What is Freedom?

Freedom is the ability of every person to exercise his own free will and conscience rather than be subject to the will of a bureaucrat in the government – ANY government. Our free will is a gift from God – not the government. It cannot be granted or taken away from you by the government. Freedom is exemption from arbitrary restrictions on your civil rights.

Free Speech
The right of free speech does NOT come from the government either! Free speech is an indelible aspect of our humanity. The government cannot require or demand permission, nor can they regulate speech in any way. Big government cannot intimidate speakers or speech of any kind. The government cannot punish speech – no matter what' s in the speech. No one can impose a burden to exercise free speech.

And yet, we see Progressives imposing their will against us every day. Political Correctness is a direct attack on your right of free speech. It is political pressure on individuals or against traditional values. It has been used by Progressives to impose their values on our society. Progressives don't see free speech as a God-given right when they try and eliminate it because they are "offended" or when they just disagree with it. Colleges in the US and Canada disallow free speech when they try and disenfranchise conservative speakers. Case in point, Ann Coulter was just rejected by college protesters in Canada when she was scheduled to speak. Now only was that wrong, but it goes against natural laws as well.

When members of our Congress called Tea Party members "racists," "truthers," "birthers," "teabagger," "Astro Turf," "un-American," "evil-mongers," "Nazis," and "right-Wing Militias", there was an implied threat or effort to infringe on YOUR free speech. When labeled a "racist" or other deleterious name, it is difficult if not impossible to remove that stigma. These examples are also a form of hate speech used to discredit those named.

So when the President tells us to "cool it" and stop criticizing him and his administration, he too is violating our basic freedom of free speech. We will NOT "Shut Up" and we are proud that we have the freedom to speak whatever we want. This is STILL AMERICA! We are disgusted with the attacks against free speech and will NEVER be silenced.

So when Obama says "Shut Up", we will speak louder and more often even if he does not like it! It is our God-given right to do so and he can't stop us. Protest and free speech is the American way.

Obama: Get over it and YOU and your Progressive friends stop whimpering and complaining about it!
