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!!
A reading from the First Book of Climaticus, beginning at the fourteenth verse of the Third Chapter:
14 - And so it was that the Lord looketh down upon the Eastern dwellers and observed the state of their activities.
15 - In a town upon the Potomac that goest by the name of Washington, the Lord noticed much activity and much consternation.
16 - The Lord noted there were of His kind which had foresaken the message and imputed that they, his children, were capable of usurping His province and were of thinking they, themselves but small and tiny creatures, were capable of controlling the majesty of the heavens.
17 - These kind referred to themselves as Democrats and Liberals, or a kind taken to referring to all changes in such things as the weather issues that were the results of their own activities.
18 - The Liberals referred to the product of His children by such names as Global Warming and Climate Change, but by all their nature they were saying the children of God were now capable of controlling God's work themselves.
19 - So the Lord sought to provide a message, a message that would surely humble His children and have them understand the power of His Almighty Hand.
20 - God looketh down upon the city on the Potomac and pondered what would be best for these folks, and he remembered the Great Flood once unleashed upon the land.
21 - In His ponderings, God did remember the Promise provided to His children after the Great Flood insofar as He indicated such an act would never again be visited upon the land.
22 - It was decided, however, that a small taste of the Great Flood might serve as a sufficient reminder that it is He and He alone that governs the heavens and controls the weather.
23 - So God decided that it would be visited upon the city on the Potomac and neighboring environs where the kind called Liberals frequent a continous rain, the rain lasting for not just forty days and forty nights, but until the population who had forgotten His message would be unable to remember days with sunshine.
24 - Thus the rains began, and the rains continued. Each day was visited upon the city on the Potomac more waters from the heavens.
25 - The waters issued forth in white form, in ice form, and in liquid form, but the waters came. And the children of God took notice, but those who called themselves Liberal continued to mock the work of the Lord, saying this, too, was the result of the activity of mere people.
26 - The people called Liberals ranted, and they raved. They took to the streets, and the yelled from the rooftops. Notice us, listen to us, they cried, all of this rain is the result of years upon years of human existance.
26 - But the children of God no longer listened, for they had understood all along that climate was the work of the Lord.
27 - The Children of God had come to notice, and so hath the Lord himself, the Liberals were all wet.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
First of all, in the last gubernatorial election McIntosh ran a terrible campaign. THREE offices, constant time eaten up in trips and locating people, lack of message (except for property taxes), poor event management, lack of security, etc. etc. He lost, even though Bush won Indiana by a large margin.
Now comes this election cycle. The new head of the Indiana GOP was McIntosh's fianancial guy, who was also a Pioneer for Bush. The last State Chairman "retired" after the election. So that means Bush's GOP guy is running the state GOP.
Mitch Daniels wants to run for governor. He is Bush's choice. But Bush doesn't SAY so exactly. What has happened so far?
The state GOP guy held a little meeting with the big-buck donors where they could meet Mitch. The guy who ran for liuetenant governor with McIntosh, Murray Clark, has abandoned his own gubernatorial campaign and is going to chair Mitch's campaign, and he has alread announced that he won't take the Lt. gov. position on the ticket.
That leaves three people opposing Daniels...McIntosh, a southern Indiana mayor, and a conservative activist. My bet is that the mayor will be asked to be on the ticket as lt. gov., pulling votes from southern Indiana. That will leave the far right of the party divided between McIntosh and the activist. Neither will win.
I think I see the White House in this, and I think it is a good thing. Lately the Indiana party has been divided about equally between old-timers who think it is nothing but a job, and conservative activists who do not understand how to get the middle to vote for them.
It will be interesting to see if my prediction comes true.
Actually you are on to something. Yes - let's ban all references to the Civil War, including everything that resulted from its outcome. Let's get rid of Amendment XIII and Amendment XIV. Let's reinstate the Dred Scott decision. Slavery is back in. The provisions of Article I that were not stricken by Amendments XIII and XIV are, of course, reinstated, as they regard apprortionment counting and slaves.
Yes, the left should be informed of all these things so they go into their decision-making with their eyes wide open and armed with facts.
Oh, yeah, forgot - the left is emotive, not logic, based.
Frankly I'm getting fed up with Fox News...if it isn't Laci Peterson...its the stupid car chases.
I hope you are not considering the Gore News Network.
It should be the ANN(Algore News Network), whose slogan is, "We provide the anesthesia, you fall asleep."
Put down the remote!
Step away from the TV!
Don't worry, help is on the way!
Oh, well. On to other things. I have the grandkids here and am taking them to the pool. Back later!
But to accept ANN as a potential alternative? Intervention is required!
And now a word from our sponsor.
Harry Truman said the only thing new under the political sun is the political history you don't know.
I go back to the 1968 campaign for a review of what happened to a mislead candidate in that primary race. The 'tator take on history and the Kerry Okie
It seems to me that claiming that Bush has mislead you is a very poor strategy for Kerry or any Democrat to pursue.
However, in all honesty, I have to admit that the 'tator has been miss lead a few times... but I was much younger, and she was very very beautiful.
