Anyone verify this? No surprise if so. TGIF!

This is what we must do if we truly honor our fallen or our celebrations and patriotic words mean nothing.

How can I write my thoughts of gratitude for their sacrifice when I cannot see through my tears? How can I express my feelings of both sadness and deep gratitude that will somehow be worthy of thou…

"Remember your grandparent's or great-grandparent's weird habits? Saving 'tin foil'? Keeping supplies of all sorts of things? Keeping old tools and cars and fixing them rather than buying new? Telling you constantly to wash your hands and cover your mouth when you cough? Keeping cash hidden under the mattress? Growing their own garden when they could just as easily buy from the store? [ 774 more words ]

What would our grand-parents do? Do that. We need to return to Grandma’s Victory Garden. We need to return to faith, to family, to innovation, to invention, to hard work, to strong character.…

Everything about collectivism in all its forms, and those forms sold more often -- like Socialism in Cuba and elsewhere -- is a lie. It is based on a lie--that giving up your natural rights to a centrally planned government that plunders your property and coerces your every behavior, is advantageous 'for the people', for the 'greater good', for 'social justice'. It is not. It is hell. And if you are a teacher or politician that is selling this lie to our children and to America, you deserve that hell, yourself. Stop lying to our children. Tell the truth. It is simple criminality to steal from some to give to another. All forms of collectivism being sold to America today, 'Super Tuesday', are lies that will destroy, kill, plunder, and maim our children. Forget ourselves, we should know better and stop it by any means. But, if you condemn our children to this hell by your very lies, you deserve the wrath of the American patriot. And, if you continue on, you can count on it." DM Chaney "Thoughts on LIberty" (Super Tuesday Lies)

"A society that enriches itself in liberty and then does not preserve liberty for all is the greatest abuser of its own children for they and future generations will live in serfdom and tyranny." DM Chaney "Thoughts on Liberty"

"Given humanity and its natural tendencies towards evil, the self governance of free societies cannot ever be entrusted completely to political parties or their operatives. The more powerful these parties become the more they are subject to manipulation and control by those powerful enough to do so, towards nefarious ends--most dangerous being institutionalized plunder and coercion that eventually moves towards complete tyranny. Therefore, the only true lightening rod of liberty in any society is the aggregate individual character of that society that is able to, regardless a political party's alignment with same, or not, see truth, right, and the state of liberty with regards to any given issue and at any given time. As such, it is the individual, not a political party or politicians, that is responsible to, first, understand the principles of free societies, second, know their role in restoring and sustaining individual liberty, and, third and most importantly, act daily to watch and confront elected officials and unelected bureaucrats who are charged with the duties of limited self-government. To the degree individuals in any society are not able to and choose not to fulfill these duties, to that same degree liberty is threatened until it is too late and the inevitable end of this apathy and disregard is realized--tyranny by the few, over the many. Carry on." DM Chaney "Thoughts on Liberty"

"When the Pope gives up the wealth of the Vatican and the ultra wealthy and banking elite give up their trillions for the 'greater good', and not just to foundations they control while calling it charity but to the people they say they so care for and champion, we'll know they seriously believe that capitalism is evil and collectivism is good. Until then, we know their ruse--'Sorry, serfs, we'll leverage our own liberty, private property ownership, and the free exchange of it for our own gain, but call it evil if you attempt to do the same.'" DM Chaney "Thoughts on Liberty"

"The most biased, bigoted, and tyrannical institution is the State. For one law enacted by the State that unnecessarily restricts liberty and self-determination of all, is unfairly, unjustly, and intolerantly against all. Yet, many demand that the State protect them from the opinions, perceptions, words, and actions of others, and by doing so, every time this is done, increasingly accept the State as the suppressor of all. In reality, a society, and the individuals who make up its population, that cannot get along without tyrannical intervention by the State, is a society that must, by definition, become enslaved to the State."

"There is no surer way to destroy the character of a society than to promise them that the 'government' can take care of their needs and wants with the spoils of plunder from that society's own producers. After several generations of this institutionalized plunder and the rise of a societal normalization of plunder and coercion, a society self-destructs economically, morally, and socially, and, as a result, it cannot remain free. It is primed and ready for serfdom and tyranny which always lies in wait ready to devour the soulless." DM Chaney "Thoughts on Liberty"

We need freedom-makers, not law-makers.

It would be one thing if the citizens of our country absolutely understood that essential liberties were off limits–untouchable. Then, we would in our various political parties be debating wi…
