"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty. "
JFK
Apparently. Democrats and liberals have forgotten this very powerful line. |

What a bunch of knuckleheads. Get your heads out of your asssses. As Lloyd Bentsen said to Dan Quayle:

Woodruff: Please, please, once again you are only taking time away from your own candidate.
Quayle: That was really uncalled for, Senator. (Shouts and applause)
Bentsen: You are the one that was making the comparison, Senator � and I'm one who knew him well. And frankly I think you are so far apart in the objectives you choose for your country that I did not think the comparison was well-taken. |

It's good to see regicide's obsession with Kennedy is alive and well this month. I did notice there was a full moon last night. A connection? |
