I like his remarks, but if we choose poorly there won't be 50 more years of history.
Word. Anyone from the MSM lurking?
Laud and credit. Well spoken.
Thanks ezoni. I had heard it on Kirby's show Fri while out and about. Very well versed and put. Have yet to hear better. It really is this important. Many do not beilieve but I do.
During recent weeks I have been thinking that perhaps the primary difference between President Bush and Kerry (and correspondingly the constituencies they represent) is that President Bush embodies the fundamental characteristics of what being an American is. While Kerry perhaps sees himself not as an American (that is, a United States American) but rather sees himself as a "global" or "international" person. His continual litany about "being" part of the "global" [community] and looking for satisfaction of a "global test" seems to scream that he doesn't really see himself as being like "us". He wants us to become European in our outlook and our approach to life.
This is totally opposite to what we are - what we are as a people. We are not talk-yourself-to-death types. We are doers and problem-solvers and innovators. When we stop being who we are we will have lost the essence of what has made our country unique and successful. We simply are not a people who easily acquiesce (sp?) or appease, or put up with nonsense. Kerry wants us to stop being who we fundamentally are. (Sorry to be so long-winded)
Received this by email a couple of days ago and have been impressed. So many Americans has risen to the challenge and found the power to express their views. I hope to read more of this man's writing in the future. We need to share this with more people
This is such a great article. It needs to be read by as many people as possible. An idea...can we reprint this, put a heading on it like READ THIS BEFORE YOU VOTE..PLEASE
and challenge every Freeper and conservative site to ask people to make 100 copies, and distribute them at your local mall or grocery store etc. I'm sure ready to do this...anyone else have other ideas?
bttt
Go to Central Washington University's website and see if you can find Matthew Manweller as a member of the faculty. Supposedly, this was published in the Ellensburg (WA) Daily Record. Go to THAT website and see if you can find any mention of this article.
More GOP dirty tricks. This is the spirit of the people behind this administration.
Good luck on reading more from Matthew Manweller. As far as I've been able to find, there's no such person. See for yourself at www.cwu.edu
It's a lie.
New Bush campaign slogan:
You can fool some of the people all of the time.
Those are the ones we want.

Eat Zot! and Die troll.
Thank you. I am so sick of the dirty tricks by the Kerry campaign. They truly are desperate.
Everyone - Get out that vote to soundly defeat Kerry!!!!!!
Admins got your back - bttt
Besides, read the words. They are truth and they are life. I'm glad someone exposed the canned "liberal" deception, but this article also stands on it's own merits, regardless of who the author is. Do you have any clue as to what is at stake on November 2nd? Try the movie "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal". Kerry is a man that would literally sell out his own Mother to get more power. It is not just a 30 year story, it is just the beginning of his ongoing legacy of deception. He would sell out the American people as well. The thing I cannot understand is when did any of the subversive "liberal" politicians ever do you any favors? They always claim they will, but they never get around to it and the major media keeps you so distracted you never notice. Wakeup Bro, your country is swirling in the bowl. President Bush is desperately trying to save it because he loves this country. John Kerry is trying to secure the water rights before it is all gone!
Start looking at what President Bush had to deal with this past 4 years and what he has accomplished. Any moron can make a list of what hasn't been done. Try looking at what the man has done and what our precious men and women in uniform have accomplished. Try encouraging our country and building them up, instead of always tearing them down. What is wrong with this country...a bunch jobs showed up in the sixties and they never mature or go away or something.
Just do a modicum of research into John Kerry's true record. The man is literally nothing! He lies incessantly. He could be convicted of hundreds of counts of making false statements, solely on the basis of readily available public recordings...all in context! He exists for his own gratification...not yours. He is a traitor and once a traitor, always... The Swift Boat Vets are real people...real heros.
Listen, pay attention
our country depends on it. Dont bother with ABS, CBS, NBS and CNNBS
yes, it is all owned by a tiny few and it has one big fat anti-American agenda. Remember, like the man said, America is not a place, it is an ideal. Stop trying to change it
change yourself or leave.
Hey way to shoot off your mouth without knowing the facts. A true testimony to the liberal agenda. Maybe you should run for president in 2008. The Democrats are always looking for a few good candidates who can sling mud with no facts to back it up. Most liberals probably read your comments and ran to tell everyone they know without checking for themselves to find out you are dead wrong. I don't see anymore posts from you?? Why not??
