The American flag...a standard to live by.

"I pledge allegiance to this flag of the United States of America..."



This flag that we take for granted. Do you know what it represents? Oh yeah, the stars are the states....Well, there's more to it than that.

The Red represents the bravery of the men and women who have shed their blood for radical America-hating liberals to have the freedom to burn this American flag.

The White represents or signifies the purity and balance that a Republic, a nation or country ruled by law, is intended to have.( A nation such as ours, that was ruled by the laws of a loving God and is now forgotten by the majority.)

The Blue represents the justice, vigilance and perseverance that founded our laws and the constitution and are being demolished by the complacency of the people and the corruption of the lawmakers that the people have elected.


To me, personally, this flag tells me of the countless lives lost so that my family and I can live free. So that I have the freedom to love the God of my choice, to have the cherished opportunity for happiness and prosperity, to speak my mind with out the threat of persecution.....it speaks to me of valleys and hills laden with the blood and death of people who knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that this land is blessed by the Creator of the Universe and set aside for a higher purpose: To shine the light of freedom for the world to see.

"...and to the Republic, for which it stands..."

We live in a time when the winds of change are stirring and the balance is tipping.
We must, as free Americans, decide where we stand.

Do we forgo the origins of our nation or do we embrace something that our founding father not only feared but sacrificed of themselves to escape: Tyranny.
If you don't understand all of the fuss about tyranny either choose your favorite search engine and look it up, find a dictionary and dust it off, or stop reading right now because I am done trying to convince people that freedom is something to protect. (...not expect, there is a big difference!)


"...one Nation, under God..."

The only hope that we have as a nation is that the Lord, God Almighty, have mercy on us and embolden us to stand. There is a war waging. You can either acknowledge it or ignore it.
If you choose to ignore it you will surely fall asunder, again you can look it up.
If you choose to acknowledge it, then you have to decide what you must do; what side you are on and what you have to do to defend your family and you country.
It will come down to that, mark my words.

"...indivisible..."

When our country was but a breath, an idea the founding members of the union faced the same hurdles that we face today. Different religions, different factions of the same religion, different creeds, different ideas, different colors of skin...but one thing unified them: the idea of freedom and the willingness to fight, bleed and die for it.
They knew the cost and the rewards to come for the following generations that you and I are a part of.


"...with Liberty and Justice for all!"

Liberty and Justice; there are American servicemen in prison for doing their duty to our nation and probably more to join them.
It is a disgrace that the American people have allowed our nation to come this far into the abyss.

Tell me, where is the liberty and the justice in America if our heroes are jailed and our enemy roams our streets? Where are the brave souls who will not wait for someone else to say 'this is unacceptable'?

The re-making of America is happening before our eyes.
The question that remains is this: Will we re-make it in the image that was set out by our Founding Fathers? Or, will we allow our complacency to rule and hand our country over to thugs?

It, quite simply, is our choice.

I have made my choice. Will you?

My country, ’tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims’ pride,
From every mountainside,
Let freedom ring!

My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills,
Like that above.

Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees,
Sweet freedom’s song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.

Our fathers’ God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom’s holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King.

"The battle, Sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, Sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable; and let it come! I repeat, Sir, let it come!"

"A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader." -- Samuel Adams, 1779
