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

UPDATE 2 ON "IMPEACH THE BASTARD"

In an update to my previously written post, members on both sides of the aisle are pushing back and showing a backbone to the tyrannical Obama administration's violations of the War Powers act by taking them to court over the issue!
Let's hope that a judge defines the War Powers Act as originally intended! Then let's hope Boehner has the balls to vote to cut off funding!
The Scum thinks he is a dictator and know that if he can push through the barriers of the law and his limit on power, he will be unchecked. He is surrounded by "advisers" such as Samantha Powers and Cass Sunstein who advise Obama to use our military as a humanitarian "meals on wheels" and nation building with NO permission from the Congress and NO defined mission!

If he does not yield, he should be immediately IMPEACHED!
