Today during an on going battle in the senate, our secretary of state signed the UN arms treaty. Every where we look our freedoms are being trampled on. We are taxed to the brink of bankruptcy, we are told where we can and can't carry a firearm to protect ourselves and family’s, we are told what kind of light bulbs and toilets we're to put in our homes, or can't even control what is taught in our schools. The list of rules and regulations go on and on for citizens and businesses alike. While the fight to keep the freedom to control our healthcare continues, the president and secretary of state use this time to push their anti gun motives. They will force us to fight on multiple fronts, so we must pay attention to all branches of government in order to preserve what little freedom we have left.

I am sorry to say the time of relaxing at home and trusting our elected officials is over. It is up to me and you to hold them accountable for their actions. Harry Reid seems to be ignoring the will of the American people. He will attempt to strip the defunding of obamacare out of the house budget bill and send it back with little to no time for them to change it back. Who's playing politics now? I say let the government shut down, if that’s what it takes for the liberals to see how important it is to the American people to dismantle obamacare, then so be it.

Let's put obamacare aside for a moment, and just look at what has happened to this country over the past century. The federal income tax, the dept. of education, dept. of energy, social security, medicare, the list go's on. All of which were put into place because people want less and less responsibility to take care of their own affairs, giving up a little freedom at a time because its convenient and they feel safer. A writer by the name of William Somerset Maugham said it well:

Any nation that thinks more of its ease and comfort than its freedom will soon lose its freedom; and the ironical thing about it is that it will lose its ease and comfort too.
W. Somerset Maugham

I believe the people's eyes are starting to open, the tide is shifting, and small government policy’s are becoming more and more popular. This is our time, I say obamacare is our line in the sand, let's stand up and fight back these oppressive programs. We can win this battle and begin to take back that free country our ancestors once knew, fought and died for.
