Real Patriots

Real patriots defend the truth, especially when their country is in the wrong. The last time I looked at my history books, the founding fathers were for the rights of the individual, not for the unchecked power of government. From where I'm standing, the so-called leaders in Washington are more akin to the Nazis than they are to those wise men of 1776 and 1787.

Stand up for what is right, not for what is expedient. Stand up for the truth, not for just what is believable to the unread. Stand up in the shoes of the true patriot (looking to the best in his country), not in the shoes of the fear-monger, seeking to solidify his power with your fear.
