Tyranny Is Here

Washington Times:

"Not content to have the government control the very air we exhale, some liberal members of Congress want to regulate every drop of water in the country and the land on which it sits. If they get their wish, the government would exercise dominion over land, air and sea to an extent never before seen.

Earlier this week came news of the decision by the power-hungry Environmental Protection Agency that carbon dioxide, which all animals and people exhale with every breath, amounts to an "endangerment" of human health. Now comes Rep. James Oberstar, Minnesota Democrat and chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, to try to match a Senate committee that already advanced a bill to radically expand the scope of federal water regulations. Last week, Mr. Oberstar's staff repeated his determination to do likewise by year's end, with a bill misnamed the Clean Water Restoration Act (CWRA)."

Now this would essentially give them control of every water source in this country. Every swimming pool, every back yard pond, every indent in the road that collects water when it rains.

The government has also just passed or is in the process of passing a measure, that limits the volume of commercials on TV. They want to control how loud a commercial is. Where does liberalism end? Where is the cut off point? When do you get to keep freedom. With this president and this congress, the question is not what of our property and liberty do we get taken, it's what of our property and liberty do we get to keep.
