1. Now he's taking a call from some true believer woman who thinks
Jr. is just trying to do good in the middle east.
I love the ones who call and are sobbing about how mean we are to Bush

6. This guy drank from the same kool aid as the others above

LTTE in the Springfield Republican this weekend


Bush's courage, wisdom shown in post-911 actions

This letter is written to back President Bush and not to bash him.

Because of his leadership we have not been attacked since the infamous attack of 9/11. He has espoused what America stands for; freedom, religious tolerance and individual liberty. President Bush has aggressively attacked those terrorists who wish to seek our demise. He has reinforced the troops in Iraq, just as we reinforced the troops during in World War II.
He knows that you do not negotiate with evil because evil always wins. We must defeat the terrorists in Iraq. They were able to do in 9/11 what the Nazis and the Japanese were unable to do in World War II. They (the terrorists) attacked New York City. As President Reagan used to say, "God bless America."

Hubby is having a slight attack of some sort. Not to worry, it happens everytime someone from our state government gets loose and is on the TEEVEE.

12. Can you say "D-R-A-F-T"? Since we have only 9,000 troops to send...
No matter what these folks say publicly, there is no doubt we are headed straight for a draft of massive proportions.

Think for a moment what we would have to do if there were another 'crisis' anywhere in the world? We would have no one to send, and no one at home to help in the event of a natural catastrophe.

THey did not spend millions to bring the draft boards up to full speed for nothing.
