The False Politicians

Its Time to Separate the Preferential from the Principled

Godfather89

I am writing this article in response to an article that I saw posted by a friend on Facebook ( http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2011/06/newt-gingrich-turns-against-the-federal-reserve/240770/ ). The points in this article are 3-fold and the conclusions that I am going to provide should be straightforward and somewhat obvious. The first point that I want to mention is that from my perspective, our libertarian revolution of the mind in America seems to definitely be catching on. The second point that I want to mention is that from my point of view the establishment by their actions in recent memory are not invincible but rather they are mortal and we are beginning to see the limits of their power. The third and final point is that based on their actions in recent memory these puppets and their cohorts think "we the people" are stupid. The information provided in this article will serve to inspire but also serve as a message for heightened vigilance as well.

Our ideas have laid dormant or at least behind-the-scenes since the Progressive Era itself. However recent events have shown that the Idea of Libertarianism instead of Corporatist Statism/Imperialism are gaining traction in the American Mindset! The fact that these establishment politicians are beginning to parrot the words of principled Libertarian politicians and thinkers is a sign of the times. There is more talk then ever before about the failed war on drugs on one hand and the corruption of Washington on the other, but in particular this talk goes as deep as the Bankers themselves who own and control America's Money Supply via The Federal Reserve. This is the good news that people are rediscovering [I being one of them] what it means to be truly Free and not only that, but what the possibilities of true Freedom have to offer us if we can manifest it in this world.

However the fact that our ideas are catching on also means that those who based their careers [whether knowingly or not] on institutions and actions that are against our Libertarian Mindset are faced now with a dilemma. There options are really twofold, either they will: (1) Talk the Talk, by which I mean act as if they are in agreement with us, but are still at heart part of the very institutions and actions that run contrary to our Libertarian Mindset, or they will (2) lose their careers! Now I know what you must be thinking, "Why can't they change their ways?" My reasons for being skeptical that they willingly want rather then feel compelled enough that they need to change their ways stems from two beliefs.

The first is that, years of corruption and the world of vices in politics hardened minds and hearts, seeing corruption, being part of corruption solidifies in older minds the assumption that, "this is just the way things are!" Even worse, they may actually like the way things are. Scientifically speaking we are creatures of habit, repetitious familiarity is what we want this is self-evident and any attempt to upset the way things are done is frowned upon.

The second reason for my skepticism is that, these establishment politicians came armed with certain assumptions and understandings about the world that they received when they were in school. These assumptions and understandings are largely not libertarian, but are authoritarian in their outlook. Notions on Chaos Theory as applied to Psychology establish my views even more, as these politicians move through time and space, their actions are dictated on their thoughts and feelings, and their decisions have a cumulative effect both on their own cognitions and the cognitions of the institutions they work for. This happens to the point that their cognitions and the cognitions of the institution they work for act as an affirmation for their own worldview so much so that they become invested in defending the institutions that affirm their ill-informed worldview.

The coupling of these two reasons leads me to my suspicions of trusting establishment politicians to fight against the system. It is my view that it would be very naive to think that the weakest of humans who have given in to corruption countless times over will change or at best admit that this is not a job for them to work in. Rather, in their weakness rooted in cynical corruption by the political world they have long-identified with, they will keep their jobs by merely Talking the Talk, but certainly not walk the walk! If they did Walk the Walk it would threaten their notions of the way things are and how to go about fixing it.

Since I feel that they are "Talkers", rather then "Talkers and Walkers" it is my belief that they feel compelled to pay lip-service and nothing more to the ideas which we have been hard at work trying to spread like wildfire. These establishment politicians do this to appease the growing number of informed populace while simultaneously subtly attempt to guide that stream of newcomers into their pocket and fold. They think that the people who vote for them are stupid, they think that if all they do is speak with Libertarian words then that will be enough, but it is up to us to expose them for the wolves in sheep's clothing that they are.

Let their voting record speak for them, let the money trail that leads to their campaigns point to them as well, do not take a politicians words for nothing they speak that they may keep their bread and butter, not because they are principled and are willing to endure for their principles. They change with the wind, 5 years ago they mocked us, now they pay lip service to us and speak like us, but still their actions speak contrary to their empty words, if we wait another 5 more years before their actions match the words coming out of their mouths, there will no longer be an America that we recognize!

Therefore, I am left to conclude that that a severe level of vigilant skepticism must be employed against these politicians who 3 to 5+ years ago spoke badly of us. If I am telling you to be skeptical of them, then I am telling you to be skeptical enough not to vote for them. If I am telling you not to vote for the preferential establishment politician, then I am telling you to vote for the principled anti-establishment politician! Who might that be then? How about Ron Paul and all who he gives his endorsements too!

This article was written in response to an article of how Newt Gingrich was speaking out against The Federal Reserve. My skepticism against Mr. Gingrich is high and rightfully so, back in 2009 I went to the NYC Tea Party, one of many across the country. Newt Gingrich was a primary speaker in the NYC Tea Party! The previous Tea Party was largely a Ron Paul revolution, the 2009 one however seemed to be [by the 2nd NYC Tea Party] just angry and disaffected McCain Supporters. By the time of my involvement in Nassau County Politics [the first county just outside the 5 Boroughs outside of NYC] while working with my own political team, I was told that the Tea Party in New York had already been hijack and rapidly became an outlet for Republican-side of the establishment, and any talk of the Libertarian/Ron Paul Mindset was discouraged if not mocked at altogether.

My concerns are not unfounded, they are not ill-conceived, they are real and they are relevant to our continued Libertarian Revolution of the American Mindset. If we allow Gingrich and any of the other establishment "Talkers" to gain foothold on any of our Libertarian talking points it will rapidly devolve into a non-issue and start right back at a "conspiracy theorist wet-dream." This cannot be allowed to happen, however, I believe that the best defense is a good offense, we need to expose them now and discredit them now, to force them into an early retirement from their political career. We then need to make said Libertarian Talking Point(s) that these establishment goons would try to parrot more real then ever before! Most of all Remember, they showed weakness when they began to Parrot our longstanding talking points and principles, this shows that they still need us to be appeased because their work is not yet done and our obedient "involvement" is still required!
