The shot heard round the world
"By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled;
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard 'round the world."
Concord Hymn Ralph Waldo Emerson
The date was April 19, 1775. The battle was at the Old North Bridge in Concord, Massachusetts
American patriots threw off the shackles of their masters in Britain and sought to teach the Redcoats a lesson about true liberty and freedom! Under the seeking of Divine Providence, they gave their lives , their fortunes, and their sacred honor as would later be written in our Declaration of Independence.
The date was January 19, 2010. The battle was for the U.S. Senate. The patriots of Massachusetts stood up once again to throw off the shackles of tyrants. This time, the tyranny was coming at them from two directions. The Marxist Redcoats in Washington, D.C. have been stealing their hard earned money for generations. The banking Trench coats turned our once great nation into a debtors prison controlling the entire economic policy of our land.
The Redcoats have built a Marxist utopia built on the concept of class warfare and a reliance on the Federal government for survival. This is especially true in the black community of AMERICANS. Some of the greatest heroes of the First American Revolution happened to be black. They were Patriots, fighting for their nation.
The Trench coats control the economic marketplace. They have the capability and power to cause up markets and down markets. They steal interest on loans from people, when those very loans are created with a computer keystroke. What right do they have to earn our interest off of created money?
We are AMERICANS! Are there any Patriots left amongst us?
If so, we now have before us the Second Battle of the Second American Revolution!
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke was supposed to be reconfirmed to his chairmanship by the US Senate today. They postponed this vote until next week, probably because they now might not have enough votes for confirmation.
Rise up Patriots! Call your US Senators and DEMAND that they vote against the reconfirmation of Ben Bernanke as Fed Chairman. This will send a shot across the bow of the bankers. They need to know that we AMERICAN Patriots mean business!
The banking Trench coats have been throwing an economic fit since last Tuesday. Its time to seek their removal from our nations shores.
Remind your US Senator Redcoat that we AMERICAN Patriots have just began this Second American Revolution. Do they REALLY want to stand in our way?
We diminish our founders by comparing their sacrifices to people...voting.
I get that we need the hyperbole to help fire up folks and get their patriotic juices flowing. The political earthquake is a huge deal and a huge realignment of the politics in this country. I give no arguement against these points.
But let us not forget - ever - that our founders risked their lives to secure liberty for themselves and their posterity (us). Too many patriots died in battle never able to exercise the rights that they were fighting for. Nobody died in Mass. on Tuesday. It doesn’t mean that Tuesday was anything less than what it was. My point is that the revolution was so much more.
Good writing, keep it up!
This is not the change I was talking about!
