Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth
You absolutely got it wrong. It is the DBM and DNC that do the mush walk. This is when they actually (one day a year) agree that we were attacked unfairly. Tomorrow it will be Bush Hitler this and Darth Cheney that once more.
Yes!!! Don't accept the premise! Go, Mr. President!
Bush rules!!!!!!!!!!! if this is post 600 then Yeah!!!
I filled up at $2.39 over the weekend--down from $2.99 sometime last month.
Clinton's lies don't work on me. I thank God for the gift of discernment when it comes to him.
Yep.
And they are important because ???
Gosh, we need that Laura Ingraham smacking sound.
Me too. Screw them. Terrorists deserve death. Period.
We're still 2.99
Let's hope the country seizes on this respite in prices to aggressively pursue other energy sources ... we missed the opportunity 20 plus years ago... i pray we don't miss this one.
Bush is so great!!! He's really talking down to Lauer, and over his head to the American people. Very direct, no PC. Excellent!
Matt needed a little water squirted up his back side!
Matt Lauer is full of crapola liberal sympathy for terrorist. It needs to be purged!
President Bush got "rejecting the premise" from Tony. Absolutly! AND it works.
Thats cause you live in liberal looney land.
That's terrible. We've been below $2.50 for over a week.
