It was very inspiring to go to Boston this summer and walk the Freedom Trail. I realized again what a blessed country we are for the Forefathers we had. I really wish that our fellow americans would open their eyes and see what the lack of freedom will cost us. Not just in money, but in our liberties.

The wisdom and foresight of the founding fathers is just awesome.

I love many of the quotes attributed to the Founders, and Jefferson is maybe my favorite. I have many from him. Regardless of what many try to say, Jefferson was a devout man, and had a faith in the Lord, his writings well show this. One quote of Jeffersons`, perhaps my favorite, show`s that he knew the country could see judgement from God if we, for too long, ignored Gods` will, and turned away from Him.

Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just: that his justice cannot sleep forever. Thomas Jefferson.

Wise words, form a very wise man. I pray, that as a nation, we heed them.

Great quote by Adams. It`s amazing how insightful all these men were. And today, and for the past several years, these same men would have been mystified at the apathy of a nation. They`d have no understanding of how we, as a people, could sit by and allow a government to run out of control. But I still say, are we simply going to post about our dissatisfaction, or are we going to do somehing to make change?

Obama is leading us down that path if we don't wake up.
