"Guts. Not 'intestinal fortitude,' GUTS."
I almost said "God bless his courageous soul" but changed it to "God rest and keep him." He was courageous. When you make your decisions based on the core fundamental issues of liberty, it's easy. To remain courageous and to sleep at night.
You are spot on.
Oh yeah how we go from the Gipper to the Terminator that everybody asking me at Brit site I surf on
So true. The following excerpts from the speech make me think it was a blessing that President Reagan wasn't cognizant of such things as the removal of the 10 Commandments from an Alabama courthouse, or the Los Angeles city council agreeing to remove the cross from its seal. Little did he realize his own prescience when he said these words in 1984...
"Once religion had been made vulnerable, a series of assaults were made in one court after another, on one issue after another. Cases were started to argue against tax-exempt status for churches. Suits were brought to abolish the words ``under God'' from the Pledge of Allegiance and to remove ``In God We Trust'' from public documents and from our currency.
Today there are those who are fighting to make sure voluntary prayer is not returned to the classrooms. And the frustrating thing for the great majority of Americans who support and understand the special importance of religion in the national life -- the frustrating thing is that those who are attacking religion claim they are doing it in the name of tolerance, freedom, and openmindedness. Question: Isn't the real truth that they are intolerant of religion? They refuse to tolerate its importance in our lives.
You know, if we look back through history to all those great civilizations, those great nations that rose up to even world dominance and then deteriorated, declined, and fell, we find they all had one thing in common. One of the significant forerunners of their fall was their turning away from their God or gods."

My dad was career military so I knew all about the commies whether I liked it or not!
I remember sitting in 9th grade literature class of all things, in ostentatious (but oh so enlightened) Glenview, Illinois (I lived on the base!), having to sit through that anti-Vietnam movie.. you know the one with the Paul Simon theme "Hearts and Bones?" I didn't even know half what I know now, but I knew instinctively that it was a big crock of you-know-what.
Oh, imagine if he had been cognizant and feisty during those things!
I used to listen to George and Ray Briem when they were KIEV. Are either of them broadcasting anymore? (I was out of CA for about 5 years, just got back a few months ago.)
To paraphrase Art Linkletter: "George says the darndest things." He does have a tendency, though, to go off on things he did and people he knew/knows. But given his age (as said above, sounds like everyone's grandpa) I guess I can be a bit lax on that LOL.
Hey even Catcher Mitt Mike Wallace gave props to Ronnie I give props to that I saw part of it
Then Andy Rooney ruin it
What a smunck
They were both actors but that's where it ends. Arnie's not a courageous stalwart of conservatism. Far from it!
Actually the radio station that carry Putnam no longer exist got bought out went Spanish language he is on some smaller city market station George
Don't ask me frequency I dont' know
Drudge said the spirit is still alive. He's right. And remember Ann Coulter said on these airwaves, America still produces those kinds of men. Thank God America still produces these kinds of men.
Yeah as far as I know he is on the air. I'll have to look it up. Anyone lurking out there with the info? I haven't listened in awhile but I got a ping a few months ago with an Internet stream.
Putnam is a good guy. Good like
John Wayne or Paul Harvey.
It sure doesn't seem like 20 years.
You know something else that struck me this weekend.. and this is probably a sore spot, or a bad thing to bring up. But it did occur to me and I only have one night a week to discuss stuff with you guys :), so here goes.
Nancy loved Ronnie and stood by him 'til death do they part. He knew things were going to get bad when he was diagnosed, and she and the family nursed him through the ordeal. My thoughts turned to Michael Schiavo.
We already knew he was scum. Maybe a judge in Florida will connect the dots, too. We can hope, anyway.
