A Letter to Governor Christie
Dear Governor Christie,
I am an avid supporter of the Republican Party and a leading member of the local Republican Club in East Greenwich Township located in Glouster County. Our club
has made leaps and bounds this past year in creating a strong web site and in succeeding to get a Republican elected to our local township committee, where he will be
out numbered 4 to 1 until November 2010 where we hope to gain a few more seats back.
I am writing you this letter however, not to ask you for your support in local matters, although that would be greatly appreciated and much needed, but rather to implore
you and your attorney general to investigate the constitutionality of the current legislation that is being rammed through at the federal level as well as the ethics of certain
NJ senators being leading members of race related groups who attempt to segregate the population into groups based on their race and then attempt to lobby for that group
over another segment of the population.
This is a fascistic practice, favoring one race over another and attempting to fleece the American people of their wealth and resources in order to support a political
agenda, rather than treating all members of society as equals as a public official ought to treat their constituents and as the federal government ought to treat the
individual states.
Hypothetically if there were Senators that were members of the KKK, in this day and age, they would be out right ostracized and politically ruined if not jailed, however,
it is ok for a senate member to be a leader of “La Raza” which, as I am sure you know, stands for “The Race”; a group in which holds the western territories of the United States
as unofficial Mexican territory, and lobby endlessly for subverting the traditional aspects of American society by forcing the Spanish language on an English speaking country
and lobby for illegal immigrants to be treated the same if not better than the legal tax paying residents of this great country. La Raza holds Mexico as the mother country
and not the United States thereby subverting the interests of the American people for that of the Mexican people. One can imagine the damage that can be done to our state
and nation not to mention our society if we allow our representatives to hold these views with out political and legal reprisal. If that is not fascistic and treasonous then I must
have missed something in my education.
Both our N.J. Senators and our run away federal government’s arrogance have left we the people of New Jersey and the United States holding the bag for their recklessness
for years to come, but we can at least fight back.
When elected representatives who hold radical far left stances are in charge of legislating in the senate what we get is a whole slue of unconstitutional resolutions.
Resolutions
such as mandating all Americans buy a product against their will and to supplement those who have no claim on American society because they are not tax
paying
citizens as well using public funds for politically controversial issues such as abortion. Taxing certain states to supplement other states (see Ben Nelson and Nebraska)
and including resolutions that make the current legislation un-amendable and unchangeable by future congresses and future representatives thereby binding future
generations to this radical legislators’ political agenda.
The unconstitutionality of what is taking place at the federal level is tantamount to robbery of the American tax payer in order to line the pockets of the far left’s political supporters.
I am simply asking you as your constituent who has voted for you to make a political statement by joining with the other states that are investigating the constitutionality
of the current health care legislation in relation to the violation of the commerce clause which mandates that the federal government has dominion over economic activity
that takes place
across state lines however treats all the states as equals regarding policy. Simply ask yourself how much more will New Jerseyans have to pay for their Medicare
taxes in order
to supplement Nebraska’s sweetheart Medicare deal? Rob Peter to pay Paul
is the popular ideology in the Democratic majorities in order to bribe representatives
to vote for
bad legislation. If the legislation is so good why must senators be
coerced into voting for it? Something stinks to high heaven here and it would be a major
statement if a
traditionally politically left state of New Jersey were to turn the
corner and join the ranks of the brave representatives speaking out against this health care debacle.
Please consider taking careful and diligent action to protect the rights of your constituents.
Sincerely,
Antonio Clemente

Corzine outspends Christi three to one on negative gubernatorial campaign.
Christi stands tall!
By Anotnio Clemente
This upcoming election on Tuesday November 3rd 2009 is arguably the most important election in NJ politics since the mid nineties. With an election that important
and Corzine behind in the initial polls by a margin of almost ten points he has had no choice but to launch a staunchly negative campaign attack on Chris Christi.
Corzine has been able to narrow the gap that Christi enjoyed early on by falsely accusing him of being anti-woman and anti-children.
By Corzine’s adds alone, one might think Christi the next coming of Hitler. Portraying Christi as a man who would cut spending on education and opposes the state
funding of preschools in a negative light rather than stating the truth that throwing money at education, as Corzine has done up till now, in the hopes that it will
magically solve the problems in our public schools, has only increased the quantity of bad schools rather than addressing the quality of our children’s education directly.
When Christi says he want to cut spending he does so because we as a state have no choice but to cut our budget in order to start paying down the debt that Corzine has
contributed to.
When it comes to education it is not more teachers or more schools that are need but rather accountability in education. Teachers unions have resisted accountability
and for good reason, to protect their own from actually having to provide a quality product, which mean actually having to work. Too many teachers go into teaching
not because they are called to the profession by a higher power or because they want to give back to the community but rather they go into it because they know that it is
a failsafe job that guarantees pay no matter the quality of the product they produce. Many site that they did it because of the cushy summer break. Granted every job has
its perks however one should be working not to get those perks but rather to provide a quality product. This is such a basic principal in free market capitalism that every
business in this country understands it. It is not the quantity of product but rather the quality of their product that sells. A few quality products are worth more than a having
a vast quantity of poor products. Any sales representative will tell this fact. Throwing money into education has not and will not solve our educational woes.
When running a negative campaign onslaught however, it pays to portray the man that wants to save the state money and let free market solutions correct the gaps in
education, as man who hates children and women. It is politically advantageous to demonize ones opponent for suggesting something that might actually work in order to
distract from the fact that Corzine has done nothing to improve education or done anything positive for the State of New Jersey.

A Letter to our Senators
Dear Senator,
I am a concerned New Jersey citizen. My entire life I have been inundated with notions of government as the solution to social, economic, and political problems. All of
my elementary, high school, and especially my college education have been heavily geared to shed a positive light on expansion of the state. In elementary school we
honored such figures as Teddy Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt. All of who come from an era in human history where what was billed to be a
brand new ideology of, what amounts to Statism, was actually a rebirth of an old world order that existed prior to Americas founding. Ideologies history has since proven
to be obsolete, with roots in European social and the collegiate elite of the era. Hitler’s “National Socialism”, “Mussolini’s “Fascism”, and Stalin’s “Communism” all come
from the same ideological well, in which the individual has no rights other than to do what the state dictates.
Woodrow Wilson, FDR, and Teddy Roosevelt are all progressives; progressives who believed that the state has a duty to control and dictate citizens’ individual liberties and
rights. Wilson’s “War on Poverty” a war that modern progressives decry, and will always decry, that we are loosing. A war that cannot be won! A seemingly humanitarian effort
as a “War on Poverty”, in all actuality requires that those who are productive citizens be held liable to those who are not. This amounts to a confiscation of the private property
of those who make a living for themselves and give it to those who do not make their own living; a “Rob Peter to pay Paul” scenario. I wonder how Peter feels about this
transaction? I bet he feels like a growing number of Americans who just want oppressive government out of their faces.
FDR had his ever expanding and haloed from progressives as well as the left “Social Security” which was sold to the public as an insurance policy for aged Americans who
can no longer be fully involved citizens by virtue of their physic and natural degeneration that takes place along with aging. Social Security was founded on the idea that
only those who need assistance would receive it. This is the moment in history where the Constitution was overridden with little to no fight from the American people to
allow the involuntary confiscation of private citizens income to provide income for other private citizens. An unconstitutional notion, by all means! Do you believe that it
was Thomas Jefferson’s intentions to have the state take care of its citizens from birth to death; or George Washington’s intentions; or any of our founders?
The left and many so-called “progressives”, complain that capitalism has failed and that we need the state to fix it all. A silver bullet if you will. This in complete and utter
nonsense! I propose that it is not capitalism that has failed but rather the strain that Wilson’s, and FDR’s progressive socialism has put on capitalism that has caused the U.S.
economy to collapse to its current condition. Just look at the numbers. All of our “social insurance” policies are bankrupt and will soon be indebted if not already in debt. Liberal
lending policies caused a housing and foreclosure crisis. Government never solved a social problem. It cannot with out at the same time being tyrannical in nature and violating
constitutional private property and personal liberty rights. Now we have Universal Health Care. It’s the same animal of “socialism” just in a different costume.
Sincerely,
Antonio Clemente

Domestic Political Debate Lost to Political Correctness and Globalization
by Antonio Clemente
Our fore father's must be turning in their graves at the monstrosity that is taking place under the watch of President Barack Hussein Obama whom seems to regard the
U.S. Presidency, the most powerful post in the world, as a five year-old regards a red cape. Flying around the globe from country to country summit to summit touting America
as an oppressor painting the portrait of America as if American’s have something to regret. The ever growing thrust toward political correctness as well as hefty past regrets
gulled a huge portion of Americans into voting for a man out of what equates to subconscious retaliation. A sort of penance for America’s past regrets, in which Obama
seems to be riding the wave of like a true Hawaiian surfer.
Those of us who have not succumbed to the indoctrination of the liberal, pro-nanny-state news organizations and public school systems, know that the responsibility of
modern man is that of modern man and has no relation to the sins of our fathers, nor do we have the right to suffer our children our sins. I might add that any one who
argues such forgets that the country we live in now would not be the country it is today had not our past and our history played out exactly the way it has. We know
America is safer when we are aggressive in our pursuits’ regardless of whom we may or may not offend.
All of the acts committed by our forefathers, both acts of generosity and sacrifice as well as acts of malice, are all a part of America's history, like it or not. Our founders
sought to deliver us a sovereign nation, bound only by the rule of natural law, which they intensely deliberated and toiled over for many hours to form what we call
The Declaration of Independence, The Constitution of the United States of America, and The Bill of Rights. Their hard work has created the foundations of a nation
that was destined to become the greatest nation among all the globe's nations. A nation based upon the individual and upon free market capitalism and freedom to choose
one’s destiny. Despite all this, we do not celebrate our history and morn the sacrifice of our fore fathers, we instead morn our history and neglect if not completely ignore the
sacrifices of our founders and our fathers whom came before us.
Our mothers and fathers have given their blood, sweat, and tears as sacrifice in order to deliver us the freedoms we now carelessly take for granted. The men and women whom
have put their lives on the line in order to protect our sovereignty and our American way of life did so because they believed in the benevolence, freedom, and greatness
of America. They believed in the words of our founders and in the documents our founders penned; documents, inspired not just from the events and minds of the day but,
more importantly from human history and from the greatest minds in human history. We squander our freedoms. We do not do these great men justice.
We allow those in power to remain in power even if we do not approve of their dealings. We allow our freedoms to be slowly digested in the ever growing mandates of social
contract. A song many nations before have sung to a tune of their own inevitable collapse. Individuals should be responsible for their own actions and their own well being.
We allow the indoctrination of our individuals, mainly children, who seem to be taught that they cannot think or act on their own behalf or perhaps are taught that they do not have
to or cannot create opportunity or even voice their own opinions. Political correctness has closed the door on open discussion by Americans. Everyone tip toes around everything
afraid their going to hurt someone’s feelings or afraid to be the subject of a law suit. Traditional and academic debate has broken into a more primitive format no longer civil in
discourse but rather playing to whims of popular opinions.
We simply rejoice because a popular well-spoken man has become president based on a tried and true campaign slogan, “change”. A very popular notion and not the first
time it has been used in an election. I have heard the notion entertained that simply because Obama has won the presidency and he is popular, this somehow makes his
agenda infallible and his actions unquestionable, especially by those concerned about the radical stances his agenda has taken on many issues. To be beholden solely to
popular opinion is to be at the mercy of what ever fancy seems to strike the populous this particular day. Just because someone or something is popular by no means makes
that person or thing infallible or unquestionable nor should we allow them to go on so.
The notion of a “Global Community” has a nice tone to it however it covers the reality of nations and national interests. Not all nations have the same objectives and it is
ludicrous to subjugate American power and might to world consensus. The “World” has envied America since before our independence as a place full of newness and wonder
with abundant open space, clean water, clean air, and natural resources abound.
Today we are still envied, however that envy has grown into contempt by several nations. There are those who do not share America’s interests at all fore they have their
own interest in mind. This is where Obama has a complete and total character flaw. He genuinely believes that people of sustenance have an obligation to take into
consideration those of lesser means. On the surface this sounds nice but look closer and one sees those that have sustenance do so because they have educated them selves,
struggled to overcome adversity, and made no excuses other than citing their own imperfections. Were as those of lesser means usually have not taken the steps to educate
them selves or their children and use adversity as an excuse not to try or succeed.
Rather than treating adversity as an impenetrable force one should view it as an obstacle to be overcome. We all experience adversity but we do not all overcome it.
Just as stated by the founders we have the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Not the right to be happy but rather the right to pursue it. Just as we don’t have
a right to prosperity but rather we have the right to overcome adversity. Equality of opportunity not equality of outcome, this is one of many ideas our founders sought
after and endorsed.
