THOMAS PAINE DECEMBER 23RD 1776

"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but "to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER" and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God."
 
REST WOUNDED WARRIORS, BUT THE CRY FOR VICTORY WILL NOT STOP. WE MAY HAVE LOST THIS BATTLE BUT THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM AND AMERICA MUST NEVER STOP. IF WE ACCEPT THIS BLOW WE WILL BE GIVING IN AND SHALL BE HANDING OVER TO THEM THE FUTURE OF OUR COUNTRY. WE CANNOT, WE MUST NOT ACCEPT THIS. I LOOK AT THOSE WHO FOUGHT BEFORE US, I CAN SEE THEIR STRUGGLES, I SEE THE SACRIFIC, I FEEL THEIR SPIRIT AND MY HEART TELLS ME THAT WE MUST FIGHT ON. THE PASSION WILL FLOW AGAIN AND AS GOD AS MY WITNESS I WILL NOT BE SILENT AND ACCEPT THIS PATH.

That is so true Leanne, i posted this on another blog but all need to see it and share it with others:

I do not know if anyone noticed but what the American people are fighting is just not the Progressive Marxists that have taken over the Democratic party, we are also fighting a very deceitful MSM press/MEDIA. That why FOX has grown so much in viewership and so has THE NEW MEDIA. Perhaps you can understand this explanation by Glenn Beck at Cincinnati FreePAC this past September 15th:

He explains it all, and about their blatant lies against Romney, conservative candidates and the their numbers in the polls, he also tells how Americans can unite and return to TRUTH.

Great sites to get truth/facts are:

Boortz.com (Nealz Nuze)

Breitbart.com

Drudgereport.com

FreedomWorks.org

MRC.org

TheRightScoop.com

TenthAmendmentCenter.com

i2i.org (Independence Institute)

Heritage.org

Things are not going to be righted over night or in one election. And also keep in mind that 2014 mid elections are just around the corner. Remember 1994?

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
