It is likely that some of you are rejoicing at the election results. As the parent of a 14-year-old son, I am filled with fear and trepidation at the results of yesterday's election. Americans have proven that they prefer as their president a deserter to one who volunteered, served his time and chose to exercise his first amendment rights when he returned to the "land of the free". They have said that pre-emptive strikes are the new way to go - that might DOES make right. They have adopted the cheerleader mentality. "Yea, yea, we are great! Give us war and hate, hate, hate!" Can't you hear Bush laughing all the way to the bank?
They have said, "We want an ultraconservative jerk to choose our next supreme court justices. Who cares about minorities anyway?" Ahhh, isn't it easy to forget that our forefathers (and mothers) were all minorities when they landed on these shores?
The slight majority of voting Americans has fueled a machine similar to the one which worked so well in Germany in the years leading up to, and during, World War II. How long will it take for them to see the intentions of this administration? Do they really think that the German people saw the evil they condoned?
Today, as my heart bleeds and my soul weeps, it has been hard to go on with the day. My consolation has been in teaching. Today we continued our study of the Bill of Rights. Maybe, by teaching my 4 kindergartners, 2 first graders, 1 second grader, and 5 third graders about their constitutional rights, I can instill in them a sense of what freedom can mean. Then, when these freedoms are gone, they will have memories of what has been and find the desire and strength to fight again for "freedom and justice for all".
Love to all,
(name of the lib)
Don't even bother trying to get it, there's absolutely no reasoning with them...they are a bunch of seething, hate-filled, foaming at the mouth lunatics, just thank God that Effin' and the Ambulance Chaser are not going to move into the White House...is this the end of leftism in America?
i don't believe that teaching base entry level Bill of Rights class to k-3rd graders automatically brings future abortion rights activists as madprof98 suggests.
But i do believe that we can prevent most of what happened to the returning vets of VN. i was a VN protester and proud of it. Perhaps even prouder of the no less than 7 street fights i was involved in PROTECTING the right of vets who chose to protest and took a lot of heat for it.
Yeah there were too many supposed peace-loving dumb f----
that didn't understand that those vets had more right to protest then they did. So some of us had to kick some ass!
The "true enemies" then were those that couldn't or refused to look at both sides of the issue. Let's not repeat that scenario again by not taking too strong of a right or wrong stand!
What a total idiot.
God help the little ones with such a mental case as their mentor!
Cuba or North Korea would be better examples.
The PRC isn't really so bad now that they have a largely capitalist economy. It was awful 25 years ago, but many parts of the major cities are fairly prosperous by Asian standards. Even outside of the cities what I've seen has been better than 3rd world standard. You can see worse in Mexico.
I am not talking about "protestors" - I did my share after I returned also because I was under the impression if you're sent to war, it is to WIN! I was too naive to believe that a president of the USA (LBJ) cared not a whit about the lives of Americans that were playing his "game". I protested the way the war was fought.
Anyway, I am refering to the ENEMIES of the USA that aided and abetted those who tried to kill me (they lost). Jane Fonda and other whores who went to communist north vietnam and cheered as the nva killed Americans. She freely gave the enemy ammunition to further destroy the POW's. SHE IS A TRAITOR!
I am refering to those like J f'n kerry who also met secretly with the enemy Communist north vietnames and representatibves of the south viet cong and attempted to wrtie terms of surrender that he and his dear close mento ted kennedy had drawn up to force the surrender of the USA to the communists. Nixon foiled that plan. KERRY IS A TRAITOR.
I am talking about the traitors like bill clinton who LOATHED America and even went to Communist Soviet Union to protest against the USA therefor aiding and abeting the enmy. HE IS A TRAITOR. He or his minions sold out the country's snuclear and communications and space secrets to our most dangerous enemies, COMMUNIST CHINA. The entire clinton administration ARE TRAITORS.
you want more?
Don;t give that crap about well gee, jf'n kerry went to vn - don't you respect that?
To tell the complete truth, I respected the North Vietnamese Army Regulars --- I KILLED them! I respect many of our enemies, but I would still KILL them also.
I do NOT respect TRAITORS - they deserve no respect nor do the deserve even the thought of a proper burial - they should be simply thrown in a hole and covered with swine entrails then left open for the carrion to feast.
I wonder what the quivering little lib is teaching them about the SECOND AMENDMENT?
<< It's hard to turn little kids into abortion rights activists, but I'm sure this guy will try his best. >>
It's harder still to be an idealogue abortionist and a bloody evolutionist.
But these psychopathological poor bastards manage to contort themselves around that little hypocrisy, too.
I can hear the discussion now. "You were a choice, if your mommy wanted to exercise her choice she could have had a doctor stick a spike through the back of your skull to suck out your brains and then throw you into the trash can. Now who supports a woman's right to chose?"
I haven't heard that phrase for eons. It's time to resurrect it.
How do you cure them?
