Excellent article.

However....this quote..."In Mr. Jefferson’s words, “Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever."....is a fake.

However, in Jefferson's work "Notes on the State of Virginia" Jefferson DOES write the following.....(which is actually a BETTER quote.

"And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever."
Thomas Jefferson

From the University of Virginia's Jefferson papers.

Their hands are covered in blood.


Between 10.000 and 20,000 of our men in uniform
died when in front of congress Kerry lied.

An unknown number of our POWS where tortured and
murdered when in front of congress Kerry lied.

Over one million Vietnamese and over ten million
Cambodians died when in front of congress Kerry lied.

Kerry's hands and the hands of those in congress
and the media who bought into Kerry's
lies are covered in blood.

Now look at your hands. If you are supporting
John Kerry in his bid for the office of President
of the United States your hands are also covered in
blood.

Actually, by the Tet offensive, we had lost about 10,000. However, there are 58,000 names on the WALL.

It was Cronkite who stated "we lost the war", which encouraged our enemies; it was Kerry who collaborated with our enemies and disgraced our military.

As far as I'm concerned .. in Vietnam alone .. Cronkite and Kerry have blood on their hands for 48,000 military lives.

Anyone have attribution on the Jefferson quote?

You'll find them written in the Jefferson Memorial. About as good an attribution as you'll find :)

Sherwin W. Dillard, Jr. put it very clearly. If this is not a man of God, I have lost my discernment for just words. He has put in not minced words exactly how I feel.

Thank you CovenBuster for posting this letter, and thank you philetus for showing this to me.

Hello, All!

Sherwin W. Dillard, Jr. here. Thanks to CovenBuster for thinking my letter worthy of posting. Not sure what current swept it your way, but I appreciate the kind comments of those who agree.

My letter was originally provoked by a series of letters and counter-letters in our OHIO newspaper debating "You Can't Be a Christian and a Democrat". After seeing the matter wrestled for days on end (and tired of the "don't judge" and "you're bigoted and intolerant" lines), I could no more forbear. It was in response to this matter that I wrote, the first line (not previously posted here) being:

"Whereas tolerance seems such a virtue among those bent on embarrassing themselves over whether Christians may vote for Democrats, tolerate this..."

Let's not stop praising God for sparing us John Kerry. It was TOO close!!!

Thanks again!
S.D.
