25 QUESTIONS: That We
Should Demand Be Answered By Our Leaders by Les Weaver 10/9/15 Clash Daily
Contributor
Our governments from municipal
to federal have grown exponentially since our country’s
founding. That growth is not just in quantity but also in percent of
population. Laws and regulations have increased to an uncountable level with
many thousands obsolete but not repealed. Like a cancer, for decades
government has even begun to feed on itself. That cancer first begins
by the big fish, (federal) devouring the small fish, (municipal), and then
works its way to bigger fish; i.e. County and State Governments.
Every day, more and more
questions arise that can be defined as political self-cannibalism of the
Federal Government. The Federal Government just can’t get enough to
satisfy its appetite for more power and control. The menu to satisfy
that appetite totally ignores the 10th Amendment to the Constitution, the
superior law of the land. To label the Federal Government as “out of
control” is itself an understatement of the fearful obvious.
Our Constitution was
intended to guarantee equal justice for all under the law. The
problem is that laws, regulations, ethics and political correctness create
confusion about what is or is not permitted on any given day or under a
particular circumstance.
That confusion has
stimulated me to write out some questions. I ask my peers, am I
missing something about the formation and purpose of our
government? In any event, feel free to add to this list for it is
far from complete. And then, pass it on.
1.
Why does this
Administration encourage Muslim immigration but not Christian immigration?
2.
Why does this government
protect the Koran but no longer the Bible?
3.
Why are we advised NOT
to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to
judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics?
4.
Why are
we constantly hearing about how Social Security is going to run out of
money but we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of money?
5.
Why are we cutting
benefits for our veterans, giving near no pay raises and cutting our military
to less than pre-WWII levels but we are not cutting or reducing payments to
illegal aliens such as monthly payments for each child, money for housing, food
stamps, free education and also college while granting the right to covertly
vote?
6.
If Black Lives Matter,
why do they treat themselves and each other so badly?
7.
Why does the
administration talk gun control over the mass shooting of ten but not use as
example, the killing of 15 in the President’s home town?
8.
Why is the motto “Black
Lives Matter” but the saying that “All Lives Matter” results in a war between
races seemingly stimulated by government?
9.
Why does part of the
government, (BLM, EPA, etc.) spend millions of tax dollars to protect flora,
fauna and fungi while other parts of this same government, (HHS, etc.) grant
and spend unaccounted millions of tax dollars to kill unborn humans?
10.
Why is it that on the
entire globe, the U.S. spends the most per student by far and yet is 20th and
below on actual post-graduate knowledge and capability?
11.
Why is the term
“Domestic Terrorist” accepted but the term “Islamic Terrorist” discouraged and
in government circles, even banned?
12.
Why do so many persons
lose all sense of honor, honesty and integrity once they obtain an office in
Washington, D.C.?
13.
Why do so many
politicians that spew rage that illegals should not take U.S. jobs also vilify
strengthening and enforcing E-Verify, and penalizing illegal employers?
14.
Why do those congress
members that voted for ObamaCare exempt both themselves and their staff from
enrolling in what they voted on for the rest of us?
15.
Why do so many citizens
that claim their disgust at the government continue to perpetuate this same
government by returning the scoundrels over and over again?
16.
Why are so many blind to
laws that are passed to “benefit and protect” the people but include a clause
to exempt the very people that created and passed the law?
17.
Why was the
Democrat Kentucky county clerk, Kim Davis, who refused to issue same-sex
marriage licenses because of religious objections, arrested for contempt of
court but the chief of the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of
Columbia, Cathy Lanier, gets a pass for refusing to issue concealed weapons
permits to people unless they can arbitrarily show a “good reason,” although
not required by law?
18.
Why is Harvard
considered an Acme of education when of the two alumna that occupy the White
House, one believes the U.S. has 57 States and the other believes that all 56
signers of the Declaration of Independence were born outside of the U.S.?
19.
After winning an
election, what is it about the trip to Washington, D.C. that turns a servant of
the people into a tyrannical ruler of the people?
20.
Why should the average
High School graduate attend further academics when winning an election at any
level suddenly advances your mental capacity and ability far beyond
non-politicians regardless of their education or experience?
21.
Why can members of one
party lie and perjure before congress without penalty but members of another
party can be jailed for years for the same offense?
22.
What is it about the
first trip to Washington, D.C. after winning an election that causes the newly
elected to suddenly morph from representing constituents to self-absorbance?
23.
Why do an increasing
number of citizens that once revered this government now fear it?
24.
Why is it that only the
free speech that echoes the President’s agenda is accepted as having substance
while contrary speech may result in arrest?
25.
Why is the handout of
copies of The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution on campuses of
education becoming disallowed?

Weaver: Born into abject poverty in 1934, he spent his teen years on farms as a
foster child and was classified as a farm laborer when he joined the Navy in
1952. After that service, he had a short stint at a University but moved on to
35 years associated with the engineering and technical sciences in Aero-Space,
retiring from two Aerospace giants in senior positions and a small business.
Until retirement, his writing experience was limited to technical occupational
reports. His wife is a German immigrant, now a proud American and together they
enjoy gardening. Les takes breaks from gardening to express himself to the
politicians by phone, email and now thru ClashDaily/DougGiles.
