Dear Alberto: Thanks For The Memos
IBD ^ | October 5, 2007

War On Terror: Democrats are fuming over revelations that Alberto Gonzales' Justice Department issued memos ruling the CIA's tough interrogation techniques to be legal. Never have so many saved lives caused such anger.


A few weeks ago, congressional Democrats ran President Bush's top law enforcement officer and close adviser and friend out of town. There was no question of lawbreaking; they simply found it outrageous that an attorney general might actually operate in accord with the wishes of the president who appointed him.

Now, thanks to yet another spilling of government secrets pertaining to our struggle against terrorism from the New York Times, we can see that Alberto Gonzales was undeniably a big reason the U.S. homeland has not suffered a post-9/11 terrorist attack — not the villain some would depict him as, but a hero.

The information the U.S. extracted via the CIA terrorist detainee interrogation program has led directly to foiling plots aimed at slaughtering Americans here at home, in Pakistan and in eastern Africa.

Years ago (1970’s to be precise) I gave up considering Liberals as simply a different approach, or a tweaked perspective, or a different ideology from my own. I began to understand these people are contrary to the stated intentions of our Constitution, thus our God given rights, and the Freedoms the Constitution is intended to protect.

Since that time I have believed, and I think rightfully so that the Dems, Libs, Socialists...call ‘em what you will are in fact an enemy of this Nation. I believe since the 1990’s they have become aggressive enough in their approach to Governing by their Socialistic values that they have declared the Constitution null and void.

We need to look at this as them against us. Democrats haven’t any intent of continuing to work within the parameters set forth by our Founding Fathers.

True Conservatives in Congress, the few there are shouldn’t even pretend to try to work with the Commie Leftists now holding the reins with their fingertips, and we the people whom are the real bosses of the Circus should ensure those reins never come to full grip in the hands of those Leftists so intent upon destroying this Nation.

We need to flush the collection of Professional Political Lifers from Congress. They are out of touch with the real America.

unfortunately, there are enough traitorous, or very very stupid Americans to elect these Marxist traitors into power.

And once they are in, we can’t get them out, no matter how corrupt and traitorous they can be, because the whole system is corrupt, and won’t charge these enemies of the nation and constitution for their crimes and remove them from office and into jail cells.

How do we stop it? How do we purge government of all this corruption?
Voting doesn’t seem to work.

“unfortunately, there are enough traitorous, or very very stupid Americans to elect these Marxist traitors into power.”

Ill informed=MSM=Communications. We are under seige. When under seige by a hostile power communications are the priority target. Our communications have been in Leftist control for many a decade, thus my point about them against us. We are not only at war with terrorists, but the Dems, Libs, Socialists as well.

“And once they are in, we can’t get them out, no matter how corrupt and traitorous they can be, because the whole system is corrupt, and won’t charge these enemies of the nation and constitution for their crimes and remove them from office and into jail cells.”

Again it goes right back to the control of the Communications dominated by the Left. Without Conservative support achieved by the popular knowledge of truth, it is not possible to remove those from office whom practice such sleight of hand improprieties.

“How do we stop it? How do we purge government of all this corruption?
Voting doesn’t seem to work.”

Right back again to Communications. We could “flush the collection of Professional Political Lifers from Congress” were we able to gain popular knowledge of truth.

The answer is Patriots, Money, and Guts.
