Neocon Soft Spots:

In pointing this out , Ron Paul has pinpointed the exact weak point in neocon methodology and ideology - and that is the reason why co-called “conservative” voices now come out of the woodworks to attack him in every way they can. He has also pointed out on other occasions that a strategy of making war on Iraq in order to “fight terrorism on foreign soil rather than our own” makes zero sense when one remembers that the same administration is doing everything it can to leave our unprotected border with Mexico wide open to the exact same terrorists, and others.

And therein lies hidden the second sore point, the second weak point on which Paul so successfully attacks neocon ideology and strategy. The Bush administration is leaving the border unprotected because it actively pursues efforts to administratively merge the US with Mexico and Canada under an arrangement widely perceived as a North American Union.

In doing so, it is not alone. Democrats are widely in favor of supporting the same scheme, although they dare not come out and say so because their strategy is to let the “conservatives” take the blame for that when a helpless population will express its outrage after it’s too late to do anything about it. Their intentions are revealed, however, by the fact that they are certainly making no effort to thwart his plan.

This second weak point is the linchpin of the necon/neoliberal establishment strategy for the coming few years. The United States is to be merged with other nations in a hemispheric arrangement that allows the resulting administrative and political entity to do away with constitutional restrictions on government power, once and for all.

For as long as this country remains independent and still - if only nominally in most cases - adheres to constitutional principle, the power-mongers behind the political establishment on both sides of the by now illusory “aisle” are thwarted in their efforts to impose total control over otherwise freedom-loving Americans. Once that hurdle is overcome, nothing stands in their way, and they will have unquestioned control over the world’s largest arsenal of military weaponry that ever existed to further pursue their nefarious aims.

The Real Political Divide:

This relatively minor spat between Ron Paul and Rudy Giuliani during the second GOP debate has laid bare for all to see the essence of the true ideological divide in American politics. It is decidedly not the phony divide between “left” and “right”, Democrat and Republican, conservative versus libertarian, patriot versus un-American miscreant, rich versus poor, black versus white, pro-abortion versus anti-abortion, or whatever other concocted issue there may be.

It is the divide between those who want to transform this nation into what it was never intended to be, into what its population would never knowingly and willingly endorse and submit to - and those who simply want to stay free and who actually know what’s at stake.

If being on the side of freedom and American independence places me into the ranks of tin foil hat-wearing nut jobs (according to the estimation of our neo-conned, ex-conservative, contingent), I will gladly accept the honor - and wear my hat with pride.

Judging from the way the political winds are shifting, tin foil will certainly become an exquisitely rare commodity in US supermarkets.
