Hi Lorne:

This jumped out at me.

Anyway, history teaches us that determined minorities always manage to impose themselves on reluctant and silent majorities.

As you may remember saying that the majority may not be too silent on this issue now and that speaking out is the way to freedom is what got me banned from Amein the muslims thread.

Also, we must not be fooled by those like IC who respects and applauds islam while saying Binny Boy and Sadist will be proven to not be prophets, but think it is blasphemous to suggest that mohammed(may he burn in the fires of hell for eternity) was just a sadistic pedophile cult leader. I suggested early on that our buddy ritchie was a false messenger as he pulls the same crap proclaiming to have an open mind and posting both sides. They speak with forked tongues and the usual deceitful arab doublespeak. Same as saudis foreign minister speaking on 60 minutes tonight saying they believe in Jesus and respect people of the book, including the Jews. I suppose that's why the koran says that the trees and rocks will speak to them telling them there is a Jew hiding behind it and to kill him.

Patience wears thin while waiting for golds summer doldrums, but I've held through the last two summers and been glad of it. Perhaps it's because of that I have waited for Bush, but I wish he'd understand that many in the countries he's trying to get onside could care less about their wimpy leaders and wish he'd just go it alone. Don't really think Createn would oppose him once he starts. Still can't believe it's been a year since America was attacked with no major offensive.

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, now conceals, now discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines on the stream.

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wiped out their foul footstep's pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave.

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
The conquest we must, when our cause it is just.


Regards

Bob
