CS writes,
They said, “Give me liberty or give me death!”
We say, “Give me security or I’ll not give you my vote.”
They said, “We must hang together or we will hang separately.”
We say, “Hang yourself! I’m looking out for number one!”
They left houses, land, friends, and family to fight for freedom.
We left morals, faith, friends, and family to fight for riches.
They placed a firm faith in God.
We place a firm faith in self.
They gave all.
We give only when it is convenient.
To them it was One Nation Under God.
To us it is One Nation Under political correctness.
The above quotes are not exact but you get the point. It is time for America to turn back to what made her great! We live in desperate times. My opinion is, we will not change. We are too lazy to change. We like to blame the politicians for our failures. After all, very few want or are willing to be responsible including the elected. Some great American’s actually do take responsibility. Many of 3G readers take responsibility, no doubt. Responsibility can’t rest on the shoulder’s of the grass roots movement or on our military. Responsibility needs to go mainstream! Then responsibility must go to Washington. If responsibility can’t get to Washington then “We the People” have failed the men and women that founded our precious country.
Responsibility for what? Responsibility to stand on the Constitution of the United States of America. Responsibility to lead with accountability and conviction to moral principles. Responsibility to stay true to ethics and not the ethics found in Hollywood known as situational ethics but the kind that has a bedrock; based on truth, honesty, and what once was the American way.
Countless lives have been spent to protect our freedom we need to count those lives as honorable and stand up to the moral decay and take responsibility. We are not ruled by the Supreme Court. We are not ruled by the President. We do not take our orders from Congress or the Senate. “We the People” of the United States rule this great land. We refuse to bow to tyrants, treasonous “think tanks”, money, or political posturing. It is time we rise up and take the responsibility that belongs to only us.
What do you think we say that is so different than our founders?
