Substitute Obama for every Prime Minister

John Adams once said, "Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it." The most profound excerpt of this quote is, the right of the people alone to institute and manage government. We have lost sight of the importance and value of that right. We have sat idle by and watched as our beloved republic has become a true democracy. As I have quoted many times before, a democracy will cease to exist when the populous realizes they can vote themselves the treasury. This will, without equivocation, lead to the collapse of America as a world power and leader in the free world of humanism. When achievement is not only unrewarded, but discouraged and punished, America will witness our demise and the brevity will be shocking. When citizens lose the will for achievement, they also surrender unknowingly their responsibility and accountability. Perhaps the most detrimental perversion to occur within our republic is the discouragement and inability to question our government and its leaders. The framers of the Constitution not only made available this right to free speech, but demanded it to ensure freedoms to every citizen and further our prosperity. The President has become a figure whom no one shall dare to hold to a higher standard. President Obama's arrogant and annoyed retort to the question of why it took two days to respond to the AIG bonuses not only permanently black-balled the reporter from further press conferences in the White House, but encompassed the fundamental disconnect between our citizens and its government. Until that perception changes, we are Coriolisly spiraling just like our toilet water.
