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.

REPUBLICAN ELITES ON THE TRASH HEAP OF HISTORY –

REPUBLICAN ELITES ON THE TRASH HEAP OF HISTORY –

The Revolution Has Begun!

Is the Republican Party falling apart, exploding, imploding, crashing?  Or is it a very small, minute, tiny segment of the Republican elite who are watching their Republican world falling apart, exploding, imploding and crashing before their very eyes.  Their insular Republicanism is going the way of the buggy, and they really, really don’t like it.

 

Curious isn’t it, the very people who wanted unity at the end of the primary season are now running away from Donald Trump, the choice of the people.  You’ve read the statistics; Mr. Trump has blown away all the numbers during the primary season.  More people have come out for him to pull the lever because they know, instinctively, this is the right guy. 

 

Why is that?  He has answered the earnest call of the very people who put all these half-hearted Republicans into the House and Senate to stop Obama.  They wanted representatives of change, of courage, of clear-minded common sense to get rid of Obama Care, build the wall, stop spending, fix the Veterans’ Administration, build up our military and support them, get government off our backs by eliminating the crushing burden of laws and regulations that stymie free enterprise, and to make a level playing field on the world stage in commerce.  What happened after we elected a MAJORITY in the House and Senate?  Simple answer:  NOTHING!  And now, these very people who campaigned on all of this and promised their best effort rolled over and let Obama have his way.  Paul Ryan went so far as to eagerly pass the last budget which would fund exactly what Obama wanted.  So much for the loyal opposition.  And now Mr. Ryan does not want to support the presumptive Republican standard bearer?  I believe the Freedom Caucus should be revived and ask for his immediate resignation.  He is not worthy of the office. 

 

As far as the former Bush presidents they are a complete mystery.  For all the years of the Obama administration and his taking down America, they were SILENT.  They never said a word as Obama drove our beloved country deeper into debt, promoted racism, gutted and eviscerated our military, practiced crony capitalism, with his Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, made the Middle East into a tinder box that could explode at any time, created thousands of Syrian refugees, allowed ISIS and all the Muslim fanatics free reign as they spread fear, mayhem, and killing around the globe, as Obama made us the paper tiger, laughing-stock of the entire world.   Not only does the world mistrust us, they no longer respect us.  And where was the Bush family?  But, they are more than willing to say they will not support the nominee of the Party?

 

Mitt Romney is one more silent elite who does not want to lose his power and standing.  As far as I am concerned, he already has.

 

What basis do all these so-called leaders give for not supporting Trump?  Frankly, I don’t care.  The very fact they won’t shows me they are afraid of losing their standing, however, Donald Trump is fearless and doesn’t care either.  He cares what America needs, not what this small minority of people crave, their power and the status quo.  What elites don’t understand is for all the years the people worked and voted for them to give them their power, and were left empty-handed, now the REVOLUTION is in full swing, for the people are tired of unkept promises.  Time for action, time to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
