Those of us who are conservative are also polite. Therefore we tend to not want to cause trouble in social and family discussions. So we tend to keep quiet.

No more. All of us need to expressing outrage. Use this murder of Nick Berg as a talking point. Speak out. Bring it up whenever you hear someone sounding weak. Attack the media at every opportunity...and say that they are greedy and interested in ratings (rather than liberal). Attack them for being greedy and ignoring the well-being of the troops.

I am done with being nice.

You've encouraged me. My little family (husband and two grown kids) are the only conservatives in our families. We never say a word. It's easier that way. NO MORE!

MY G_D, what took you so long? You carry some weight here Miss Marple, and you know you do, so I don't want to sound like a jerk, a bully or an ass, believe me, but you've been as much an ostrich with it's head in the sand as any number of others. I almost feel embarrassed for you for being able to make such a declaration only after today's events. What more is it going to take to get more to take a POV like yours?
Why does it take so long and why does it take something so drastic to get Americans to change their minds about all of this.
There have been people trying for years to get the people here at FR to wake up and smell the roses and you're just now deciding that you're done with being nice?

The following was done in sadness...I'm too afraid of what I'd write in my anger, which is only just now starting...
While we sat, safe in our homes, and argued back and forth a myriad of beliefs, opinions and concerns, a man was held captive by Islamic terrorists.
While we sat, safe in our homes, and argued back and forth a myriad of beliefs, opinions and concerns, a man had no knowledge of what was going on in the outside world.
While we sat, safe in our homes, and argued back and forth a myriad of beliefs, opinions and concerns, a man was brutally murdered, unbeknownst to us all.
How many of us, in retrospect, would concede to the actions taken against the "detainees" if just one of them could've given the location where that young man was being held at to prevent his murder?
Today is another day that will live in infamy.

Long Cut, since I see you're on this thread...the underlined section is FOR YOU!
