I wrote and posted this revised Declaration when ObamaCare was passed.

I think a Declaration of our liberties and rights free from tyranny has to go beyond just what Obama has done, for we need a Declaration of Independence from the Federal Beast itself.

Aside from adding two additions, it very much applies today - and I think this one bests the revision on Breitbart which does indeed excise references to Nature's God.

-A Declaration of the Free People of America -

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that ALL men are created equal. Not that some men are more equal than others because of their skin color or minority status. That they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. These do not include as 'rights' healthcare, living wages and "social justice".

That to secure these rights of life, liberty and happiness, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it. And we charge this government and those now in power as being destructive to our lives, our liberty and our happiness. In the course our Founders declared, we have such right to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as our Founding Fathers laid them down to effect in the best perfection achievable by man - our Safety and Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience has shown that mankind is more disposed to suffer tyranny, while tyranny is sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they have become enslaved. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism under the disguise of 'fairness' and 'equality' - it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Such has been the patient sufferance of Conservative Americans; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter and abolish the federal Systems of Socialism in Government.

The history of this present Administration, Congress and the Judiciary and to extents, the previous twelve Administrations, Congresses and Courts, is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States and the people in them. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to the world:

They have violated our Constitutionally-protected rights of free exercise of religion and worship by abolishing Christian exercise and presence in public via courts pushing a secular religion.

They have violated our Constitutionally-protected right of speech by passing laws that criminalize belief and opinion; by laws written to impact and restrict citizen support in elective campaigns of representatives; by requiring licenses, fees, tickets and other assorted sundry demands to peaceably assemble; by demonizing citizens petitioning for a redress of grievances and shutting constituents from meetings to discuss pending legislation by arresting them on bogus charges and stacking the halls with bussed-in supporters; by creating a climate of hatred, fear and loathing for those opposed to this government's actions.

They seek to violate our Constitutionally-protected right of press and political speech by use of clever locality, diversity and content applications designed to restrict opinions and punish mass communication providers that do not comply with government-mandated rules designed to suppress dissent.

They have violated our Constitutionally-protected right to bear arms in outright infringement and by nefarious tax schemes intended to bar the right of the citizen to arms and possessions of arms to carry on his person or own in his own home.

They have bankrupted the entire nation in unfathomable and unrecoverable debt in behemoth government social programs robbing the treasury of the People by welfare ponzi schemes that have created mass entitlements designed to keep the people dependent on government assistance.

They have bankrupted the social security and medical aid programs that take by fiat, a portion of every income to support continued abuse and misappropriations by government bureaucrats.

They have bankrupted private industry by mandating regulations designed for cronyism and dependence of constituents to politicians for reelection.

They pass into law, thousands of pages of legislation, written by unknown persons and lobbyists without reading the bills or knowing what they contain.

They pass into law by inserting hidden 'riders' and 'pork', programs, taxes, regulations and tyranny into bills having nothing to do with the purpose of the proposed legislation.

They hamstring industry vital to national infrastructure by myriad regulations beholden to environmentalists that lobby Congress with money and advisement that ensure our national dependence on foreign energy supplies.

They have robbed wholesale the taxpaying public by nationalizing private business and industry, misappropriating billions of funds to bail out unspecified recipients and impoverishing the people and future generations of Americans in the process.

They have unconstitutionally mandated all citizens purchase government health insurance or face penalty.

They have designed bureaucratic panels to rule on matters of life and death in health care.

They pass laws on the citizenry that they exempt themselves from.

They have continually violated the law of the land and diminished the rights of American citizens by assisting in an invasion of foreign illegal immigrants providing entry and rein into the country without consequence at the expense of the citizenry for the purpose of expanding a political party with dependents.

They have provided aid and comfort to an Islamic enemy at war with the people of the nation, and afforded non-citizen enemy combatants with rights that are the sole province of American citizens.

The Courts have routinely legislated from the bench without any authority in cases brought before them.

The Courts have stated their decisions to rule according to foreign laws, personal life experiences and biases and not by the rule of the Constitution of the United States.

The courts, beholden to the Executive's Party have routinely declared laws passed by the will of the people in the several states to be null and void so as to promote policies and grant status to a minority promoting behaviors corrosive and hostile to the natural state and morality of the majority of the body politick.

The Courts have overturned the express will of the people who have petitioned and passed legislation to alleviate their burdens by personal political biases that are ruled unconstitutional based on wrongful precedents.

The Executive has refused his assent to Laws, rendering null and void by executive decree, those he seeks to diminish, and erected new laws without consent of Congress.

The Executive has decreed he will act unilaterally on his own authority, bypassing the Constitutionally-mandated protocols for passing legislation to become a defecto dictator.

The Executive has engaged in treason by denouncing his country and his countrymen on foreign soil while providing aid and comfort from the treasury to avowed enemies of the United States.

The Executive is engaged with facilitating an invasion of migrants into the country at taxpayer expense and circumventing immigration laws designed to ensure the domestic peace and tranquility of a civil society.

The Executive has pursued a goal of redistributing wealth and private property by demonizing private citizens and enacting policies designed to in his words "return the nation's wealth to their rightful owners".

The Executive is engaged in creating a standing civilian political army answerable only to him, that is "just as strong, just as large and just as well funded as the military".

The Executive is engaged in a preemptive and constant program of demagoguery and derision of political opponents to the point of using federal agencies to declare opponents "domestic terrorists" and to turn the citizenry against specific individuals and professions in order to enact takeovers of those properties.

The Executive has established a government snitch program by requiring citizens report opponents of the President's policies to a White House website that collected the information of 'dissidents' for further use in violation of the Constitution and law.

The Executive has unlawfully and unconstitutionally breached the Separation of Powers and duties specifically assigned to Congress by running the Census out of the Oval Office with a host of invasive questions for the purpose of redistricting the nation to ensure permanent political office for their party.

The Executive has engaged in routine deception of his policies, plans and statements, even concealing his eligibility for the High Office that he holds by refusing to reveal and release information that would qualify his tenure.

The Executive has erected a multitude of New Czars, unaccountable, un-reviewable and untenable to oversight or the recall of the people who will make law and policy outside of legislation to send swarms of Officers to harass our people, eat out of their substance and impoverish classes of Americans.

The Executive has combined with others to subject us to an ideology and jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts without Legislation.

For protecting his agents who used their office to assault, intimidate and deprive American Citizens of their right to organize, having deemed them to be political enemies.

For absolving his agents of accountability for such actions, granting them immunity from investigation or punishment for any lawbreaking which they should commit on the citizens of these States.

For penalizing our industries in deference to third world nations: For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: For depriving us of our liberties:

For abolishing the Free Market System, establishing therein a Marxist government, and enlarging its power so as to render it at once as an absolute oligarchy of power in this country.

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws and altering fundamentally the foundation and principles of the nation:

He has declared us "an unjust nation" and is waging War against us. He has plundered our wealth, ravaged our liberty, impoverished our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.

He is at this time recruiting large armies of political Mercenaries from foreign lands to complete the works of redistribution, enslavement, death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Oppression and Enslavement paralleled in brutal Marxist regimes, and totally unworthy to hold the office of a civilized nation.

He has encouraged our fellow Citizens taken captive by decades of indoctrination, to bear false witness and eventually Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren.

He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our nation, merciless Socialism and despotism whose history is one of destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress via the courts and the ballot box and in the most humble terms via our right to petition: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury, or denied via corruption and usurpation. A government, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define tyranny, is unfit to govern of a free people.

Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our government-supporting brethren. We have warned them of attempts by their government to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us all. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our liberty and the facts in our Constitution here. We have appealed to our commonality of citizenry and love of liberty to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably enslave us all. They too seem deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

We, therefore, the free individuals and Conservative people of the united States of America, in General Agreement, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of God Almighty and our fellow citizens, solemnly publish and declare, That we sovereign citizens of America are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent from the authoritarian arm of the federal government, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the federal government, and that all political connection between them and the federal government in Washington D.C., is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent Sovereign Citizens, have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things that our Founder's intended within the boundaries of the Constitution of the United States of America which was our bulwark against an oppressive and intrusive government.

And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
