There comes a time in history where it is important for a people to stand up and be counted. Now is such a time in the United States. We have a Republican party that has strayed from its foundation. It has become the party of big government. We have a Democrat party that is given over to leftest extremists that would sell us out to islamic terrorists in a nanosecond. What is a voter to do?
We cannot trust the Democrat party to do the right thing. If they get in charge, the country will be in for a very dangerous time period. They want us to cut and run from the War on Terror in Iraq. When we do that, the terrorists will make short work of the valient few left in Iraq. Then with a government to work with, they would start exporting terrorism to other countries, read the US. Bombs would start exploding all over the US. People would die by the thousands. They would die a few at a time, but the total would reach thousands in a few months. Other countries would cease to respect us and our commitments. We would become isolated from the world community. Our troops would have full-time jobs killiing terrorists everywhere. That everywhere would include within the United States.
That is a scenario that I do not wish on me or my family. I love my family. I do not wish them harm. I am voting Republican and any thinking person is also voting Republican this election season. Of course, not every voter thinks. Many voters just go and do what they are told. Those voters give us Democrat politicians. Democrats always suspect Republicans of telling voters what to do. That is what they do and they expect Republicans to do the same thing. They could not be farther from the truth. Republicans require their voters to actually think. That gets us in trouble from time to time, but in the long run is the best option.
I hope that more Republicans felt as I do. It would be gratifying to see a Republican groundswell in November. That would be great to see the Democrat pundits scratching their heads over their inability to talk the Republicans into sitting this election out. It would also be great to see the Democrat leaders in disarray over their inability to deliver on their promises of a Democrat sweep this November. That may be wishful thinking, but it is wishful thinking for the United States.
