Political Quick Reads has moved to WordPress. The name of the blog has also changed, and from henceforth,shall be known as freedomfocus.

 The focus of this blog is freedom. Freedom is the greatest gift we have and we  are responsible for safeguarding it for future generations.

Freedom encompasses the values of our founding fathers as defined in the Declaration of Independence, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

May freedom forever ring

Thomas Jefferson an original American radical. If o’l Tom were alive today he would probably be branded an “extremist”

Thomas Jefferson, scholar, diplomat, revolutionary,scientist,president. In many was a man born out of time. A genius whose ideas and thoughts still shape our world generations after his death.

This intellectual giant was part of a class of extraordinary men who dreamed of freedom and made it happen. Guided by the principles of the word of God, and the Bible’s emphasis on freedom, these men-not only dreamed of-but brought into existence-freedom unmatched in human history.

These men dreamed a dream of freedom, of self determination, and an ideal that said “government is but a necessary evil”

What would Mr. Jefferson think of some of the events happening in our time.? Would he say that those who are angry over government usurpation of power-as well as -a total disregard for the Constitution- are extremist,out of control, an angry mob?

I think he would, but he would say such things, from the public’s point of view. He would realize that the people-in their wisdom- were rightfully outraged by the shenanigans of a rogue government.

Listen to Thomas Jefferson in his own words.

“The happiness of governments like ours-wherein the people are truly the mainspring-is that they are never to be despaired of. When an evil becomes so glaring as to strike them generally-they arouse themselves-and it is redressed”

This man had a head on his shoulders. He realized that the driving force of this nation was not the government but the people.

He knew that all real progress, change, security and freedom, lay not in governmental control, but in the wisdom and genius of the people.

Today we have a government that seems to have forgotten that the people are the master. Mr. Jefferson understood that the true role of government was to serve the people, and to provide, an atmosphere, where they could achieve Their goals and aspirations, not bow, scrape,and serve, an out of control government.

Where would Thomas Jefferson stand today, squarely on the side of townhallers, and teaparty people, and anyone else who yearned for freedom and SELF determination,not government fiat.

The Constitution of The United States of America. In my view one of the greatest documents in the history of mankind. Surpassed only by the Bible.

In fact in my opinion this document is close to holy writ, and is without a doubt inspired by God.

The Constitution has brough tunprecedented freedom, prosperity, security,and stability to,not only the United States,but the entire world.

Because of the words- penned over 200 years ago-in this text people have been guaranteed freedoms that preceding generations only dreamed of.

We can pick our own leaders, hold them accountable, and demand they do OUR will. Not the other way around.
As a result of this Nation being formed, and this precious document being created freedom has not only blossemed in America, but has also began to spread around the world.

This country-guided by the principles set forth in the Constitution- has set entire peoples free from the strangle hold of tyrants and dictators time and time again.

The world has beaten a path to our door seeking the freedom,peace,prosperityand security that is afforded by The Constitution.

Alas today our Constitution is under attack like never before. It’s time that We The People demand that our elected leaders return to the Constitution.If they refuse they must be turned out of office period.
                                                         Just some thoughts from the Freedomlover

My friend’s we live in perilous times for this tenuous thing we call freedom! John Adams warning is especially important in our times.

Our current leaders in the White House and Congress don’t care about the Constitution. They are working overtime to steal our freedom away.

The current health care plan, cap and trade legislation, as well as other actions by the current regime, pose grave threats to our freedom and America as we know it.

Obama Care will make every American “beholdin” to the government. Cap and Trade will have the government intruding into areas they have never been be for.

We are already under the gun from the I.R.S. . If we’re not care full Obama Care as well as Cap and Trade will enslave us all.

Go to the Library of Congress and become informed about the provisions of the Health care package, as well as cap and trade. I think you will agree that our government is in danger of turning it’s back on freedom.

If this happens we may never regain that most precious of gifts to man from God.
FREEDOM!

Unfortunately it was mostly anti American, blame America first stuff. I seem to remember at the time and afterward the talking heads referred to it as the summer of discontent.

Well just as those on the left had their watershed moment in 1968 when they profoundly altered, and changed the directoin of this nation. The repercussions of which are being felt to this present time.

We have had our summer of discontent. In the late sixties early seventies someone coined the phrase “Silent Majority. and linked it with what was called the “Vocal minority”. Well the silent majority is being heard and this is our chance to profoundly change the direction of this nation.

The vocal minority had nothing to do with race, but rather, ideology. The Silent Majority represented those folks who believed in the ideal of America, as well as ,the traditions of this country.

The vocal minority on the other hand blamed the ills of the world on America and eschewed traditional American Ideals.

I have been a member of the Silent Majority for too long. But things have become so serious that I can remain silent no longer. I have heard that the latest polls show conservatives outnumber liberals two to one. It’s time for us to “seize” the day, and write, publish, and organize as much as we can to help bring this country back to its foundational, and, Constitutional principles.

The silent majority cannot afford to be silent any longer
