Something Essential: Bill Whittle on "A terminal case of moral cowardice."

I keep asking: "What are you going to say when you find out that the name of the mosque in Arabic is: "Shrine of the 19 Martyrs'?"

I would like to believe that merely unelecting the democrats out of office will be part of the cure, but will there be enough of a desire to really stand up to the monsters on the part of the electorate? I'm getting more hopeful here. The other night, at work, a young lady, not the kind of girl who you would consider a political junkie or even up on the news...she likes game shows and 70s sitcoms...this young woman, when the subject of the Debris Field Mosque came up, jumped right in to the conversation, to my delightful surprise, and said everything I was going to say, but she beat me to it. She went on and on. If the evil is evident to this young lady, and she gets it, and gets angry about it....there is a lot of hope. God bless her.

Jewel:

What this young lady intuitively understands is that -- unlike what our "betters" think -- a civilized society is not required to neuter its citizens' most basic instincts.

A pièce de résistance, indeed! I have disseminated it widely and thank you for drawing my attention to it Gerard.

Gerard, I do not watch any television and haven't for years, but I do appreciate your posting this. Mr. Whittle elucidates far better than most.

I experienced Bill Whittle speak on the justification of the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
He is eloquent making his points as clearly and elegantly as any speaker I've seen!
So much is learned, so easily and in so short a time.

Preach it, Bill! He articulates, better than most of us, the necessity of not compromising with those who would kill us and keeping up our courage when our cowardly and morally bankrupt "leaders" attempt to flush this country down the tubes. The rot won't stop by throwing out all those with "D" after their names and replacing them with those that carry the "R", but it's a good first step.
