This Sunday we will celebrate the founding of this GREAT nation, when 234 years ago the Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776.

 

We all enjoy the holiday that was created to celebrate this day.  We enjoy time with our families as we have cookouts, shoot fireworks, plan parties and more, but do we really stop to reflect on what this day really means.

 

Over the past eighteen months there have been more assaults on the Freedoms that we have long enjoyed than at any other time in our recent history.  So let us take a few moments to look at what this country represents;

  • A belief that all men are created equal - we are all different and from different walks of life but be all deserve to be treated equally.
  • A belief that the rights that we have were endowed by our creator - not the government.  The Declaration asserts the existence of the laws of nature and the nature of God.  Government does not grant rights through process, they have been granted by God.
  • A belief in the pursuit of happiness - we are not guaranteed happiness but we do have the right to pursue happiness without the government's interference.
 In spite of what the current administration says and does, it cannot provide everything to everyone.  To quote Sarah Palin "It is not the government's job to perfect us but to protect us".  What the government should do is to provide and environment where we can work to pursue and achieve our dreams. 

This 4th of July lets reconnect with our traditional conservative values - faith, limited government, strong work ethic, and a spirit of community and participation.  Read the Constitution, read about the founding fathers and the history of this great country. There are lots of great books out there to begin your journey to understanding and knowing about this great country.  Study and become an informed citizen and voter.  This next election in November 2010 will be a landmark election - let us take our country back - with NO APOLOGIES.

 

 

Around the county, citizens like you and I are beginning to understand where this President is trying to take this nation.  Enormus deficits, bailouts, taking over the car industry and a proposed takeover of the best healthcare in the world and all while struggling with an economy in trouble.

 Standup and say "no more", we want our country back.
