That is the true scheme of their form of "equality." Reply Mary - MI 5/24/13 re: James Madison quote Kudos to all you patriots, Mike, Norwalk, J Carlton, Calgary, jim k, Austin, Tx and E Archer, NYC!!God bless the wisdom and servants to liberty and all that they risked and put on the line for freedom! Reply Mary - MI 5/24/13 re: Thomas Paine quote Sadly, it seems that ignorance has the upper-hand in today's world of Progressive Obama groupies. 2 Reply Mary - MI 5/17/13 re: Dr. John J. Tigert quote Isn't it odd how this all dumbed-down education started to take place during and after the year 1913 when the Progressives such as Woodrow Wilson and Teddy Roosevelt got a foothold on the educational system? 4 Reply Mary - MI 5/17/13 re: Cicero quote How profound and prophetic! 3 Reply Mary - MI 5/13/13 re: John Norton Pomeroy quote Bravo to your statement E. Archer, NYC Reply Mary - MI 5/8/13 re: Donald S. MacAlvaney quote J Carlton & Mike - More then a little bit of important food for thought presented by both of you.Yours in Liberty! Reply Mary - MI 5/7/13 re: Jeffrey R. Snyder quote J Carlton, Calgary - Excellent and eye opening post! Reply Mary - MI 5/7/13 re: Jeffrey R. Snyder quote L. Hanson, Edmonton, Canada - I hope you remain in Canada where far too long you bowed to a Monarchy.Our founders risked life, limb and their fortunes to garner us a Limited Government Republic and bestow on our nation the protections of the natural born and unalienable rights of the individual.Thankfully, As a daughter of a Canadian born mother I know many Canadians who have far more objectivity and common sense - that you so seemingly greatly and pathetically lack. Reply Mary - MI 5/3/13 re: Frederic Bastiat quote Frederic Bastiat was one of the most profound thinkers of his day. His ringing words are just as relevant today as when they were first put to paper.Everyone who has not read 'The Law' should place it as an immediate must do.I have purchased many a copy to give out to members of my township board, as well as friend's and neighbors. My personal copy is thoroughly highlighted. 3 Reply Mary - MI 5/1/13 re: Benjamin Franklin quote Waffler - I would suggest to you that you stop walking through 'Alice's Looking Glass' or at least quit admiring despots like Karl Marx. 4 Reply Mary - MI 5/1/13 re: Benjamin Franklin quote Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and many of our nation's founders were great historians and researchers of government/s.Because of their wisdom, knowledge and insights they tried with all their might in their promulgation of the U.S. Constitution to revere, protect and uphold the unalienable and natural rights of the individual from an overreaching government and its all too often tendencies to become a dictatorial despotic plunderer. 1 Reply Mary - MI 4/25/13 re: Walter E. Williams quote Love Walter Williams - Not only his wit, but also his great wisdom! 1 Reply Mary - MI 4/25/13 re: Santo Presti quote Abolish the 16th Amendment!It looks as if Waffler has never, ever read the 'Creature from Jekyll Island' and I doubt very much that Waffler would ever attempt to. 3 Reply Mary - MI 4/25/13 re: Henry Bellmon quote Abolish the 16th Amendment. Reply Mary - MI 4/23/13 re: Lyn Nofziger quote Kudos to Lyn Nofziger, except I would change the word "forced" to "instilled!" 3 Reply Mary - MI 4/23/13 re: United States Supreme Court quote E Archer - I totally agree with your statement "Judges do not make law -- at least they are not supposed to. The statement whether paraphrased or not, is a clear and accurate statement -- and indeed an opinion of one judge."It is not in the lawful authority for the judges to "make law", but only to define and conclude within the enumerated constitutional guidelines and mandates whether laws that have been created through the legislative process are lawful or not. 2 Reply Mary - MI 4/19/13 re: Thomas Jefferson quote May I add that WAFFLER's pseudonym suits him/her to a "T" -- He/she continues to "waffle" on objectivity, reality and TRUTH while living in the fog of the unknown! 1 Reply Mary - MI 4/19/13 re: Thomas Jefferson quote Where are the statesmen of today who are in need of emulating the wise and prophetic Thomas Jefferson? 4 Reply Mary - MI 4/16/13 re: James Madison quote I'm not one bit surprised that dear ol' Anonymous, Reston, VA US would give this quote by James Madison a thumbs down...since I'm sure Reston would love to shred and tear the constitution asunder.Well, let me have a go at another quote from someone of like mind who I greatly admire and support. --"But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime." -- Frederic BastiatIt is not the place of government or is it within its authority to take the fruits of anyone's labor, whether rich or poor and dole it out to anyone which suits its whim. Charity should only come through individual choice and conscience and not through or by the theft of the government. 2 Reply Mary - MI 4/15/13 re: Grace Commission quote This quote is just a relevant today as it was in 1984. Now this nation is much further along in unsustainable debt for which every American is victimized for being the collateral for all of the U.S. Debt! Reply Mary - MI 3/12/13 re: Lawrence Auster quote Lawrence Auster is dead on target in this comment. It models the comment of Thomas Jefferson - "A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have."A government that bases itself on making the individual solely dependent on it eats away at personal self-initiative, responsibility and self respect. 3 Reply Mary - MI 3/2/13 re: Richard M. Cohan quote CBS, NBC, ABC are nothing but full and decades long indoctrination tools of the Progressive Washington Establishment 4 Reply Mary - MI 3/2/13 re: Doris Lessing quote Well, we have certainly witnessed Political Correctness come to full fruition. Reply Mary - MI 2/25/13 re: Thomas Jefferson quote Thomas Jefferson's statement again displays his astounding wisdom! Previous 25 Next 25 SaveOk2 Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
