AMERICA - The Right Way!! (Day 1395) [Remember the Trade Center!!]

Various News Sources and FReepers | November 15, 2004 | All of Us

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!

Good morning!!

Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!

Members of the other party still don't get it.

As Republicans, we are reviled by that other American party for having the temerity to insist that America stand tall among the great nations of the world.

As Republicans, we are reviled by that other American party for having the temerity to insist that America have the right to defend herself.

As Republicans, we are reviled by that other American party for having the temerity to insist that no other country in the world be able to dictate how this Nation will protect itself.

And that's just for starters.

The other party would have it so that criminals are understood rather than punished. The other party would have it so that success financially is punished rather than rewarded. The other party wants to prohibit Americans from using our own country's natural resources to maintain and maybe improve our standard of living. The other party would rather see terrorists set free from Guantanamo than our soldiers be successful in wiping the scourge from the planet.

That is the Great American Left! That is the crowd that believes the United Nations is better than the United States.

In the campaign just concluded we heard that President Bush failed in the Iraq War because he didn't have a plan for the peace. First, it must be said that the author of this piece was, in retrospect, a bit slow in fashioning the correct response, but as they say "better late than never." The only reason the charge was made was because there wasn't peace, but if the war concludes, then we won't need a plan for the peace because, guess what folks, we will have peace!

In that same campaign, it was offered that average Americans pay too little tax, and rich Americans not enough. This is the view of the Great American Left. Truth is, Washington spends too much.

Now, the Great American Left would offer that we simply didn't understand their message. If we were to learn the nuances of what they offer, we would all genuflect in their direction, realize their majesty, and offer them the scepter of power from now until eternity. Or, at least this is the view of Nancy Pelosi--House MINORITY Leader.

Well, Nancy, here's something for you to ponder. We have heard your message. We Americans have learned the Great American Left wants to take our money and to leave us more poor, more weak, and more dead.

The Great American Left would rather pay out grants for studies to determine the root causes of crime than to provide guns, bullets, and body armor to our brave kids fighting to save Iraq and the world from terrorists.

The Great American Left would rather see that the Geneva Conventions apply to Al Qa'eda members even though these people are not military members and have no reservations about completely ignoring the rules of war on their part.

The Great American left sees a comity of nations that cowtow to the great United Nations. The United Nations, however, is completely unaccountable to the people of the world. Has anyone on the planet actually stood in an election for a representative to the UN? No. They are appointed by governments of countries--the sovereign voice of the various people. But the Great American Left, in their blind hatred of the regime ancien in this country, desire their leadership.

The Great American left would have us believe that the collective security offered by the United Nations would protect us, even though most of the Nation's in the UN either simply don't care about us, or are our sworn enemies (Cuba comes to mind).

The Great American left operates on the notion that the only way to deal with countries and groups that threaten us is to appease them--sort of like giving the class bully your lunch money in the hopes that he won't pound you, today.

That's the Great American Left.

And that's why they are not right.

Under leadership offered by President Bush, American has, thankfully, not been attacked since September 11, 2001.

Many of Al Qa'eda's elements are in less than perfect working order. Some parts aren't even working at all (for you folks on the left--that means DEAD!).

Terrorists in Iraq are on the run. It is not a good thing to be a terrorist and be sent to that country right now.

Lybia has agreed to give up its WMD program, and just this morning it has been anounced in the papers that Iran now has agreed to freeze its nuclear program.

The American economy is expanding and adding new jobs at a healthy clip.

But in the end, maybe we'll acknowledge one argument of the Great American Left--ok, maybe George W. Bush wasn't elected in 2000. That would mean that he can stand for and win re-election in 2008.

Nancy Pelosi--America has heard the message of the Great American Left. America understands that message, very clearly.

That is why George W. Bush is President, and Senator Tom Daschle is going home.

For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause the Chairman.`

Gee, I just want to get through Thanksgiving first!!!!!...LOL

Agree!, BUT, I am going Christmas shopping today...the weather is too good to pass up going out and running about...

[DollyCali]

Thanks .. I thought I had heard that, but not really being a long time follower of all these folks, tend to still confuse them.

Had to laugh re: comments on new furniture/pets demise related. I will never have a life without pets, I don't believe.. I have learned to get a little less crazy than I did when I was younger about it.

I visited a male neighbor a few weeks ago.. hadn't been to his place for about a year. we had a party there/football related. He just got a few cats & a new dog late 2002. His place was never House beautiful, but he did have nice things.. typical bachelor -- lots of clutter (actually that is me too).. when I got there about a dozen folks were there, chatting & waiting for game . I chuckled quietly to see the expensive modern furniture resembling at trunk of a shagbark hickory tree! The cats had complete control of the house. Never having children, these were his kids & were very loved & very friendly.

My indoor cats don't claw gratefully. Litter boxes are ignored often & the rug shampooer gets lots of use. good quality/High powered air filters are good...

We often do idiotic things for "our loves" don't we?

[DollyCali]

I love his careful way of speaking... his gentle voice..

I am going out lated today, but for a hopefully long bike ride... I too cant pass up the weather - BUT NOT FOR SHOPPING..

Great open, Chair! Good morning, All.

[Guenevere]

Mornin' Thirds....what's the weather in beautiful Denver?
...those Rocky Mountains still there?...:))

[Two Thirds Vote Aye]

Mornin' Guennie! It's going to be sunny and in the high 50's to low 60's until Wednesday evening.....snow coming then. Colorado Rocky Mountains have not moved to Canada with the liberals. They stayed right here in Bush Country! :))

[Iowa Granny]

Good Morning Sweetie!

[Peach]

And a very fine morning to read your essay, Chair. What fun it was to read!

[Miss Marple]

We must have a new postmaster at our local post office. I haven't been there in three years, but had to go there this morning to pick up a certified letter with our car title.

Three years ago the place was pretty spartan. Now they have all sorts of displays and knick-knacks for sale. Therre is a window with Disney stamps and stuffed Disney characters, all sorts of collectibles associated with stamps, and CHEERFUL WORKERS. The whole place must be under new management.

[Guenevere]

#26...OK, just checking, Thirds. LOL

Morning to you IowaGranny :)

[Guenevere]

#29...LOL, even our post office doesn't have Disney stuff :)

[Miss Marple]

Well, I felt like I was in an alternate universe. Three years ago, the most prominent decoration was a poster which said "It is a felony to assult a postal worker."

Oh...Spencer Abraham is resigning.

I'd like to call everyone's attention to a thread and the website to which it refers:

4th Annual Tree for the Troops

It's a cyber-tree with the decorations representing messages to the troops that one can leave at the site. No registration, no strings of any kind, apparently.

And then I would like to call your attention to the latest revision of the ATRW ping list. Please copy and use this newest version (especially if you use the list for pinging people to other threads) because someone has requested that their name be taken off.

If you would like to be added to or removed from the list, please let me know.

I am fearful of all these people leaving the Administration. The ones I WANT to leave are still there, ie: Ann Veneman

[ohioWfan]

Colin Powell just announced his resignation!

[kayak]

I agree with you about Christmas being rushed ... was in stores early last week where the Halloween candy and decorations were being replaced by the Christmas stuff. Thanksgiving pretty much gets shoved aside.

..... One notable exception ... the Cracker Barrel right down the street from our office (our home away from home for dinner all too often) has some really cute and/or pretty Thanksgiving items. They are getting out their Christmas stock, also, but have the Thanksgiving theme in the most prominent places.

Sorry to have inserted the Christmas trees in my #33 but I think exceptions can be made for our troops ... ;-)

[Miss Marple]

I hate to see him go. He was a good Secretary of State, despite all the carping from some around here.

However, I am sure he is burned out with all the stuff he has been involved with. I am grateful for his service.

[Miss Marple]

Is Ann Veneman not working out? I don't know a thing about Agriculture, so can't make a judgement.

We should have lots of interesting news over the next few months, what with nominations and confirmation hearings.

[kayak]

Well, we already have a revision to our newest revision of the Ping List.

Please use this very latest one, hot off the keyboard, when you use the list.
