Once more...and pray they understand.

You are imprisoned by your paranoia. What a rotten, fear-filled, miserable existence you live.

I invite you to lose your chains, crawl from the dungeon of your despair, and join the rest of us in the light who rejoice in the magnificent freedoms we enjoy in this great country.

How about this...

how about all of us keep ourselves from getting caught up in fervor, and rather than sit around and enjoy what few freedoms have been left to us, lets continue fighting for the ones we lose day after day. Isn't that what we are here to do?

And you are a cowardly twit Kevin.

I'll stand with Reagan and these words spoken by him:

Well, I think it's time we ask ourselves if we still know the freedoms that were intended for us by the Founding Fathers.

This idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except the sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election. Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.

You and I are told increasingly that we have to choose between a left or right, but I would like to suggest that there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down--up to man's age-old dream--the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order--or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism, and regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course.

In this vote-harvesting time, they use terms like the "Great Society," or, as we were told a few days ago by the President, we must accept a "greater government activity in the affairs of the people." But...the full power of centralized government--this was the very thing the Founding Fathers sought to minimize. They knew that governments don't control things. A government can't control the economy without controlling people. And they knew when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose..

Ronald Reagan, urging voters to support Barry Goldwater, addresses the nation in "A Time for Choosing," October 27, 1964.

I've been a member of The Republican Party for over 30 years here in Fla. I've worked on Jeb Bushs campaign and am in charge in transporting nursing home voters to the polls in a 3 county area for the RNC. I have a large extended family, many whom are not politically astute and who depend on me to advise them. It is arguable that my efforts produced more then the number of Republican votes for G.W. than he won Florida by. We barely won this election. Traitors like like you will insure that it will be the last election the GOP wins. You don't lose 30 year veterns and former YAF members and remain viable in conservative politics. Of course I know you hope to make up the difference with all the liberals such as yourself who will flock to the GOP filled with admiration for Big Daddy Government. Go suck an egg you dolt.
