A Hollywood conservative has headed East. It's "Freedom Concert" time for Jon Voight. The Academy Award winner will join Sean Hannity in Cincinnati and Atlanta this weekend to honor fallen soldiers and present college scholarships to surviving children. Mr. Voight -- a warrior himself in many ways -- has been cogitating about the state of America, meanwhile.

"There's a real question at stake now. Is President Obama creating a civil war in our own country?" Mr. Voight tells Inside the Beltway.

"We are witnessing a slow, steady takeover of our true freedoms. We are becoming a socialist nation, and whoever can't see this is probably hoping it isn't true. If we permit Mr. Obama to take over all our industries, if we permit him to raise our taxes to support unconstitutional causes, then we will be in default. This great America will become a paralyzed nation."

Well it's not just Obama. Every president since Roosevlet has added something to the decline of our rights. The government ever since the great depression has made some excuse due to some emergency to take away our rights. It does not matter if it is the Republican party or Democratic party, both just want power and once they have it will do anything to keep it. Obama is a big problem to this. Very few within our government truly care about individual freedom which this country was founded upon. What Obama is doing is accelerating the process of government takeover. It is with great hope however that many people are catching on to the government's desire for power and are rejecting it. Both parties, not just Democrats need to once again go back to the principles upon which or founded. As Patrick Henry once said "Give me liberty or give me death." No matter which president and congress give the American people the final straw we should all follow those words. Liberty to choose our own path is worth more than life in my eyes. But no matter what you believe do not just blame it on Obama. He is just one major part of a long line of unconstitutional politicians.
