America's Greens Rally to Flag, Run for Cover (Left in panic mode. Sierra Club drops ads)

What nonsense! Principles are never more important
than when it is inconvenient or dangerous to stand up for them.

   If we all felt that way, there would never be a
   coming together of the nation in an emergency.
  Some things are more important than others.
  A nation of clean rivers ruled by Ayatollahs
  isn't the goal of anyone.

I love it when socialists go into meltdown mode.

    Me, too.  John Wayne should be here.

It isn't just the enviro-wackos either. Most bleeding heart
libs have suddenly become staunch flag waivers. If we didn't know
better, you'd think Chuckie Schumer was Atilla the Hun.

   Hmm.  Is only one side putting aside their differences?

Did you know the odds of being born an American are 1 in 20??? I feel very lucky lately to have met so many incredible Americans. People like Bin Laden will never understand our strength....OH, WELL!!!!

Good to see you both here today. I've been missing you while I took some time off from the 'puter to spend with my family.

God Bless America.

Just like cockroaches to run for cover when the lights go on.

Thanks soooo much for the ping, Tonk! I appreciate your call to this thread!

Larry, thanks for posting this! It just goes to show ya' that some good can come from this tragedy! (loved the "watermelons rolling off a truck..." posted above heheheh) ;o)

[Plummz]

I think that was all I saw about their reaction in the wake of the attacks. The memo came via a fairly closed intel channel and reposting the memo on the net could have gotten me cut out of the loop. . .

Hmmm...since GW has declared war on terrorist, does than include the eco-terrorist???????

[kcvl]

Are we now to expect the Club to endorse drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Reserve as necessary "for national security"?

NO, because they are too stupid to understand that.

[redrock]

"Today they are our leaders, today they've done well."

Today...they HAVE done well.

But,as Americans, is is our DUTY to keep watching them...and keeping them on the proper Constitutional Path.

redrock...in the wilds of Salt Lake City

Me too....never thought I'd see the day the elite left would be so easy to turn into a PATRIOT....how can we expect different, the terrorist hit the heart of the eastern elite...one minute they have the world by the tail the next minute......well we all have seen that....was quite horrifying....we all see how we truly have control of absolutely nothing....

IMHO, the libs have gone into stealth mode. To continue in their socialist/statist/globalist course at this time could mean damage to their financial base of support, and to having their collective asses handed to them. I believe with all my heart and all I've seen and know, that the libs will continue SOP while talking out of the side of their mouths.

I would certainly love to be wrong!

Guess so. Reading the lefty sites makes it clear this is all PR and they don't mean it. We'll take their help however even though we know they are lying pieces of socialist scum who are more interested in appearances than doing anything to help America. But maybe we can shame them into doing something.

But maybe we can shame them into doing something.

Wait until we actually do something to the ones
we are rounding up.  Watch 'em whip out the
candles, tears, and compassion.

[ladyinred]

LOL, they admit they have an agenda besides the environment! How nice that they say they won't bash Bush now. Wonder how long that will last?

[amom]

Hey there lady! Good to see you and your post really says it all.

We are a different country than we were at the beginning of the week. We are AMERICA. Once we get these evildoers taken out we can go back to fixen the other mess.

Bless you and your family. Hugs to all y'all.

Oh this is priceless! Worth a bookmark!

"It is hard to tell if the Sierra Club is doing the right thing or the politically expedient thing. "

It sounds like they're doing the politically expedient thing to me. Oh well, even if their motive isn't the best, it still brings about a positive result.

[G-Rated]

Read and bumped. Thanks for the ping.

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Try to find a "Democrat Consultant" on a cable talk show.

Unfortunately, some of the networks keep trotting out WAY too many former Clinton-ites.

[diotima]

Thanks Sweetie, I needed a good laugh. What fools....

BRAVO!
I am so glad that I had the chance to meet you in person.
YOU are a true Patriot!
PS I think the real reson we haven't seen you the last couple of days
is because you have been helping write speechs for the administration.
