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

Obama, Once Again Missing in Action on Veteran's Day!

Even though I will give Obama a bit of the benefit of the doubt because I am sure the planners of the G20 Summit in Korea did not take Veteran's Day into account when scheduling the meeting, I think it is not by surprise that he was absent from even recognizing our Vets by whipping out his teleprompter and at least make an attempt at some feeble comments on this ever important day!

No, instead he sends out Joe "bite me" Biden to attend Arlington ceremonies. Obama once again shows his contempt for our military and the traditions of honoring these great people that give him the freedom and cover to be a Marxist and Socialist right under the nose of the American people.

A continued national disgrace and embarrassment: Barack Hussein Obama!!
