“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Hell, parent’s can’t even spank their children any more without fear of being thrown in jail. Yet, younger generations are increasingly turning to violence to solve their problems. Some people call that progress, I call it societal failure. Read More »

Now that Democrats have finally finished pleasuring themselves, perhaps we can all come back down to Earth for just a moment and face reality. There’s a lot of tough work ahead and Barack Obama is woefully  unprepared for the task at hand.
