Democrats and Republicans still don't get it...The American people continue to say it...Obama and
the white house still do not grasp it. "Common Sense" is returning to the land. The people of
America, the masses, are once again taking it upon themselves to do what "politicians" failed to do.
The "People" are watering the Tree of Liberty, yes, that very tree planted in 1776 by Jefferson, Adams
and the rest of the Founding Fathers of this great republic. That very Tree of Liberty, with roots so
deep, that the current elected officials, and those in the white house have attempted to let the soil
run dry. The American people will have none of it. WE SHALL WATER THAT TREE, day in, and day out, most
of the time in opposition to federal government policies. We will water that tree against the ushering in of
attempts to "legalize illegal immigration...We will Water that Tree against tax payer funded abortions, Against Sharia law,
against U.N. Mandates, against socialized health care, against the federal reserve and their policies,
against the gay and lesbian agendas, against Acorn and voter fraud, against voter intimidation and the lack of F.B.I.
enforcements..against untruths in the mass media, against the Tokyo rose network of M.S.N.B.C.
We WILL WATER THAT TREE OF LIBERTY, by speaking out for the Constitution, for the pledge of allegiance, for the unborn,
for the Bill of Rights, for safe schools, for proper education, for the TRUTH.
As Daniel Webster said: "Now fellow citizens,let us not retire from this occasion without a deep and
solemn conviction of the duties which have developed upon us. This lovely land, this glorious liberty,
these benign institutions,the dear purchase of our fathers, ARE OURS, ours to enjoy, ours to preserve, ours to transmit.
Generations past and generations to come hold US RESPONSIBLE for this sacred trust. Our fathers from behind admonish
us, with their ancient paternal voices. Posterity calls out to us, from the bosom of the future. The world itself,
turns hither its solicitous eye, and conjure us to act wisely and faithfully in the relation we sustain."

We can never indeed pay the dept which is upon us, but by virtue, by morality, by religion, by the cultivation
of every good principle and every good habit, we may hope to enjoy the blessing, through our day, and to leave
it unimpaired to our children.
So I ask you, fellow Patriots, fellow citizens, Help water this Tree of Liberty. Do not let Washington D.C.
let the soil run dry as they are attempting to do. 'Do Not submit to the measures of Washington. Do Not consent
that we ourselves should be ground to powder, and our country and its rights trodden down in the dust. I know
we do not mean to submit...WE SHALL NEVER SUBMIT" John Adams.
Let us then bring before us the assembly which is about to decide questions so big about the fate of America.
Let us, as Patriots, open their doors and look upon their deliberations. Let us, as Patriots, be resolved
to let Washington hear are firm toned voices, and know, once and for all, that Common Sense is sweeping this
Nation. That Common Sense is uniting this band of Patriots...THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. If necessary...Through truth we expose those who
lied their way into office and power. Through law, they will be removed.

The law of the land will be certain, if our Constitution be saved.

We have recently voted against a well established liberal progressive democrat lead population that, at times, outnumber those of us who lust for a more pure constitutional government. This period in history needs help from analysts and historians to remind us of what can happen when we disregard our roots.
Thank you Jim for your reminder.

David, This writer is very well aware Thomas Jefferson said with the blood of tyrants and patriots. What this article implies is a time to voice our resentment Before blood needs to be spilled...Look at Jeffersons' whole quote ..".What country can preserve it's liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it's natural manure." ...Thomas Jefferson was not merely speaking of the right to bear arms he was addressing one of the major problems of his time, which was the exceedingly slow dissemination of information. “The people cannot be all, & always well informed.” This is no longer an issue today as we have instant information literally at our fingertips. Our biggest challenge today is to sift through all the misinformation to get to the truth. However we don’t need weapons to do this, we simply need the freedom of the information highway, the perseverance to seek out the truth, and the will to accept the truth when we find it. ...However, in the very end-game the 2nd amendment is there. if needed Jim Kelly

i am all for watering the tree of liberty but speaking out was not how t.j. said the tree needed to be watered. he said it needed to be watered by the blood of tyrants and patriiots. by his statement it shows the writer has as little grasp of the situation and what needs to be done as the politicians do. if t.j. and the other founding fathers had watered the tree as this writer suggests we would still be bowing to king george the 99th. i fully agree with t.j. about how the tree of liberty needs to be watered and say it needs to be done now, to get our message across to not tread on the constitution.
