Founders' Daily Quote(s): 6/28/10--7/2/10

Monday, June 28, 2010.
"The foundation on which all [constitutions] are built is the natural equality of man, the denial of every preeminence but that annexed to legal office, and particularly the denial of a preeminence by birth." --Thomas Jefferson, letter to George Washington, 1784

Tue. 6/29.
"I rejoice in a belief that intellectual light will spring up in the dark corners of the earth; that freedom of enquiry will produce liberality of conduct; that mankind will reverse the absurd position that the many were, made for the few; and that they will not continue slaves in one part of the globe, when they can become freemen in another." --George Washington, draft of First Inaugural Address, 1789

Do you still believe his name should be removed history?

Wed. 6/30.
"Equal laws protecting equal rights; the best guarantee of loyalty and love of country." --James Madison, letter to Jacob de la Motta, 1820

Only if your president can see past his own skin color...

"Our unalterable resolution would be to be free. They have attempted to subdue us by force, but God be praised! in vain. Their arts may be more dangerous then their arms. Let us then renounce all treaty with them upon any score but that of total separation, and under God trust our cause to our swords." --Samuel Adams, letter to James Warren, 1776

AMEN! Why can't I find a man with such wisdom? Women's Lib, I hate you!

Fri. 7/2.
"[T]he hour is fast approaching, on which the Honor and Success of this army, and the safety of our bleeding Country depend. Remember officers and Soldiers, that you are Freemen, fighting for the blessings of Liberty -- that slavery will be your portion, and that of your posterity, if you do not acquit yourselves like men." --George Washington, General Orders, 1776

The cost of winning or losing. Hey Obama, why don't you learn from these Heroes before you become a quitter?
