Quotes from the Founding Fathers
Author: admin
“As parents, we can have no joy, knowing that this government is not sufficiently lasting to ensure anything which we may bequeath to posterity: And by a plain method of argument, as we are running the next generation into debt, we ought to do the work of it, otherwise we use them meanly and pitifully. In order to discover the line of our duty rightly, we should take our children in our hand, and fix our station a few years farther into life; that eminence will present a prospect, which a few present fears and prejudices conceal from our sight.”
Thomas Paine, Common Sense, 1776
“A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.”
Thomas Jefferson, letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785

Hey, I’d love to submit my email info to you so that I can get all the latest news on the tea party rally in Greeley, but when I tried to click on the “click here to send us your contact info”, it does nothing. Problem on my end or yours? I’d rather not just post my email address here for all to see, so I’ll check back here soon. – Angie
Hi, I’m the admin that set up the site for Brian. He is actually in charge of the content and also has the ability to send emails to any or all registered. I think he’s doing that through a regular email program for now as he probably has more people on that list. I’ll go ahead send him a list of all registered on this site so he can add them. I’ll also forward you his latest emails. Take Care, John
Look forward to Independence day to show Greeley that it is time to rise and not take this taxation without being heard.
