By Howard Pyle.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Not even the self-appointed emperor-god Barack Obama can alienate us from these rights, even if he succeeds temporarily in depriving us of them. They are not a gift from Lord Barry, to be dispensed or withheld at his whim — they belong to us.

The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon.

Now Barack Obama, so much wiser than our first President, finds the Constitution a trifling impediment to his will, something to be brushed aside like an annoying gnat.  Isn’t it wonderful that we have progressed so far from credulous dimwits like Washington?

Or as Abraham Lincoln once put it:

The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field, and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearthstone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.

We can’t let this republic die, murdered by a tyrant.  We just can’t.
