Patrick
Henry's Speech to the Virginia Assembly, March, 1775
As we contemplate our next move with Iraq, let us be reminded as
to who we are as a nation. We have faced this type of "awful"
decision before.
Let us recall the words of Patrick Henry who so eloquently spoke
to his colleagues addressing this question in their day. Imagine
references to Britain, and the pleadings to the crown, replaced
by references to Iraq and the pleadings of the UN. God Bless and
Keep America. Reader Dick Overton

Suppose President Bush is right, and there really
IS an Axis of Evil. We've become so fixated on the Evil parts that
we've forgotten to pay attention to the Axis itself. If you follow
its arc across the globe, you'll note that the axis of revolution
exits from Iraq into Iran, then passes through Turkmeni-, Uzbeki-
and all those other Stans, continues into China, transits Mongolia,
and then China again to terminate in North Korea. Somehow this Vector
of Venality manages to skirt the most notorious Stan, Afghanistan,
but that fools nobody. |
