Those were the words from Dr. Benjamin Franklin as he exited the Constitutional Convention in reply to Philadelphian Mrs. Powell’s question: “what form of government have you given us”?

We spend quite a bit of time on this website talking about the need to stand in the sunlight of your own beliefs and not be discouraged.   There is a reason why President Obama tells our national audience to stop listening to talk radio, bloggers, and those who stand in opposition to the leftward march of his rigid ideologues.  They would prefer you to find comfort amid the shadows.
Their reason is the same now as it always has been. The Fabian’s need to convince you your views are in the minority.   They hold a collective view of all governance, and individual liberty and freedom principles run directly in opposition to their own goals.
The Fabian goals are achieved by destruction of common acceptances and “Remould Closer To Their Heart’s Desire”.    Hence, they need you to actually operate against your beliefs of individualism, and they need to continue convincing people to vote against their own individual best interests.
Considering the morale of liberty against the backdrop of the Fabian intents we have drawn historical references to the Polish Solidarity movement.
Several weeks ago we outlined one such similarity;  in response a reader who lived through the Polish Solidarity experience wrote a message to share: (more…)

• The big government freedom-destroying Democrats and Decepticons said the Sequester cuts would be the ‘end-of-the-world’ type painful.
It wasn’t, no-one noticed the cuts – they were Chicken Little.
• The big government freedom-destroying Democrats and Decepticons said the federal government shutdown would be ‘end-of-the-world’ type painful.   Having learned from the Chicken Little sequester narrative, they moved to insure this time it would be more visible and painful.
Yet, it really wasn’t, the cuts weren’t even noticed except on TV – Just more Chicken Little.
• The big government freedom-destroying Democrats couldn’t allow the debt ceiling breech cuts to take place because the American people would see it’s all just more Chicken Littling.  So:

One person, that’s ONE PERSON, said:  “that be like stealin'”.   Like stealing?

“Springhill Police Chief Will Lynd confirms they were called in to help the employees at Wal-Mart because there were so many people clearing off the shelves. He says Wal-Mart was so packed, ‘it was worse than any black Friday’ that he’s ever seen”.

Louisiana – The Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) system allows recipients of government food stamps to purchase goods using a digital card with a set spending limit, but for a few hours over the weekend, that limit disappeared for many users visiting Walmart stores in Louisiana.

Walmart and local police in Springhill and Mansfield confirmed to CBS affiliate KSLA that officers were called into the stores to help maintain order Saturday as shoppers swept through the aisles at two stores and bought as much as they could carry.
Xerox, which hosts some of the infrastructure used by the EBT card system, told KSLA that a power outage during a routine maintenance test caused the temporary glitch.
Walmart workers phoned their corporate headquarters to ask how they should handle all the shoppers with unlimited, government-funded spending limits, and were told to keep the registers ringing. (more…)

Democrat Corey Booker is, well, quite frankly, the most accurate personification of a limousine liberal you can currently find.

By profession Booker is the current Mayor of Newark, New Jersey.

He’s also running for the currently open New Jersey Senate seat.

Only there’s one pesky factoid beginning to surface; not only does Mr. Booker not live in Newark, he might not even live in New Jersey and his disclosure forms for the U.S. Senate -which include address/residency requirements- appear to have been generously fudged.

An indy journalist named Charles Johnson has trailed the Booker residency issue and has produced this MUST WATCH video:

What’s great about the video is the honesty and humanity from the people being interviewed. Ms. Donna Jackson and Ms. Cassandra Dock are just like us, ordinary citizens doing the best they can to get by. Each putting one foot in front of the other yet recognizing that Booker represents the fraud that essentially outlines the hypocrisy behind everything liberals stand for. (more…)

Without liberal media bias the constructs of left-wing liberalism fall apart.
Exhibits:

Police believe 22-year-old Lindsey Sparkles Lashayla became angry at the way 21-year-old Kim Kilgore was driving.    Lashayla allegedly followed Kim to her apartment and then shot and killed her.   Police do not believe that Kilgore and Lashayla had ever met before.
If the races were reversed this story would be a major national news story as a “racial hate crime.”   Instead it is quarantined to local Georgia news while avoiding racial motives.
GEORGIA (Cobb County)  –  Cobb County police have arrested and charged a suspect in the fatal shooting of a college student following a road rage incident in Kennesaw early Friday morning.

Before you watch the video you must remember the significance of its venue.

The deliberations of the Constitutional Convention of 1787 were held in strict secrecy. Consequently, anxious citizens gathered outside Independence Hall when the proceedings ended in order to learn what had been produced behind closed doors. The answer was provided immediately.
A Mrs. Powel of Philadelphia asked Benjamin Franklin, “Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?”
With no hesitation whatsoever, Franklin responded, “A republic, if you can keep it.”

…. “if you can keep it”

Now watch this video from a few days ago at Independence Hall:

UNBELIEVABLE !

(Via GWP)  In March 2006, polls showed President George Bush had a 37% approval rating.  The exact same 37% approval rating as Obama’s today.  But, the difference in media headlines for the two presidents is disgustingly extreme.  Blasting and berating Bush with insults and doom and gloom projections, the same media emits hardly a peep regarding Obama’s plummeting approval.
Rush unleashed a firestorm of truth that left no doubt there is zero journalism taking place in the Liberal media.  But, the important point made during his articulate war path is that the Republicans are NOT losing.

In spite of the media throwing everything they have into spinning silk out of the sow’s ear behavior of the worst president in history, he has the same low approval rating as Bush did with the media throwing everything AT him.  Propped up media darling, Obama, along with his Democrats, should have an approval rating sky high and the Republicans’ should be a lot worse.
So, Rush’s message to Republicans inside the Beltway is stop the self-flagellation.  We’re not losing!  (link)

On the weekend before Miriam Carey crashed her car through barricades in front of the White House and was shot to death, her sister, Valarie Carey, on behalf of 5Linx, was in Orlando and gave a check for $54,000 to the Trayvon Martin Foundation.
But there’s an even more odd twist, which we’ll begin to outline after this story:
(Via Gateway Pundit) Miriam Carey confused America last week when she inexplicably rammed her car into the White House security gate, then sped away.  It was later discovered the 34 year old woman with her young toddler in the car was most likely suffering from postpartum depression and mental illness.  Miriam Carey was unarmed, but the police gunned her down, anyway.  She was surrounded by police, in her stopped car, with a child inside.
Now, Miriam Carey’s five sisters, one of which is an NYPD police officer, want answers.
According to WorldNetDaily,

The sisters of a Connecticut woman shot and killed by police in Washington, D.C., a week ago say they have many unanswered questions, including why officers chose to draw their guns and point them at a woman who may, at that point, have done no more than make bad driving decisions. (more…)
