These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.

Thomas Paine, The Crisis, 1776

Those words ring true today. Keep your chin up. We are fighting for ourselves and our children. And we are also fighting to keep alive the dream called America.

The Bush supporters do not understand the idea of America or they would turn on Bush in a heartbeat. Someone that holds an American citizen for three years, without contact with lawyers or family, is a threat to all of us. Who will be next to disappear?

Someone who endangers our safety by invading a Country that was no threat, violates the spirit of America. Someone who imperils our economy for the sake of ideology, is not our friend.

We owe it to Paine ... and to Jefferson, Madison, Washington and the rest of America's founders to stand and fight for the America we believe in - the rule of law and civil liberties - America, the shining beacon on the hill, held up as an example to the World. Stay strong.
