And to all a good night!
I have decided that the following requires my comment:
Support for VICTORY over all U.S. foes!
We are fighting those that wish to enter our homes and steal our very lives. We are fighting an onslaught here at home. They come daily...droves of them. They come with hands outstretched...demanding recognition...demanding their right to their share of a pie which they have not helped to create. They come here and steal from us while they demand a rightful...legal place in our society. They come here from around the world. They come because the world knows that regardless of other there is one country in this world that will help its neighbors even while its neighbors revile and insult. One country that will send its soldiers to defend others...while in return is the recipient of bile and disregard. They come because we are American. They come because being American has worth.
We are fighting those that wish to kill and destroy because of their desire to control as only tyrants control. Remember Hilter, remember Stalin. We have but to look across the seas to see the work of tyrants...China...North Korea...Cuba....Iran. Many are at work to kill and dominate because they have the opportunity...they have the capability. Many work for our destruction.
WE MUST NOT FALTER!
No triumph of peace is quite so great as the supreme triumphs of war. It may be that at some time in the dim future of our race the need for war will vanish; but that time is yet ages distant. As yet no nation can hold its place in the world, or can do any work really worth doing , unless it stands ready to guard its rights with an armed hand.
American politics are a kaleidoscope, and long before the next six years are out, the kaleidoscope is certain to have been many times shaken and some new men to have turned up. We stand on the threshold of a new century big with the fate of the mighty. It rests with us now to decide whether in the opening years of this new century we shall march to fresh triumphs or whether at the outset we shall cripple ourselves for the contest. Decisions are difficult because whatever is chosen will require a heavy price be paid. We (as Americans) will be required to make difficult decisions which will require payment regardless as to distaste.
We have but to look to our leaders to see the wrangling...the excuses...the double-talk...the search for instant gratification. The political machines are ever at work to maintain a perceived yet truly imaginary power. For if we are all dead, whom amongst us is truly the most powerful? Who is a leader? It would seem that he who has killed us is ultimately powerful..ultimately the leader regardless of clothing worn or weapon held.
Is America a weakling, to shrink from the work of great world-powers? No. This young giant of the West stands on a continent and clasps the crest of an ocean in either hand. Our nation, glorious in youth and strength, looks into the future with eager eyes and rejoices as a strong man to run a race.
I am of immigrant parents, who fulfilled all that was required to become a part of America. They left countries dominated by evil...dominated by tyrants and killers. They can communicate in English fluently. They are of good moral character with no problems relating to criminal activities. They have given allegiance to America. My family lost loved ones during past wars involving tyrants.
We are American because it is worth something more than a dollar sign. It is something worthy of fighting...defending.
WE MUST NOT FAIL!
Sincerely,
A concerned American Citizen
