Welcome to the Sons of Liberty webpage.  I decided after the debacle of the last general election in 2012 to put up this webpage in order to have a voice.  Like many of you I have felt completely helpless against what unfortunately has happened - the second term election of Barack Hussein Obama, and what I believe to be the consequences of this election

The purpose of this webpage is myriad.  One of the most important reasons is for me to be able to write about what is going on in our country and to speak with likeminded Americans who want to be heard and also to know the comfort that there are people out there who think similar to you.  My first article for this page is "Thoughts on the Presidential Election of 2012."  I wrote this piece in November 2012 right after the election and as you will read, I have serious concerns about our future.  In the comings days, I'll write on political issues as well as morality issues, since they are truly linked.

President George Washingon said in his 1796 Farewell address:  "Of all the dispositions and habits, which lead to political prosperity, Religion and Morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of Patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of Men and Citizens. The mere Politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could not trace all their connexions with private and public felicity. Let it simply be asked, Where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation desert the oaths, which are the instruments of investigation in Courts of Justice? And let us with caution indulge the supposition, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect, that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.It is substantially true, that virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government. The rule, indeed, extends with more or less force to every species of free government. Who, that is a sincere friend to it, can look with indifference upon attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric?"

So here, forthwith, is my commentary in the blog to the right.  Let me know what you think.

BENGHAZI AND THE TURKEY MURDER – LOOKING FOR AN HONEST MAN

by Gerri Gibney on 02/07/13

Isn’t it amazing that we have heard more about that poor woman from Staten Island who was murdered on a visit to Turkey than we have heard or learned about the killing of our Ambassador Chris Stevens and Sean Smith, Glenn Doherty, and Tyrone Woods the three brave American heroes in Benghazi?

 

Every time you turn on the radio, the T.V. or read the news you learn something new about this woman’s goings and comings.  Half the press corps must be on top of this, and, yet, what did we hear about the incident in Benghazi?  How many times did the press go to the state department to question Mrs. Clinton?  Right, Mrs. Clinton was sick, not available.  One of her underlings was sent to the hearings.  When she finally came to the hearings what did she tell us?  Oh, I know, seems to me the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton said something like “What difference does it make?”

 

Here’s a question for the press core; what difference does it make about this lady from Staten Island, who from the little I know left two children and her husband on a jaunt to an unstable part of the world to take pictures.  Why does she deserve the scrutiny from the press that her murder is engendering?  I don’t like moral equivalency, but in this case, I’m going to make an exception. 

 

Again, I ask why is the Turkey story so important.  Why is the press so interested in her, when a United States Ambassador and three American citizens were deliberately murdered by Islamic terrorists on that fateful day of September 11th?

 

Why are the press, and the American government, under the auspices of the F.B.I. going over this murder in Turkey with a fine tooth comb, and we still don’t know what really happened to our people in Benghazi?

 

We must demand the truth.  The so-called hearings were a sham, and the elected officials who sat on that committee should be ashamed of themselves.  We received no answers, just lies, and disinformation. 

 

George Washington said “I hope I shall always possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.”  Mrs. Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama will never possess that title.

I will attempt to write my blog again. The country’s first problem is the danger of run-away inflation, also called hyperinflation. This is not simply very high inflation, it is a state where the currency becomes worthless. Incidentally, inflation is not an increase in prices, but an increase in the money supply. The increase in prices is a result of inflation. The change in meaning of the word is deliberate. The Federal Reserve, which is the engine of inflation, can thus pose as an inflation-fighter. This it has done since 1913, when it first came into existence. Banks have a natural tendency to cheat, in the sense that they like to give out more loans than they have money. This brings up the danger of a run on the bank, a state in which everybody lines up at the bank to take out their money. The Fed is a child of the banks. It was created in 1913, when the bankers got together on an island off the coast of Georgia owned by J.P. Morgan to create the Federal Reserve, a bank of last resort which would bail out cheating banks and save them from a run on the bank. At that time, money was gold, and paper money was money substitutes. The run on the bank was an attempt to take out one’s gold before it ran out. It nailed the banker and delivered him to a debtor’s prison. The Federal Reserve had the resources and gold of the government to back it up, so it never ran out of money to back up a cheating bank. Runs on the bank became a thing of the past. However, it was a drain on the country’s gold reserves, so that the dollar continued to lose gold to the general public. In 1933, FDR passed a law that the banks will no longer pay gold in return for paper money. The dollar became a fiat currency, one that is no longer backed by gold. All this tIme, foreign central banks could exchange their dollars for gold, so President Nixon began to renege on the promise to pay gold for dollars, thus closing the gold window. The U. S. was inflating away, so the value of the dollar plummeted, never to rise again. The second problem facing the U.S. is military spending. It is out of control. One way to control it is to close U.S. bases abroad. The U.S. cannot continue to be the world’s policeman. All those bases are draining our wealth away and getting us into foreign wars because of treaties accompanying those bases. The U.S. is the nation most involved in foreign wars today. This is one field where the Republicans could help balance the budget. It is a matter of simple arithmetic. To continue the current policy is insane. The third problem is that, in the 2012 election, according to Senator Rubio, the Republican party received less than 15% of the vote of Blacks, Hispanics and those below the age of 30, this despite the fact that it is the party that abolished slavery and the Jim Crow laws that existed in the Southern states. It has failed to take credit for these policies.
