first off, the Declaration is NOT a do***ent of governance. It is a =
justification (some might say "rationalization" ) of the fight for =
independence to foreign nations, as a part of a propaganda campaign.
Let's just look at a couple of things:
The list of complaints against the king of England - can anyone other =
than those who desire the overthrow of our own government in favor of a =
socialist system state truthfully that the government of the united =
states is engaged in these activities?
just one example: He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for =
the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their =
salaries.
who is it who demands litmus test for judges, and if candidates do not =
fit the leftist mold and profess that they will rule according to the =
leftist agenda, refuse to confirms?
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of =
Officers to harass our People, and eat out their substance.
who is it who demands more bureaucracies with more control over the =
lives of so many more?
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection =
and waging War against us.
who is it who work tirelessly for a nanny state (controlled by them, of =
course) at the expense of working people?
That aside, the Declaration contains no elements of governance. There =
are elements that are contained in the bill of rights, which the left =
wants to destroy. ( end of free speech by regulating content especially =
on talk radio, elimination of the second amendment, end of freedom of =
religion, end of states rights, application of rights in criminal =
procedures to enemy combatants on the battlefield, etc.
The constitution is the operating do***ent in this country. The =
declaration is interesting, but it points out more about the left and =
the dangers of the left, if they have their way destroying the =
constitution.

It is not my intention to spoil anyone's parade, today. But honor =
suggests that one dissent from the idea that Americans have anything to =
celebrate, July 4, 2008. For those who understand what today is =
supposed to commemorate, the signing of the Declaration Of Independence, =
it must rather be seen as a day for deep soul searching, followed by =
rededication for those who have what it takes to challenge what has been =
happening.
The day should best start with a rereading of the Declaration: =
http://pages.prodigy.net/krtq73aa/declare.htm.
=20
Then take a little while to think about what you have read; about the =
brave and intelligent men, who signed it. Offer a prayer of thanks, =
that there once were such brave and intelligent men! Consider what they =
would think about our present politics; our culture of dependence upon a =
Government far bigger and far more remote from the individual American =
than was the Government rejected 232 years ago; our betrayal by =
politicians urging ever greater involvement with international =
movements, that threaten the individuality of every Nation; those that =
seek to pretend that all peoples are interchangeable--an absolute =
absurdity, being virtually taught in a public school system, that has =
almost totally forgotten what the American Revolution was actually =
about; what the Founding Fathers actually believed. Consider that we =
are further betrayed by a Federal Government, that seems absolutely =
incapable of any real or sustained effort to preserve the lands and =
resources of the American people for their own posterity.
Two days ago, we posted a brief note in several news groups on the =
subject of Senator Obama, as an "accidental American." Several of his =
sup****ters were quick to take umbrage. But our point was not Obama, =
himself, but the loss of an American identity that was so severe, that =
the normal gossip, which one would expect, where one whose father was =
merely passing through, had been nominated by our oldest political party =
for President, was not in evidence. Of course, we were not trying to =
elevate gossip, itself, as a virtue. But a study of the things that =
people gossip about, tells one a lot about the psychology of a given =
people, at a given moment in time.
We are further adrift, than most mainstream Americans want to admit.
Have a soul searching Fourth!!
