Goodbye, America

On March 5, 1946, in a speech in Fulton, MO, Winston Churchill stated, "From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an iron curtain has descended across the Continent."

Recently, with the passage of the FISA bill, an iron curtain is descending over America. Churchill went on to say, "The Communist parties ... are seeking everywhere to obtain totalitarian control." Clearly, the neo-Communist parties in America -- known as Republicans and Democrats -- are seeking to obtain totalitarian control over us.

The time has come to discuss a second American Revolution.

Freedom is not lost overnight. Freedom is peeled away, layer by layer. Freedom is dissipated, just slowly enough that most people don't notice the difference.

And freedom, once lost, is extremely difficult to regain. But it is entirely worth the price. We can hope that the price will not be paid in the blood of Americans, with a full-fledged Civil War. But if such a war is to be avoided, we must spread the word.

It is not enough for all of us to agree that our freedom is being destroyed. We must get our American brothers and sisters across the land to agree with us, to become vigilant to further deterioration, and to stand up and fight for freedom. That means you must call, e-mail, and write people you know everywhere and let them know what's really going on. You must be a leader in this second American Revolution -- a leader in the fight for freedom, and against the burgeoning forces of tyranny.

Starting next week, I'll be writing about some specific things we can all do. The time has come to saddle up, like Paul Revere and William Dawes, to ride out and spread the word.

The regulars aren't just coming -- they're here!
