Thomas Jefferson

"We must make our choice between economy and liberty or confusion and servitude...If we run into such debts, we must be taxed in our meat and drink, in our necessities and comforts, in our labor and in our amusements...if we can prevent the government from wasting the labor of the people, under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy."--Thomas Jefferson


"America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. "
--John Quincy Adams
US diplomat & politician (1767 - 1848)

“Since the general civilization of mankind, I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpation”
-James Madison at the Virginia Ratification Debates
"With respect to the words "general welfare," I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators."

- James Madison's Letter to James Robertson, April 20, 1831

Thoughts on Ted Kennedy and the Massive Tea Party!

Well it has been a few weeks since the death of Ted Kennedy. And as expected the main stream media has used his death in twisted, typical fashion to promote and push Obama Care as a “tribute” to him. In the tradition of the Paul Wellstone memorial, Democrats and pro-socialized medicine people are using his death as another reason to pass these bills saying we need to “do it for Teddy.” They even used a child at his funeral to press this agenda because of course you can’t criticize a child!

We also have had a popular liberal blogger recently say that maybe the death of Mary Jo Kopechne was “worth it” as a substitute for Kennedy dying in that car accident so that he could continue his “life’s worth” in healthcare “reform”.

By the way, my complaint is that the Kennedys (and all liberals past and present) have practiced their social experimentation and collective utopia dreams on the rest of us using the power of government and the tax code against our will in many cases. The policies of Kennedy have more than likely cost every working American thousands of dollars in extra taxes and bureaucracy over the years, held back the very people he claimed to want to help into generations of government dependency that really doesn’t help the person but secures power and control in Washington, cost millions of children to never be born through his 100% support of the abortion industry (which is ironic considering he was a “devote” Catholic), and his unwavering support for illegal immigration amnesty. Remember, liberals are only generous with other people’s money.

In case you were watching main stream media this weekend, there was a HUGE Tea Party in Washington Saturday where an estimated 1-2 MILLION http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sjvc6baor8&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ewilkowmajority%2Ecom%2F&feature=player_embedded
peaceful great American protestors showed up for the latest (and rapidly growing!) to protest and express their fear and disdain for the government’s rapid slide into socialism and bankruptcy that Obama and many Washington politicians (some on both sides of the aisle) are taking us all into. Main stream media of course GREATLY downplayed the numbers of people present saying it was only in the “tens of thousands” when video evidence and real ground reports clearly proves otherwise!

Main stream media also looks at anyone who protests the liberal, Marxist policies of Obama as racists, “birthers”, “tea baggers”, temper tantrum throwing (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/09/13/ftn/main5307015.shtml)
, right wing extremists and other degrading terms instead of honest, hard working liberty loving Americans that they really are. They even went so far on CNN implying that the “dark undercurrent” of the protestors could be dangerous to Obama!

And the left howled about a few signs at the protest saying “Bury Obama Care with Kennedy.” I completely agree with this sentiment. But don’t you just love the double standard of these people?
Here are just a few:
Ted Kennedy is directly responsible for the death of Kopechne and gets away with it.
Nancy Pelosi insults the CIA and calls Americans opposing Obama Care “Nazis”,
Jack Murtha (D-PA) called the Marines involved in the Haditha incident in Iraq cold blooded murderers before he knew the facts (all have been cleared since then)
Harry Reid called Bush a “loser” and “liar” many times and the “Worst President” in history.
Leftwing extremists made movies on how to assassinate George W. Bush.
And I could go on and on and on…

Liberals and the elite press will NEVER understand the ground swell that is building right under their feet. This swell will eventually blow up and they will be thrown into the ash bin of history as Conservatism ascends because the public is getting a first hand history lesson of what socialism really is! And they don't like it...
