As freedom wanes to the impulses and fears of the masses, does dusk settle upon the land of the free and home of the brave?  The egregious acts of those in power have endangered, corrupted, and devaluated the freedoms and prosperity WE have taken for granted.   Our founding forefathers held these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal, yet today WE seem to believe in the equality of outcome, not just opportunity.  WE expect government’s role to be that of a provider, and in turn, government expects complicity from US.  No matter our choices, good or bad, WE expect there to be no consequences for OUR mistakes, and no rewards for OUR hard work.   Today, our generation sets forth a cascading avalanche of dangerous and incomprehensible reform which will not easily be undone and impossible to ignore.
    WE sit idly by as our cherished freedoms vanish, and OUR government reaches its tentacles into the pockets and around the necks of every soul it touches.  OUR money dwindles, OUR enemies, foreign and domestic, lick their lips with perverse pleasure waiting for OUR COLLAPSE while WE gleefully discard the very things which made OUR country great.  Those in this government of the people, by the people, and for the people, have done no less than the following:

THEY have spent money which does not exist, money which it cannot pay back, to pay for their mistakes.  They take by force from those who are able to succeed to fund those who have made poor choices.
THEY have requisitioned monies from those who contractually earned it, abandoning the Constitution of these United States of America, whereas in Section 9, Clause 3 states: No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.
THEY have approved a budget exceeding $3,000,000,000,000 which is one-fifth of the entire Gross Domestic Product of this country.
THEY have allowed a tax code to exist which exceeds 17,000 pages whereas an average King James Bible is roughly 2,200 pages.
THEY have appropriated monies for inane and unnecessary projects as asinine as the research into the genes of grapes to funding a dance theatre in Brooklyn, NY.
THEY have proposed eliminating privacy in voting for individuals in a company which may become unionized.  The card check legislation would allow open ballots whereas a worker would not have the privacy to determine whether their company should be unionized or not.  Intimidation and harassment by union members would influence those who would otherwise reject such measures.
THEY have proposed restricting free speech with the “Fairness Doctrine” in which private media organizations are restricted on what their commentators can say, and how they can say it.  The Fairness Doctrine would require talk shows to present the opposite side of a particular view, and in no uncertain terms, dictate how a show can be run by its host.
THEY have cut funding to the F-22 Raptor Fighter jet, the most advanced fighter plane in the world, promoting unnecessary projects and cutting the vital defensive weapons.  A government’s responsibility at the very least is to defend its people from all threats, foreign and domestic.  By eschewing our most powerful weapons, we are abandoning government’s primary role, and substituting it for a bastardized ad hoc interpretation of what it best serves.
THEY have refused to secure our borders from hostile invasion, choosing to spend money on far more important grape genome research.
THEY have proposed freeing enemy combatants in the War on Terror from prison centers, releasing them into our United States of America, and funding, supporting, and providing for them.
THEY have eliminated calling the War on Terror, the War on Terror.
THEY have proposed reinstituting a ban on assault weapons when Russia plans to militarize the arctic, when Mexico’s drug lords are waging war both at and within our border, when enemies abroad threaten to strike our homeland.  They have failed to address the fact that law abiding citizens are not the cause of crime, bur rather the victims, and that criminals will not be dissuaded by their legislation to acquire powerful weapons.  They are taking the ability for the individual to defend him or herself and empowering criminals to attack the defenseless.
THEY have enacted legislation which forces “volunteerism” with the Serve America Act on our youth in such a way as to promote serfdom and servitude to the government within a representative republic.  
THEY have promoted a separation of Church and State, yet spout the dogma of the Church of Global Warming, whereas scientific debate is hushed and the rhetoric of fear has influenced legislation.   As more scientists question the validity of man-made global warming, they are in effect, branded as heretics.  
THEY have demonstrated fiscal irresponsibility, dovish national defense, inept and hurried legislation, dangerous infringements upon our liberties, and disdain for our sacred Law of the Land.   
These times are troubled, but we find ourselves shovel in hand burying ourselves deeper into this quagmire.  We voted for change, and change we have received, but when we change all that is good, decent, honest and prosperous in this nation to bend to the whims of power hungry elitists, we have done ourselves no favor.  WE the people are still capable of the freedoms our founding forefathers died for.  WE would be dishonoring their names if WE allow such indecencies to persist unchecked.   
    Sir Isaac Newton told us for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, and as the pendulum swings to toward oppression and despair, WE the people, not THEY the government are the only hope to see the great pendulum swing back toward goodness, hope, and riches both tangible and intangible.  WE the people are the core of this country, and it is not by the grace of government, but by the grace of God we are free, happy, and prosperous.  
    Laws can be written, codes can be enforced, but it is the core values each individual possesses which grow our nation to greatness.  WE the people have the ability and obligation to change these measures, to prevent catastrophe, to preserve liberty, to promote goodness, and to demonstrate to the world that WE will not go quietly into the night, WE will not let sanity and justice be replaced with envy and pettiness, WE will not lie in front of the steaming tank of oppression, but WE will shout from the top of our lungs WE ARE FREE!
