I tried to avoid political discussions throughout the campaign. I am, and will always be, a Reagan Republican. I agree with very little rhetoric ever spouted by any Democrat, much less a radical wanna-be Socialist. And while change can be positive, is sometimes even necessary to perpetuate a desired way of life - a rapid misstep in the name of "change" will destroy us.
I still have my Titans (I love you, Jeff Fisher), so the only thing left for me to say is actually plagiarized. I love you, Thomas Jefferson.
"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent."
"Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny."
"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."
"Information is the currency of democracy."
"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
And of course, Ronald Reagan:
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free."
And I weep.
