Step out of your comfort zone once more each week and create over 50 additional opportunities for excitement, challenge and possibility each year. This is what life's about. -- Sam Parker



From: "The Patriot Post"

"We should never despair, our Situation before has been unpromising and has changed for the better, so I trust, it will again. If new difficulties arise, we must only put forth new Exertions and proportion our Efforts to the exigency of the times." -- George Washington

"Most change in America doesn't come from politicians. It comes from people inventing things and creating. The telephone, the telegraph, the computer, all those things didn't come from government. Our world is going to get better and better, as long as we keep the politicians from screwing it up." -- David Boaz

"Liberty must at all hazards be supported. We have a right to it, derived from our Maker. But if we had not, our fathers have earned and bought it for us, at the expense of their ease, their estates, their pleasure, and their blood." -- John Adams

"Honor, justice, and humanity, forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us. We cannot endure the infamy and guilt of resigning succeeding generations to that wretchedness which inevitably awaits them if we basely entail hereditary bondage on them." -- Thomas Jefferson

"Both political parties in America do things that are dumb and wrong, but in the case of the Democrats it is both extreme and shameless... Nothing is too monumental, nothing is too important, nothing is too serious not to become a cause political for the Democrats... I changed parties over policy differences with the party of my birth. But, starting with President Clinton's scandals and the willingness of Democrats to defend them, I have become increasingly worried about the soul and ethics of the Democratic Party. I will continue to urge the Democratic Party to denounce and renounce its reproaches and its reproachable tactics. Abuse of law, cynicism, a win-at-any-cost approach, and lying are not healthy for a democratic politics, or a democratic polity. We are waiting to see some level of shame from the current Democratic Party because today it is, above all, shameless." -- William J. Bennett

"To be prepared for war, is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace." -- George Washington



From: "The Web"

"'E Pluribus Unum' is no longer our national motto. These three words are: 'Do For Me.' As in: What will the government do for me?" -- Michelle Malkin

"You cannot be effective if those who work for you are not. So building their effectiveness ought to be a priority." -- Richard N. Haass

"All men who have turned out worth anything have had the chief hand in their own education." -- Sir Walter Scott

The Death of the American Ideal
Posted on 11/05/2008 1:50:08 PM PST by Mikey76

On November fourth, the Year of our Lord two thousand and eight, the majority of the American electorate consciously chose to reject the vision of the founders for a constitutionally limited government whose sole responsibility was the protection of the rights we had been endowed with by our creator. Instead, we the people elected a man and a party that believes what you earn does not belong to you and if you think it does, you are selfish and deluded. We chose leaders who openly advocate using the power of the government to restrict the opposition’s right to free speech and everyone’s right to keep and bear arms. The majority of the people did not care that the winning party engaged in electoral practices like phony registrations, cheating and intimidation, activities accepted in third world dictatorships, not in the supposedly civilized West. To the majority of Americans, it did not matter that their president elect absorbed the rantings of an anti-American hate monger for twenty years, launched his political career in the home of a domestic terrorist or heaped praise on a man who thought it a good idea to kill as many Jews as possible. We have chosen a man who voted for infanticide and has been endorsed by terroists and thugs. We did not care that our president elect promised to bankrupt an American industry and cause our own electricity bills to skyrocket. We have chosen a president who believes unabashedly in the Marxist formula of the redistribution of wealth and has promised to use the legislature and the courts to accomplish that goal. We have empowered a party that thinks it a good idea to emasculate the military at a time when our enemies are seeking to destroy us. We have elected a man who believes our foundational document is fatally flawed because its primary focus is on prohibiting the government from doing things to us instead of empowering the government to do things to and for us. In this election the majority of the American people consciously choose a man and a party who reject the principles of the founders of our great country and openly embrace European socialism. We the people have put the final nails in the coffin of American exceptionalism. We have formally rejected liberty and responsibility and have chosen the warm embrace of the nanny state. Will president Barack Hussain Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid be able to accomplish all they desire? I hope not. But the majority of the people in our great country believe they should and respect for the limiting power of our founding documents is gone. Today the majority are celebrating at the funeral of the American ideal. God help us all.
