It is my belief that as human individuals, we are born into this world with natural rights that are inviolate; Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Property or Happiness which has been expressed eloquently by Thomas Jefferson. Anything less puts us in the status of slaves, indentured servants and farm animals. My impetus for this blog is to serve as the clarion call to others, like minded or not, that our freedom is at stake in a world of increasing collectivism.
I am a big George Carlin fan. The guy was a genius, but a pissed off one. When I moved to Iowa in 2002, there was an GC HBO special and it made me feel at home as I was away from home, he was a NYer and I related. He said if you scratch the surface of any cynic you'd find a disappointed idealist. Amen. Rest well George, we miss ya already and Gary, that bit just reminded me of you and I haven't even met you.

Wow! Thanks. I have not seen that one for years.
I first saw George in concert back in the 1970s. His total lack of respect for anyone infected me to this day. Indeed everyone is full of shit.
The day George died a huge part of me died too.

Right Guy, again thanks.
Re-watch Carlin's rant on voting.
