Open Letter to Tom Tancredo & the People of Colorado

July 29th, 2010 | No Comments

Dear Tom, and the People of Colorado:

I take pen in hand, so to speak, in order to present why I was willing to cast the first, and perhaps most important vote, in the Colorado Gubernatorial contest for 2010.  There has been an intense struggle over this change in the political landscape these past two weeks.  The outcry has been loud from every corner of this state, and even from those from outside our state, both decrying the move and as well, cheering with great enthusiasm

Colorado, we face a Tyranny worse than in our distant past because it is insidiously eating away at our freedoms like cancer spreading tendrils to every organ.  Our peculiar Tyranny is a Federal Government that has overgrown Constitutional boundaries with hurricane force.  We cannot , and we must not, shrink from the task at hand.

I stepped aside to give way to the strongest force for freedom in the State of Colorado, Congressman Tom Tancredo.  Say what you will, his direct speech is such that even the most apathetic can grasp the urgency and the necessity of why we must now act.  It is time for hapless candidates, and wandering political hacks besotted with imagined power, to stand to and step aside for the cause of Freedom.

Hickenlooper has not yet spent a dime and we can all be sure that he and the Anointed One are rubbing their hands together in glee at the wholesale collapse of the Republican Party in Colorado.  I am wholly disappointed that neither Scott McInnis, nor Dan Maes, can see beyond their own narrow self-interest to the interests of those they would govern.  The GOP should begin their own withdrawal from the gubernatorial contest now before us.  Far better to give way to one of Colorado’s strongest conservative voices than to allow one of their own to fall on a political sword in a hapless and Quixotic beau-geste.

I implore all Coloradoans to stop drinking from the well of party loyalty.  I ask those who are wallowing in the misery of anguish at the thought of “influence lost” to grab hold of the ground swell of affirmation even now building behind the campaign for Congressman Tancredo.

To those who cry out “all is lost – Hickenlooper is upon us…” I say “Nay dear friends – Say it Not!” I implore all Coloradoans to consider, as I have, the fate of our children and our children’s children.   Our government is forcing us down an ashen path away from the Trickle Down Economics of the Reagan Era for the Tumble Down Economics of a radically socialist left.  We must stand up and be counted as our Revolutionary Forefathers were nearly 240 years ago.   We need, we must and we should be asking ourselves “Will we leave posterity a better future to enjoy than we currently have today?”

I am convinced that when voters settle down at the kitchen table to cast their vote in the privacy of their home, or in the intimate setting of a voting booth, more than enough will come to the very same conclusion that I have already come to:  Tom Tancredo for Governor.  He stands ready to battle for our Freedoms and to stand against the Tyranny of a dismissive Federal Government.  He brings credibility, strength, and strength of conviction to this most critical election of our lifetime.  It’s also why I believe  that the Congressman will soon be known as Governor Tancredo.

Thank you for granting me the honor of stepping aside so that you could pursue the role you were born to fill on behalf of the people of the State of Colorado.  Go Get ‘Em Tanc!

Most sincerely and with great respect,

Benjamin D. Goss

Guns & Religion Blog … in short

During the 2008 Presidential campaign, then-candidate Obama stated that there was a certain set of our society that "clings to their guns & religion." While the Blog title and URL are a play on his criticisms, the purpose of this Blog is to provide a forum of exchange that demonstrates that those of us who are concerned about our 1st and 2nd Amendment rights are not only intelligent, but we are determined to keep them.

Now is not the time to be waffling on the Bill of Rights and allowing a runaway Federal Government to keep taking more and more away from its citizens. This Blog is about standing up and making the statement: "Stop, enough is enough!"
