One if by land, two if by sea

Old North Church, located in the north end of Boston is the historic site of the famous American story of Paul Revere and the patriots then high tech warning system to inform the colonist troops of the route taken by the British soldiers during the battle of Lexington and Concord.
It was a time of great uncertainty and fear, yet filled with promise and hope. The idea of freedom had taken hold of a fiercely independent people who's desire to determine the coarse of their own lives was greater then the oppressive forces arrayed against them.
Tonight I begin a similar story, and one that countless others are also embarking on to warn my fellow Americans of the route's of the enemy. This time it is not the British Empire, but the incarnate oppressor which took it's place some 200 years ago, a government birthed in nobility and yet in maturity fraught with oppression and amnesia. Governments, no matter how magnificently constructed have one fatal flaw, they are run by people with all the faults and imperfections that exist in each of our hearts, but with a power capable of spreading those imperfections upon it's people with cruelty and ignorance that can only be described as evil.
I wish it was just a matter of calling my fellow citizens to arms by pointing out it's deviations from  freedom and it's violation of the constitutional covenant with it's people.I fear however that warning them is the least of the problems we face. My brethren have fallen asleep and have forgotten their dreams of freedom, and forgotten the sweet fragrance of liberty. They sense all around them the violations of our constitution and the Bill of Rights, but the meaning of such offenses are dulled by decades of consumerism and the exhaustion of a life spent chasing  the imaginings of wealth.
"Whoever loves money never has money enough; 
whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with his income.
 This too is meaningless" Ecclesiastes 5:10
So I begin this blog in an attempt to arouse my fellow citizens from their slumber, to reignite their passion for self determination and remind them of the sweet fragrance of real freedom. to spur them to coordinated action in order to regain their government and reestablish it to the fulfillment our founders intended. I aim to discuss current events from a variety of topics and relate them to the deviation of our founding principles and ideals.
It is my prayer that some how the truth of this argument will still have meaning in an age fraught with lies and deception.
