The darling cotton top Senator Chris Dodd said goodbye to Connecticut
today. Well, next year he will finally
leave the state completely fed up
with his lack of accountability, so Connecticut is stuck with the liberal
mooch
for 12 more months. But wasn’t it simply the most darling speech
you have ever heard, or seen; a Senator
saying goodbye, surrounded by his
adoring wife and cute little girls?
At least this leader wasn’t announcing
homosexuality, Latina mistresses,
or fathered children campaign coquettes.
Dodd made reference to his sister,
who died from cancer, his own battle
with cancer, and the most beloved Senator in the history of drinking,
driving,
and lampshade attire: Ted Kennedy.
The farewell speech had all the pomp and ceremony of all phony send-offs.
Dodd reference Kennedy so many times, one wondered if the late senator
might sit up in his grave. Dodd told the
press he passed four important
pieces of legislature this year and the most important bill is his vote on
the healthcare
bill most Americans do not want. To that he added, that
after giving his vote, he walked through Arlington National
Cemetery, “on
that snowy Christmas Eve day,” and “stood on the snow-covered hillside,”
“looking
down upon the grave” of his dear friend Teddy’s “brother’s
grave,” and “thinking
of Teddy.” It was like Frost was speaking on a
wintery night.
Yes, let us pass this nearly trillion-dollar
healthcare bill so Ted
Kennedy can be canonized.
And let us not forget what day this is: January 6th, Epiphany
Day. Dodd
made sure his lips were suctioned tightly to the Pope’s robes by
mentioning he was speaking
on just such a day. It might lend help in
forgiveness for aiding and abetting in the Wall Street disaster and
questionable acquirements of Irish property.
I love adorable leaders who use dead people and Catholic holidays
in
attempt to shove exorbitantly expensive healthcare bills down the throats
of choking-to-survive Americans.
Dodd’s actions are Statist, they are reason he must leave office:
Connecticut is fed up with his lack of
discipline and neglect to protect
the state’s right to self government and its rights and needs to create
jobs
through lower taxes and welfare reform he refused to amend and is the
cause for Connecticut businesses leaving the state
and factory job losses
over the last thirty years.
Dodd denies his actions are his reasons for resignation.
He said he is
aware of his political standing with the citizens of Connecticut: “There
are particular times
and actions that have caused some of you [people of
Connecticut] to question that confidence [you had in me], I regret
that,
[but] I have never wavered in my determination to do the best job for our
state and our nation.”
Yet Dodd insisted none of those “circumstances
that happened over the last couple years” are the reason he
is resigning.
His misdeeds have indeed forced him out, because the people of Connecticut
have had enough of
a Senator who “loves his job,” but does not prove so by
doing his job.
In ending his speech, Senator
Dodd made a particular remark, a
declaration, which, unfortunately will go over the heads of most
Americans.
The rhetorical phrase is all too common and utterly and
completely false: Dodd stated “The work to make our nation
a more perfect
union began long before I was elected to this Senate and it will go on
long after I am gone.”
Those words are correct, our Founders did work
tirelessly “to form a more perfect Union,” but the next words
are the
unfortunate repercussion of the 35 years of Chris Dodd’s constant
disservice to Connecticut. These
utterances are erroneous and the
foundation for Statism: “Our country is a work in progress and I am
confident
that it always will be.”

America is no longer a work in progress. The development and evolution,
the making steps forward to create a working country, ended in
Philadelphia in 1789 when the American Founders signed
the Constitution
into law. The progress to create a nation was completed in 1789; the
actual work we Americans
today must continue is just that: continuance and
preservation of the Constitution, upholding it and our Declaration
of
Independence and our great Founding. We must fight to keep it alive for
future generations, not work to
make a new union, which is what Dodd is de
facto implying: change America.
Dodd’s words have been embedded
into the minds of Americans for
generations now, and Americans actually believe our nation is a revolving
work in
progress with a living, breathing Constitution that devolves
through evolution.
Dodd, and many leaders in
power in both parties, are the reason the
country is on a collision course through Eurocratic ideology: the belief
America must be remade over into something better suited: Statism, the
control of government over every aspect of people’s
lives.
Chris Dodd is not the only leader who must resign, we the people have a
charge to keep, a role we must
take part in, and that is to see that every
leader who has served us with ill will be removed and replaced with
Constitutional
Originalists.
Chris Dodd was in office 35 years, eight terms, and four decades in the
National Assembly; that
is too long for anyone to serve without the
temptation to become lazy and consumed with power and pomp while
worshipping
faux monarchy they pay homage to through with disastrous votes
for bills that will, if enacted, destroy this nation and
its people.
