History Does Not Wait (from May 2009)

Hey Folks,

Due to a new addition in my family, I am a little tired so I am re-posting a newsletter from May of 2009 that is still relevant today. Please take another look at "History Does Not Wait" from May 2, 2009

History Does not Wait
To The People of Liberty,

We are in a time of historic significance not because we have elected our first black president but because we have allowed those, our forefathers fought to give us power over, to wrest from us our heritage as well as our future. We have essentially given up our inheritance of liberty for submission to a small elite. We have ignored the warnings from our past and now find ourselves in a situation most dire.

The wise men who founded our great nation have been reduced to rouges and liars by those who wish to govern us. We are told that their words now hold no meaning, that we have “Progressed” far beyond the dreams of our founders, yet one need only look at where we are to see the progress they speak of has been tried before and failed. If we look at the words of those old wise men, we find, more often than not, that they ring truer than ever before.

”The truth is, all might be free if they valued freedom, and defended it as they ought,” Samuel Adams spoke these words over 200 years ago and the last line of it makes me wonder if we defended it as we ought?
"The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.” Thomas Jefferson wrote these words over 200 years ago, do you see anything that sparks a thought?

Our current body politic has passed the largest spending bills in history. They have given themselves money from the public coffers in the form of “Pork Barrel” projects and pay raises while trying to dig even deeper into the people’s pockets. Thomas Jefferson appears to have been very correct on this issue.

The dreams of our fathers are dying, America is dying, and our very way of life is dying. Where do you stand? Where do your friends and family stand? What do you plan to do?

“History does not wait for the timid or the indifferent; history is for those daring enough to make it.”~ M.M.
