JULY 4, 2008. THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE WORLD.

THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE WORLD July 4, 2008

WHEN, in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have bound them, and to assume, among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's GOD entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Humankind requires that they should declare the Causes which impel them to the Separation.

We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all People 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 People, 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 shown, that Humankind 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 United States and the World; and such is now the Necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The History of President George Bush and his Government is a History of repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all having in direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these United States and the World. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World.
