Defend Our Constitution

A blog to stimulate discussion on how to preserve the foundations of our nation. I believe the Declaration of Independence, Constitution, Bill of Rights and subsequent amendments have given us the best basis of government the world has ever known. I believe our Founding Fathers were inspired men who rose above themselves, faults and all, to create a system and a nation which was greater than the sum of its parts. I want to keep it that way.

Unconstitutional The Movie - How to Act

I saw this film recently and it was very well done. I voted for Bush as the lesser of two evils but I am starting to think they were both equally evil. The rights of free speech, to peaceably assemble, and of protest are being trampled by his administration. Don't take my word for this, see the documentary and make up your own mind.

The Patriot Act has parts which are so anti-American I can't believe it got through Congress. I can only attribute this to a knee-jerk reaction to 911, we need to make our legislators understand that we have had time to think and now realize the Patriot Act needs to be defeated when it is up for renewal. According to the ACLU (I am not a member) 4 states, and over 340 cities/counties have passed resolutions denouncing these sections of the Patriot Act and declining to have their constituents participate.

There are things we can do as regular citizens, I urge you to contact your Congressman/woman and let them know how you fell. To send them a quick, free email use the link below.

I hope you are as concerned about this as I am, and choose to make your voice heard.

I'm concerned about the whole political fear issue as well. we're doing a movie about airport security - which according to those who've participated is a complete charade. I too voted for Bush.....big mistake.
