Re: Something Wicked This Way Comes

I agree with you and cannot believe that we have come to this pass in our beloved country. When asked if there would be violence after the election, Elizabeth Edwards answered, "Not if we win." How come the news media did not go ballistic at this threat?

That nearly half the electorate is willing to vote for a traitor to our country, a man who suddenly talks religion with a "wink, wink" to his partisans, a man who chose as his running mate an ambulance chaser — Edwards sued a vaccine maker and dares to blame Bush for the shortage of flu vaccine.

That we have gone from acknowledging that homosexuals should not be persecuted to homosexual marriage in about two weeks time tells you something sick about our prevailing culture — if the offerings of TV shows did not already do that.

Finally, most of our free press is owned and operated by people who hate all that our country is and stands for; now they openly shill for Kerry and create bogus news stories to sway the electorate.

We are in serious trouble when an honorable and brilliant man, Alan Keyes, is derided as a lunatic and/or "would-be-Pope" by the Illinois press for arguing that we are making moral choices when we vote.
