Now that you have read the eight stages, pick the one we are in right now. I’ll pick #6. My TEAA’s are food for thought so that we may save our country. Those who have abandoned GW, are encouraging #7. Think about it. Then Richard’s communists will assure our bondage with #8. I urge you to fight it with all your moral might.

Changing gears; I want you to think about the damage a third party candidate in 2008 will do to us. Already people are saying either they won’t vote at all, or they will vote for an independent candidate. Both statements will cause the election of a Democrat — leaving this country in stage #7.

People are disgruntled about many issues that congress can’t settle on. Even though our economy has never been better, and unemployment has never been lower, the Demos via the liberal press have no programs of their own for the good of America, but they are very successful in bashing Bush’s poll points to smithereens.

And some people I once considered good friends are being fried in the Bush bashing pan. Shame on you. The following is the last paragraph I received from a TEAA reader. He had much to say prior to this paragraph. I’ll let your imagination figure it out:

YOU PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO SAY ARE THE REAL TRAITORS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ONE NATION UNDER GOD..MY NATION MY GOD..IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT GET THE HELL OUT.. I LOVE GOD AND I LOVE MY NATION UNDER GOD.. R. J.

R.J., you are the kind of patriot I would feel safe with in a Fox Hole when the bullets fly. I would not trust one single Republican defector, or someone who runs and hides when the going gets tough. I won’t trust anyone who abandons GW when he needs us.

We have an honest God loving president who is trying to do his best under terrible odds. And people who leave him ought to keep on running LIKE THE COWARDS YOU ARE. I have no respect for any of them.

Any wimp that wants to start a third party rebellion, is just a traitor when times get tough. I am going to stay with my Republican party and try my very best to enhance it and save it, not run and hide from it. Yes, I am angry and disappointed – darn tootin!

2. From spiritual faith to great courage — we need to get back to that, and we can survive another 200 years.

God bless America, God help us.

Enough for now, I’ll be back!

Don’t know if you have heard of this upcoming event or not. I have no idea of the amount of response this organization has received, but the more it is posted, the better chance it has of being successful.

National Day of protest April 17…enough!
Posted by D.A. King at 10:05 pm [Email the author] [Print This Article] [Email This Article]
A day without Americans – April 17, 2006!

In response to the recent mass national rallies fearlessly staged by the illegal alien lobby, The Dustin Inman Society is suggesting that Americans nationwide stay home from work and not spend any money on April 17. 2006 – income tax day.

The country and its government needs to witness a day without Americans.

It is not an overstatement to observe that the federal government has abandoned the American people and we teeter on the brink of national suicide.

The well-funded illegal alien lobby has been successful in galvanizing the millions of illegal aliens in the nation to march in American streets demanding no less than open borders, continued selective law enforcement and amnesty for people who should be in fear of apprehension and deportation.

It has also galvanized many Americans who are seeing for the first time the true nature and result of our intentionally unsecured borders.

Enough!

The message to the U. S. government and the world is that another amnesty for illegals is tantamount to erasing any pretense of a nation of secure borders, rule of law and a common language. Amnesty – by any name – does not stop illegal immigration.

We have reached the point in our national history at which we as a nation must choose whether to resist …or to wave the white flag of surrender.

We are suggesting that Americans who do not work in medical, law enforcement or emergency capacities stay home from work on April 17 and that we, as a united people, reply to the government that has refused to protect us by refraining from spending any money. Those who have nothing to fear from violating any law that is not beneficial to them are not the only group with power in these United States.

We are demanding that the American government offer the same protection in the United States that the Mexican government provides its people.

This is our country. We dishonor our grandfathers if we do not try to protect the republic that was lovingly passed on to us.

A national day of public opposition to illegal immigration April 17, 2006 !

I was not fully serious when I wrote “One Solution”, but call it 3/4ths serious. I don’t think the standard in the box thinking is going to work anymore.

Thanks for the kind comments. The issue of immigration/diversity reinforces in my mind that, to be a liberal, you must think in discrete, unconnected boxes. e.g. Policy A: America should not impose its culture on other countries because that is wrong. Other countries must keep their own cultures.
Policy B: America must allow other countries to impose their culture on America. To not allow that would be wrong.
Two contradictory positions which can only be held by not connecting them.
