The Cockburn Revolution
7 December 2008, Cockburn @ 10:33 am

Having been inspired by the movie and book of the same title, “John Adams”, I began to feel that we have strayed SOOOOOOO far from our founding principals, most notably honest, limited government, individual rights and liberties and opportunity to achieve without fear of reprisal, especially through taxation. Another book by the same author, “1776“, helped bolster that feeling. Folks, we fought the American Revolution because we, as colonists, were having our rights trampled and our every need taxed without representatives to join the debate.

Until the early decades of the 20th century, we held to those principals pretty well. They were beginning to be threatened after the Union victory of the Civil War, in 1865, however, when the Federal government consolidated its strength and usurped the right of the states to decide what course they were to go on. The ONLY good thing that came out of the Civil War besides medical, technological advances, was the freedom of an enslaved people. The rest of the American people began to lose their freedom and liberties. Not, mind you, because freedom was given to former slaves. But, because their States, their homeland, would never again have the right to self-determine.

I don’t know just how or where the Cockburn Revolution will go, but something must happen. As you know, I feel that with the election of Barry Obama, we may as well hand the keys to our Nation back to Mother England. But it goes deeper than Barry. He is just the head of the festering pimple our Federal government has become.

Perhaps the greatest violation of our rights is the Federal income tax. Someone has sent me a film that would make your blood boil. But I suggest that you, as I will, research the points made in the film and not just take it at face value.

In the pages below, I will share information through articles, writings, legal documents and anything else that demonstrate the point that we no longer live in the land of the free. And we haven’t lived in it since 1913 and most definitely since the close of WWII.
