Taking Back What Is Ours

We The People...are the basic tenets of why our country was formed, and why the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were incorporated into our government. " We The People" as American citizens are ensured though our birthright, and that fact that we are FREE men, certain rights bestowed upon us by our founding fathers. The reason our founding fathers went through such pains is to help ensure that "We The People" would not ever have to go through serfdom, and slavery that so many others before them had to endure from their government.

Our Federal government, most state and local governments have been infiltrated, and taken over by agents that answer to the international bankers, and large corporations. "We The People" have become little more than grist to be ground under the wheels of these people. We as a people need to start paying attention to how many rights, and privileges we have lost to the Federal government in the supposed need for safety from terrorists, and the like.

This brings up the question, how do We The People take back what is rightfully ours, and how do we make our government subservient to us, instead of us being subservient to them?. The purpose of this article is to show how it can be done.

First we need to recognize who and what is the enemy to our freedom, our Constitution, and our ability to function as free men and women, and not as indentured servants. The primary concern for all of us is to take back our legislatures on a Federal, and state level. This means that almost all incumbent Senators, and Representatives need to be voted out of office. If the incumbent voted for the trillion dollar bail out of the banks, he/she needs to be voted out of office. If he/she voted for HR 3534 to give control of our coasts, harbors, great lakes, and rivers to the United Nations, they need to be voted out. We need to vote for people who openly support the Constitution, and who's voting record proves that they are patriotic. We need to rise above the two party paradigm and vote for candidates that will represent their constituents, no matter their party, and not the people supplying them with money.

On a local level we need to elect county sheriffs that will stand up the the Feds and will keep them out of local matters that are entrusted to them by the Constitution. This point is very important. As long as we have courts to uphold the Constitution, we need to have strong people in charge that will stand up to the Feds, and take them to court if necessary to protect their people.

Third, we need to over throw the Federal Reserve Bank. The Fed as it is called, is not Federal in that it answers to the government, but it is an independent corporation that is run by off shore bankers. Our entire money supply, and control is in the hands of foreigners! Our currency is quickly being turned into Monopoly money by these folks as they work for a one world currency, and government that will be run by them. We need to elect people like Ron Paul and others who openly call for the end to the Fed.

Fourth, SUPPORT STATE'S RIGHTS! A wise man said, "Countries are a fire-wall to tyranny". Well in our case states are a fire-wall to tyranny. State's rights are found in the eighth, and eleventh amendments of the Constitution. Any attempt at the Federal Government's infringement of these State's rights must be fought in the court.

Our government was not infiltrated over night, and there is no quick cure on how to get it back. The first step is this coming election. "We The People" need to make our voices heard loud and clear this election day. Get out and vote, and encourage others to do the same.

Comprehending Comprehension - Standardized Test Taking Strategies For Reading

Which of the following relationships is most similar to the relationship below?

Standardized testing: life success


weather: climate
rain: snow
weather: happiness
stormy: weather

This is the last in a three part series about preparing your child for the end of year exams. Whatever your opinion about the necessity and validity of testing, you cannot change the fact that your child will soon be handed a bubble sheet and asked to remember material from an entire year. As I have mentioned before, it is important to approach test taking with balance. Don't add to the inherent stressfulness of the situation by loading your child down with extra study and work. Your goal is not to add to your child's knowledge, but to help them effectively use and retrieve what they already know. Here are some last minute standardized test taking strategies to give your kids:



Reading for (no) fun. Don't expect to enjoy reading the passages. They're often very boring. One of our boys once read about the migration habits of geese.

First things first. When you first turn to a reading passage, see if you can tell if it is fiction, non-fiction, drama, poetry, or something else. Don't worry if you don't know.

What's your question? Read the questions before you read the passage.

Just the facts, ma'am. Mark which questions are asking for "just the facts". Many times they will begin with words like who, when, or where.

Read my lips. Read the passage. If it helps, it's okay to move your lips, although you can't make any sound.

That's the answer! As you read, if you find an answer to one of the questions, underline it.

Where to find it. Know where to look for answers. Remember:

Answers about where or where the story takes place are frequently found at the beginning of the passage.
Solutions to a problem in the story are usually found in the middle.
Answers about how the problem is solved are often found at the end.



Like, it's like... Remember, when reading analogies, state the relationship in your head. For example, say "standardized test scores have nothing to do with life success" just like "weather has nothing to do with happiness".
