SPEAK OUT!

Our Nation is losing our freedoms that ou forefathers fought for and our young men even today continue to fight and die for. We need to stand up against the freedoms we were once given, stop listening to the leaders lies and go back to tolorating others freedoms even when we do not agree. Someday it may be our own freedom in what we enjoy personally, or believe in strongly, taken away.

SPEAK OUT! There be upon this nation Those who dare to all, deceive. Beware, those poor souls who lay Their trust before them and believe. Oh, with what merit, greater fools have lost, Their hard won hearth and home; Bared their burdens to a fox, Whose, very evil brought him gold. Take warning- to those whose pride they wear On bent and broken backs Their sacrifices mean but naught, To a tyrant's bulging sacks. Through patriot’s fight, and wearied brow To win laws that will guard their gains, Of what hath win for freedom wrought But to feed the deviant’s vein? Yet, indifference straightens more the foe, If there is no questioning stance, Thus,by silence the governing body is given Free reign, to decide our fate. Solutions, minus morality’s code, No longer God’s right to guide, When,our constitution’s meaning is debased By those who dismiss with pride. All words created upon freedom’s script By the forefathers, of our nation won, Have in this present, selfish age Been deleted, and then redone. Cry out! Cry out! For the meek and mild, For those who are blindly led Against the deceit that “All is well”- Lest woe falls upon their heads. The new generations, full of say Have taken it upon themselves, To do away with the majority vote Then shrink it down to one. Now freedom’s laws for the good of all, Have been sorely redefined, To result in loss of freedoms gained, And reduced to “what is mine”. Speak out! All those with heads bowed low Whose thoughts tarry on what's not true , Those theives will take from those who do right And give all to the lawless few. Break the bubble of ignorant bliss Stand tall against the crowd Bring back the love of what is right, By giving honor, back its crown.

Well, we will just have to wait. For to impeach Mr. O all that is left is a VICE Pres who a step BELOW par to say the least. White House is truly creepy these days.

Very patriotic. And that's the ruse. I'm not sure that blindly following, god, country and honor is at it all right thing to do when careful thought says otherwise.

Uh, we have a Muslim in the White House. Although it is of little comfort now, I can say that I didn't vote for him in either election.
