The creation of the United States of America was a long struggle, built on the backs of our ancestors. They came to the "new World" with hopes and dreams of change.
They left their homeland to escape harsh living conditions. But, they knew that starting here would not be easy and it wasn't.
They had to fight to create their new homeland. A homeland made up of people from all parts of the world, who wanted to create a homeland, of one. Americans.
Our fight for independence and freedom took the blood of our ancestors. And now, we are heading in a dangerous direction.
Beginnings:
The roots of American Independence started with the early English settlers. The majority came for religious and political freedom and already did not like English laws. The settlers were rebellious in spirit and wanted to start a new life. Over the next few decades the colonies formed their own government. Continue...
The Revolutionary War:
The first gun shots of the Revolutionary War were at the battles of Lexington and Concord. The English planned a surprise attack on the colonists, but their efforts failed and neither side won. Then, at the battle of Fort Ticonderoga, the colonists surprised England. Continue...
The Aftermath:
The Revolutionary War did not end with the Battle of Yorktown. The war did not stop until about a year later. King George III wanted to keep fighting, but the British Parliament wanted to make peace. They decided to hold peace talks with the Americans in Paris,which began in April 1782. The Americans at the peace talks were John Jay, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Henry Laurens, and William Temple Franklin. The result was the Treaty of Paris - a document which gave the United States its independence. Continue...
Would our ancestors approve of the country we have become?
Our country was fought and founded on the principle of freedom. The freedom of speech that was fought for, has been slowly degraded. Our freedom to question those who wish to lead our country has been taken away by political correctness.
If our presidential candidate does not love our country. Can we trust him? What kind of change does Obama intend to make? Based on what we have been learning about him, we are in for a hell of a ride.
Looking upon Iran as a victim? Being willing to negotiate with terrorists? What does he plan to use as a negotiation tool? Does Obama even have a clue who he is willing to negotiate with?
Oh yes, the Jihadis would vote for him in a minute, if they could. Obama's ignorance will open the door right up for them.
It took many years of appeasement to get to 9/11. The pump is priming for the next one.

Oh don't worry so much, Christine. He'll probably just put the AIDS virus back in the bottle.
Anybody heard about something going down this week at the UN involving Iran? There was a customer in the store tonight who bought a copy of Bolton's book along with Suzanne Power's new one, go figure, and was going on about having to be at the UN tomorrow and that they had to keep Israel from taking action against Iran. Of course I'm not allowed to discuss politics in there so I just sort of uh-huh'd and I had no idea if this guy had an actual professional concern in this or was just some moonbat on his way to demonstrate or what. So, just askin'.
I haven't heard anything or seen anything specifically.
But, it might have to do with Hezbollah's threat to avenge Moughniyah’s death.
Could be, things are getting hot.
