The Call To Arms

Every once in awhile, Rick Womble sends a gem across my desk. Here’s one of them inspired by Michael Moore’s propogandic “Fahrenheit 9-11”:

It’s time to take the gloves off and stop just talking about what this country was founded upon and stands for. It is time for conservatives and people with values to mobilize, contribute and work for those that best represent the original intent of this nation. If we set idly by and let the liberals take over this country with the likes of John Kerry, Hillary Clinton and Ted Kennedy, we have no to blame but ourselves.

We need to stop hiding behind the churches, ball diamonds, soccer fields and basketball courts and get involved. We need to engage the enemy and stop letting the enemy fire the first shot, then react with shock and astonishment at the ultimate results. We need to stop wringing our hands and put them to work for the cause of good, honor and integrity. We need the boldness and wisdom of Reagan, fearing no man or thing that stands against good, really to stand toe-to-toe with anyone that threatens the moral fabric of this nation and the freedoms gained by our forefathers.

In other words, it is time we stop just calling ourselves Americans and act one.

That’s a speech that should be delivered from the convention floor in September!
