On the lawn, south of the Capitol, a battle of the never-ending fight for Liberty continued. The main effort, to the bitter end, was accomplished by a group of about 300. There were several attempts by Leftists to hinder our efforts and to demoralize us. However, we adapted to those attempts and learned how to be better prepared next time.
Below is a video of post-vote statements made by Congressman Steve King and Congresswoman Michele Bachmann. Their remarks provide a very clear vision of what America needs to do to get back to our roots of self-reliance and Freedom.
The comment feature of this video has been disabled due to the vulgar Leftist insanity that was being posted to it. Consider this interesting observation: The Left got their Socialized Health Care Bill through Congress, one might think they would be happy. However, one would be mistaken. Based on the comments posted on the previous version of this video, the ugliness, anger and hatred of the Left, directed at decent people, is simply breathtaking. They succeed at installing their unconstitutional agenda, and they are still angry and full of hatred for who they see as “vile conservatives.” Their “fix” had no effect. It should have absolutely no wonder about why “Leftisms” always become murderous regimes; the monster’s hunger is never satisfied.
No Time to be Discouraged
March 22nd, 2010In an online conversation with a freedom-loving person yesterday morning, and in the context of what we must do in 2010 and 2012 elections, she asked me, “Do you think we’ll make it?” This spurred me to consider how we should think about our days ahead.
Paraphrasing my response to her:
Guessing at what “might be” is not our path. We shall think, act, learn, teach, lead, and pray - follow the course that is right. Led by our conscience we will dedicate our efforts to do good even though we cannot expect a guarantee of any given outcome. The constant battle for liberty holds its risks, but it provides the possibility of freedom. Doing nothing, or giving up hope, guarantees a condition of slavery.
The person to whom I made these comments was encouraged by them, and that is why I share them with you now.
Now, continuing on these thoughts:
At any point in any real fight for life and liberty, it does not matter what we guess to be our chances of success. We should not spend a moment asking ourselves that question. To the ideals that have brought us such a bountiful life, and to our children, their children, our countrymen, and to the decent people of other countries who today live in bondage, we owe our best and complete effort to do the right thing, at each moment, to preserve, restore and secure freedom. The outcome shall always be uncertain, but our determination must be completely certain — merely because, intrinsically it is the good and right thing to do.
I am not attempting to set any kind of expectation of level of activism. We all have our complete and complex lives to lead. However, do what you can, rearrange priorities (as many of you already have), step out of your comfort zone, perhaps meet with others, help them to understand what is at stake, and help them consider ways that they can engage for positive effect.
Prepare for the second front to be opened. That front will be “Amnesty” for illegal immigrants or imposition of economically destructive carbon tax.
