Here is the speech of William Wallace from “Braveheart”:

“I am William Wallace. And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny! You have come to fight as free men. And free man you are! What will you do without freedom? Will you fight?”

“Two thousand against ten?” – the veteran shouted. “No! We will run – and live!”

“Yes!” Wallace shouted back. “Fight and you may die. Run and you will live at least awhile. And dying in your bed many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one cahnce, to come back here as young men and tell our enemies that they may take our lives but they will never take our freedom!”

What a great movie that was. I hope to God the RINOs don’t surrender us. Let the Fedzilla stay closed all year as far as I’m concerned.

BTW...Check this out - One of the most awesome articles I ever read about all this by Ted Nugent:

KEEP THE FEDZILLA BEAST SHUT DOWN!

By Ted Nugent

I hear you, Mr. President, and I know exactly what it is that I am hearing. I hear the deceit and lies of the Chicago ACORN community disorganizing scam artist from hell, feeding the low-information voters more pap and anti-American propaganda in your feeble and disingenuous attempt to bribe more votes for the declaration of dependency society. Fundamental transformation indeed.

You are so cocksure of the ignorance of your constituency that you dare to brag that the federal government is America’s largest employer. That is nothing to be proud of and in fact contrary to the Founding Fathers’ vision of this experiment in self-government where we the people were supposed to be the ones in charge, not a runaway power-abusing, bloated, fraudulent monster like the slobbering, gluttonous Fedzilla beast of the New Deal and not so Great Society scams.

The 1970s Chrylser automobiles that wouldn’t run couldn’t hold a candle to the engineered obsolescence of Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, the laughable U.S. post office, the jackboot indecency of the EPA, the ESA, OSHA, USFW, USDA, NPS, USFS, NEA, FDA, BLM and the sundry Fedizillacrat alphabet-soup agencies blow-torching untold Americans’ hard-earned tax dollars without a hint of accountability or oversight by their bosses: we the people.

Who the hell came up with the government providing school lunches, food stamps, cellphones, rent, fuel, wars on drugs, wars on poverty, mismanaging forests, running parks, collecting taxes based on political affiliation, shutting down guitar companies and flooring companies based on the Lacey Act scam?

Go ahead, do us all a huge favor, and put the brakes on the America that never should have been. Of course Fedzilla employs more people than any company on earth, because the beast has hired thousands of inept, careless souls to do the job of a dozen truly capable, accountable individuals.

Let private entrepreneurs and private enterprise run everything. I know you haven’t the faintest idea what I’m talking about, but in the real, competitive world of professional business, we must actually live within our means and show a bottom-line profit, or the business goes bust. Look it up. It’s called capitalism, and it is the only economic system in the history of the world that rewards excellence, effort, intelligence and hard work, instead of your Mao Zedong insanity of punishing the producers and rewarding the bloodsuckers.

I smell fundamental change all right, and it stinks to high heaven.

Have you ever joined children in an American school lunchroom? I have, and I’ll tell you what everybody who has has witnessed – I watch the $6 billion school lunch program to “feed the starving children” go straight into the dumpster and right out to the local landfill. The food is not eaten, the milk is not opened, most of it is a big, fat, ugly waste accomplishing nothing more than further bloat, fraud and feelgood political correctness gone mad.

Experience more of Ted Nugent’s no-holds-barred passion and patriotism in his books and WND’s “Ted Nugent for President!” bumper sticker

Go ahead, shut down the embarrassing government that forces the boondoggle “you don’t need to read this, you need to sign it to find out what’s in it” so-called affordable health-care scam, while the king and all his cronies get to ignore the law of the land. You have got to be kidding me. In fact, you have got to be scamming me.

Go ahead and shut down the runaway Fedzilla freight train that dares give Susan Rice a promotion and a raise for lying through her teeth to the American public about the engineered Benghazi debacle.

Go ahead and shut down the government that actually believes Hillary Clinton qualifies to lead our country after failing miserably to do the right thing in Benghazi.

Go ahead and shut down the big lying machinery that declares the Fort Hood terrorist attack as a workplace violence episode.

Go ahead and shut down the joke that dares put the IRS jackboots in charge of enforcing a law they don’t have to adhere to.

Go ahead and shut down the joke of a government that ignores the needs of its military heroes.

Go ahead and end the train wreck that is the most abusive, fraudulent food-stamp and welfare scam in the history of mankind.

Go ahead and shut down a government that rewards Americans who have quit looking for work and has a list of jobs they’re not willing to do.

Go ahead and shut down a government that ignores the will of the people by constantly infringing on our right to keep and bear arms.

Shut down the scam where our employees can give themselves a raise without consulting with us.

Other than securing our borders and protecting American interests and enforcing our “equal justice under the law” laws, the rest of the government should be shut down for good. And oh, what good it would be.

How about some fundamental transformation back to the real America?

I love that statement but get the feeling that the author of the script of Braveheart might have borrowed generously from Sheakespeare's Henry V.

BRAVEHEART was indeed a great movie. I wish Gibson would make more like that. There are PLENTY of old roles for old/ole Mel.

and when you consider that 85% of the massive federal beast is still running, it’s hardly a shutdown.

Borrowing from Shakespeare: he couldn't borrow from anyone better. There are good, better and best examples of plagarism. This is a GOOD'UN

Except the part where they pretended that Wallace was the natural father of Edward III, it was a great movie.

Considering Shakespeare’s penchant for wholesale “borrowing,” Willie wouldn’t have much ground for complaint.

As said, hard to beat Henry V.

The leadership test for Boehmer is if he can get the so called moderate Republicans in the House to shut up and stop putting pressure on him to allow a vote on the bill the Democrats want.If they persist, especially Peter King, there ought to be a price to pay for their disloyalty.
