Ronnie, you are so right. Hillary comes out looking oh-so responsible and mature after all of this.
We need to continue making a reasoned and restrained case to the American people that her Third Way is dangerous. The 3rd way is much more than taxation with representation, i.e. programs that most Americans believe we need. Her brand of socialism is not much different from Kerry's, and it, as Jane Fonda had said during the war, and as others have said, is all about adopting those Marxist tenets that the American left found acceptable in the communism we were opposing.
The more money these government officials get for their "it takes a village" style programs, the more power they get. The more power they get, the more influence they have. The more influence they have, the more they can start bribing America's poor and less fortunate while brainwashing them into believing that their condition is a direct result of Capitalism's irresponsibility.
What Hillary and Kerry are failing to tell us is that we could solve most of these problems with Capitalism without asking Karl Marx for any advice at all. Hillary and Kerry are pushing us in a direction of massive nationalization, from healthcare (one of our biggest industries) to education. We need to get the word out that there are alternatives. Look at Senator Bill Frist's speeches at the Convention. I actually think Frist is our brightest and most effective spokesman today. His care for the ordinary people is evident, and he was able to articulate how our changes to taxation and individual discretionary medical savings was magnificent. Let's continue looking to the privatization positives when we contrast the negatives of our opponent's third way...
In any case, Ronnie I think you're almost there. For 35 years you've been fighting communism here and abroad. When Kerry is defeated, many other barriers will fall. If he is not, you have still managed to get out a powerful message to the American people. By the way, I saw someone with a Free Vietnam flag in the audience of the RNC convention while I was watching it!
