Freedom tastes good on crackers.

Freedom is not a frivolous luxury, it is what we need to live our lives, create wealth and, most important of all, defend our security.

Freedoms can be regained, destruction and annihilation cannot.

Backwards. We can always rebuild our buildings. Terrorists can never kill so many of us that we cannot replace our population. But once enough freedom is lost, it can be nearly impossible to get it back. A tyrant can not loosen his grip without losing his life.

This country is the richest country in the world largely because, for years, we were the most free. Freedom creates wealth and wealth creates security.

Whenever you feel the urge to give the Federal government more power, always ask yourself this question: "Do I want President Hillary to have this authority?"

You missed my point. Freedom without a country to practice it in, is useless. ie:freedom taste good on a cracker.

Freedoms can be regained, destruction and annihilation cannot.

There will be no tyrant in the United States. I have more faith in our citizens to believe that for a second. How do you suggest that we rebuild buildings should the worse scenario happen? Our economy will be destroyed. No money.

This country is the richest country in the world largely because, for years, we were the most free. Freedom creates wealth and wealth creates security.

How long would we stay rich? Let's say for the sake of argument that New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, and any large city was wiped out. Do you honestly think that people would be scrambling to rebuild cities or scrambling to feed people? With our open borders anything is possible.

If al queda is calling 555-2355, I want to know who they are talking too, that could prevent that scenario from ever coming to fruition.
