“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams

I yield the floor to Alexander Hamilton:

Quote
If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures.

You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality.

1 John 3:18: Let us love not in word or speech, but in truth and action.

==================================

Oppose you say?

As in YIELDING to the TPP, NAFTA, CAFTA, outsourcing the national treasures, wealth, and labor, and completely abandoning the sovereign border?

I dare so a thousand times NO, I will not yield to tyranny.

Which is what the Queen begs, and it shall not be so.

People have forgotten the "natural law" foundations of our government.   More and more they try to make it into the Aristocracy which we overthrew in 1776.
