CHAPTER FIVE
Tom Thomson felt that
he had a rendezvous with destiny so he wrote a speech that could also be used
as a letter addressed to all the candidates for the U. S. House and Senate:
Candidates, Citizens,
Patriots, lend me your ears; we need to impeach Barack Hussein Obama for
failure to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Impeachment is the “constitutional remedy” for a lawless, dictorial president
who has violated the Constitution more times than any other president in our
long history. We are at a crossroads because our leaders lack the moral courage
to stop spending and giving away benefits we can’t afford. They are addicted to
buying votes so that they can continue to be elected. Two thousand years ago
Plutarch warned that, “The real destroyer of the liberties of people is he who
spreads among them bounties, donations and benefits.” Regardless of their
humanitarian motives, those who would sacrifice freedom for benefits have
embarked on a downward path to totalitarianism.
Our natural,
unalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation of government, and
freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is
at this moment. Please resist the temptation to get a temporary government
handout in exchange for a future loss of your freedom. I want to preserve for
our children the last best hope of man on earth and that is a free United
States of America! God Bless America!
Sincerely Yours,
The Average American,
Tom Thomson

Chapter four
Tom Thomson pointed his cigar at John Locke and
said, “I have a question for you.”
John said, “Go ahead and ask your question.”
Tom said, “Why do you guys seem to have so much
confidence in my ability to stop this Nation’s slide into Socialism and Tyranny.
John said, “Because we know it’s in your blood and
your genes to fight for Liberty! Let me tell you about your great, great, great
Grandfather. Charles Thomson was a Patriot leader in Philadelphia during the
Revolution and the Secretary of the Continental Congress Throughout its
existence. He was a leader in the revolutionary crises of the early 1770s. He
served as the secretary of the Continental Congress through its entirety. John
Adams called Charles Thomson the life of
the cause of liberty.
Tom said, “Okay, I have a good ancestor but what do
you want me to do?
John said, “We want you to motivate some candidates
for the Congress in 2014, who are Pro Impeachment of the President and Vice
President. Impeachment is America’s last hope of blocking the dictorial reign
of the imposter and usurper in the white house,’ , Barack Hussein Obama.
and the window is closing fast, , The longer we wait, the more the man will continue to dismantle
our constitutional republic, our national security, our electoral
system, our economic
strength, our rights and liberties — and we may be left to see the foolishness
of our inaction from the hindsight of harsh reality.. . In
view of the fact Congress has refused to initiate impeachment against Mr. Obama
— despite his many impeachable offenses — the obvious solution is to elect
new and better representatives of the people. "The American
people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of 'liberalism
and the Democratic party,' they will adopt every fragment of the socialist
program because of free benefits such as
health insurance until one day America
will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.

CHAPTER THREE
Epicurus said, “Splendid!
Cigars and beer with friends creates harmony and peace. Even average men become
thinkers and philosophers with the aid of a good cigar. Please sit down and
join us. Tom, we are here to help you and your fellow Americans keep your
freedom.”
Aristotle said, “John
Locke helped your founders to write and adopt a perfect Constitution which
protects your freedom but it doesn't matter what rights you have under the
Constitution if the government can punish you for exercising those rights. And
it does not matter what limits the Constitution puts on government officials’
power, if they can exceed those limits without any adverse consequences."
Cicero said, “In other
words, the constitution cannot protect you, if you don’t protect the
Constitution with your votes against anyone who violates it! Your President
Obama has violated the Constitution more times than any other President in the
history of your nation! And he will continue to erode your freedom until the Constitution
is merely some quaint words from the past that people once took seriously. He
has broken his oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the
United States over and over again by using Executive Privilege, Orders, Illegal
Appointments, and actions outside the Constitutional powers given him.”
John Locke said, “With
your help, Tom, we will put a stop to the tactics of this administration, which
have the morals of thugs and the agenda of totalitarians.”
Tom Thomson stood up
and enthusiastically proposed a toast to, “ANCIENT WISDOM AND TIMELESS TRUTHS!”

THE AVERAGE AMERICAN MAN
CHAPTER TWO
John locke and his committee of immortal
philosophers were gathered around a back table at Churchill’s Cigar Bar. As they
waited for Tom Thomson, they were engaged in a philosophical conversation.
John said, "Tyranny is the exercise of power beyond right, which nobody can
have a right to".
“Yes”,
said Socrates, “it appears that Americans are living an unexamined life and do
not realize that their Government is gradually taking away their freedom.”
Rene
Descartes said, “You must think in order to continue to be free.”
Noam
Chomsky said, “In this possibly terminal phase of human existence, democracy
and freedom are more than just ideals to be valued—they may be essential to
survival.”
Somerset Maugham said, “If a nation values
anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is
that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too. (Watch
out for Obama’s ‘free stuff’!’)
G. W. F. Hegel said, “The owl of Minerva
spreads its wings only with the falling of the dusk.”
William of Ockham asked, “What the hell does
that mean? Keep it simple, stupid, or I will cut you with my razor.”
Heraclitus said, “One cannot step twice in
the same river because reality is constantly changing.”
Albert Camus said, “You gotta embrace life’s
absurdity and keep pushing the rock up the hill.”
After that deep statement, Tom Thomson
joined them and said, “Hi, I’m the Average American Man. I would like to buy a
cigar and a beer for everyone.”
