A HOUSEWIFE'S THOUGHTS!!!!
Before dawn this morning I awoke with a sense of impending doom and panic. At first I thought I had been awakened by a dream about my deceased father, but quickly realized that I was dreaming about a story that he told me many years ago.
During an interview in the early 1960's, Nikita Kruschev (of the old Soviet Union) told a reporter that the Russian army didn't need to attack the United States to bring it to it's knees. He said that America would be destroyed from within.
As a child I didn't understand the meaning of his statement and over the years I thought Kruschev meant that terrorists and illegal aliens would try to destroy our great nation by sneaking across our borders and physically attacking us on our own soil.
After 9/11 my notion was confirmed. But, I was wrong. The terrorists that brought down the World Trade Center towers managed to slaughter over 3,000 innocent Americans and people of other nationalities but they don't have the power to cripple our country. The subversants and uber-liberals convening in Boston this week have that ability.
In high school, as I studied and began to comprehend world events and history, I wondered how a despot like Adolf Hitler ever came to power. How did one wimpy, albeit schizophrenic, little guy whip up the crowds and turn rational, thinking human beings against their neighbors and supervise the massacre of millions of innocent people? I asked my father, a veteran of WWII, how this could have happened. He told me that he asked a German who had immigrated to this country after the war this same question. The elderly gentleman hung his head and admitted to my father, "We allowed him to corrupt our youth."
Very late last night on MSNBC Brian Williams narrated a program about John Kerry and his anti-Vietnam War activities in the 70's. Even though he has become a wrinkled, gray-haired 'respectable' United States inSenator, Kerry has never ceased to viciously swipe at the under belly of the American defenses - the military that protects his freedom to take those swipes. He has consistently voted against every bill that volved funding for the military and his record is even more liberal than that of Senator Hillary Clinton. The old hippie mentality has never waveredm, even though the wolf has disguised himself in the sheep's clothing of 3 piece suits and a millionaire lifestyle of mansions and yachts.
What I've never heard is John Kerry admitting that HIS Democratic cronies are the ones that got us in Vietnam in the first place. Like a spoiled, coddled child, he just expected Richard Nixon, our country's "parent" at the time, to get us out of the mess that his political party had gotten us into.
John Kerry is consistent in his climb toward a position of power to wreck as much havoc as possible on the American people.
After throwing away the medals he questionably 'earned' in Vietnam, he systematically acquired power by marrying and living off rich women but made his children illegitimate by annulling his marriage to their mother in order to achieve his goal. He supervised the dismantling and relocation overseas of his wife's factories which resulted in the loss of thousands of Americans' jobs while continuing to vote against all military spending bills that came up for a vote. Watching John Kerry play the electric guitar on stage at a recent Democratic fundraiser reminded me of the time Bill Clinton donned sunglasses and played the saxophone on MTV. Like Hitler, they both knew that the key to their success was to capture the vote and support of the youth of America.
We watched over 10 years ago as a famous celebrity/retired athlete was acquitted of two heinous murders that we ALL knew in our hearts he committed. The jury of his peers were dazzled by his fame and were conned by his slick lawyer's ultimate "stick it to you" race card maneuvering. We have all become so 'politically correct' that we've allowed celebrities to spout their ultra liberal views unchecked. We've allowed non-talents like Anna Nicole Smith, to waddle her way across the screen of the American television industry, and laugh as she watches her 18 year old son get drunk at her side.
We've raised an MTV generation of young people who truly believe the garbage that Michael Moore "documented" and haven't risen up in protest to question the media's codependency in this widespread propaganda.
Who am I? I am a housewife, a nobody, a lone voice asking the American people, "How long will we tolerate the ultraliberal media to elect another President, intent on weakening our defenses and shaming us in the eyes of the world? How long will we allow uneducated celebrities to denigrate and mock the very heartbeat of America's moral foundation?
How long will we allow the Michael Moores of this country to skew the truth and be praised and rewarded for it?
How long will it take for us to become tired, ashamed old Germans, hanging our heads in disbelief that the youth of our country became angry, damaging senior senators who brought about our destruction from within?"
I have no power. I have no influence. I know that George W. Bush is just one man who, like all of us, isn't perfect. But, I also know and believe in my heart that he's the only hope we have in November, the 'parent's' voice who can tell the spoiled, hedonistic 'children' of our country to shut their hypocritical mouths and quit working toward undermining our nation.
I'm asking you to forward this message to as many people as you dare risk insulting. I'm asking, "Will we wake up before Nikita Kruschev's prediction comes true?" -- Jan Morrow, daughter of a WWII veteran, sister of a Vietnam War veteran and the wife of a retired U.S. Air Force veteran!
I read something similar a couple elections ago, and Clinton got elected for the second time...we're still here, and it wasn't the end of the world....
Great letter...from one housewife to another....BUMP
Here but not the same.
you're wrong. i was just at my daughter's college campus last weekend. although located in the democratic state of washington, the bush signs equalled the kerry signs on dorms and houses around campus. and the strongest political party at her university, i am told, is the libertarian. as pete townsend once said: "the kids are alright."
I'm with ya on that.
My daughter is in college here. Her teacher talks Kerry. One day my daughter told her teacher that if she was going to talk about Kerry in class that she, (my daughter) could talk about Bush. What this election has to do with calculus is beyond me. Sorry, I digressed. Anyhow, she and her teacher took turns commenting on Kerry and Bush...Her teacher became very angry when my girl said that Bush will protect America and Kerry will ask for permission first.
Her teacher said that Kerry had an excellent plan to protect America, my girl told her if that were true that she (teacher) was the only one that knew about it.
From that day to this....they have not discussed any politics during class again.
Before dawn this morning I awoke with a sense of impending doom and panic.
Thanks for posting this. I've been wondering how the yelling, panicked housewife vote would break.
Security mom bump.
What a fine letter. Says a lot.
Thank you for your great and luminous letter ! There's no alternative : President Bush must win.

Our younger generations have been 'dumbed down' and don't question what's being told them. At least the hippies had the gumption to be involved (though their basis was wrong and what they stood for was anti-American). We need the same gumption among our conservatives in this country!
Women such as this are the heart and soul of America. They are the center around which the lives of American men revolve. It is for them that American men founded and built this country. And it is for them that they risk their lives, to protect them from the evil that again threatens us all.
It would have been if it was nukes instead of planes on 9/11.
Would have is very different than actually did...
3,000 people dead is enough damage, I think. I don't think America is in the mood for an encore.
