It is time during Commie 0bamas con-artist tour of the remaining Liberal bastions in America for us to demand from our sorry House RINOs that they depose scardy-cat Boehner as Speaker, and install a FIGHTER worthy of our trust in his/her record of defeating Communist Con-Artists such as B. Hussein 0bama. What say all of you?
I say The Fix is in; Boehner, Cantor, McCain, and Rubio are clearly collaborators and Traitors who are Trojan Horse Democrats, Statists, and globalists.
The question is whether there are enough Patriots in High Places who CAN make a difference...those who ARE willing to make such a commitment as the Founders' had: On this page of the Declaration of Independence, before the ink of the signatures, there is a single poignant line that many people often skim past. It reads:
And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.
In fact, of the fifty-six that signed, five were captured and tortured by the British twelve had their homes destroyed seventeen lost their fortunes the sons of two of the men were killed and others were captured and nine lost their lives in the war.
The Founders' Sacrifice

That is just beautiful. And moreso since they meant every word.
Our 'representatives' today don't have the character to even come close. If we end up in a civil war or economic collapse, I think some natural leaders will emerge that have the same backbone and principles of our founding fathers. But they won't come from the political ranks. They'll be just every-day-Joes and their courage will surprise even those that know them well. Maybe even surprise themselves.

The last paragraph of tha article was hard-hitting as well:
? In signing your name, you are giving up your life and risking so much, but in the end, life is what you gain. But just like the founding fathers, the temptation to leave your name off the record in an attempt to save your life will only lead to not just the loss of your life, but the loss of so much more.
Lots of food for thought.
