Today's Tea Party Movement: A Flash in the Pan?
-Rocky Top Freedom 7/3/2013- Analysis During America's 237th Birthday...

It's been said that the modern day Tea Party movement is America's Great Awakening. 

We beg to differ.

While RTFC supports many of the same tenets of Constitutionally-based smaller government and the restoration of the original American Republic of independent and sovereign states sharing the burden of the bulk of America's governing power, we are convinced that today's Tea Party is destined for failure.

As evidenced by the re-election of Barack Hussein Obama, it's becoming increasingly clear that any gains realized in the midterm elections of 2010 have not only been erased, but we believe liberty has taken two steps backward for each step forward.

What's the problem? Witness if you will our U.S. Declaration of Independence, which outlines the following three basic rights granted all human beings by Nature's God:

1. The right to LIFE
2. The right to LIBERTY
3. The right to THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS (i.e. freedom of self-sufficiency) 

These rights are un-alienable (which means they cannot be bought, sold, transferred or abridged.)

We believe that Un-Alienable Right #1, "LIFE" is unquestionably the most basic right of all. Clearly without life the other two are moot and meaningless. 

The vast majority of Tea Party leaders, when confronted with their stance on the issue of the sanctity of human life might respond with something like, "Abortion is not our agenda." What these leaders really mean is, "We don't want to get involved in controversial social issues because we might make our members mad!" Heaven forbid they actually stand for something other than "money" issues and embrace something truly meaningful!

Rational people understand that complex problems are solvable only when their root causes are addressed, and as long as the assault on the irrevocable and foundational God-given right to live and breathe is not on the Tea Party's radar, enemies of freedom will continue to prosper. 

It is therefore RTFC's contention that because of its focus on symptoms rather than taking action on their associated root causes, the Tea Party movement will continue to suffer setbacks in the future and will ultimately fail. 

The solution of course is to embrace the pro-life movement (as we believe many of America's Founders would do were they alive today) but we don't foresee that happening anytime soon. As with virtually all Christian churches, Tea Parties have willingly bound themselves with what effectively is a gag order under the watchful eye of the IRS in the interest of receiving paltry tax exemptions, effectively rendering themselves impotent and ineffective against the tyrannical onslaught of the armies of darkness.

While our freedoms continue to wane under America's current leadership, RTFC fully expects the Tea Party movement to continue to fade, falter and slide into non-relevance. 

But one hope remains: His name is Jesus. 

Understand that there truly are no political solutions to America's spiritual problems; for this reason we all need to remain on our knees in prayer and cry out to God, for without His Blessings the sinking ship called America will also find itself non-relevant. 

Or worse...
