Unfortunately, the U.S. government is not very American anymore; or, so-called "Americanism" has been radically changed by the U.S. government, and is getting worse and worse every day; thus making it embarrassing to be American anymore. No wonder more and more people around the world hate us. I absolutely love this country; but, for very good reason(s), as millions of Americans do, I absolutely abhor what the U.S. government has become, and is becoming more and more; an authoritarian, very soon to be totalitarian, police state.

Our liberties and freedoms, and the U.S. Constitution itself, are being abrogated and eradicated, and American citizens can be and are falsely, fraudulently and unconstitutionally accused of "perceived threatening conduct" under the so-called "USA PATRIOT Act", simply for getting angry at a federal employee, looking cross-eyed at them, or for doing nothing at all but being falsely accused of having done so. Thus, more and more innocent Americans are being wrongfully criminalized in order to falsely discredit them and make them law enforcement targets.

This criminalization of law-abiding citizens is also so the government has something to use against them and imprison them with in the future if those citizens have any further run-ins with the government, to make them falsely look like "habitual criminals", and demonize them to the public. In addition, the fraudulent criminalization of greater and greater numbers of innocent Americans that the government is perpetrating on an escalating basis, is in order to scare such falsely accused people into not exercising, or not continuing to exercise, their Constitutional right(s) and DUTY(IES) to dissent and/or stand up against this destruction of liberty and freedom, the destruction of the Constitution, and this criminalization of innocent people, as well as against other unconstitutional government infringements; thus stifling, discouraging and eradicating the duty(ies) of dissent.

So much for a free country. So much for the U.S. being a bastion of liberty and freedom. So much for a government "of the People, by the People, for the People". So much for a truly "representative government". So much for the freedoms embodied in the Constitution. Now the U.S government is almost nothing but a government of the corporate-fascists, lobbyists and lawyers, by the corporate-fascists, lobbyists and lawyers, and for the corporate-fascists, lobbyists and lawyers. And, as far as they are concerned, "the People be damned!" They will not be satisfied until all of us are criminalized and presumed guilty of being "potential terrorists", and all suspected of being guilty of something; as almost everything, especially the God-given and Constitution-given human rights and civil liberties we are supposed to hold dear above all else, is being made "unlawful" and "criminal".

Once more, may God and the People save the United States of America!

Obama reenacted the Patriot Act. I have written extensively about the dangers of The Patriot Act and The Military Commissions Act of 2006 for four years and this president has shown himself to be, except for a name difference, GW Bush from head to toe. He is no Progressive and I knew that going in when his Medical adviser rudely rejected my plan to cover 300 million people under medicare by taxing Outsourcers, Nationalizing Pharma's, hospitals and physicians and turning all over to the Major Universities for management.

Obama will never again get my vote even if he runs for dogcatcher. He has betrayed his voter base. Aside from JFK, and briefly when Jimmy Carter capped oil at $8-$10 a barrel and hit big Oil with a Windfall Profits tax, Progressive Movement began dying, withering, when FDR Died. China, in God's odd ironic way, now seems. despite its past a more humane nation striving to make jobs for its entire citizen base, which is 3+ times the size of ours, while American corporations embrace treason, by seeking to weaken us by throwing it's labor base into the gutter and stripping citizens of retirement.
