A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take away everything you have.

-Thomas Jefferson

This website is a place for ordinary, frustrated conservatives who want a better understanding of their government. It's also a place for you to get informed and get involved- even in a small way.

Socialism,it appears, is alive and well in our country.

It's time we do something about it.

While we don't have the power to make laws, we have the power to band together and make a difference.

There are small, simple things we can do like writing our congressmen, writing to liberal airwaves, petitioning colleges, canceling subscriptions, choosing charities wisely, and getting informed that can have a big impact if we take these issues seriously.

The most important thing we can do, however, is to become informed so that we can inform others.

Unfortunately, what we don't know CAN hurt us, and more importantly, it will impact our children and future generations to come.

It's time to pay attention to what is going on in Washington DC.

It's time we stop allowing Washington to run our lives.

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague." -Cicero
