Quote:Do you know what Borack Obama and JFK have in common??? Nothing yet![sly]Brody I agree 100%. I get so sick of the JFK - Obama comparisons, especially since a lot of their ideals are not even remotely similar.
Give me a Democrat who says words like these and that will be a Democrat I would be proud to say I support!!!!
"Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, citizens who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom."
"By calling attention to 'a well regulated militia,' the 'security' of the nation, and the right of each citizen 'to keep and bear arms,' our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the Second Amendment, will ever be a major danger to our nation, the Amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic civilian-military relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason I believe the Second Amendment will always be important."
"And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country."
