The “Cause” for  independence struck a deep chord in many a colonists heart;
it was time to break away from the imperialist British king, begin a fresh start!

General Washington knew how to tap the well of patriotism, he was a born leader;
Washington commanded the American Revolution, freedom his righteous pleader!

Political indifference in America was a treasonable behavior, a contemptible act;
liberty loving people were willing to risk their lives for the Spirit of “76 pact!

The Continental Army was comprised of untrained recruits ready to fight and die;
Minutemen ready at a moments notice to augment the militia and multiply!

Washington believed in the sacredness of “The Cause,” with God by his side;
the war would be won with the help of Divine Providence, his heavenly guide!

Great Britain’s strategy was “top down” including a well trained militia;
an immense Navy ready to invade with their available floating flotilla!

Americas uncommon approach was from the “bottom up” based on popular consent;
“We the People” and fledgling Republic were determined to win and not to relent!

The American “bottom up” strategy with its grassroots efforts worked well;
organizational skills, tenacity and the will to win, all qualities difficult to dispel!

Neither illness, lack of weapons nor shoddy conditions could quell the patriotic tide;
citizens willing to sacrifice their fortunes, their sacred honor and even their own hide!

General Washington prepared to face death rather than suffer dishonorable defeat;
he was the epitome of an officer and a gentleman who would never settle for retreat!

The Battle of Long Island proved that God’s divine assistance was fast at work;
winds, river currents and fog helped Washington’s militia escape, a miraculous perk!

After a near-miss escape across the East river, Washington’s army was dazed;
the militia was sick, emaciated and demoralized, but their faith went unscathed!

The war entered a new phase with renewed courage and determined discipline;
the Continental Congress committed its support to help Washington’s militiamen!

A final version of the Declaration of Independence was ready to sign on July fourth;
the Continental Congress and Army were one, hereinafter and henceforth!

Loyalty to the the “Cause” trumped truth, the press cast an optimistic spin;
few Americans were aware their young brave soldiers were taking it on the chin!

A defensive strategy was developed that entailed frequent skirmishes and bouts;
daily encounters helped train the troops, develop confidence, eliminate any doubts!

American independence was felt to be foreordained, the underlying cause due;
resolute troops forged ahead with certainty, as their trust in God’s grace grew!

The “Cause” persisted for eight long years, eventually leading to a victorious win;
America’s independence won with courage and determination, by our patriotic kin!

On July 4,1776, the Declaration of Independence was signed, a Republic was born;
a government based on the consent of the governed, citizens leading the reform!

Power flowed from the people to its government, leaders were led by popular vote;
politicians legislated honestly and responsibly, careful not to self- promote!

There was a patriotic obligation for citizens to be educated and informed at all times;
to keep a watchful eye, make sure public servants did not commit treasonous crimes!

America is once again faced with fighting for the same freedoms it long ago won;
rogue politicians are ignoring the Constitution, a tyrannical government has begun!

This is an historic moment in time, one that will forever impact future generations;
Americans must break the government control and seek true emancipation!

“If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led,
like sheep to the slaughter,” said Washington, his wise advise full of dread!

The time is right to heed Washington’s wise warning and rekindle the “Cause”
put an end to coercive “top down” government tactics, there is no time to pause!

Citizens have a responsibility to uphold Americas Constitution and laws therein;
to lose freedoms ordained by God would be the nations downfall and a tragic sin!

Millions of soldiers have answered the brave call to defend Americas turf;
courageous troops willing to die because they know what freedom is worth!

It is time for citizens to fight for freedom as well, for the sake of future generations;
it is time to stop listening to the Marxist Obama regime and his fascist corporations!

It is time for every concerned American to get out and vote for real change;
elect those who support the “Cause,” shake up Capitol Hill and rearrange!

It is time to stop listening to politicians and their lawless intimidating allegations;
it is time to confront their deceitful lies, to prosecute and ask for their terminations!

It is time to remember America was founded on Judeo-Christian Commandments;
founded by God and not by some hedonistic paganistic fairytale enchantments!

It is time to heed the daily dire warnings and join the fight for liberty and justice for all;
follow our forefathers lead, understand it is our duty to heed the patriotic call!

It is time to pray for the brave soldiers and leaders who are fighting for Americas soul;
bless them as they fulfill their destiny for humanity, their divine and heavenly role!

The Amazing Grace of the July Fourth Cause….

……………………………how sweet the sound!
We were once was lost, but now we are found!
We were once blind, but now we can see!
May the Lord have mercy on both you and on me!

“Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16

Happy July Fourth!

Please enjoy this patriotic rendition of AMAZING GRACE by George Fenton!

The Judeo-Christian family built America, made it a remarkable nation;

government benefited from its hard working and prosperous population!

Middle America reaped what it sowed, the American Dream was the real deal;

achieved by dedication to country, family and conspicuous religious zeal!

Fathers were the breadwinners and bore the responsibility for their offspring;

they fought wars, fixed cars, hunted, they could do just about anything!

Fathers demanded and were given respect, led their little ones to God;

disciplined with a firm hand and when needed used the feared rod!

Fathers organized trips to the lake, taught kids how to swim and skip rocks; 

instructed them the best way to learn is through the school of hard knocks!

Fathers piled their brood into the station wagon to get an ice cream cone;

packed with kids and dogs, the car knew the way, its route was well-known!

In the winter fathers took their family skiing and sledding down the local hill;

he kissed away the tears if there happened to be an unfortunate spill!

At night father always had his chair, his throne from which he watched TV;

it was fathers quiet time, children were warned not to fight and disagree!

At dinner, fathers held court at the table, led the prayer and animated conversation;

it was a time to offer sage advise, lay the groundwork for a healthy foundation!

Fathers were the comforters, protectors, main income producers and lovers;

the pressures of life were on his shoulders and he provided many buffers!

Most important of all, fathers were the superb in-house role models for their sons;

insuring another generation of masculine boys who spurned dolls and preferred guns!

When the government decided it could do a better job, all good things came to an end;

bureaucratic handouts became the meal ticket, fatherless homes the ominous trend!

Now big government is the head of the home, the beleaguered tax payer foots the bill;

single mothers get free food and housing, lazy men keep adding to the baby mill!

Children are brought up with no role models, no ambition and no good reason to strive;

creating a vicious cycle of dependent generations who do not care if they thrive!

 Why is the government so interested in how couples handle their own private affairs;

government makes cold decisions based on polls, parents base theirs on prayers!

Why is the government so focused on diminishing the value of Godly motherhood?

Why is a full time mother or homeschooler no longer an exemplary livelihood?

Feminists are now parrots for the government, demanding equal rights with men;

liberal women who have been led into socialist bondage, used again and again!

Married liberal feminists have taken command of the family, dictating the rules,

their lily-livered husbands follow them around like a besotted pack of mules!

This minority of bossy opinionated women do not represent the stellar American mom;

classy conservative women who stay at home or work, both with dignified aplomb!

Conservative women prefer men who are not afraid to embrace their masculinity;

men who relieve troublesome burdens so women can enjoy their alluring femininity!

Conservative women enjoy equal rights without having to suck up to politicians;

without compromising their sexuality and time-honored God based traditions!

Government paid feminists promote and defend Planned Parenthood, hotbeds of evil;

abstaining from sex and the miracle of childbirth is just so unfashionable and medieval!

So let the liberal feminists have all the abortions and free birth control they would like;

conservatives can be relieved that they will not procreate, create another liberal tyke!

The eventual extinction of liberal feminists would be like eradicating a diseased vulture;

it would be a beneficial elimination in the food chain to preserve Americas culture!

So for those feminists who desire equal treatment, Happy Fathers Day to you too;

go fill the cooler with beer and flip those burgers and dogs on the barbecue!

While liberal women do that, conservative women will relax and drink some bubbly;

while in the arms of men who have no desire to be with a woman who is not cuddly!

Happy Fathers Day to our conservative men, there is hope for your paternal survival;

liberal feminists are rare birds facing extinction, so go celebrate your fatherhood revival!

Gods divine word and politics were indivisible when America was first born;

founding fathers read and recited the bible until the pages were ripped and torn!

Gods inherent natural rights helped form the Constitution of the United States;

his unalienable rights are still the core of freedom, one of its preeminent traits!

Is it possible to steal freedom, can a thief accomplish that by being smart;

diminishing Gods importance in America would be a great place to start!

Obama offered voters hope and change, his campaign for transformation;

hope to create a class of people who would succumb to despotic domination!                                        

In Obamas world daily discourse emanates from clever phrases meant to entrap;

Saul Alinsky type euphemisms used to gloss over words that might get a bad rap!

Obamas pursues transformation like a spoiled indignant child, conform or else;

using the IRS like a whipping boy to intimidate the religious and tax their wealth!

Planned Parenthood is another tool used to meet Obamas transformative objective;

making abortion an acceptable part of American culture, death the new elective!

Obamas “war on women” slogan has thrown liberal feminists into a “choice” tizzy;

Obama the pompous political pimp makes sure his submissive women are kept busy!

Universities have long been fertile grounds for educators to spew socialist doctrine;

Obamas “Common Core” educates kindergartners on up, exposing them to liberal toxin!

Cultural institutions, the media and Hollywood all work overtime to corrupt souls;

an indoctrination of progressivism that twists the truth to accomplish the end goals!                   

Gays are allowed in the military, but God does not have a dignified rightful place;

gay marriage is widely applauded, but Christian home schoolers are often debased!

Democrats dared for the first time ever to snub God at their National Convention;

their Good Samaritan clothing came off, exposing their irreligious dimension!

These collective salvation do-gooders feel individuals cannot be saved on their own;

expecting group mercy when in front of God, even for a murderer they cannot disown!

The government stronghold knows that religious fervor and its resulting morality is a foe;

keeping public order by using the DHS police is a better way to maintain the status quo!

Government programs are intentionally set up to anesthetize its citizens to sleep;

free food, medical and housing makes people lazy with no yearning to reap!

An increasingly comatose public lives off handouts from the tax payer store;

shoo-ins to vote Democratic, bus them in and return them home to snore!

Charity in the wake of tragedy is now another opportunity to take advantage;

every crisis provides a window of opportunity to profit and mismanage!

Secular liberals use earthly goods as their false idols that change with the tide;

allegiance to a belief system based on self-satisfaction and egotistical pride!

Christians are now labeled as far right terrorists, humoring the atheist liberal base;

choosing to ignore Islamic Jihadists who are flagrantly on the terrorist database!

Americas religious values are being drained into the cesspool of government decay;

sucked into the disposal of distain, Gods preeminence lessened and betrayed!

But, what does it matter that society has eliminated God from daily conversation?

What does it matter that freedom of religious speech is facing termination?

What does it matter that material goods are being used for spiritual suffocation?  

What does it matter that Americas culture is undergoing drastic transformation? 

What does it matter that Christianity is suffering from constant vindictive provocation?   

What does it matter that faith in the military is under attack and gross intimidation?

What does it matter that Christians do not get out and vote to voice their indignation?

What does it matter that Christians are not fighting for the next vulnerable generation?

It matters because theres a dangerous fine line between those questions and evil itself;

on the other side of those questions lurks Lucifer ready to consume your very own self!

It matters because God expects a lot from his faithful, to fight darkness and win;

James 4:17; Anyone who knows the good he ought to do and doesn’t do it, sins.

Christians need to safeguard their heavenly father, do not let his adversaries succeed;

Gods intentions are based on love, big governments intentions on power and greed!

God planted his seed of freedom and independent thought,

in a land where his wise scripture would be widely learned and taught!

It was the birth of America, a nation founded by God and destined to lead,

where its God-fearing citizens could be free and perform noble deeds!

War broke out and a Republic was born, destined for new heights;

a constitution was then drafted, based on Gods unalienable rights!

War has continued throughout the years, a self-preservation act;

to protect America against those wanting to destroy its sacred tract!

Memorial Day is a national holiday, a time set aside to honor our brave;

men and women who sacrificed their lives and went to their untimely grave!

It is a day for flags to fly at half mast and for church steeple bells to ring;

for choirs and concerts to express their utmost appreciation and sing!

Parades with marching bands celebrate on crowded neighborhood streets;

recognizing the lives of heroes who performed many distinguished feats!

Cookouts bring familys together exemplifying freedoms shared by all;

free to do as they please, read a book of choice, party or play ball!

Visiting a cemetery, placing flowers at the graves of those who have died,

makes the engraved headstones feel less cold, so much more glorified!

On Memorial Day, a sorrowful aching beats within the surviving familys hearts;

their precious sons and daughters remain in their souls, never to depart!

America will forever be indebted to the soldiers who have given their lives,

so citizens can lead a life full of opportunity, rewarding those who strive!

Now America faces a homegrown threat, one against God, Americas divine weapon;

aided by a government being hustled into the cunning hands of evil and deception!

This is a battle that Americans must fight here at home, praying that God be our shield;

defending soldiers who are denied their religious rights from a military that will not yield!

Troops can no longer utter the Lords name out loud, their protective spiritual force;

a dangerous trend has emerged, God openly shunned from public discourse!                  

The Pentagon no longer reflects a soldiers ideals, the framework that made us great;

love of God, country and family, our very culture, is being abandoned like deadweight!

This war against evil can be won, but Americans must head to the polls in droves;

in 2014 declare an election war against Capitol Hill to change the political controls!

Those who do not represent “we the people” must pack their bags and get out;

Americans will persevere in cleaning up the corruption, firmly demonstrate their clout!

Future generations are depending on every patriot to defend Americas inherent rights;

citizens who recognize Americas unique exceptionalism and are determined to fight!  

On Memorial Day as we pray for our fallen soldiers, speak to them about our intention;

that resolute Americans intend to win this war, helped by Gods divine intervention!

Americans will exalt God, glorify his name, fight for freedom and their religious rights;

make our soldiers in heaven feel proud and blessed that they paid the ultimate price!

Uncle Sam has been a symbolic image of national identity since the war of 1812,

when a man nicknamed Uncle Sam stamped “US” onto oak barrels on his shelves.

His meat packed barrels went to supply the troops, one of their daily rations in the war;

emblematic of our government “US” made Uncle Sam’s initials and name iconic lore!

Uncle Sam became the symbol for Americas government, changing his looks on cue;

the Civil War saw Uncle Sams face resemble that of Lincolns, a beard was added too!

Tall and lanky with top hat, striped pants, a swallow-tailed coat and red vest,

Uncle Sam was a patriotic figure beaming with dignity from his caricature breast! 

The last rendering of Uncle Sam was for the “I Want You Poster” by J.M. Flagg;

to boost recruitment for World War I, help put enrollment in the government bag!

In World War II the Germans called America Samland and again we used that poster;

“I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy was the patriotic song, pride peaked like a roller coaster!

Since then, America has come a long way baby, its government has changed a lot!

Its high time to reinvent Uncle Sams image for what he is now and for what he is not!

Statesmanlike Uncle Sam disappeared long ago, we need to update that version;

trade his svelte navy jacket for a trench coat to cover-up his progressive perversion!

Sams trench coat should be bright red, the color of socialism, the color of his flag; 

his arm tattooed with a hammer and sickle so his communist friends can brag!

The red bow tie must be replaced with an effeminate pink silk scarf, good for any storm;

Sams climate change gurus cannot decide whether we are going to be cold or be warm!

Lets change his top hat to a metal helmet with numerous antennas rising from the top;

spying on Americans is Sams top priority, he prides himself in being a sly sinister cop!

One of the antennas must shoot up very high, much higher than all the rest;

dedicated to surveillance of the press, the ultimate freedom of speech theft!

A James Bond, Sam will never be, 007 works for the betterment of his close allies;

Sam spurns foreign friends, but cowers to Islamic terrorists, permitting their rise!

Its time to adjust Uncle Sam’s staunch upright stature, slump him over in a large bow;

its the new conciliatory gesture the president makes in front of brutal dictators now!

Modern-day Sam should wear large dark shades to cover his deceptive shifty glances;

shut out any possible radiant light from God that might curtail the devils advances!

The long white beard must go, replace it with a bandana to conceal Sams crooked lips;

unprompted speeches sometimes divulge secrets, time to cover up his subversive slips!

Let’s update Sam, show him with a stash of ammo, an AK-47 assault rifle and grenade;

he’s waiting for Americans to be unarmed, defenseless for his DHS Hitleresque brigade! 

Uncle Sams finger has always pointed toward his citizens, he needs to redirect his aim;

Sams government is mired in lies, time to point the finger at himself, take some blame!

Greedy Sam should put a gold ring on that finger proclaiming his fondness for addiction;

a lucky horseshoe ring for a gambler who taxes to support his debt, a severe affliction!

Sams new elite designer shirt should be patterned with hundreds of green dollar signs;

signifying the trillions of debt now burdening America, putting it in a cataclysmic bind!

Sam deviously uses the IRS to target church groups, change their religious status;

smearing, auditing, taxing foes, making sure they do not receive anything gratis!

The old Uncle Sam used to think power meant the power of God, faith, truth, hope;

Sam’s ruthless power now is akin to abuse, his bullying enormously wide in scope!

Sams recurring verbal attacks are more befitting of a tyrannical dictator type of man;

his face should now resemble Vladimir Lenin who adopted a Marxist revolutionary plan!

Uncle Sam has squashed religious freedom in Americas military, a scary warning sign;

that America’s First Amendment right of religious freedom is rapidly on the decline!

Sam demoralizes our military; Marines ordered to hold umbrellas for Obama in the rain;

put Mary Poppins and her umbrella with Sam, a repulsive reminder of his insolent reign!

Is Sam a coward or barbarian, hiding when people call for help, leaving them to die?

Seal Team Six and Benghazi Americans found out the hard way, coldly left high and dry!

A shameful Uncle Sam who does not have the guts to fight for Americans has no honor;

his new image should depict him wearing a yellow flashing badge that blinks ‘Dishonor!”

Its time to drop Uncle Sams striped drawers, perhaps he will feel and learn humility;

humbling his despotic spirit would give all Americans some peace and tranquility!

The final fix for this Uncle Sam poster is to rename it “Big Brother Betrayer Wants You!

Use disloyal Sam like he used us and educate Americans who do not have a clue!

Seal Team Six raided Usama bin Laden’s compound in Pakistan aiming to kill;

Navy heroes whose courage made America so proud, an awe-inspiring drill!

Ninety-three days later in Afghanistan these same elites took a nighttime helicopter ride,

in a CH-47 Chinook not set-up for battle with an enemy that does more than just chide!

Seal Team Six and twenty-two other military men were flown to Tangi Valley, a hot zone;

Extortion17 was without escort, air cover and suppressive fire, they were sent in alone! 

A rocket propelled grenade hit the old ill-equipped chopper as it attempted to land;

our warriors set up like sitting ducks without support, blown up on enemy sand!

Bagram Air base held a ramp ceremony before returning our dead men to the States;

after a brief prayer an Iman preached Allahs words, bedeviled cursed words of hate!

That Iman prayed over the charred remains of our brave young sons who tragically fell;

praising Allah and despicably condemning our revered American boys to a blazing hell!

These Seals who killed the founder of Al-Qaeda in the fight against terrorism, to protect;

had their flag draped coffins appallingly desecrated in order to be politically correct!

This act of betrayal proves that some of our top brass have been infected with evil;

the Muslim Brotherhood is defiling our military and striving for an Islamic upheaval!

Remember how Obama wanted to transform our nation, his narcissistic cocky goal;

his idea of transformation is to allow Islamic entities to push our freedom into a hole.                                                                                                            

Counterterrorism is in the hands of CIA Director John Brennan, a Muslim convert worm;

who says terrorist attacks on the USA should not be described by using an Islamic term! 

Why did Biden and Obama leak the classified secret that Seals took out bin Laden;

making our heroes the wrathful targets of intolerant Jihadists who do not pardon?

Why were our elite sent to Tangi Valley and dangerously placed in harms way?

Why were so many Seals ordered to be together on that fateful August day?

Why does the Afghan army, police and security need to know our every maneuver?

Why is our tactical information shared, risking espionage from an enemy intruder?

Why was protocol ignored, Afghans in the Chinook switched at the last minute?

Why was the mandatory flight manifest not changed, where is it, who was in it?

Why does the symbolic word Extortion, the wrongful taking of property by violence;

remind us of Al- Qaeda’s view on the taking of bin Laden, was this reciprocal balance?

Why have the fundamental Rules of Engagement in our military been crazily changed?

Why are we handicapping the troops allowing our vile enemy to shoot first is deranged!

Why do Pentagon officials feel that the Taliban needs to feel loved and wanted,

while our unprotected brave soldiers are being maimed, blown up and taunted?

Why has the media not covered the greatest tragedy ever to hit our Special Forces?

properly investigating and exposing the military coverup using their inside sources?

Why is the press not demanding the truth about the vicious attack in Benghazi;

Americans crying for help while Obama went to bed because he felt drowsy!

Why should we have to hear Hillary Clinton say “but what does it matter!”

listen to her habitual chicanery so she can continue to climb the political ladder?

Why did Joe Biden say at the time of bin Laden’s death, “There is no place to hide!”

while two years later VP Joe is still hiding, not divulging how our Navy Seals died!

Why have all these questions gone unanswered for so long, the responses so lax;

 is it because the Obama spinmeisters need a lot more time to cover the facts?

Why has there not been a Congressional Inquiry to inform Americans of the truth;

our representatives need to help the families who have had to be their own sleuth!

Pray Americans will wake up, understand the consequences of their passive voice;

an America changed forever because its citizens did not stand up to evil by choice!

Pray for our valiant troops for they are in danger, pawns in a corrupted military scheme;

warriors who need our politically incorrect support to help uphold the American Dream!

Pray for our fallen warriors and their family’s who are full of sorrow and cry each night;

thank them for the ultimate sacrifice made on our behalf so we can bask in Gods light!

Pray for the virtuous members of Seal Team Six who are in Heaven enjoying eternal life;

American heroes who can now rest peacefully on Gods shoulder and live without strife.
