‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the House

all the Senators were voting, as forced by the Louse;

The amendments were snuck in the bill to ensnare,

In hopes that Americans would not care;

The Congress were nestled all snug in their beds,

While visions of Socialism danced in their heads;

And Pelosi in her ‘kerchief, and Reid in his cap,

Had just smugly laid down their trap,

When out on the mall there arose such a clatter,

they sprang from their beds to see what was the matter.

Away to the cloakroom they flew like a flash,

Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow

Gave the lustre of mid-day to Patriots below,

When, what to their horrified eyes should appear,

But a miniature sleigh, and eight mighty Conservatives to fear,

With a wise ringleader, so lively and quick,

they knew in a moment it must be Glenn Beck.

More rapid than eagles his pundits they came,

And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;

“Now, Hannity! now, Coulter! now, Limbaugh and Levin!

On, Malkin! on Ingraham! on, Gingrich and Palin!

To the top of the rotunda! to the top of the dome!

Now blog away! talk away! Send the traitors home!”

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,

When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky,

So up to the White House the pundits they flew,

With the sleigh full of Tea Partiers, and Glen Beck too.

And then, in a twinkling, Pelosi & Reid heard on the roof

The mocking and laughing of each little spoof.

As they drew in their heads, and were turning around,

Down the chimney Glenn Beck came with a bound.

He was clinging to his Bibles and his guns,

And all ready for the sneaky Liberals to run;

A bundle of Constitutions he had flung on his back,

And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.

His facts how they twinkled! his research how merry!

His chalkboard like roses, his red phone like a cherry!

His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,

And the quickness of his grin was as white as the snow;

The silvery flash of a mic he held tight in his hands,

And Democratic lies flew out to meet his demands,

He had a broad face and a little round belly,

That shook, when he cried like a bowlful of jelly.

He was chubby and plump, a right Patriotic old elf,

And they screeched when they saw him, in spite of themselves;

A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,

Soon gave them to know, the bill should be dead;

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,

He rallied the people; then turned with a jerk,

And laying his finger aside of his nose,

And giving a nod, up the rotunda he rose;

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,

And away they all flew like the shot of a missile.

But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,

We’ll see you in 2010 for the fight of your life!

As adapted & written by Lady Libertas

The time for political correctness is over.  The frauds that run the House of Representatives have just voted to pass the most horrific piece of legislation in the history of the United States of America…and cheered as they did it.

They won the healthcare vote with FIVE votes.  One of them is Joseph Cao – RINO and Junior Congressman.  Step One of shedding Political Correctness is to make sure that the GOP “tent” is no longer welcoming to this Junior Congressman.  Jospeh Cao is Benedict Arnold.  Period.  and his career is over within the GOP.  Period.  We cannot afford mistakes like this in 2010 and either the GOP is on board or they need to be voted out as well.

After a long day and evening of watching C-Span, Lady Libertas allowed a few moments of feeling defeat last night but no more.  We are in the fight for our values, our liberty, our way of life.  The liberal trolls parroted the good cheer of their leadership last night, completely clueless that this will affect them the same as everyone, no matter party affiliation.  Taxes have no care for party affiliation.
As countries around the globe struggle to return right from years of hard left rule, America is sliding towards Socialism at an alarming rate.

This vote was not about healthcare – it was about the takeover of the American government, the expansion of Federal power, the extensive reach of the power brokers in Washington DC and the subjugation of the American people.  Nancy Pelosi and her gang of bully boys do not care about the state of American healthcare; if they did, this would have been an issue much sooner than present day.  What they care about is expansion of their own pork bellies and they have no problem stepping directly on at least half of America to take it.

The vote we witnessed last night was a desperate push by extreme Liberals to inflict their will on this country before they lose control.  FIVE VOTES – certainly not a resounding endorsement for a majority.  Obama has not been the success that they banked on to carry them on waves of victory to a complete takeover of the United States and this country overwhelmingly has no faith in their elected Representatives -  In an October 29, 2009 Rasumussen poll:

Just 15% of voters now give Congress good or excellent ratings, while most (53%) rate the legislature as poor. Those ratings have held relative steady for the past few months but are noticeably worse than those found in May. At that time, 23% gave Congress positive ratings while 44% rated its performance as poor.
Forty-two percent (42%) of voters see most members of Congress as corrupt, the highest level measured in over a year. Thirty-seven percent (37%) say most congressmen are not corrupt, while another 21% are undecided.
Just 15% of voters believe most members of Congress are more interested in helping people than in furthering their own careers. Seventy-six percent (76%) think most congressmen put their own careers first.

As Conservatives, we have been ignored, marginalized or outright derided in the past months.  Obama not only ignores the Conservatives but he and his Administration actively attack Conservative talk show hosts and FOX news and the Tea Party Movement.  There is more divisiveness in this country than ever before.  Obama the Unifier has become the Emperor with No Clothes and we will continue to point that out.  Our rallying points though are strong and we cannot forget New Jersey or Virginia or even New York, where a Conservative running alone only lost by a few points.

The point that Lady Libertas would like to make to Patriots everywhere is WE HAVE ONLY JUST BEGUN.  We have had some  victories and some losses but we cannot lose the will to keep fighting.  The words of James Madison remind us: “The advancement and diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.”

There were 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence and their commitment to the fight for Liberty was astronomical:

Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army; another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor.
Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants, nine were farmers and large plantation owners; men of means, well educated. But they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured.

The only question that remains is this:

Are we willing to make the same commitment that our Founding Fathers made?

Lady Libertas is willing to make that commitment…let the Seeds of Revolution be thrown to the winds to gain foothold in all corners of our great country.  Let the Tyrants and those who would see Liberty be laid low or traded for slavery be put on notice – The Will of the American People is not to be ignored.  We commit to the vision of the Founding Fathers and the preservation of the Constitution of the United States of America.  We commit to the values and ideals that have made our Republic the most powerful in the world: less government, low taxes, free markets, strong national defense, individual freedom and personal responsibility.  We commit to American exceptionalism.  We commit to Action.  From one Patriot to Another – I give YOU my commitment.  Let the Revolution begin…
