WOW, that is an excellent one.
Don’t forget - we have such fine - stalwart defenders of Liberty like Arlen Specter, Olympia Snow, etc. on the GOP side - (Dang, we in deep doodoo here folks)
I, too, sent an email to Reid. Began to send one to McConnell since I didn’t hear him on TV denouncing Reid’s comment. But, he does have comment on his website. More Republicans need to get TV time to denounce Reid’s comment.
I also called Congressman Adam Putnam, Fla, to compliment him for speaking out against Reid’s disgraceful comment.
Putnam is a GOOD GUY....seen him several times on Fox news standing up for the President’s policies.
You know you are asking the impossible at this moment. We should start somewhere and this somewhere is by first to start telling them that they are traitors who are providing aid and comfort to the enemy.
Excellent idea. I will start first thing in the morning.
Making a change in the bylaws would be a major task but in this day and age we have to demand that a backbone be found.
Amen!
Sad. Truly sad that the RATS have done this to our great nation. I’m saddened also by the lack of action by the Republicans.
Have a look at this and perhaps it will help:

The tone on these threads has become so negative, I have almost given up trying to post on freerepublic. Have fun...

Do not give up, we need to fight the negativism and defeatism on FR that is being propagated by a small but vocal minority.
Do you really think the likes of Warner, Hagel, Snowe et al. are going to speak out on this treason?
The Senate club values its collegiality more than American security. Reid will actually be rewarded by this - it’s already started in the MSM. I’ll be surprised if more than 5 Republicans join McConnell in expressing outrage.
Sorry jveritas, but these posts are reflecting a sad reality, not despair. They have seen this act for years.
Not only will the Republicans not do anything the MSM will not report this. Fox News has it on their website but not a mention on CNN website.
Thank you.
Good job! Here’s my email Dingy Harry..
Mr. Reid, I will be eternally grateful that you were not making decisions during World War 2. Had people like you been in government at that time we probably wouldn’t be pledging allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
Do you not understand your comment ‘the war is lost’ encourages our enemies and further endangers our troops and innocent Iraqis?
Do you not understand your comments demoralize young men and women who VOLUNTEERED to help protect our country and freedom?
Do you not understand IF the U.S. notifies our enemies of the date we will leave, they will set their alarm to march into Iraq the day after we leave? Do you not understand what the people of Iraq will face if Iran, Al-Queda, Bin Laden, etc take over Iraq?
Do you not understand IF the U.S. does not WIN in Iraq, our enemies will perceive us a very weak nation and will come knocking on our doors in the U.S.?
Mr. Reid, I believe, YOU DO UNDERSTAND which leads me to believe YOU DON’T CARE. Seems what you do care about is yourself and your own agenda...and at the top of your agenda is BRING DOWN GEORGE W. BUSH.
What you and your cohorts should understand, Mr. Reid, is that our enemies respect STRENGTH. Mr. Reid, how about finding some integrity and courage and stand up for these great United States. Statements like ‘the war is lost’ shows weakness and emboldens those who want to kill Americans.....simply because we are Americans. If we ever have to face our enemies on our shores, weak willed and self centered Senators will look for a George W. Bush to help protect them. After all, Senator Reid, you are an American... aren’t you?
Mr. Reid, your comment ‘the war is lost’ is reprehensible and an insult to our military. You should be very ashamed....better yet, you should resign.
I called my two senator’s offices this afternoon and let em have it. I have sent my emails.
I had a venting chat with my Rep’s office...John Mica (Fl) is terrific and I call there about once a month...
After that I had a good talk with some soldiers..who reminded me they vote:)
Some may not speak out but many will if we support them to speak out.
WHY?
If it is so clear......why have there been no charges filed?
“start telling them they are traitors?”
If someone told me I was a traitor I’d tell them to PUT UP OR SHUT UP and then I would sue them for their public accusations!
C’mon now, why won’t any federal prosecutor bring charges against those whom you claim are traitors??????????
the “war” can be won if the war’s opposition can be proved to be committing treason................right?
Another excellent e-mail.
I’m not going to waste the cost of the phone calls. The Dems certainly won’t do anything and the GOP does not have the ‘nads to do anything, so, why bother?
