You can find me in my room My refuge in a home I have lived in for too long Eating my bowl of hamhock soup with beans Recording Churchill's speeches on my iphone What a good man he was We must stand up to evil Stand up to those who threaten liberal democracies But in America today Our greatest enemy lies within, not without Our own government not holding fast To the principles upon which it was founded False illusions that this economic situation Is under control Like bailouts,stimulus packages, jobs bills, Regulation in industry, unconstitutional power grabs, Dismissal of historical laws, changes in the legislative process And changes in checks and balaces of power We have a false sense of security Big government is hurting us Not helping us TSA pat downs NSA privacy intrusions Destabilazation Over arching centralized government model Begins to take control A New World Order Is what they have planned No more national sovereignty I'm not going to the FEMA camp
