Elad Hakim – In 1838, Abraham Lincoln spoke before the Young Men’s Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois. There, Lincoln observed that “America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”
While Lincoln was talking about the dangers of slavery, his message also applies today. More particularly, congressional Democrats are so obsessed with defeating the president that they have lost touch with reality. Some of the proposed policies by those on the far left will serve to destroy the country from within by leaving the country more porous, more vulnerable, and in dire financial shape. For this reason, these far-left policies must be rejected.

The three-week period ends today.
Deana Chadwell – I am guilty of speaking badly of the new congresswoman from New York. She is obviously the product of failing educational systems unable to do anything but pump her full of fatuous self-esteem.

Alexandra Bruce – It’s funny how so many topics once deemed to be “Tinfoil Hat conspiracy theories” keep getting proven to be fact. Concern about Agenda 21, aka the United Nations’ plan for Sustainable Development is an example.
