The New Revolution – by Hal Mitchell – 1/20/10

One if by land and two if by sea – was the signal from The Old North Church in Boston, Mass. in 1775. From there Paul Revere would start his famous ride that began the American Revolution.

On Tues. night a New Revolution began and this time the cry was “The Patriots are coming” instead of the British. How appropriate that this New Revolution also started in Boston, where the Colonists first took a stand against “foreign” oppressors. After listening to Scott Brown’s challenging acceptance speech I believe we might also say it was “The Scott heard around the world”.

Scott Brown’s speech was both inspiring and uplifting. His attitude and demeanor sounded like a rally speaker at our newest political movement, the “Tea Party”. I would also add that Boston is the perfect venue to start a resistance against usurped authority.

Senator elect Brown also fired several volleys across the bow of Obama’s “Ship of State”. Beltway hacks in Washington, and terrorists around the world, were put on notice that America’s interests come first, if he has his way. This National Guard Colonel means to defend Americans against all enemies, both “foreign and domestic”. His election was also a referendum against Obamacare. Huaa!

Scott Brown is definitely a Patriot and you already know who the pinheads are.

In God we trust!

The Price of Liberty - Hal Mitchell

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains or slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! Patrick Henry.

Everyone should have a cause or a dream they believe in so strongly that they are willing to die for it. Patrick Henry and our founding fathers had such a dream. They were willing to lay down their lives for that dream and many of them did. The fulfillment of their dream was The Declaration of and the war for Independence. Our freedoms today are guaranteed by The Constitution they crafted and we must defend it. I am sorry to say that today there are few in America who have that kind of dedication.

We are now fighting for a cause as deep and fundamental as that of our founding fathers. That cause is to preserve our Constitution, our American way of life, and to return to the values our Founders espoused. Our values and, consequently, our freedoms have been eroding at an ever increasing pace during the last two decades. Both major political parties and all three branches of government are guilty of causing this slide down the slippery slope to Socialism and government control. These officials are more concerned about political correctness and fear of offending our enemies than of doing what is right. What’s more, they have a total disregard for the will of the people they represent.

Thankfully, we still have a few Patriots with enough courage to fight for this cause. These Patriots are found, mostly, in the military, conservative churches, and the Tea Party movement. We are passionate, our numbers are growing exponentially, and we eagerly look forward to the 2010 elections. We believe it is our patriotic duty to stop this cancerous erosion of our freedoms and we will be heard!

If you agree with my assessment that our freedoms are eroding are you willing to say, with Patrick Henry, “Give me liberty or give me death”? Then get active in the Tea Party movement and/or work for conservative candidates in the next election. Make your voice heard by telling your Representative and everyone else how you feel. You can also subscribe to Patriots on Purpose and help me promote this second “revolution”.
