Ronald Reagan – “”We the people” tell the government what to do, it doesn’t tell us…”

“”We the people” tell the government what to do, it doesn’t tell us. “We the people” are the driver, the government is the car. And we decide where it should go, and by what route, and how fast. Almost all the world’s constitutions are documents in which governments tell the people what their privileges are. Our Constitution is a document in which “We the people” tell the government what it is allowed to do. “We the people” are free.”

Mosque At Ground Zero

Sometimes you come across someone that says everything you want to say on a particular subject.  Pat Condell posted just such a piece on Jihad Watch titled, “Pat Condell on Ground Zero mosque: ‘Is it possible to be astonished, but not surprised?’”.  I definitely suggest that you watch the video.

I would like to go on record and say I am against the mosque being built, and I am embarrassed at the comments of President Obama.   I did not vote for him and cannot wait for his removal from office, either by impeachment or on November 6, 2012.

More than 3000 men, women and children died on September 11, 2001 at the hands of Muslim terrorists.  For the Muslim extremist and the Muslim religion, 911 signifies perhaps their greatest achievement against freedom and democracy; the mosque would simply be their marker of their achievement into eternity.  It would also signify another disgraceful turning point for America.

Ronald Reagan – “… the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted…”

“I’m convinced that today the majority of Americans want what those first Americans wanted: A better life for themselves and their children; a minimum of government authority. Very simply, they want to be left alone in peace and safety to take care of the family by earning an honest dollar and putting away some savings. This may not sound too exciting, but there is something magnificent about it. On the farm, on the street corner, in the factory and in the kitchen, millions of us ask nothing more, but certainly nothing less than to live our own lives according to our values — at peace with ourselves, our neighbors and the world.”

“America will never be destroyed from the outside…”

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

For I am dying

For I am dying

Oh, if only I could return to the way that I was
where I was born from tyranny

I was created from one faith
and for the freedom of that faith

Now I am tired,
I have forgotten from where I have come
Nay, I seem to not even care from where I have come

But only if I could return to the days from afar
where freedom was true and faith was in the “I Am”

I remember the days when food was plenty, people were strong, and we walked with the Creator
Who gave us all things and wrapped us in His protection

But I have grown to not need the Creator
because I have decided I am better

For truth is no longer important and I have no need for faith,
I have no need for freedom

I have sold it all for gold and power and desire
I just want what I want as I die a slow death

I was once a Great, as proud as the eagle
I have sold it for the now, and tomorrow is no more

Should I get your pity if I cry out,
You that I have mocked?
But I have forgotten to Whom I should call

Perhaps I’ll just lie down and sleep and wait for nothing
My time may be done
since I gave it all up
