The New Hope & Change

“If you are going through hell, keep going.” -–  Winston Churchill
Despite putting up some great blogs, in my opinion, this month professionally it has been the worst in probably 20 years.
I was so stressed out I barely slept.
I can barely eat.
I have visions of foreclosure, bankruptcy and ruin, dancing in my dreams.
But I have had a good cry.
But I am not about to quit.
I may not win, but if I give it my all, then that at least is consolation.
But take nothing for granted.
I used to.
And that is what I would tell the Republicans right about now.
They are facing an enemy that goes by the rule of there are no rules.
The end justifies the means.
Winning is the only acceptable outcome. Morals and ethics mean nothing.
They are a hindrance.
For winning is power. And power is all that matters.
But the Republicans have also got to bring hope back.
The “Hope & Change” that was stolen from us by the Democrats.
And they can’t fail.
It’s a very high bar in a very partisan raptor-eat-piranha world.
The Mainstream Media is most definite NOT on your side.
So you are going to have to get to the people. Expecting the Mainstream Media to be anything else but totally in the tank for the Democrats is a mistake.
I still have to pick myself up. The Punches are going to still be coming.
Hell awaits.
But you just have to keep going.
Keep Believing.
Keep Hope alive.
And for a devout pessimist like myself that is a tough task.
But it’s necessary.
It must be fought.
And to regain the soul of this country that has been invaded by the terminal cancer of Liberal socialism, it’s a tough disease to fight.
But if you don’t all hope is lost.
The Country is the Titanic, she’s hit an iceberg of cold socialism, the question is will she sink?
That is the question.
And the vote on November 2nd by you and me determines that.
No equivocation. This is do or die for Old Glory.
Are we a nation of innovations and rugged individualists and idealists or are we a country that says all I want is the spoils but none of pain or responsibility for it.
Gimme….Gimme…Gimme
What’s mine is mine and what’s your is also mine because I deserve it!
Do you earn it or are you entitled to it?
Is the spoils of others’ labors superior to the spoils of your own?
Is it all about you?
Are you center of your own universe and everything MUST spin around you and do your bidding and if it doesn’t you are entitled to it anyhow.
Because it’s only “fair”.
Or are you Galileo who dares to be the heretic against the tidal wave of political correctness, fear, and division.
We are in the midst of a great Un-Civil War and one of the greatest speechs in the history of mankind is very approriate at this time.

The Gettysburg Address By Abraham Lincoln  (Modernized)
Eleven score and fourteen years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal regardless of differences.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. The politically correct wolves are at the door and their teeth are bared.
We are met here on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of it as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
The Voting Booth. That most hallowed of ground.

But in a larger sense we can not dedicate – we can not consecrate – we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled, here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but can never forget what they did here.
November 2, 2010.

It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have, thus far, so nobly carried on. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation shall have a new birth of freedom; and that this government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. 

AMEN!
