I believe they would think we lost the country back to England, as the government is taking away our rights to free speech with the fairness act (no more opposing views to the government will be allowed). I believe they would think we lost the country back to England given the excessive and unrepresented taxation.

I believe they would now as they did then, stand united, and demand a new form of government, for the people and by the people. They formed a free nation, a democracy that allowed people all the rights they fought for and established. They did not, nor did they have any intention of establishing another socialist country.

I have no doubt at all they would view the current congress & President the same as they viewed the King of England at the time of the revolution. They were and are, our hero's. There actions today would be considered treasonous, however we don't need guns, we don't even need to pass new legislation to get our country back we just need to hold them accountable to the current laws and ethical standards we currently have on record.

I propose the following:
The house ethic's committee will now be staff by citizens, for the people and by the people, and not by other congressman.
It like asking criminals to take the place of the judge and jury - how many criminals would ever be found guilty? None? What would the standard of behavior be? That's right! The standard would fall below what citizens are held to, it would in fact become corrupt and criminal, just exactly what we have going on!
So lets stop the insanity, just as Founding Fathers would, and would want us to!

I am sure they all have rolled over in their graves a few times in the last 200 some odd years. The first task they may take on is to remove the Congress and try them for treason. Secondly, decentralize the federal goverment and place the power back into the colonies/states where they intended it to be to start with. Thirdly, remove the federal reserve. Finally, insure that any person who is a presidential candidate will be verified that they are a natural born citizen of the country through an additional ammendment to the constitution; no exceptions.

No ammendments needed. Just enforce the constitution as it is! Enforce the law. These politicians are all in on whatever is going on. We need a military coup, arrest them all and elect an entirely new government. Just an idea.

They would be shocked and heart broken.

They would probably be bent over a stump puking their brains out.
