Good afternoon to all the Finest on this day before Election Day.
Our troops are placing their lives on the line so that we may have the privilege of voting for the President, or his opponent (who has been endorsed by Al Queda and the French).
May the Good Lord bless all our men and women who serve, in and out of uniform ... may He bless our Commander-In-Chief ... and, may He curse and smite their enemies, domestic and foreign.
Heavenly Father, we have so much to pray for these days. We lift our fervent prayers to You, asking for a decisive win for President Bush tomorrow and for keeping our troops safe every day. In our hearts we know that one favor is deeply connected to the other. We also have every faith that You will watch over, protect and guide us, Your servants, and especially our troops, no matter what the outcome of tomorrow's vote may be. Please also bless the families of the troops who give themselves so selflessly to protect our freedoms.
Please grant the favors for which we ask. We promise to continue to lift our hearts and prayers to You each day for all of eternity in joyous thanks when we realize the fruits of our prayers. We ask these favors as Your humble and contrite servants in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
Amen.

AFTER-ACTION REPORT: SOLO FREEP OF DEMOCRAT RALLY IN W.VA.
West Virginia Democrats held a widely publicized Kerry rally this morning at the HQ of the Independent Steelworkers Union in Weirton. Scheduled to speak were Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV (the stupidest man in the Senate, not to be confused with the stupidest man in the House, Patrick Kennedy), Ted Kennedy, former Gov. Caperton (looking for young boys but finding only old steelworkers), Rep. Alan B. Mollohan (glad Patches is secure in first place, just ahead of him) and others. Press releases indicated the rally would start at 9:30 a.m.
I had made a sign reading, "John Kerry is Bin Laden's man; Bush is mine," but then decided to make a more positive and steel-oriented poster, so on the other side of the Bin Laden sign I wrote, "Bush is PRO- steel, -coal, -life, -2nd Amendment, -freedom!" I also had a Bush/Cheney placard.
Parking a couple of blocks away from the ISU hall, I meandered over at around 9:15 a.m. Chairs were set up outside, but only a handful of people were milling around. I approached a police car and asked the officers if I could protest across the street. I said this was not an organized protest, and I'd probably be the only Bush supporter. The cop said, "They don't seem very organized here," nodding toward the ISU hall. I refrained from replying, "That's because they're Democrats." He said, "You can stand wherever you want," and I thanked him kindly.
The first reaction I got from anyone was a motorist who slowed and told me, "I'm a Bush supporter too!" The second was a woman who walked over from the union hall and asked, "Why aren't you at Burgettstown?" (in nearby Pa., where the president was appearing this a.m.). I replied that it's a long drive, and I'd already seen the president several times this year.
Another woman retrieved from a van covered with bumper stickers (Catholics for Kerry, No Bush No Dick, etc.) some flyers and offered me one. She said it explained how Kerry's bishop had said we could vote for Kerry in good conscience. I said I'm not Catholic, and will vote for Mr. Bush in good conscience, but thanks for the information.
All the while, I displayed the "Bush is Pro-steel, etc." sign and the Bush/Cheney placard, but one fellow noticed there was something written on the back and asked to see it. He asked, "Do you really believe that?" and I replied, "Kerry is the only candidate Bin Laden has endorsed." He said he was a retired steelworker, and I commented that Kerry already had promised not to lift a finger to help steel, i.e., impose tariffs, the way Bush did, which gave the steelmakers breathing room to get back on their feet after nearly dying during the Clinton years.
Another motorist passed and gave me a thumbs up.
A local sheriff pulled up in his official vehicle. He's not running for reelection, but is running for another county seat. A fellow running for his vacated position was with him (he's not currently a deputy, but a civilian). I wondered if it was okay to campaign in a county vehicle, but didn't say anything to him, although I'm sure he recognized me.
One of the steelworkers came over to me and was very friendly, talking about how wonderful a system we have where we can express our views, blahblahblah.
Just then, Rockefeller drove up - in a brand new top-of-the-line Toyota SUV! "Hmmm, a foreign car," I said to Mr. Smarmy Steelworker. "What's wrong with that?" he said, "Children of all countries and all colors need to be fed, too," he added.
It was a "grab the duct tape" moment, and I know I was looking at him like he had three heads. What in the world was he talking about? All I could think of to say was, "Well, I drive an American car - a Ford, made in Kansas City by union workers" (hoping mightily that same vehicle was not being vandalized at that very moment).
Rockefeller saw my signs, incidentally, inasmuch as he passed not eight feet from me, and tried to pretend he hadn't.
About this time, a couple of especially shrill female Kerry supporters hoisted a huge sign reading, "1100 killed, 8000 wounded, and for what?" and aimed it in my direction. Hmmm, I thought to myself, how about freedom, national security and ending a genocidal dictatorship?
Then they started chanting, "Read it and weep." Good grief, I weep for your utter stupidity, ladies. Having failed to draw a response from me, they started with "Like father, like son," and "Teflon George." I honestly tried to ignore them, but it was hard not to shake my head in amazement. Another motorist stopped and told me she was a Bush supporter, adding, "Good for you!"
By this time, it was after 10 a.m. and the rally had yet to begin. Someone announced that all the speakers were there, and that they'd get started in 5 or 10 minutes. After 15 minutes, I decided I had too many other things to do today and, besides, all 75 - yes, a whopping 75 in attendance, I counted - already had seen my signs. So I walked away, the harpies cheered. I turned, gave them the three-finger "W" and shouted, "Four more years!"
So, even though I didn't hear the same old lying nonsense spewing from the mouths of the Dem politicos, I was glad I went.
That's the sweetest picture.

Well, you can bank on THAT! And it will be more than a few. In a fair and square election, I have no doubt that Bush would win by a large margin.
Hang tight, darlin'. : )
I'm trying! But it just breaks my heart to think that our military might have to serve under that traitor. I think that is what is concerning me the most.
The baby is adorable!
I knew you were a nice guy, I didn't know you were such a sexy buy. Heart breaker!
You'll know by 11:00 tomorrow night. TRUST me! :o)
