PATRIOTS are "Counter-Revolutionaries" trying to prevent the government of the United States from overthrowing the Constitution of the United States. - Unknown Author
What brings the PATRIOTS out of the woodwork?
When the constitutional process, the system of checks and balances set up by the Founders, has not just been thrown out of kilter, it has been thrown out the window. These socialist maneuvers are what attracts PATRIOTS to the streets of America.
The CONSTITUTION has been thrown farther off track since 9/11! Of course this should not be mentioned in political circles, especially within earshot of your Congressman or local reporter.
I think if Congress and the press had their way the Constitution would be buried in the Arlington National Cemetery along with all those who died defending it.
