God Bless America!

In 1776 our founding father's decided to create a Republic and play a game called freedom. The contest's rules were based on a foundation of Judeo-Christian principles. The playing field was covered with blood sweat and tears. Freedom did not come without a price, you had to ante up to play in this match. The buy in was high, but the reward for winning was priceless. Our ancestors were willing to pay any fee to shed tyranny and live free, many of them paid the ultimate price. The bequeathed us this game called freedom and asked that we protect it and it's principles with our lives if necessary, as they had.

The 4th is a celebration of that freedom. Parades, fireworks, and picnics will consume our day. Let not the spirit this country was founded on be overshadowed by the festivities. We still have a duty to maintain the blessings passed down to us. Our brave young men and women serve on foreign soil to protect our borders. Do our representatives in Washington give us the same commitment?

Discussions have revealed Americans feel this 4th of July has a special meaning. Reflecting, they expressed a concern, one I was able to sympathize with. Opinion has drifted toward feeling that our freedom is being threatened. It's not just the state of unrest in the world, the looming childlike behavior of tantrum throwing nuclear countries. This discomfort is felt from within. Leadership no longer serves the people. They have embarked on self serving agendas betraying the power gifted to them by the citizens. We are being dictated to, told what is best for us!

There has not been this type of unrest in America for a long time. Citizens are rising up enmass to protest this tyranny. Not since the 1700s have tea parties been part of our culture. There is an uncomfortable feeling surging in the bowels of America. Our freedom is being threatened by domestic terrorists in Washington with taxes and entitlement programs. I dare say treason is being committed on the founding principles of our nation. We are not now or ever been a socialist nation.

Mr. President, members of Congress, stop this madness. We love our freedom and will not trade it for security. The price has been paid by our forefathers, respect the sacrifice they made for us.

Be patriotic this weekend and honor that sacrifice! Drive safe!

God Bless
Capt. Bill

  1. Over 200 years ago George Washington warned us about this soft TYRANNY and what would happen.
    Well we're in one now a soft TYRANNY.
    Read THE CONSTITUTION of the UNITED STATES.
    Read THE 5000 YEAR LEAP.
    Read LIBERTY AND TYRANNY A CONSERVATIVE MANIFESTO.
    You will wake up real fast after reading these books.
    Oh yeah you'll also be mad that you didn't see it coming by saying in your comfort zone.
    Like I said before the vote for your freedom is coming up, will you stay in your comfort zone aka sleeping or will you have your voice heard aka wake up.

    Thank you for you time.
