Quote of the Day
Col. Bob Pappas (USMC, ret.)
"When Government chooses to enact law through devious means, such as the 'Stimulus Bill' that not one Representative or Senator read but voted for, the time is nigh for patriotic Americans to act upon the words:
'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 to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government.…'
The ongoing struggle for the soul of America is between traditional values and secularists; between free markets and government control; between those who have abused America’s economic freedoms for selfish gain and ordinary citizens who invest the fruits of their labor to purchase a slice of the economic pie; it is a struggle between errant politicians’ lust for control and people whose aspirations are to achieve their dreams; between tyranny and freedom; between good and evil.
Thomas Jefferson wrote, 'The government that governs least governs best,' and John Adams dying words, 'Independence now, Independence forever' gives real meaning to President Ford’s immortal words, 'a government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.'
God bless and protect the United States of America!
