Morty, Are you lis-en-ing?

To: The "Leaders" of the Republican Party

Subject: When are you going to stand up and fight for our country?

Republican-majority states are now designated "red" but it is the Democrat-won states that should be designated "red" for their socialist conversion. The GOP did not fight back when the Dems talked Tim Russert into switching the colors; PBS was the first liberal media lap-dog to change a Republican "blue" state win into red.  Such a simple thing. But an important psychological one; the Democrats' first step into controlling the GOP in every election since. Why didn’t the GOP fight back? Why don’t you fight back NOW?

When the liberal media insisted on tagging President G.W. Bush a "liar" why didn’t you stand up and defend him?

When Katie Couric started the liberal media attacks against your own vice presidential nominee, Governor Sarah Palin, why didn’t you defend her against all those horrible bullying tactics? Why didn’t you stand up and fight for her?

When the liberal media led by the Democrats unleashed the same bullying tactics against Meg Whitman, Carly Florina, Sharron Angle, Christine O’Donnell and Mia Love, why didn’t you defend them?  Now you see how the Dems have tagged you with a "war against women" and it’s too late to fight back on that one!

When John Roberts backed down and changed his stance for ObamaCare, why didn’t you call him out? Ask him what they had on him that made him change his mind so abruptly and firmly.  Why didn’t you fight back? Now look at the mess we’re stuck with – and it could well be too late to fight back.

Why don’t you fight back when the liberal media attack strong Republican voices like Senator Ted Cruz, Senator Rand Paul or Senator Mike Lee – oh, no, my mistake! It’s YOU who are attacking them; your own fierce, bright Republican leaders in the Senate! A Senate where your so-called "leader" Mitch McConnell doesn’t have the cajones to stand up and fight for anything!

Don’t you realize that if you allow Obama and Reid to turn our country into a one-party system we become a socialist State; a dictatorship? Don’t you think it’s time the Republican Party stood up and started fighting back? You had a fighter in Michael Steele who actually WON the House back from Pelosi for YOU! So what do YOU do? YOU fire him! Unbelievable. You should have fired everyone who lost the 2012 election and stuck us with 4 more years of Obama/Reid tyranny. Now you have milk-toast Reince Pribus – still! And the same old white boys in charge as "leaders" when what you need are leaders with backbone; leaders with fire in their bellies to win.

The days of Jeb Bush, Carl Rove, McConnell, Reince Preibus, John McCain and Lindsey Graham are over! Can’t you see that? When are you going to sweep OUT all the old RINO’s and get some fresh, young firebrands out there as your leaders – and back them up when the Dems and their media lap-dogs bully them!

Please. Take a stand for the founding principles of the United States of America. That’s the least you can do for your country. You’ve done so little in the past. The freedom of our Republic depends upon fresh, fiery leadership from the GOP.

Did Lincoln Omit "Under God" From his Speech?

Did Lincoln Omit "Under God" From the Gettysburg Address?
There’s an interesting debate surrounding whether Lincoln actually included "God" in the delivery of his "Gettysburg Address." In the Nicolay and Hay versions the two that preceded the event there is no mention of the Almighty. It wasn’t until the Everett version, which was produced after the address, that "under God" was added into the transcript. We will never truly know if Lincoln uttered the Lord’s name during the speech, as it was not recorded. However, based on the AP version of the
speech which was transcribed and published at the time  Lincoln did, indeed use those words during the delivery of his famous speech.

A look at the AP text, as published nearly 150 years ago, seems to provide the answer (see bold):
"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. [Applause] Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a general battle-field of that war; we are met to dedicate a portion of it as the final resting place of those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this, but in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. [Applause] The world will note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. [Applause]. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work that they have thus far so nobly carried on. [Applause]. It is rather for us here to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us, that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion. That we here highly resolve that the dead shall not have died in vain. [Applause] That the nation shall, under God, have a new birth of freedom, and that the Government of the people, by the people and for the people, shall not perish from the earth. [Long applause. Three cheers given for the President of the United States and the Governors of the States…."


 
Four of the versions mention God, two don't. Why do you think Obama chose one that did NOT mention GOD?

According to AP at the time of the Gettysburg address, President Lincoln did include the words "under God" in his  speech.  Obama chose to omit the God word. Why?
 

Read six different versions of the Gettysburg Address in their entirety.

Watch the video of Obama being Obama . . . still think he does not have Muslim leanings and can NOT bring himself to say GOD?

Veterans Day

Veterans Day is almost here again and we are still receiving body bags and wounded soldiers from the Middle East. I think it is time we put an end to this insanity.  There is nothing in all the Muslim world that is worth fighting for, and certainly not worth sacrificing any U.S. soldier's life for, yet we keep sending our young men and women into harms way for a people who will hate us forever, regardless of what we do for them. We are, to them, infidels and should be destroyed.  Now we won't get into statistics concerning our fallen warriors there because one site will show numbers that differ from other sites. All I can say is far too many of our young people have been maimed or killed already and it is time to bring them all home.  Let's put our fine soldiers to effective good use protecting our own borders and forget about other country's borders; let the Middle East Islamic countries fight among themselves; let's just leave them long to war among themselves as they have done for centuries.  I have never been involved in any antiwar movement in my long life, but now the hardworking taxpaying citizens of the USA must step up and speak out end this insanity, this destruction of our warriors, the pain and suffering of their families. What we must do now is fight for them; save our young people's lives; bring them ALL home. Our country is in such a mess now, we really can't worry about other countries. Our country is in a mess, our government in disarray, mired in economic disasters that need attention right now. e must all pull together to work hard to restore the values, the honor, the integrity, the freedoms so valiantly fought for and hard-won by Veterans of the past.  We will never be able to thank all our Veterans, both past and present, for their great sacrifices, but on this one day of the year we can honor them and make sure that they are not forgotten.  This Veterans Day please stop and thank a Veteran; may God bless them all.

Thank you all for your service
