“Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.”

JOHN QUINCY ADAMS

OK Lake. Now tell me honestly. Do you believe that the above is just a collection of meaningless feel-good words or do you believe they mean what they say? Further, do you believe that one of the founding fathers of this nation, faced with a situation far more dangerous than we are, was wrong?

If you think it’s all BS and Adams was full of it, fine. But if you believe in what he was saying and believe in him as an American patriot, then you and the ABOs have one hell of a conflict. And I have to ask who has more credibility? Adams or the modern talk show hosts/ABO supporters?

This is quite simple. Adams was right or he was wrong. Which do you personally feel to be the case Lake? Open question really...which does any ABO feel is the case?

Further, we don’t have to speculate about what Reagan or Goldwater would have said (as many ABOs have lately). We KNOW because we have their words and actions to guide us. And none of those words or actions followed the ABO arguement. Quite the contrary. They all followed Adams.

What little I know about Adams is he was a great and very smart man.

I also know he wouldn't be dumb enough (particularly in the situation we find ourselves today) to allow a tried and true tyrant who wants to destroy every good and decent thing in the US to remain in the highest office in the land.
