It’s no longer about Republican vs Democrat or Right vs Left. It’s no longer even about right and wrong. It’s about freedom vs oppression, liberty vs tyranny. It’s about the people against a government out of control! If one thing was evident, reading the signs and sensing the mood at this weekend’s Washington march, it was the resolve of ordinary citizens not to relinquish our country to the radicals and ideologues that have taken our government hostage.
While they choose to ignore the Second American Revolution that is taking root, those elected but failing to represent us do so at their own peril. They have forgotten they work for us and can be fired next year. In a mere seven months, together with the Marxists and shadow government czars doing ‘Bama’s bidding, these officials have inflicted more damage upon the greatest nation on Earth from within than all the armies, explosives and madmen that have challenged us from across the sea. Unlike our more submissive European brothers and sisters, we will not quietly submit to a takeover by tyrants. Americans have been down that road before and have proven our metal.
The one promise the acting president has actually kept is to unite us. He has united the mainstream majority and awakened those who have too long been asleep. He has unwittingly watered the seeds of freedom and they will be nurtured and grow with each new bureaucratic atrocity. That was apparent during the march, the ranks of which swelled beyond anyone’s expectations. Estimates range from a low-ball 70,000 to as many as 1,000,000 people. Anyone familiar with the geography of D.C. can see just from the pictures, that if not a million, at least several hundred thousand came to demand return of our country. All but the state controlled media, even the British press, reported a greater number of people than attended the Obamination on January 20th.
This was a massive coming together of Republicans, Democrats, Independents, Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Asians and all persuasions of American patriot. As I said to a Left-leaning friend of mine, listening to him defend the indefensible and trivialize the Tea Party movement — “If we had guys like you in 1776, today we’d all be speaking with an English accent and hurling four letter epithets at other drivers from the left hand side of the road instead of the right.” I hope he’s still my friend.
Here are a few pictures from what I have come to call Saturday’s March for Freedom.
By the way, flags were at half staff because of the death of Ted Kennedy — don’t let any Libs tell you different. Too bad we didn’t have a few tons of tea to toss into the Potomac as an added exclamation point!
