Declaration Of Dependence

The Tea Party could use this as a rallying cry leading up to the 2012 elections.

Excerpt: Such is the decision of these 50 states; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to forsake their freedom for servitude. To defend this decision, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

- The people are no longer capable, or willing, of making educated decisions regarding our own health, welfare, and financial responsibility.

- The people are no longer willing to defend their lives, family, or property from attack by criminal elements in society.

- The people are so terrified of terrorism that they will allow the various government agencies to search their personal information, invade their privacy, while submitting themselves to all manner of indignity in return for a small measure of security.

- The people have forsaken a practical education which would prepare them to be civic minded and productive citizens, instead allowing their minds to be filled with politically correct ideals and views geared towards a global society.

- The people have determined that the needs of society outweigh the needs of the individual and therefore are willing to sacrifice their time and their wealth to benefit society in general.

- The people have forsaken national pride and sovereignty and replaced it with the belief that our country is open to all who deserve a better life.

We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these States united, and of Right cease be Free and Independent States, that they are hereby bound as servants to the government, and that all inherent and unalienable rights are hereby forfeited — And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we meekly surrender our self respect and dignity.
