literally brought terrorism upon itself; that terrorism would stop if the U.S. would improve its behavior; and that the perpetrators of Islamist terrorism are in fact rational individuals trying to air legitimate grievances.
Our point? What is our point…these organizations have been around for longer than most of your reading this article – planning, preparing, doing what is necessary to get what they want – it’s very obvious whose pockets they are in – ergo, our point is what have you done today?
