Me, Senator Linda Chesterfield & The Facts: April 7, 2013
Recently I have written missives faulting Senator Joyce Elliott for offering up Senate Bills each session, in this case SB 915 which grants unconstitutional largesse to children of illegal Mexican alien parents, legal & illegal, and OTMâs in the form of in-state tuition. The unconstitutional largesse Senator Elliott proposes is more outright theft taken by force from the producers.
Senator Chesterfield, in response to my missives has labeled me âuncivil, making nasty accusations against her colleaguesâ and further stating my writings are âunwelcome & unwarrantedâ.
Like all progressives/Marxists she hurls incendiaries, e.g. racist, xenophobe, bigot, but in this case she uses the aforementioned denigrations without one shred of evidence or a defense of her statements. Never do they produce evidence. Many times the truth causes gastric discomfort.
She offers up her academic profile as being one of History & Political Science, injecting the statement that she was âconfounded by reference to our Founding Principlesâ and that our Founders were âimmigrantsâ. You would expect a history major and an Arkansas State Senator would indeed be more knowledgeable and understanding regarding the Founding of our Republic.
My emails contain no statements regarding the immigration status of the Founders, but the Senator for some reason ties her non-point of the Founders immigration status to the aforementioned Founding Principles.
At this juncture I will offer a definition of what an immigrant is, for Senator Chesterfield and any others in the House & Senate who may not know the correct definition of an immigrant. I will use Howard Sutherlandâs definition. Without going into a lot a lot of peripheral information, it can simply be stated âImmigrants are people who leave one country, one society and move to another society. But there has to be a recipient society to which the immigrants move. In our case, the recipient society was created by settlers who came here in the 17th & 18th centuries. It was the settlersâ (of which the Founders were a part) Anglo-Protestant society and culture that attracted subsequent generations of immigrants to this country.â
The Founders were settlers, not immigrants. We are a nation with immigrants, not a nation of immigrants.
The Founding Principles were solidly based on concepts of the Enlightenment, e.g. individual rights & liberties, according to philosophers John Locke, et al. (Read the Declaration of Independence). What is âconfoundingâ about that fact?
Certainly not what is occurring today at all levels of government: Observe the present unconstitutional practices being proposed in the Arkansas House & Senate, i.e. the bill SB915 previously described and the Marxist/Obamacare proposal to add ¼ million more add-ons to terminal welfare (citizens & illegals) and the moment this legislation, if passed, the ¼ million people will automatically become eligible for all entitlement programs as everyone should know, bringing the grand total of Arkansans on welfare to over 1 million, accompanied by inherent abuses.
Citizensâthis legislative behavior proves once more that Collectivism (Socialism/Fascism/Communism) is winning the battle over the individual rights to life, liberty, property and the pursuit of happiness.
