A] good moral character is the first essential in a man George Washington

"[A] good moral character is the first essential in a man, and that the habits contracted at your age are generally indelible, and your conduct here may stamp your character through life. It is therefore highly important that you should endeavor not only to be learned but virtuous." – George Washington, letter to George Steptoe Washington, December 5, 1790; Fitzpatrick 31:163

Happy 240th Birthday Marines!! Semper Fi.

 
 
 
Happy 240th Birthday Marines!! Semper Fi.

During the American Revolution, the Continental Congress passes a resolution stating that "two Battalions of Marines be raised" for service as landing forces for the recently formed Continental Navy. The resolution, drafted by future U.S. president John Adams and adopted in Philadelphia, created the Continental Marines and is now observed as the birth da...te of the United States Marine Corps.
Serving on land and at sea, the original U.S. Marines distinguished themselves in a number of important operations during the Revolutionary War. The first Marine landing on a hostile shore occurred when a force of Marines under Captain Samuel Nicholas captured New Province Island in the Bahamas from the British in March 1776. Nicholas was the first commissioned officer in the Continental Marines and is celebrated as the first Marine commandant.

Solo Dios es el juez de los corazones de los hombres George Washington

Sólo Dios es el juez de los corazones de los hombres
"I also give it in Charge to you to avoid all Disrespect to or Contempt of the Religion of the Country and its Ceremonies. Prudence, Policy, and a true Christian Spirit, will lead us to look with Compassion upon their Errors without insulti...ng them. While we are contending for our own liberty, we should be very cautious not to violate the rights of conscience in others, ever considering that God alone is the judge of the hearts of men, and to him only in this case they are answerable." – George Washington, letter to Colonel Benedict Arnold, Camp at Cambridge, September 14, 1775; "The Writings of George Washington from the Original Manuscript Sources, 1745—1799," edited by John C. Fitzpatrick, 39 vols. Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office (1931-44) Vol. 3, p. 492

Happy Independece day

Today, the United States is celebrating her 239th birthday and many of us will observe this special day celebrating with family at cookouts and fireworks displays.
We urge each of you to take a few minutes out of your day to explore the significance of Independence Day by doing a few things with your family.
First, read the Declaration of Independence. It is both a pleasurable and a rewarding experience that should be enjoyed by every citizen. The Declaration is a deep, rich ...document, giving the twenty-seven reasons that America was birthed, and also setting forth in its first 155 words the six immutable principles of American government – the six principles on which the Founders later erected the Constitution of the United States – the six principles that still produce American Exceptionalism today. You can download printable copies.
http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php…!
Learn something new about those who wrote the Declaration. Look at the names of the fifty-six signers; find one you don’t know – perhaps one you’ve never heard of before; look him up and read a short bio about him. Short biographies are available at Colonial Hall.

As for the fireworks and festivities surrounding Independence Day, John Adams missed the date by two days but he accurately described our observances:
"The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever." – John Adams, Letter to Abigail Adams, July 3, 1776; Works 9:420
And how did George Washington mark the occasion of the signing of the Declaration of Independence? He bought a broom. Really.

George Washington, address to Congress, Princeton, August 26, 1783; Fitzpatrick 27:117

 
"Perhaps, Sir, No occasion may offer more suitable than the present, to express my humble thanks to God, and my grateful acknowledgments to my Country, for the great and uniform support I have received in every vicissitude of Fortune, and for the many distinguished honors which Congress have been pleased to confer upon me in the course of the War."

– George Washington, address to officers of the Army, upon fumbling for his glasses before delivering his response to the first Newburgh Address, Headquarters, Newburgh, New York, March 15, 1783; Fitzpatrick 26:225

 
 
F]or if Men are to be precluded from offering their Sentiments on a matter, which may involve the most serious and alarming consequences, that can invite the consideration of Mankind, reason is of no use to us; the freedom of Speech may be taken away, and, dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep, to the Slaughter."
