"Been there, done that...failed every time. Time for a bolder approach. I was disappointed when I heard Ashcroft say at his confirmation hearing that he would enforce whatever laws were on the books. That's very nice-sounding, but what do you do when the laws on the books are in direct contravention to the right to life and God's eternal laws? Care to tackle that one?"

You know, we have a running joke here in Alabama that the guy screaming loudly for our militia to go blow up some federal building is *ALWAYS* a cop or an ex-con on the payroll.

To which, we always reply: you first, and you alone.

So you go try "something bolder."

Call me when you get 50 people who will show up at a regular meeting. Write me when you elect your first candidate.

In the meantime, decades and decades will have passed...

A few more decades of the GOP and we won't be able to distinguish them from the Dumbacrats. Religious Freedom is already being assaulted by courts (while the spineless jellyfish of a GOP sits on their hands!). Ever hear of the Constitution - the exclusions clause (Art. 3, sec. 2). Congress has the authority and power to limit the courts jurisdiction on a number of issues - yet they don't do it. Why?

Our founding fathers pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor for their moral principles. Name one single worthless politician who will do that today! Sacrifice and honor and virtue - you never even hear those words today.

If you want to settle for the status quo...go ahead. I won't. I'll use whatever voice I have to influence change and a bolder approach. If the Presdient and Congress don't FIGHT for what is right, who will?
