How many claims against the British crown, now apply to our own government? I don't know if I would go as far as PJ O'Rourke. I'm not an anarchist, but hopefully I'm a eyes wide open "republic"-an

"There are twenty-seven specific complaints against the British Crown set forth in the Declaration of Independence. To modern ears they still sound reasonable...in large part, because so many of them can be leveled against the federal government of the United States." [P.J. O'Rourke]

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.

That's my favorite line of the declaration.

Great post!

Yes, the federal government of these United States has overstepped its bounds and much of the offenses contributing to the First and Second American Wars for Independence could be argued again today against our current federal government. I am not an anarchist either, for anarchy is when the people are outside the law, as tyranny is when the government is outside the law. Yet, the Declaration makes clear our lawful duties as patriots.

As that famous naval officer, John Paul Jones, so boldly declared, "I have not yet begun to fight!" We are in a struggle to preserve the original vision of our founders.
