You Are Free

Well under the current administration and their agenda for this country, not exactly.

The copy reads...

* Freedom is subject to terms and conditions. "Freedom" means the freedom we give you to do and say what we tell you. "Free" means your choice to do or not do what we tell you. Freedom can be removed at any time. Freedom is subject to availability. Freedom is a privilege, not a right. Freedom does not extend to events, beliefs and actions that are not condoned by us. We will determine who is subject to Freedom. Freedom is not free. Freedom requires that there are people who are not free. Freedom can be impinged upon by those who gave you your Freedom and an continue to keep you Free. If it is determined that you perform or have performed any act, speech, or conversation that is deemed Unpatriotic, your Freedom will be immediately revoked. We will determine what is Unpatriotic as we are the only one who know what is good for you. You are Free to so what we tell you.

Something to consider as we prepare to celebrate our Nation's independence from Britain this Saturday.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

As Mark Levin so wisely stated in his new book, Liberty and Tyranny,

"...we, as human beings, have a right to live, live freely, and pursue that which motivates us not because man or some government says so, but because these are God-given natural rights."

This idea laid forth by our Founding Fathers, and described so clearly by Mr. Levin is becoming a glaring difference between current Conservatism and Liberalism.

We Conservatives need to stand up and see to it that our freedoms are not stripped from us one by one from the Government that is supposed to be protecting and defending our freedom. In the words of President Ronald Reagan

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."

Happy Fourth of July.
