Brilliantly articulated. I am impressed. I was walking by the U.S. Courthouse on Trade St. in uptown Charlotte yesterday and saw about 10 women holding signs that said "Fight the Radical Right", and "NOW", and "Keep Abortion Legal". I stopped and listened to them for a few minutes. Then I said "What about the children?" And "I'm a conservative. Why do you want to fight me?"

One feminist whipped out her cell phone and screamed at me, "You can move along! I'll call the police!" I said -- "America is a free country. This is a U.S. Courthouse. I am a United States Air Force serviceman. I choose to stand right here and express an opinion. Do you wish to remove my right to disagree with your child slaughtering agenda?" I had to get back to work but as I walked away I said, "I may have to go to Afghanistan to fight terrorists. I don't agree with what you say, but I'll fight to the death to ensure that you have the freedom to say it." I couldn't help but notice the hatred in their eyes...

God bless you and protect you. I thank God for you and our military. My step-son is in the Navy, now back out to sea again, in an "undisclosed location," protecting us and the rest of the world from the terrorists. Of course, I don't know what he's doing. He's always in our prayers. And it's hard on his wife with their new baby, being left alone for weeks and weeks because of this war.
