The United States of America is a sick nation!

 

We do not draw the moral lessons we might from history. On the contrary, we no longer have the principles, manners and moral virtue to lead the world. Without care a repeat of history may be used to vitiate our minds and to destroy our happiness. History a great volume of which is available for our instruction at the touch of a button, to draw the materials of future wisdom from the past errors and infirmities of mankind is being ignored.

 

The pervasive dissolution of moral principles and manners in our culture will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the Islamic enemy.
 

Without common virtue we appear to be ready to surrender our liberties to either the highest bidder or the most secretive external invader.
 
We have totally forgotten that "God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure if we have removed their only firm basis: a conviction in the minds of men that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever."- Thomas Jefferson
 
Our liberty is as much in danger as our honor and our national character. We should tremble both for ourselves and the future of our children. Dread the operation of money and beware the enemy within our borders.

 

There are many men of corrupt wealth around the world who have loosed this prosecution, for corruption in the name of liberty. The spirit of liberty in action reveals strong principles at work; and this, for a while, is all we can possibly know of it.

 

Edmund Burke[i], the famous British Statesman said in 1791..."Society cannot exist unless a controlling power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere; and the less of it there is within, the more there must be without.  It is ordained in the eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be free."

 

Waves of immigrant and minority people around the world have maintained the ways of their old country with no desire to assimilate into the society into which they have received the support of their lively hood for years. Instead, they want to carve out a new nation or in the case of the United States of America the stated objective is a “nation within our borders”. They want to impose their own laws. Thus the potential for internal conflict along old national allegiances and lines of religious intolerance has reached the boiling point.

 

The wild gas is plainly broke loose around the world: but we ought to suspend our judgment until the first effervescence is a little subsided, till the liquor is cleared, and until we see something deeper than the agitation of a troubled and frothy surface. Liberty is a lot more than an unrestrained free man.

 

“We the People” must be tolerably sure, but before we venture publicly to congratulate men upon a blessing, we must verify that they have really received one. Flattery corrupts both the receiver and the giver; and adulation is not of more service to the people than to kings. We should therefore suspend our congratulations on the new liberty people in the Islamic world have achieved, until we are informed how it combined with government, with public force, with the discipline and obedience of armies, with the collection of an effective and well-distributed oil revenue, with morality and freedom of religion, and with solidity offers up property ownership, with peace and order, complete with civil and social manners. All these (in their way) are good things, too; and, without them, liberty is not a benefit whilst it lasts, and is not likely to continue long.

The effect of liberty to individuals is that they may do what they please: we ought to see what it will please them to do before we risk congratulations, which may be soon turned into complaints. Prudence would dictate this in the case of separate, insulated, private men. But liberty, when men act in bodies, is power. Considerate people, before they declare themselves, will observe the use which is made of power—and particularly of so trying a thing as new power in new persons, of whose principles, tempers, and dispositions they have little or no experience, and in situations where those who appear the most stirring in the scene may possibly not be the real movers... [ii]

 

Feel the force of money; and call upon Congress for justice in this cause for the preservation of our liberty, our virtue and our national character. Every good gift is of God; all power is of God; and He who has given the power, and from whom alone it originates, will never suffer the exercise of it to be practiced upon any less solid foundation than the power itself. Congressional power did not arise from our conventions (normal way of doing things) or compacts (agreements); on the contrary, it gives to our conventions and compacts all the force and sanction they can have.

 

Power does not arise from vain institutions. Dominion of man over man is the effect of the Divine disposition, it is bound by the eternal laws of Him that give it, with which no human authority can dispense—neither he that exercises it, nor even those who are subject to it; and if they, being Congress, were mad enough to make an express compact that should release them from their duty to declare war assigning it to the President, and should declare their lives, liberties, and properties dependent upon, not rules and laws, but his mere capricious will, that covenant would be void where it contradicts the Constitution and the will of “We the People”. The acceptor of this power has not his authority increased, but he has his crime doubled. Therefore can it be imagined, if this be true, that He will suffer this great gift of government, the great, the best, that was ever given by God to mankind, to be the plaything and the sport of the feeble will of a man, who, by a blasphemous, absurd, and petulant usurpation, would place his own feeble, contemptible, ridiculous will in the place of the Divine wisdom and justice?

 

But whatever necessity might hide or excuse or palliate Congress’s surrendering its war powers to the President has made our nation week and vulnerable.

 

A wise nation, when it has once made a revolution upon its own principles and for its own ends, rests there. The first step to empire is revolution, by which power is conferred; the next is good laws, good order, and good institutions, to give that power stability.

 

Those same institutions should not be changed lightly. Congress needs to step up to the plate and reclaim its authority. Frailties within the fabric of the nation must be recognized as its primary vulnerability to attack. The same Islamic enemies of the American ideal have existed since its founding. But not until the current age could they operate openly within our borders as they have in their efforts to destroy the nation while demanding sympathy and equal rights.

 

The events of 9/11 are treated as no more than an example of the exercise of terror to all the Kingdoms of the earth today, but they should serve as an example of what happens when God is rejected. The real problem in our nation is the lack of Christian morals and teaching our children about the Jedeuo-Christian foundation of our country and our laws. This rejection of Jesus Christ and all Christian values has resulted in systemic failure of our society and our government of the people, by the people and for the people. It seems that we have forgotten that we are "One Nation Under God".

 

If we do not reverse the policies of the past forty years that have weakened the structure of our nation it is only a matter of time until the United States of America, which Islam has “deemed amenable to take over action” will be just another Islamic country. It is already according to our sitting President. And as they say time is on their side.

 

God is clearly giving us a choice as a nation.

 

What is needed is a good dose of Epinephrine, better known as adrenaline, to start the recovery process.  How the medicine will be administered is up to us as “We the People”.

 

We only have two choices. Either we TAKE ACTION or we wait until we must recover from wondering through the waste land of a conquered nation.

 

Money and the quest for individual power have made Congress useless as the representatives of “We the People”.  Vast sums of money acquired by individuals upon serving in this great institution have not immersed them with sudden prodigies of fortune.

The actions, or inaction, of Congress have made our government as unstable as any in the world today. As such, “We the People” demand that Congress take immediate action to cleanse itself.

 

For the sake of the future of our nation, immediately give up the benefits office. Decline your pension and place all of your re-election campaign funds into a general account for congressional elections, available to all contenders on an equal basis, such that the House of Representatives will once again function as a body of “We the People”.

 

 

Who will be the first to TAKE ACTION?

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...…
