There are more than 300 million indescribable reasons why America is the greatest nation on earth…but our greatness comes from some place deeper. Our greatness rests on the truth that America is a slow moving giant. We don’t (as a nation) react too quickly to anything, but when aggravated…well to use Admiral Yamamoto’s words:
“I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.”
This LINK to a letter, sent to Glenn Beck by a woman from Arizona, sums up my believes. Her wrap up is as follows:
“Democrat, Republican, independent, libertarian. Understand this. We don’t care. Political parties are meaningless to us. Patriotic Americans are willing to do right by us and our Constitution and that is all that matters to us now.”
While America likes to party, scuffling bullies have bumped the record player and dancing couples have taken noticed. Our political leaders are now infringing on our fun by writing checks against an over drawn account and telling the “Rich” they owe it to America to foot the bill.
Patriotism, President Obama, is not defined by paying taxes, but rather standing up for America ideals.
Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness INCLUDES the right to profit from our hard work. Taking funds from one group of American’s to fund the social experiments for another is wrong. But I need to not you Mr. President for it is America whom you’ve awaken. The “Tea Baggers” as you portrayed us in April are merely the minutemen standing to confront the initial assault.
Soon all our Political leaders will be facing an overwhelming force and one by one the politically savvy will attempt to change sides and try to hold claim to being the champion for America. The true champion is Joe and Jane American because they carry the most powerful weapon on the planet–a united voice for freedom!
