Isn’t it about time for Americans to stand up and defend our Constitutional Republic?
Posted on Godfather Politics-By Gary Demar-On July 2, 2012:
“Liberals hold their breath on July 4th and breathe easy on July 5th. They are afraid that a majority of Americans might actually read the Declaration and find out that our nation was founded on rebellion against tyranny — “For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent.”
On July 3, 1776, John Adams wrote the following to his wife Abigail:
The second day[1] of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more.[2]
Adams could not have foreseen that the principles of the Declaration are lost on the majority of Americans, and for that our elected officials are thankful.
Consider what Adams wanted us to celebrate: “It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty.” Deliverance from what?: tyrannical government edicts and the unbridled taxing power of the State.
Rep. Paul Ryan — on ABC’s This Week (July 1, 2012) — got it right when he criticized those who claim that healthcare is a right that comes from government:
“We disagree with the notion that our rights come from government, that the government can now grant us and define our rights. Those are ours, they come from nature and God, according to the Declaration of Independence — a huge difference in philosophy.”
Liberals – Democrats and Republicans alike — hate the idea that rights don’t come from them.
There are other principles in the Declaration that the majority of government officials don’t want voters to know about for fear that the people will rebel against them:
1. “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 entitles them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
2. “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.”
3. “That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of 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.”
4. “We, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in general Congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name and by the authority of the good people of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare that these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States.”
5. “And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.”
Time will tell if there are enough Americans who do understand the importance of the above words and will “alter or abolish” our present government and “institute [a] new government” on November 6, 2012.

I will fly the Gadsden flag everyday until our country is on the right path, no sooner!!!! My Gadsden flag went up the day the justice's voted on Obuma care and the American flag came down. The only way I will fly the American flag is upside down as out country is in distress. Until November I will continue to stock up on supplies as I believe this is what is most important. I will continue to seek out others like me. The dollar will soon be worthless, and the government will be totally in charge unless we work together to remove the people that are responsible for treason against the country and against the people of this country.
Liberals hate the 4th, the Flag of the used to be United States of America, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. They actually hate PATRIOTS.
It seems as if the best Americans are those who have struggled, sacrificed, and application to be admitted, to this country! They are the hardest-working and the most appreciative of everything and every opportunity that America affords. They study The Law of the The Land. They encourage their youngsters to get American educations, so that their futures are relatively stable and certain. They never take-for-granted the privileges they enjoy as citizens. Those who are born, here...should take a page from the Immigrants' Book! And, if they don't, there will be incompetents, despots, tyrants, and Class "A" idiots, like what we have in the White House, today...in the most prestigious and important job that America has...relentlessly gnawing-away at the nation's foundations and values...
Yes, may protect America from those in our gov't that want to destroy her..
Happy 4th, dear Patriots!
Happy Independence Day to everyone,and let's celebrate the way John Adams would have wanted,"with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more."So with that said,Happy 4Th. of July,everyone!
