Nailed It!
Moral Clarity BUMP !

This ping list is not author-specific for articles I'd like to share. Some for perfect moral clarity, some for provocative thoughts; or simply interesting articles I'd hate to miss myself. (I don't have to agree with the author 100% to feel the need to share an article.) I will try not to abuse the ping list and not to annoy you too much, but on some days there is more of good stuff that is worthy attention. I keep separate PING lists for my favorite authors Victor Davis Hanson, Lee Harris, David Warren, Orson Scott Card. You are welcome in or out, just freepmail me (and note which PING list you are talking about).

But since the campaign began it has emerged that Kerry’s origins are not in the Boston-Irish community but in Germanic Judaism. Kerry knew this all along, and deliberately concealed it for political purposes. If a man will mislead about such matters, he will mislead about anything.

Karl Marx did the exact same thing ...

Please add me to your PING list...thanks!

Fabulous! Thanks for the post. "Adamantine determination," "vexatious litigation," Oh how I love the British!

Not to mention that he is absolutely right. We are at a nexus--we either recognize that our mission as the world's sole superpower is to combat Islamic fascism for however long it takes to defeat it or we sink into complacent decline...leading to a future that looks an awful lot like France, overtaken by fanatical Muslim immigrants, literally being held at knifepoint and made to capitulate to their particular brand of fascism.

Excellent post.

If you want to find his books in a library near you, I highly recommend trying out WorldCatLibraries.org. WCL connects to online library catalogs world-wide. WCL publishes its own catalog online so it's accessible from Google. To find a book or author in a library near you, search on Google and add site:worldcatlibraries.org to your search string. For example, click to search for Paul Johnson history books. Then click one of the Google links to find a book in a library near a specified zip code.

For library users, WorldCatLibraries.org is the most amazing and powerful tool. It gives Google access to library catalogs everywhere.

Pass it on.

For me there is no doubt who should be President. Bush is the right person for today's crisis. A crisis requiring unwavering step by step marching, pounding, drum beating and direction.

Thanks for the post. Johnson's books are an excellent read, too - and I don't usually recommend any modern historians!

"vexatious litigation"

The Brits say it like that because they don't say 'legal B*^^ S(&^'

Thank you for posting this. I teared up at the description of the abuse our President has been facing and the strength with which he has been withstanding it.

"He has, it seems to me, the moral right to ask American voters to give him the mandate to finish the job he has started. "

Amen
