 This is a great PR blow against the left wing maggots who use PC revisionist history for their agendas.

I do not hate the "Joos" or Jews. There are plenty of folks of that persuasion who are great patriots ... Aaron Zelman of JPFO comes to mind immediately.

What I will fight to my last breath is the people, of whatever persuasion, who would destroy our Republic and the bedrock foundational principles of unalienable rights, free will and morality that it is based upon ... and I don't care from what direction they come.

Ratner and his ilk have certainly showed themselves to be such a group. The "3rd Wayers", the UN Elitists, anyone looking towards the Global Governance solution which costs of our soveriegnty and way of life, any group that would deny any American or group of Americans their God given rights, etc.

Regards.

This is outstanding Jeff, over 40,000 signatures. I think you are right to keep pouring it on, liberals are like cockroaches stomp them and they still skitter away to re-group. I've taken heart over all the fronts people are fighting back on in the past month or so.

From this petition, to the gentleman whose case comes before congress questioning the ratification of the Income Tax, it would be wonderful if our ancestors have saved us once again, to schools being challenged on teaching Islam, to Professors being challenged on their radical leftist preaching to captive audiences, to that little church's win against the ACLU, to teachers demanding their dues from their union that went to pay into a political agenda, so many fronts that ordinary Americans are fighting back on. It's really inspiring and I wish there was a organization that we could all join that would file class action law suits on behalf of citizens for redress of grievances in order to roll back un-Constitutional laws.

Neither do I, as I am one.

It is really, really lonely being in a small minority of a minority. My politics are to the right of Lenin and Marx which makes me an enemy (actually a non-person which is how Federation Jews treat other Jews who "don't fit in", i.e. are to the right of Marx or Lenin).

The statue incident is just example 4,090,039 why ALL Jews are lumped together and so hated.

If all the lefty commie Jews left just NY, Hitlery wouldn't be in power, the statue would represent GASP! 3 white males. The anti-gun, anti-Freedom, anti-American antics of chucky schumer and his ilk would never occur. That's just for starters.

America for Americans! Not commies, Jewish or otherwise.

Hopefully all of this represents just the tip of the iceberg. Gotta keep fighting in any case.

Well then, if you haven't already, join up with Aaron over at www.jpfo.org and go after it.

America is for Americans, of whatever stripe, who are loyal to and cherish the principles that made her free ... and define her to this day ... despite the best efforts of enemies foreign and domestic, abroad and here at home.

Anyone with that attitude in their heart is a friend of mine, and of liberty IMHO.

Here's email I received from a friend:

To: The Freepers From: The wife of a New York City Firefighter

My husband was at ground zero on September 11 when the second building collapsed. He came home that day....Thank God....

We want to thank you for all of your efforts on behalf of preserving history. We appreciate the support that so many wonderful Americans have shown and continue to show in the wake of the horror of 9/11.

My husband and I were deeply saddened by the revised statue of the three firefighters ... In no uncertain terms it is a rewrite of history. Basically what the powers that be have succeeded in doing with their politically correct nonsense is to take a deeply moving experience, a true show of patriotism, the embodiment of what so many Americans were feeling at the time and turn it into a racial issue.

My husband and I would rather they pull the statue it doesn't seem to be needed....Let the pictures of 9/11, the crater at Ground Zero, the memories of 343 funerals, the empty turnout gear, the no longer used helmets carried by greiving children and widows.......let that be the tribute to their heroism....let it be in the hearts and minds of the families of the lost, the surviving firefighters who came home from ground zero covered in dust, soot, and the blood of the dead to cry like children over the horrors they witnessed. Let the tribute to our FDNY heros be in the minds of the wives and children who cried and prayed waiting for word from their men, and cried and prayed when they did hear from them. Let it be in the hearts and minds of the thousands that turned out and lined the route to Ground Zero to cheer their heros, the thousands who sent socks, boots, gloves, food, and water. The thousands who wrote checks and heartwarming letters of encouragement. Let their tribute remain in the heats and minds of the thousands who got so choked up watching the grief of the men who lost their "brothers" that they felt as though it was their loss as well.

Throw away the statue....it is an insult to the heros of 9/11 because it takes what they were all about....Heroism, Love of Country, Unselfish concern for others, and turns it into an issue of race.......It takes something that united our country in love, patriotism, concern, outreach, and true empathy for those hurting and turns it into something that divides us.

In the meantime my Freeper Friends....thank you again from the bottom of our hearts....just knowing you're out there is a comfort. Keep doing what you do and thanks for spreading the word regarding the statue.

It's a bit late in coming, but good to see it at last. This business of substituting perception for reality has irked me beyond the point of caring about it--sort of like a sore joint that I'd given up trying to get healed. Remember, this is a nation where the Hero of Chappaquiddick is still a senator, and where a notorious plagiarist is still referred to as "Doctor" and memorialized with a national holiday. Other examples will suggest themselves without any prompting on my part.

I may take a wild shot at guessing why this came to be so. Reality is not malleable, but public perception is. Those who would lord over all that they see must condition us to take the funny money of perception (as managed by themselves) in preference to the realities which they cannot manage. We are trained to distrust and denigrate the evidence of our own eyes, and to see what we supposedly ought, rather than what actually is.

Yes, it is continuing and has gathered another 6-8000 signatures today.

We'll keep it going as long as people keep signing.

This attempt, in the wake of 911, is a "bridge too far" in their manipulative and revisionism efforts. Perhaps, just perhaps, if we are virtuous enough, work hard enough and if God in Heaven is willing, we can start rolling things back from here.

we can but try and then place in His worthy hands.
