.
Our wealth is within us. It is not found in Fort Knox. It does not rest within the steel vaulted walls of any bank. It cannot be found in stock portfolios, gold certificates, debentures or bonds. That which we commonly view as "wealth’; the gold, the stocks and bonds, the Real Estate holdings, are but transient manifestations of a value that is deeper and more profound than any object found in the material world. They are only expressions of a form of wealth that cannot be found in any mine, any deep well, any fruited plain, any casino, any financial center, printing press, or jeweler’s safe. These "things" are but mere manifestations of that which makes us truly wealthy, and the envy of other men in other countries throughout our young history. They are just fragile, perishable property compared to that which makes us truly wealthy: FREEDOM.



All can be destroyed, stolen or lost...save for one thing, LIBERTY. It is the only thing we have upon which all other wealth follows. It will never be destroyed, unless WE destroy it. It will never be stolen, unless WE forfeit it. It will never be lost, unless WE deliberately blind ourselves to it’s value, or trade it for a deceptive promise of security, to a point that WE no longer recognize it’s comparative value to all other things.



LIBERTY. It is why other men in other lands strive to come here. LIBERTY is what they long for in their secret dreams in those faraway lands. LIBERTY is what gave us Capitalism, Property Rights, and most importantly, Individual Human Rights. Without LIBERTY, and a supreme law, a Constitution, to define that Liberty....we have nothing.



LIBERTY is the quality that defines us as a Nation to all other peoples in this world. LIBERTY is what has made America the "Gold Standard" of humanity. It is what all the others want, who are deprived of it by their own, parochial, provincial standards, customs and rulers. America, itself, is the great College of LIBERTY to where others come to learn of the God-Given miracle that we have inherited from those visionaries we call our Founders. It is our solemn duty to conserve that gift, and to assure our Posterity the Freedom and the prosperity of it’s promise.



America is the Gold Scale of the world. America is the standard by which those other men in those other lands consider their lot in life....and find themselves wanting, truly wanting.

*****************

There is a fire spreading.

It was lit by a Citizen who loves his Country. It was not started to destroy this land, but rather to reclaim it! It was begun, as a BACK-FIRE, to counter an evil that has crept into the soul of this Nation. That evil has gone by many names. Socialism... Progressivism....Fascism... Marxism...

But The Fire of Liberty that burns in the hearts of the majority of our Citizens, is now spreading, like a wildfire, throughout the great, fruited plains of our Nation! There is nothing, now that can extinguish it, save for one thing. That one thing is the bland, tasteless, odorless, and, invisible water of Apathy.

There are forces, evil forces, that are working feverishly to extinguish this precious flame. They have formed their bucket lines, and deployed throughout these great plains, striving to muffle the voices of Liberty that are now growing to such a Mighty Wind as to be likened to a Hurricane.

And the courageous Citizen that has kindled this fire deserves a word of thanks, from all who hold Liberty above Life itself....

THANK YOU!, Mr. Glenn Beck...for being the candle that lit this Mighty Fire!!

May God Bless and Keep you and yours, always.

God Bless America
Your Uncle Sam
