Independence Day - Tyranny Then and Now


    By the latter part of the 18th century the Founding Fathers had decided to break free from the tyranny being forced upon them by Great Britain and on July 4, 1776 our Founders in the thirteen colonies declared their independence from Britain with the signing of the Declaration of Independence. What caused the founders to not only want but to demand this separation from Britain and King George? There were a series of usurpations that were forced upon the colonies by King George in Great Britain.


    Here is a list of taxes that Britain imposed on the colonies in America:


    The Molasses Act imposed duties on molasses, rum and sugar from non-British islands in the Caribbean Sea to protect the English planters form foreign competition. The act was generally ignored by the Americans. Therefore the British amended it with the Sugar Act (1764) one and a half pence per gallon on wine, sugar and testiles. To settle problems under the Molasses Act the tax was reduced by fifty percent but strictly enforced. Now the Americans were feeling the threat of British rule and objected the way how the money was being spent. The British pretended to need money to support troops but the troops were stationed at ports to enforce British rule and not in the interior were the treat of attacks existed. British parliament would additional tax revenue for some imperial expenses and passed the Stamp Act in 1865 which was due on paper, newspapers, customs document, licenses, college diplomas and numerous legal forms for recovering debts, buying land or making wills. This was the beginning of censoring information as any document with unwanted comments about the British was not stamped. With the Townshend Acts (1767) taxes on glass, lead, paper, paint and tea were introduces. The colonists claimed "Taxation without representation is slavery". The boycotts of British goods leat to repealing the Stamp Act in 1766 and the new import duties were lifted in 1770 but not the tax on tea. The Tea Act of 1773 heightens the tension and finally lead to the Boston Tea Party (December 17, 1773). In reply the British passed the Coervice Act (1774) to punish Boston. This act was called Intolerable Acts by the Americans. Under this act the port of Boston was closed and the city was putted under military command. To support Boston the First Continental Congress (1774) were held in Philadelphia by fifty-six delegates from twelve colonies (Georgia was missing). By 1775 the first military actions began and in 1776 the Continental Congress declared independence. With the Paris treaty of September 3, 1783 the American Revolution came to its successful end.


    Our Founding Fathers were courageous to stand up to King George in Britain and tell him NO More! We demand freedom and liberty and we are dissolving the bonds between Britain and the colonies.


    Under King Obama there have been "a long train of abuses and usurpations" forced upon the people.


    First, Congress passed the a massive spending package which Democrats like to refer to as Stimulus. I would like to know why since it didn't stimulate a darn thing. The Stimulus only gave us more debt. And, guess who is going to be paying for the added taxes thanks to the libs? You guessed right. The average taxpayer.


    Then Obama like a good little socialist decided to centralize all the college loans and put them under the auspices of the federal government. Lord knows we couldn't have those "evil" private companies running the college loans. Heaven forbid there might be competition. You know how the government can't stand competition.


    Third, we have Obama & Co deciding to sue and declare war against one of its own states. Let's see here.... The federal government is supposed to secure the borders in order to ensure our safety. The Feds job is to make sure that people come here legally and they are to stop the border jumpers from crossing over illegally. The federal government refuses to do its job. Arizona had at least one murder that occurred which was committed by an illegal immigrant. Arizona had many more illegals who were crossing over every day so they passed an immigration law. Then, Eric Holder sued the state of Arizona. The only reason the DOJ sued Arizona is because they need the illegal immigrants votes to ensure that King Barack can keep his throne and pass more freedom-hating laws or regulations.



    King Obama refuses to defend a law of the land - The Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). He is trying to appease those with a homosexual agenda by giving his consent to the DOJ to stop defending marriage as being defined as being between a man and woman. His refusal to defend the law of the land shows his contempt for the law within the United States.


    Obamao keeps on enforcing an unconstitutional law of our land. The Patriot Act violates our Constitutional rights. He even went a step further than the Bush administration and has authorized for law abiding citizens to be groped in some very private places, like in diapers, breasts, and crotches by the TSA whenever you fly. Nothing like getting a free physical courtesy of the TSA.


    Sixth, King Obama wasn't able to get congress to pass his Cap & Trade kill the economy with huge taxes on the American people tax law so he decided to bypass that little hang up in his master plan to tax us all to kingdom come, obfuscates the Constitution and has the EPA institute regulations which do pretty much the same thing that the kill the economy with huge taxes on citizens, poor and rich alike, would have done if he would have abided by the Constitution and gotten congress to pass the law. That's right, progressives despise the constitution. It only gets in their way of their Marxist plans to "transform" America into some European socialist state.


    And, The Obama administration took over Chrysler and General Motors all to save their cash cow, the unions. Obama gave his unions a bailout and a huge stake in both companies. The best thing for Chrysler and General Motors would have been for the both them to go into bankruptcy and have to restructure. But, oh no!, that would have hurt the unions, reduced their pay and pensions. That couldn't be allowed under the Obama regime. The unions own the Democrat Party. Yes, the Democrat Party is a wholly owned subsidiary of the unions. That is why the unions must also control our public schools. The public schools are worthless pieces of junk that have failed our youth all because of the unions. The unions get paid more and somehow the students do worse. We need to start thinking about our future - the kids - and take public schools back from the unions. The unions horrible agenda to indoctrinate our youth with Marxist beliefs must be stopped!


    That's a heck of a lot of encroachments committed by King Obama. It is time for us patriots to act with the same courage as our Founders did and stand up to these liberty-hating progressives and take our country back from those who want to "transform" this country into the Socialist States of America.


    Let's have some fun and celebrate July 4th. Here is some music:

    James Cagney - You're a grand old flag



     Lawrence Welk Orchestra - America The Beautiful



    God Bless The USA with Lee Greenwood

Catholibertarian: Thank the Catholic Founding Fathers For the First Amendment

    Kevin and I have been working on our new blog Catholibertarian  and while we're still in the midst of adding links to our blogroll, political and Catholic lists we decided this would be the right time to spread the word about our blog.  If you have any suggestions for our blog please do let us know as we are new to the WordPress format.  Kevin has written a post called Thank the Catholic Founding Fathers For the First Amendment.  I hope you enjoy reading it, as it is very informative, interesting and a great piece of work IMO.


    The First Amendment  has a quasi-sacred status in the minds of most Americans because that is the amendment that guarantees freedom of speech and freedom of the press.  On that note, it guarantees the protected status of what I am doing right now in this blog.  This tendency to imagine that the First Amendment is the product of divine inspiration in nearly the same sense if not degree as the Bible is even more prevalent in those who lean toward Libertarianism.  The latter are sometimes tempted to see the U.S. Constitution, and even more so its Bill of Rights (the first ten amendments), especially the First and Second, as akin to holy writ.  For some of us, the First Amendment is the more revered of the two, but not because of the liberty it upholds in the sphere of political speech, but because the first freedom it supports is not that of speech or the press, but the free exercise of religion.
    What most people do not know is that we owe the freedom of religion we enjoy here in this constitutional republic in no small part to the efforts of Catholic, most especially Charles Carroll of Carrolton, the only Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence.   He was a delegate from Maryland, which, of the thirteen original colonies, was the only nominally Catholic one – indeed, the other delegates from Maryland were all Episcopalians.

9 Key Concepts of The Declaration of Independence

Pittsburgh Tax Day Tea Party-- Rose Tennant, Declaration of Independence Explained & Pastor C.L. Bryant

    Here are a few videos of me attending the Pittsburgh Tea Party:







    There were two buses heading from Pittsburgh to Washington D.C., and Reverend C.L. Bryant actually rode on our bus part of the way to D.C.  It was exciting!! He was so insightful into the politics of Barack Obama and talked about the difference between Obama's Czars and Bush's Czars.  He also shared how he became involved with the Tea Party movement.  He is such a brilliant and inspirational speaker!!

My Thoughts on The Fight To Keep Our Freedom & The Fight Against Tyranny

    As many citizens and I, continue to fight to keep our life, liberty, and our ability to be in pursuit of happiness from being destroyed from a war within our own borders, from keeping our constitution from being ripped to shreds, and fighting against tyranny that is being thrust upon us, here are some quotes that are from some brave men who fought against both tyranny and persecution. These quotes are quite apropos for these extremely turbulent times.

    "Man will ultimately be governed by God or by tyrants." Ben Franklin

    "It is when people forget God that tyrants forge their chains." Patrick Henry

    "The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government -- lest it come to dominate our lives and interests." Patrick Henry
       Here is a quote from a great and courageous President who stood up for freedom and conservative principles and values:
      "I used to say that Politics is the second oldest profession [prostitution being the oldest], but I have come to realize that it bears a gross similarity to the first." Ronald Reagan These DEMOCRATS and RINOS are examples of prostitutes using the voters to get their next fix- whether it be  MONEY or VOTES. They don't care about us, WE THE PEOPLE. These Democrats and RINOS are using us and going against the American people and the constitution in order to achieve the power and control that they have craved like that of hungry dangerous wolves. They are the pimps prostituting us out to work like dogs while they do absolutely nothing for the citizens whom they are supposed to be representing. These politicians are supposed to represent us and not vise versa.   We are mad as hell and are not going to take it anymore!!
      Declaration of Independence
      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 form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are 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 evinces 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.
      The citizens of this great country are in for the fight of our lives. Literally. This is about keeping our health care between the patient and our doctor. This is about keeping the government out of our health care and our private lives. We must continue the fight against this threat to our liberty and freedom that is being pelted at us each and every day. Our government is out-of-control. Our government is way out- of- control!! We are coming to a crossroads as a nation and as citizens of The United States of America that we may have to make very tough choices because of the the long train of abuses and usurpations being inflicted on us by our government. This may call for people to take a stand for this country and against any and all domestic threats. I hope that it doesn't come to this, but this may be the start of a 2nd REVOLUTION!! I encourage you to take a look over at United Conservatives post on Freedom. She did an excellent job!! Enjoy!
       
      Thank You and God Bless Our Soldiers!!!
      God Bless America!!
