Fedzilla--the federal beast

Happy Upside-down Day, America

As the stunned and defeated British army marched out of Yorktown, their band appropriately played the song "A World Turned Upside Down."

Our forefathers pledged their lives and fortunes to fight and defeat the world's mightiest army and give birth to America. Our victory over King George was the greatest military upset in the annals of human history. George Washington believed our amazing victory was a result of divine providence.

The dream of limited government, personal freedom and liberty, rugged individualism, and self-sufficiency that our forefathers fought and died for is rapidly disappearing in 2009. It is once again a world turned upside down.

Our federal government is turning into the very type of heavy-handed, unaccountable, and disrespectful government our forefathers despised, fought against, and warned us to avoid. Too few Americans know and appreciate this critically important piece of American history. Shame on them.

Instead of heeding the warnings of our forefathers, we have embraced big government and both political parties have been more than happy to give it to us over the past 45 years, thereby making us more dependent on Fedzilla--the federal beast with a voracious appetite for our tax dollars, and intentionally creating dependency and control. We are once again becoming subjects, not citizens.

There is more of ted's commentary if you click the link at the beginning of the quote...

This man is something else!! Everything he says I support & believe every American needs to hear what he has to say. This, of course, is not his first open commentary on the US government. And, I am sure, will not be his last.

I posted this because, as I said, I think it is important. Plus, a friend sent it to me in an email today. I felt it to be strong enough to want to share it here in ATS.

Hell, let's elect Ted Nugent for President!!!!!

I second that. Ted Nugent for President!

He has great points. They only had about 1/3 of the people for the revolution and we only need 1/3 to stand up to big brother now.
