Matt has rocked. He does rock. He will continue to rock.

My idea of a true Patriot and American Hero.

His writing has been nothing short of prophetic.

Dang it, marktwain, when I saw the title I thought something had happened to Matt, and about had a heart attack.

Hmmm.

Ladies?

Should there be “rules” established for Matt Bracken threads?

LOL!

Just kidding.

Thanks for the great books and essays!

Nope. That is not the way to treat an honorable man.

Matt is fearless and tireless. We need him to help lead the fight to get our country back. I’ve been waiting so long for his next book, but I understand why he’s making saving America his priority. I still can’t wait for the next book though.

I admit to having a selfish interest here. I want Matt to finish his next book as well.

The more help he gets, the quicker he can finish. I expect the next book to have a pretty girl on the cover.

Too often, we wait until someone has died to honor them.

Sadly true. I thought about that when we learned of Dr. Raoul's passing. One thing that struck me from the replies on the memorial threads was how many people weren't aware of Raoul's extensive and unique history of conservative activism.

Thank you for posting this. And thank you, Matt, for your continued service.

>>A coal mine canary isn’t much use if he’s hiding in a safe place.<<

As long as the miners can hear the song they’ll know it is still safe. There’s no good reason to put the birdcage next to the dynamite, at least none I can think of.
