Well it has been a crazy day for me and the wife… Our morning started early, and the road seemed like it would never end but we made it to Washington to take part in the Tea Party for healthcare reform.
When I started my career as a musician I swore on a stack of funny-books that I would stay out of the political mess that so many musicians get themselves into.
I was just breaking into the scene when the Dixie Chicks sent their musical career into the gutter by insulting the President of The United States…
I do want to say this: I was born in this land, and I was raised here, and this is my home.
Right now we have some people thinking that we need to do something about current healthcare and while I do agree that what we have right now is not working at its best… The plans we are passing in the house at the time of writing are infringements on Liberty and last time I cracked my history book… Liberty is what makes this country so amazing.
Folks now is the time to make a statement, and now is the time to remind our government who has the final say on things.
It’s time to stand up and hold onto what our founding fathers put in writing!
It’s time to defend our freedom!
As I sit here at the desk in my hotel room a wave of emotions is resting on my shoulders… I have ridden a Metro train for the first time in my life and I have seen historic buildings while walking down streets that seem to lead to so many new and exciting places. Union Station was impressive to say the least and tomorrow our monuments and streets are going to once again ring with the bold passion for freedom, and of life and LIBERTY!
I cannot say how much I desire to raise my future children in a free country with a government once again run by the people and for the people.
This is America! The United States!
This is NOT “The Peoples Republic of America”
The sooner we teach Congress that FACT the sooner we can begin to rebuild a system that truly will be able to go on for generations to come.
I have friends who fought hard to keep this a free country.
Friends who have died in this war we fight today who died trying to defend freedom.
We cannot let those people fight and die for nothing.
Get out there and show your American Pride!
