Founding Quote of the Week

With respect to the words general welfare, I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators.
- James Madison

Preamble of the Constitution of these United States.

We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish Justice, insure Domestic Tranquility, provide for the Common Defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States.

Health care was bought through the Senate.....

Note I said the so called healthcare reform was BOUGHT(it wasn't a typo) through the senate by Harry Reid D-NV and his crooked minions. sen Ben Nelson D-NE I am sure was bought off just as was Mary Landreau D-LA and others. With overwhelming citizen opposition the socialist/marxist bill passed today. To add hurt to injury the vote buying was also paid for by the Tax Payer.
The Founding Fathers would be calling for revolution and a dismantling of this government.The Constitution has once again been ignored and the governed have been trampled upon.

I am not sure what all the ramifications are and believe we cannot know all due to the secret underhanded way it was constructed and passed or how much leeway it gave to bureaucracy. Where is the promised transparency? Only EVIL has to hide in the darkness and only Truth can be bold and open. It is a sad day in this nation. The Framers of the Constitution intended that bills before the congress would be long drawn out debates. The complicated process put in place was to allow time for the dirty little secrets to come to light and be removed. Time for the people to react and fight. The reason for this push to vote before Christmas was to give the crooked ones an excuse before they went home to face the people. We should not let them rest the whole of Christmas vacation. Shame on them and shame on us that sat by and did not stand up.

Text from the Declaration of Independence
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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes;

Founding Quote from Founding Fathers
There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.
John Adams

I will end here lest I say something that will reveal the total sum of my indignation and the anger that I feel in my heart. We the people have been ignored so blatantly that I fear it is a sign that tyranny is not only a possible end but has already arrived. I fear the arrogance that has been allowed to permeate among the branches of government has become a religion in itself,a religion of humanism and greedy hunger for power It is an evil that has entered their hearts and blinded their minds.

Romans 13:11,12 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge;

If the people of this nation do not rise up now and demand a return to the Constitution and the Biblical principles upon which it was founded, it will be lost forever. Then our grandchildren will never taste of true liberty.
God Help America!
David
