The liberation of an oppressed people, at long last, is a beautiful thing to see.

Not sure if this has previously been posted.

Alabama State Auditor Beth Chapman.
Attached is a copy of Mrs. Chapman's speech, which resulted
in five standing ovations, tremendous applause and an encore.
It's a short read and well worth it.

Stand Up for America Rally Speech
By: Beth Chapman

I'm here tonight because men and women of the United States military
have given their lives for my freedom. I am not here tonight because
Sheryl Crowe, Rosie O'Donnell, Martin Sheen, George Clooney,
Jane Fonda or Phil Donahue, sacrificed their lives for me.

If my memory serves me correctly, it was not movie stars or musicians,
but the United States Military who fought on the shores of Iwo Jima,
the jungles of Vietnam, and the beaches of Normandy. Tonight,
I say we should support the President of the United States and
the U.S. Military and tell the liberal, tree-hugging, Birkenstock-
wearing, hippy, tie-dyed liberals to go make their movies and
music and whine somewhere else.

After all, if they lived in Iraq, they wouldn't be allowed the freedom
of speech they're being given here today. Ironically, they would
be put to death at the hands of Sadam Husssein or Osama Bin
Laden. I want to know how the very people who are against
war because of the loss of life, can possibly be the same people
who are for abortion? They are the same people who are for
animal rights but against the rights of the unborn.
The movie stars say they want to go to Iraq and serve as
"human shields" for the Iraqis. I say let them buy a one-way
ticket and go.

No one likes war. I hate war! But the one thing I hate more
is the fact that this country has been forced into war-innocent
people have lost their lives - - and there but for the grace of
God, it could have been my brother, my husband, or even
worse my own son.

On December 7, 1941, there are no records of movie stars treading the
blazing waters of Pearl Harbor.

On September 11, 2001; there are no photos of movie stars standing
as "human shields" against the debris and falling bodies ascending from
the World Trade Center. There were only policemen and firemen - -
underpaid civil servants who gave their all with nothing expected in
return.

When the USS Cole was bombed, there were no movie stars guarding the
ship - - where were the human shields then?

If America's movie stars want to be human shields, let them shield the
gang-ridden streets of Los Angeles, or New York City, let them shield
the lives of the children of North Birmingham whose mothers lay them
down to sleep on the floor each night to shelter them from stray
bullets.

If they want to be human shields, I say let them shield the men and
women of honesty and integrity that epitomizes courage and embody the
spirit of freedom by wearing the proud uniforms of the United States
Military. Those are the people who have earned and deserve shielding!

Throughout the course of history, this country has remained free, not
because of movie stars and liberal activists, but because of brave men
and women who hated war too. However, they lay down their lives
so that we all may live in freedom. After all - "What greater love
hath no man, that he lay down his life for his friend," or in this
case a country.

We should give our military honor and acknowledgement and
not let their lives be in vain. If you want to see true human
shields, walk through Arlington Cemetery. There lie human
shields, heroes, and the BRAVE Americans who didn't get
on television and talk about being a human
shield - they were human shields.

I thank God tonight for freedom - - those who bought and paid for it
with their lives in the past - - those who will protect it in the
present and defend it in the future.

America has remained silent too long! God-fearing people have remained
silent too long!

We must lift our voices united in a humble prayer to God for guidance
and the strength and courage to sustain us throughout whatever the
future may hold.

After the tragic events of Sept. 11th, my then eleven -year-old
son said terrorism is a war against them and us and if you're
not one of us, then you're one of them.

So in closing tonight, let us be of one accord, let us stand
proud, and let us be the human shields of prayer, encouragement
and support for the President, our troops and their families
and our country.

May God bless America, the land of the free, the home of the brave and
the greatest country on the face of this earth!

definition of a good day: the Washington Post actually gives our rally a PRE-rally mention in its news article (like they do ALL the time for the lefitsts).

Anti-war protestors have been very bad today in DC: not a lot of them, but a lot of law-breaking. Police helicopter hovering over the White House area much of the day. No doubt the locals will read all about it in tomorrow morning's Washington Post, which will also include this sentence:

"As a counter-point, the D.C. chapter of the conservative group Free Republic is planning to hold a rally at the Lincoln Memorial at 1 p.m. to support the troops and the liberation of Iraq."

Amen.
