Certain Unalienable Rights

I was reading the Declaration of Independence the other day, and I came across this line:

"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE to ALTER or to ABOLISH it, and to institute NEW Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

Now, I'm not sure we're at the point of "abolishing" our Government, as I believe the system of our Government is sound. I have a problem with the people IN our Government. I believe the "alteration" that needs to occur is a "house cleaning", so to speak. There are very few Senators/Representatives that are "good guys" - ones that TRULY represent us, the People. I believe that it is time that we show the wrong doings - according to the US Constitution - that have been committed by the fools in Washington DC. Line upon line, precept upon precept, build a case for the outing of these people that have used our Constitution as a door mat, and have stopped listening to us, and have catered to special interests for far too long.

"NO TAXATION, WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!!!"

Those words ring as true today as they did over 200 years ago. The current state of Governance is becoming more and more tyrannical - more and more like the British Crown in 1776. We cannot let this get out of hand any longer. We must act now. We must let Washington know how we feel. We are overtaxed, and not getting the representation that we are promised. It feels as though we are the proverbial "frog" in the "pot of boiling water". The American People are letting liberties be stolen out from under us one by one, little by little.

I'm not talking about taking up arms against our Government. I'm talking about letting your elected officials know how you feel. Write down how you feel about the current state of our Country. Write down what you think needs to be done. Go door to door and get people to add their signatures to it. Send it to your Congressmen. Send it to your President. DO NOT make this a partisan, Republican vs. Democrat, Liberal vs. Conservative thing. Make this a Freedom vs. Tyranny thing. Tyranny doesn't just reside in blue or red states.

Our unalienable rights are disappearing a little bit at a time. It's time to take them back. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
