Excellent! Senator Rand Paul Takes On Government Bullies
Submitted by Revolutionaries on Sun, 11/11/2012 - 01:00Book Review by The New American: Government Bullies: How Everyday Americans Are Being Harassed, Abused, and Imprisoned by the Feds
The bad news is that after little more than a year and a half in federal office, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) was able to fill a book full of instances he has come across of outrageous abuses of power by government officials lording it over people they allegedly serve. The good news is that there are a few people in Congress willing to stand up and sound the alarm over a once-free nation’s slide into the practices and policies of a police state. In a Congress that is shamefully servile before an overreaching and arrogant executive branch, Rand Paul and his father, U.S. Representative and two-time Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul (R-Texas), who wrote the foreword for his son’s book, stand out as men who take seriously their oath to uphold the Constitution.
Paul’s slender volume contains 21 chapters filled with one story after another of “government bullies” trampling on the rights of Americans in their homes and places of business. One paragraph sums up the tyranny of a government that has jumped the tracks of its legal and reasonable limits:

If Rand continues to fight against these kinds of evils...

Ron Paul: "If you ever can bring about revolutionary changes two things would be required: young people... and music."
Good review.
What I find interesting about many of the examples of government bullying mentioned in the book is that they have been going on for quite a long time. These are not the result of 9/11 like the TSA personal assaults. Many of the raids and prosecutions resulted from the UN Agenda 21 and EPA overreach. This is all part of the move to world government and loss of sovereignty.
There was however no mention of specific remedies for those hapless individuals caught in this web and spending years in prison for no detectable cause. Perhaps a new political platform plank could be to pardon all those serving sentences for these offences.
It is good that someone in a position of some authority is at least publicising these things and the book itself should perhaps be used in promotional efforts for the Constitutional conservative message.
