It appears there is something going on here...that we are learning nothing about if any of this is true. How do we know any more what is true and what isn't? we are surrounded by trolls, and theorists as well as those in our nation who want to see us destroyed if their actions are to be believed. I am certain most of the current Congress members have never read the Constitution which they held up right hand and swore an oath to.

WE may have until May 22-28 to save the USA...if this is true...it is It looks convincing. Is this a lie? Are We the People no longer in charge here?  Or is tyranny arriving without giving thought whatsoever to our Constitution?

So what is that niggling little feeling one gets just thinking about smacking someone who says something stupid?  My mom always told me to listen to God when he was reminding me of how to behave.

Don't miss the point....

Great observation; who is Michael Ellner? There are several listed here and there; who uttered this quote?

And further, Many phrases in the Declaration of Independence were originally preached by the Rev. John Wise (1652-1725) who served at Congregational church in Chebacco Parish in the southeastern part of Ipswich, Mass., whose sermons were reprinted and published by the Founding Fathers before the Revolution.  So God, as you might see if you study, was a very important part of the Founding of America.  It matters little how many times Lord is in the Constitution because the 'frame' of the Constitution has reference to God many times. The frame being the Declaration. One might ask if not from God, then who do the 'blessings' of Liberty come from. NO ONE ELSE.

According to Richard Henry Lee, American Statesman and Founder, Thomas Jefferson copied the Declaration of Independence from John Lock's book "The Two Treatises of Government," which cites the Bible over 1,500 to show the proper operation of a civil government...and the book was about 400 pages long.  Whole lot of God in that...
Spare me other people's good intentions. I am self reliant, self responsible and self sufficient...at least as much as I can be with government watching over me like a wayward child.

It is in full bloom now and much is lost for those who step out of line.

I am always curious why we are bringing anyone a democracy. None of the Founders were fond of a democracy. The Constitution has it not once in it.  Article IV Section 4 of the Constitution tells us what type of government the USA has: a Republic...and yet...no one tells us that 'we' are bringing/taking 'them' a Republic. The 2 systems of government are VERY DIFFERENT!

A lesson in how to trust no one...

for your own good via do-gooders?

Was this a threat?

11 years later...I have not changed my mind

and so, ... history repeats...and here we are once again...if you don't listen, if you don't read, if you don't believe, you become part of the masses, and like lemmings, the masses often careen over the cliff into the ocean...or...if they gain in strength, they just call those who are in their way, cockroaches, and rid themselves of the 'pests' who stand in their way. Mao did it. Hitler did it. Castro did it. The USSR did it. This time, they are planning on ruling...the world.
History repeats. The goal is larger ... We don't love freedom enough.

It is so much easier to follow than to lead...

Once...

yeah, not so much anymore in the nice dept. and this Repub, an old lady tapping 80 on the shoulder can still change a flat...but mostly his humor is good...he just didn't make the laughter bubble with this one.

Yes, but will live long enuff to see that happen? I think those in North Korea are waiting...still...

Reuters fact checkers state:   The quote comes from a 1916 work by William J. H. Boetcker in a 1916 booklet called Inside Maxims, which later became known as the Ten Cannots.
Where ever it came from...it speaks the truth...

It doesn't change the sentence which is true.

The collapse of America appears to be progressing...perhaps are return to first principles would restore this nation???

Most state issues have been usurped by the federal government and the people have been ignorant of their own laws of the land. America will only survive if complete turn around to original constitutional law is returned to this nation. This will likely never happen as people in general believe their government means them no harm when that is the furthest thing from the truth...those in the federal government have 2 interests: power and money...at taxpayers expense. Today, if anyone wished to take a look at a score card of who in Congress adheres to his/her Oath of Office they will find it is less than 10% of the people they elected. Sadly, the people re-elect these same miscreants for years on end proving the old adage that we (the people) get the government we deserve. There are many score cards available to those who search, but the only one that bases the scores on adherence to the US Constitution, which all gov. employees swear an Oath to support and defend is found in the Freedom Index put out by New American magazine. There may be others, but I have yet to locate one. So the quote is great. The congressional adherence sucks.

a perfect picture of EQUITY!

Should America wish to survive, it will only do so if we determine in great unity to once again put to work the original laws of this land. They are neither outdated nor are they without power for the people. At this time arrogant and ignorant people are stealing our liberty by stomping on the US Constitution and Bill of Rights and in so doing, they are placing a boot upon the neck of each American. If you don't feel the heaviness of that boot, we will never save our country.

The USA is NOT a democracy...it is a representative REPUBLIC Why is this so hard for people to understand? These are 2 very different philosophies. Ignorance isn't funny, its horrifying.
