The Bird Has Flown

POTUS has shown over and over again that he has no respect for the law or convention. As far as he is concerned, he is the law by virtue of having been elected president. He can follow the law, or just as easily ignore it. He can even impose new law and make it retroactive. This is pure madness.

In an ordinary environment, Obama would not be able to get away with it. It is a servile press that enables Obama’s madness, serving as a mere extension of his will. It never challenges; it glosses over any contradictions that might arise, often evidenced by raised eyebrows. The only interest the media has is in proclaiming that POTUS wins.

“The wild worship of lawlessness and the materialist worship of law (both) end in the same void. Nietzsche scales staggering mountains, but he turns up ultimately in Tibet. He sits down beside Tolstoy in the land of nothing and Nirvana. They both are helpless—one because he must not grasp anything and the other because he must not let go of anything. The Tolstoyan’s will is frozen by a Buddhist instinct that all deliberate actions are evil. But the Nietzscheite’s will is quite equally frozen by his view that all deliberate actions are good; for if all deliberate actions are good, none of them are deliberate. They stand at the crossroads, and one hates all the roads and the other likes all the roads. The result is—well, some things are not hard to calculate.” - G. K. Chesterton.

Where does that leave us? We must submit and recognize that we have been conquered. Or, we must revolt. Clearly, the way it now stands, ours is no longer the American way. We may in fact no longer be living in what has been historically known as ‘America’.

The landmass still exists and will continue to exist as it has existed for thousands of years. And for some, this is comfort enough. But, there is no doubt that America’s spirit has flown elsewhere, seeking to find a more robust mate.
