Over at the Urban
Dictionary website they offer the following explanation and/or definition of
the phrase, “May the force be with you.”Saying "May the force be with you" would be to wish someone well, that they would succeed and be protected from dangers. The Force can enhance natural physical and mental abilities, including strength and accuracy, according to the Star Wars movies.It can mean the same thing. It can also mean: good luck, be well, good fortune, may good things happen to you.
Well
I believe that just about sums up what most people thought…that is until the
thought police decided they ought to take the ‘may’ option out of the slogan
and impose their dictatorial stance.
It
now appears that the ‘progressives’ have
made ‘force’ a way of life whether we like it or not. The
following from BUZZPO: (I hope the following forces are not with you.)
Progressives have given themselves the power to …
- Force Americans to tell the
government about the books they read and to write
book reports on them
- Force Americans to remain
silent when ordered to by a secret court
- Force Americans to
remain silent when their
daughter is taken away from them by a court
- Force Americans to attend
and/or help celebrate a wedding ceremony to which they object
- Force Americans to
open up their wallets and give money to
a private company
- Force Americans to
pay for products and services they they will never–in
fact, cannot ever–use
- Force Americans–at gun
point–to stop selling raw milk
- Force Americans–at
gun point–to stop
selling guitars that are not union made
- Force Americans to join
labor unions
- Force Americans to give
their homes to big companies so they can build malls
- Force Americans to
put GPS trackers in their vehicles so
the government can track their movements
- Force Americans to
install “smart meters” in their homes so the
government can control their thermostats
- Force Catholics to
pay for abortions
What else can they force us to do?
Barack
Obama has about two years left in his term and he is going to apply a lot of
new force. There can be little doubt where his force will be aimed. One element
of human life that progressive loathe is religious liberty. Not only does the
First Amendment codify our religious liberties granted by God, it recognizes a
power greater than progressive ideology, it represents an area in the human
experience they cannot control. Barack Obama and his street activists will, in
the next few years, attempt force American churches to perform weddings that
violate their religious beliefs as is happening in
Europe. That won’t be the end, but if the once reasonable democrats—those
who still think there is anything “liberal” about their side—do not loudly
protest what is going to be a direct attack on the first right written into the
Bill of Rights, then an entire portion of our country—about 50% of people—will
have completely forsaken America.
I was going to interject, “If you do not know by now what a progressive is…” along with my
explanation but the author of the above has summed it up nicely with, “the once
reasonable democrats.”
Summing up my thoughts on the ‘force that’s with us’ is, “How
much longer are we as Americans going to put up with this? We should not have to be forced to wait for an election cycle!” Oh, and one more thing... Can you believe this? ↓
...and we once thought Communism was bad!
