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 everyone who graduated from the eighth grade before the government propaganda artists 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.
The government did NOT build America. We the people built it. If anything, the government 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 "flawed" constitution, destroy freedom and destroy the free economy altogether by fundamentally transforming America from a free country to a socialist state.
You, our elected representatives and appointed lackeys, are NOT our RULERS. You are our SERVANTS!! Never forget that!!
Mr. pResident, you are just the current temporary occupant. An unfortunate mistake of history that will soon be rectified by we the people.
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.
God granted us life and liberty along with all of our other unalienable rights. We place our faith in God, not government. With God all things are possible.

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.
Until I figure out how to increase the monthly payment, I will throw another $20 into this cycle.
"Waiting for Forever" with Rachel Bilson, Tom Sturridge, Richard Jenkins, Blythe Danner, Matthew Davis, Scott Mechlowicz, Jaime King, Nikki Blonsky, Nelson Franklin
A young man, "Will," whose parents died when he was 10 and completely in puppy love with his best friend, "Emma," gets sent to live in another state with relatives. When he grows up, he becomes a street busker so he can travel to wherever Emma lives, from Oregon to northern California to southern California. He never has the courage to speak to her until she returns home to Pennsylvania because of her ailing father and her failed reality show. It was all right, and we gave it ★★★
"Cat Run" with Paz Vega, Janet McTeer, Alphonso McAuley, Scott Mechlowicz, Christopher McDonald, Karel Roden, D.L. Hughley, Tony Curran, Michelle Lombardo
NOT family fare - 'way too much nudity, the Full Monty both male and female, plus grisly hit-man torture scenes. A prostitute takes the hard drive containing footage of a rich businessman's massacre of all his party guests (half prostitutes) because an American congressman accidentally killed one of the girls (also on the drive). The EBGs (evil bad guys) spend the movie trying to kill her while two of her recent acquaintances work even harder to save her and her infant son. It was annoying during the first half, but it redeemed itself in the balance of the show. Again, NO CHILDREN! For non-squeamish adults, it was ★★★★
As Hubby occasionally has to say to me, "Shut up kid! It's only a movie."
And if you know where that line came from, you get another ★
What year is Cat Run?
LOLOLOL!
Goodnight Red.
