Live Free or Die?
I am ashamed and outraged, as would be the patriots who pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to fight against tyranny in order to secure freedom for all future Americans. When a state containing less than one half of one percent of the population of the most powerful nation on this deeply troubled planet is granted the unreasonable privilege of having wildly undue influence on the selection of that nation's next leader, and in response to that incredible responsibility less than 40% of those people can be troubled to spend a few minutes logging a vote, and then of those meager 40% that bother to vote, over 96% vote for corporate-bought, willfully-ignorant, philistine, puppet, criminal, fascist, treasonous, tyrannical fools, while not even 4% have the brains enough to vote for an intelligent, honest, compassionate patriot, and then has the gall to claim the label of the "Live Free or Die State," then indeed, may your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!
"Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" --Patrick Henry
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!" --Samuel Adams
Americans are frogs in boiling water
If you put a frog (I think that's the right animal) in a pot of water and gradually start increasing the temperature, the frog will never notice how hot it's getting until the frog has been boiled to death.
Likewise, most Americans don't realize how their individual liberties have been taken away. Well, I'm here to tell you that the pot is reaching the boiling point. We must redouble our efforts to save ourselves and our countrymen. It's not too late to wake up America. This process has just started. The votes are just coming in. The rest of America has a chance to say thank you, Iowa and New Hampshire, you showed us some Patriots are not willing to vote for the lessor of two (or 15) evils, but instead, are willing to stand up and vote for Liberty. We still have momentum. Our best states are still to come. Nevada libertarians - stand up for your rights, Michigan Reagan democrats - remember who showed us the way to Reagan in 1976, South Carolina war veterans - support one of your own. Vote Ron Paul.
sad but true
They should take away the state motto. Truely sickening.
AMEN!
May posterity forget indeed, brother.

Live free... OR die
NH tonight, chose DIE.
News Flash! NH votes for more war and higher taxes.
NH voters today overwhelmingly rejected the notion that 70% of Americans want an end to the Iraq war. In a stark contrast NH voters are prepared to bankrupt themselves by continuing the Iraq war. Strong support for Sen. John McCain and Sen. Hillary Clinton sent a signal to America that we desire to see the 100 year war espoused by former POW John McCain. By real numbers Sen. Clinton will win a head to head contest with McCain and promises to bankrupt Americans through higher taxes and a national healthcare system.
