JUNE <strong>14</strong>, <strong>2013</strong><br />

A gift from our<br />

Founding Fathers<br />

JOE<br />

MORIS<br />

Baby Boomer Peace<br />

This government of ours<br />

has become so large and so<br />

bloated that now it is in every<br />

one of our lives.<br />

It chips away at the freedoms<br />

instilled in each of us<br />

that were the basis for the<br />

greatness of this country.<br />

Our Founding Fathers<br />

fought hard against government<br />

intrusion in our lives<br />

because they knew it would<br />

stifle freedom and the godgiven<br />

spirit of those that<br />

longed to become Americans.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y preserved that spirit in<br />

a document that we<br />

Americans would always be<br />

free.<br />

Free to pursue our own<br />

happiness. Free to pursue<br />

our dreams without government<br />

interference or<br />

overindulgence. <strong>The</strong>re were<br />

limits put on government in<br />

our Constitution. Our<br />

Constitution is what makes<br />

America.<br />

It is a gift of the<br />

Founding Fathers.<br />

Patty Clark is a friend of<br />

mine. She has always loved<br />

to write and now writes a column<br />

called “Damsel in dismess.”<br />

It is a very entertaining<br />

column.<br />

She writes from the<br />

standpoint of a single mom of<br />

two marriages with three<br />

adult daughters and the crazy<br />

life she’s stumbled her way<br />

through.<br />

Because she wasn’t published<br />

and dreamed she<br />

would be some day, Patty<br />

persevered and posted her<br />

writings on some blog and an<br />

editor of a newspaper in<br />

Kansas City, just flipping<br />

through the Internet one<br />

day, saw one.<br />

This editor contacted<br />

Patty and voila, Patty is on<br />

her way to eventual syndication<br />

writing a weekly column<br />

now for a big city newspaper.<br />

I love it!<br />

I liken Patty to the<br />

American experience.<br />

Through a dream and a restless<br />

spirit plus a little divine<br />

intervention, Patty was able<br />

to succeed.<br />

We are Americans and<br />

we are divinely protected!<br />

We are the land of the free<br />

and the home of the brave.<br />

We are free to succeed, fail<br />

and then succeed again.<br />

Entrepreneurial spirit is<br />

what made this country<br />

great, not government.<br />

I look at the problems of<br />

large inner cities due to the<br />

overindulgence of government.<br />

What I see from time to<br />

time on various television<br />

segments are kids, who don’t<br />

know if they will be killed<br />

tomorrow on the way to or in<br />

their school, become brilliant<br />

children through inner<br />

city private schools that take<br />

vouchers and are selective of<br />

their students.<br />

In other words, if the<br />

kids don’t succeed, they’re<br />

out!<br />

<strong>The</strong> teachers at these<br />

schools are not union members<br />

so they fight for their<br />

jobs every day through their<br />

excellence.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have the need to<br />

succeed, so when they transfer<br />

that to their students,<br />

who also succeed, going on<br />

to college and becoming productive<br />

Americans, instead<br />

of inner city victims.<br />

Everyone has, or should<br />

have, their dreams but if the<br />

government stifles dreams<br />

by supporting you only just<br />

enough so that you are not<br />

able to break out of your circumstance<br />

then that is not<br />

good.<br />

Those citizens who live<br />

on unearned government<br />

assistance should eventually<br />

be cut off or put on a program<br />

that cuts their government<br />

benefits by a small percentage<br />

every month.<br />

Do you think someone<br />

whose income is dwindling<br />

monthly is going to sit there<br />

and starve or set up a box on<br />
