Too busy to care.
It wasn’t curiosity that killed the cat, it was apathy. The Roman
Empire did not fall in a day. Years of indifference took a toll. If you do not pay
attention, those who fill in the void will prevail. Too preoccupied to pay
attention to your civic responsibility? Too busy to properly inform yourself of
the issues that matter? Unconcerned with the evil that is overwhelming our
culture? Actions, or in this case, the lack thereof, cedes our nation to those
who strive to fundamentally transform America, a transformation that will ultimately
lead to the demise of this Constitutional Republic. This nation is on a path
that will make it unrecognizable less than 250 years after its’ founding. This
is happening right in front of our noses, yet too few pay attention.
Unfortunately, when they finally realize the clear and present danger presented
by the left, it may be too late and America will be lost, perhaps forever. Nice
work!
Democrats scream bloody murder, no pun intended, when the
Supreme Court strikes down Roe V Wade and sends abortion back to the individual
states. Democrat Attorney General Josh Kaul sues the legislature over the “obsolete”
1849 Statute that abolishes abortion when it becomes the law of the land in Wisconsin.
Two referenda on the ballot on August 13th sought to return shared
authority for the distribution of emergency federal funding to both the legislature
and governor. The legislature ceded the sole authority to the Governor in the
1930’s, when it was, due to transportation issues, difficult to get the
legislature back to the Capitol in a timely manner to address emergencies. As you
may know, transportation today is much more efficient and the legislature can
convene in a manner of hours, if necessary, rendering that argument obsolete. Unlike
the 1849 abortion law, democrats were fine with an obsolete law that rested the
sole authority to manage Billions of federal dollars to the Governor, or at
least until a Republican Governor takes office.
I must say that the Democrats and their allies did an
excellent job “messaging” flat out lies in ads leading up to the election. They
accused “extreme MAGA Republicans” for attempting to wrest power from the
people. They argued that it would create an unnecessary burden and delay for
those awaiting relief. Really? For those of you who did not see fit to properly
inform yourself and were fooled into voting “NO,” you actually voted against
your own self-interest. Nice work! These referenda would have given joint authority
to the people’s representatives and the Governor to decide where and to who
these monies would be allocated, which is exactly how state government is
supposed to work. By rejecting these referenda, the citizens have ceded that authority
to one person and crowned that person a King. You have, in fact, enabled
tyranny and denied authority to the very people you elected to represent your
interests at the state level.
Give them what they want, they will get what they deserve. As
Rush Limbaugh postulated about the “Low information voter (LIV) theory that too
many in the voting population cast their ballots without the requisite information
necessary to make an informed decision.” As former President Barack Obama once said,
“Elections have consequences.” It would seem that both are correct.
“The cornerstone of democracy rests on the foundation of
an educated electorate.” Thomas Jefferson
