  • Will This Be America’s Last Independence Day?

    How many of you out there today are asking the same question? Will today be America’s last Independence Day? After three and a half years of Barack Obama the economy is in ruins. The regulations more oppressive. The government is more intrusive. And the future looks bleak. Think of this – Just three and a half years ago– ** In President Bush’s last year in office, 2008, the deficit reached $459 billion. Today, for the third year in a row, the US deficit is over a trillion dollars (and Obama still says it’s Bush’s fault). This is after he promised...

    The unanimous Declaration of the Thirteen Post-Colonial, Multi-Racial Societes of North America When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to strengthen the political bands which have connected them with the Global Community, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the cooperative and deferential station which a careful review of the relevant peer reviewed literature suggests is most appropriate for long term win-win outcomes, a decent and rigorously equal respect to the opinions of woman- and man- and transkind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the ever deeper...
  • Happy Fourth of July to the Treason Party (LAUGH ALERT)

    Chicago Sun-times ^ | Jul 4, 2012 02:20AM | JUNIOR MARXIST NEIL STEINBERG nsteinberg@suntimes.com
    What history we recall on the Fourth of July typically involves stirring words of freedom, and rightly so. But why stop there? After all, not every colonist in 1776 was a patriot, and at this particularly fractured political moment, we might do well to remember that, according to contemporary accounts, one third of Americans wanted revolution, one third were loyal to the crown and one third could go either way. Loyalists did more than talk; they formed Tory regiments and fought alongside the British, against their fellow Americans. Even those who did support breaking from Britain could be surprisingly lax...
  • Lamenting The Lost Legacy Of Independence Day

    Can anyone honestly argue that our nation still honors the values, or practices the principles, for which our Founders fought? Today, most Americans have been trained to be embarrassed by the "extremist" individualist ethos that made the protection of liberty the primary purpose of government. They have been taught to apologize for the shortcomings of the "rich white men" who led the revolution. A majority of Americans now subscribe to an expansive view of government as both great provider and beneficent leveler. Its primary purpose is to redress unequal or unhappy outcomes, regardless of their source, through wealth redistribution on...
  • Mark Steyn : Dependence Day (the British are losing their civilizational will to live)

    The New Criterion ^ | 01/19/2011 | Mark Steyn
    If I am pessimistic about the future of liberty, it is because I am pessimistic about the strength of the English-speaking nations, which have, in profound ways, surrendered to forces at odds with their inheritance. “Declinism” is in the air, but some of us apocalyptic types are way beyond that. The United States is facing nothing so amiable and genteel as Continental-style “decline,” but something more like sliding off a cliff. In the days when I used to write for Fleet Street, a lot of readers and several of my editors accused me of being anti-British. I’m not. I’m extremely...

    Good turnout for Clearwater Florida Tea Party at the Perkins Restaurant corner of US19 and Gulf-to-Bay. Estimate at 300+ (unofficial) and good spirits for all participants on a hot day. I know that there are/were other Tea Parties in the Tampa Bay area so 300+ is probably a good turnout. Lots of horn honking and thumbs-up signs.
  • The End of Independence Day?

    Pajamas Media ^ | July 4 | Mary Grabar
    We are seeing even those small marks of personal pride and independence — the freedom to rev up the engine on a Friday night — taken away. The muscle cars, under the diktat of the president and head of General Motors, are simply being eliminated and replaced by Yugo-style cars. The common retort to my lament is that such a boost to the male ego is silly in light of global warming and the greater good. What I find alarming, though, is that today’s generation submits to such authority. And what about those from the upper-middle classes who had dreams...
