Peace is not a bumper sticker, tie dyed T-shirt or hand gesture. It is something which comes from the great sacrifice of the few so that many more can live better live in the future. But what would you know about sacrifice? I see who you are. Most of you are young, un-showered, un-disciplined, unemployed and overrated. It seems that the vast majority of you come from well off households and attend elite Universities. You hold anti corporate hostilities but wear the latest gear from Ambercrombie & Finch. Everything you have came from the system you rage against.

And speaking of peace, the song "Give Peace a Chance" never liberated an oppressed peoples. Nor was John Lennon a great diplomat who ever softened the hearts of Pol Pot, Saddam or KIm Jong-Il.

A guy after my own heart.

"I respect anyone with well thought-out
opinions, but I don't always agree with them. I firmly believe that we put ourselves at risk by not trying to understand the motivations of those who would harm us, and instead listen only to the justifications given by those advocating military action. I would never excuse the killing of innocents as a form of political speech (terrorism), but we dismiss out of hand their claims of legitimate grievances at our own peril. Even if we conclude they're not justified, we could end up being dead right."
This is an e-mail from my brother-in-law.


"Freedom has always come at the end of a warm, smoking gun. America's freedom, and subsequent Constitution, resulted from war as did the freedom of slaves. Most of Europe would speak German and reside as German satellite states if not for American guns. Bosnian Muslims, collectively, would have been relegated to fertilizer if not" for the guns of the US."
And this is from the article above.


How do I get this guy to understand what this is all about without getting emotional??

Great article. Wish all the traitors will be going on a vacation abroad, and they have to stay there - to enjoy the "freedoms" of the rest of the world. Would want to pray that those deceived characters are somehow thrown out of this land.

Pinging the NC crowd.
This has nothing to do with NC, but it's such a spot-on article I had to share it.

When the Dungeon Doors Swing Open...

Over the past few months I have noticed and noted a repeated question from FR members:

"What will they
( the appeasers, enablers, obstructionists and refusenicks of the Left )
do when the dungeon doors of Saddam's criminal regime swing open and the victims of his brutality pour out and tell their tales to a horrified world?"

Let's cull some links from our posts here:

You're a bunch of walking, second rate slogans without merit or shred of reality.

brilliant!

Very nicely written. It reminds us once again that the goals of the socialist are slavery, torture and murder. Any other claimed goals, ones that allegedly benefit the populace, are simply lies. Let's not forget how skilled at lying they are.
