Only Barely

Only Barely

In an election that the incumbent overcame a national recession and the damage that was committed economically and socially on 9/11, he should have won hands down on his reelection bid instead he won only by three percent.

With the other candidate at a time of war and national emergency having been a known traitor to his country meeting secretly with the enemy while still in uniform, a man that was so vain that while in the battlefield and fellow soldiers were dying daily this man had his crew film re-enactments of missions for his future political aspirations. A man that openly campaigned handing over US sovereignty and our nation’s protection to the UN. A man that gave perjured testimony before congress that gave aid and comfort to the enemy and yet running against such a man the incumbent only won by three percent.

This was an election where the challenger was a traitor, he boasted of having foreign leaders that wanted him elected as president, he accepted (By not publicly denouncing the endorsement of foreign officials Germany, France North Korea, Al Keida, Osama Bin Laden. It was an election that the challenger accepted (By not soundly rejecting) foreign influence and money in the election, It was an election where the challenger accepted (by not rejecting) 100 million dollars from foreign billionaires to try to influence the outcome of the election. And despite it would seem the efforts of the entire world to unseat George W. Bush despite the threat of terrorist attacks against those who would support the president despite all of Hollywood all of the press 51% of the American people rose to the occasion to stand with the president.

Without the courageous efforts of the swift boat vets and the rest of the Vietnam veterans that stood up in our nations greatest time of need since World-War-Two we salute you for without your gallant efforts all would have been lost for with your testimony and the reopening of old wounds for all to see the 3% margin of victory was achieved.

To the efforts of Conservative talk show hosts across the nation who’s tireless efforts in the trenches day in and day out – I say that we have been greatly enriched. For without you at least 100-200 stories perpetrated upon the nation by the liberal press would not have been overturned – We thank you for without your efforts tens of thousands would not have been wrenched from the jaws of liberalism. Without your effort we would have been lost.

To the efforts of bloggers like Jeffshead and many others who in the 11th hour when Dan Rather CBS and other networks put out blatantly false documents with the purpose to derailing the President’s reelection bid at a time when a candidate on their own would not have been able to respond, Without your work into the night we would have lost.

Without the 10% of democrats that stood in the election with the president without the 24% of Jews that stood with the president without the 14% of blacks that stood with the president we would have lost – And these people need to be specially commended, for many have reported being alienated by families and friends and even their churches to stand for what was right. Your selecting duty honor and country above the shifting tide of political correctness and liberalism is now historic. For many of us we can walk away from this election and go on with our lives – but with you this has been a life changing choice that you will have to live with for years to come. I thank you for your service to your country and trust that you will find people of like vision that you can exchange ideas with.

Without the security moms we would have lost, without the Christian coalition and the religious right showing up en mass we would have lost.

My point is that there were so many people and groups tireless labors that contributed to George Bush’s victory, without their stands and tireless efforts we would have lost. And secondly after having exerted everything that we against such an awful candidate as John Kerry we only won by three percent.

And most of all I thank God for his grace for allowing such a coalition to stand against the onslaught of Hollywood, Liberals, Homosexuals, the Liberal Media, the Terrorists, the UN, and seemingly all the nations of the world.

It is my opinion that while we have a sweet victory to be savored we have also received a grave warning. 3 % is not a rout 3% is not an overwhelming victory. It is enough to carry the day, but we need to roll up our sleeves and work at the grass roots level one heart and mind at a time to truly win back this nation.

It is further my opinion that we were put in this lamentable position as a nation because for three decades the Church has spent much of their efforts in building for themselves earthly kingdoms, and because of this they have failed to reach out as Gospel commands to the poor the lame and the halt, -- And instead they have preached to the rich and well to do from where they have received the bulk of their finances .

The Church has also mistakenly emphasized changes without and conformity to a outward pharisaical list of dos and don’ts – this opposed to introducing people to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and letting Him handle the all changes within that their converts can be a source of light to their family and community.

The Huns were at our nations gates and they will be back. We have received a temporary reprieve, we can not afford to squander this victory.

we must now do what we can to help the DNC either disappear entirely or fix itself internally.

I favor the latter option, as I do not believe the virtue of a Party can long endure lacking a LOYAL opposition.

But that is for next week, and the years which follow.

I intend to stand down and REST for a bit.

That is so true. If we don't start convincing people that they are lost and need Christ in their lives, we will see a continual erosion of morals that will result in the election of traitors, muderers, and homosexuals. Moral relativisim will slowly suffocate our nation if we don't find some absolute truths.

Bush won by four million votes, the largest margin in history.

I am by no means willing to rest my laurels, indeed the freshly empowered Pubbies should get to real business and pronto. However:

A Three-Plus-Percent win AND a Fifty-One-Plus Share of the vote overall is HUGE. Dubya did quite fine, don't minimize it.

The MSM gave Kerry 15 points.

Without the distortions and lies, we would have dominated.

Look at the tally's and note the very strong republican votes in even the most liberal of states.

We actually kicked butt all over.

Amen. Add another 5 points due to fraudulent Dem. voter scams, and you could say Bush won this walking away.

Keep exposing the bias of the liberal media. Until they start telling the truth conservative and moderate voters will be continue to have one arm tied behind them.

Actually, I take a different view. After the MSM and the Democrats treated Bush like a punching bag for the past 4 years, I'm actually amazed Bush won at all. Kerry plus his 527 support groups outspent Bush 2 to 1 in Ohio alone.
