" The Tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants"........ Quote from Thomas Jefferson, taken from "The birth of a nation", by Arthur M. Schlesinger. I have to ask the question "who are the real Tyrants"? Is it the lowly suicide bomber from a repressive third world nation? Or could it be someone much larger with much more power?
I wish Thomas Jefferson were still alive..... I bet he could tell us.

2010
Wow, it's 2010. What happened to the last 10 years? It seems like Y2K was just yesterday. I wish I knew a way to slow the clock. With everything that's going on in our country maybe slowing time isn't the best idea. A slow, painful death was never very appealing to me...
The socialization of America it seems is the fundamental change president Obama was talking about. How much of the America our forefathers fought and died for will survive? What will we look like in another 10 years? Will American's join together and fight again or will we just turn the other cheek, allowing them to lead us around like an ox with a big fat hook in our noses??
We live in interesting times they say. We may be the last great generation, the next appearing more like a mass of robots surviving only on what little scraps our government throws their way.
Political correctness has raped our nation. Will the day come when we will open our mouths to spew fire and brimestone, not allowing others to control our thoughts and words?
I feel like i'm walking a tightrope..... i'm at the very end and will soon take that leap. That leap to safety and relief. But it's not time yet, I still have a ways to go. I can see it, it's in view. Can I go the distance??
We'll see.
