Freedom's Cost is No Compromise
On America's Founding Principles
On the truth
For Freedom
We believe in the greatness of the United States of America.
We believe God gave us freedom and liberty through the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.
We believe that life is the first inalienable right. That families by God's design make strong societies, and Christianity brings true freedom.
We believe in the culture of an armed society that is well trained and competent. That society protects all of us and keeps our freedom and liberty.

Son of the Republic!
Today is President George Washington's Birthday.
In 1795, he gave his renowned National Thanksgiving Proclamation which declared the 19th of February as the day. Quote,"Our duty as a people with devout reverence and affectionate gratitude, is to acknowledge our many and great obligations to Almighty God, and implore Him to continue and confirm the blessings we experienced."

From our neighbors at The Westerner. Yes it is right to be irritated with the statesmen who trifle with the law of our land!

The Law Of The Land from "Citizen's Rule Book"
The general misconception is that any statute passed by legislators bearing the appearance of law constitutes the law of the land. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land, and any statute, to be valid, must be in agreement. It is impossible for a law which violates the Constitution to be valid. This is succinctly stated as follows:
"All laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null and void."
Marbury vs. Madison, 5 US (2 Cranch) 137, 174, 176, (1803)
"Where rights secured by the Constitution are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation which would abrogate them."
Miranda vs. Arizona, 384 US 436 p. 491.
"An unconstitutional act is not law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation, as inoperative as though it had never been passed."
Norton vs. Shelby County 118 US 425 p. 442
The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and name of law, is in reality no law, but is wholly void, and ineffective for any purpose; since unconstitutionality dates from the time of its enactment, and not merely from the date of the decision so branding it.
"No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law and no courts are bound to enforce it."

Honestly, what good is voting?
I recently ran across this article and it struck a chord with me. Normally I would be deterred by the crass nature and rough treatment of the subjects by the author. I apologize if you are offended by it.
Last week I was listening to an NPR program about getting out the vote, and how difficult it is to get young people to engage. We're talking about a generation more connected and with more access to information resources than ever before. News travels quickly across Twitter and Facebook, and many kids are able to keep up with a dizzying number of "Indy artists", yet a huge number of them can't name the vice-president.

As a young person, I know that most of my peers are completely uninformed and un-involved with current politics. Given the opportunity however they will express outrage about the politics surrounding so-called reproductive rights, healthcare legislation, or voter id. These people can rarely name a candidate outside of a presidential election.
It's obvious top me why, but what I wonder is why should they? Why is it so important that they vote? It's an act of minimum commitment, requires no prior knowledge, and is as Kevin Williamson states, "power without responsibility". If a college student is too intellectually challenged to get himself registered, and to a poll without being prodded and begged to do so, should they really be casting a vote at all? Is this the participation we want from young people?
Many would argue that these questions are regressive, that it's important that all people have a voice, but I'm not sure I agree anymore. The youth should not be encouraged to vote unless they are first educated and become involved in process in some more meaningful way. The act of voting alone implies no real participation or awareness. An uniformed vote is not better than no vote at all.

Christian's Have A Duty
"Oh bless our God, you peoples! And make the voice of His praise to be heard, Who keeps our soul among the living, And does not allow or feet to be moved." Psalm 66:8-9
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Matt 28:19-20
Christians have been convinced into thinking that we are to be simply silent sweethearts in our relationship to the world, especially in the civic arena. We have forgotten that while we are to be submissive to governing authorities, We the People are the governing authority in America, and what we decide to accept, endorse, support, tolerate, or silently allow will be what we end up with. Our system of self government requires that we speak out and be heard. And it is our faith that should prompt us, standing up for our King, to make necessary loud noises to affect and impact change. Our culture that we complain so much about is in our hands, it is our responsibility, our "trust" or "talent" if you will, given to us by God. We have the ability, the voice, and the liberty to make the necessary changes in our culture. We should be doing it in mass numbers and if we don't we are consenting to a Godless culture that our posterity will be immersed in and it will difficult if not impossible to reverse without extremely painful struggles.
Our founders established a government of the people by the people, and a nation upon a united belief in God! May we once again learn true history! It would be very wise of us to heed the warning of George Washington in his farewell address:
"And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds....reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."
As immorality increases in our society, the decline of the Church increases, and the prospects for conversions to Christ grow fewer and fewer every day.
