Sam Adams Says----

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating c0ntest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." Samuel Adams, 1775 (played a major roll in our Republic).

John Adams

Here is something for all Americans to ponder written at the height of our Revolution.
"Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation, to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the pains to preserve it." John Adams, April 1777

The birth of the Savior

In spite of the many "politicaly correct" boobs out there we celebrate the birth of the baby Jesus at this time of the year. It matters not that we do not know the exact time of His birth, this is the time long chosen to celebrate. If it offends you, I say, get a life. You don.t like it? Stay home and play canasta or drink your tea. But shut up about it. You're in a Christian nation. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Freemen or Slaves

These words were written many years ago but deserve our attention. "The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freemen or slaves; whether they are to have property they can call their own. The fate of unborn millions will now depend, ubder God, on the courage and conduct of this army. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die." George Washington, general orders July 2, 1776.

Federalist Papers

James Madison wrote in the Federalist Papers #45 the following: "The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on externally objects, as war, peace, negotiations, and foreign commerce, with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State." The Founding Fathers never intended for Washington to have so much control over her citizens.

Illegal entry

When some one enters your home uninvited with the intent of staying there-------that's trespassing and a crime. Why is it different when an illegal crosses the border into the USA with the intent of living here? Same thing! They are criminals!

Commentary

"The importance of this article will scarcely be doubted by any persons, who have duly reflected upon the subject. The militia is the natural defense of a free country against sudden foreign invasions, domestic insurections, and domestic usurpations of power by rulers. It is against sound policy for a free people to keep up large military establishments and standing armies in time of peace, both for the enormous expenses, with which they are attended, and the facile means, which they affiord to ambitious and unprincipled rulers, to subvert the government, or trample upon the rights of the people. The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the libirties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of the rulers; and will generally, even if these are succesful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them." Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States, 1833.
