Well, sometimes, especially on highly charged issues like this, I’d rather just keep as light a hand on the tiller as possible to let the debate rage on. I always hope that most of our members share our common core values and it will eventually shakeout to a conservative consensus. In this case it did not. We’re now involved in a war of ideology and y’all know where I stand in that battle. We’ve received many shots over the bow during the last few months and you should know that we’re not going to turn tail and run. We’ve cleared the decks for battle.

Weve cleared the decks for battle. That's tagline material right there.

Weve received many shots over the bow during the last few months and you should know that were not going to turn tail and run. Weve cleared the decks for battle. Onward,
Though much is taken, much abides;
and tho' We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven;
that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
From Ulysses, Lord Alfred Tennyson
