A Miracle that changed the world!

Our Founding Fathers said that these 28 Principles of Freedom must be understood and perpetuated by every people who desire peace, prosperity, and freedom.

Adherence to these beliefs during the past 200 years has brought about more progress than was made in the previous 5,000 years.

1.  The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is Natural Law

2.  A free people cannot survive under a republican constitution unless they remain virtuous and morally strong

3.  The most promising method of securing a virtuous and morally stable people is to elect virtuous leaders

4.  Without religion the government of a free people cannot be maintained

5.  All things were created by God, therefore upon Him all mankind are equally dependent, and to Him they are equally responsible

6.  All men are created equal

7.  The proper role of government is to protect equal rights, NOT PROVIDE EQUAL THINGS!

8.  Men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights

9.  The God-given right to govern is vested in the sovereign authority of the whole people

10.  The God-given right to govern is vested in the sovereign authority of the whole people

11.  The Majority of the people may alter or abolish a government which has become tyrannical

12.  The United States of America shall be a republic

13.  A constitution should be structured to permanently protect the people from the human frailties of their rulers

14.  Life and Liberty are secure only so long as the right of property is secure

15.  The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free market economy and a minimum of government regulations

16.  The government should be separated into three branches: legislative, executive and judicial

17.  A system of checks and balances should be adopted to prevent the abuse of power

18.  The unalienable rights of the people are most likely to be preserved if the principles of government are set forth in a written constitution

19.  Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to government, all others being retained in the people

20.  Efficiency and dispatch require government to operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority

21.  Strong local self-government is the keystone to preserving human freedom

22.  A free people should be governed by law and not by the whims of men

23.  A free society cannot survive as a republic without a broad program of general education

24.  A free people will not survive unless they stay strong

25.  "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations: entangling alliances with none."

26.  The core unit which determines the strength of any society is the family; therefore, the government should foster and protect its integrity

27.  The burden of debt is as destructive to freedom as subjugation by conquest

28.  The United States has a (divine duty) to be an example and a blessing to the entire human race.

Do I have your attention? Senator Obama thinks that we as Americans have a responsibility to teach our children Spanish . Now, is that a bad thing? Lets analyze it shall we. What his comment was is as follows. He was commenting on an English Only bill proposal. He stated, and I summarize, "English only?!? Immigrants will learn English eventually. Why do we want to exclude people? When Europeans come to America they speak German, French(who cares) and English. And when Americans go to Europe we can only say"-insert his two word french statement I think- "It is embarrassing .!" So what I want to know is, who the flip cares? I do think it is great when others speak many languages. Our founding fathers spoke many languages. Many self taught themselves Latin , french and the like as well as learning English . What is the difference. Well for one it is our educational system. Our government took it over, without a constitutional right to do so by the wa

Another soldier gives his everything for me!

Yesterday I got a call that I never wanted to get.  My mother called to let me know that an Army chaplain and two Officers arrived with news of my brothers death.  Words do no justice to the anguish and pain that I felt and still feel.  Glen Jacob Whetten loved what he did and was good at it.  He had a desire to serve his country before he was even old enough to enlist.  He joined right after turning 18 and left for boot camp at Fort Benning soon after High School graduation from South High School in Phoenix, AZ. He was first assigned to the 24th Infantry Division(I think) out of Hawaii.  There he became jump qualified and of course expert marksman.  His goal was to become an Ranger, an Airborne Ranger!  Those dreams were realized and he later was re-assigned to the 82nd, an Airborne Ranger Division. He was part of the initial assult on Iraq and the March on Baghdad.  His only regret was they came in so fast they did not need to parachute in at the airport ahead of groud troops.

Are there any Sons of Liberty left?

Samuel Adams was among the first to consider himself a Son of Liberty. These were early Americans who were gathering and expressing themselves in town meetings and in Taverns, protesting the treatment they were receiving at the hands of the Crown. The Americans were experiencing ill treatment from their Governors and other appointed leaders. Not everyone was a patriot. There were many Tories, or those loyal to England and the Crown. And then, like now, there were many who sat on the fence. These were people who did not like the way things were but did not want to 'rock the boat'. Enter patriots who started organizing across New England and into the surrounding colonies. They became the voice of the silent majority who would be silent no longer. Samuel Adams was the first, but many early patriot leaders followed his lead. Joseph Warren became an outspoken leader as well as Patrick Henry, John Hancock and Paul Revere. These men as well as many others were the leaders who organize
