We the people built America!! We settled it, we hacked it out of the wilderness. We fought for it, we defended it, we died for it. We built our homes, our farms, our factories, our businesses, our schools, our churches, our towns. We raised and educated our children to continue building it.

And as anyone who graduated from the eighth grade before the government propagandists took over knows, we the people built the government:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

And we the people granted the government certain LIMITED powers reserving all others to the states and to ourselves:

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

You, our elected representatives and appointed lackeys, are NOT our RULERS. You are our SERVANTS!! Never forget that!!

The government did NOT build America. If anything, it has stood in the way nearly every step of the way!! And now the government has openly stated that its goal is to destroy the constitution, destroy freedom and destroy the free economy altogether.

Free Republic is here to continue fighting for independence and freedom and against the unconstitutional encroachment of ever expanding socialist government. Government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed. We do not consent to godless liberal/progressive socialist government!!

We believe in the founding principles with all our hearts and mean to defend them to our dying breath:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Our God granted us life and liberty along with all of our other unalienable rights. We place our faith with God, not government. With God all things are possible.

If you enjoy reading and participating on FR, if you think it's a worthwhile endeavor and would like to help us keep it going, please click the link above and donate via secure server. Make it a monthly if you can.

Or mail checks to Free Republic, LLC - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794.

Monthly challenge:

We currently have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an additional $10 for each new monthly donor. Help end FReepathons. Sign up to be a monthly donor today!!

Free Republic is funded solely by contributions made by liberty loving people who enjoy and use it. We are beholden to no political party, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers. We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the name of Liberty.

Thank you all very much!!

Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.

We are the resistance!!

Prayers up for our Republic!!

God bless.

Thank you very much, but that particular punctuation is not mine. It’s been posted many times. It is the truth, though. Obama is just the current temporary resident. A very temporary and unfortunate mistake of history that will soon be rectified by we the people.

To add to the mix, We got us a ‘Flex Alert’ in California for the next few days as a heat wave moves in..

Here’s hoping the battery backup works down on the ol’ server farm.. This area is Block 1 and top of the list if they roll black-outs out on the grid.. not good to mess with all that Silicon Valley network infrastructure like that..

If we had built more nukes instead of block ‘em,, we’d have plenty of reserve energy.

As it is, desert tortoises are scurrying around in the deserts trying not to get run over by global elite solar panel farmers and a long-fin smelt is considered more valuable than a central valley farmers produce.

Ya gotta love enviroNuts.. cuz it ain’t legal to toss ‘em in the ocean.

/ramble off

off to stimulate the local economy.. (not to be confused with a beer run)

GiDDYUP!

Don’t laugh. Many profitable businesses got their start as the result of a beer run. And many successful inventions started as a sketch on the back of a bar napkin.

Obama’s “You didn’t build that!” is the 2012 analog of the philosophy Hillary Clinton espoused in her book “It Takes A Village.”

Both express the democrats’ faith and belief in the collective as compared to the traditional American values of family, self-reliance, and independence.
