Independence
Thanks to all the men and women who protect our independence that was fought so hard for. When was the last time you read The Declaration of Independence? Today is a perfect day to read those powerful words from our founders. The very first paragraph states something we should remind ourselves of. The government does not grant us our rights, our rights come from the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God…
The Declaration of Independence
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

The dismantling of American democracy
There’s no question that America has been straying from the type of government that our founding fathers had envisioned for some time now. It’s becoming more obvious to more and more Americans because the path away from American democracy is on hyper-drive. Thomas Sowell is one of The Founders Principles favorite political thinkers because he’s a great mind that believes in our constitution and the beliefs of our founding fathers. Check out his thoughts on the dangerous path America is taking.

We should learn from this oil spill…
President Obama has proposed raising the tax on oil companies because of this horrible spill in the gulf.
While I agree that the worst oil spill in history is a complete tragedy, the answer is not to raise taxes on the companies. Raising taxes on companies only translate to higher taxes for the people, the companies would never accept the higher taxes and not charge its customers for the difference
Our Founders believed in the free market. We should hold BP accountable and take this disaster as a sign that we should start drilling on land and allow the oil industry to work for the American people. The United States should be energy independent and use the free market to become a major player in the global oil industry.

Another lie from our President
The seven experts who advised President Obama on how to deal with offshore drilling safety after the Deepwater Horizon explosion are accusing his administration of misrepresenting their views to make it appear that they supported a six-month drilling moratorium — something they actually oppose.
The experts, recommended by the National Academy of Engineering, say Interior Secretary Ken Salazar modified their report last month, after they signed it, to include two paragraphs calling for the moratorium on existing drilling and new permits.
Salazar’s report to Obama said a panel of seven experts “peer reviewed” his recommendations, which included a six-month moratorium on permits for new wells being drilled using floating rigs and an immediate halt to drilling operations.
“None of us actually reviewed the memorandum as it is in the report,” oil expert Ken Arnold told Fox News. “What was in the report at the time it was reviewed was quite a bit different in its impact to what there is now. So we wanted to distance ourselves from that recommendation.”

Jindal taking action – Federal Government still pondering
Bobby Jindal Governor of Louisiana is not afraid to take action to protect his state. He was hired by the people to do so and therefore is taking the steps to protect his coastline. He states “Every day we’re not given approval on this emergency permit to create more of these sand booms is another day when that choice is made for us, as more and more miles of our shore are hit by oil.” This link shows a video of Jindal laying out his case with photographs

The responsibility of our government
The Founders believed that the main responsibility of our government was to protect our country from foreign attack. What’s happening with our borders is an invasion of our Republic. Illegal immigrants coming to this country is a problem that must be addressed today. Arizona has reacted to their problem in such a way that’ll protect themselves. The government failed to do their job, so the state took on the responsibility.
Now we have Obama and his administration entertaining the Mexican president while he criticizes our laws and actions securing our borders. This is irreparable to think our own country would apologize to Mexico when Mexico imprisons someone for two years when they cross their border.
Arizona enforced a law (with 70% approval) to protect themselves and the country. We as a nation should stand behind one of our own.

Change we really can believe in!
When Obama was running for President he kept talking about change. Change to government and the way Washington operated. Now, more than one year later we now know how that change worked out.
The real change is happening in New Jersey. Gov. Christie is changing the political landscape in the Garden State. His founding fathers belief of limited gov’t and lower taxes are beginning to take shape and his plan to bring New Jersey back from despair is starting to promote hope in all Conservatives statewide.
The process is painful and some may disagree, but the results will more than outweigh the sacrifice. Our Founders sacrificed so much for this great nation, I think New Jerseyians can do the same now.
George Washington nearly lost everything while serving his country. His example should lead all of us to do better and make the sacrifices now for a better future for our children

Back to what worked
It’s more important than ever to study our history. Our founders took the time to give us the greatest foundation a nation could hope for. We are quickly forgetting what made us the greatest country in the world (I’m not afraid or ashamed to say that, some people seem to be). Here are a couple of quotes from Thomas Jefferson:
“A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have.”
“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”

The Founders and Limited Government
70% of Arizona agree with the new immigration bill enacted in that state. The new law requires all citizens to be in Arizona legally. Can someone please tell me what’s wrong with that? Illegal immigrants are just that…illegal!! If they don’t have some documentation of legal residence then they shouldn’t be in the country…period.
Now the federal gov’t wants to get involved, the Founders believed in the rights of the states and that the gov’t should stay out of it. Unfortunately this gov’t has forgotten the principles of which this great nation was built upon.
