\n[COLOR=rgb(0,0,0)]Wednesday was a landmark day for conservatives when more than 80 conservative leaders \u0096 including MRC founder Brent Bozell \u0096 signed \u0093The Mount Vernon Statement\u0094, a document defining the conservative movement\u0092s principles, beliefs, and values in light of the blistering, radical attacks that are threatening our liberty and way of life.<\/font><\/font>
\nThis historic gathering at Mount Vernon recommits conservatives to constitutional authority, declaring a philosophical war against big government, and radical attempts to recast our nation into a socialist state.<\/font><\/font>
\nFifty-years ago, a similar moral and political crisis gripped our nation when a group of young conservatives gathered at the home of Brent\u0092s uncle, William F. Buckley, Jr., to sign \u0093The Sharon Statement\u0094 a keystone document that launched the modern conservative movement. The Mount Vernon Statement is intended create a renewed sense of common purpose among conservatives. As Brent says,<\/font><\/font>
\n\u0093The Mount Vernon Statement solidifies the conservative movement as vibrant and energized, ready to lead America into a renewed era of liberty and self government.\u0094<\/p>\n

<\/font>
\n+ + One Million Conservatives Renewed, Recommitted for Change<\/i><\/font><\/font>
\nsteve, The Mount Vernon Statement gives conservatives across the nation an opportunity to sign on and be part of this recommitment to a Constitution-based conservatism.<\/font><\/font>
\nBrent says, \u0093Conservatives must reinstitute the great principles that defined us by our nation\u0092s founders. Conservatives must work to fight the radical agenda that threatens our jobs, our security, our values and our security. And conservatives must do it together.\u0094<\/font><\/p>\n

As a nation and a people, it\u0092s time to get back to those first principles, and that\u0092s precisely what The Mount Vernon Statement does.<\/font><\/font>
\nsteve, what happened Wednesday at Mount Vernon needs to happen throughout the nation, as hundreds of thousands of conservatives add their name to this historic document.<\/font><\/font>

\nRight now the very core of our society and culture are under intense attack \u0096 our principles are being undermined and redefined in the liberal media, in our schools, and in Washington.<\/font><\/font>
\nWe simply cannot allow this destruction to continue.<\/font><\/font>
\nAs the nation\u0092s leading media watchdog, the MRC has long been sounding the alarm, exposing and neutralizing the so-called \u0093news\u0094 media\u0092s role in this effort.<\/font><\/font>
\nWednesday\u0092s historic signing signals an end to the radical reshaping of our nation, and a re-birth of the constitutional principles that the vast majority of Americans hold near and dear.<\/font><\/font>
