Our cry should not be "O Woe is us!" but "Onward to VICTORY!"

Amen...and to that might I add "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance".

Extremists in the media (the Denver Post’s Reggie Rivers, the Rocky Mountain News’ Jason Salzman, the New York Times’ Tom Friedman, Paul Krugman and Maureen Dowd; Bill Moyers, Air America’s Al Franken, Michael Moore, Barbra Streisand, Tim Robbins, Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, Ed Asner, et al), politics (Howard Dean, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Rep. Barbara Boxer, Sen. Ted Kennedy, Sen. John Kerry, Sen. Robert Byrd, et al), and our collective societal commode (Ward Churchill, Louis Farrakhan, et al) are trying to dramatically change America as we know it. From their influential (upon many Americans suffering from muddy thinking) positions, such radicals fuel the flames of hate and discontent among those who are repulsed by the very idea of the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Fury, frustration and disbelief replace reason and respect when these types are forced to accept major political losses and when they realize most Americans disagree with their fanatical agendas. Their shrill fanaticism acts as an accelerant in creating an emotional inferno among the followers of such would-be tyrants, which increases the chances America falling while advancing the time line for our demise.

Air America: Failure (means nobody's listening unlike conservative talk radio)

Al Franken:Does anyone really take him seriously, come on

Michael Moore: Oh sure Hollywood loves him, but he is a coward who has been exposed as a phony.

Barbra Streisand: HA HA HA HA very important in her own mind

Robbins, Penn, Asner and Sarandon: Do these people convince anyone of anything? I doubt it.

Howard Dean:Complete fool of whom the Dems should be embarrassed .

Boxer and Feinstein: Hey California is freakin weird and weirdo's deserve representation in Washington too.

Kennedy and Byrd; One's a punch line and one's an ex-klansman, the loser party embraces them both.

John Kerry: The French looking Senator got his ass handed to him to the tune of 3-4 million voters.

Churchill and Farrakahn: Ones a fake Indian who the real Indians shun the other would fit right in with Byrd if he were white (or Byrd was black)

Citizens protecting their borders and not waiting for big brother to do it for them. New media which catches the lies of the old one and exposes them within hours.( Remember these lies have been going on unchallenged for 40 years until now). Politicians being challenged by voters within hours of their backstabbing. Political parties more beholden to the voter now than ever. Iraq is soon to become the strongest Arab country on earth and we will be their best friend.( That gives us the two strongest in the Middle East)

I say we got a long way to go before we leave this world.

What is the most likely to happen if America would have lost some of its territory, I would imagine Mexican immigrants flooding into the southern states, claiming it independent under referendum if possible, and to join Mexico. This is the negative aspects of immigrants. If DUmmies took over the country, let's hope in the next election, Republican party will win the election. USA may disappear from map if by any chance a new state was to be formed with Canada and Mexico and creating a new federation, but I imagine that is far from reality.

Debt, drugs, and poverty are also huge factors.

The Romans didn't think the empire would fall either.

I am sorry to say, but I don't think Americans are particulary courageous, and ceretainly not morally superior, or in good enough shape to fight.

The rats better hope the country doesn't fall. In a land with no laws they'll be the first to go.

Our enemies today are little crawling vermin compared to the monsters of the past.

In one respect you are correct. Our internal enemies, the liberals in government, academia, the media, and their RINO and neo-con comrades, are like termites. It is foolish to under-estimate the damage they are doing to our political, economic, and social foundations.

The Romans were on a bad position on the map. If they were isolated surrounded by seas like Japan back in that time, the kamikaze may have swept the Mongolia's fleets away. If the Romans were placed on America, probably they would have less chance being threaten by Mongolia. Too bad for them.

Your missing the point. It's the eneimies within and the complacency of the American people that will defeat us.

"we are all endowed with inalienable rights to life, liberty & property, regardless of how they originated."

And how did I contradict this? (I'm curious about your use of the word "however.")

Thanks for posting #31. I used to have that clipped out and in my wallet long ago. Don't know whatever happened to it.

You didn't; --- Chesterton did.

I was commenting on Chesterson's assumption that "dogma about the divine origin of man." is necessary for democracy. -- Could be, -- but I don't see that as needed in our Republic.

We*re setting the stage for Hillary. The Republicans don*t have a clue. They are bogged down in compassion and decency, but fail to see the real enemy. They are in control, but have no idea how to use it. Frist can*t. Delay should be the majority leader. We need hard ball leadership, but don*t have it. The liberals use this and will completely destroy this country, that is their goal.

If you are talking about dogma in the sense of a (specific) religious doctrine, I agree. I would indicate that the DOI, as our establishing document is predicated on a non-specific but absolute belief in an eternal creator to which all nature, humans and human institutions are subordinate. If rights are inalienable, they must also be eternal and immutable. The creator that bestows them must then, be likewise. It's inescapable. Take away "Creator," from the DOI and the remainder of the premise on which this nation was founded crumbles.

Once upon a time, there was a place called England. One day, it just vanished.

Damn! Same thing happened to China, after a few thousand years. We better watch out.

Have been reading Allen Drury's Advice & Consent series for the past two weeks.

Those were good books, and were highly readable because indeed they were not inconceivable, but all too much like the daily Huntley-Brinkley Report. We had Frankly Unctious back then live and in color, just as we do today.
