I Bet You Thought You Voted For Obama!

You probably didn't realize when you pulled the lever or marked you ballot for Obama you were really voting for Kathleen Sebelius, but every action has consequences. When the Democrats were jamming Obamacare down our throats none of us had an accurate picture of what was really going to happen if this "hollow shell" of a law was approved. We are naive enough to believe our legislators actually create our laws. Instead, they approved a bill "that had to be passed so we would know what was in it"; one that a congressman (?) questioned why he should read it since it was not something he would understand anyway. Wow, talk about "opening the door"!

In their infinite wisdom, those we elect and send to Washington to protect our interests passed a bill designed to allow a progressive appointee, Sebelius, almost absolute power over your life, and more important to those my age, you death, page after page simply says to be decided by the secretary. One might say "and you ain't seen nothin yet"! One of the initial steps in taking away YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS is a mandate forcing businesses to cover birth control devices in their employee insurance programs:

Freedom of Religion? For Who?

Oh, you will have a choice Mr Businessman, follow this "regulation" or pay massive fines, oops I mean taxes, amounting to hundreds of dollars per employee which would be crippling for most small businesses. It sounded to me that Obama said "if you have a small business you didn't build it" yet he claimed that's not what he meant. I agree, he probably wanted to say "you didn't build it, and you don't run it either"! It's no wonder small businessmen are "sitting on their hands" and wondering what this man will do to them next.

If this administration can so easily ignore the religious freedom of thousands of people, what action will the "Secretary" take when she faces the coming shortage of Doctors to handle all those new Medicaid patients. Probably not a great time to be in "your golden years"!

The Declaration of Independence

When in the course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their CREATOR with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness - That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Format of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying it's Foundations on such Principles, and organizing it's Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate the time Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes, and accordingly all Experiences hath shewn, that Mankind more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinced a Design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security. Such has been the patient Sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of the present King of Great Britain is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World.

(The specific grievances are listed as is the Declaration of breaking the connections with Great Britain.

56 patriots (YOUR FOREFATHERS) signed the Declaration of Independence knowing they would be accused of Treason against the Crown and condemned to Death if caught!

Gettysburg Address

"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place--for those who have given their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate--we cannot concecrate--we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who have struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember, what we say here but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated to the unfinished work which they who fought have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--that we highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain--that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom--and that government of the people, by the people, and for the people shall not perish from this earth.
Abraham Lincoln
