Tea Party
This resulted from a Mom in Alabama asking her high school son to help with a commercial for the Tea Party she was involved in organizing. Boy, does it slam the message home. Very impressive. Here is her note:"I asked Justin if he could help me make a commercial for my group's Tea Party. He sat down at the laptop for about an hour, and then brought this to me and asked, 'is this okay, Mom?' After I finished watching it, my stomach was in my throat. Everyone that I have sent it to has really enjoyed it, so I wanted my friends to see it. I am so proud!" A very powerful video...turn up the sound & sit back...!!!
Selective Identification???

OBAMA, who likes to compare himself to President LINCOLN, apparently cannot read.

HOW DID JEFFERSON KNOW??????

When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe.
The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.
It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world.
I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them
My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.
No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.
Thomas Jefferson said in 1802:
'I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered..'

Wish List
About Me
- Kaparoo
- I am mom to 2 boys (17 and 20), 2 dogs, 3 birds, a gecko, etc. I work full-time and on top of that, I knit like crazy. I have done felting and colorwork but have more recently gotten into stitchwork. Cables, lace, beading, whatever makes it interesting. For my regular projects, lately it's been socks. They are small and portable and offer an endless variety of options. Also, I have large feet so it's hard to find nice socks that fit well. I have also been known to weave baskets, make jewelry, quilt, etc. My favorite color is apparently blue though I like many of the cool colors (bright, bold, as well as pastel). Favorite food (if you can consider it such, would have to be chocolate!
