Dear Editor,
The world and country we live in today make me wonder if all society has fallen through a rabbit hole into Wonderland or stepped through the looking-glass.
We seem to have handed our government over to the March Hare, the Mad Hatter, Tweedledee and Tweedledum. (You can decide who is who.) Today what is right is changed to wrong and what is wrong is made to be right.
The President and Supreme Court make law, contrary to the Constitution. The Congress passes laws with thousands of pages with ambiguous language like the book found within the looking-glass, “Jabberwocky”, whose reversed printing can be read only by holding it up to the mirror. Our leader and his queen, who seem to be very absent-minded, boast of (and demonstrate) their ability to remember future events before they have happened (Michelle Obama: “Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.”) Barack Hussein Obama stated on October 30, 2008, “five days from now we will fundamentally change America.”
From 1960 to 2013 the Code of Federal Regulations has grown from 22,877 pages to 178,536 (the latest numbers I could find). These rules reach down to our workplace, neighborhood, and into our homes. Because of this (according to what I have heard and read) the average citizen could be found to unknowingly commit at least three felonies a day.
Then there is also the Tax code which, as of 2013, consisted of almost four million words—-about five times the length of the King James Bible. So complicated it is that even the IRS cannot get it correct.
And now, after the last Supreme Court decisions, if everyone goes along, they continue to help fundamentally change America.
I think the USA as we knew it is over and Obama is reaching his goal. The Constitution is gone and we are ruled by Dumb and Dumber. Elections have consequences. Welcome to our new Bizarro world.
