Unquestionably, it is uplifting to read a piece like this. I CHALLENGE YOU TO DO MORE THAN READ. Using this editorial as a checklist, make a list of concrete actions you will take in the next day, the next week, the next month. Write them down, and then perform the actions. Intentions are nothing. Deeds matter.

Your comment served as fodder for this Free Republic editorial. I even borrowed some of your words. Thank you.

Well written, Lazamataz.

I do my best to live honorably and install that ethos in my three sons.

It is disheartening to see so many others, some in my own extended family, give in to their realization that, in the current social climate, playing by the rules is for suckers.

It's nice to have someplace to come to read from like-minded folks.

I’m actually writing this to myself, as much as writing to anyone else. :)

Laz, you just inspired me. My adult daughter about to head back to school just read this too, and felt the same. That attitude is what we need in this country now. Thanks.

I can’t imagine any thinking conservative who could disagree with your essay, Laz.

Making it reality is not for the faint of heart, I fear, as we sink slowly into the ooze of socialism. But, making it a reality should not be taken as a futile endeavor.

Righting this ship will take bold action by many. Let’s start here, with your words.

Thank you.

A better outcome, I could never hope for.

Absolutely the best thing you have written.

Maybe there is hope for you yet...

Joanie, look at this piece of Laz.
As shineing a piece of rhetoric as one could
ask for in this troubled time.

It still drips with inspiration for those who can see the condensation.

I thought I had added a BTTT after quoting your line.

...wait a minute, I found it. It slipped off the desk and fell behind the chair.

BTTT
