Heirs of Liberty Press

Elected

We, the ill educated people---actually chose President Barack Hussein Obama.

Is anyone else wondering how this happened?

Even Hitler was an appointed bully who executed his way, literally, to power. Will history ponder that we weren'€™t a desperate people but truly and completely ignorant? Let us consider that despite the heavy dose of pro-liberty talk on the waves and constitutional legalese in print, we the people remain miseducated.

I hear liberal-minded folks who have convinced themselves that they hate hate-radio, even sweet-tempered Sean, and have mentally blocked it as a viable source of information. Now that i€™s hate!

Furthermore, there is little likelihood that there is anything like a broad awareness of, say, Wallbuilders, National Center for Constitutional Studies, the P.I.G. series, William Bennett'€™s recounting of our history in America: The Last Best Hope, or the study done by Donald S. Lutz and Charles S. Hyneman, which tallies original sources quoted in the development of the United States Constitution. Why I trust these sources is evident when you open them to the back and see that they are footnoted to death, as are the more pop editions written by Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity or Dr. Michael Savage.

All of these people have done their homework.

Give a read to Paul Kengor's well-sourced biographies, Victor Davis Hanson'€™s takes on Western Civilization, or Britain's Paul Johnson'€™s prolific writings.

Pick up ANYTHING outside your box, citizen liberale.

Textbook content, brought to you by the likes of William Ayers, and mainstream media news by Jeffrey Zucker and ilk needs to be checked, double and triple checked (as in questioned, ya know?) because of the apparent underlying (or not so under) agenda and the utter absence of documented, original (as in not copies) sources.

What comes to mind is a popular series used here for home school. Read it cover to cover and thoroughly puked its content. The anti-American slant on our history was unmistakable. Hakim is the left-winger'€™s name. There are no sources listed other than picture credits, because lies are formulated, never documented. The intentions are clear to the educated less-than-half of us the people.

Those who have sought out original sources should have compassion on the miseducated sheeple. After all, but for the grace of God, there go I.

Nevertheless, there is a civic responsibility to seek truth because THE DEBATE IS NEVER OVER, UNLESS OPPRESSION IS YOUR CUP OF TEA.
