#1 Note to the Transnationals/Socialist - they're spelling in English. If Indians and Asians [the new Whites] can do it, why can't the rest of our new and old arrivals?

#2 "We don't do fear. Over the last 105 years in the saddle, we've seen wars, conflicts, depression, recession, resistance, and revolutions. But every time, this country has come out stronger than before. We've watched a thousand hand-wringing pundits disappear in our rearview mirror. Chrome and asphalt put distance between you and whatever the world can throw at you. Freedom and wind outlast hard times. And the rumble of an engine drowns out all the spin on the evening news. If 105 years have proved one thing, it's that fear sucks, and it doesn't last long. So screw it. Let's ride."

I love it! I'm making that my new motto.

(Well, except for the donorcycle part - I'll ride in my CRV, thankewverymuch. ;-p)

#3 That's why I have moved (in a lateral move!) from mil/political blogging, to writing historical novels. I was overtaken with this conviction that we needed to take back our history, to remember who we really are, to remember who our ancestors were, and were we came from, to recall again what they endured and overcame.

We need to take back our stories and ourselves.

(insert shameless personal plug here - my trilogy about the German immigrant settlements in the Texas Hill Country will be avilable in December, 2008 - from Booklocker.com and from another small POD publisher of western novels who has offered me assistance.)

We need to to remember who we are and where we came from. To claim our history back from the parasites who have taken over the telling of it, who have reduced it to the usual politically-correct Oprahfied garbage that it has become.
I have a feeling that in the next couple of years, this will be something that we will need very much. It is a matter of survival, to claim back our stories.

#4 A BIG AMEN to Sgt. Mom. That's one reason I am a Civil War reenactor. It's astounding the number of people who have no idea of our Country's foundations and what Freedom really means.
