#64 - That has basically been my position on this matter all along. All the talking in the world is going to get nowhere now that is abundantly clear. It will take ACTION unfortunately. It’s what it took eventually in Europe, it’s what it took in 1776. The Corruption is deep and wide and I dare say it even involves some “outside of the country” forces as well. Watch for the United Nothings to become a very powerful vehicle being used by Mr. Obama or whoever the hell he is. Treaty after treaty after treaty. Time to stop all the pontificating - organize and mobilize. The consequences of not doing it are pretty devestating. CO
IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America
When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Far be it for me to alter these words in any way except to say that the day is today, the States are fifty, and the time is now. These words stand as a testament to our American Spirit. They mean just as much today as they did when they were written.
