I didn't do everything I could do... |
|
I meant to go and protest on the street in front of my Republican senator's local office. I didn't do it. Sheets of rain, you know, and a bum leg.
I didn't do it. I didn't do everything I could do to protect our liberty. I called and e-mailed, but I didn't do everything.
And so I'm as much to blame as any senator who chose personal interest over liberty.
And I didn't have the guts of my ancestors who chose to put their honor, their fortune, and their very lives at risk to provide this people with freedom from tyranny.
I chose comfort, and normalcy. I'm ashamed.

1. Frankly, your time was better spent on the phone |

You aren't ever gonna convince a horny hound to stop humping that leg. You will never convince a bird not to sing (unless you duct tape their beak shut). Your efforts working to convince the convinceable were a better use of effort, comfort aside.

we can still work our asses off to get Dem majorities in the House and Senate for '06 and '08.
Then, find a reason to impeach Roberts and Alito. :evilgrin:
