Tu ne cede malis sed contra audentior ito. Cur ante tubam tremor occupat artus? Fortiter in re, suaviter in modo.

  • Confirmed reports say Osama Bin Laden. United States has the body.

  • The Untied States has always moved forward. Blazing new lands, inventing new objects, helping others, and changing the way we think about government. We look at founding documents and say that is nice lets move on. We often forgot the line "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquillity, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity" this quote is form the preamble to the United States Constitution. The citizens are the ones change the nation. We are the ones that must change not the nation.

    Some will, ask how did we get here? We got here by being divided. We put ourselves into different categories Republican, Democrat, Texan, New Yorker, rich, poor, religious, non religious, white, African American the list can go on and on. There are those who want to take us back. They want to us back to a time when we even more divided. The nation did not land a man on the moon by yelling about a Democrat stating the space race or complaining about the launch site being in Florida. We often stick our heads in the sand and yell you are wrong and dumb. We fight over nothing. We when work together and stop yelling we archive great things.

    After September 11 Americans were united, we did not care about race or political affiliation. We just cared that the other was an American. We preach love but instead we hate. We let killers slip by while others are killed. We can no longer be divided. We are at the tipping point. Work together or die. We must make a choice. We must follow the phase Fortiter in re suaviter in modo (Resolute in execution, gentle in manner) to keep this city on a hill. Will we join Rome and Babylon in the dusty pages of a history book or will we continue to endure?
