"If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin."
- Samuel Adams, 1776
My entire motivation for creating this blog is political involvement. My previous four posts focused on:
- Identifying 5 people who need you to help them with political understanding and,
- Defining the 4 R’s of restoring true conservative values.
- Knowing the 3 elected officials that represent you in Washington D.C. and how to contact them.
- Adopting 2 ideas or causes that you believe are important to this country.
This last idea of 5-4-3-2-1 Freedom is that through the political process we can all insure a free and prosperous America!
I am not about to litter this posting with cliché's about freedom… but keep this in mind – freedom is not free! This means that we all must do our part to insure it! It may mean calling your congressman, protesting actions, becoming engaged or donating money. Our men and women of the military will tell you that their fight from freedom might involve losing arms, legs, hands, eyes, or even life. FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!
I am truly concerned that this nation is in trouble and has lost its roots of freedom. It is my estimation that we have lost sight of what it means to be free. It almost compels to think that we don’t deserve freedom.
So… what does a free and prosperous America look like? I think the thoughts and ideas are captured very well in The Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.
If you have never read either document, the time is now.
I will close this post by stating that if ever there were a time for the rise of patriots… it is now!
Awake my fellow citizens for we are headed to places that we really don’t want to go!
Until we meet again, may God bless you and may God bless the United States of America!!!!
