How Apropos - Obama Signs ObamaCare On 235th Anniv. Of Henry's "Give Me Liberty, Or Give Me Death"

I find it appropriate, though certainly and unintentionally ironic, that this date was chosen for the signing of the health care reform bill which will, over both the short and long haul, forge chains with which the American People will be bound.

What's the irony you ask? Well, I'm glad you asked.

You see, on this date in 1775 Patrick Henry delivered what is one of the most often quoted lines ever delivered:

"Give me Liberty, or give me Death."

Patrick Henry's speech served to urge the American People to shed the chains of Britain.

The irony continues if you read the entire text of what Patrick Henry had to say while standing in St. John's Church in Richmond, VA on that day. Mr. Henry delivered this speech without notes, without rehearsal, without TelePrompTer.

I hate him.

Also today in history (1933): The Enabling Act was passed by Germany’s Reichstag and signed by President Paul von Hindenburg on March 23, 1933. The enabling act established Hitler’s dictatorship.

I cannot stand this. What can we do that will start conversations daily, in public, waiting for a train, anywhere??? We must talk daily about this. I have been stuck on my computer for 3 days straight just sick about this. Just came back from Target and everyone was just going along to get along. I wanted to scream “Do you people know what happened today!!!!” I wish I had some kind of sign on my forehead or something.

[mlizzy]

He is not going to “change”. It will take divine intervention. Bless you for praying for him any way. You’re a LOT better person than I am.

No, I'm no better; that's *exactly* what I am praying for ... Divine intervention. As in "Please, dear God, make him pass out (or convert!) before he signs that bill. Please."

[Salamander]

LOL!

Thanks...I needed a giggle....:)

And yet you provide another example. That is, all over the forum, posters are uttering Scripture, and understanding, straight from their souls -

Daniel 8:24-27

24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
26 And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.
27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.

Ezekiel 9:3-4 And the glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon he was, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed with linen, which had the writer's inkhorn by his side; 4 And the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.

(Jerusalem, and jerUSAlem.)

Really?

Why are you surprsed?

Matt 24

38For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away.

[Tench_Coxe]

Yes. And 245 years + 1 day after the British Parliament passed the Stamp Act.

[Ezekiel]

I wasn’t at Target. That was a lament by GoCards. No matter though, because we are all targets now. :(

Isaiah 26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

During his Columbia daze, he once muttered “give me Librium or give me meth”. The POS is defiling all of America’s institutions..
