It was 1546, Christianity’s lowest hour

when Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses on the Wittenberg Church doors. Now, for many who pay any attention to American politics, it certainly seems like freedom’s lowest hour… thus far. Because lets face it, it’s going to get worse before it gets better. Laws restricting American freedoms will get worse, privacy will become non-existent, and the fate that has befallen our enemy combatants of war will begin to be met out on any who speak out against the government. I don’t write that with the eagerness of a flag-burning liberal. I am a Republican. Once a proud Republican, now somewhat disheartened. I’m no Luther, not brimming with the ideas of one of the greatest men that creation has ever spit out of it’s muddy mouth. I am just a fellow freedom lover who speaks when he should more often listen. But nonetheless stands at Liberty’s door, banging away, hoping his point sticks and that the slumbering one will wake up and answer. Because let’s face it, America isn’t America without Liberty.

Yes, I write Liberty with a capital L. Why? Because in my mind Liberty isn’t an idea, she’s a semi rotund woman with a weak chin.

Will all my posts be so vague without properly addressing any topic? hmmm, what did you ask?

The main focus of my blog is liberty in the U.S. but I will at times deviate and hit off on other subjects.
