MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I LOATHE HER WORDS, BUT I UPHOLD HER RIGHT TO SPEAK THEM

In Washington, fourth January 2001, a Democrat-led House of Representatives voted to remove Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene from appointments to the Education and Labour Committee and from the Budget Committee.  This was a mistake; In a nation so factionally divided it has established a dangerous precedent. 

Such partisan actions to not work.  The case of John Wilkes in England in 1768 proved this, when public furore forced an overweening Establishment to back down, which led to the legal acceptance of the principle of Freedom of the Press.  Whether or not Republican Representative Greene serves on Committees is a matter for the Republican Congress who uphold her and the Electors of Georgia who chose her.  Democrat representatives may say what wish, but they have not the competence to decide which Republican Representative the Republicans should choose to sit on any Committee.

America will not be united by Senators and Representative on the Hill playing party politics. 

The Representative for Georgia, Marjorie Taylor Greene, declares that the alleged gun-massacre at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida, on Saint Valentine’s day, 2018, is a hoax.  The House Representative for Georgia states that fourteen-year-old Alyssa Alhadeff did not die in pool of her own blood, but is alive and well and gone into hiding; that other teenagers, Nicholas Dworet, Jaime Guttenberg, Luke Hoyer, Cara Loughran, were not killed by rifle bullets or any kind of trauma, but remain alive and well; that the twelve other school students and staff said to have been killed did not die, and that their public funerals were a series of elaborate charades.

The people of Georgia who voted to elect Representative Greene, knew her character, and chose to approve her actions.  However much the rest of the world may be appalled, the people of Georgia have a natural absolute and indefeasible right to vote as their consciences decide; but do they vote by conscience or by the colour of the shirt they wear?

America will not be healed until its People, choose to cast their vote in conscience’s sake, until the Grand Old red republican can say, “Today I will elect the better candidate, whether they profess to be Republican or Democrat,” and the blue liberal democrat chooses to say, “Today I will elect the candidate who has the truer heart, whether they are supported by the Democrat Party or the Republican.”

Of course, America is abhorred throughout the world, as a nation where legal trials are decided not on the evidence but on the political affiliation of the Judge, where public appointments such as Chief of Police are decided not on a candidate’s qualification, but on whether they declare themselves Republican or Democrat. 

It is the people who are to blame.  In America, a weak-hearted population have allowed themselves to be pressured into declaring themselves Republican or Democrat; and a Republican elector must cast their vote for the Republican candidate, howsoever unqualified for office that candidate may be, and a Democrat elector must cast their vote for the Democrat candidate, howsoever unworthy or criminous their candidate.  America is a nation of people who put their Party labels above the conscience of their own souls — above everything. 

Democrat Christians, in the Covid-19 epidemic, say, “I may be carrying the Covid virus, therefore I shall wear a face mask to prevent me spreading the virus to others.”  This may sound noble, but this charity does not arise from Christian love, but only because they wear the colour blue.

Republican Christians worship a different God, and openly profess, “If I am carrying the Covid virus, I will go into the street and spread it broadly with every out-breath, and God! if I infect someone else it is your fault, and God! if someone dies from me not wearing a face mask, their death is on your hands;” and this anti-Christian wickedness does not arise from a hatred of God, but simply because they wear the colour red.
