BTW -- We decided not to put a sample letter on this thread because Republicans are not seminar type people that have to have their letters written for them like the DemocRATs. Recently the pro-RAT letters in my paper seem to have been written by the same individual with different names -- all sound alike!

With the original thinkers of Free Republic -- NO SAMPLE LETTERS NEEDED!

Another favor, please search the Internet for positive articles on the President. All these negative articles that keep appearing on here need some balance.

Thanks!

BUSH + CHENEY = VICTORY '04

"All these negative articles that keep appearing on here need some balance."

They sure do!! Although the following article originated in the LA Times, it is a positive assessment of President Bush's eloquent speech at Goree Island yesterday.

History does repeat itself.. or as Reagan said to Jimmy Carter, "There you go again!"

After the eight year loss of the white house to Ike, the Democrats moved to the right a bit with JFK. When in his inaugural speech JFK asked, "Ask Not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your county" he sounded a lot more right than left. JFK was certainly to the right of Adlai Stevensoon.

With JFK and then LBJ holding the presidency for 8 years, and then a NIXON win in 68, by 1972 the Democrats were ready to make a sharp turn left. And the McGoven debacle did indeed happen. The leftist Democrats think if a "moderate" HHH could not beat the HATED NIXON, then they needed to turn left... .and they did.

After the 1972 shellacking, the Democrats moved a bit to the right with a former Southern Governor ... Jimmy the CArter. Just 6 years earlier Jimmy had refused to condem the racial views of segregationist George Wallace. In 1970 Jimmy's campaign even published scandalous pictures of his primary opponent in the race for Georgia's governorship. ? Jimmy actually published pictures of his opponent shaking hands with a black man... Gash gasp ..Jimmy ment to imply that they couldnt tolerate that in good ole Georgia ... could we Jimmy?

But after 4 years of Jimmy and eight popular years of Reagan, they reached south for a southern moderate named Bill Clinton.

But after Gore got beat they are doing the same thing they did after the HHH defeat. The are making a sharp turn left. The Democrats are embraceing Dean much like they did George McGovern 30 years ago.

It is as if the Democrats never learn from their mistakes.

I have often thought that National Democrats should marry the daughters of California Republicans. Their offspring would provide free enterainment for us all.

A CHALLENGE!!
Recovering_Democrat's Goal:
$2000 to Bush-Cheney '04!


Amount donated so far:
$225


(11.25% of goal reached!)

I challenge fellow FREEPers to set a goal, and post it on this thread....it doesn't have to be the maximum...make it a challenge, though! I'm going to be giving in increments...bit by bit, as I do not have $2000 to give in one fell swoop! Fellow FREEPers, do the same! Let's make a record of how we're doing in supporting our Commander In Chief!!!!

That's a good one! California Republican leadership makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up -- they don't seem to have a clue!

Dean is a lot like McGovern and would expect the same outcome! Just want them to shoot themselves in the foot and we pick up Senate seats in addition to the White House and more seats in the House! Dean could do that for us!

COUNTDOWN (481 DAYS) TO VICTORY

Victory? Victory for whom? You must mean the Republicans, because I am having serious doubts whether it will be a victory for Conservatives.

Rather than writing the press with a pro-Bush message, I suggest Freepers write the White House with a pro-Conservative message.

Ask Mr. Bush to start supporting a Conservative agenda such as:

1) Protecting our borders from foreign invasion.

2) Supporting traditional family values by speaking out against the rabid homosexual activist agenda.

3) Protecting our industry (what little we have left) from unbalanced trade practices, especially with those countries that employ slave labor. (It was wrong when the Nazis did it, and it’s still wrong.)

4) Avoid Hillary-like prescription drug plan paid by federal income tax.

5) Not send $15 Billion dollars of our money to sub-Sahara Africa (that’s $150 of YOUR money if you’re an average Joe) just because those people can’t get it through there heads that you’re not suppose to stick things where they don’t belong.

6) Stay out of entanglements in Africa.

Does no one remember what happened to the Romans? They had a great empire going. But, then they got cocky and sent their great military to far-flung corners of the world. Barbarians moved in and took over. History repeats itself. People who believe they are exempt from that rule only accelerate their doom.

With a little thought, I’m sure you can come up with a few of your own.

As for those who’d say, “Well, it would be a victory over the Democrats.” - I say the lesser of two evils is not cause for celebration.

The Los Angeles Times in particular needs more letters to the editor supporting President Bush. They seem to dedicate the top third of the letters section with shrill anti-Bush letters every day.

Do not expect to win any popularity contests with your post. No one is much bothered with the movement to the left here

Here is a little something that speaks volumes to me.

    In a speech at an annual conference sponsored by the 
    Allen & Co. investment bank, Redstone said advertising 
    spending is coming back after a long slump.

    "The media industry is on the threshold of 
    breakthrough performance," Redstone said, briefing 
    reporters on his speech as he emerged from the 
    conference center. "We're in for an advertising 
    rebound. ... I'm very optimistic about Viacom, but   
    also for the industry."

I spent many years in media management. Advertising revenues go down about 6 months before the economy tanks. They start to recover about 6 months before the economy starts to boom again.

This looks to me like 2004 is going to be a good year. An Advertising rebound is a leading indicator that I have never known to be wrong. There will be more and more favorable economic news every month in 2004.

When companies get ready to ramp up production, they first ramp up advertising. That means in a couple of months the call backs to work start, and the new hires start happening. By next summer it should be prosperity city.

Oh and don't worry about a Vietnam Style Quagmire in Iraq like we had in both Korea and NAM. For a quagmire to happen the enemy has to have a safe haven. In Korea it was the area North of the Yalu river.The bad guys could go north and we were not allowed to attack them from the ground or air.

In Nam the North Vietnamese had safe havens in the North. When we attacked they retreated. When we dug in they attacked back over the border. The safe haven is a huge advantage that can not be overcome short of getting rid of the safe haven.

In Iraq there is no safe haven. Syria, Saudi,Iran,and Kuwait are not safe havens.With out a safe haven there can be no quagmire.

We are taking out hundreds of the bad guys for every one of us. The media is not reporting it in that way, but we are. In not too long a time Iraq will be peaceful, because the terrorist will have all been either killed or imprisoned.

A booming economy, will take Bush in the the mid 60's approval rating by the election next fall.

Bush could win 65 percent of the vote. Reagan won 58 percent when his approval numbers were at 58 percent. If Bush gets over sixty he will have coattails of a length not seen in over 80 years. It is looking more and more like 2004 will be known as the year of the Decline and Fall of the Democratic party. You should do a book on that subject.

We need a new opposition party... Why not call it the "Lets Party" party and have MTV head it up. They would never win... and never care.

Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper in support of President Bush!

Love to, but...

My local paper, the Louisville Courier-Journal, is a subsidiary of USA Today. Their editorial staff is vitriolic in their contempt of the President, and pro-Bush letters are routinely spiked.

Their ombudsman, a liberal heffer, admitted to this practice on a local talk radio program several months back.

See what we're up against?
