What will they say when the dungeons are opened?

I love your signature, funny for a geek like me...

What will they say?

God Bless America . . . Hey, man, we were just, like, kidding. Land that I love. Stand beside her and . . . what's the rest of the song? Where's my flag?

Apologies to egomaniacal traitors are as foreign to Hollyweird elites as is morality and patriotism and worshipping anywhere else but in front of a mirror. They'll spin ever so eloquently like their hero Pee Wee Clinton and the media will soak it up with orgasmic glee. They're stars! They're stars!

It might've worked in times past but you guys, my fellow FReepers, have convinced a cynical old redneck that those who care the most do have a chance of righting wrongs.

I think they've do-do'ed in their own sandbox this time. With the internet and sites like Free Republic, us silent majority-types won't be in a forgiving mood.

Can you say Hanoi Jane? How about Saddam Sarandon? Or Baghdad Baldwin? Or Koran Kennedy? Or Sheryl Aziz? Or Tariq Garofalo? My fellow FReepers are much more creative than moi and I suspect we won't let the their actions be easily forgotten.

Sorry, guys. My error. Thought it would have been picked up on the proof. I've asked for a correction. Agreed, I should have caught it. But for what it's worth, I'm not trying "to make my living" by writing. Just trying to contribute to the debate.

No offense intended. I hope it doesn't detract from the main point of the essay.

FRegards.

BTW, this was originally a vanity post here on FR. It was not an essay for money or publication when it was written. I would hope that counts for something, at least, eh.

BTTT

[Tamzee]

I love YOUR tagline... says it all :-)

[Tamzee]

Mitch... YOU wrote this?? It is SOOOOO WONDERFUL!!!!!! Sorry... I'm awestruck. This is one of the best essays I've read about the situation and I for one appreciate your taking the time and energy to put it together. I've been waiting to hear someone say exactly what you did. I thought it WAS by a professional writer and pulled off a news site. I saved it to give to my folks to read and also email around to my friends, hope that is okay?

THANK you for posting this for us :-)

Excellent essay bump.

[freeasinbeer]

Hey, no offense taken! I think it is a great editorial, that is why I posted it! Kudos Mitchbert!!!

[freeasinbeer]

All credit must go to Sir Winston Churchill. This quote is originally his, shortened slightly to fit into the FR tagline.

FRegards!!

[mitchbert]

Thanks, Tamsey. You made my evening. Send around as you see fit, I trust your judgement :-)

Have a great week, eh!

[Tamzee]

Sorry, hope I didn't embarrass you... I was a tad crazed with admiration :-) You really should think about writing professionally, it sounds just like something Peggy Noonan would come up with.

Thanks again :-)

Sorry, Mitch. I was a little harsh. But I've started seing simple things like Loose and Lose confused on FR so much lately, well, I'm just on a short fuse!!! (And they're usually in threads bitching about the quality of Government Schools!!)

[mitchbert]

No probs :-)

Actually, it remains the one error I hate to make more than any other...must be careful.

Thanks, eh!
