So EternalVigilance, I take it you will be voting for Shirley Ringo in November?

You assume way too much.

All I've done is state the facts concerning the Congressman's history. Do you dispute them? Conservatives around the country deserve not to be sold a pig in a poke, don't you think?

"[I]t is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it."

-- Patrick Henry, 'Give me liberty or give me death' speech
