They accept lies as truth and call truth lies. <BR/><BR/>I predict: there will come a time when Americans will hunger for freedom, for the liberty that has been systematically stolen by the left. What freedoms? Ask yourself this, are you as free today as the day you were born? Then ask yourself why not? Then do something that will tend to restore your lost liberty, because once it's all gone, how will you then get it back?<BR/><BR/>Think FEMA, Homeland "Security", HMO, and every other assault on your freedoms. That's the battle that the left is winning, to the tune of HUNDREDS of new laws and regulations in the Federal Register every day. Almost every one of them reduces the degree of liberty you were born with, the liberty you were endowed with. Think on these things. And resist them, if you love liberty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475986.post-1133102330382369532005-11-27T09:38:00.000-05:002005-11-27T09:38:00.000-05:00Very good post.

They may tell you that the economy of the Soviet Union couldn't sustain their empire anymore, but more than likely, they will not be able to give you an answer. Some will even give credit to Gorbachev, as if he gave up his empire out of interest in Human Rights. <BR/><BR/>But, you will not hear them credit Reagan.<BR/><BR/>How do I know this? Because, just four years ago, I was a leftie myself. It took some major introspection, and re-examining of my long-held beliefs for me to be able to admit that Reagan was right, and that we did win the Cold War, and that pulling out of Viet Nam was one of the worst things we had ever done, and that Jimmy Carter was the worst President in U.S. History, and that many of my friends were anti-Semites.<BR/><BR/>Very hard to come to grips with all that. You lose a lot of friends, and you end up talking to people on the internet instead.<BR/><BR/>:)Pastoriushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03169561459129778670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475986.post-1133096280759596022005-11-27T07:58:00.000-05:002005-11-27T07:58:00.000-05:00As you know, in the summer and early autumn of 186...As you know, in the summer and early autumn of 1864, when it looked as he he would be defeated for re-election by the appeasing, slavery-condoning, peace-at-any-price George McClellan, President Abraham Lincoln instructed his cabinet that they would need to develop a strategy to win the war before Inauguration Day, in March. As it happened, thanks in large part to the absentee ballots of soldiers in the field whom the Democrat Party was unable at that time to disenfranchise, President Lincoln was re-elected. But the war was still won by the end of March, just as the strategy had demanded. (I wonder, however, if the election had gone the other way, if the morale of the troops would have been sufficient, or if the defeatism and near treason of McClellan and his party would not have dragged them down.)Gandalinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09196550750055246901noreply@blogger.com
