When is enough enough?

Draft of the Declaration

WE moan, we complain, we vote or don't vote (then you really shouldn't be complaining - right) According to America's Declaration of Independence, the citizen's of the United State of America have rights:

"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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer, while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the Forms to which they are accustomed. 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."

Is this what we are coming to? It may well be. The people will decide.

Interesting.  It's been a long time since I studied that.

It seems the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing and the left hand doesn't care.

Kathleen, those documents were written with the blood of our Founding Fathers. They are a path to keep us on track and lead us back home. Our only hope is to return to the values and principals which this country was founded upon.

Kathleen, Our government representatives work for us, not the other way around. Its time to remind them of that.

I agree with the Knowles team...

Last week someone reminded me that politicians are the attorneys that could not earn a living as an attorney, so they went into politics.  That is frightful and we ned to remind them that they work for us.

Kathleen,

Thank you for reminding us where we came from. More of us need to remember our history.

Kathleen - the revolution has to start locally, where your vote actually counts. You can organize, or join those that are organized to fix your community and your state, and then our country.

Join a Tea Party near you. Remember what Thomas Jefferson said about shedding some blood occasionally.

Our town has a Democracy Group which I am a part of. We meet with the mayor and have set some goals to include keeping our city officials accountable especially in the decision making on our river area, going green and the arts. It's a small start but a start.
