That our soldiers like this keep flying and they come home soon with honor.

Hugh Hewitt asks "Why vote for Bush and What's Wrong With Kerry?"
I'll leave it to others to tackle the second half of that question as they do so ably at the many links off Hugh's site.
The polls are open in California and after I finish this item, I'm going down to the Albertson's Supermarket across from the beach here in Laguna Beach and cast my ballot. It will be the first time I've ever voted for a Republican ticket in a National Election.
Before this, I voted Democrat right down the line. But I was asleep and I was foolish. Now, at least I can say I'm awake.
It's not that I'm overjoyed with George Bush (although at least one of my friends cannot be convinced otherwise), nor that I think the Republican Party is overwhelmingly admirable. None of that. It's never easy to vote when the only viable choices are two, but that's the deal right now. And my job today as a citizen is to choose. So I will choose George W. Bush.
There are many reasons why, but here's 50.
That our soldiers like this keep flying and they come home soon with honor.
That this hero will not have died in vain, and that our victory means a birth of freedom for Iraq.
That men like this are hunted to the ends of the Earth and destroyed.
That those who would do this to children and the innocent are utterly defeated.
That the mass graves vanish never to reappear, and that the animals are given swift and certain justice.
That our soldiers fight with valor and that biotoxins are kept from our land.
That quislings are shown in their true colors, and the carnage of war kept from our shores.
That the cowardice of kidnappers and hate-merchants be brought to a swift end.
That the cowardly killings in Spain are answered even though that country lacks the courage to answer them itself.
That even though many in Spain died in vain, none of our soldiers will.
That the American Flag will be seen around the world as it truly is -- the harbinger of freedom and the last, best hope of Earth.
That the secret assassins of tyranny continue to fall before the secret soldiers of Democracy.
That children may grow up knowing that soldiers came from far away, and gave their lives so that they could be free.
That evil is consumed unto ash, while the good rise up on the prayers of comrades.
That those who order the murder of children be exposed as the butchers they are.
That the creatures who would do this to an American or to any human be removed from the future of the world by any means necessary.
That the body bags of Beslan are never seen in Baltimore.
That the killers of babies are sent to the Pit.
That corrupt institutions are expunged from our soil, ..... and that... this,
... and this, ... and this,
... and this, ... and this,
... and this, ... and this,
... and this, ... and this,
... and this, ... and this,
never happen again.
And that Freedom reign.
Thanks for a fine ping, Meek. I tried to vote after work today but they closed at 5:00 in Collin County. Bummer. I'll get there at lunch tomorrow.
CONGRATS!
MUCH BETTER to wake up late
than never.
The world government will not be family friendly. SKERRY would love to grease the skids for it's arrival ASAP.
Traitorous, selfish idiot.
Oh, why thank you. I'll add you to my General Interest and
Texas list. They are my two biggest ones I use most often.Thanks. And if you decide down the road you want off, just let
me know. :^)

What a moving post. Thank you both.
I hate to have to ask this, but I guess it's the only way I'll find out. What exactly does the "ping" funtion at the bottom of the page do?
If you mean this: "Pings · Mail" at the center bottom, clicking on it takes you to your My Comments page where you can see pings (messages) to you.
Very nice analysis in pictures of the priorities that makes this election one of the most crucial in history.
Let Freedom Ring!
