Security or Liberty?

"They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security." ~ Benjamin Franklin

D o w n s i z e r – D i s p a t c h

As you know, the Senate voted to pass Harry Reid’s boondoggle healthcare bill. You can see how your Senators voted here:http://tinyurl.com/yku2upu

But this isn’t over. There are still differences between the House and Senate healthcare bills that can derail the entire project.

And so we continue the fight. Today, let’s remind Congress that we oppose this healthcare bill because we believe in liberty.https://secure.downsizedc.org/etp/campaigns/114

Merry Christmas!

“And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.”
~ Luke 2: 8-14

manger scene Merry Christmas!

“For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.” ~ John 3: 17-18

Merry Christmas Everyone!

There is nothing better than quotes by our founding fathers. I think you will find this presentation inspiring and thought provoking…

May we never forget that our liberties are a gift from God, and do not come from men in government!

Rand Paul – Obamacare will lead to Rationing…

Nice article on newsmax.com that openly represents Dr. Rand Paul’s views on the Obamacare disaster that could soon be passed in the Senate. It is obvious to anyone who understands the effects of government health care that our health care system will digress and most certainly health procedures will be rationed if this bill is passed.

Of course this health care bill is not about helping those without health insurance…. (You don’t need a 2,000 page bill to provide health insurance to 15 million people)… It is about advancing socialism and increasing the size and scope of the federal government. Unfortunately, the end result of socialism is not equality – but the decimation of the middle & upper class with the people left poor and dependent on the political elite in government.

A lot of common sense in Dr. Paul’s responses. If only we had more of this common sense from our politicians…

Rand Paul, son of Texas Congressman Ron Paul and a Republican candidate for Senate in Kentucky, says Democratic healthcare reform will lead to the rationing of care.

Paul, an ophthalmologist, cited the example of Canada, which has government-run healthcare.

“There are 1 million people waiting for any kind of elective surgery in Canada at any one time,” he told Newsmax.TV’s Ashley Martella.

“Canada is so bad that they have a lottery. … You can sometimes wait one and a half years to see a doctor.”
