TIME FOR ACTION

I SEEN A POST IN THE TIMESDAILY FORUMS. THE POST HAD SOME OF THE THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE IN IT. I LOOKED UP THE DECLARATION.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, 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 to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, 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 these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain 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.

THE FOUNDING FATHERS OF OUR GREAT COUNTRY LAID OUT CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS THAT WERE ENDOWED BY OUR CREATOR. "whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government". THE DECLARATION STATES THAT IT IS OUR DUTY AS CITIZENS OF THIS GREAT COUNTY TO ABOLISH A CORRUPT GOVERNMENT AND SET UP A NEW ONE.

ALABAMA LAW DOES NOT ALLOW THIS CURRENTLY FOR OUR SIZE DOWN. IT IS TIME THAT WE NOTIFY OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS AND DEMAND THAT OUR UNALIENABLE RIGHTS GIVEN TO US BY OUR CREATOR SHOULD BE RESTORED. THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE INSURES THAT WE HAVE THESE RIGHTS AND ALABAMA STATE LAW CAN NOT TAKE THEM AWAY.

SEVERAL YEARS AGO, MANY OF THE CITIZENS OF CHEROKEE APPROACHED SENATOR RODGER BEDFORD AND REP JOHNNY MACK MORROW AND ASKED THEM TO INTRODUCE A BILL THAT WOULD ALLOW A RECALL FOR OUR SIZE CITY. THEY WERE OPEN TO IT. IT IS TIME THAT WE THE CITIZENS OF CHEROKEE RESTORE OUR RIGHTS AS CITIZENS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY AND TOWN. IT IS TIME TO RISE UP AND TAKE OUR TOWN BACK. CALL BEDFORD AND MORROW AND DEMAND THEY HOLD A MEETING IN CHEROKEE IN REFERENCE TO MAKING A BILL TO ALLOW A RECALL.

ROGER BEDFORD (256) 332-7709, (256) 332-2880,(334) 242-7862, senbedford@aol.com

JOHNNY MACK MORROW (256) 356-8043, (334) 242-7698

IT IS TIME TO STOP TALKING ABOUT DOING SOMETHING. THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO MAKE YOUR TOWN BETTER. IT DOES NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHICH SIDE OF THE FENCE YOU ARE ON. THIS WOULD ALLOW EVERY ONE TO FIND OUT WHO THE CITIZENS REALLY SUPPORT.
