Exerpt from the Declaration of Independence to Remind Us Why We're Here

[nodope0695]

From the Declaration of Independence:

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. (This is why some people still won't accept Ron Paul's message)

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. (This is why Ron Paul, and we the supporters are doing what we're doing)

That's the r3VOLution, people.:D

Thank you kindly sir. I sorta think this is important. Back to basic, right?

Bump my stuff...doesn't anybody read new posts????

Reading that whole document gives me chills. It really needs to be read aloud to have the desired effect. Whenever I need a reminder, I read it out loud to myself every so often and it works like a charm.

Ha! I do the same thing. Sounds so much better read aloud. People don't talk like that anymore.

Nice reminder. (Marking post so I can find it when I need to refer to it.)

Exactly...thats why I posted it so we might be reminded of our charge. I'm one who likes to get back to basics in order justify my actions...what better way than to turn to a founding document.

The Declaration should be read aloud in it's entireity every day at the beginning of a session of Congress.

Remind the politicians what happens when they forget who they work for.

I used this excerpt in my emails to Senators Boxer and Feinstein concerning H.R. 1955. Kinda like a subtle threat, haha.

"Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time, who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done, if we are always doing."
-Thomas Jefferson, letter to Martha Jefferson, May 5, 1787

Alright already.

My M1A is cleaned and zeroed.
