Back to News / Home Page I want to take this opportunity to thank the Wasted Team.
That leads me to extend bouquets to Teddy Kennedy, Kofi Annan, Hillary Clinton, Tom Daschle, Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Streisand, Whoopi Goldberg, Dixie Chicks, Michael Moore, Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Ben Affleck, Barbara Boxer, John and Teresa Kerry, French, German, Russian political leadership, liberal denominational clerics, cowardly priests and ministers as well as the entire liberal press led by Dan Rather who contributed to the reelection of George W. Bush as well as the Iraqi Freedom Operation’s continuance to the Elections Weekend January 30 historic date.
Indeed your efforts will never be forgotten. Never. They are catalogued in our minds and historical annals. They are indelibly imprinted upon our convictions.
We have heard you. We have watched you. We have tolerated you. We have taken copious notes on your diatribes. We have filtered out your lies. We have read between your lines. We have discounted your grimaces. We have sidelined your unmannerliness.
And especially we have prayed for your sins accumulated in public: desecration of the holy sacrament, misuse of Scripture in public worship, opportunistic use of deity’s name, manipulative use of the American flag, anthem and other patriotic symbols, endorsement of killing womb babies, support for practicing homosexual lifestyles, speeches for destroying the traditional family and biblical morals, disregard for your genuine spiritual leaders, disdain for the American Judeo-Christian heritage, manipulation of the legislative process with filibustering, and other devilment activities intent on wiping out the American dream held dearly by most.
It was because of your ceaseless efforts that the American public — grassroots sprouters that we are — blossomed forth into real living impressive arching plants for democracy’s green growth splendor.
It was because of you making complete, without-doubt fools of yourselves in front of the global media that the expansive Red States panorama grabbed hold of truth and dignity, ethics and patriotism, to give our nation its proper position in its own conscience and before the world.
It was because of your ranting and sputtering, glowering and grousing that the positive, faith-filled, intelligent citizens stood in long, long lines to cast their individual ballots. You set us free from our complacency in order to engage as a voting army in that overwhelming November ballot cast.
We thank you for demarcating for us what we are not and what we never intend to be.
Further, we thank you for continuing with your harangue to this very present moment. Teddy Kennedy determines to set the example for you all. Even to the eve of the Iraqi elections weekend, the blinded Massachusetts Senator waved his arms, creased his forehead, clinched his fist, and manipulated a mouth contortion that unspeakably put forth his crazed lack of faith in the Iraqi populous. Shut down the polls. It’s all a hoax. The planet has fallen into disarray. Iraq is doomed. America is down the sink. The President will be committed while the American public will hide their faces in unspeakable shame.
We thank you, Mr. Kennedy, for making a first class donkey of yourself. Thank you repeatedly for living out the Democratic Party symbol — donkeys they have been, donkeys they are, and donkeys it appears they ever will be.
Of course, in street language, one can translate "donkey" in the local’s parlance. But however it’s said, the truth is that the Democrats are not willing to change, even as of last Sunday morning’s "Meet the Press" double-talk crippled forth by John F. Kerry. Consequently, we Red States thank you all so very, very much for keeping on keeping on the wasted path.
You have shown what we are not. What we never want to be. What we will determinedly see that we never fall into.
We will stand on our own convictions, regardless of what nonsense preached to us every night in the newscasts from mainstream media. We will carve out our own news channels for realistic reporting. We will stay with God, worship, prayer, faith and decency. We will defend those defenseless babies in female’s bodies. We will stand alongside couples struggling to keep the family together. We will applaud heterosexual couples’ wedding ceremonies. We will wave the flag and mean it with honest patriotism.
Yes, Teddy Kennedy and Crew, we thank you.
The Iraqis thank you.
Mr. Bush thanks you.
The Republican Party thanks you.
The sincere Christians and Jews thank you.
The US-led Coalition thanks you.
The soldiers who gave their lives for liberty’s advance thank you — as well as their committed families and friends.
The President and citizens of Afghanistan thank you.
The free unnamed citizenry of the globe thanks you.
Those still in political bondage yearning to be liberated thank you.
Our future American generations thank you.
By your dark shadows, we now know more fully what real light is. By your lies and deceit, we now honor truth more than ever. By your opportunism, we now regard integrity for all its worth. By your sin, we now commit ourselves unreservedly to the holiness of God Almighty. |
