Random Political Thoughts...By The Finman
November 23, 2002 | The Finman

As the one of the Administrators of RonaldReagan.com I can honestly say that I try to keep my board moving as best as I can, in both a conservative and forward thinking manner... while at the same time trying to scout out & recognize enemy postions.

This effort, coupled with the web work that I do, often leaves me overwhelmed and lacking the time & resources that I need to to post articles of my own writing...instead I am often left reguritating articles from outside sources that I either agree with, or articles from "the left" that I hold up as ridicule to be used as "motivating factors".

I use to be very good at writing my own postions and staking out my own claims...I simply don't have the time anymore.

Even though the left has been defeated, we should heed the words of William Shakespeare...because they (the left) will not go "gently into that goodnight", and if anything...they are now far more emboldened than they were before their defeat.

And not just emboldened in the normal sense..these leftist are emboldened with a sense of nothing else to lose, this is quite dangerous, because they feel backed into a corner and have no qualms "beating" their failed and defeated ideology into "plowshares"...plowshares that they feel could be reconstituted as fighting weapons.

And what this means is that we must not sit & rest on our laurels, but instead we must become even more viligent for the lies, fraud and deceit that the left perpetuates.

Things have not gotten easier by taking over all branches...things have actually gotten much harder.

The "left" now has nothing else to lose...we (on the right) not only have to follow up on our message to bring peace, prosperity, hope and safety to our Republic...we as Republicans have to follow through and deliver on it as well.

Rest assured, regardless of whether we are actually fullfilling our mandate or not...the opposition will be coming at us with everything that they have in their political arsenal...including the "kitchen sink".

So, we must be prepared to Govern (offense) first...then we must be prepared to defend (defense) second.

We simply can not afford to be passive in either of those arenas....

Sincerely

The Finman
