I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious. Vince Lombardi
Thus it is that in war the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won, whereas he who is destined to defeat first fights and afterwards looks for victory. Sun Tzu
We are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of Nature has placed in our power... the battle, sir, is not to the strong alone it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Patrick Henry
If the battle for civilization comes down to the wimps versus the barbarians, the barbarians are going to win. Thomas Sowell
In every battle there comes a time when both sides consider themselves beaten, then he who continues the attack wins. Ulysses S. Grant
The whole course of human history may depend on a change of heart in one solitary and even humble individual - for it is in the solitary mind and soul of the individual that the battle between good and evil is waged and ultimately won or lost. M. Scott Peck
Fighting wars is not so much about killing people as it is about finding things out. The more you know, the more likely you are to win a battle. Tom Clancy
Who am I ? I am Susan Ivanova, commander, daughter of Andrei and Sophi Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance, and the boot that is going to kick your sorry ass all the way back to Earth, sweetheart. I am death incarnate, and the last living thing that you will ever see. God sent me !

“Engage the enemy more closely” — Nelson at Trafalgar
The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freemen or slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their houses and farms are to be pillaged and destroyed, and themselves consigned to a state of wretchedness from which no human efforts will deliver them. The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army. Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the choice of brave resistance, or the most abject submission. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die.
GEORGE WASHINGTON, address to the Continental Army before the battle of Long Island, Aug. 27, 1776
Don’t be complacent. Everybody VOTE!
Based on what I saw at the polling place the Democrats are out in force.

Speaking for one of the "unborn millions" that The General was presciently referring to, all I can say today is another day for patriots to stand up. And if those new Republicans do not reverse the socialist course, sign me up for a third party in 2012. Boehner, Cantor, et. al., you have been warned!
Very good! I am working as a poll observer in a heavily Democratic, nearly 100% black precinct and keeping an eye on things. Typing this on my Blackberry.

Thanks! I am getting quite hungry but this is more important right now. Only about 45 minutes to go.
I thank you sir, President Washington was indeed the model that all Americans should endevour to uphold. It is a great honor and at the same time a very humbling experience to read the writings of this giant among men.
The very first thing you notice about Washington is his absolute devotion to excellence, even perfection, in all aspects of his life. That, along with his humbleness and devotion to what he saw as his divinely appointed duty to his Country, make him the yardstick against which we should judge other men, be they President or plumber.
