I’d love to, it might take me some time to adapt to the heat, chili’s good and I love it when the Texans come up to our rib-fest.
We also expect you to know your history.

Like the reasoning behind the Declaration of Independance...
Tyranny..
“The history of the present (President of the United States) is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
SNIP
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our People, and eat out their substance.
SNIP
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended legislation:
SNIP
For imposing taxes on us without our Consent:
SNIP
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
SNIP
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A (President), whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free People.”
(Exerpts from The Declaration of Independance, Philadelphia, PA, July 4, 1776)
Agree absolutely. She is very impressive also debating the Dems pundits on any issue.
WOW! What a good post...and scary!
