A Poem by Thomas Paine, LIBERTY TREE
I've alway's loved poetry and the written word because of the beauty of thought, feeling and emotion expressed in a way that no movie script could ever convey.
We all need to be reminded of that tree of liberty of which we all stand united under, trying to escape the weeds entangling....that wish to strangle the roots of which we came.
Many of you probably have read this poem before but I thought that I should add it because of its relevance to the fight for freedom, when… Continue

Al Gore's Global Warming Hoax will Bankrupt Us
Let us begin today with full disclosure: For those who don't know my position on global warming alarmism and its insidious uses, it is that this phenomenon is the greatest hoax in modern times and is being used to achieve things - bad things - quite apart from its ostensible goal of "saving the planet."
Al Gore wanders the spheroid he is determined to save, spouting increasingly inane observations as his bank account grows and his "carbon footprint" becomes ever more Godzilla-like,… Continue

Though I don't subscribe to their beliefs and such....it is becoming quite clear that freedom of speech isn't so free anymore and what happens in the UK eventually makes its way to our shores. They don't even lock up pedophiles and rapists as long as they're locking up these two guys.
