The Democratic Governors Association has characterized members of the Tea Party movement as “political terrorists”. And well they might, for Democrat elitism and worship of government as the source of all good is the direct antithesis of what our Founding Fathers envisioned for America. Government encroachment on our liberties and intrusion in our lives is precisely what gave birth to the Tea Party and the 912 movements. 

As Americans wake up to the intellectual dishonesty of those claiming to support freedom, even as they legislate massive entitlements that mandate dependency on government, these demagogues have every reason to be afraid – not for their lives, but for the impending loss of the plush trappings of the public offices which they have used for their own gain at the expense of our freedom and our national security.

The real travesty in the development of public policy today is the absence of truth in the method used to define a problem, whether it is the "climate change" fraud or the health care "crisis".

When a government refuses to acknowledge truth, derived using the scientific method which includes and tests all variables, includes data that contraindicates the hypothesis, and welcomes critical thinking and challenges to that hypothesis, we are on the brink of tyranny of a sort that is lethal to both the founding principles of our republic and to the human spirit that is the fuel needed to preserve it.
