"Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It ever has been and ever will be pursued until it be obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit."

--James Madison, Federalist No. 51, February 8, 1788

We are determined to continue the fight for Liberty dear, sweet, precious Liberty.

Tue. 6/16.
"It is the duty of every good citizen to use all the opportunities which occur to him, for preserving documents relating to the history of our country."

--Thomas Jefferson, letter to Hugh P. Taylor, October 4, 1823

Yes, I agree, but what shall be done when such documents of our birth are prohibited by our educational systems and those of other governments are taught such communism with all its ills?

Wed. 6/17.
"Every child in America should be acquainted with his own country. He should read books that furnish him with ideas that will be useful to him in life and practice. As soon as he opens his lips, he should rehearse the history of his own country."

--Noah Webster, On the Education of Youth in America, 1788

They are censored, and I doubt if their parents even know it. I want to cry.

Thu. 6/18.
"As parents, we can have no joy, knowing that this government is not sufficiently lasting to ensure any thing which we may bequeath to posterity: And by a plain method of argument, as we are running the next generation into debt, we ought to do the work of it, otherwise we use them meanly and pitifully. In order to discover the line of our duty rightly, we should take our children in our hand, and fix our station a few years farther into life; that eminence will present a prospect, which a few present fears and prejudices conceal from our sight."

--Thomas Paine, Common Sense, 1776

EVERYONE READ THIS BOOK! Now Common Sense - by Thomas Paine is on sale for only $7.95.

Fri. 6/19.
"The foundation of national morality must be laid in private families. ... How is it possible that Children can have any just Sense of the sacred Obligations of Morality or Religion if, from their earliest Infancy, they learn their Mothers live in habitual Infidelity to their fathers, and their fathers in as constant Infidelity to their Mothers?"

--John Adams, Diary, June 2, 1778

Would anyone (I dare you) care to argue with me why it is better for a woman to have children without fathers or for homosexuals to be allowed to adopt children? Take your best shot, you will still lose. Why? Is it because I believe they are not capable? No, that is not the reason. The reason being a child needs both a female and a male role model to grow into the moral fabric of society. Are they all the best? Don't ask such insulting questions! No one is the best! In the child's eye is what matters. We adults need to stop being so selfish as to what we WANT and think about what a child NEEDS. There's a big difference most of the time.
