The Count is On

One week to go. One week closer to a continuance of core values, of the straight and narrow, of the American way. One week closer to the beginning of a new, global America, absent of any moral qualms and foundation. As the seven days slip and rip themselves off the calendars around the nation, I can only sit, rather anxiously, and surround myself with the most politically charged, GOP propaganda I can find. Hey, I have to ease my mind somehow. Of course, you know where I stand. I wouldn't expect any of my readers to not know (then I wouldn't be doing my job, because, of course, it's my duty to share the correct approach with the rest of the world, who might not be so aware). Thankfully, because I'm such a trustworthy person, I'm taking for granted the fact that all of you loyal fans out there appreciate my viewpoints, and hopefully agree with them. If you don't, I don't really care - it's your loss. If I had the intention of being subtle and watered down, I'd probably take my altered work somewhere else, where I could please every pair of eyes that comes across my blog - unfortunately for the rest of the world, it's not going to happen. Take it or leave it, folks, this is what I think.

Yes, yes, the American tradition was born on dissent and differing opinions. Thank God fo- what? I'm not allowed to thank God? I have to thank Mohammed and Buddha and The wicked witch of the west, too? However, when the differing opinions contradict the American tradition, then we have ourselves a slight problem. John Kerry must not know the American tradition. Sure, he's a good ol' Catholic Boy. Yep, he was even an alter server back in the day. Good for him. He's also a wishy-washy "believer" who supports abortion on demand, although personally he believes life begins upon conception. You've heard it all before, friends, John Kerry has repeatedly stated that he doesn't want to impose his faith upon the American people, who might hold different values. What I continually fail to comprehend is how abortion has transformed into a religious issue. It's not - at all. Morality isn't in direct relation with Christianity or Islam - but pure human ethics. Maybe John Kerry means to say that without some sort of higher being all of us humans would be unscrupulous people who have no concept of right or wrong. Does anyone get that impression? I should hope so - he's certainly giving it. I ask John Kerry to explain to me why he involves religion in the issue of abortion. Explain to me, Senator Kerry, why atheists are some of the most fervent supporters of the pro-life movement. The Book of Kerry just doesn't add up. Apparently people with some sort of ethical code and moral stance outside of a church, mosque, of synagogue must be completely insane. God forbid that John Kerry use unreligious common sense to promote the fact that life, regardless of it's dependency on the mother, begins irrefutably upon conception. But John Kerry has decided to keep his Catholicism, which actually has no place at all in whatever he does, to himself - only bringing it up to show people how well he keeps it to himself. Political genius.

It's odd. Is John Kerry a social amoralite? Does he denigrate the things he obviously believes in (life at conception) because of the waves of political culture in America. Obviously. Kerry rides those waves with the 300 horsepower MasterCraft. That, my friends, is why Kerry is wrong for the job (President of the United States of America, that is). Not because he's a traitorous elite who hasn't the slightest inkling of the plights of the common man, but because of his total refusal to acknowledge what he believes in as truth. Obviously, someone with conviction will stand forthright if those believes are being oppressed. Obviously, Kerry doesn't have the confidence in his own positions, or the ability, to stand up and say that abortion is wrong. If John Kerry was a man of conviction, he'd be a republican. You know it's true. Republicans, such as George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, and myself, understand the values on which America was founded. We understand that Judeo-Christian principles had relevant bearing in the formation and operations of this country. But we also understand that religion isn't always required to make a just decision. Conviction, on the other hand, is. I don't need Jesus (sorry, Man) to tell me that abortion is wrong. Anything that involves splicing a baby's head and sucking the brains through a razor-edged vacuum doesn't require religion in order to make an appropriate judgment call. It does, unfortunately for you left-wing nuts out there, involve some courage. Of course it takes courage to stand up for what you believe in. It takes courage not to falter under the pressure of the constantly insane liberal barrages. However, it doesn't take courage to say you personally believe this but condone its social acceptance. That's not courage. That's gutlessness. It's not righteous to claim support for the woman's plight by endorsing a practice that unnatural to most wild beasts. It's simply unbelievable.

If John Kerry wants to slither his way into the hearts of the Catholic voters, he's probably done a good job. It's amazing how easily appeased we are by the fact that John Kerry's fancily crafted sentences and perpetually differentiating opinions all wind up to meaning one thing: pro-abortion. To be honest, there's no such thing as pro-choice. It just doesn't exist. If you don't support abortion, then you're against it - and you should stand up for that position. Unfortunately for the forty million would-be children, people haven't shown the gumption required to make a semi-ethical choice. Pro-choicers are people like John Kerry. God forbid they'd ever incriminate themselves into taking a firm stance on a matter that actually is one of life and death. They'd much rather take a stand by committing themselves to one solid position - and that position would be not taking a position. It frightens me how the liberal left are so dedicated to eradicating any judgment of fundamental right and wrong from the minds of common Americans. It's absolutely disgusting. As Pat Buchanan once said, liberals base their concepts of right and wrong off the agenda they're attempting to push. Abortion, which is ethically and fundamentally wrong, is liberally accepted because the woman's right to have her child slaughtered is endowed by the hand of God (or not) and written into the constitution. I have to wonder how long America can take such debunking of her codes of conduct, the respect we all once had.

President George W. Bush is the man for America. No question about it. America doesn't need to eliminate prayer from public schools, America doesn't need millions of children annihilated before the day of their births, America doesn't need a reason to look back at the old days and wish they were now. America needs hope. America needs reassurance that the founding principles of morality (with or without religion) and ethical behavior aren't being slandered by liberal demonstrators who wouldn't know right from wrong if it sliced their heads open and sucked their brains out. America needs help.

One week until November 2, 2004.

Are you voting for America?
