I have some personal/family stuff going on and can't participate as I'd like to at the moment. Hopefully some of you can help me out and keep the store open until I can make it back. I'm seriously thinkg of starting a "Democrat Thuggery" blog to document the New Kristallnacht the left is creating here in America. Almost every day there's another Bush HQ breakin or act of vandalism. These people have a lot of gall throwing around words like "facist" and then condonining acts of physical intimidation. Oregon Democratic Party officials said they do not condone smashing the windows of Republican offices and discourage such acts. "But the fact is that the reason the Republican Party is feigning righteous indignation is because they don't want to talk about the 30,000 jobs lost and the 180,000 Oregonians who have lost health care," said Neel Pender, executive director of the state Democratic Party. http://www.oregonlive.com/campaigncentral/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1098446448156040.xml The bottom line is that if brownshirt thugs take over the White House, I tremble for the future of America. Call your local GOP today. Become a 72 hour volunteer. Tell them in particular that you'll be a poll watcher. We need people who will stand up to the voter intimidation they're already employing in Florida. Keep the faith. America is strong but she needs your help. I can't wear a uniform or stand a post, as so many are doing today to defend our freedoms, but I can help defend the same American principles here at home. Each of us can do no less.

Them watch this and tell me it's not the BigSoccer PoliForum: http://www.dailyrecycler.com/blog/2004/10/breakdown.html Then watch this clip (scroll past the first picture): http://www.dailyrecycler.com/blog/2004/10/swing-voter.html More: http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/lo...t23,0,3825651,print.story?coll=sfla-news-palm http://www.azdailysun.com/non_sec/nav_includes/story.cfm?storyID=96592 This is just the tip of the iceburg. We're all hearing adn reading this stuff every day. It's Kristallnacht, and we'd better wake up. These people are only getting more violent, more aggressive, and they will stop at nothing. The whole point about the Nazis was not them sitting around saying "Let's be evil". Rather, they said "We are right and we know we're right and so we're justified in whatever we do because the other guys don't get it and we're only saving our country"
Thanks to everyone for your many kind expressions. The surgery seems to have gone OK, and 24 hours post-op we can finally see some light at the end of the tunnel. It's been a tough ten days, and the thoughts and prayers of so many have meant so very much. Thanks.
