Did Yo Hear What They Said? NEW YEAR'S EDITION

I know the New Year has already gotten under way, but I post things when I get the time to entertain you.

The Perspective is starting things off this year with another installment of its Signature Series:

And now for our MULTIPLE CHOICE Question:

I was sooooo wrong! Great post... In a democracy Citizens are more like partners with their leaders than followers of them. It is vital that we, as Citizens, listen to our leaders very carefully to distinguish them from our enemies. Because in a truly open society, our enemies are as free as we are. As we organize to increase our liberty and the liberty of others, our enemies organize to subvert our liberty and their own. Our enemy’s words are their true uniforms and their true arms. Our acute attention to their words is the only true mechanism we have to defend our liberty.

Please don’t misinterpret why I am writing these words. I am not calling John K. an enemy however your multiple choice question did spark the thinking above. Let me explain further. Your question demonstrates that the most difficult of enemies or allies to detect are underlings who will say virtually anything to increase their power. What truly defines them as an enemy or ally is the system they so desperately want to represent. I imagine if John K. had become president in 04 he would have played the role of a semi-silent partner, would have shown little resistance to the anti-war crowd and in short order, undone all of the great progress being made by the Bush Administration in Iraq.

This is great post… and I am looking forward to more like it in the future.

"your multiple choice question did spark the thinking above."

First, thanks for taking the time to stop by.

Second, posting the "Did You Hear" series is one way I have of getting people to think. Your thoughts were orderly and quite precient.

Your responses are always welcome at the website, too. I have several liberals that visit and leave the mental equivalent of graphiti (sp?) in the comments section, and sometimes a Freeper or two will counter them.

Again, thanks for visiting and I'll keep you posted on further happenings.
