Obama Townhall Saturday in Grand Junction, Colo

[Tristan]

Okay. I thought this was about the meetings and I see this. So, now I've got to get involved.
Jake, I understand what you say-but you are missing out on the larger picture.
It is called
FREEDOM.
FREEDOM to make our own choices.
FREEDOM to live our lives the way we want.
FREEDOM to do what we want, when we want, where we want and with whom we want.
-These are our GOD GIVEN RIGHTS that NO MAN can put asunder-
All within the boundaries of the law and common sense, of course.
I would imagine that is why you love it here so much-I doubt that it is simply the geography.
I know the UK picture has been twisted a bit by both sides-nonetheless, the Brits have a lot less freedoms to enjoy. One of our favorite historic figures was a Lord from England-who, although he loved his country, fought and thought his way to a new country, one that would have freedoms he couldn't enjoy in his native land. Then he was stripped of his Lordship and more and left his Love and his riches to live out his years in this new, Great Country with his son, who really turned his back on him because of his loyalty to the Motherland-but that is a different and long story. So you have a high horse to ride, be it right or wrong, the standard was set by Ben over 200 years ago. It is what our Country is based on.
DON'T TREAD ON ME.
Plain and simple. We like making our own decisions, not having some moron in Washington or anywhere else making such serious decisions for us. It's OUR choice, not theirs.
Sniper and the rest of us like and love our freedom and will fight and kill and die for it. And I personally will be the first to punch some idiot in the nose over all this and get the ball rolling.
I think you'd best remember that fact. And unless you are willing to do the same, no matter where you came from, it really would be best to leave.
