What country ever existed a century and a half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure. Our Convention has been too much impressed by the insurrection of Massachusets: and in the spur of the moment they are setting up a kite to keep the hen yard in order. I hope in god this article will be rectified before the new constitution is accepted.” ~ Thomas Jefferson to William Stephens Smith, Paris, 13 November, 1787
In the spirit and tone of the letter Jefferson penned back to William Stephens while he was in Paris, the tree of liberty has not been watered in many generations, and is all but a withered and dead remnant of the mighty tree it once was…
Everywhere we look today we see SCANDAL FATIGUE gripping the nation. It’s bad enough that Leftist policy has crippled the national economy; in his latest FIREWALL Bill Whittle explains why you shouldn’t let the Clown Car Cavalcade of Incompetence cripple YOUR economy as well. Watch and discover why America is bigger than these weenies at their worst …
And from Andrew Klavan who is MAKE-BELIEVE outraged at the same bunch of idiotic, inept, inconsequential fools who make up the current rogue administration. Remember – LAUGHTER is the best medicine…
It’s no longer about our “president” or any of his minions, it’s about us. If we had but a fraction of the vision, resolve and courage of our forebears, we would be rising up and ridding ourselves and our children’s and grandchildren’s dismal future of these evil evil people and their purpose.
There’s but a scant few in Washington that, when tried by a jury of their peers (ie us, otherwise known as We The People) would escape the firing squad for the crime of Treason. The circumstantial evidence is overwhelming and the true evidence is hidden and being destroyed. And we watch, and get outraged and do nothing of substance.
Could we find a grand jury to review the evidence and indict? Could we find patriots in the Dept of Justice that would prosecute? Could we find a panel of judges that would preside over the trials? Could we find an army of Patriots that would move forward with courage to seize back the reins of power from these criminals that currently occupy the seats of power?

Liberty cannot be preserved without a general knowledge among the people, who have a right, an indisputable, indefeasible, divine right to that most dreaded and envied kind of knowledge, I mean the characters and conduct of their rulers. ~ John Adams
