We need more patriotic souls to join the fight. . .


The Crisis
by Thomas Paine
(Dec. 23. 1776)

These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value.              


America is, today, in another gut-wrenching crisis, based on what the president-elect promises he has in store for us. 

Within one hour of taking his oath of office, he intends to pardon many felons who attacked our capitol, killed and seriously injured our police officers, damaged the building and private offices inside, and attempted to overturn the results of the presidential election. The only reason I can see for this terrible event is he will feel some  guilt lifted from his own list of crimes on Jan.  6, 2021. It is so revengeful and so steeped in retribution!

The then-president and now president-elect sat in his private lunch room, watching the insurrection unfold on television for three-and--half hours - while his staff begged him to order his attackers to  stop  the violence.  He ignored everyone - even his family members.

This is the mind of the dictator that we must deal with for four more years! And, he is promising ever more misery for America this time.
He is in the process of filling our government agencies with people of the same flawed characteristics as himself.

As Thomas Paine said, "Tyrrany, like hell, is not easily conquered."
