A Redress of Grievance

Mr. Anthony Dolpies, of the Thomas Jefferson Club, has drafted a Petition for the Redress of Grievance, to be sent to and read by the United States Congress. While I have no hopes of it actually changing anything, if we can get enough concerned citizens to sign the petition perhaps it will at the least serve as a notice of warning to politicians that there are many who are displeased with their reckless abuse of power.

Petition for Redress of Grievance

Please take a few moments to read this eloquently crafted petition patterned after the Declaration of Independence, and if you agree with what is written then sign the petition and pass it on to those you believe would be interested in signing as well.

It seems that an inherent characteristic of libertarians and constitutionalists is cynicism towards the government of today. No doubt this characteristic is caused by the wayward straying of our three branches of government from the principles of individual and economic freedoms upon which our country was founded.

"The stench produced by an abuse of power has befouled every branch of our government"

And it may be a good idea to reread the Declaration of Independence as well, just to remind ourselves of the similarity of situations which they faced and which we face today.
