The Scream [of the American Citizen]

Our campaign hereby effective immediately adopts "The Scream" by Edward Maunch as our campaign political art symbol.  Recently sold yesterday at Soethby's for 119 million.  Clearly, this represents to our campaign, the attitudes of the voters quite adequately.

For surely, citizens of the United States are wanting to scream about the current state of our federal government and rightly so with approval of our current congress hovering at the lowest approval rating imaginable at around 10% favorable.

Scherer understands why many citizens are now screaming.  Scherer merely wonders what took so long, for so many to do some screaming.  Scherer was screaming about what was happening back in the nineties.  Therefore, Scherer is glad many more are also screaming right now.

Here, our federal govermment via the Obama Adminstration is using a good squad to go after those that oppose Obama policies.  Is this not the first stages of fascism and tryanny?  We have both the Senate and Congress wanting to monitor the internet.  The feds via the elected federal officials have passed both the Patriot Act and the National Defense Authorization Act.  Clearly the feds are ready to put down citizen dissent by any means, lawful or unlawful. 

And the feds are just getting started via the DHS.  The tenacles of the federal government extend clear to the local level in anticipation of citizen revolution.  We as country are in deep trouble-not based on economics but instead on abuse of power in direct contradiction to the United States Constitution by those in the federal, state and local governments.

America is clearly getting closer to the crossroads of revolution.  To which the feds and their network clear to the local level are standing prepared to arrest many that do protest.  Be careful.  The feds are watching and monitoring.  Big brother is in charge.  Big brother is not going away without a fight.  So, stand by fight, as we must.    Our very liberty as a free nation and free people is very much at  stake. 

NOTE: Here are the fourteen warnings signs a country is moving closer into being a fascist state:

Fourteen Defining
Characteristics Of Fascism
By Dr. Lawrence Britt

5-28-3

Dr. Lawrence Britt has examined the fascist regimes of Hitler (Germany), Mussolini (Italy), Franco (Spain), Suharto (Indonesia) and several Latin American regimes. Britt found 14 defining characteristics common to each:
 
1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.
2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.
3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.
4. Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread
domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.
5. Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.
6. Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.
7. Obsession with National Security - Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.
8. Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.
9. Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.
10. Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.
11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked.
12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment - Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.
13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption - Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.
14. Fraudulent Elections - Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

Anyone that would like to post solutions to make America a better nation as a guest blog author; or has solutions to fix some of the problems in America, send me an essay to tscherer4@kc.rr.com. Also known as Thomas E. Scherer, your better candidate for United States Congress

Merely remember if I am elected to Congress, you the individual are my boss. PACS, Lobbyists and Special Interest Groups, sorry, but just go away. Americans are tired of the United PACS of America buying and corrupting our congressman and Senators. Our candidate is not for sale.
