		<description><![CDATA[A tyranny begins when power is unchecked. The federal government is becoming more tyrannical everyday that the people and the states don&#8217;t defend their rights. The shift has occurred because the check on federal power, largely responsible by state governments; has been trampled, bribed, threatened, or manipulated by those in power. One should never forget it is the people that created the states, and the states created the federal government. &#8216;Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.&#8217; The federal government is not the all powerful monopoly entity it thinks it is. Sure, the statists and elitists would like you to believe it is. All they care about is more power and wealth for themselves, by taking more control over you. As long as they hold any power and control over your life they know you will become dependent on their decisions. The true way to defeat this behavior is to know what they are doing to make you dependent. Always know your rights as a free human being to make alternate choices. Ever wonder why some people attack individual liberties, free market principles, and freedom in general? The reason is they can&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As soon as I saw the headline of an August 10 article by financial columnist Peter Cohan, I knew that something was terribly wrong. It reads: “How did the politics of small government lead to big government bailouts?” This is akin to asking, How did the extinction of the elephants lead to Barack Obama’s election as president? If you make a claim of the form “A caused B,” but A never happened, then you are wasting your time by delving into the historical details of this bogus relationship. Yet we continue to see one example after another of what suspicious readers may be tempted to view as the Big Lie that deregulation or other obliging government measures caused the present economic mess. I won’t go so far as to characterize this claim as a Big Lie. Although some of its purveyors, acting out of partisan motives, surely know that they are blowing smoke, others may simply suffer from economic ignorance, analytical confusion, or loss of historical memory. In any event, the public is ill-served by commentators who purport to speak with authority about our current economic troubles and related government’s policies, yet peddle this worse-than-sophomoric tale. &#8230; More (Author: Robert [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over 5000 concerned citizens from across Colorado gathered at the steps of the State Capital this afternoon.  They gathered to send a loud and clear message to Washington DC.  STOP SPENDING AND WASTING OUR TAXPAYER DOLLARS AND STOP INCREASING THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT. Libertarians, Conservatives, Constitutionalists, Independents, and moderate Democrats all showed at this the second rally this year.  I was at the both rallies and I was very impressed at the turnout today.  I feel better knowing more people are starting to stand up for their liberties and tell their government NO MORE! When I got home I happened to turn on CNN and listed to someone covering a news story at another rally. The reporter had an absurd question that mentioned that 95% of Americans are getting a tax cut this year.  What the reporter failed to mention was the trillion plus we have to go in debt under the Obama plan.  It also didn&#8217;t account for the inflation tax we will soon see with all our commodities.  I am personally frustrated with biased news reporting which doesn&#8217;t account with how people really feel about policies.  Thank goodness for the Internet where I can access millions of articles, [...]]]></description>
