Something Ironic

Something I found interesting ironically posted on Congress.org:

If I believed in conspiracies, I might believe in one with a scenario that goes something like this:

[*the simplistic version] An Election takes places in this country where a group of very powerful, very rich would-be Autocrats rig and steal the Presidency. Shortly afterwards, a massive terrorist attack takes place, one which is very convenient to the cause of these would-be Autocrats and their ideology. In fact, in their writings they were hoping for a New Pearl Harbor and it was delivered to them in the most dramatic manner. The attack not only was useful in their global imperialistic desire to conquer other nations, but also in their goals to eventually change the very fabric of this nation's government, Constitution and society.
The Autocratic Puppet President and the man pulling the strings behind him, his secretive Vice-President Puppet Master and the Puppet Makers behind them have done all the right things to ensure that the agenda of their Neo-Conservative-National-Socialist Party has infiltrated the government. The Puppet President really believes that "dictatorships are great as long as he is the dictator".
Under the guise of Patriotism, they force Congress to pass an Act which has it's primary focus on eliminating the Rights of the Citizens, not terrorism. In fact, they make it possible to virtually destroy the Right of Habeas Corpus and give themselves the power to declare any Citizen an "enemy combatant", toss them in prison without charges, trial, or any of the legal Rights guaranteed them in the Constitution.
Another Presidential campaign comes and goes, except this time political dissent, free speech and visual opposition are all contained far from the Puppet President's campaign trail. The Autocratic Puppet President is naturally re-elected during war-time and begins his second term.
They then seek to hold more control over the Citizens and have Congress pass a national ID Act, one in which they are able to basically track and gather information on each and every Citizen.
Another disaster hits the nation, this time a natural disaster that is vastly destructive and the response of the agency that manages such disaster is, very conveniently, a dismal failure. The failure of the agency responsible for managing disasters gives the Autocrats a perfect opportunity to eliminate the only law that keeps the Military from being used by the government for domestic law enforcement, and opens the door for the plan to eventually impose martial law upon the nation.
Scandal rocks the Neo-Con-National-Socialist-Party, the war is going poorly, yet the Puppet Makers and their Puppets continue to drive their policies to fulfillment. Patriotism is still the "newspeak" trigger word that they use to inflame the nation for their cause.
With another Presidential Election a couple of years away, the plans of the Neo-Con-Socialist Party must carried out with perfection. Although their man is not allowed by the Constitution to serve as President again, in their minds, that is no reason to remove him from Office.
It is a few months before the election, another convenient attack takes place within a large city, the attack kills tens of thousands of people and the plan is executed. A national emergency is declared, martial law is imposed. Executive Order becomes law, the Constitution, Congress and Supreme Court are suspended. All guns are confiscated from the Citizens, private ownership of gold and silver is declared illegal, all information in the media and on the internet is regulated and now only promotes the Party Propaganda Line. All political dissidents and opposition groups are declared to be "enemy combatants" and are imprisoned.
The Neo-Conservative National Socialist Party is now in absolute power.

*Disclaimer-this story is, of course, just a simplistic work of fiction.

I believe that the Republican Party has been, for all intents and purposes, hijacked by the Neo-Con National Socialist. I also believe that the Democrats and the Republicans are now just two sides of the same coin and they all dance to the tune of Corporate Fascism. While I have been a Republican for decades, I can no longer support the Republican Party nor can I turn my allegiance to the Democratic Party. I can now only support the one Party that has the true interest of the Citizens of this Nation at heart, and that is the Libertarian Party. Although I am not in total agreement with the Libertarian Party, I do believe that they are the Party of the People.'
