"This nation will defend ourselves and freedom at any price," Bush told students Translation=Bush hits Dacshle right between the eyes in one clean shot.

I saw W live on Fox. It was a terrific speech. W's really hitting his stride in his delivery. Several extemporaneous and ad lib remarks gave his speech more color and substance. The kids loved him! The teachers were rather non-plussed in their appreciation of W. My wife, who is a native MN'an told me that MN is the most left-wing state in the country.... so I should "not be surprised that the teachers were so stoic, despite the fact that W's initial remarks were radiant towards the school and its teachers."
Oh well...

I like how they say "Bush's war on terrorism" what a bunch of bull after 9/11 if your an American and don't want those ****ers dead then you must not give a crap about anything. Daschle is barking up the wrong tree in attacking Bush on the war. He is probably just pandering to his far lefty base which is about all the dimocraps have left.

MN is an ultra-left wing state --- however, this leftist philosophy is really just confined to the major metro areas. I was born and raised in Mpls years ago, when it was actually a pretty good place to live. We now have moved away from the metro area to outstate MN, the main reason for a better place to raise the kids.
Eden Prairie is in the middle of liberalville, but the rest of MN (outside of the range) is quite conservative.

MN is way lefty - all the lefty wackos think it's paradise. I have to go up there 5 or 6 times a year. In my opinion it's a frozen hellhole where your not allowed to make your own decisions.

John F. Kennedy said it well:
"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe (little did JFK know he would be speaking of his own brother!) to assure the survival and the success of liberty."

You know what? I am sick and tired of seeing FR donation requests on
every thread. Ask JR: I frequently donate and even have a monthly recurring payment.
I simply am fed up with this nonsense.
One freeper's opinion.

I have a little problem with Bush's "at any price" statement. Our borders are still wide open, we're not deporting the millions of illegal aliens, our airline pilots are unarmed and law enforcement authorities are not allowed to "profile". I pray our nation doesn't lose several more thousands or hundreds of thousands of citizens before we start getting serious.

Hi Boris, I to am a monthly freeper but not everyone gets the message.
Unfortunatly, most people are users not payers.
If each registered freeper woud pay one dollar per quarter there would be no freepathon.
That's $4.00 per year, real chump change, yet most registered freepers don't even do that.
Some people need to be reminded again and again. Some need to be hit over the head before they "get it"
I am sorry this constant reminding bothers you, but knowing you are a classy guy, just ignore them, the reminders aren't meant for us.

Bush launched his war on terrorism Wow ! Good catch I missed that. That is an outrageous but not unexpected bit of editorializing on American Broadcasting's (ABC's) part.
Should we Freep them ?
To: VRWC_minion
I haven't seen Peter Jennings face for more than 2 seconds since 9/12/01/ and I know others less opininated than I who stopped watching then. Why freep a endangered species, let them go quietly by their own hand.
To: VRWC_minion
As far as the left-liberals are concerned, this is Bush's"war on terrorism" - note the possessive and the quotation marks. They don't believe in it and don't want their sophisticated friends in Europe and Baghdad to think they approve. Most Americans - the President's 80-odd% approval ratings - think this is America's war on terrorism, no snide quotation marks. But the defeatists will never stop questioning its legitimacy and trying to undermine it.

Well then, there's no need for me to donate again. After the last freepathon, I'm paid up for the next 25 years using your formula.
Thanks.

Those who have given their lives to defend our freedom will have died in vain if we do not pursue this to the end. We owe it to those noble warriors to continue this fight to the very end.

"This nation will defend ourselves and freedom at any price,"That ought to cause yet another bad case of Euro panty-bunching.

MN is the most left-wing state in the country.... Well, maybe, but I'd say MA is way out front on that. MN is more of populist state. In fact the Democratic Party there is called the Democrat Farm Labor Party, harking to it's roots. They are liberal, but not nearly so statist as many other places. Hubert Humphrey was from there, and he once said:
"Certainly one of the chief guarantees of freedom under any government, no matter how popular and respected, is the right of citizens to keep and bear arms. This is not to say that firearms should not be very carefully used, and that definite safety rules of precaution should not be taught and enforced. But the right of citizens to bear arms is just one more guarantee against arbitrary government, and one more safeguard against a tyranny which now appears remote in America, but which historically has proved to be always possible." Sen. Hubert Humphrey, Know Your Lawmakers, Guns Magazine, Page 4, Feb. 1960.
So those Democrat Farm Labor types aren't ALL bad.

yeah, if only it were happening, I would be paid up for the next 25 years too. But we are carrying the load.
