The object then will be to make our independence a blessing. To do this we must secure our union on solid foundations; an herculean task and to effect which mountains of prejudice must be leveled! It requires all the virtue and all the abilities of the Country. ... We know each others sentiments, our views are the same: we have fought side by side to make America free, let us hand in hand struggle to make her happy.
~~Alexander Hamilton to John Laurens, August 15, 1782

A Tag from a "Buddy"

OK, it looks like this blog is becoming my tag blog right now. I hope to put up some posts here (sometime), but right now, I have so many projects to work on and so little time to complete them.

In the meantime, however, my blogger friend Fida Abbott is getting tagged and passing them on to me. She recently tagged me, and gave me the "Great Buddy" award. Thanks, Fida. Congratulations for winning 15th place in the Personal Blogs Finalist at Christian Indonesia Blog Festival 2008! I am very happy for you!

So, here goes the tag! Here are the rules:

  • Save the image above to be forwarded;
  • Choose several person;
  • Give the reason why you chose those person.
OK, here is the image: The people I would like to choose are those faithful readers (and ones who leave comments) on my blog. I choose the following, because they have have encouraged me, cross-examined my work, given me input, and helped me make my blogging venture a success, simply by their participation. Congratulations! If I may, I would also like to return this award to FIDA ABBOTT! She is a really good blogger buddy, too. Thanks, Fida.

P. S. I would also like to alert my blogger friends that they have a chance to sign the Declaration of Independence, via Stephen Palmer's blog, The Cause of Liberty. Your opportunity is unique, for any remarks you make won't have to be passed through tradition, like to words of our Founders, as they signed. Rather, you can record your own words (no more than 225 characters) beside your signature.

One note of precaution, however. As was the case with our Founders, signing the Declaration was no show. It was a very serious and dangerous commitment. Before you sign, I would ask you to seriously consider the rules laid forth for becoming a member of my Friends of Liberty blogroll. In 1776, our Founders knew their commitment could cost them their lives, and more. Maybe a look at the signature of Stephen Hopkins would give you an idea of what they were feeling at that time. His reported words match his signature: "My hand trembles, but my heart does not!"(1)

    Hello Mr. Mulligan:

    I was wondering if you would be interested in joining in a collaberation against secular junk. I was thinking of maybe doing a new blog, entitled "American Creation, 2.0" It would counter the secularism of American Creation and the other extremist propaganda. I realize you are busy, but I think it would be a beneficial project. And if you were unable to create new posts, perhaps you could simply use the posts that you have already done on your other blogs.

    What do you think?

    God Bless!

    Mr. Mulligan:

    I would like to invite you to check out American Creation 2.0 I created this blog to respond to the secular agenda found at American Creation. As you will see, the blog is very similar in appearance to the original American Creation (which is sure to get their blood boiling).

    Sir, I would really love to have you join the blog. I know you already have a number ob blogs and might not have time for mine, but perhaps you could simply cut and paste your material onto this new blog? It would be a major help.

    I just need your email to send you the blog invitation. My email is:
    danatkinson75@gmail.com

    God bless!
